men who advertise are wide-awake
and on the alert and can give you
better bargains than those who do

REVIEW AND FORECAST
OF STATE LEGISLATURE.
TRIP TO CEDAR SPRINGS--SOME
MEASURES PASSED. OTHERS
PENDING.

! PENDING.
Columbia, January %, (SpeciaD:-
The present week of the sitting of
the General Assembly promises to
be the most eventful of a session
that in its earliest days has seen
much work accomplished and the
Legislators down to business with
purpose. Several important things
are scheduled to come before the
lawmakers this week and the at
mosphere about the Capitol is one
of expectancy. The present session
has been a record maker in one
matter, which, though small, has
attracted considerable comment
among the Assembly members.
From the start the two Houses have
been hard at work and little time
has been wasted since convention.
Night sessions were held during the
first weeks, whereas it has been
customary in past years to hold no
night sessions until late in the
session.
Of the important measures that
are looked for this week is the re-
port of the "3lease" dispensary
winding-up commission, appointed
by the present Governor to succeed
the Murray commission. The re-
port will be made at an early date
and of especial interest will it be in
the light of the recent passage Of
the bill, over the veto of the Gov
ernor, providing for an investiga-
ton of the old commission. The
naming of the House members of
the investigation committee last
week completes the committee, the
personnel of which is now as fol-
follows: Senate: Sullivan, Carlisle
and Clifton; House: Cary, Daniel,
! w L and Evans, j ]. This COM
mite is empowered under the new
law and will at an early date begin
the trial of the old commission
members, against whom grave
charges have been made by the
Chief Executive.
One of the most interesting mat
ters to come before the House dur
ing the coming week will be the re-
port of it's Judiciary committee on
the Governors message on the
libel bill'. The Governor sent a
long message to the House with his
veto of the bill, the communication
containing a long TRADE on the
press of the State and making severe
statements against some of the edi-
tors in particular. The message, as
well as the bill, was referred to the
Judiciary committee and the COM
mittee has recommended that parts
of the message be expunged from
the House records.
Last Friday a special train carried
the members to Cedar Springs, the
deaf and dumb school of the State,
in Spartanburg county, and the trip
was most enjoyable event. The
trip next Friday to the Citadel, at
Charleston, another great State in
stltution, will be equally interest
ing and beneficial.
Both Houses of the General As
sembly at an early date will be
stirred by a debate on the bill, in
troduced in both Senate and House,

'SIDE-L|GHTS ON
GENERAL ASSEMBLY
BY ONE ON THE INSIDE---MAT'
TERS OF GENERAL ANDLOCAI.
INTEREST TERSELY TOLD.

:. Columbia, January %: - 1t is
generally conceded that more has
been accomplished within the first
two weeks of the General Assembly
than is ordinarily worked out in a
much longer time.
The beginning of the third week
will find the session we'll under way
md in position to attend strictly to
legislative matters. The elections
the Judiciary and other depart
ents of State, which caused the
Is of so much time last year, were
beedily despatched and happily the
Isults seem to have met with favor
nth the general public.
The veto measures which have
were held over by the Governor
have duly presented, received and
properly referred to various COM
mittees. The Shoe String county
act' was allowed by Governor
Blease to become a law without his
signature. The act providing for
further examination into dispensary
matters passed over the veto practi-
cally unanimously. The few local
measures also passed with the neces-
sary two-thirds majority and some to
spare. The Jury Act, however,
failed to become law, the veto
ing sustained by the House. There
still remain among the vetoed
acts of general interest the Libel
Act" the act providing plan of dis
tribution of the school dispensary
funds and the Commission Form of
Government Act" These will GER
tainly come up for consideration
early next week, Zone has already
passed the House, and will cause
/ considerable amount of discussion.
and probably a spirited contest,
Especially on the Libel act," and
1.-THE School Fund act. The others
are more or less of local interest.
Besides these measures are the
AMT Racing" bill, the Farmers
Warehouse Valuation" bill, the new
school bill. matters concerning the
Parker Mill Merger, and still others
of almost equal interest that will
be pushed as rapidly as possible.
In all, the third week promises to
be interesting from many points of
view.
Orangeburg, Dorchester an d
Berkeley have in each House intro
duced bills providing for elections in
these counties on the whiskey or
dispensary question, asking that
said election be allowed and held on
the same day as the August primary.
While these bills seem to have con-
siderable support, it is not probable
\ yaat they will pass.
W The local legislation which will
affect Williamsburg county is the
new road law, which is simply re-
vision of the present law. The
delegation has tried to retain all of
the good features of this law, add
ing such changes as are deemed nee
essary to strengthen the weak places
of the old law. Besides this bill is

fic act, so as to prohibit the sale or
purchase of seed cotton between

to prevent book-making at races in
this State. The bill has been re-
ported favorably by the Judiciary
committee of each House and con-
siderable interest hinges about the
probable passage of the bill into
law.
Of interest in the Capital City is a
situation that has arisen over the
office of Commissioner of Agricul-
ture, Commerce and Industries. In
his annual message the Governor
| intimated his desire that the Office
of the Commissioner of Agriculture
be abolished, stating that it had &C.
complished little in consideration of
the amount of money it was spend
ing. Last year Senator Strait in
troduced bill to abolish the office
and this was reported unfavorably.
1t was recommitted and reported to
the Senate for the second time this
year. The report was unfavorable
to its passage and the bill is now
pending in the Senate. The situa-
tion is interesting, but it looks dark
for Colonel Watson, for it appears
that he will lose out, being at the
mercy either of the Legislative or Of
the Executive Department of the
Government.
A concurrent resolution of con-
siderable interest that will be pass
ed upon by both Houses at an early
date and on which the committees
have reported favorably is that to
create commission to erect for the
State Supreme Court a building to
cost 100000. The State Capitol
at present is considerably crowded
and the erection of a new home for
the Supreme Court will be means
of greatly increasing the accommoda-
tions in the State house for the other
offices.
A move made last week the Gen.
eral Assembly that will be Of inter-
est in every county of the State was
the killing in both Houses, by the
acceptance of the unfavorable COM
mittee reports, of the bill to pro-
vide for an investigation of the do
ings of the State board of Educa-
cation as to the changes in school
books, against which such general
complaint has been made in the
past year. There was opposition to
the bill on the ground that no
charges had been preferred against
the board and no investigation was
therefore necessary.
By vote of the joint Assembly of
both Houses of the General Assem-
bly, last week Insurance Commits
sioner McMaster was reelected to
his office and Miss LaBorde was
reelected State librarian.
From the result of several bal
lotings in both Houses of the General
Assembly and of the joint Assembly
it would seem that the present ad-
ministration is not supported by the
Legislative branch of the Govern
ment. By a vote of 36 to 8 the bill
to provide for an investigation of
the old dispensary commission was
passed in the Senate over the veto
of the Governor and in the House by
the vote of 104 too What is known
as the Libel bill", to make it a
misdemeanor to publish statements
of libelous nature, failed to rass
the House over the Governors veto;
the amendment to the bill to create
an industrial school for boys in
Florence was passed in the House
over the veto; a bill to provide for
an assistant superintendent Of edu-

The poultry show situation in Allan
ia is cOmplicated-and unfortunate
Out of an unnecessary and illogical
situation last year there came two
poultry shows-more than Atlanta
needed and more than was for the
good of the poultry industry in the
city and in the state.
Half hearted efforts are being made
now to smooth out this situation. If
they are sincere, they may be success
full. But come what may, the Georgia
Poultry association will hold its show
October - to November ,. in the At
lanta Auditorium Armory.
Here is what has been done already
toward giving this show:
Officers of the association have been
elected.
Dates have been set.
The Auditorium has been definitely
contracted for.
Judges have been ged.
= Coops for 1900 birds are owned by
the association.
Printed notices have been issued and
sent broadcast over the country.
The show has been virtually under
written.
Nothing can head it now. And on Oc-
tober - to November the Georgia
Poultry association the original show
organization of Atlanta will give its
ninth annual show.

The Georgia Poultry association is no
fly by might concern. 1t has been Civ
ing shows in Atlanta for nine years. 1t
has financed shows in Atlanta when
the thing seemed hopeless and when ii

to pay the losses. But the losses have
been paid The Georgia Poultry asso-
citation does not owe a debt in the
world, 1t gave Atlanta its first big
show two years ago. 1t gave another
corking good one last year 1t will give
a still better one this fall.
