COUNTY GOVERNMENT UNCONSTITU*
TIONA!..
So much of it, at least, as pertains
to work i nir the public roads. So said
Judge Gage last Thursday in passing
upon appeal cases from Magistrate's
Court where the charges were, "lie
fusing to work the public roads."
And it thought hy many, some of
whom arc good lawyers, that the en
tire county government law is uncon
stitutional; that wo have no County
Boards of Commissioners in any
County in thc State, and that the new
road law, now before the Legislature,
which last week was passed by thc
J louse and .sent to the Senate-which
Act is designed to settle the question
of the unconstitutionality of the pres
ent law-will be inoperative in that its
provisions must be carried out by tho
Boards of County Commissioners
throughout the State, which do not
exist because of the unconstitutionali
ty of thc Act croating them.
By others it is thought that this
new road law now about to be enacted
by the Legislature will be unconstitu
tional in that it is intended to bo re
trospective in effect, in fixing "on or
by tho first day of March, 1902," for
the collection of tho commutation tax
due for the year 1901, when tho Act
now known to bc unconstitutional
created the dobt and provided for its
collection during tho year 1901. In
other words, it is thought that Section
7 of the new law is expost facto in
operation, and, therefore, unconstitu
tional. The bill was, however, care
fully prepared by a committee consist
ing of one representative from each
County and moy stand the test of thc
Courts.
Thc jury law unconstitutional and
the business of our Courts, both civil
and criminal, held up for moutliH and
until almost the last day, with the
jails full of prisoners awaiting speedy
trial and being fed by tho counties;
tho read law unconstitutional affording
an escape from working tho public
roads, or from paying commutation
tax; tho entire county govcrumont law
probably unconstitutional, leaving the
counties throughout tho Stato without
Boards of County Commissioners to
enforce tho provisions of tho new road
lawaboutto bo passed; tho now road law
possibly unconstitutional in ono of its
main- provisions; our drainage laws
pronounced unconstitutional by Judge
Gage last Thursday, is the deplorable
condition affairs aro in.
That our legislators should enact
laws in violation of tho plain mandates
of the constitution is surprising, when
it is known that every bill proposed is
drafted under the supervision of tho
learned Solicitors of thc State in tho
engrossing department, and who sit,
as it were, as an advisory board, in
easy reach of those offering amend
ments; and that when the bill is in
troduced, in either House, it is re
ferred to a committee selected because
of the special fitnoss of each member,
wticfi committeo reports "favorablo"
or "unfavorable" on the bill, and that
.when it passes both Houses, before it
lis ratified, it again passes under tho
supervision of tho learned Solicitors
when enrolled for ratification,
i This blundering in legislation is of
vital importance to thc people, both
in thc working of the legal machinery
and in the dollars it costs. Doing and
undoing of legislation takes time, and
'time, in this connection particularly,
means money. The unconstitutional
road law hinders the collection of
commutation taxes, interferes with
work ou tho public ror.ds and entails
litigation.
Lower taxation is really a dream,
as is adjournment of the Leg
islature before thc constitutional limi
tation, and the hope of biennial ses
sions is truly hope deferred and
makcth thc heart sick.
Thc Intelligencer bas received a
neat and interesting pi uiphlct of fifty
pages, containing an account of the
ceremonies at the unveiling of the
South Carolina monumoht on tho
Chickumauga battlefield, May, 27,

Tue French scientist who claims to
have invented a method by which one
may see by telephone may imagine
that ho is a benefactor of tho race.
But bc is not. The great joy of the
telcphoue as at present "obstructed is
that the speaker? e.i??o? see each
other. In social and domestic conver
sation, at least, this is an advantage
not to be lightly given up. To have
to arrange the scene to suit tho ex
cuse one is about to telephone an ex
pectant /hostess-ora waiting 'amily
for that matter-is to ask too much of
busy persono.
Thirty-seven men sat as guests in
P. A. IL Widener's marble palace at
Philadelphia one evening last week
whose combined wealth is placed at
?500,000,000; and the same day a fam
ily of poor people starved to death io
thc isamo city.
The census reports of thc cotton
seed industry shows that what was
formerly waste product is now almost
as great a source of wealth as thc
cotton itself. Thc industrial world is
learning thc value of utilizing so
called waste products and the latest
example comes from Germany where
sugar-beet tops, formerly worthless,
are now being artificially dried to form
a nutritive fond for cattle.
COLUMBIA LETTER.
What Oar Lau Makers are Doing at
the State Capitol.

/.VOMI Our thru Vorrcsjiontlcul.
du.i MT.i.v, S. c., Feb. 17.-Special :
With ?tue week more ol' its session be
fore it the (Mineral Assembly han yet a
number of bilis on tho two calendars, |
but it is probable that when the forty
days are up many ol* these will be left I
to die of neglect, for the bills unacted
on at this cession are done for. lint
the two houses have been steadily nt
work last week, and nearly every day
each of them has hold two sessions. At
this rate a great deal of legislation can
bo disposed of tho coming week, ana it
is possible for tho Legislature to get
through in timo for tho Governor and
his stuff to attend "Military Day" nt
tho Charleston Exposition on George
Washington's birthday.
The house passed tho appropriation
bill readily, and on Satnrdny took up
tho supply bills. Tho general supply
bul contains a rnasH of details, und
only a fow of local interest concern tho
general render. Hut the houso has
passed two important bills-nr. anti
trust law and n now road law.
THU ANTI-TKU8T LAW.
At ono timo it seemed possible that
there would be no legislation regard
ing trusts, despite the abundance of
agitation on that line, and. even now,
after the. house has passed a stringent
measure, its passage by the Semite is^
by no means assured. The bill which
has succeeded is the one introduced by
W. J. Johnson, of Fairfield, and is
modeled very closely after the celebra
ted "Ilogtf Law" of Texas. It forbids
any and all sorts of combinations of
corporations in restraint of trade and
competition or for the purpose of con
trolling prices and the output of pro
ducts, and provides heavy penalties
for violations. Individualsor corpora
tions responsible for violations are ba
uble to a forfeit of not less than ?200
nor more than so,000 for every offence,
and for every day of such offence,
while corporations violating tho Act
shall have their charters revoked and
bo forbidden to do business in tiiis
State. The law is broad enough in its
terms and is doubtless constitutional,
but whether it can bo made effective is
seriously doubted.
On tho other side of the Capitol tho
opposition to corporations is not so
strong as in tho house, and it was no
surprise when tho Senate rejected the
very radical resolutions of Senator
Graydon to repeal the charter of the
Virginia-Carolina Chemical Company
on tho ground that it is a trnst. Sena
tor Graydon made a strong light for
his proposition but was unsuccessful,
the vote standing 20 to 10 against the
resolution.
Another measure aimed, it Beems, at
tho same corporation was Senator May
iiehVs bill to establish a State fertil
izer factory, the idea being to utilize
the penitentiary convicts for mining
the phosphate belonging to the State
and for manufacturing it into commer
cial fertilizers or acid phosphate. The
debate on this measure was also rather
extended, but it was at length defeat
ed, the vote being "22 to 10.
THE KOA Ll LAW.
Tho bill passed by tho house provid
ing a new road law is one of tho most
important matters yet considered by
the General Assembly. It was deemed
necessary because tho present Act is
regarded as unconstitutional by reason
of tho fact that it includes "special
legislation" in tho shape of different
provisions for different Counties.
Tho bill leaves it to tho County Com
missioners to "lix u minimum and max
imum agc? for road duty, but in no case
shall it bo less than IS years or moro
than HO years," and the number of days
shall bo not less than three nor moro
than eight, ten hours being considered
a ?lay's work. Thc commutation tax
' shall be not less than $1 nor more
th au ?3, the amount to be regulated by
thc Hoard of County Commissioners
according to the necessity of their re
spective Counties," It is left to the
Commissioners1 discretion to employ
other labor or to utilize convicts, or
both, the commutation tax being avail
able for this purpose.
This bill was prepared by a commit
tee of one representative from each
I county appointed at thc last session.
lt has not yet been considered in the
senate.
lill: STATE LEVY.
Tim general supply bill Oxes the
Stat?; levy at live mills-the same as
last year-which is, of course, exclu
sive of the constitutional three mill
tax for thc support of tho common
schools. Reduction af taxation is a
dream of the demagogue not yet real
ized, oven when tho nmoutit and value
of taxable property, hm. so grc.'.Cy in
creased.
DOMKSTIC FOWLS.
The bill to include domestic fowls
under the provisions of the general
stock law met its death in a peculiar
way. Both houses passed it but the
senate amended itso as to include chick
ens. The house refused to agree and
the matter wns referred to a confer
ence committee and then to a free con
foroncc, which reported that thc;, h ?ul ;
ngreed to chungo tho words "domestic i
fowls" to "turkeys, geese, (lucks und |
guineas," which would leave chickens j
out. The Senate refused to accept thu :
report and this killed the bill-?1 meas- j
ure on which much time was spent.
Thc redistricting hill i? au important j
mons ut o that has gone through this i
week. Tho McGowan bill whick orig
inated in the House was on Tuesday
passed hy tho Senate with one amend
ment, but only ?liter considerable do
bate. Clarendon ks taken from tho
Seventh District and put in the First,
and the House agreed to the change.
Senator Cruber offered un amend
ment which would have materially
changed the First, Second and Seventh
Districts, but altera long ?lehnte tho
amendment wa? lost. Then Senator
Mayfield undertook to have KdgO?eld
and Saluda placed in separate Districts.
This brought forth a vigorous protest
from Senator Sheppard, who carried
his point and Kdgeiield and Saluda re
main hide hy side ni the Second Dis
trict. Thc hill arranges the congres
sional districts as follows:
t'irsl District-Charleston, Berkeley,
Colleton, Clarendon ami Dorchester.
Second District-Aiken, Hamberg,
Barnwell, I ?eau fort, Kdgeiield, Saluda
und Hampton.
Third District-Picketts, Ocouee, An
derson, Abbeville, (J roon wood and
Newberry.
Fourth District-Laurens, Spartan
burg, (J reen ville and Union.
Fifth District-Cherokee, Chester,
York, Fairfield, Kershaw and Chester
field and Lancaster.
Sixth District-Marlboro, Marion,
Horry, Darlington, Florence, Williams
burg and Georgetown.
Seventh District-Richland, Sumter,
Ornngeburg and Lexington.
BIENNIAL SESSIONS.
Senator timber's biennial sessions
proposition mot its doath in the Sen
ate, failing to receive a two-thirds
vote as required by tho constitution
for tho passago of a constitutional
amendment. There was little debate
and the voto stood:
For Biennial Sessions-Senators Ap
pelt, Barnwell, Blakeney, Caughinan,
Dean, Dennis, Gaines, Glenn, Grubor,
Henderson, Livingstone, Manning,
Kagsdale, Raynor, Sarratt, Sharpe,
Sheppard, Stackhouse, Walker, Wil

Against Biennial Sessions-Senators
Bowen, Douglass, Goodwin, Graydon,
Hay, Herndon, Hough, Hydrick, Ildcr
ton, Marshall, Maylield, Moore, Mower,
Stanland, Tal bi rd-15.
The Senate also killed Senator Hay's
bill to make it a misdemeanor to shoot
live pigeons for target practice.
Tuesday tho house took up tho ap
propriation bill and gave ? a second
reading with very little dispute as to
the several items. All the appropri
ations recommended by the ways and
means committee were granted oxcept
that asked for Winthrop, which was
placed at $r>0.0U0 instead of $60,000.
The absence of a light on the appro
priations is a feature of this session.
Tuesday ut tho Caldwell Hotel Rep
resentativo B. H. Thens, of Hampton,
died of pneumonia, and as soon as tho
! fact was mr .minced both houses ad
journed nut of respect. Mr. Thous was
a remarkably handsome man, quiet
and dignified, and a faithful legisla
tor. Suitable resolutions were adopt
ed in each house and n committee ap
pointed to attend tho funeral.
Tho lovy for Anderson County as
fixed by the House is as follows: Or
dinary county purposes, ii mills; past
indebtedness, 8-4 of n mill; indebted
ness on court house, 1-4 of a mill.
Total 4 mills. J. H.

Mrs. Peggy Simpson, widow of tho
late Wm. Simpson, died last Thursday
at her homo in the Corner. She was
about 00 years of age, and was always
blessed with good health, until a few
days prior to her death she took measles,
which terminated fatally. Her remains
wore interred at Cross Roads the fol
lowing day, of which church she had
been a consistent member for many
years.
Tho biggest snow of the season fell
last Friday night. It measured about
seven inches on un average.
Tho rabbits have seen a pretty hard
time. Many of them have been trap
ped.
Farm work is at a stand still, but our
Ecopie aro generally well up with their
iiBinoss.
It has been said by those that profess
to know that this is tho week to sow
spring oats, but Providence lins inter
vened. Also, that last Friday was tho
day to sow cabbage seed, but wo pre
sume that very few were put in the
ground.
Messrs. Clayton and Wade West, tho
former of the United States army and
the latter ol' Tampa, Fla., are on a few

community, will return with them.
Tho health of our people genoinlly is
good. Burke.

The oldest inhabitants say this 1? the
loiiRost spo'l of odd weather ever
known hore in February. For over two
weeks there has beon Ice evory day, and
on the Hth there was a 10 inch fall of
snow. It still covers tbo ground with its
mantle of whiteness, except a few Bpots
on the south hill ?ide, where the sun
beams of yesterday and to-day havo
melton1 it away. This snow, if I remem
ber rightly, came on tho anniversary of
tho big ?now storm of Feb/uary, 1899,
and ls very much Uko it in every respect.
Old farmers aay much snow is a presage
of a gond wheat orop. and WA eertalnly
have had nilton this winter.
Farm work will be retardod for a 'aw
du} H, except gnano hauling. Nothing,
no? even sleet or snow, stops that.
Fall sown oats have hoon killed out by
thu heavy freezes, and if not too late
when the soil gets dry enough much
?pring oat* will he sown.
