known what his inlitlation Is,
there sems to e o secretl a)bout t
attitude of Attorney Gen. Lyon, w!
believes that the evidence is suI
eient to justify Gov. Ansel in remo
inig the directors.
The question of jurisdiction w
raised by Mr. J. E. McDonald
Winnsboro, who appeared in beh
of Director Joe B. Wylie. At his en
nles, solicitation, Gov. Ansel grant
a hearing Tuesday at noon.
The adjournment of the legislatu
is not many days henee, and it
quite plrobable that the office will I
removed from the incumbents, wIetI
er or not the ineumbents are riiio
ed from ofilee.
The dispensary law with all of i
complexities anld raiifications
quite incomplete, indefinite and il
deeisive and there are many poin
which admit of double constructio
and a perversion of the intent of tI
Iw as well as other points which 4
neel defilnittly fix the responlsibilil
of olicals bevondl quibble.
it is on such technical points
tlese Ihat tle rig-ht of the govern1
to reiove is based. Of course thei
is nothin- much inl the position of d
rector itself, but the matter of r
moiral lor vause is a mat ter affee
di the homior ot the tdirectors and
is sipposed tihey do not wish to hav
heiir honor impeached. The positio
pays only A1P00t a year and to it. i
attached a great deal of work, worr
aid respoNibility, not to speak of ti
an nevance.
It is nlot stated that Mr. McDol
aid is dlele-ated as attorney for 1)

HOUSE DOUBTS ITSELF.
Members Want to See Whether C
Not They Have Been Bought by
The Ralroads.
Wlien tile house convened Fridv
niiglt, says the Colnbia correspom
eit of rihe News and Courier, ti
Carson resolution was pending. M
Hiarley moved to trike out the enae
ing words of the resolution.
Mr. Carson's resolution, whi(
was introduced dui1ring the afternool
is as follows:
''le it. resolved by the house
representatives, the senate coneu
ring, 'hlat a committee of six be al
itMntedh, (three of whom shall be a
poninteid by thle house andle three by il
senate) to inilplirIe anmd rep)ort bae

such restoluiitioen, whti ch seemed

thme miembilers. Tf the lawyers wl
irepreent't racilroads accept passes
oter areiest ioined. It is a erm
inal olffenice to aecept a pass while
logislator, and this resolution plae
the memb ers under suspicion of beil
criminals.
,Mr. Verner said1 he tlisagreed wi
Mr'. Harley. If any one thinks ai
one has a pass the best' way is to fil
. it out. lie had been on the railwa'
committee for six. years and in th
time had vocted for only two railroi
h ills, but if any One thought he had
pass, he wainted them to find out t
truth.
Mr. Hiemphmill said ho occupied
peculiar position. Hie had in the pa
I represented the Southern railwa

- Carolina antd not to the railroad, ai
-lhe had tried t.o be honest. This res

question. -
as Mr. Carson$ the author of t 4 eso
of lution, asid he had no ill ling
if against any one in introduoJ4, the
r resolution. There was talk of, graft.
d On all sides you hear of graft in this
oeiee and that office. It is ,gainst
re the law for legislators to ridp on pas
is ses. lie had nothing to say against
>e any railrvad lawyer who received a
Ii- pass as part of his pay. He accorded
v- himt, honesty, but the man not em
ployed bf a railroad, whether law

it- had not expected the resolution to be
