JENNINGS ASKS INVESTIGATION.
Questions Blease's Statement About
State Loan-COncurrent ReSOlu-
ton introduced.

Columbia, Jan. ia memorial
from State Treasurer r. Fl. Jennings S
was presented to the senate today, by
Senator W. L. Mauldin, of Greenville,
in the form of joint resolution, call
ing for the appointment Of a commit
tee of Investigation to be composed of
two members of the senate and three
members of the house, to look into
the facts surrounding the borrowing
of the S500,000 by the State for run
ming expenses and which the governor
claimed credit for in his annual mes
sage. Mr.. Jennings took exception to
this and the result is the demand for
an investigation of it and to ascertain
to whom the credit belongs by COM
mittee of the general assembly. The
whole matter was referred to the fin
ance committee, Of which Senator
Mauldin is chairman.

The letter, which Treasurer Jen-
nings addressed to the general assem-
bly,, refers to the following part of the
governors annual message: EYour at

the assistance OF J. Pope Matthews,
cashier of the Palmetto National bank,
of Columbia, money was borrowed at
the lowest rate we have ever had, ex-
cept during the administration of Gov.
Heyward, when a part of the amount
was secured at per cent. IN some

I come again and appeal to you. What
are you going to do about it? My
advice to you is to do something. II
you do not, then don't blame me for
what I do You are spending thou
sands Of dollars through your boards
of health to stamp out and prevent
disease, and yet in the penitentlary
you are giving them consumption to
take home to their families and friends
as THANKSGIVING and Christmas pres
ents. When their terms expire, you
say to the county that sent them, 1--WE
took him we'll and hearty; kept him
one, five, ten or twenty years, worked
him, and now We return him to you
with consumption, and il good time
will tax you to help stamp it out"
sIt must be remembered that
though a prison the State penitentiary
is connected through its inmates with
every section of the State and num-
bers among those inmates unfortunate
representatives of the best families
in the State. Prison walls can never
break the ties that are touched here
or separate the suffering in and out
of prison. Shall the State aggravate
that suffering by permitting or impos-
ing conditions which make the impris-
onment fnal-eternal? Have not
those out of prison also some claim
OF right on the State?. The right to
have those dear to them humanely
treated-their health and lives pro-
tected? When such has not been done
the very citizens upon whom the State
must rely for her support have been
wronged. When by her own act
health has been seriously impaired
but life has not been taken, the State
should atone for the wrong done even
to the extreme extent of her power.
Men, though prisoners. are still sub
jects Of the State, and have rights
that the State must respect and pro-
tect. Duty and humanity demand it"
On the floor of the house Of repre-
sentatives, February II, 1899, in dis
cussing the appropriation bill, I made
the following remarks: Il wish to be
put on record, relative to the leasing
of convicts for farm purposes, in con-
flict with farmers of the State. The
system is wrong. do not wish, how
ever, to jeopardize the passage of this
bill and as the house is very thin, 1
will simply make my motion so as to
20 on record as against the leasing Of
convicts for farm purposes" Speaker
Gary stated that he could not recog-
nize such conditional motion. The
amendment was put and lost
am still of the same opinion-the
hosiery mill should be at once clos
ed, the convicts used at the asylum
and at other State works. If you
gentlemen desire to further inNesti-
gate matters, ask that you call J. A.
Brodie, J. E. Dean, G. L. Bray, S. M.
McDill, J. M. knight an B. E. Evans,
who were at one time guards in said
institution, as Witnesses; and if 9th
ers be needed, I will name several
for you who have actually worked in
the mill and seen the effects upon
themselves and others and also give
names of men who knew these men
and their condition before they went
to the penitentiary and know them
now as consumptives.
I desire no friction, no row and no
unp1easantness, but action, and it
must be had by you or me. Which?
=. Cole. L. Blease,
Governor.

Elected on Second Ballot

Then came the election of an asso-
ciate Justice to fill the unezpired term
of Chief Justice Eugene B. Gary, the
Hon. Thomas B. Fraser, of Sumter,
being elected. The attitude of the
lawyers to this high position is shown
by the fact that four candidates were
offered for the high honor. Senator
Hardin presented the name of Judge
George w. Gage, of Chester; Senator
Clifton presented the name of Mr.,
Thomas B. Fraser, Of Sumter; Mr.
Kurtz P. Smith nominated Judge Geo.
E. Prince, of Anderson, and Senator
Francis H. Weston, of Columbia, pre-
sented the name of Mr.. Geo. W. S.
Hart, of Yorkvill.e
Then the ibal1oting began.
The first ballot resulted: Thomas B
Fraser Is, George W. Gage So, George
E. Prince 20, George W. S. Hart IL.
Then came the second and conclu-
sive ballot: Thomas B. Fraser 49,
George W. Gage So, George E. Prince
9. Necessary to elect 81.
Thus Mr.. Thomas B. Fraser, who
has for years given patient and intel
hgent service to his State as mem
Der of the house, and has been chair
man of the house judiciary committee
was elevated to a place on the su-
preme court bench. The election Will
give entire satisfaction.

SHERIffS TO ASK
UNIFORM STATUTES
National Association at St.
iul 10 Urge Laws Making
Extfadltion Easier
Elaborate Program Has Been
Arranged for the Three
Days Session

ST. PAUL, July 15.-The National
Sheriff's association, in annual con.
vention here today, Tuesday and Wed.
nesday, probably will go on record in
favor of uniform state criminal law
and outline plan whereby legisla.
lures may be induced to place such q
measure on the statute books. The
proposed criminal law VIII be one OF
the most important features consid.
cred by the convention, according to
William A. Gerber, former sheriff of
Ramsey county, and secretary-treas-
urer of the national association.
The sheriffs probably will indorse
resolution that will approve second
elective terms of Office. Mr.. Gerber
says, declaring the county police of.
ficials believe a second term always
may be filled more successfully than
a first term, when the time is spent
largely in becoming acquainted with
the duties of the sheriffs office.
The uniform criminal law, be-
lieve to be good idea," said Mr.. Ger
Der, speaking of the proposed legisla.
ton. IF such law could be adopt
ed by all states in the Union it would
mean great saving to the various
counties, which are compelled now to
stand for needless expenditures of
time and money in sending sheriffs
from one state to another for prison.
ers involved in felony cases, who fight
extradition.
Same Time and Money.
under uniform criminal law,
which would be applicable only in
felony cases, a sheriff armed with
warrants could arrest prisoners any.
where in the United States, and would
not have to ask f6f extradition pap
ers from a governor. It takes money
to fight extradition. and a uniform
criminal law would obviate not only
this but many other necessities in the
detention Of criminals today"
Fully 300 sheriffs and deputy sher-
ifs will attend the national meeting
here, representing states from all
parts Of the country and the southern
parts of Canada. Because Canadian
sheriffs are included in the associa-
tion a change OF name probably will
be made by the convention here, max
ing the organization international in
name as we'll as fact.
Delegates and convention visitors
will begin arriving in st. Paul this
afternoon, and nearly all are expect
ed to be here tomorrow noon. The
first meeting will not be held until 2
o'clock In the afternoon, when Chas.
W. Peters, Chicago, chief deputy sher-
III Of Cook county and president Of
the association, will preside.

their total of points is greater than
that Of all other nations combined.
So great has been the success Of our
