VOL.XXXV PICKEN59 SOUTH CAROLINA, WEDNESDA DOINGS OF THE LEGISLATURE THE SOLONS ARE AT WORK Lots of Bills Have Been Offered, But Few Have Gone Tbrougb. Columbia, 8. C, Jan 21, 1906 - Two weeks toiorrow since the Log islature net at d both branche, have been busy since. A good ntuy bills, something over 300, h ;ve been offered. but few of them have reached a third read. ing, many being killed on the floor, in the oommittee room, recom mitted withdrawn. Representative T. J. Mauldin has introduced a bill to allow Piokens county to borrow f ron the Sinking Fund sufficient monies to pay off its ptast indebtedness and get on a cash basis This measure will be passed. Pickens county's delega tioi are hard at work and they are watching every bill as it is offered and giving their hearty support to it if it is a good measure, but op posing it -with all the vehemence at their command if it is not for the best interebte of the state at large. They are a delegation any county should feel proud of. A bill has been rushed through to grant additional poweri to the dispensary investigating commit tee. Among the second reading bills that have been ordered to- a third reading in the lower house are: To require counties to have blood. hounds; To provide additinal re. quirements in regard to the inspec. tion of cotton seed meal ; To amend the act relating to capitation tax on dog-,; ro provide stationery and stamps for school trustees; To pro. vide for a board of pardons, L. Mauldin's bill to requiie auditors to administer in due form the oaths to parties inakiing retiirii of property, was recommitted; A bill by Mr. Sanders to provid3 for an oil inspeotor; To. make an appropriation to the Confederate Horme College and to provide for scholarships in the sane; To sot apart and provide Christmas holi de.ys for the stato institutions of higher learning in the state of South Carolina; To amend section 553 of the criminal codo of South Carolina relative to the hunting of ertain birds to period beginpiu,, Nov. 15 and ending 1st of March following. There-will be lots- of bills intro. duced, many of which will never reach the calender; sOsne, of much good to the state, will be killed, be cause there may be&sime "politics" ' in it, while some. bills will be of, fered just to please "my constitu There is flow, and will be several bills looking toward the betterment1 of the dispensary, while local . option and prohibition measures are rife. The senate seems- com mitted to a dispensary. bill while the house seems divided betweeni prohibition and local opti n. During the forty days in which this body will remain in seion' -.-many heated dhiscusions will taket place and muclh ground will be threshed over. What .the outcome will be I am uinable to say at this writing. J. .
