SENATE CHAMBER, Columbia, January 27th, 1908. I have to report that the legislature is travelling along under full sail with every rope stretched to its utmost, and after this week it will take day and night sessions to unload the very heavy calendars. The repeal of the lien law appears now to be a certainty: it has passed the House by a large majority and I believe the Senate will also put itself on record in favor of eliminating this law from the statute books. There are a number of Senators who are dubious of the wis dom of such legistlation, I among the number, but in my opinion the senti ment is so strong for the repeal that it will be done. The people demand it, that is to say, the landowners are mak ing the demand, but I fear they are de manding that which they will regret. I hope I am mistaken. The brain of the State is at work to devise a law which will meet the ob jections of both State and Federal courts -to agricultural labor contracts and a committee from the House has reported a bill,- the text of which I read on the train on my way home Sat urday night, and I have no hesitancy in giving it my opinion as a layman that if it is enacted into law it will not stand the scrutiny of a court. Its terms apply to all labor contracts, agricul tural or otherwise, and permits ad vances to be made, but the violation of the contract is a crime punishable by fine an i prsonment, and after con viction'the party convicted, upon pay -'ing the claim against him, is released from custody. The bill upon its face acknowledges advances made to be a debt, and for debt there is no crime. It also compounds crime by providing machinery to permit convicts to be re. lieved by the payment of debt. It will not pass and should not, because such a law woulc result in the most damnable blackmail. It is my judgment that ne labor contract law can stand the test of the courts which seeks to jail men for debt. The bill I have introduced, I am told, comes as near going between Judge Brawley's decision and the re cent decision of our State supreme court as any of the multiplicity of bills upon the subject and it is being used by the Senate judiciary committee as a basis for a bill it proposes to frame. I am satisfied there will be no revo. lutionary liquor legislation. The pres eat law will be tightened up in some particulars, but there will be no prohi bition bill adopted. There is not a day but what petitions are being sent up to the desks in both houses for prohibi tion, and in their zeal some of my pro hibition friends virtually "stuff the bal lot box" by signing. several petitions. I was looking over some of these peti tions and was amazed to find the name of a minister of the gospel who is an ac quaintance of mine, a college grad.se, and should be an honest man, yet he has signed more than one of these pro hibition petitions, and it is common t( find laymen doing the same. The cause of nrohibition should stand upon its moral merits and no element of fraud should, nor do I believe it will be tolerated by, the sincere leaders; but the political-prohibitionists5 will not only pad petitions, they will resort t( any means to accomplish their purposes and to promote their own selfish ends A nubrof ptitions have been sent to me from home and in each case ] have endorsed them with my name as introducing them by request. They are now a part of the Senate's records. The bill introduced by me proviamng for a license tax upon those solicitmna or receiving orders for ligalors contain ing alcohol, is now a third reading bil: in the Senate and by Tuesday it will have passed the Senate and be over ii the House. I was greatly pleased tc read in the Columbia State a letter frorm Mrs. Joseph Sprott, State presidento: the W. C. T. U., endorsing this bill, and I am sure her endorsement will in finence a number of members of the House to vote for it. The only danger the measure has of passmne lies in those liwyes in the legislature who represent foreign liquor houses. They may un dertake to create the impression that such a bill is an interference with the interstate commerce laws, but antici patmg them I will have printed and~ spread upon the desks of the members a decision of the United States Supreme court in the case of Jay Delamater vs. The State of South Dakota, which up holds such a law and which decision is the foundation of my bill. When it be comes a law the oily tongued whiskey drummers who cause so much money to go out of the State will have to graze in other pastures. J. A. Weinberg and Charlton Du Rant, Esqs., of the Manning bar, were in Columbia County Supervisor Mc Faddin was here on the United States jury. Mrs. F. C. Thomas and Miss Margie Appet came up Thursday and attend ethe "Yankee Tourist" at the opera house. General Stephen D. Lee addressedi the joint assembly Thursday noon, and Senator Tillman Thursday night. On account of an engagement with ladies, - reviously made, I did not hear the -bnator's speech, but the papers speak well of it, and the gene~ comment the next morning was that it was a thoughtful, conservative utterance, and directly opposite the views ex pressed by Senator Latimer in his speeches and writings on immigration. My other bills have all passed the Senate, and are over in the House, and will probably become laws the commg~ week. I may have several more hull to introduce; it depends upon the re sult of my investigations Monday when I will remain over at home to get in formation regarding the county's finan cal condition. The statement of in debtedness furnished the delegation shows a deficit, or hack indebtedness of $8,700, and I am at a loss to under stand why this should be. If upon in vestiation the county is nearly $9000 in arriars, it will be necessary to re lieve this condition at this session. In justice to the present board of commis sioners I will say, that about $3,300 o: this deficit came to them from a former administration in the shape of notes given to the Good Roads Machinery Company, and a $3,500 note due the State SiDking Fund for money borrow ed to pay court expenses, etc. I have received from Auditor Burgess a letter su esting a change in the system o' tslg tax rerurns. He suggestsa plan which I think has merit, but the Calendars are so heavily loaded it would be useless to undertake any leg islation on this line now. I should have had this matter in shape before coming here. The court house bill will get its final realnz tonight and be ratified about Thursday, and signed by the Governor Mr. SbarborougWs bill to aut-horize the trustees of Summerton school district, No. 22 of Clarendon county, to issue bonds for the purpose of finishing and equipping a school building at Sum merton in said school district, has had its third reading in the House, and comes over to the Senate tonight. The liquor drummer bill referred to in this correspondence, now on its third reading in the Senate, is as follows: A Bill to impose a License Tax Upon All Liquor Drummers and Persons who Solicit or Re ceive Orders or Offer for Sale Liquors or Bev erages Cor.tMning Alcohol. Be it enac, N by the General Assembly of the State of South Carolina. Section 1.

Sec. 3. That all provisions of law affecting old School District Number I are hereby re pealed. On account of its length I shall with hold the publication of the court house bill for the present, but will print it as soon as spee -permits, probably next week. The liquor scandals continue to hold interest, and the graft gang are trying to work up a sentiment against the attorney general because of his having employed Col. T. B. Felder~ of Atlanta, Ga., to assist him. They say "Lyon hogo to Georgia to get help, as thuhSouth Carolina did not have good lawyers," but such rot will fool nobody when it is known that the li quor erew have, in their relations with the winding up commission of the State dispensary, retained a large number of lawyers in Columbia and other cities, and some of these are also members of the legislature. who will probably fight the proposition of making an appropri ation to defray the Attorney.General's expenses in bringing to justice men who have robbed the State- To sensi ble men it matters not where the assis tance comes from, whether it comes from Geergia or South Carolina, but it so happens that Col. Felder is a South Carolinian, and is related to the Fel des of Clarendon I happen to know the man, although I have not seen him since coming here. He is an able, fearless lawyer, and will expose the names of members of the general -as sembly who attempt to use their rela tationi as attorneys ol these liquor con cerns to thwart the legislation neces sary to uphold Attorney General .yon's hands. Information has already been obtained, sufficient to place some men in a very undesirable attitude be fore the people, and if there is any further attempt made to "tamper with the jury," to defeat an appropriation to continue investigations and bring to justice the 'thieves, the newspaper reading will become mighty interest ingand the hypocrisy of some of our "patriots" will have its mask torn away, and they will be held up for the indignant derision and scorn of a trust ing and outraged people.

At a meeting ofthe Summrerton Bap tist church held this 26th day of Jan uary 1908 the following set of resolu tions were tinamimously adopted: Whereas, Rev. R. A. Sublett hasibeen a member of Summerton Baptist church for more than ten years past, ,and in that relationship and as a minister of the gospel, has, at all tImes, been con scentious and consistent in every way, rand has deported himself as ug erirucht, honest citizen of the communmty, cioir. rmuch for its advancemnent by his zeal and industry. j .o be G~ i reol eb this, the mem bersof Summerton Baptist church, in meeting assembled; that we have heard with exceeding regret the recent de cision of the civil case against our friend and brother, tried at the last term of court in this county. And in view of the wide notoriety given to the litigation against Rev. R. A. Sublett, we ask that these resolutions be pub lished in the News and Courier, The State, Baptist Courier and the Man ning Times, and a cop; of same be sent to Rev. R. A. Sublett. And in regard to the litigation re ferred to, we, with due respect to the constituted authorty, desire to put on record our convictions, that a grave error has been committed against Rev. R. A. Sublett and Mrs. Sublett, and we confidentIv believe that future events will bear us out in this belief. Be it resolved further, that we a a Church, and as membersof this Church, do beartily commend Rev. R. A. Sub lett to any community as an honest, upright citizen, worthy of respect and confidence.

RHUMA TIC FOLKS Are You Sure Your Kineys are Well? .any rheumatic attacks are due to uric acid in the blood. But the duty of the kidneys is to remove all uric acid from the blood. Its presence there shows the kidneys are inactive. Doa't dally with "uric acid solvents." You might go on tildoomsday with them, but until you cure the kidneys you will never get" well. Doan's Kidney Pills not only remove uric acid, but cure th~e kidneys and then all danger from uric acid is ended. Rupert B. Calvo, bookbinder, em ployed at The State Publishing Co., of ficial printers for the State of South Carolina, living at 1010 Lumber St., Columbia, S. C., says: I thought I had rheumatism and treated for it on that belief. I used all kinds of liniments. The pain was in my back and in .my hips clear to the shoulders. The hmn ments did nogood and I took to blood medicines but they did not help me, I took a long trip in hopes that the change of climate might help me. I was away for three months but could see no change for the better, I heard of Doan's Kidney Pills and determined to try them, and got a box at a drug store they completely removed the pains out of my back and I have not felt a touch of the old trouble since I used them."
