The Inalguration of, linn. Robert A.
Cooper, of tits city, a< govertnor of
Soutth Carolina is to take place next
Ttlesday liost probably in tihe hall of
the House of itepresentatives at noon.
A large ntimber of people of this city
have already sIgnilled a tdesire to be
present Otn that occasion aid probhbly
a large number will attend to witness
the installation ceremonies. The leg
islature was due to convene yesterday
at noon. the delegation from this couna
ty already having gone dlown to be
present. Gov. Elect Cooper has been
bitsy on hli inaugural addross during
the past few weeks, but. no advance
Information as to its contents has
been made known, though it is gener
ally believed to he largely taken up
with an educational program for the
state.
A survey of the session, taken from
the daily papers Sunday, states that
the session is expected to run the cus
tomary forty days.
Following the organization of the
house and senate on the first day of
the session, the annual m1ensage of
Governor Richard I. Manning, who re
tires from office on Jannary 20, after
having served four years as chief mag
istrate, will ho read before both
bodles.
Inu neiither the house nor the senate
are the electIons of the offielals ex
poeted to consimne much time. In the
htouse the retiring speaker, Thomas P.
Cotitran. of Greenvilel. is expected to
he re-eelvd ont thli first ballott, pos
stbly without opposition, and thus far
1to onposit ion htas developed to ite re
election of J. Wilson G(ibbes as clerk.
"The presiding oflicer of the senate Is
Jiuius TI. TLles, lentenant governor.
"N. 1. 'Mann of Calltomn is the retir
ig secretary of the senate. He is of
fering for reelection apparently with
out opposition. Contests may develop
for reading clerk in both tte house
and senate, but It Is not anticipated
that in elther body will more than one
ballot be necessary to choose this of
fieer.
'In the senate, committee assign.

Several meetings have recently been
held in the State in furtieranev of the
plan to issue State bonds to build per
ianent highways coinecting the var
oills county seats of the State. The
aitoiobile associations of the St ate
are sponsors for file movement and
the plan is to increase the tax on Inn
tor vehicle.t so its to provide sufficient
revenu' to pay the Interest on the
hids and ( rente a sinking fund to re
tire them as they come due. It is an
tie'pated tlit the proposition will be
productive of much debate in both
branches of tle general assembly.
There is a general demand through
out the State for ituproved Illublie
schcol facilities and 'he appropil
tions to he asked for fto purpose by
tie (lducation dt-partment this year are
larger than at any time in the past.
Routh Carolhia is one of the lowest
Stat.'s of the Union in percentage o il
literacy and there is a general desire
to improve condillons, tl tidinu fth

scope to satisfy th .se w.o a re i rgin.:,
the tatewide mueiasure.
Thrie tax lanws of the State have been
a source of iore or less dissat isfac

tain that ro'm'lial legisIlation will lie

promise that the fight will he re

Early in the session a bill will 1t
