The senate by a vote of 19 to 13 re
fused to lay this on the table, but I1
was clear that this vote indicated noth
ing positive in respect to the senate's
attitude on the bill..
This bill is introduced by several
whereases to the effect that since the
warehouse commissioner is required
to keep insured cotton on storage in
state warehouses, and since a number
of the larger insurance companies have
refused to operate under the law regu

stores of cotton in state warehouses
as well as the state itself from ha.
bility on warehouse receipts, be it

The bill requires the warehouse cam

In ordler to carry out the pit'Isionts
of the act,* the governor', compltroller

subject to the draft of the state wvare
house commissioner to pay fIre losser
Senator Laney, in discussing the bill,
called att.mntion to the wonedrful sav
ings that the state had secured by
condutcing its own insur'anc'e on state
andI county property. and also to the~
very great p~roflits that the insuranc
companies had made out of insurance
placed on state warehouses. F'urther.
more, lhe stated that as lnsur'ance wvas

was practically in effect in the con

merely added up the losses and ex.
V '~ penses andl fixed the rates to cor'res

- Carolina certainly could doa the sam
thing and would greatly redluce the
cost of insuirance. While the time
was stot rllpe for general state insur
ance, everything was tending in thal
direction and he believed sooner ni
later It would caime ab~out. That thi'
bill was merely an extension of the
State insurauce already in force, and
which hadl been wondlerfully profita

Senator Stuckey thought the bil1

South Carolina Raised $5,808.78.
'From R. M. Kennedy, library cam
paign director for South Carolina, it in
learned that the fund raised in South
Carolina for camp librar' was $5,.
803.78. This exceeds the .it rais
ed in 19 other states. No. .'arolina,
for instances, raised only $4,559,.;5,
Georgia contributed $6,164, and Vir.
ginia, $7,785.83.
The grand total in the United States
was over $1,500,000, oversubscrbing
the million dollar fund set as the ob
Jective by more than a half. Hooks
for soldiers and sailors in camps and
wherever assembled are, therefore, as
sured, and the American Library A.3
sociation is now supplying them a +
rapidly as possible.
Camp Jackson and the other canton
ments in the state now have camp
libraries and the library buildings are
in process of erection.
Gifts of books and magazines co'.

received a great many donations, too
- numerous to list, which he has turned

Members of the South Carolina gen

, edge of Saluda when in the coninanrl
of a lifeboat lie and fellow members
of the crew of the gunboat Annapolis
I imperiled their own lives in going to
the rescue of those on board the sink
ing ship Pattlesford. Should the sen
ate approve the house resolution com
mittees from the general assembly will
procure subscriptions from the state
to purchase a sword, which is to be
suitably engraved and presented to
Ensign Etheredge. The resoltuion was
offered by Mr. Daniel, representative
from Saluda county.
Mr. Toole of Aiken offered a some
what similar resolution, providing for
the purchase of a gold medal, to cost
not more than $100 and to be paid for
out of the contingent fund. With the'
adoption of the Daniel resolution, that
by Mr. Toole was continued for further
consideration. *

JUDGE M. L SMITH
RESIGNSFOR ARMY'
WAS FOR NUMBER OF YEARS
SPEAKER OF THE HOUSE OF
REPRESENTATIVES.
IS MAJOR JUDGE ADVOCATE
South Carolina Has Sustained Greac
Loss on Bench, Says Gocernor
Manning.
The resignation of Mendel L. Smith
as judge of the lifth Judicial circuit,
was transmitted to both houses of the
general assembly. Mr. Smith has been
commissioned as major judge advocato
of the United States army and passed
through Columbia on his way to ('amp
Wad. worth, Spartanburg. where he has
been assigned.
Having been a member of the legis
lature a number of years and one of
the most popular and efficient speak.
ers who ever presided in the house,
his visit to the house was greeted with
enthusiasm. A resolution was ifte
diately introduced by Messrs. From.
berg and Martin, asking Major Smith
to address the legislature.
In responding to the call, Majo:
Smith emphasized that America's mis
sion in the war was to be of "service
to humanity." A brief sketch of all
the wars in which the nation has had
part was given, emphasizing that her
sole object has always been. in war
and diplomacy, service to humanity.
The present conflict was to withstan.l
the doctrine of force, formerly employ
ed by the Itomans and now having its
rebirth in the Prussians.
The members of the legislature were
reminded that their responsibility just
now was especially grave as leaders s
of 'thought and action in the state.
Conditions challenged their utmost
powers, he said: "No dollar can be I
too sacred; no calling too high; anl (
no sacrifice too great."
The great cause of righteousness will \
triumph, he said, "and when the mene
return it will te the grandest welcome t
South Carolina has ever given any of t
her noble- sons. Sume will be limp I
and faltering. Some will be wrapped I
in the blood soaked soil of France.
But if some are absent, it will be a
triumph in which it will be glorious
to live and glorious to die."
In his letter transmitting Major
Smith's resignation, Governor Manning
said:
"I have the honor to transmit here
with a true copy of the resignation of
the honorable Mendel L. Smith, judge
of the Fifth Judicial Circuit of South
Carolina.
"In accepting the resignation oI
Judre Smith, I wish to commenlJ him 1
for his patriotism and to bear testi
mony of the great loss the people of
South Carolina have sustained in t0-.
ing his services on thle bench. I take
this opportunity to officially congtratu
