Som1e of the Imnportant Mattcra Be fore the General Asembly, rho committee on Stato House re ported favorably on Mr. Bacot's resolu' tiou - to lend the paintings of Confed erate generals belonging to the State, to the executive comiittee of thu Charleston Confedorate Riunion if do sired for the decorations of the Audito rium. The committee atnended the resolution so as to includo th loan of toe Confoderate lir gs, atd on condition that the pictures bL insured for an amount. to b3 agreed upon. M-lr. Eilrd's bill to have one intead of three supoisors of registration wa~s continued until the next session with his Consent. Mr. Woodward said ho did not car-c to discuss at length bis bill requiring a license to carry certain deadly weapons, fixing the amo-unt of the license fee, anti providing a penalty for carrylog the sAmO without said license. [ic said the bill would give the counties some revenue, and that ho thoup t it on the rig ht line. The enactig words of th 3 bill woro stricken out. Mr. Mann's bill to provide for the equitable assignment and payment of taxes on mortgaged property did not, provokte -nuoli discussion. Ile explh-in ed his position briefly, and on Mr. Alt Cullough's amendment the enactitng words of the bill were stricken out. A DEDATH ON THl, CHAIN GANG. Mr. Miley, of Colieton, had a bill to amend tlio county governmtent act.. Mr. Hydrick, of Spartanburg, pro. posed a general bill to take the plice of the act which recently went into ciYeot. His bill proposed to fix the sahelea of the comissionors in each of the counties In one general bill. His general bill also proposed to [x the salaries of the two o(ther comitisoioi ers in the general bill. (o saild that four bills had been introduced and passed as to the county goverinemeti bill. Ono bill went through for Pair flold, another for Orangeburg, anontwur fjr Richland and another for Uau fort, and that if this thing keeps up every county will have its own county laws. Ho believed these special auts would not h)ld. A motion was mado to tabl.3 Mr. y dricks general amendmentb to M-. Miley's bill. A quorum did not votc the first time. A second vute showcd 73 members voting. Mr. Hydrick said Mr. Miley's bill as to convicts working on the chain gang was tvrong. The convicts should Lbe kept on the chain gang. Th, bill il virtually repeal the acts of 1897 tand 1898, which permit five-year termx p;' onorE. Mr. Varn said he had been his chain gang with two men guarding one ittl iegro. He did not want to see his en. ty ditchied. lie did -ot want a chain gang with lees than t-n prisor'ers. Mr. Etird was afraid to jeopardi ze the chain gang system to suit Coeliton. There was no good In the measure at all. Mr. Marilon, of Chester, sai(d tie hn l limits the chain gang term to two y ei.rt The present law now ailowed live-year convicts on the chail gang. Mr. Hopkins said in his county the number on the ebalu gang varies, anl If the nutber run down to ten .he wholo work will have to be stopped. This bi1t is not calculated to do good. Mr."Prince, of Ando.-son, said hia county had the best roads In tle State, and it was largely due to the chain gang system. He wainte(d all prisoners on the roads. He !vwuld like to ;we even 10-year prisoncrs oi the chai i gang. The chain gangs were a gurm saving for his people, and they want the -y-tem extended. Mr. Varn said in Colloton thore w erk two men at work, a white man anti ne gro. The white man did the cookinug, and the only work was by the negro prisoner, and two guards were paid $li5 each a month to dio the guarding for .about $5 worth of road word. Mr. Prince said to exempt Colton - ter this bill may jcopardize. the w h.olo bill for all coutite H is emty wanted all the prisoners it could get, as his people weire thinkiug of macauO amlz~ng their roads. Dr. Wyolhe, of Newberriy, was vio lently opposed to speial legislation. It is all wrong to pass bill for' etch county or community. Members are making themselves ridiculous by pass ing so -mnany separ'ate bills. The comt mlttees, or' someone, should pi opare general laws. The Constitution con templatee general laws applicable to the entire State, and it was wrong to have one law for Colleton and another' for Anderson. There ought to he gen eral laws. He favo' 'ad Mrt. Hlydrick's general law. Mr. Cosgrove said he agreedI with Mr. Prince that not stnf1icient attention was paid to the matter of drainage. He said that thousand' of acres of trc best lands in the State were useless because of lack of drainage. 'rho bill was on the wrong line. Dr'. Wycho moved to recomm It the b)ill. Mr'. Loftou opp~osedM reCcomm 11itinlg at thin stage of theu sosio~n. ThIe but was recommItted by a vote of 49 toe 25. BIENNIA L SESSIONS. Mr Sturkie wanted to take up the resolution providing for biennial sts pions and four-year terms for members. His people wanted such legiolatlon. Mr. B-ilease said the constitution pro vided that a two-thirds vqte of thi' membues elected was necessary to paiss the r. solution. T1he're we-c bar'ely t wo-thirds of the mfembort' preont, and he hopedl the matter would be takor upW ithi a larger' attetndanco. TIhc Hlouse agreed to bako tip the resolu tiou Dr. Wycihe said if the General A:; sembl ydid notf r itter away its timo il need not meet every year. Thlert was too muoh work done1( here whil ought to to transacted by the couunt commissioners. He said mneimbet's pr'e sent a bill one year and the next yeai legislate to change it -around. If Lthe LogIslature contines itself to genera legliat'onl there will be -more that enough time. Local matters should ht left. so the county conmissioners. HC, thought all cduanty oflicerd should bt elected for four years, as It would say' a greuat deal of money now spent ii holding elections.
