WILL TAKE NO PART
IN BOND REFUNDING

Many members of the Legislature of
1911 and II came here without a spark
of craftsmanship or political respecta.
bihty in their bodies, and their whole
action and effort was to endeaver to
humiliate and defeat me. They failed
in both. Many of them were igno-
miniously kicked out and retired to

and l do not propose to be bound by
anything they did, and | do not pro-
pose to be bound by any action of the
Supreme Court that | believe was Ia
ken on account of political prejudice
to me, and for that reason | do not
propose to have anything to do with
the bond refunding matter, transfers
of stocks, certificates, or anything
connected herewith, until the Legis-
lature or 1914 meets and the whole
matter is laid before them.

will cheerfully abide by their de-
cision, because while many of them
are my political opponents, yet be-
heve that the large majority of them
are willing to do that which is for the
best interests OF the State, regardless
of their political lineup. And, another
thing, next year will be election year,
and some of them will be a little more
careful as to how they act, in view
of the result of the primary of 1912"
This, according to a dispatch to the
Charlotte Observer, was Governor
Blease's statement Saturday morning
in returning to the State treasurer
certain bonds and stocks which owners
wished to transfer.
Nothing could possibly injure the
credit of the State more than this ac-
tion of the Governor S, which is in
clear violation of the contract stated
on the face of the certificates of stock
and the bonds,' was the comment of
State Treasurer Carter. Comptroller
General Jones read the correspond
ence in the matter but made no COM

Prohibition Gets Black Eve.

Prohibition In South Carolina was
given another black eye last week
when the supreme court of the State
ruled that any person, acting as the
agent of the buyer, having purchased
contraband whiskey, is not guilty of
violation of the statutes applying to
transportation of contraband liquor by
his act of carrying the contraband
liquor to that party as whose agent he
was acting. This construction was
placed on the statutes regulating lille
gal liquor by the court in a decision
written by Justice Hydrick and con-
Cured in by Chief Justice Gary and
Justice Watts. Justice Fraser wrote a
dissenting opinion. The decision of
the city court of Anderson and the
circuit for Anderson county, holding
that the transportation of liquor sub
sequent to buying in illegal sale was
a violation of the law, in the case of
the city of Anderson against Milton
Faust, convicted of the charge, was
reversed.

Sulzer Jury Could Not Agree.

The high court of impeachment at
Albany, N. Y, which is to decide the
fate of Gov. William Sulzer Monday
failed to reach a verdict.
After session of an hour and a
half, virtually all of which was held
in secret, the court unexpectedly ad-
journed until l1:30 O'Clock Tuesday to
permit further argument by coun-
sci relative TO the testimony of Allan
A. Ryan, Ambassador Henry Morgen-
thau and Duncan w. Peck, superin-
tendent of public works.
This testimony had to do with al
legged efforts OF Gov. Sulzer to sup
press evidence against him and to OBJ
tain political influence To stop the
trial. The otfenses alleged in this
connection were not specified in the
articles of impeachment and upon the
convening of court Judge Miller of the
court OF appeals raised the question as
to where they fitted in. The executive
session at once followed.

The Mexican Situation.

The administration considers the
present situation in Mexico the gravest
since Huerta became provisional pres-
dent. His arrest of members OF the
Mexican congress, followed by sus-
pension of congress, has stirred much
anxiety in official circles in Washing
ton.
President Wilson is studying the
situation, but has not announced the
attitude the United States will take.
The action OF Huerta is similar to
that of DiaZ. 1t looks as If he is try
ing to make himself dictator.
The United States will probably in
crease the naval force at Vera Cruz.

Iron Ore on York Farm.

Iron ore has been discovered on the
farm of MIR. b. III. Massey about three
miles east of Rock Hill. Mr. Massey
recently submitted specimens of the
ore for chemical analysis to Clemson
college authorities and it has been
found that the specimens submitted
show 47.07 per cent. OF metallic iron.
In view of the fact that ore show
ing 25 per cent of iron is regarded as
workable and profitable for mining, it

an industry at the Massey place at an
