Two Busy Weeks Have Passed. j
Columbia. January 23.--Special:
The General Assembly has now
been in session lor nearly iwoj
weeks. Although the work hasj
been persistent and continuous,j
the end is not yet in sight. The:
real issues have not been touched i
and no really important measure |
has been passed upon by both
branches of the Assembly, except
it be the resolution to extend the
time for the payment of taxes
without penalty. True quite a
number of important measures
have been acted upon independent
ly by two houses, bit* there has not
yet been any concert of action.
The disposition has been manifest
to kill of!"objectionable legislation,
and, of <oime,?be usual allowance
has to be made for unnecessary
legislation. No possible complaint '
can be made by any one as to the
disposition to work, but unfortunately
there seems to be no curtailment
of propostd legislation?the
vast majority ot the measures are
cf purely local concern, and there
seems to be no way to stop this
perennial and pestiferous flood of
local nwitters, ana vei without
these propositions the Government
would wag along just as serenely
as ever. It is pleasant to say that
no "fool legislation" has yet shown
itself. In the assemblies of two
other States there are bills with regard
to kissing, in another au Act
was passed prohibiting foot ball,
but happily no such measures have
vet been presented at Columbia.
The doctrine of Col George I>Tillman.
as to self goverment, seems
to be on the increase.
What about the session? Why
that is just about as uncertain a
thing as the ultimate fate of the
dispensary. When the members
came here no one saw any need for
more than a Ihiriyday sessionlliere
was no need before the new j
Constitution, but matters have J
jojriied along until almost two!
weeks have slipped by, and still
tliere is no dispensary bill before
either house, and the appropriation
and supply bills are still hung
up in the committee room. There
is room for radical improvemnt
along these lines, and while the
ways and means committee has
had a great mass of work, and has
had to hear from many interests,
a skeleton bill ought to be' in the
hands of the members by tne
middle of next week. So it is with
the dispensary committee, made
up of one member from each of
the counties.
While there is still no reason
why the session should last over
thiity days, the outlook just now
is that it will be longer. The dispensary
legislation seems to be
4 he bone of contention, yet if a bill
cfynes before the House, with good
endorsement; leaving the status
practically as at present and aimed
at Ike "original package" stores,
it ran be rushed through as of old
and not^yidh will be said about !
i' either; as this seems to be a
time when few want t) assume
responsibility as to dispensary
leislnlion. v
The General Assembly is as
much at sea as ever on the dispensary
question. No o$e seems able
! to solve the?pending problem. The
announcement in The News and
Courier that the judieiary committee
of the House of Kepresentatives
in Washington is unanimously
unfavorably disposed to
the Tillman-Latiner r solution has
put a decided damper on the situation,
and left but little doubt
that Judge SImonton's decision
will be sustained by the Supreme
Court. The House judiciary com
^nittee in Washington has not,
ho^everj made a report upon the
billY^d will give, a hearing id
rarttereSTu^eday, and Mr. J P K
Bryan wilKmpear against the bill,

II is very notch a case^ol'ds of the
, same opinion *tLiL
Several days ago tie ehaiYtn.Mi
ol the Housejudiciary committee
in fnhia offered a resolution
asking the Attorney General to
present Ins views ol'the situation,
in the shape of a bill. This resolution
was withdrawn, as the special
Legislative committee had already
sought the co-operation of Gen
Barber. It is understood Hief Air*
Barber lias emphatically and eour
leously declined to prepare a hills
or to be responsible lor any propoed
Ieiri--lation. He will willingly
give his advice or suggestion to the
special committee, but will not be
responsible for a bill. To prepare
a bill and then to have some one
else look after the en'orcement
makes the matter rather complex
at times.
The .special House committee
has a number of bills before it,
which seeks to solve the problem,!
I i I ....I.i Ann tK.it itlfimntc t
IM'I U?n IMlif Wilt lllitK wt?VMi|/w
go i.ifo the matter fully is that of
.Air. L'ollock. He seeks to put the
original package stores on the
same plane as the dispensaries,
especially with reference to the
signing of application-a veritable
farce now, and further proposes
that all ''original package*1 agencies
pay the county treasure 20
per cent of the gross sales.
The Senaleseem disposed to see
whether the House cannot solve
the problem for it, although the un
derslanding is that there is increasing
favor for Mr. May fie Id's bill
which proposed that the entire
Stale have prohibition as the in
itial point, and then that each of
the counties determine whether
it would like to change that to constitutional
restrictions, or the (lis
pen ary, as exemplified in the existing
lawThe
whole tendency just now is
to let matter severely alone, and
not even to pass a bill directed
against the "original package"
stores, but to await the late ot
Judge Simon Ion's decision, and
then either to wind out ti e whole
business, or to prune from the
bottom up, so as to change its entire
operation. <
Positions on the Sta^e board of
control are being vigorously sought
after-'hey musc'cef positions of
great political power to be so earnestly
desired by the friends of the
various candidates.
I have it direct that there is no
understanding between Messrs
Haselden and Williams as to
whom Mr. Haselden will support
for chairman of the board in the
event of his election as a member
of that board, if such a statement
a was made last Sunday led to
any coufusion, it may now be stated
that Mr. Williams and bis
friends deny that jLhere is any
combination or concert of purpose,
and, of course such a statement is
accepted. Mr Willianrts says that
the position of chairman of the
board is not worth absentmhle,
and that he would not bother with
it. If the board wants l$ni, it is
well and good, but he is not going
to scramble for it or any ottfier position.
. ' \
Mr. Haselden's candidacrv is not
IO De Ciouaeu or cuniuseu \yy any
pledges or promises on hus part
lo supporj any candidale for chairman
of the board. I
The indications at this julncture
| are that Mr. M R Cooper mil be
re-elected as a mem?>er at the

positions on the board are Representatives
