LOCAL BILLS PASS.
Several Of Senator CilftOn's Rills Cot
Through the House Today and VIII
Become Laws.

Columbia. Feb. 1S.-Among the
uncontested bills to get through the
house today were two by Senator
Clifton extending the freight claim
law to cases Of loss Of baggage and
the other providing for referees in
counties having no office Of master in
equity.
senator Clifton's bill providing for
the election Of cotton weighers I'm

Columbia. Feb. 1s.--when the
house met tonight It was found that
the committee on conference had
been liable to agree. The representa-
tives Of the two wings worked for
two hours. but they were unable to
agree on any programme. The state
ment is made that the prohibitionists
proposed that the agreement be
made on sandwiching the bills; that
Is. to take up the magistrates bill
and then prohibition bill; take up
the supply bill and then another Of
the series of prohibition bills. This
was refused. The local optionists, It
is said. suggested that the prohibi-
tionfsts agree to take up the supply
bill and pass II and fix q day for
adjournment. and they would agree
to anything else. They would let the
prohibition bill come to a vote after
the supply bill. but wanted day Ak
ed for adjournment. There seemed to
be no hope of agreement, as the pro-
hibition leaders insisted on vote on
one Of the prohibition bills before let
ting the supply bill come up.
Tonight there was q new symptom
of a willingness to take up the supply
bill. When the house met tonight the
merry fight continued and the COM
mittees were about to meet again.
Mr.. Rucker wanted to call up the
supply bill. Mr.. Richards and Mr..
Rucker were exchanging compliments
as to who was responsible for the de-
lay. Mr.. Rucker said Mr.. Richards
had promised the house that the sup
ply bill could be passed tonight. and
that would give ample time for ad-
journmsnt Saturday. Mr.. Richards
said when he made his statement that
he had never expected the house
would still be In flibuster. The
house. he said. had spent ten days do
Ing nothing. and he never expected
such a condition. and he for one OBJ
jected to the minority debating what
bills should be taken up.
Before any vote could be taken Mr..
M. l.. Smith moved that a recess be
taken. He did not say SO, but the
evident purpose was for the commit
tee to again try to reach an agree
ment.
The committee could not agree and

THE CENSUS BILL PIGEONHoBEn
All Attempts to Pass II Over r~~sx-
dents Veto Abandoned for a rane.
At Least.

washington, Feb. 11.-Ar attempts
to pass at this time the census hI,
over the presidents veto were aban-
ooned today by leaders Of the. hsuyss
ana senate. In conformity WITH this
decision the house committee ON cssx-
sus considered the subject for a few
minutes and then adjourned to rsxse
at the call of the chairman. The bur
VIII probably remain pigeonhoIe& ma
the committee for the remaindar az
the session. :
The watchman and southron. [volume] (Sumter, S.C.) 1881-1930, 1909-02-20

the county supply bill is to be taken
up first, to be followed by the consId-
reation OF the two prohibition bills.
which are in turn to be followed nv
the magistrates bill, "aIl three bills
TO be disposed of this day."
This means that the house will pass
the prohibition bills. but there is no
nope OF getting them through the
senate. The flibuster has accom-
piished about all that the local op-
tionists most desire. The session will
END with no change in the present
system andi the referendum bill has
been sidetracked.
The watchman and southron. [volume] (Sumter, S.C.) 1881-1930, 1909-02-20

NOT taking on a question Of personal
privilege. Mr.. Whaley held that he
had no way of telling what was in the
mind or heart of a member. and he
had to leave it largely to a member
whether the speech was on personal
privilege or not. Mr.. Sawyer tried to
his hand on the qustion of personal
privilege. and made a corking good
talk against the effort to force a vote.
Mr.. Richards said Mr.. Sawyer
might as we'll quit talking, as there
would be a vote on the bill tonight
before adjournment. Meanwhile Mr..
Sawyer kept the floor and said he sin
cerely wanted to see the whiskey bus
iness properly restricted.
Mr.. Sawyer was getting well work.
ed up and talking well when several
matters came over from the senate.
Mr.. Richards offered a motion to
change the rules by a majority in
stead Of two-third vote. The rules
now provide for a two-third vote to
change the rules. The notice has to
lay over for a day. The evident pur-
pose Is to change the rules, but the
two-third vote to change the rules
will be difficult to get.
Mr.. Richards then in disgust moved
to adjourn. He expected to get a
vote tonight on the prohibition bill,
and tried hard to do so, but gave up
In disgust The fight will be resum-
ed tomorrow on the motion to change
the rules so that no notice of changes
Will have to be given, and they en-
be changed at will by majority vote.
The house adjourned at HAS O'Clock.

THE WONfEN'S MONUMENT

Columbia. Feb. 1.-THE house
today passed the Richards bill appro-
priating $500 for a monument to
the Women of the Confederacy on the
state House grounds, the appropria-
ton to be available when a similar
amount shall have been raised by
popular subscription. The bill will
nave to wait until next year to get
through the senate. The vote was 65
to -.
The watchman and southron. [volume] (Sumter, S.C.) 1881-1930, 1909-02-20

the house came back to work. Moth
Ing could be done and the conference
was without avail.
Mr.. Rucker tried to take up the
supply bill and upon a yea and nav
vote the house refused to take up the
bill by So to SO. When the house
refused to take up the supply bill af-
ter the failure Of the conference, Mr..
Bryan arose to question Of personal
privilege and defended his votes and
the fght he was making.
Mr.. Richards moved to take up the
prohibition bill and then Mr.. SAWYER
moved to adjourn and then there was
a roll call. This was followed by a
motion to take a recess for an hour,
and on this there was the chronic roll
call.
The filibuster kept up. Mr.. Ruck-
er moved to amend the motion to
take recess. This involved a roll
call, and then came a motion to re-
consider.
Mr.. Brice thought this was out If
order. but the speaker held that The
notion was in order and here came
another roll call.
Mr.. Mann argued that the motions
were out of order and wanted the
speaker to rule them out of order
The speaker held that he had to fol-.
low the printed rules. Then Mr.. DIX
on began an exquisite reminiscent
speech to mark time and give ample
time to the next roll call. He proved
to be an excellent mimic. He was
willing to take his medicine. He was
no fiiibusterer. and insisted on ria-
jority rule.
Mr.. Brice insisted that the motion
to reconsider a motion on an amend
ment to motion to recede Is not in
order.
The point was overrrulei.
The local optionists said that all
they wanted was to prevent u vote on
the Statewide prohibition bills dur
ing the normal length Of the session.
Mr.. Rucker at 1880 o'clock again
urged that the county supply bill be
taken up and passed tonight. Mr..
Richards held that the motion was
out Of order. and he objected to the
supply bill being taken up. Then
there were few more recess motions
and Mr.. Richards moved to take up
Bill S5 out of its order. Mr.. Sawyer
moved to table this motion, ond on
this motion, Mr.. Browning called a
yea and nay vote.
The house was close up 10 Bill IS
when Mr.. Mars got the floor and
made vigorous defence Of Abbeville
County, and that Mr.. C. A. Smith had
no right to attack Abbeville County.
Mr.. Richards held that Mr.. Mars was

duties when reduced to ad valOrem du-
ties ran as low as SS.65 per cent in
1899 and as high as 1850 per cent in
1901. and fell to 1880 per cent in
1907. the last year for which We have

blankets and iannels. To show how
nearly prOhibitive those rates are, IL
Is only necessary TO state that In 1907
We imported that kind Of blankets and
fiannels TO the value of 1916 only.
and the tariff on the same amounted
to $S4O.32. On blankets and fiannels
valued at more than 40 cents and not
more than 80 cents per pound the
rate in 1907 was 1862 per cent ad

worth only. and upon which We paid

"On blankets and fannels more than
three yards In length valued at not
more than 40 cents per pound the
rates in both the Dingley and Payne
bills are 33 cents per pound. and so
per cent ad valorem. which in opera
ton amounted in 1907 to 1882 and
in 1906 TO 1871 per cent In 1907
We imported blankets and fannels Of
that kind OF the infnitesimal value Of
$1,000. on which we paid tariff duties
Of S6716. Yet the trainers Of the
Payne bill. for some inscrutable rea-
son, let these prOhibitive rates stand
at a time when the deficiency in the
revenues is startling and worrying
the country. I say that the consumer
should have been given cheaper
blankets, when, had the trainers Of
the Payne bill seen ne TO have done
so. would have al the same time
brought more money into the treas
ury."
