Emigration Agents.

There was some discussion on the bill
to require emigration agents to take ont
a license before operating in this State.
The bill requires a license Of $500. Mr..
Doyle, Of Oconee, moved to kill the
bill. He thought such Legislation was
un-American. He vas opposed to
Legislation in favor Of immigration or to
stop emigration.
Mr.. Wharton, Of Laurens, said that
the bill was intended to stop emigration
agents from coming into the State and
cnticing laborers away.
There was IL general rally of agricul-
turalists at this, all of them appealing
to the Legislature to help the farmers.
Mr.. Haskell asked some Of the advo-
Gates Of the bill to explain how free
traders could support u protective meas
ure like this.
Col. Simonton This is not q pro-
tective measure, it is a police regula-
ton.
The motion to kill the bill was lost
and the bill was passed.
