regarded as one Of the very greatest
statesmen the, State ever produced.
In his message the governor said that
John C. Calhoun, of New York. was
a neighbor of Andrew Carnegie and
intimated that Mr.. Calhoun might be
instrumental in raising an endowment
fund for Clemson college were it re-
named for his grandfather and placed
under the direct control of the State.
Accompanying the message were let
ters from John C. Calhoun, of New
York, and Mrs. Floride Calhoun Lee,
of New York.
Fort Hill, the plantation Of John
C. Calhoun and the site of Clemson
college, was willed to Thos. G. Glenn
son by his wife, who was daughter
of the Great Nullifier. Clemson be-
queathed the property to the State,
together with a sum of money, on
condition that a college be established
there and named for him. The Glenn
son bequest was accepted and Glenn
son college is the result of it.
It is said that if Thomas &. Glenn
son had not willed Fort Hill to the
State, but had allowed it to go to his
wife's heirs in direct line, it would
now be the property of Floride CAL
houn Lee, of New York. In the letter
of Floride Calhoun Lee to the gov
ernor, she said that should the State

vert to her, she would be glad to deed

committe to which they were referred
prepared a substitute for the bills
of Messrsi Riley and Nicholson and
reported the Rittenburg measure fa-
vorably with certain amendments.
Mr.. Stanley and Mr.. Gasque, as sub
committee on privileges and elections,
introduced still another bill on the
same subject.
If today's session serves as any
indication of the comport Of the
House, some bill will be passed to
change primary laws, the. question is
simply one of judgment On which of
the proposed bills and amendments
should be selected as the logical leg
islation.
Only one speaker, Mr.. lrby Of Lau-
rens, took the position that the pres
ent laws are sufficiently strict and
should not be revised, and Mr.. G. G.
Wyche, of Spartanburg, introduced
a very lenient bill. Mr.. Wyche CIV
ing it as his opinion that only slight
revision was necessary.
"The bill introduced by the judici-
ary committee has been prepared with
the cooperation of Governor Blease,'
said Mr.. Stevenson, of Chesterfield, in
defending the bill. Mr.. Stevenson
took up in detail the bills introduced
by Messrs. Riley and Nicholson and
pointed out what he thought were
their principal weaknesses and which
he said did not appear in the COM
mittce bill.
I'm the first place the bill of Mr..
Riley provides no salary for the
county registrar and places in the
hands of single man the power to
decide whether or not citizen OF
the State shall be enrolled to VOTE"
said Mr.. Stevenson. 81 am of the
opinion that we could not get capa-
BILE man to take the office absolutely
without pay. and further that the
board of commissioners should con-
sist IF more than one man."
MIR. Stevenson then explained the
committee bill. Briefly, its proys-
ions are:
That all political parties in this
State which poll as many as 10000
votes for the head Of their ticket
Shall be entitled to have registration

killing of Ducks is Prohibited by Law
After February 16

James Henry Rice, Jr, United
States inspector of birds, has sent
out the following notice from Wash
ington:
1.-The biological survey, of the de-
partment of agriculture, desires to
call attention to the ending of the
open season for ducks. The season
closes on February 16, after the kill
ing of ducks will be unlawful. The
penalty is fine of 800, or imprison-
ment, or both, at the discretion of the
court.
1T is further desired to impress the
fact that all migratory insect-eating
birds are protected by federal law.
Especial attention is called to rob-
ns and meadow larks, both of which
come within the provision of the stat
ute. These birds are regarded as val
liable to agriculture, as their food
consists largely Of insects injurious to
field crops.

Columbia, February 5.-Primary
reform and the best means to secure
it occupied the attention Of the
House this morning for most of the
session. Four bills having this gen.
eral purpose are on the calender and
amendments were introduced today
which will have the effect practically
of bringing new measures before the
consideration of the body, as they are
of so sweeping a nature as to be
considered hardly as amendments but
as bills themselves. Nothing definite
was done today on either of the bills
and they went over for consideration
at the night session.
Mr.. Riley, Mr.. Nicholson and Mr..
Rittenburg have prepared measures
