ELECTRICITY INSTEAD OF ROPE.
Senate Passes House Bill AbOlishlng
Hanging.-Provides Agricultural
Education.

Columbia, Feb. 10.-The senate, IN
an afternoon session today, passed the
bill providing for electrocutlon OF
criminals in the State penitentiary,
abolishing the practice of hanging.
The bill is now returned to the mouse
for concurrence in slight amendments.
A substitute was offered in the senate
for the house bill, this being only
slightly different froru the original.
The differences were technical largely
the chief amending clause being one to
require that at least twelve persons
shall witness an electrocution. The
bill was introduced in he house ~
Mr.. Boyd and the substitute IN the
senate by Senator W. j. Johnson. 1t
passed the house last week.
The electrocution bill provides that
q death chamber shall be furnished at
the State penitentiary and executions
shall be under the supervision Of the
penitentiary superintendent An
| amendment was offered to the sub
stitute bill to put the expense OF
transporting the criminal to the pen
itentiary on the county from which
he comes, the cost being paid by the
penitentiary officials, who will after
wards draw On the county sending the
criminal.
| The senate also passed Senator
stuckey's bill to create an elementary
! agricultural education commission and
to provide funds for It's maintenance.
This new commission will consist OF
the State superintendent Of education,
the commissioner OF agriculture, one
trustee of Clemson college, the direc-
tor of the department Of agriculture OF
| Clemson college, the professor of sec
ondary education in the University OF
South Carolina, the State superinten-
dent of rural schools, the professor
Of elementary agriculture in Winthrop
and one member to be elected an
| nually by the State Farmers Union, all
of whom shall receive So a day and
travelling expenses when engaged.
The bill provides that the commission
shall elect for two-year term State
director of elementary agricultural ed
ucation, who shall be paid salary fix
ed by the commission. This director
| may be a professor in Clemson and he
shall have general supervision of the
agricultural education nf the State.
The bill makes an annual appropria-
ton of $4,000 for the administration
of the commissions duties to be diVid-
ed among the different schools and
phases o. the agricultural education
of the State. Several senators spoke
| in favor of the bill and others op-
posed it. Some opposed consideration
today as many Of the senators were
absent, and they thought bill that
carried such heavy appropriation
should be considered by full senate
It was thought, however, that if the
| bill did not pass this afternoon it.
would not likely stand chance OF
passage next week and the majority
of those present voted to send it to the
house.

Was it EHjab,
Elias or
Elisha?

Some days ago this Office received
a card from some anonymous friend
which tenderly told of an error Il. G..
Baker made in quoting the Bible
when he related his bear story. The
card without signature was sent to
Mr. Baker at Fort Morgan, Colorado,
and here is his reply:
To the Editor:-The card enclosed
reached me this morning relating to
absence of memory in quoting Bible
history in my late bear story, and it
may be that my anonymous critic
from continuous and applied reading
has kept more IN touch with matters
and affairs. If it were either Elijah,
Elias or Elisha, they and myself be-
long on the same baldheaded row and
should have feeling in common, al.
though they antedated nv advent
into this vale of tears a few centuries.
Regards to any old inquiring
friends.

THE LITTLE PATRIOT.

A 10-year-old boy, writing his first
letter, probably, to "the paper" is
worried because the dear old Liberty
Bell is liable to fall to pieces. He sug-
gests that it be grit with a gold band.
Long, long ago, son, those without
a spark of your pure love of country,
choked poor Liberty Bell with gold
band so thick that some times some of
the older ones despair of hearing 1t
ring its clear note of 'equal rights 10
all, special privilege to none"
Still we are glad the small boys have
reverence and hope. To them must
be left much of the heavy task OF
rescuing Liberty from it's golden
manacles. And we believe they will
be equal to it. We do not propose to
let the. message of that bell die. The
American boys will help-Madison

A farmer writing to the Baraboc
News ventures the opinion that the
proceeds of the income tax will not
make up for half of the loss on person
al property. The loss will have to be
recouped by increasing the tax on real
estate, and how will the farmers like
that? People who don't like the in
come tax are not confined to those who
pay taxes. The large number whose
income is too low to tax hut must be
reported have the trouble and expense
of making out the return. One way
to proceed effectively against the in.
come tax is to work for the election to
the next Legislature of men who are
committed to its repeal.
