Crippled Industry.
Phosphate Business Needing
Legislative Relief.

Below is given the copy of petit
tion in regard to an important matter
presented to the State phosphate
commission yer.erday for transmits
sion to the general assembly:
To the Honorable Senate and House
of Representatives of the State of
South Carolina:
The undersigned citizens of Beau
fort, Port Royal and the sea islands of
South Carolina do respectfully and
earnestly petition your honorable
bodies with the desire to call your
attention to the existing condition of
the phosphate industry on the sea
islands
This industry, once so prosperous
to the interests of the State and the
entire people Of this section is now
reduced largely by deposits being
discovered in Florida, Tennessee
and other foreign countries that the
price of rock has been brought SO
low by competition that the miners
are compelled to reduce the out
put and some to close altogether
and sell their valuable plants at a
great sacrifice. That unless some
relief can come to the few companies
now doing work in mining phosphates
in the waters of this State they will
be'compelled to abandon the business
This would cause great loss and en-
barrassment to all the people cn those
sea islands and great suffering and
want to the working people who have
been for so many years past depend
ent upon this important industry Tor
livelihood
We would most earnestly urge
upon your honorable body TO reduce
the phosphate royalty to % cents per
ton, as the phosphate Inspector has
suggested in his report. This may
be the means of stimulating again
the great industry to the benefit Of
the State and the people depending
upon it and preventing further dis
aster by the closiog up of other
plants, for it is well known that if
once stopped they are seldom re-
newed
The condition of business on the
sea islands since to big storm Of 1893
has been most deplorable the loss to
the phosphate industry in dredges,
lighters and shore was very great.
taking many months to get to work
again, and thousands Of dollars in
money to renew property and repair
machinery; that the entire people
we've reduced from condition of
prosperity and progress 10 one of al
most abject poverty; that hundreds
of lives were lost and almost every
thirg possessed by thousands Of the
people was swept away, so that they
were compelled to seek the aid Of
the State and the charity Of the
whole country Since that time this
great industry has been growing less,
wages being reduced to the lowest
point and nothing has come to help
repair the great loss of three years
ago Therefore we trust that you
will do all in your power to aid the
citizens of this section by helping to
revive this important mining and
manufacturing industry of the sea
Islands
The phosphate commission heard
argument yesterday in regard to the
reduction.

The repeal Of the law prohibiting
the use of free passes on railroads by
State officials and members of the
Legislature is not creditable to the
House of Representatives A mem
Der of the Legislature should not
make use Of free pass in any Cir.
cnmstances, and it should not have
been necessary to prohibit it, but
s:nce the law is on the statute book.
to repeal it has the appearance of
an intimation to the railroads that
passes will be acceptable The
members had nothing to gain by re
peaIipg The law, unless they mean to
accept passes and place themselves
under obligation to the railroad cor

SO. The Legislators who voted
