P'LBLIS5HED) EVR WEDNEiSDAY' 7V". .i" U4 111:'" ~ ir~s ondc C: - THE LEGISLATURE. This is the last week that the Legislature will be in session. It is scheduled to adjourn next Sat urdi, as the limited time of forty days with per diem will have about expired. It is to be hoped that the members will not dis g'race the State next Saturday night by keeping the hands of the clock turned back and run ning the session away into Sun day, possibly adjourning after day light Sunday morning, as has sometimnes been the case. Their work is not so important as to necessitalte such action, and were it so important they have had sutlicient time in which to do it before. We have already commented on the principal work of the session. but a running sketch of the greatest measures whien have comie up will not be a111i55. The appropriati) n of tifty thousand dollars to the Charles ton Exposition was passed. The child labor question was postponed until the next session. v.lhen it will come up in greater force than ever. The wide tire bill was postponed until the next session. which virtually mneans its death. The appropri aution of an extra 1+. + to pen sionlers in tihe Confederate war. making the a propriation c'.-'. U0U, passed the House by a large majority and the Senate will har-cdly have the nerve to kill it o1triglt. It lois as if it i: at least satfe to expect anlmrease of 50,to for pensions. as the Senate will pro)ba bly comnpro mise the amount. The Senate has killed the appropriaition of an extra 81Q).U( i for the p)ublic schools, and the State colleges will have to have their usual ap propriations. 1s thle mIost of them now have about as littie as they Canl aliford to run on. A good bill known as an insurance in spection bill was carried over to next session. as was also all leig islation on the convict leasing syst em And matter-s touching the county grovernment law. The di spensa ry was untouched, and the Congressional redistricting measure wvill conme upl agtain in full force next session. The House has passed a bill to permit the redemption within six months of lands sold for taxes and the Senate oughit to kill it. Graduates of the Char leston Medical College will be allowe d to practice without further ex amuination,. anid a bill to eleet count~y dispensers was killed. As effects us locally, the fee system of chargtes in tile Clerk's office is restored and a joint res olution has been introduced by M:'. Galluchat to inquire into the tinancial affairs of the county for ten years back. The general appropriation bill is largter than ever before in the State's history. and it looks as if the session has been a harmo nious one and. will end in gtood feelini. This is creditable. It was necessary under the constitution for theC session to meet and transauet all moutine business. Taken a!! in all we could see no0 nee~d of great radi cal legtislation.

"it is a good bill to kill." But it was not killed, it passed the Senate by a majority of two votes. not Wit hstanding the fact that the most pitiful and plead in g appeals were made to Ienhers to vote for the meas ure. and a strong lobby worked hard foi its passa .'. still with it all the hill got throuth ''by the skin of its teeth" and it is nIow uo to the governor where \:e hope it is removed from that sickly po\erty sentiment which citing to it durinu its passage. The wide tire bill was continiled over to the next session and leaves us with a breathing spell for at least one year milore. .' bill to prohibit Children inner 12 years of age from working in the fac tories was defeated in the House by a majority of about 2 to 1 and a similar bill caine ip afterwards in the Senate. I opposed its consideration and cup ported a proposition to continue it over to the next session. on the ground that it was a waste of time and money to take up the time of the Senate with a measure that the House had already indicated its opposition to: there was not a possibility of passin the bill. and further I am opposed to the legislature dictating what parents shall do with their children. It is such legislation which brings about labor troubles and the people intended to be helped are always the ones injured. Whenever South Carelina has in operation a con pulsor'y education law. then perhaps would a child labor law be effective. but without. it would be taking the children a.vay from making a living and forcing them into idleness. and thus add to the army of tramps. vag rants. and dissolute women. The ma jority in the Senate voted down the propositiou to continue, many of them had speeches to deliv r and deliver thhem they did. without regard to the cost to the peopie. The speeches on this one bill occupied three evenings. and some of the peeches were the bummest lot of rot I have ever listened at. but if the Sena tors who were inflated with all this wind had not been given the opportu nity to let it escape. something might have happened. "A Bill cotlstltiting a coImissioln to adjudicate the claim of the Receiver of ''The President. Direetors and ('ompa ny of the State Bank" to fund certain bonds of the State which have been lt or destroyed. was killed." These hotndls were issued before the war 1a as thie looks in the trlteaue Soliec show. have never been paid. be cause the itwners thereof have never been found. It appears that during the war thiey were stolen by Sherman's army and wer'e either destroyed or lost: oinly a part have been recovered. The bill prtovidedl for a judicial inquiry to to bie madl~e, and as amtendedi. before any athoitty to pay woutld have been given, aft er a jtudicial inquiry by a coimi sion1 compolsed oif circtuit jtmdges and the suitreme cout as the final sourcee. then the tindin:gs were to be reported balck to the legislature for its alpprovl The matter took a wide range of argument. sume contenmii that the statute oif ilmitaltins should apply. and others favor'ed the matter being investigated to ascertain wvhet her or not the State owed this money. SI) on the motion to strike out the enact ing wortds, whlich motion pirevailed I voted 'No."' 'Because I do not believe that Sotuth C.arotlina desires to repudiate any honest debt. and as tbe records show. the bonds have not been paid, the qjuestion arises to wvhom do these bonds belong. The amendments offered by Senators Livingston and rlowver make pr'ovision to have the bonds investigated byv judi cial inquiry as to the validity and own ership. and having full coniidence in otmr Courts. I believe that the intemrests of the taxpayers w(oukd be fully pr'o teeted against any fraudulent claims. This. I believe to be just to the State an~d to the people.''

If there is 1O ground for the suspicion the oflicial will pto t iy the investigation. if there is rood ground then the people will potit by it. The resolution comes over to the Senate tomorrow. and if it, can he reached in time will pass. When the appropriation bills get over in my department I am sorry to sav that there is a wide difference of opinion between the House members and myself --they favored and voted for the $200.000 pension and $100.00) free school appropriations and I will not. My reason is sim'i'y this: The veterans only ask for $~.000it. iwhich is $50.000 moie than they have ever received, and which amount I am willing they should have. Now to give them 821O.@ is simply giving more than the State is able to give without increasing the ta:: levy. I will vote for no measure which will increase the tax levy. We are paying a State levy of five mills and it is already too high. and to add addi tional taxes to give to politicians to dis tribute for political favor, will have no support from me. I am a strong advo cate of free schools. but f will vote against the $10J,00O appropriation, be cause this appropriation will not come out of the State treasury, but requires each county to make an addition to its levy, thus fooling the people into voting upon themselves more taxes, in the guise of ain appropriation. I regard it a hypocritical trick to fool the masses. It is like inviting a fellow to take a drink out of his own bottle and, in the language of Josh Ashley. "I am agin sich.'' If these fellows are in earnest to give more money to the free schools wly do they not make a direct State|I appropriation: It is all very well to tickle people with pretenses. but real ities are what they want, and all of this stage playing for political effect will amount to naught. I favor appropria tions for the needy soldier, he should have it. but I am teetotally opposed to the manner in which the fund is dis tributed. 'Many who are indeed worthy do not get one cent, and many who are not eligible get the money. The in creasing of the appropriation means adding more money to favorites and does not provide for the bringing in of . those who have been kept out. If the appropriations are not changed by the Senate then look out for an increased State lev of about 40 per cent, and I I do not h lieve the people wand to have State ta.< raised.
