Interstate Commerce
Law Provisions.
Washington, Jan 5.-The
Hepburn, Dolliver bill now pend
ing in Congress relative to tho
liquor trade is of particular in,
tsrest to South Carolina in the
effect it's enactment would have
upon the restrictions of the
dlspensary law. The measure is
designed to remove the liquor
trade frtm the privileges of the
Interstate commerce laws and put
Its control entirely within the
power of the individual States.
The bill provides that all fer-
mented, distilled or other intoxi-
eating liquors or liquids trans>
ported into any State or Territory
for delivery, or remaining therein
for use, consumption, sale or
storage, shall, upon arrival with
in tho boundaries of such State
and after delivery, be subject to
the operation and effect of the
laws enacted in the exercise of the
States police powers to the same
extent and in the same manner as
though the liquids or liquors
had been produced inside the
State, and that they shall not be
exempt by reason of being intro
duced therein in original packages
or otherwise.
The bill provides, further,
that all corporations or persons
engaged In insterstate commerce
shall, as to any shipment or
transportation of fermented, dis
titled, or other intoxicating liquids
or liquors, be subject to ali the
laws and police reg llations with
reference to liquor or Shipment
OF tho State in which the place of
destination is situated, and shall
not he exempt by reason of the
liquor being introduced in the
State in original packages or
otherwise.
1t Is understood that there will
bs an organized campaign by
temperance and religious societies
throughout the country in favor
of the bill. Already number of
petitions to Congress in it's sup
port have been received. The
bill was introduced in the House
by Mr.. Hepburn of Iowa and in
the Senate by Mr.. Dolliver of the
same State.
If the bill is passed and stands
the test of the courts the importa.
tion of liquor into South Caroli-
ma in original packages, even for
individual use, will be unlawful,
as the provisions of the nispen-
sary law of the State will become
operative upon the imports i'm
mediaiely upon their crossing the
State line, irrespective of the
interstate commerce act which |
now protects them from confisca-
tion.

THURSDAYS PROCEEDINGS.

kells bill providing for record
or every birth, marriage and
death in the State, was killed. 1t
had no bearing on the present
marriage law, but objection vas
raised because it was claimed to
be an opening wedge to the divorce
law and it died accordingly.
Nearly an hour was wasted by
long, wrangliug debate on Mr.
Doole's bill to prohibit treating
on election day. The debate
showed strong prohibition ten-
dency, and the bill finally went to
third reading.
The question of reducing the
privilege tax on fertilizer, the
fund from which goes to the sup
port of Clemson College, brought
forth much discussion, but was
finally passed over for future con-
sideration.
Tue twelve>hour bill for rail
road employees was introduced in
the House by Mr.. Blackwood and
in the Senate by Mr.. Hydrlck,
both from Spartanburg. 1t fpro-
hibits railroad from keeping an
employee on duty more than -
hours and provides penalty for
any violation.
Mr.. Morgan of Greenvilie in
treduced bill today to place all
telephone companies under the
Jurisdiction of the railroad com
mission. This body will have
power to regulate rates, to COM
pei connections at intermediate
points, and the fixing of rates
relative to local as we'll as to long
distance service.
FRIDAYS PROCEEDINGS.
Columbia, Jan. .15-The House
waded through the calendar today,
received a number of new bills
and resolutions, and decided to
meet early tomorrow and adjourn
until Wednesday noon. The Sen,
ate did nothing.
The real work of the session
will not begin in earnest until af-
ter the dispensary and other cleo
tions which will take place Thurs
day. Tuesday is legal holiday,
which accounts for the recess.
Mr.. Whaley, of Charleston,
introduced the bill to give the
railroad com mission greater pow
ers in fixing freight rates.
In the Senate MIR Bryce intro
luccd bill which permits towns
to vote out a dispensary after it
has been established.
The Senate baggage bill was
brought in and although it was
defeated yesterday it passed to-
lay, the weight for FREQ baggage
osing made 200 pounds instead as
1T present.
The fight for dispensary honors
increased in fury today. There
s evidently determined effort to
defeat H. II. Evans, for chairman
Of the beard. Evans is opposed
BY County Treasurer McDurmot,
Of Horny, who is willing to quit
hat Office for the small salary as
commissioner. Black and Tatum
ire candidates for commissioners,
)ut the chances seem to favor the
election of both Evans and Tatum.

Democratic National Committeeman
Mack Makes Clear Exnct Stntus
of New Committee In Regard
to the Presidential Nominee.

ST. LOUIS, July Il. dispatch
from Esopus, N. Y, says x-President
Cleveland has expressed his attitude
toward Alton b. Parker in the follow
ing telegram from Buzzards Bay:
You must permit me to express my
gratitude and admiration for the splen-
did manifestation of honor and courage
you have given to your countrymen and
to the Democracy in your st. Louis
dispatch"
National Democratic Committeeman
Norman e. Mack of New York has sent
the following message to William +.
Sheehan, at New York, making clear
the exact status of the new national
committee and when it will hold its
first regular meeting in order to dispel
all rumors that have arisen regarding
the organization of the new committees:
Senator James X. Jones will, under
the instructions given him by the reso-
luton passed by the convention Satur-
day night, call a meeting of the nation
nj committee as SOC as he confers with
Judge Alton b. Parker, the nominee of
the party for president, and his friends
and learns from them the date fixed
for notifying the nominees of their Sc
lection by the convention.
"He will then call a meeting of the
national committee to be held in New
York city, it being Judge Parker's wish
to meet as many as possible of the Ia
tional committeeman in attendance
upon the meeting.
ut is for this purpose that Chairman
Jones will first consult with Judge Par
ker In order to make the dates of the
notification and the national committee
meeting coincide, and thus afford the
candidate an opportunity to meet the
men who will lead his campaign in the
various states.
Eat this meeting the national COM
mittee will elect a chairman, secretary,
treasurer and sergeant at arms. The
committee will then take up such other
matters as may properly come before
it at that time. The national commit
tee will, of course, consult Judge Par
ker and his friends before organizing.
$50 many garbled reports have been
sent out that / deem it necessary to
make this statement, as made to me
by Chairman James X. Jones, who has
been chairman of the national commit
tee for eight years."

NO FORMAL TOUR.

Parker Will Resign as Chief Judge
mt Once.
ESOPUS, N. Y, July 12.-Judge Par
ker will resign as chief Judge of the
court of appeals either coincidentally
with the delivery of his letter of ac-
ceptance or shortly thereafter. While
there is nothing in the letter of the
constitution or laws to compel his resig-
nation, he thinks the spirit of the con
stitution is clearly against the reten-
ton Of the judicial office while he is q
candidate, and therefore he has deter
mined to resign.
The judge has also been thinking of
what part he will take in the campaign,
and he has about decided that he will
not make the traditional swing around
the circle. He may visit a few of the
principal cities Of the country, but as
he feels now will not arrange q formal
tour. His personal preference is said
to be to remain at his house at Rose
mont during the greater part of the
campaign and there receive visiting
delegations as did Mckinley at Canton
during his candidacy. This programme.
however, has not been definitely adopt
ed and may be changed when the Judge
consults with the national committee
and his political advisers.
