seaside city is at fever heat. These
bills are being watched especially in
the light of the fact that the Legislators
were the guests of the city of
Charleston last Friday, when several
speakers at the various social functions
of that day referred to matters
of local politics in Charleston and
asked that the law-makers al ow
Charleston to have the things she
desired.
A bill which has been introduced
in the Senate, but which it is
thought stands little chance of being
passed into law, is that to j rovide
biennial sessions of the Legislature.
The bill was introduced by
Senator Wharton, of Laurens, and
one strong argument in its favor is
that it would relieve the State of
great expense. The bill will br.ng
on a fight before it is finally disposed
of.
A bill to prevent the manufacture
nnrl ?a]p nf H^arettc-s in this State
is now pending in the upper branch
* of the General Assembly and it is
expected that it will be disposed of
in some way this term. The bill
was introduced by Senator Rainsj^rd.
An amendment has been of*Wred
which substitutes for the bill
**>ne to make it a misdemeanor for a
person to smoke cigarettes, this being
offered on the ground that the
original bill will prevent the sale of
manufactured cigarettes but will
not prevent cigarette smoking.
There is much opposition to the bill,
though those favoring it arc equally
strong.
A bill is on the calendars of both
Houses to create a State warehouse
system, the bill allowing an appropriation
of $2,:>0,000 for its establiwh
MEASURES PROJECTED.
Columbia, January 30: ?The past
week has not been as busy for the
Legislators as was week before last.
but the coming" week promises to be
full of interesting" enactments by
both Houses.

A resolution thaf will likely precipitate
considerable debate is trial
introduced concurrently in both
Houses of the legislature to make

elective by the Legislature instead
of appointive by the Governor as at
present. The office is now held by
Mr E J Watson.
There are several bills on the
calendars of both Houses for this
week which will bring forth debate

is to prohibit book-making. betting,
pool-selling and wager making.
The bill has been introduced in botn
Houses and there are many opposed
and many favorable to it enactment.
Still another bill that is to come
up in the House at an early date is
that to allow commission form of
government for cities of popula:ion
between nine and twenty thousand
ag0petween fifty and one hundred
thousand. The only city in the latter
class in the State is Charleston

the Serial >rs are ?]?:?iwc i to the bill
on the ground that the courses o
o the ret! at the Slate Hospital for the ?
Insane are deficient and that gradu- m
ates from that institution are not on .
an equal footing with other nurse- ^
graduates, and that the enactment !
of a law to this effect will not alter '
the case. Heated debate is bound )
to come before the passage of the '
bill. |

A bill that is of State-wide inter- j
est and one that has aroused the interest
of the Legislators, is that to

students in public schools and col- I
leges of the State. The bill will k
probably be disposed of the last of I
this week. |
Several matters of interest have
been enacted by the General Assembly
during the past week, which A
may be reviewed as follows: "
The House last week accepted the
; report of its Judiciary committee
' that certain portions of the Governor's
veto message on the "Libel T
bill" be expunged from the House ! M
| records. By a vote of 2d to 2 the 1 c
I House decided to expunge the ob- i
! noxious parts of the message. How-,
I ever, the House sustained the Gov-!..
. - . H
j ernor s veto 01 tnis Din. ine vote
;! was 62 to 50 not to sustain the veto,!.
in
' but this was not the two-thirds ma- j ^
! jority required to over-ride a veto, I
and the bill failed to become law. !,
; rn
The bill to Rive the Governor the j
power of appointing special Judges, i
instead of the Chief Justice, was'
I ' sj
killed in the Senate, and the law as
61
to Judgeship appointments remains
the same.
It will not be many days before r'
the appropriation bill for the coming
year will be introduced in the
House, and that will of course bring (
forth much discussion and argument, ni
It is thought that the tax levy this ~~
year will necessarily be a little ti
higher than that of last year, several a
things co-operating to make the M1
State's expenses for 1912 higher ni
than those for 1911. cc
Both Houses of the Legislature tl
are holding night sessions many fi
nights of each week, and the amount M
of business transacted during this it
session will, it is thought, be some- M
what in exceess of the average. A ir
host of bills has been put through
and hundreds are now on the cal- M
enders for consideration. In many h<
ways the present session will go o
down in history as a record maker. L
