what Butler Thinks of Lii
ley's Charges--Former S.
c. Senator to Appear Be-
fore Congressional Com
mittee.
Washington special in the
News and Courier: When the
select committee recently ap.
pointed to consider the charges
by and against Representative
Lilley, of Connecticut, in con.
nection with the operations of
the Holland and Electric boat
companies meet again, one of
important witnesses will be Ex-
Senator Butler, of South Caro-
lima.
Last week when the House
committee on rules made its re.
port to the effect that an investi-
cation of the entire matter should
be had, the names of Gen. But
Ter, Gen. Eppa Hunton aud other
we'll known citizens were brought
into prominence by Mr.. Lilley.
He alleged that those gentlemen
had actively operated a lobby in
Washington for the purpose of
influencing legislation in favor
OF the concerns named. This
news quickly reached the Ex-
Senator from South Carolina and
he lost no time in taking tn
first train for Washington.
In discussing the matter today
Gen. Butler said that he had
nothing to hide in any way, and
that he considered it an outrage
that his name and that of other
wellknown gentlemen in different
parts of the United States should
be dragged into tho matter by
Lilley in such way as to leave
the public generally under the
impression that they had been
guilty of wrong doing, when such
was far from being the case.

that steps be taken at an earlv
date by the members of the Leg

Board OF Commissioners, to pur-
chase a site and erect necessary
buildings for the County Home
In or near the town of Lancaster.
The property now occupied as a
county home can be sold and the
proceeds applied to the purchase

The Court House building and
the Jail building are in good con-
dition and the prisoners in the
Jail are we'll cared for. All other
public buildings are in fairly
good condition.
We have examined the books
of Magistrate w. P. Caskey and.
as far as we can see, they are
properly kept.
We request that all the magis
trates In this county submit their
books to the Grand Jury for in
spection at the June Term of
this Court.
We have appointed a commit
tee of our body to examine the
books of the various county of
ticers between now and the next
