Columbia, Sept. 14.?-The big drama opened in the state bouse todaycomedy, tragedy, or melodrama, as -you like with Governor Blackwood in the role of star, the villain, the funny man and the melodramatic saving of the beautiful and innocent girl, named South Carolina, from the fate which seemed to await her in the first act, as a horde of KaiC Indians,! Chinese, Egyptians and other savag* * tried to eat her up. There are nearly 2UU supernumeraries in the cast, also, lumped together as legislators, giving substance to the big opening scene, and later to put on -the mob scene?urn less they go on strike for higher wages, for there are growls about having to work for half pay in this new play written by a man named Long who is a prominent theatrical producer of Louisiana. The senate and house were called - to order at noon-,, by the lieutenant governor and speaker dressed in black gowns, in a stage setting adequate to the new play. The stat was discuvI ered on stage when the curtain io.se, and almost at once he was in the center of the stage with the spot j light bit hint, reciting the lines of I his opening speech. I It was a short speech, about the length of Hamlet's soliloquy, or the advice to young men by Polonius, but no other resemblance to Shakespeare. The governor told of the hard times afflicting the cotton growers, and with all the assurance of a veteran piny actor told how prosperity may be regained by everybody being for-i I bidden by a law from working cotton J next year. He has not the least doubt of the constitutionality of a cotton proh.bition law, because"Bractically all of the lawyers and) jurists of atty considerable note hold the opinion that it is constitution.tl to prohibit the production of any I Big monev- savings every Year Before you make any promises; pay any money or obligate yourself in any way?find out about the money-saving features of the Westinghouse "Completely Balanced" Refrigerator.

' ' ? ? - .'I plant or agricultural commodity tin- I tier certain condition*." i Governor Blackwood read his mes- \ ?a*e to a small audience besides those , who being members were compelled to be there. At this alleged great crisis 1 in the affairs of all South Carolina ! I armors, there were only a hukers j dozen people in the senate galleries ( and about HO in the house galleries. It looked like the people aje refusing ! to become/enthused with the salva c l.ion bffoWd them by the-.politicians. 1 I he message was received for infor- Z ination by a formal motion. ^ Atti pointing out how tlie farmers | | >t.*iid on the brink of ruin, Governor j n.at'huood said it would be wrong not' to give thorn "the most drastic and \ heroic ieg.slation that i an p.??-ib> j be employed in his behalf." t "Cut prompt action," he said, "will * probably encourage other stall's that ' are treinhling in the balance of in- i decision and. insofar as we may Know, I South Carolina may be the determiu ' tng factor m this great stiSigglc in ' the interest of Southern agriculture. | The fanners, in accentuated tone-.)' have -aid that it is then wish that : I this law be enacted," Contending that ihi- Long plan. .,pproved by Louisiana's legislature, forbidding any planting next year "hs the best plan that has been offered," , the governor said, i "JU this law is enacted and is n >l productive of great good, no harm has been accomplished: If it is not enacted and the farmers' condition grows more calamitous, you will have no alternative but to regret that you did not act when you had an opportunity." And he added that he has no desire to coerce or dominate the legislature into adopting his .suggestion. The governor's message closed with some good oratory about emancipation from cotton growing slavery, and a crisis that means despair?unless that drastic law prohibiting any cotton planting next year is passed by this special session of the legislature Before the solons got here, the governor had remodeled his commands to them. The pledge he made a major.ty sign before calling the special session was to refrain from talking about anything except total p'rohibition raising next year. Afte- Te\;>so'.ons seemed bent on only partial re -trillion of piling. Governor Blackwood -;i hi t hat pledge cov ers any plan to les-en the acreage of cotton ? South Carolina ? but thev had better adopt prohibition of cotton next year. The bill in thi- state is t^fair copy o! the Long bill pas serf by tho l.ou:-: ana legislature, and it was drawn n the governor's, office last week with some care. \\ hat state department is to enforce the law. if it become- a .aw, was given consideration, and the department of agriculture, commc < and industries was tagged as it. Thai will be .i leal job for somebody, vv ' b immense potentialities beyond bo ?tlegging whisky prevention. A genius of a legislative mechanic. ( ierk Gihbes of the house, had on' even desk in that chamber today house calendars carrying numerous bills on the calendar as left over from the regular session. 'He suggeste 1 that one of these could be bobtailed in the usual way to become the cotton prohibition bill, and thus cou'd be passed and the solons go home ir. two days. They won't. The ballyhoo that this session, ami the proposed legislation, is a response by the governor to a mandate from the farmers of the state, was Ulit X HI* r loudly here today. How much truth and how much bunk there is in it the figures show. Of the 1 .">7.000 dirt farmers in this state, 0.000 voted for the extra session. and 3,000 were opposed to legi-lative cure?-al 1 for cotton prices. And in addition to the 3.000 at the meeting and opposing the Long-Blackwood plan, there should be counter! i:i opposition most of the 145.000 farmers who did m?t attend the meetings, vvhibh were cut and dried by the politician in advance. The simple fact | is. that the newspaper editors, the business men, and pmrtimiiy ew.y-1 body except the professional pulir -] c:an- are opposed to -j>ecial -ess. >n. ! any law about tton, or anything of the kind. The whole thing, in other -latewell a> South i arolina. i> being I tempted by eir.xtion.il. high press' ; methods ot the- same character i those used at the entrance to -hows and mermaid exhibitions. The governor of Georgia, .-anc on ! safe, is being attacked by one of the commissioners of that state by mean - , of mass meetings which are the favorite means of the revivalists. The mass meeting-, with politicians for -peakers and workers scattered thru the audiences, are worked up to emotional pitch by the political evangelists and then pass the resolutions the politicians have prepared in advance for them. Perhaps the most remarkable thing j is that Governor I/ong. of Louisiana. I is holding nightly radio revivals from his own state addressed to the vote - ; of Texas, and other states. The gov - j ernor of Texas, and other states. Th" i governor of Texas told him to atten 1 ; to his own business without result, i Practically all cotton state governor except Ixvng and Blackwood are opf>t>Sed to" the jdarr of prohibiting cuLton planting entirely next year. But everything depends on what Texas does, all say, for Texas produces more cotton than several of the other thirteen states cbrhbined. Kven Ia>ng and Mlaokwood admit that leg islation in Mouisinnu and South t'ai>Iina incikt be made continent of the (Late producing mo<rt of the cotton tdopting identical laws. And Texas has given plain signs .hat she will not adopt the prohibiten of cotton planting next year, in spite of tin tremendous evangelistic iction of her politicians and those of 1 >ther stales. The 1 exas legislature had tw< , dans before it on its opening day an i sent both u> committees The senate onimittee and the h. u<? committee cached the same ioiplu>ion.

"I'm glad we,have a Telephone again" A number of people who K*ve up their telephones during the stress of the past twelve months have told us that this proved to be false economy and they have had their service restored. Those who have not had their service reinstalled, and those who may be hesitating about having a telephone of their own, are reminded that telephone service iH no longer regarded as an expense, but is considered a necessary home convenience and economy. No othflx money you spend can bring you more actual ' value. Thousands of telephone subscribers know the truth of this. They do not consider their telephone statement as a "bill," , but rather as a reminder of pleasanter living and broadened opportunities. Those who have previously enjoyed telephone service appreciate It more than ever; new subscribers wonder how they ever did without it. Telephone service costs so little and the advantages are so many that it really doesn't pay to try to do without it.
