MARLING PREPARATIONS FOR LEGISLATUIRE (Continued from Page One.) errode vetoes of Governor -Blease on the appropriation and other bills with lightning-like rapidity. The session closed in a tempest, and many politi cal observers are saying that 'the re sentments endangered in the closing hours of last session are going to lbreak out early this time. That re mains to 'be seen. The session now rapidly drawing near is the last of the present body. It being on the eve of a campaign for the( United States Senate, Governor and all State offices, the General As sembly, which is soon to gather, is likely to make history. Both the Ad ministration and Anti-Administration leaders know this, and both sides will be quick to take advantage of any thing which wouild, in their judgment, increase their hold with.the people.

Liles, of Orangeburg, and others. Around them are gathered able men. With Representative C. C. Wyche leading the lcense forces, and ably assisted by Representatives C. N. Sapp, of Lancaster; ".Tosh" Ashley, of Anderson, and others, the political debates will .prove interesting. The House is Ant 1ilease, but by what ma jority is hard to say... The Senate is Anti-hlicase by two thirds, but being a more conservative body than the lower branch, faction al politica do not play such a leading part there in the debates. Senator McIaurin and Senator Nicholson will attract more than usual interest this year, the first because of hIs expect ed announcement for the Unitedl States Senate and his fight for the warehouse 1b111, and the other because 'he will have charge of the efforts to get through legislation safeguarding the primnary.-W.
