House Kills Printing BUI Final Vote 58 to 41, Comes After Long Session of Debates. Columbia, Feb. 26.—The House of Representatives tonight killed the bill to provide for the establishment of a State printing plant, the roll call vote showing 58 members opposed to the measure and 41 members favoring the plan. The final vote on the bill, reached just before 11 o’clock, came as the climax of a lengthy session of de bate on the measure, the argument having been begun early this after noon and resumed again tonight after the dinner recess. In this rhe torical battle, however, there were only sixjjarticipantsr- Columbia, Feb. 26.—-A “campaign of misrepresentation by the press of this state” against the passage of bills which would provide for the erection of a state printing plant fdr the handling of all state printed matter, including text books for the public schools, has been carried' on for several weeks, Senator Niels Christensen, of Beaufort, chairman of the joint committee on printing of the General Assembly, declared in an address from the floor of the Sen ate tonight. Senator Christensen rose to a point of personal privilege to defend the committee which headed against cer tain alleged insinuations which he said "had been made through the press of the state. “When we made this report,” he said, “we knew just what we were up against. We believed we would have a practically unanimous press of this state against us. We felt sure that we would have the printers of the State against us. We also knew that* the newspapers of this state, when they get aroused on any sub ject, are powerful. With a solid press arrayed against us, we knew that con ditions were going to be difficult. “Our committee learned what they had already understood in Kentucky, Tennessee, Indiana and Kansas that the so-called book trust has been very active," that they have fought efforts to establish state printing plants. w “The senate probably will not con vene for regular business until Thurs day,” Senator Smith said today, “and a resolution will then be introduced asking authority for the agricultural committee to investigate all the facts in orde# to settle the question of the existence of this cotton ,and if it does not exist, to take suitable steps to have the correction made. Tlje public may rest assured that nothing will be left undone to ascertain the facts.” s 8 8 Accepts Pastorate Of Gaffney Church Gaffney, Feb. 26.—Dr. Cecil V.
