Interesting Xoles of What in Voine On at the Capitol or the Stale?; Prohibition?DeLa Howe. Ete. Columbia, S. C., Nov. 2S, 185*2. The Hdministration or "reform" element has ulieaily inaugurated the caucus system. To iin outsider tlie only apparent advantage that jail be gained by litis procedure Is the coherence ot relorin?the holding together of the idmlnistratloii members lor the purpose of staking them vote as a unit on admlulstraImi mon.nrn?Inr would be no noRRihlo ,-hance for the little handful of Conservatives rout thein on the floor of toe House or Senile. It does not seem at all reasonable that ,be elephant would gravely and solemnly mucus against the mouse. *" f rom this it would appear evident that the 'dominant element" does not Intend that here shall be any more "driftwood" in the .legislature. The proceedings of the caucus ;bow that they want to effectually guard ( iguinst the metamorphosis of any member , ulo a "green lizard" by the geulle and Insln- ( latlng "put on the back': of tbe terrible John /. Haskell. . i Friday nigbt a permanent caucus was or- j ;anized in the hall of the House. There were < (resent nlnety-tive reformers. The oritaniza- | Ion was completed by tbe election of Senator ohn H. Harrison,of Greenville, as chairman, | nd Representatives J. T. Duncan, of Newterry, and W. C. Wolte, of Orangebdrg, as < ecretarles. j It was decided that it should take sixty-six , otes to put auy motion Into effect. It was < ilso determined that tbe caucus should meet j t the call of tbe chairman when there was evasion to take action on any measure. The aucus will appoint committees to draft administration bills and to take charge of them >n tiie floor. Thus the work of the session fill be mapped out and the measures agreed 1 pon will be inshed through regardless ol all ! he tact and skill of Haskell and Smytbe. J TIT K APPOINTMENT OF COMMITTEES. < Tbe pasl week has been an average one and | herefore not a very busy one. A feature < port by of mention wan the fact that all the nmmittees were announced on tbe third day t' r be session. This unusual piece of work on he part of the Speaker was made possible by . eason ot the tact that the re-eltctlon of Mr. , ones was a foregone conclusion, and he was j bus enaoied to settle upou the greater por- ' Ion of the committees in advance. In the , enate Mr. Mag ill made tbe statement that ' be cominiitets had been agreed upon at an lniortuai conference" of tbe reiormers. OLD OFFICERS RE-ELECTED. ' The sentiment of tbe Legislature seemed to t e that all the old officers sbould be rein- t lated. Speaker Ira B. Jones, of Lancaster, | ras elected without opposition. The other louse officers were re-elected with these ex- ( eptlons: Mr. D. B. Peurlioy, of Edgefield, ras made reading clerk in place of Mr. Wll. orn who is now a member of the House. Mr. !e>rge R. Koester, who reported the State 1 tillvass jor lue rvegisier, whs maue jouruai lerk.* * In the Senate there were several applicants >r the position ol' reading clerk, but the mat;r wad decided Id cuucuh by the reformers, nd the redoubtable Cal Caugbman still holds Is place.
