We are forced to admire Johnny J..
Jones, the Branchville lawyer who
has begun on the service Of his sem
tence in the penitentiary. His only
ambition now is to be a model pris-
oner. He killed a man and is paying
the penalty for it. He realizes that
he is not above the law and would sci
the example of decent submission to
1t, now that it has overtaken him. He
killed his man and does not resist the
payment Of the debt he owes to So
ciety. If every man who felt called
to kill his fellow man would weigh the
cost first and if he decided that the
call was so imperative that he would
be willing to pay the penalty we
would have fewer killings by a long
sight and a heap better country

Columbia, Feb. 4.--Message No. Z,
that suggesting an inquiry as to 9TH
er State positions held by legislators,
has received endorsement from most
OF the press of the State. 1t is a
violation of the constitution for a leg
islator to hold two commissions,
whether these pay money or not, and

Democrats Take Another Step To Pre-
vent Power Concentration.

Washington. Feb. 1.--Another rad
ical step to prevent the concentration
OF power I'm a few hands I'm the House
was taken tonight BY the newly desis :
mated Democrats OF the ways and

pare appropriation bills. and the

not be members OF any other com
mittees than those over which they
preside.
This will add eleven to the num-
Der of members who are to be ex-
pressly limited to service on a single
conmitSee. The Democrats caucus
which chose the Ia members OF the
ways and means committee, restrict
ed them to service upon that commit
tee and gave them the power to se-
lect the other committees Of the
House. After n long session tonight
these members of the new ways and
&rneans committee determined to fol-
4ow the policy OF making the chair
{ nan OF the more important commit
lees. and particularly those that have
fcontrol over the appropriation bills,
ineligible for service on the other
committees.
The announcement was given out
by Chairman Underwood, as "the
settled policy OF this committee" a"
While the committee has not the pow
er. as had the Democratic caucus, 10
prohibit a member from serving on
another committee. Chairman Under
wood made 1t clear that the commit
tees will adhere to the rule laid down
tonight.

az the following important commit
tees; appropriations. agriculture, for
eign affairs. Indian affairs. military
affairs. naval affairs. pensions and
postorices and postroads. In addition
To the three specifically named by
the committee judiciary, Interstate

ing that the new rules committee will
