NO TEST VOTE YET
AS TO FACTIONS.
HOuJSE SUPPOSED TO BE EVEN
LY D1vIDED-.SoME BILLS Of
EERED-.JUNKETING TOUR.

Columbia, January 2O:-With one
week of the Legislature of 1918
thrown into the discard, the feature
of the first four sessions has been
the tranquil atmosphere that has
been the prevailing note. While it
was hardly expected that the two
factions that are sure to clash, SOON
er or later, would go to the mat
as soon as they reached Columbia.
many believed there would be sklr-
mishing during the first week, and
some thought, or said they did, that
the row" of last session would be
taken up just where it was left off.
Such has not been the case. With
the exception of a slight discussion
in the House as to whether or not a
Blease message should be printed in
the journal there has been no sign of
q scrap.
There is no chance to see how the
two Houses size up. for no test vote
has come to show where the divid-
ing line is between "Bleaseites' and
nti-Bleaseites." Both claims are
heard and it may be that opponents
of the administration have a bare
majority but not the necessary two
thirds to override a veto.
With the tranquility feature con-
sidered, the messages from the Gov
ernor in which he used some charac-
teristic language kept the members
awake, although no great stir was
caused in either body by their re-
ceipg.
The Senate adjourned Friday, to
meet Monday evening at s o'clock.
The county record. [volume] (Kingstree, S.C.) 1885-1975, 1913-01-23

ERNOR'S MESSAGES.

Columbia, January 16:-Organiz-
ing in fair order on Tuesday the first
"squall'' of the 1913 session of the
General Assembly came in the House
Wednesday. 1t was precipitated by
the receipt of a message from the
Governor concerning the meetings
of the special committee to investi-
gsN1Xe acts of the Winding Up COM
'missS Of the dispensary, the Attor-
ney General, the Governor and 9TH
ers. In the special message is ap-
pended the speech of the Governor
made at Chester in which he criti-
cizes the acts of the members and
sthe testimony Of the witnesses. The
Message was characteristic.
Representative George R Rembert
Differed 81 motion to receive the mes
ksage as information and PRINT 1t IN
lie journal. This provoked an objec-
Ion from Mr. Nicholson. The Repre-
ssentatiye from Greenwood took the
position that the report of the inves-
tigating committee had not been re-
ceived and that a message from the
Governor concerning the acts and
doings of the committee was prem
ature. Mr. Nicholson's remarks
brought on a colloquy with Mr. REM
bert in which other members joined.
Finally the consideration was post
poned until the report Of the CON-
mittee is received.
The second day of the session saw
another message from the Governor
giving his speeches made before the
Governors conference in Richmond
and speaking in strong language of
editorials written following the
speeches there and paying his re-
spects to newspapers generally. This
was received by the House as inform
alton and printed in the journal. An
