Mr.. Featherstone. in his campaign
FOR the governorship, is advocating
one very important and desirable re-
form, in urging that the General AS
sembly hold biennial sessions and that
the State officials be elected to serve
four years instead of two. We should
adopt such schedule for the politi-
cal administration of the State. The
annual sessions of the general as
sembly was not necessary. The bust
ness of making laws for the State
could be transacted at a session meet
ing once in two years. and the results
would be better in every way. The
legislation adopted after two years
discussion and reflection on the part
of the people would be better defined
and more thoroughly digested than
we now have. There would be more
stability to the laws and consequently
better establishment i'm the affairs
of the people affected by the laws.
y few years ago the people Of South
favorably to the enactment of an
amendment to the constitution pro-
viding for biennial instead of annual
sessions of the general assembly.
Through some technical error. i'm no
way affecting the purpose of the act.
the amendment failed to become eff
fective, and nothing has been done
since to put the idea into operation.
The vote at the time this amend
ment was submitted showed that the
people of South Carolina desired this
change in the government, and the
hitch should have been Strengthened
out and the proposition resubmitted
and made effective. 1t is gratifying
to note that such action is now being
urged by a candidate for governor.
and we should think that Mr.. Feath-
crstone would be able to make eX-
cellent use of the proposition in COM
mendation and furtherance of his
candidacy. Charleston Evening Post
