Special Session of
Legislature Opened
Special to I he \ orkville Fatquirer.
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.
Many owners report savings of nearly half
the purchase price?the very first year. And
hundreds of kitchen surveys prove that these
big savings may be expected year after year.
Why miss this money-saving?and the enjoyable
features of a Westinghouse, too?
Prices are very moderate. Only $10 down
is required. Two whole years to pay the balance.
See us for a demonstration, for proof
of what a Westinghouse Refrigerator will
save each year in your kitchen. Buy no refrigerator
until you get this money-saving
information.

' ? ? - .'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. That

"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.
