THE INHERITANCE

Rembert Measure.

Columbia, Feb. 5.-The house
today devoted itself to legiti-

few well conducted debates of
the session and involved the
adoption in this state of the
principle of taxing inheritances.
The bill is that of Mr.. Rembert,
of Columbia, and it is substan-
TALLY the same bill that passed
the house last year and failed in
the senate. From time to time
the house has taken the bill up
and had intermittent discus
sions; today, however, there
were concerted efforts to dis
pose of the measure, and as
soon as the third reading bills
were over it was taken UP on
motion of Mr.. Mcqueen to

Just a Cold"

More people suffer from COM
mon colds than any other single
ailment. Yet no one ever dies
directly from a cold, nor does he
ever get gravely sick. Where
colds get in their work, how
ever, is in paving the way for
other more serious diseases.
The two most common diseases
that start in with "just cold'
are pneumonia and tubercu-
losis. These two diseases alone
kill over three times as many
people as die from typhoid, ma
laria, smallpox, measles, scarlet
fever, whooping cough, and
diphtheria combined, so we see
that the aftermath of lust a
cold" is no joke.
Colds are now generally
thought to be due to some
micro organisms which make
them more or less contagious.
1t will frequently be noticed
that when one member of a
family or of an office or work
shop contracts a cold, all, or
nearly all, of the others get
colds, too. Indeed, many en-
ployers insist that when an en-
ployee appears sneezing, snivel-
ing, or speaking thickly, he had
best be sent home at once, until
he has recovered. Some even
predict that a time will come
when colds will be quarantined.
However that may be, the
practical point to bear in mind
is that to avoid colds, one of the
best things we can do is to
avoid the people that have
colds.
Some people, "take cold"
more easily than others, so to
fortify ones self against colds
is of prime Importance. 1t is
simply the same old story of
keeping ones physical condition
up to top pitch. To do this,
The Lancaster news. [volume] (Lancaster, S.C.) 1905-current, 1913-02-08

strike out the enacting words.
The discussion was quite
evenly divided, some farmers
and some lawyers were in fa-
vor of the bill and some were
opposed to it. The most ag-
gressive fight on the bill was
made by Mr.. Ashley, of Ander-
son, who continued to call it the
most outrageous and unjust
measure of the year. Mr.. Ste
venson took up the fight on the
bill along legal lines.
FOR THE MEASURE.
On the other hand, this posi-
tion was combatted by DR.. c. T.
Wyche and Mr.. G. G. Wyche, of
Spartanburg, along the lines of
the wisdom and democracy of
the bill. Mr.. Youmans, of Co
lumbia, also argued that it was
along the lines of Democratic
development. Last year the bill
was separately discussed, while
this year it occasioned the most
widespread debate of the ses-
sion. The bill which last year
passed the house was today Kill
ed. The vote was quite close,
but 1T shows the changing SEN
timent and the result of an ag-
gressive fight well directed.
On the question of striking
out the enacting words of the
bill the vote stood 60 to Sc.
Last year there was hardly a
voice raised against the propo-
sition.
Since the inheritance bill was
hrst considered this year the
outlook for it's passage was bad

Fight For Senate.

Jurisdiction Over Water Power
Now in Question-Warm
Fight For Senate.
Washington, Feb. 5.-Con-
f1icting claims of the federal and
state governments to the con-
troll over water powers marked
the opening of the debate in the
senate over the Connecticut
river dam bill through which is
proposed to establish the prin-
ciple of federal control of water
power.
An agreement was made for
a vote on the bill on the legisla-
tive day of February IL, but it
is expected it will be several
days later than that when the
vote is taken. Senator Burton
of Ohio, leader of the faction in
the senate which favors control
by the government over the
rates and charges of water
powers, defended the measure
today and will resume his
speech tomorrow morning.
II he time will con wher,
there will have to b. national
supervision over these water
power rates, just as there is
over railroad rates." Senator
Burton said. "It will be neces-
sary % regard water rs well as
land as an asset of the nation
which must be so controlled as
to promote the general welfare
and as far as possible offer
equal opportunities"
Objections to the alleged in
vasion of state rights were
made by several senators in the
debate. Senator Works, of
California, insisted that states
alone should have the right to
supervise and fix water power
rates.
