EDITORIAL LCORRESPONDE DENCE.
Colum bia, February 9.--The general
appropriation bill has been presented
in the House and yesterday and last
night was spent in discussing it The
Legislative supply bill it is said will be
presented tomorrow. That means that
adjournment is getting to be in sight.
Last night, however, the Senate re-
fused to adopt II resolution to adjourn
on l7th. Consideration Of the rcsolu
tion was postponed to next Tuesday.
Adjournment by the 17th is out of the
question. My judgment now is that
final adjournment will be had on the
25Lh. That of course is conjecture.
*x&
No discussion of any of the liquor
bills has been had. They have been
postponed from time to time and are
now not to come up for Il day or two.
The way In which all these matters
have been postponed confirms the opin-
ion expressed in my notes of Tuesday
that at this session nothing will be
done with the dispcnsary. There is,
ho"SNci, nv way VI NSiiihS J"S' "''''
would be the result il tho question
were squarcly brought up on leaving
the matter to the people Of each coun-
ty to say whether they wanted prohi-
bition, high license or dispcnSary. That
would be local government. leaving
it to the people Of each county 10 say
what they wanted.
Ky
Senator Appelt Of Clarendon. who
has been an ardent supporter OF the
dspcnsury, last night introduced \ bill
to submit the question 10 the voters OF
each county. In IN interview published
this morning he says he is induced TO
DO this on account Of the great politi-
cal iuiluencc which the dispcnsary Is
assuming and on account Of the action
of certain members of the board work
ing for and against certain candidates
for pOsi;On on the board, and further to
let the people say what they want. His
bill, in my Judgment, is Il good one,
but do not believe anything will be
done at this session.

The usual fight for and against APP
preparations for the State colleges is
now on in the appropriation bill.
