Mr. Gago's bill to prohibit the manu
facturo and sale of cigarettes was taken
up and passed over to permit Mr.
Epps' )IIl onl the same subject to be
considered first.
Mr. Sinkler said that the United
States court of appeals had recently
decided exactly similar bills uncon
stitutional.
Mr. Ashley moved to striko out the
enacting words of the bill. Both
bills had bcn unfavorably reported.
Mr. Epps thought that it was time
to put a sto) to the injury that was
being done to the yorth of the Stato by
the sale of cigarettes. Ho thought
their lives were being endangered.
Mr. Sinkier said, if any ono could
satisfy him that this law was constitu
tional he would vote for the bill. The
circuit court of aleals had decided
adversely to such a bill.
Mr. Winkler knew of no more dam
nable habit to the youth of this coun
try than that of tinoking cigarettes.
It was a bill to commend itieif to the
members of the general sscmbly.
He be!d that the Iowa decision covi red
a c ..en't Cnse. lHe was satisfied that
the bill would stand. If it injured the
tobacco industry, iet the tooace) in
dustry go rather than ruin thu boys of
the State.
Mr. Cushmon argued that the boys
would pureciaso smoking tobacco and
use the worst kind of palpr to make
cigarettes. Why not pass a bili if you
are going to do this to include all
kinds of smoking tobacco, cigars, etc.
Mr. deLoach said that all physicians
agreed that cigarettes ready made
were most dangerouri. That was the
most harmful way in which tobacco
Wits uL-ld.
Mr. Speer explained the position of
the committeG and declared himself in
favor of the bill.
Mr. Perritt said they had a law on
this subject which was not enforced.
It was not the province of the general
assembly to legislate parentage.
Mr. Gage did not belong to that class
of men wh[o wanted to take care of his
fellowman, but he wanted protection
for the people from this evil. One
great evil was the tendency to drink
liquor ; the other greatest was the
smoking of cigarettes. le said it
was a cursC.
Mr. Patton rose when Mr. Gage
asked any one who did not think It a
curse to raise his hand, and said he
had been chewing tobacco and smok
ing pipes, cigars and cigarettes for 20
years, and he submitted that he was
perhaps a better physical specimen
than his friend. (Laughter.)
Mr. Patton, making a pretty quota
tion and IIppflication, went on to say
that some men were prone to attack
the pet vices of others.
Mr. Pattoe. resumed his argument
on the cigarette bill at the night
session, saying the worst thing about
tobacco was its cost. Mr. Patton was
saying that a mother could do more
with a shingle than all the statutes to
break bos from smoking cigarettes.
Mr. deLoaehl asked Mr. Patton if
he lad- experienced the parental obli
gation.
M r. Patton -Alr. Speaker, it is really
a very funny thing, how all these
newly mart ied young fellows, when
they have been married a few months,
think they aro the grand parents of a
whole tribe.
Mr. Patton saidi they had reduced
the prieo of whiskey from 10 cents a
drink to 31 cents a drink ; now why
would they raise the price of cigar
ettes, tihe lesser evil. H~e said ho
thought that the house was going to
refuse to prohibit the sale of liquor.
HeI saidl this cigarette law would not
stand the test of the courts. The
young were already piro~ected. If they
would pauss It as a revenue measure.,
then it was unjust andi dliscriminating.
Mr. del oaeh relied, saying that
the smokV g of cigarettes was niot to be
compairedl with the smoking of p)1p)s.
Hie argued thatt the dIspensary law de
creases thle dIrinking of liquor. Mr.
deLoach was a reformed cigarette
smioker himself.
Mr. deLorch's amendment to make
the privilege tax 10 cents instead of
25 cents was then killed, after being
consideredl againi, there bin~ tg someI
doubt as to its having been voted upon
at the moi~rning sesloi.
Mr. Ashley eflfred to amend~ by
adding the following words: "Nor
shall any cigar he sold without comply
ing with the terms of this act, or pipew
be sold without a cane-root )pipe .sem;
nor shall any pipe bo0 usedl more than
three days without being cleancd ;and
further that no man shall chew to
bacco more than once." TIhis c.eated
loudl havghter. Of cours~e nothing was
done with the amend menit, TIhe bill
wvas thcn ordered to a third read ing in
this shape:
Section 1. That no packago of
cigarettes sold otr offered for sale shall
contain more than five cigarttes, nor
shall any package of cigarette paper
sold or olfored for sale contaIn more
thlan 100) leaves of length and width
no0w used.
See. 2. That every such package of
cigarettes or cigarette parlO shall
have thereon a privileged tax stamp
as hereinafter pr-ovided for, which
shall ho furnished to dealers In cigar
ettes or cigarette paper by the county
treasurers of the countics of thIs State
at a cost of 25 cents each, and the pro
coeds of the sale of such stam ps sall
bo hleld b~y the county tteasurers sub
ject to tile war'rants of the boards of
county commissioners like thle funds
for ordinary county expenses.
Sec. 3. That the privIleged tax stamp
for cigarettes or cigarette paper shall
be 'n form as follows : " Numberm --,
Statb of Southl Carolina :This is to
certify that thle prlviloge tax of tis
pack~age has been paId to the county
treasurer, , Coimptrollor Genera,
S. C." The same shall he lithograph
ed in the handwriting of the present
comnptrollcr general, and Is successor

shall be of convenient size and shape
and mucllaged in such con venlent way
as the comptroller general shall direct,
and shall bo furnished by the comp
troller general to the county treasurers
upon demand, who shall account for
them and the sales of each year to tho
coiptroller general.
Sec. 4. That all persons violating
any Of the provisions of this act shall.
upon conviction thereof, pay a line of
not less than $50 nor more than $100,
or Imprisonment with or without bard
labor for not less than 20 nor more than
30 days.
THEC .JIM CROW CMt 111L'.
When Mr. Caugh man's Ji n Crow car
bill, which had been unfavorably re
ported, was called up Mr. Meares
mnovcd to strike out the enacting words.
Mr. Caugiman defended his bill. lHe
thought it Was their duty to legislate
for the benelit of the Caucasian race
in the future. lie was fully aware
that this bill ad be en fought over
every two years sinco 'IN. He feared
that as the years rolled by intermar
marriage of the races might come. Ho
argued that the railroads w ould not
suffer. fle urged the fact that most of
the other Southorn States had such
laws.
Mr. Reynolds said that the unfavor
able report of the committee was of
course of weight in this r.atter. He I
said there had been a growing feeling i
that this legislation was unnecessary. i
The course of such bills in 20 vear is
showed that. The desire for the bill
grew out of the race problem. It waw
the Idea of the thing mo01 than the
reality which mado some11 people want
th is act. What was the necessity for <
this radical change.
Mr. Pollock, of the railroad commit
tee, resented the statement of Mr.
Caughman that the committee had
heard railroad men on the bill, When
they hadn't notilied him of the consi- I
dcration. li- sidd that a railroad rep
Sn tativo i id appear before the com
mittee, but thle committee didn't care I
to hear anything special on the sub
j.2ct, because the subject has been dis
cusleld for 20 years and every man,
posibly, had hIs mind made up on the
bhject. Ile could 6eo no argument in
the fact that other Stateshad passed
such a law. South Carolina was sup
posed to be tho best judge of her own
needs and there was no demand for I
such a bill. Usually the travel in the
State was not so large as to require.
separate coaches. Color was not the
only consideration any way. His ex
perionce was that colored mon in first
class coaches always behaved them
selves ducently and respectfully. lie
saw no necessity for the bill.
Mr. Kinard, of Abbeville, said lie be
lieved in keeping the negroes separate
from the white gentlemen and ladies.
The race question is a deep one and t
the only way to settle it Is to keep a t
well marked line between them under I
all circumstances.
Mr. Cushman said he had never
heard any complaint as to the opera
tion of the law where it Is in force. If 1
the law is needed in other States, so
much more do we need it, for our col- c
ored population is much greater in
proportion than it is in other States. e
It would ruquirc no hardship on the r
railroads, because a simple division of
a passenger car into two compartments
would be sullicient. C
Mr. Reynolds said the trouble about f
negroes was infinitely greater on street (
cars. Make this apply to them and a
drive thema out of business. t
Mr. E'lird said with all duo deference I
to the colored man and his rights, he a
must raise his voice in behalf of this 8
bill. To vote to kill this bill was to say c
that they approved of negroes riding L
in ears with their wives and daughters. v
Mr. Rogers said the tendency of this f
age was to decide all such (uiestions in
the light of their utility. This was a i
lvqestioni wh ih roo fart above utility e
andI all quelstionls of expen'lse.t
M r. Sturkile had always favored thlet
Jim Crow car hill.'i
Mr'. 1Pollock wvent for Mr. K inard in
quite a warm manner in regai'd to his<
assertIon that thte pra'ctice of the r'acest
travelIng in the same coaches was an
icentive to amaltlgamnation.
Mr. Rogers inarked that if it weroe
p)ossible lhe would like to see the ne- I
groes biOttedl out of the State.
Mr. Kinard spoke of the water closet
pr-oblemi, ui-ging that matter, lie said <
that none of the arguments against the
bill wvere sound.
Mr. W. S. Smith said they neededI
the bill badly in) tho~ lower' potrtion of
tho State. Hie argued fotr sotme time.

as to give the i'ailr'oad cio it ission au

when inI their judgment it became nee
essary.
Mr. Smith opposed any amendment
from anybody, or' any of tihe memibet's
of the committee. Thelly wanted tihe
bill passed as it was. A fter' a little
spiat between Messr-s. Smith and Pol
loek, the former moved to table thei
amendment., but w ithd row the motioni

Mrt. . eldeli said that unless this

Mr. P'ollock's amendmient was then

Mlr. Meares insisted on the date he
had siiggested. The Hotuo refused to
let it stand until November.
Mr. Stuikie's anendment was then
tgreed to.
Mr. iGadsden then Offered an anit'nd
