LEGISLATURE QUITS
Alter Extraordinary Session of
47 Days.
EM BRACES USUAL JOLLIFICATION
Conference Committees Agrees on
Appropriations ? Members Get
Their Pay?Jollification by Local
Optionists and Prohibitionists in
Locked Arms It was 2:50 a. m.
After a most extraordinary session
of 47 days the general assembly of
South Carolina adjourned Saturday
night with the hands pointing at
11:59, but actual time of 2:50. In
both houBe and senate quorums were
not present, many of the members
having gone home. It the usual
jollification, however, and prohi-.
bitionist and local optionist locked
ars and carroled forth the old songs,
being interrupted occasionally .by a
mock session. The galleries and
floors were crowed at times by visitors,
who watched the proceedings
wiiu interest and amusement.
During one of the -recesses the
"ghost walked" and the members
received their checks for $200 for a
session of 47 dais. Before last year
the ,?av was $4 per day per member
for not exceeding 40 days.
There was a dispute on the extra
pay for the employer nd attaches
for extra pay for the prolonged
session. Finally it was decided
to grant the increase.
The appropriation bill as originally
introduced in the house showed
a decrease of $122,000 from, last
year. On nconnt of appropriations
made id various bills and adjustments
between house and senate the
difference between the appropriation
hill of 100S and 100!) is $12,000. This
is a reduction in the aggregate Appropriation.
The free conference committee
agreed upon the following essential
points which were authorized by
special acts or the action of either
senate or house:
For common school extension
$20,000.
For Winthrop extension $10,000.
For "Winthrop kitchen $12,000.
For factory inspectors $2,000.
For statistical information $300.

Monument to the women of the
Confederacy $7,500.
Contingent account for the senate
$2,000. " '
Same for houRe $,">00.
Additional for solicitors $700.
Additional for clerks $500.
These are the chief items that are
provided for. A number of smaller
allowances were granted.
The house abandoned its appropriation
of $50,000 for free sehcol text
books.
The senate's position was agreed
to in the matter of the Confederate
home and $12,000 is appropriated for
this instead of abandoing the Confederate
home and adding the $12,000
to the general pension appropriation.
Tjien the committee was appointed
to wait on the governor and a coir.;
mittee appointed to notify the senate
that everything was ready to adjourn.
Tn accordance with the usual custom,
Mr. T. B. Fraser of Sumter then
moved that the house do now adjourn
sine die. Just before adjournment
the house went into a committee of
the whole and passed resolutions on
tho impartilitv of the ruling* of
Whaley pnd his work during the
year. There were also the othpp reselation*,
The Bcnutc rest Tuesday night and

time and little was effected for lack

third rending hills.
After dehnte for almost the entire
day nnd more than three hours' discussion
Thursdnv night, much of
which certainly looked like filbnstering,
the senate passed an amendment
<o the prohibition hill?the compromise
proposed bv Senator Cbristens6n.
This amendment was framed up
by senators in conference during the
,discussion on the bill.
The Christensrit amendment, which
passed provides, in brief:
Hold an election July 15 in counties
now having dispensaries to determine
whether they shall continue
the sale of whi.-.key.
This would give prohibition for
two weeks under the opening provisions
of the prohibition bill.
All counties voting to retain the
dispensaries will be under provisions
of the Cery-Cathron act.
[When the house met Monday there

Lido's bill to incorporate the Edisto

passed.
The house killed Senator Webster's
bill providing for a State
board of embnlmers bv a vote of 47
to 17.
It then took up Senator Ott's bill,
which would make a jury verdict a
lien against the person's real estate
On which the verdict is rendered The
time limit had been changed in the
house from ten daya to five days
from the rising of the court. There
was considerable debate on the bill
and it was finally passed.
Mr. Dixon's resolution endorsing
President-elect Taft's sentiment in
his Atlanta speech with reference to
official appointments in the South
was" discussed and finally defeated.
Senator Mauldin's bill to prevent
worthless checki wn? then broiftrht
up and wns finally passed.
It reads as follows:
"Section 1, That from and after

in which he has no funds or not
funds sufficient to pay such check or

to honor such check or draft shall
fail for 30 days to deposit funds sufficient
to meet the same, shall be
deemed guilty of a misdemeanor, and
upon conviction shall be punished byfine
or imprisonment or by fine and
imprisonment in the discretion of the
court."
The senate Friday passed the prohibition
me: Mies with the ChristenBen
and Williams amendments, after
a lengthy discussion as to what was
really the ngreeraent of the evening
before. __

mills, as it was pointed out bv Senator
Mauldin, chairman of the
finance committee, that this levy
would bo necessary with the appropriations
as made in the bill.
The University of South Carolina
was given its $20,000 as proposed in
the bUl for the erection of a new
administration building.
The provision made by the house
ways and means committee for a
$A0.00 appropriation for free school 1
hooks was stricken from the bill,
this being the amendment of the senate
finance committee.
The sulary of the secretary of the 1
railroad commission was raised from
$1 ,A00 to $1,800.
There were several changes in the
department of agriculture, commerce
and industries to conform to the recently
enacted acts as to this dc- j
partment. The two new inspectors
are provided for with $1,000 per year
salaries.

The pension fund was put back by
the finance committee at $'250,000
and the $12,00 included by the house
was made and appropriation for the
Confederate infirmary in Columbia.
There was quite n discussion upon
this, but it was adpoted.
The bill has to go to a committee
on free conference now for final disposition.
The change in affairs in the State
senate made it possible Friday for
an adjournment sine die to be reached
Saturday evening in the general
nssembiv. The conclusion of the
liquor fight was welcomed by many
senators Friday. A session longer
than 40 days did not appeal to
them, much less -coming hack here
next week to consider what could bo
disposed of this week.
The appropriation bill will be arranged
at conference also. None of
the senate amendments affect the bill
irmterlallv except the striking out of
the $50 000 for free nehools. Both
bills will have to be referred to free
conference committees.
