"Co*umbi, S. C., jan. 22.-The
new dispensfry investigating commit-'
o appointed uOder the resolution of
nator Christensen, of the fo'mer t
mitted' whidh ha been probing
o things for the past two years,
s been organized for business with
enator Christensen as chairman nd
Representative Rucker as secretary,
which is natural, inasmuch as a ma
jority of the committee is anti-dig
pensary for the reason that the house,
being anti-dispensary two of the
members of that body were appointed
from the majol-ity faction, and one
r-epresenting each faction from the
senate. Messrs Christensen and
Rxcker are \both strong anti-dispei
sary advocates. The other hopse mem
bers of the committee are Messrs.
lichards and Carey, the* former -a
recognized dispensary leader, and the
latter seeing after the constitutional
fortifications of the dispensary bill,
for w.hich the anti-dispensary forces
are now generally lining up. The
new committee was made necessary
by the doubt as to whether the old
committee authority under the Blease
resolution of two sessions back' has
expired.
The new committee is appointed
for a special purpose and is to re
port back within ten days from the
passage 9f the resolution. This will
hold up All dispensary legislation un
til the latter part of this week, when
the report is expected. The commit
tee is to look into the changes brought
by Commissioner Tatum to the effect
that the present board has been over
stocking the dispensary with great
quantities of unsaleable goods in
violation of law and against the com
missioners advise and repeated pro
tests. The committee has decided to
do its investigating behind closed t
doors with even the newspaper men
excluded, so nothing definite will be
known of the committees work until
its report is handed in to the gener
al assembly. In the meantime the
dispensary battle at the capitol will
be postponed, with a general skir
mish line thrown out by both sides.
Outside of this incident there has
been nothing of striking importance
done by either branch of the law
imaking body though some good steady
- work has been done in each house
'and perhaps not a little effective
work has been done on the streets, in
the committee rooms, in the hotel
lobbies and elsewhere on the quiet.
In fact it is in these places that the
real work of the session goes on.
The Frost resolution calling for an
inter-session joint committee to in
vestigale va-rious phases'of the rail
road problem as it affeets this state
is on top, as it were, for discussion
in the house next week, being put on
the ''continuous'' ordeir of the (lay.
It is expected that the result will be
a suspension01 of rafilr'oad leislationi
otherwise. And in ease the Frost res
olution pases it is logicanl to presume
that no railroad legislation will be
enacted this year-awaiting the re
port of the committee to be appoint
ed under the terms of resolut,in.
Outside of passing puriely local bills
--some too~ local for men tion-intro
ducing new bills and otherwise giving
vent t.o a. hot air spleen, the Senate
has done lititle since my~ last let ter.
There have b)een commit tee repor'ts
on some imp)ort ant measures, among
them a bill to amend the libel lawv so
as to make a correction of an error
at olffense in a libel snit--this bill be
ing inispired by two Charlehston cases
of note and notorietyv. TI'he report
was unfa vorable, and unless t he Gten
eral Assembly can be made to see the
matter in a different lig'ht it will be
killed. This is wvhere the politicians
even upon the newspap~ers a bit for
not telling on 'em wvhen they leave the
city.
Among the interesting discussions
of the p)ast week wvas that on the
gambling bill introduced in the sen
ate by Senator Chrouch. The senate
passed the bil however cutting out the
only thing which he contended for,
that of the imprisonment, which he
desired to be not less than sixty
days. The bill as passed, by the
Senate seeks the same law as former
ly with the exception that provision
giving -half the time to the informant
is eliminated, the argument being that
Ilegroes enticed others into gambling
with the end in view of getting half
the fine imposed.
The house passed an anti-coceine
bill,. Making the sale of the drug ii
misdmeaor,with a heavy penalty,
exetby proseription and under the
personal supervision of a physician.
Tbe house also passed Representative
Richards bill providing for, a prac
tise sehoole. at Winthrop 'college, The
bill carries an ap~iprprition of twen
thitbtsand dollars, but friends have

il,pased by the house is, the ani
unigrant bill increasingt the licen
