Woods of Marion as the successor to Judge Na? than Ooff of Wool Virginia as judge of the Fourth circuit. There was much gratification shown here i>y the friends of Judge Woods, who have heen watching for this ac? tion as soon as it was ascertained that the nomination had heen favorably acted upon. Kver since a disbarred attorney of South Carolina came to Washington about six weeks ago and attempted to have the senate commit? tee on Judiciary reject the nomina? tion, friends of Justice Woods have been eager to see the matter reach its llnal stage. After the committee made Its report In the matter about three woks ago, there were still fur? ther delays caused by the efforts of others to see whether or not an ar? rangement could not be effected by which Congressman Davis of West Virginia might secure the Woods nomination and the latter be put into a new place which congress is expect? ed to create at an early date. This did not go through, as today's action Indicates, and Justice Woods is now ready to assume his seat on the fed? eral bench, all necessary red tape hav? ing been dispensed with. Senator E. l>. Smith and others hero who have been Interested In the matter expressed their satisfaction at the confirmation this afternoon. PLEASURE to st.vtk. Woods' Confirmation Will Dring Satis? faction. News that the senate has confirmed the nomination of Charles Albert Woods, now associate justice of the South Carolina supreme court, will bo received with pleasure not only by members of the bar but by many oth? ers. Justice Woods is 63 years of age and was horn in Darlington county. He graduated at Wofford college In 1872 and practiced law in Marion county for years.

FLUENCE LEGIflliATION TO BE INVESTIGATED. Action Determined upon at After* IIOOll Session After Several Senators Had Shown That Organised and Vigorous Work Was Hoin^' Car? ried on by Interests. Washington, June 6.? The senate "lobby" investigating committee de- , cided tonight to extend its present in- I qulry Into a sweeping investigation of I all organized efforts that have been made to influence action upon legisla? tion Of any kind pending before cen gress. or under consideration in the recent past. This action was determined upon at the end of the afternoon session, after several senators had added to the testimony already given tending to show that well organized and vigorous work is being done by commercial in? terests upon the sugar, wool and other tariff issues. The committee decided to subpoena practically all persons thus far mentioned by senators as among their "tariff callers;" and to learn the exact nature of all organ? ized work that Is being directed to? ward intluencing any member of con? gress upon any subject. Efforts of the committee will be centred at llrst upon the suga.* fight, next upon wool, and after a full investigation will be made that will take in activities of prohibition and liquor "lobbies," the Alskan railroad forces, labor unions, farmers' protective organizations and all other organizations that have carried on publicity campaigns, end? less chain letter writing or other means of intluencing members of the senate or house. Senator Overman, chairman of the committee, said today that he be? lieved the investigation already had established the fact that powerful in? fluent es was wielded uPon senators by the organized forces conducting cam? paigns to mould or influence public opinion. This, he said, constituted a "new style lobby" of tremendous power. Senator Heed, a member ?f the committee, sent word to President Wilson during the day that He be? lle ed the testimony of Senator Rans dcll und other witnesses fully estab? lished the truth of the preside nt's* re? cent statement. Upon which the reso? lution for the investigation was I based, that a powerful lobby existed In Washington, at least upon the sugar tariff issue. The dlSCUSSlon of the committee to? night has so broadened the scope ?l Its work that members don't know when the Inquiry can be concluded. The ten day limit fixed by the Cum? min's resolution will expire tomorrow night, but Senator Overman will ask the senate to give him unlimited time for the probe. Thus far only senators have been examined and the senate list will be finished tomorrow. The sergeant at arms of the sen? ate was directed tonight to issue many st dltlonal subpoenas for persons '.?anted as witnesses. The next phase of the investigation Will be taken UP Monday with the calling of the first men identified with the free sugar and anti-free sugar campaign, Kamee given by President Wilson, others furnished by the mem? bers of the senat?> on the witness stand and still others that have been sent to Senator Overman by outside parties constitute the list of those who have been or will be subpoenaed. Members of the senate have almost unanimously testified that no im? proper methods have been used to in? fluence tin-in and that the men who have tailed upon them are not ' lob? byists" In the sense that that term is generally used. The committee found it is Impossible tonight, however, to define a "lobbyist" or to fix a limit to its investigation. It was determined, therefore, to investigate everything that shows any sign of having been an organized or prearranged plan to in? fluence congressional action. Questions as to the interest the Mormon church holds in sugar ami woolen factories In Utah brought about it lively clash between Senator Smool and Democratic members of the committee late today. Senator |Smool said the church held a small amount of stock in the Utah-Idaho Sugar company, and In the Knight Woolen Mills company ;tt Provo; he resented questions by Senators Keea and Walsh thai lie though earm d the Insinuation thai he represented the Interests of the M or man church ai Washington. "Here in Washington l represent all the people of Utah," ho said sharply. "I don't represent Mormon or Jew or Gentile, black or white, Methodist or I Tcsbyterian." Senator lleed said he had not meant to Insinuate that Senator Smool w a the representative of the Mormon church. ? I ?on't you in a way represent the church's Stock, within tie- meaning of thli Investigation?" asked Senator Walsh "I do not," retorted Senator Smoot, ''no more than you do," Get Your Ammonia from the Air Instead of Chili, South America Since my last advertisement of May 23 in this paper I have sold the following parties "Farmogerm." v F?ease notice that my customers are the most prosperous people of our com? munity.

Write or Phone?H. W. HARBY. Agent, Sumter, Lee and Clarendon Counties. I 'S.? Senators Bmoot, Mark Smith. Shaf roth and Williams testified during the afternoon session. They produced bundles of literature sent out by various organisations and individuals. The Investigating committee Anally decided that.it would have to Pass on ??us literature and determine whether or not it was "misleading ' or would have a "pernicious effect." Members of the committee agreed that even though the raising ol money for publicity campaigns might be legitimate, the issuing of false statements or misleading public docu? ments would be an "insidious" at? tempt to Influence the public and members of congress. That detectives have in some cases been used to shadow members of congress In the interest of getting certain legislative action is a point that Senator Simmons will endeavor to establish. He asked Senator Bmoot today whether the latter knew Of any such ac tivity. Senator Smoot said he had "heard of it" but could give the committee no information. Senator Cummins declined to state what further witnesses would be pro? duced or to indicate the nature of the detective work that had been done. Senator Bmoot gave the committee the names of many persons who call? ed up??n him on tariff subjects. He said he had taken no part personally In the organisation of any light against free sugar, and he did not Un??\v of the existence of a "lobby" or the use of money further than as public advertisements Indicated it. Senator Williams, whose subcom? mittee has had charge of the income tax feature ??i the tariff bill, express? ed the belief that tin-re had been an organised effort by the insurance companies to rally policyholders against the income tax. Insurance of? ficials probably will be asked to ap? pear later. It. I >. Uowen, who signed a circu? lar produced by Senator Williams advising cotton growers to urge their snatols to support a higher duty on cotton cloth; H W. Cowan of Texas, Who has been active in the tlgh' against free meat; A W Kopp, a foremer representative from Wiscon? sin, and C. II. Mrowtl and Otto Kubl of Washington were subpoenaed to? night. Senator Johnsons subcommittee had under consideration the wool pulp and paper schedule and Senator Johnson Is* preparing a report em? bodying the views ol the subcommit? tee on tin- schedule as it passed the hottse of the Underwood bin Print paper in the Underwood lull wns placed on the free list. During the subcommittee hearings the committee was urgd by manufacturers interest? ed In Canadian wood pulp alnds to put a retaliatory duty on print paper be? cause <?f Canadian restrictions against the shipment of wool put P. Whether the committee has taken any action upon the proposed amend? ment has not been learned hut it has had the matter under consideration for more than a week. Senator Smith of South Carolina the first witness at the nisht session, said he was principally interested in a farm oi about l.r?00 acres. "I raise mostly poverty," l'e added. "That ought to be on the protected list.'" suggested Senator Nelson, and the committee laughd with the spec? tators. Senator Smith said he was interest? ed in producing cotton. He recalled the names of several persons who talked with him about the lull and mentioned B. w. Durant of Charles? ton who predicted ruin to the sugar producer! if sugar was put on th? free list. He knew no lobby. Chairman ? >verman, who left to? night for a three-day visit in North Carolina, was the next witness and the second member of the committee to giv his testimony. He supplement? ed his statement earlier in teh da) by declaring the evidence rpoduced at the hearing had convinced Iii mot the presence here of a lobby, but did not go into details and named no nu n he considered as lobbyists. The senator defied a lobby as a third house of congreaa, seeking to influence the other two in legislative matters, sometimes legitimately and sometimes in other ways. He declar? ed that while he was not certain, there seemed to be some common basis of opposition among the BUgar people and those int. rested in the cotton schedule; that North Carolin? ians intereatd In cotton had been told apparently by those who expected to be affected by free sugar, that sugar on the free lint man! rum tn the cotton producers. He said that there should he legislation to control lobbying. Chamberlain's folk*, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy.
