REDUCED TO TWO
PARAGRAPHS.
Stevenson Leading Fight
Against Recording the
Governors Attack
on Newspapers.

Columbia, Jan. %. BY vote OF
So to 26, the House of Representa-
tives adopted the resolution provid-
ing that the greater portion Of Gov
ernOr Blease's message in defense OF
his veto of the libel bill be expunged
from the Journal of the House.
Only two paragraphs of the mes
sage will be printed in the Journal,
} as recommended by the House judi
ciary committee.
The House today heard real argu-
ments in the consideration of the
committees report on the libel bill
veto. They were the two speeches
of the session to which preparation
and thought had been given. The
argument of Mr.. w. F. Stevenson,
OF Cheraw, was one Of the finest,
one of the most forceful and elo-
quent heard in generation on the
floor OF the House. 1t was one of
the best, most logical and we'll con-
.ceived arguments that has been
heard in a legislative body. 1t
went into current politics more or
l sss, but with it all was masterful
production and could only come
from q mind of unusual calibre.
Another speech on the subject
today was that of Mr.. George R.
Renbert, who opposed the law pre-
>viously advanced. Mr.. Rembert
made a legal argument that was
well done and clearly presented.
The position he took were presented
SiftSgood temper and with viger.

palled. yas reals sshot stuff ss&s they
Say id O caf1paign; it ripped the
newspapers and newspaper men
severely and said great many
biting things.
The House committee recon-
mended that the objections" be
boiled down to two paragraphs and
that the balance be expunged from
the permanent record, or Journal,
of the House. Then the judiciary
committee further recommended
the Act be passed over the Cover
nor's veto.
