Columbia State, February %: Be-
cause Of the refusal Of the senate to
allow an amendment for the tax col
lected In certain counties to remain
in those counties, supporters Of this
amendment started a filibuster In the
senate last night about midnight. This
filibuster continued until 1.30 o'clock
this morning. Senator Williams
started the filibuster, making mo-
ton to adjourn, which was lost. Sem
ator Clifton then secured the floor
and spoke until Lieut.. Gov. Smith at
1.30 O'clock this morning ruled that
the motion to adjourn by Senator VIII
liams prevailed, although division
was called for. Senator Clifton offer
ed amendments providing that the
money raised In Sumter should be ap-
portioned in that county and made ar
guments along that line. Afterwards
he began reading statistics. Time af-
ter time points of order were raised
against him. At 1880 o'clock, on an
aye and nay vote Of % to 6, the senate
refused to adjourn. Mr.. Clifford then
asked that the clerk read line by line
the educational report Of w. II. Hand,
state high school inspector, a volume
Of some 200 pages, and when point
Of order was raised on this, the sem
ate refused to sustain the point. This
kept up until 100 o'clock when the
senate adjourned. When the senate
met this morning Mr.. Clifton still had
the floor. The best part of the three
sessions Of the senate yesterday was
spent in debate on the Rittenberg bill
and the one-mill tax bill for the free
public schools. The Rittenberg bill on
q motion Of Senator Carlisle was ap-
parently continued until next session.
but late last night It was found that
Senator Hough's vote was wrongly
recorded by the clerk Of the senate
and with the senator from Kershaw's
vote the senate refused to continue the
bill. The governor sent a message to
the senate last night vetoing the bill
to sell the present property Of the
State Hospital for the Insane and
transfer the institution to State
Park" The governor said In his mes
sage that he would not become party
to the nlans Of certain persons who
have been trying to get the property.
The governor asked that the bill be
postponed until next year. Senator
Laney moved to pass the bill over the
veto but the motion was lost. On mo-.
ton of Senator Appelt the message
was ordered printed in the journal
and debate deferred until today.

If the Democratic party will make
proper and wise provision under the
sixteenth amendment TO the Constitu-
ton It will be able to correct many OF
the ills from which the country now
suffers. In this way the protection fea-
ture of the tariff may be reduced to a
really scientific basis, and the heavy
tax on industry can be removed. The
possibilities of the income tax are
more potent and promising than any
other economic proposition in sight.

Three acres of the company's land
are divided into small allotments and
let out for vegetable gardens at the

Then there are vacations other
wise the employees would not be able
to keep up their high efficiency! So
each worker is given between fifteen
and twenty days vacation a year on
part pay! And cheap excursions are
especially arranged, so that these va
cations may be spent in the country.
All this because Cadbury Brothers
feel moral obligation to their en-
ployes! And yet they insist that the
economic results alone have justified
the trouble and great expense, as the
growth of the firm shows. In 1880
they had 303 employees. Today they
have over 5000.
"An indication of the high eff
cheney resulting from our Methods
writes Cadbury, is the fact that the
firm is competing with increasing
success in foreign and colonial mar
kets, although foreign competitors
pay lower wages wages of the
women workers being in some cases
not more than half those paid at
Bournvillew
In other words, this great new ex-

the boss and the worker, has been a
