The mo tion to strike out the enacting wvords e of the resolution was lost by a vote 0 oft31toOS68. Several hours of continuous debte -was indlulged in again. (luring which time the martyred ghost of state 1 rights was again widely stalking; abroad. accompanied by its phantom rival, negro domination or equality. Champions of the violated "issues" ex hausted their "munition (lumps" against an invincible war machine. The hosts had come. not to praise. hu' a to bury Caesar. The gallaries wer' filled with enthusiastic spectators, who occasionally slipped the clutch. ramp ed the floors with their feet, yelled in 0 response to sarcastic rep~artee and tol- r lowed the arguments with resounding applause. Those voting against pan sage of the resolution to thIrd reading were: Bailey. Barnwell, Boinet, Clink scales. Crews, Davis, J. Ei. Duncan, '~!addy, J. J., Evans. H. Hi., Fromborg. Hall. A.

C TPhe senate passed and ordered sent to t he house bill exempting strictly loudal bu~ildinug and loan associations,, which are piurely mutual and whose sole business is the lending of money for t he building and repairing or im-t proving of haoutse The present tax I laws beOar so heavily on such institu- I tionas that many of them are goIng out I of business. As thei-e are no other finiaciaul aigenicies through which the I pofir mant or the man ont salary may I secure loans on such. adivantagee 1 terms the passage of the -bill means much to that class of citizens. Ii Mr. Moore of Abbeville led the fight i Opposition to the measure, which he haracter;zed as a "shackle." It was' egarding every man as a grand rae. al. his observation was that men vere "botter when put on their honor han by circumspribing them." The allot was a God given right and vot rs should not be held in duress. Mr. llughes of Oconee agreed that oters should not be held in duress, but if the provisions of ths bill are uress, God knows we need more of L." Its chief object was to protect lie voters from "bootleggein" and thers who voted those un .ble to lake out their own ticket, "dften ly ig to the voter and seeing that the rong name is scratched. how often oes the will of the bootlegger go into lie ballot box and not that of the man rho casts the vote." Mi. IAles of Orangeburg made an arnest appeal for the passage of the ill. "We have heard much about the esire to protect the white man in the allot. If this doesn't protect him,i lien he can't be protected." Mr. Young of Charleston led the de ate with an explanation of the suc ossful working of the law in Charles. >n and of the small amount of money ecessary to introduce Ile system. The members of the senate unani ously joined the farces for conserva on which are led by llerbert Iloover, 'iitel State food administrator. A esolution was adopted indorsing the cork and the policies of Mr. Hoover. his means that the members favor 'heatless days, meatless days, less onsumption of sugar and pork prod ets. The resolution was proposed by enator Ioattie of Kershaw. The State senate in one hour passed nd ordered ratified four bills, and assed and sent to the house nine bills. nd then began the consideration of wond reading bills. When it adjourn. d to meet with the house to elect ertain State officers, it had under onsideraton a bill to put upon the onor roll all bona fide Confederate oldiers and sailors and widows of onfederate soldiers and sailors and ompensate them for services .render d from 1861 to 1865.
