These extra terms of court Ifor and special judges bob up with stre striking frequency.- since we hare established twelve circuits h with twelve regular judges, 1the while we hardly ever had one Ban when when we had only eigrht bar: circuits and eight judges. Why is this thus? Th CAPITOL CORRESPONDENCE- h CoLUxxst S.

There has been L iing done in the past week u ch I regard of general im- 0 tance, in fact, aside from the g I legislation nothing has been y e which is interesting. he appropriation bill is now c le finance committee of the (. ate-. and notwitiistaniind r it is largzest budt the State has is r carried, the majurity of the v ittee is not disposed to cut a for ore. I have protested a ist a. m::ner of items in the V but my objections were over- i d by the majority. and those a us who insist upon cuttintu r se items will have to carry a objections to the ,loor where hope to secure soine conces- c is. I am tQmost sure that t vernor Blease will veto sev- I 1 items in the appropriation C if he carries out his platform, [I think he is the kind of a ai who will do just what he mised on the stump, and when e does, his action will meet with a hearty approval of the masses t n sure. The tax question is a that is giving the people t at concern. and unless there halt in these tremendous ap- t priations there will be a revo- t on in the State, one that will t k into insigniticance compared t h the revolution of 1-90.

The 1 endments are merely to admit rchester and Orangeburg coun- j into the measure, and some iial amendment to section -2 ich does not affect the general nciple of it, but before it can enrolled for ratification the1 t must come 'ack where it inated for these amendments be concurred in. I have re-I ed some letters regarding s measure. and in order that people may know just what provides for. I herewith re lish it as it finally passed both uses, and would suggest that1 a letter be preserved by those1 erested in the fishing laws: A BILL the Protectior. of Game Fish in 1 erkeley,Bamberg,Colleton.

SEc. 11. That this Act shall take ef et immediately on its passage and ap rovya by the Governor. I understand there is some criti-' ism of-my action in having Clar ndon exempted in the drainage wt. Well. I can not expect to ave everything I do to meet! rith tie unanimous approval, nd do not attempt to trim my ets to do so. I try my best to se sincere judgment and do what think the people ought to have one regardless of whether it ecets with approval or not. The rainage bill is a very long one. nd it was impossible to give it onsideration in its entirety. I herefore looked into some of its rovisions and reached the con u0sion they would not suit con itions here, or rather I had a oubt. and rather than to take ny chances I had Clarendon ex mpted in order to see how such . measure will work elsewhere rst. and then. it I come to the onclusion it is a good thing, and he people have need for such egislation it will be easy to amend he Act so as to let it operate in his county. There is no doubt hat drainage is a great thing, hat it not only improves the ands affected but it improves the tealth conditions as well. The >nly question with me is, are our ople ready for such legislation? It is a safe assertion that there ill be no general school legisla ion at this session, as the Bill ntroduced in accordance with the uggestions of the School Law ,ommission has been carried over o the next session, and the pro >osed amendment to the High school Act has been killed. I have been flooded with appli ations for the positic- of Notary ?ublie the past week, and in each ase I referred the applications o the governor with my endorse nent: owing to the hitch in get ,ing the law passed, there has een a little delay about getting >t the notices of appointments, >ut by now every applicant who s to be appointed will receive a ormal notice from the Secretary >f State, together with a blank >ath. Capt. D. J. Bradham who for nanv years was one of the trus ecs of the State Colored College Lt Orangeburg has resigned, and he general assembly unanimous elected Mr. E. Dudley Hodge or the position. I do not know vhether or not Mr. Hodge will Lccept. as he is one of the Board >f Registration: if he accepts the rusteeship he will have to give ip the other position. The posi ,ion of trustee of a college is a listinction which carries with it Ln honor only conferred to select nen and while this is a colored ollege, it is a State institution, m must be under the. guidance >f white trustees: they are the -epresentatives of the people of he State, and responsible for its inancial management. Mr.Hodge as always manifested an inter st in school matters, and I be eve he would make a first,-ciass rustee. The fact that he is from his county. he would have the .dvantage of the experience of apt. Bradham who was regard d by the educational authorities .s oe of the best trustees the istitution had. The selection of Jr. Hdge by the general assem ly is a high honor, especially as vwas unsought by him, but came o him as a surprise. have also had applications for he position of supervisor of reg tration, but will state, the comn issions of the incumbents do ot expire until next February, ne year hence. There will be o appointment for this place ntil next year, unless Mr. Hedge esigns. In that case the ap intee will be selected from the -estern part of the county. At resent there is one member of he board from Salem, another rom the Forreston neighbor ood, and Mr. Hedge from the 'ork; his successor, should he esign, will come from a section ot already represented. The delegateon has recoin iended to the governor for ap ointm ent as members of the ounty- board of commissioners. I-. W. M. Davis, of the Fork ection, Alcolu postoftice, and Ir. T. Brooks Mims of Pine. rood. Both of these gentlemen re good business men, and are uch interested in road develop 1ent. as well as the county's nancial affairs, they come from ections where the roads have1 ot had the attention they need. 'here is no complaint of the ad inistration of the former board ut it was thought best by the1 elegvation to get men from sec ions that have not been on he board lately, and, too, the sembers of the former board ad expressed a doubt of their1 erving again. The affairs of b board for the past year have ee as well ima-naged as5 any r-v ious board, and I hope the ew b)oard will do as well. A bill seeking to improve the 2ries was up for discussion this eck which makes practically a lean sweep of the exemptions took the position that school ~aahers. ministers and news aper mn should not be re ured to serve upon juries, butI u- senate took a different view nd included all three to be li be for jury duty. My reason r wishing newspaper men ex mupted was that by the nature i their business they are dis alied. for the reason thatj Ie are in a position to form an! pinion b)efore the case is tried: seek all the information they an get for their newspapers and naturally form opinions; school teachers too should be exempt for the reason that they fre quently are teaching alone, and in such a case service upon the jury would interfere with the school work, and the same reas on applies to preachers. There is a clamor to purify the jury. but in my opinion, the Act, if it becomes a law, will not make the juries any better, and the verv men the Bill seeks to put upon juries will be objected to nine times out of ten. If I should publish a full ac count of a crime that has been committed, the lawyers interest ed on the other side will certain ly not want me to sit in judg ment, and they, are right as it wouldbeunjust to their cliants. This letter is not as full as I usually write, and the reason is explained in the beginning, there is very little to write!about that has not been previously covered in my communications. How ever. I will soon be back at my post, and I shall then, from time to time discuss the various measures that have been enact ed into law. The mileage break bill has not found its way upon the statute books yet, and may not at this session for the reason that the railroad commission are opposed to the bill because it takes from that office its jurisdiction, and they are now working upon a scheme which will remedy some of the complaints that have been made along this line. I believe, however, tat the introduction of the bill has had a good effect and will result in some changes in freight rates whether the leg islature does anything or not, as the commission realizes that such action is demanded. Tbe mileage bill which passed the senate is in the house with a hard fight before it, if it is reached at all; the conductors have been up before the house committee urging the legislature to let the law alone, and I was told that traveling men also ob ject to the contemplated legis lation. It is my opinion the railroads will not put into effect mileage books to be pulled on the trains, they will take them ofl entire)y if the bill goes through as originally introduced. The bill to prevent the form ation of "ill shaped counties" has passed and it will have the effeci of putting a crimp upon those who are constantly agitating new counties, causing the tax payers a heavy expense for the gratification of a few persons who have political or financial interests to gratify. The Hey ward county proposition has cost the people of that sectior thousands of dollars without re suIts. 'The Rutledge county af fair has cost us much money for nothing, and the contemplated Beulah county will cost a whole lot of money before it is ended if the projectors insist upon their scheme. I voted for a bill to put the expense of new coun ties upon those who are further ing the scheme because 1 do not think it is fair to make the old counties pay for this sort of thing. I see where two new banks have been organized in Manning. I hope they will prove my con jecture wrong, but I cannot see how so many institutions in a limited area can possibly succeed. Both of these new institutions are well officered and they may see farther ahead than I can. I hope so.
