Notwithstanding. The House took
up the measure Friday and passed it
over the veto, sending it to the Sen
ate for confirmation. The upper
House also voted to override the veto
and the measure became a law. 1t
was necessary that the bill pass, as
otherwise the common schouls would
have had no appropriation except
such as was made by county or
school district special taxes. Know
ing that the one mill special school
tax bill had passed, the Appropria-
ton committees had omitted the
provision for the schools from. the
general appropriation bill. The re-
suit was chaos for a time, relieved by
the passage over the Governors
veto of the one mill tax.
The compulsory education bill,
providing for local option on COM
pulsory school attendance, passed by
both Houses and returned with the
Governors veto. was not so success
full. The bill, l,vetoed by the Governor
and sent back to the Legislature,
Saturday, was passed by the House
over the veto, but the Senate refused
to confirm the action of the lower
branch, the vote falling short of the
necessary two-thirds. This killed
the bill.

Two reports of special interest
were presented to the Legislature
during the week just past. One,
presented Thursday by House COM
mitree, called attention to lack of
discipline and other undesirable con-
ditions at the Soldiers home, the
State institution for INDECENT Con-
federate veterans. The report also
recommended that members of the
board of trustees be debarred from
holding salaried positions in the
home. 1t was pointed out that Maj
Hal w Richardson, one Of the trus-
tees, had been elected superintend-
ent of the Confederate home at q
salary of S100 a month. This, it was
pointed out, was wrong in principle
and should not be allowed.
The other report was the out

Washington, D. c.,

County Record,
kingstree, S c.
Sir: Your attention is invited
to amended Paragraph 3, Section
1876 of the postal laws and regu-
lations, appearing in the December,
1911, Postal Guide, reading as fol-
lows:
THE right of publishers to ex-
tend in good faith credit on sub
scriptions is recognized and will
not be abridged, and although all
subscriptions are regarded as ex-
piring within the period for which
they were obtained, nevertheless, in
order to give an opportunity to Sc
cure renewals, copies of their pub
lications will be accepted for mail
ing as to subscribers at the usual
second class rates of postage for a
period of one year from the date of
expiration; but copies after one
year from date of the expiration of
their subscriptions, unless such
subscriptions be expressly renewed
for a definite time, together with
an actual payment of subscription,
or a bona fde promise of payment,
will not be accepted at the pound
rate, but will be accepted at the
transient second class rate Of one
cent for every four ounces, or frac-
ton thereof, prepaid by stamps af-
fixed"
The Third Assistant Postmaster
General also cites our attention to
the following statute, act of March
4, 1909:
Any person who shall submit,
or cause to be submitted, to any
postmaster or to the Postoffice De-
partment, or any officer of the pos
tai service, any false evidence rela-
tive to any publication ior the pur-
pose of securing the admission
thereof at the second class rate for
transportation through the mails,
shall be deemed guilty of a misde-
meanor, and for every such offense,
upon conviction thereof, shall be
punished by fine of not less than
one hundred nor more than five
hundred dollars.
The Third Assistant Postmaster
General goes on to say:
In order that the Department
may ascertain whether the regula-
ton is being uniformly complied
with, you are requested to furnish,
with regard to the circulation of
the next issue of your publication,
the information on the reverse side
of this Sheet.
The information on THE reverse
side of this sheet" comprises the
number of copies of the paper sent
through the mails and the number
of copies sent to subscribers who

ness of the editor, we have not been
able to look after our mailing list

Doesn't Want Bryan in Cabinet.

Washington.-Very tactfully but
nevertheless firmly it has been in
timated to President-elect Wilson
that the appointment of William Jen-
nings Bryan may create an embar-
RAISING situation as between the
State Department and Congress.
This may be due to the chance
that Mr.. Bryan as Secretary might
have to deal with a. Senate Commit
tee on Foreign Relations and a
House Committee of Foreign At
fairs, both of which will be dominat-
ed by men who are. unalterably op-
posed to Mr.. Bryan. Just how
strongly this intimation has been
made cannot be learned, but that it
has been made is not denied. There
has been no comment ON it by the
President-elect.

Columbus, o., March 30.-The work

of bodies recovered from the water
to fifty-six. The water was subsiding
rapidly and the work of rescue was
thus easier.
Scores of big transfer wagons trav-
ersed the inundated streets of the flood
district, carrying relief to the hum
dreds marooned in the upper stories
of houses. Many refused to leave
their homes, declaring that the worst
was over and that they wished to stay
with their property.
The military authorities allowed
hundreds to return to their homes in
the flooded area to make repairs and
clean up their houses. The health a,,-
thorities took charge of the cleaning
up process. Parties of searchers were
organized to penetrate the great drifts
of debris extending along the flooded
river as fast as the water goes down

have been received by Governor
Dunno and Adutant Dickson indicat-

in immediate danger of being washed

Governor Dunno has sent rush or
der for 1000 troops to proceed by spe-

ceived by the governor from Sheriff
Frasier and Mayor Parsons of Cairo
describe conditions as extremely
alarming. Fears were expressed that
the levee might break at any minute
with an inevitable heavy loss of life
and an immense property damage.
In talking over the telephone with
Governor Dunno, Mayor Parsons stat

ing residents to move to higher
ground, the number of those who
have taken this advice has been Off
set several times over by thousands
of refugees from all along the river
