enthuse over the effects or the changed

passing made some phases OF the game
resembling basket ball. There was much

ferocious scrambling for the ball when ~

the game did not seem 10 tire the players

AN IMPORTANT DECISION.

Judge George E. Prince rendered a
very important decision last week,
which, if it is confirmed by the su-
preme court, will be Of general inter-
est. He holds that the act Of the leg
islature which exempts confederate
veterans from the payment OF the IL
eense tax is unconstitutional. The
case comes from the mayor s court at
Laurens. A confederate veteran by
the name Of Anderson undertook to
do business at Laurens without pay
ing the license tax, and the mayor I'M
posed fine, holding the law unconstl-
tutional. Judge Prince IS quoted by
the Anderson Mail as saying: "ln
my Judgment the law is unconstitn-
tional, and that is all there is to it. I
realize that the decision, if it stands
will work hardship on great many
Confederate veterans, but the law and
the constitution we're before me, and
I could arrive at no other decision. 1t
is hardly necessary for me to say, l
suppose, that I have as much sympa-
thv for the Confederate veterans as
any man in the state, but judge has
to do his duty as he sees it, just as
other people have to do, and l have
simply discharged my duty as [ saw

THE LEGISLATURE CLOSES.

The legislature Of South Carolina
reached final adjournment on Satur-
day night at II 81, by the legislative
clock, but by our watch at 3:2o a. m.
Sunday morning.
A great deal of time Of the session
was taken up with the discussion of
the dispensary, and the question was
not finally decided until the last night
Of the session, though everybody ad-
.nitted that nothing would be done
inasmuch as the senate stood pat for
the state dispensary patched up, and
the house stood pat against the state
institution. This action. or rather,
non-action will put the issue squarely
in the state and county campaign
during the coming summer.
In the matter Of taxation, one or
two propositions were submitted. One
of them was to give the state board
Of equalization authority over person
al property. Another was to adopt the
views of Comptroller General Jones
not to fix any levy in the supply bill,
but to leave that to a committee COM
posed Of the comptroller general, the
chairman Of the ways and means
committee Of the house, and the
chairman of the finance committee IN
the senate. The idea in this PROPOSE
ton was that the assessments this
year were going to be much larger
than they have been before, and the
levy should be reduced, but the mem
bers of the house seemed to prefer to
fix the levy for the state and their
counties in the usual way.
The state levy this year is five
mills. The levy for ordinary county
purposes in Newberry county is three
and one-half mills. There was a de-
cided spirit of iberality in the mat
ter Of appropriations in the present
legislature. And very little opposl-
ton showed itself to any Of the ap-
preparations asked. The amount for
Confederate veterans was increased
to $225,00O00.
The act providing for reforma-
tory for white boys was passed and
an apropriation of $4,50000 made for
its maintenance.
$4,000 was appropriated to make
an exhibit by the state at the James
town exposition, which is to be held
in 1907.
$4,000 was appropriated for the
purchase Of the old guard-house at
Charleston for the use Of the citadel
academy.
The salaries Of the solicitors and
stenographers were raised and made
uniform.
100000 was appropriated for the
Confederate Home school Of Char
lesion.
$4,000 was appropriated to pur-
chase fifty copies Of DR.. Elzas's his
tory Of the Jews in South Carolina.
Sl2,50O00 was appropriated for
the expense Of the investigation COM
mittee of the dispensary, and so on,
making the appropriations over one
and one-quarter million dollars.
A law was passed providing for
state bank examiner, but the banks
are to pay the cost Of this office just
as the railroads pay the expense OF
the railroad commissioners.
