No Hunter's License for York.
Pililiir t'ni't Mill 'I'ii.iDC'
| ? J MIIVO,
In last week's issue of The |
Tirues, page 1, there appeared I
an article from the Dillon Herald
relative to the hunter's license;
law passed at the 19 lo session
of the (lonerai Assembly. Those
who did not follow the passage 5
of this act through the General
Assembly conclude from read-'
ing the article that the law is
Statewide in its scope. Such is j
not the case. A number ot
counties, one of which is York, 1
are not included in it. In Yorkj
j county no license is required of J
the resident hunter. The hunt-1
! ing laws for York County were'
not changed at the 191 o session!
of the General Assembly.
I imagine that this is a matter
in which a considerable number

Again Declared Unconstitutional, j
At Spartanburg Tuesday Judge
John S. Wilson held South Caro-!
I lina's galion-a-month law un- j
constitutional in its application
to intrastate shipments of 1 itjuor. I
; The trouble is in the title of the
ct, according to the court's r
j ruling and is one that legislative]
; amendment will cure readily. ; i
i'he court held that the title of]
the act does not con 1'orni to i
articles, section 17 ot the Con- j'
stitution, which provides that's
i . I
every act or resolution having1
I I lie force of the law shall relate ;
to one subject and thai shall be 1
expressed in the title. The title j
of the gallon-a-inonth law slates
the subject of the act to be that!1
of the regulation of the shipment!
! of alcoholic liquor into the State!
' but makes no reference to ship- j
; ment entirely within the State.
Convict Stii! at Lagre.
Will Crosby, the negro convict
who escaped from the county
chaingang last Thursday while a i
portion of the gang was at work :
on the Hock Hill road near White
j Hill church, is still at large, says 1
j the Yorkville Enquirer. A re|
ward of $25 is offered by Superi
visor Boyd fcr his capture. Cros:
by is said to have been seen at a j
r.egro house on Mr. M. L. Thorn-1
asson's place Thursday afternoon
and he managed to cut the shackles
there wi th the aid of a har- ,
row tooth. It is also said that
the negro was seen in the Filbert
I community Friday afternoon.
