S CAPITOL CORRESIONDENCL d Columbia, S. C. Jan. 16th, 1914. N The legislature for 1914 start- a ed its labors Tuesday at noon, t< Dr. Jos. H. Burgess of Summer- il ton was sworn in as the mem- g ber-elect to fill the unexpired s1 term of Hon. Harvey W. Mitch- s< um who resigned, to accept the h appointment of Dispensary Aud- U itor, and from which position p Mr. Mitchum resigned on the b 15th, (yesterday,) to take, as I ti am told by him,a position in the 'I dispensary service in Charles- E ton. t The first week of legislative l bodies is usually taken up with & getting- matters in shape for tl real work, but not so this tiae b in this State. The moment the c gavels fell in both Houses busi- tj ness was taken up, and disposed ti of as rapidly as a proper consid- v eration would permit. The elec. b tion of the Judges was accom- b plished much quicker than was expected, and this was a com- t] mendable piece of work. There b -remains the election of a State h Librarian, trustees for some of b the colleges, insurance commis sioner and penitentiary direc- t] tom, when these are out of the v way everything will be in com- I plete readiness to get down to s! -the consideration of laws.There h were a number of bills on the b cilendar left over from last ti year, an effort was made to have h -them all re-committed to their A respective committees. but those N interested would not have it so, b instead of saving time, in my a opinion, they will waste time by 5 not agreeing to the reference. v Because, when a measure has % bean hanging over twelve 7 months the members have lost o the reasons for and against it, b and are not prepared to act in t] teHigently, therefore, if the ar- p gument could be thrashed out lh before the committee, it'has the w effect of expediting the work. p Several of the hold-over bills were sent to the grave yard, h3 some of these may have been tl saved had their authors consent- xi ed to a re-commital, but as s) everything happens for the best, a it may be better so. Among the h3 bills that received it, in the place o: where the Indian maid wore the d beads, was Senator Patterson's $1 bill to require the teachers of o: the public-schools to have the n, Binet-Simons method of exami- p nation; do not ask me what is the Binet Simons method, no r: one seemed to know, not even si the author who is a doctor, ail s that he could make clear was the ti system is in the interest of it health, and it is in use in many ii of the city schools, but Senator- t4 Doctor Patterson was unable to ti ~convince the senate, and his bill la received the axe. ti About the most important bills ii acted upon this week was that si of Senator Laney's of Chester- ti field relating to the changing of fi school books. The preserit law h permits the changinig of the a school books every five years, ~ this has been-the cause of serious la complaint all over the State, and g, a heavy drain upon taxpayers, a especially the poorer taxpayers, i but according to the Laney bill the change in school text books si can only be made once in .ten a years, and then only with the c< consent of the general assembly. si If this bill becomes a law, the a changes in the books will be very tg infrequent. and many a dollar will be saved to the people. hi Notwithstanding the good pnr- a pose ofthe bill, it had ahard e fight to get it to a third reading. tr The senators from Darlington, M Union, and Orangeburg spoke in Se favoring of killing the proposi- st tion, but Senator Laney aided er by Senators Ackerman, and al Johnson and others, came to his .y aid and saved the bill. Of course is Ahis measure must run the gaunt- b' let of the other branch, if it gets qi through, and it is not vetoed, I thousands of dollars will be say- ai ed to aclass of people who have s, been complaining about the fre- ij quent changes in the school o books-.a There has been sent to me di from a citizen of Su mmerton bills i to be introduced, ordinarily. 1 e would introduce these "By Re- it quest," but after having had a e conference with members of the p delegation, and all agreeing they could not give these meas- be ures their support, I declined to w~ introduce them, even "By Re-m ills relate to landlord and ten nt, another to making it a mis emeanor to permit chickens or c ther poultry to run at large. a 'he former may have merit, but c cannot support it, the latter is t Atber trivial to burden a legis- t ture with, notwithstanding the I ict that many trivial matters ave found their way upon the i batate books of this State. Another citizen of Summerton z esires the Act permitting the 1 fanning graded school to charge s contingent fee, amended so as I ) include Summerton under sim- i ar provisions, but as Mr. Bur- i ess is from that section and E bould Inow the needs of that a -hool district, I will wait until r e has had an opportunity .:) tke the matter up with his peo- t le, should they want it, it will a e apleasure to give him all of 1 ie aid I can to get it through. I 'he last talk I had with Mr. t urgess on this subject created 6 ie impression on my mind I iere would be opposition to mending the present Act, but iere is a probability of a bill I eing introduced . which will bange the method of selecting .mstees for the Summerton dis- I iict, so they can be elected by a E ote of the patrons, instead of ( y appointment from the county oard. I will wait to hear. Mr. Burgess is fast learning I :e ropes of legislation and I i ave na doubt he will prove I imself to be a valuable member ( efore this session cioses. 1 Mr. Kennedy is contemplating ie introduction of a bill to pro ide for the issuing of bonds for I louglas and Sandy Grove tbwn- t hips for drainage purposes, in wet, he has had the bill drawn, 1 ut will withhold the introduc- I on of it until he returns from E ome as he wishes to consult J rith the people to be affected. ( fr. Kennedy showed me his t ill and I suggested that he C ake a provision in it for the c bmission of the question to a i ote of the people in the section i rhere the drainege is proposed. 'here is no doubt if the lowlands f Douglas and Sandy Grove can e drained it will mean much to ie enhancement of all of the f roperty, and it will reclaim r mds that are now practically I rorthless for agricultural pur- f oses.t Mr. White is on his job daily, e tells me that he has in view I ie introduction of a bill seek- 1 ig to hae the fertilizer in- I pections made more efficient e ud more general. He has not 1 ad his measure put in the shape r a bill yet, and is waiting to 4 iscuss it with the members of i ie committee on agriculture in eder to ascertain whether ora ot it will meet with their ap royal. c The delegation has agreed to 1 rise the salary of the countya ipervisor, which in gny opinion, sould be done. That officer's 4 me is largely taken up with I uportant matters, and by giv ig them his full personal at-a mtion he can and has saved to e taxpayers thousands of dot trs; if there ever was justifica on for the raising of a salary, , is in this case. The present' dary is $900 per year, out of us, the officer is compelled to arnish his own cenveyance, and e is almost .constantly on tbe yads. Other counties, not only ay their supervisor a much trger salary, but they also ~ irnish, either an automobile or horse and buggy at the coun r's expense. The delegation ~ ter meeting with the commis- I oners and going over the fiscal lairs to ascertain the financial yndition, reached the conclu- ~ on that it will be in the inter it of good service to increase ~ r ie salary of this office. Since reaching Columbia I ave been endeavoring to find a heme by which more money in be obtained for school dis- I ict No. 9, which is tbe district a anning is located in, without tcreasing the tax. The plan I ibmitted to the lawyers in the grossing department, while ~ l1 agree is all an ideal one, and E ould accomplish the purpose, in their opinion, prohibited ~ y the constitution, which a ires a uniform assessment, but C have not as yet abandoned it, 2d I have the promise of these olicitors to look further into it, they are still of their present 2inion, I shall endeavor to find other plan. The Manning ' strict needs more money, but cannot agree to raise the prop ty assessment higher to obtain ty , because this district's prop- ' -ty is already higher in pro- s >rtion to the rest of the county.h The matter of rural police will - a given consideration nextd eek. there are many who de- c and this system, personally I nOt faor it, bnt am r in a' epresentative. position, and my ersonal views cannot always obtain, therefore. if I can have Sbill drawn giving the county ommissioners permissory power o recommend this system, and he same time, limiting the work of the police to actual >olice duty without becoming lebt collectors. I am willing to ;ive the system a trial. There re some counties now asking or the repeal of the rural police ystem, it is because of the vast yower given to these officers, vho, in many instances are ithout the proper discretion to xercise such tremendous power, nd the counties seeking to be id of the police claim that un er these great powers there is auch opportunity for oppression .nd corruption. If Clarendon is o have the police I shall do my est to guard against the objec ions, and make the measure olely for the purpose of having ood order in the county, I hall never consent to a measure rhich gives to those officers nore authority than the sheriff ias, as is the case with most of he rural police bills on the )ooks now. I want our laws mforced, but I do not want to -stablish engines of oppression with official license. Mr. Ellison Capers has been iere for the past few days look ng after his interests in the natter of the race for Insurance 30mmissioner. Mr. 0. 0. Scar orough has also been here in dr. Capers' interests, but from what 1 can gather from the mem ers who will vote in this elec ion, it looks to me as if Mr. dcMaster, the incumbent has he inside track; the only chance or Mr. Capers lies in the trength that Mr. Hudgens of kderson will develop, if that andidate can get enough votes o keep McMaster from going in m the first ballot and there is a lead-lock, then Capers might wn, otherwise he will have to wait for another two years. A. EX-CONVICT is POLITICS. Al Jennings. ex-convict, re ormed bandit and train robber, low respected lawyer in Okla ioma City, will be a candidate or governor on the Democratic icket in Oirlahoma next year. is nearest friends assert that ie has only light hopes of win ing his fight, but he hopes to teep certain parties who "count d him out" for prosecuting at orney, from getting the plum. Jennings made a spectacular ~ampaign for prosecuting attor ey, using posters for himself in rison stripes, moving pictures ~nd oratory to win his hearers. n every speech he told of his ~rimes and then concluded with he remark: "I have told you of 11l of my crimes. Now let my ~pponents tell of theirs." The ~lection was close and Jennings ost by a few hundred votes. He sserts he was "counted out" by Sgang of 'earful politicians. Jennings spares no details in elling the history of his life. le was a lawyer by profession, he son of a judge in Arizona then a political feud made him u outlaw. He engaged in many un fights with the authorities, >articipated in many robberies, as finally captured after being rounded and sent to the peni ontiary in Ohio. There it is aid, he met Mark Hanna,, then t the height of his power, won he master - politician's friend hip, and finally obtained his ardon from prison. Jennings had been a lawyer efore he became an outlaw and eturned to Oklahoma to win his ray back to recognition as a itizen of the United States. hrough Jack Abernethy, a riend of President Roosevelt, te was restored to citizenship. ] A little while after he got his1 apers, Jennings began his fight .gainst the political gang in )klahoma. In the hope of re- 1 astating himself in the eyes of 1 he people he ran for prosecut 1 cg attorney on the reform tick t. Thousands heard him talk, aw the notorious bandit, and dmired his flow of oratory. He 4 ook the people by storm and] ame dangerously near winning -1 he office. In his campaign for governor ennngs will use moving pic ures of himself in prison, pos ars and any other devices that 1 1ay win him votes.

For a number of years there ias been a desire to get 3lemson from its present con irol and place it in the full con ;rol of the State, because of nonetary considerations the cheme was impracticable, but aow comes a wealthy member >f tbe Calhoun family who says If the full control is taken over by the State and the name :hanged to Calhoun College, in bonor the Great Tribune, it ould be the beneficiary of mil ions of dollars. It would not surprise us if, efore many years the name of bis institution complies with he wishes of the Calhoun fami y; we know there is a strong ;entiment to have the State Lnnul the contract under the 3lemson will, do away with the ife trustees, and assume full ,ontrol of the institution, and iow that there is a prospect of xenefitting in a financial way the novement will get stronger. 'he Greenville News carries the following story from Anderson: ."That Clemson College would eceive endowments aggregat .g many millions of dollars if ;he name of the institution is -hanged to Calhoun College and he college placed wholly under ;he control of the State of South Darolina, was the statement nad'e tonight by Capt. John C. Dalhoun, graadson of the South Darolina statesman and oldest representative oi the Calhoun amily, who is visiting here. He aid that such an arrangement ould be brought about by an innullment of the contract of he State accepting the Clemson equest by which the Fort Hiil property would revert to Mrs. Floride Lee Calhoun, wife of Andrew Pickens Calhoun, of an Antonio. Texas, the lawful heir of the late Thos. G. Clem 5on. She would. he said, deed he property back to the State )f South Carolina for a sum of monev sufficient to make the bransfer legal. He stated that money would be no object with Mrs. Calhoun, the heir, that she tnd all the family connection, would like to see the change of ame and control purely for sen iment sake and the institution's ood. Capt. Calhoun, who retired from active business some time ago, and who has since lived in [ondon and New York, says bhat he has known of seyeral instances where the college would have received large en owments but for the fact that the college bore the' name of nother than John C. Calhoun, lthough it was situated on" the D~alhoun home place, and be 3ause the college was controlled by a set of trustees represent ng an individual and not the State. He isclosely associated with the philanthropists of the east who re gving large sums for educa bion, and while he personally is ~iving to the education of poor bildren in the jmountains of ~he Carolinas, he knows that 1emson College would come mn or a large share of tbe endow ents. Capt. Calhoun states that he s here merely to visit his old 2me, that he does not care to tir up any big agitation for the :hanged name and government f the college but makes these tatements knowing that the :ollege and South Carolina would be greatly benefitted shereby." Dr. F. M. Dwight publishes a etter from Wedgefield urging he legislature to enact con tructive laws, but like other ~riters asking for constructive egislation he stresses only those aws which affect his interests the nedical profession. We agree wit~h ,he doctor that constructive laws hould be enacted but it is al nost impossible to do construc ,ive work as long as the demands pon the treasury continue to ~row larger and larger every ~ear. There must be a limit ~ome where, the State cannot ~stablish new institutions, and rovide for the many other mat ers demanded and keep the ax levy down to an unburden ome condition. Those making lemands upon the legislators ould not lose sight of the fact hat they cannot eat their cake mnd keep it too, all improve. nents cost money. To provide or the medical inspection of the chools, a tuberculosis hospital, ~uilding of more dormitories for. he colleges, and the many other hings demanded will require an ppropriation far in excess of ,ny yet made. FLY3H01NETANTAR MAN HIGHER UP GO3 FREE. A Richland County jury ac quited C. 1J. Hebert, head of the Seminole swindle. It took a long fight in the courts of Ten nessee, and the State was put to a considerable expense to bring Hebert to trial in South Caro lina, and, notwithstanding the fact that two South Carolinians were convicted and put in the penitentiary for their connec tion with the Seminole swindle, the man who is regarded the chief schemer was turnediloose. Garlington and Young the con victed victims are from Laurens county, they were paroled by the Governor after serving a part of the sentence, but both of them were not considered more than parties to the scheme which swindled so many people in this State; it is generally considered tfiat Hebert was the organizer and manipulator. or in other words, he is looked upon as "the man bigher up." He is supposed to have gotten $98,000 out of the scheme, and his sub ordinates got pen i t e n t i a ry stripes. If Hebert of Tennessee is not guilty of the crime he was charged with, then the State of South Carolina inflicted a great wrong upon two of her own citi zens. PISTOL CARRYING. There is much attention being given at this time to the prac tice of carrying concealed weap ons, and there is no doubt the pistol "toting habit" is largely responsible for many of the crimes, but how is it to be stop ped? Just as lonsr as it is a part of a young man s dress, just so long will pistols be carried, and the only way to stop the habit is to enforce the law impartially. To catch up some friendless no gro and tine him for being found with a pistol concealed on his person amounts to but little, if white men of the respectable class found with a pistol upon their persons, were to belsent to the gang then we would hear of less shooting, and possibly fewer other crimes. There is no need for any man to convert himself into a walk ing arsenal. few real brave men do so,.it is the coward who us ually goes about with a pistol in his pocket, and when inflamed with liquor at the least provo cation, he whips out his gun shoots down his fellow man then~puts up the plea of self de fence, and is acquitted invariably. A truly brave man when so un fortunate as to become involved in a controversy endeavors to resort to reason, .but he is at a disadvantage when his adiver sary is a liquor-inflamed coward. We agree ,vith those who think the law should be amended so that there shall be prison pun ishment without the alternative of a fine. When it is realized that to carry a pistol means chaingang regardless of position in society, few will take the chances. The Commission appointed to report on the mental condition of Harry K. Thaw has made its investigation and reported that the granting of bail would not be manacing to the public safety The Thaw case has been run ning the gamut of the cour-ts for years, lawyers and doctors have been having a fine picking, were Thaw a poor man he would nave paid the penalty for his crime long ago, but being rich the courts were unable to withstand the pressure of wealth. If at the- time Thaw killed Stanford White he was sane. and did not have a legal right to kill he should have paid the death pen alty, if he was insane he should not have been held responsible, but placed in an institution for the healing of diseased minds, and when his mind returned to its normal condition, he should have been freed, but because of his wealth Thaw has been the victim of legal extortion. The womans suffrage movement is assuming vast proportions, and it would not surprise us in the least if congress proposes a constitution amendment at the present session. If it does, a majority of the States in the Union will ratify the amendment and the women will vote through out the United States.

The forthcoming demolition of Lon don's oldest West End synagogue, sit. ac uated behind His Majesty's theater in th St. Alban's place, Haymarket, marks at an interesting stage in London Jewry. ty There are today in round figures a t quarter of a million Jews in Great 10 Britain, and of these 150,000 are rewi- t dent in London. The metropolitan synagogues included in the United t Synagogue number sixteen, but of -it these few have a more curious record P1 than that of the Western Synagogue. an The synagogue owed its origin to Wolf Liepman of St. Petersburg and n Baron de Symons, who lived In Bed- y ford row, and co-operated about the 'h year 1768 in the establishment of a minyan, which met in the private r house of Mr. Liepman for nearly thirty n years. In 1793 a regular congregation was established-the first synagogue in the 7 West End of London-and a house tl was hired for the purpose in De- to mark's court. It was known as the Denmark Court of Westminster Syna- ty gogue, and stood on the site of the old a Exeter hall, now covered by the g Strand Palacegotel. It was in 1826 that the congregation acquired the premises in St. Alban's e place, and the present synagogue was V1 built. The western synagogue was the o only congregation under the jurisdo- w tion of the eccler tical authorities which in the year 1l41 refused to read the chief rabbi's proclamation against the then newly-founded Burton Steet synagogue.
