TWO INSTITUTIONS
Governor Sends Message Relating to
Management of Confederate Home
and the Other to Teaching of
Mhlto Teachers in Negro Schools.

Columbia, S. c., Jan. 24.-Fayor-
able action was taken today by the
ways and means committee of the
house on. the joint resolution by Rep-
resentative Lumpkin, of Richland
county, providing for the co-ordina-
ton of the University of South Caro-
lima and the College for Women at
Columbia, and transferring the prop
erty OF the latter to the former.
The property Of the College for
Women is valued at S250,000 and the
resolution provides that 100000 must

the Improvement Of this college. Nine

Primary Measure Urged.
Senator Nicholson made half
hour speech on the floor Of the SEN
ate this morning urging the passage
OF his primary measure. He moved
to strike out all after the enacting
words of his original bill and insert
his substitute. The senator from
Edgcfield, pointing out that other
State had seen fit to pass laws, pro
tecting the primary, said that this
measure was by no means a partisan
one, but was designed simply to in
sure an honest vote and to protect
all persons running for office of
whatever political party. He said
that his bill was right in principle
and would be right in practice.
Even a prize fighter wants fair
rules to govern the contest" said
Senator Nicholson.
The bill will be taken up each
day after third-reading bills, and de-
bated until passed; and the senator
thinks that it will be passed.

RE.SURVEY OF THE
STATE IS PROPOSED
Compt. Jones Thinks State Should be
Re-Suryeyed for Taxation PurDoses.

Compt. Jones Thinks State Should be
Re-Suryeyed for Taxation Purposes.
Columbia, Jan. PA re-survey of
the state to show the number Of acres
in each tax district is rccommcnd
by Comptroller General Jones in his
annual report to the general assem-
bly,, made public here tonight. He says
that by cooperating with the Federal
government which is making a survey
for the agricultural department, tho
rc-snrvey could be made at little cost.
The comptroller general thinks
that the taxation on timber provid-
ing that all taxes shall be apportion-
cd between the road, school and or
dinary fund in the counties in which
the taxes are collected, is unconsti-
tutional and thinks that the taxes
should be distributed between the
State, county and school districts as
are taxes on all other property. He
also questions the constitutionality Of
the provision excepting a large num-
bcr Of counties from the act.
The threo funds under control of
the State sinking fund commission, he
says, are as follows:
The cumulative sinking fund for
reduction of four and onc-half per
cent. South Carolina brown consols,
created in 1892, is derived from the
phosphate royalty and has a balance
of $521,591 "A to it's credit.
The ordinary sinking fund has a
balance OF Sl00,4Ol24 to it's credit
and the sinking fund for State in
surancc OF public buildings, has
total assets OF $l05,92537 to its
credit. The $4,000 received from
the United States treasury on account
Of the Morrill, fund was divided equal
between Clemson College and the
State negro college at Orangeburg,
says the report. These funds are de-
rived from the proceeds Of sales of
lands given in each OF the States for
the benefit Of agricultural and me-
chanical arts, under the acts of con
SfcSS OF l3OL ana lS3U.
The permanent school fund amounts
to $GS,503.72. The interest for 1913
was $2,0O0.15.
The comptroller general says that
the sum of $59015.05 was bcqueathcd
by II. c. Clemson to the State for
Clemson college and of the amount
$5S,53939 was invested in perpetual
six per cent South Carolina stocks,
and the balance represents a small un-
invested sum, including accumulated
interest of $5S101
The credit portion from the sale Of
tho old State dspensary buildings
amounting to $l00,400 is payable in
eight annual installments, says Mr..
Jones, the first on March 1st, 1914,
amounting to $17,170 which will be
available for distribution to the schools
after that date.
The license fees last year on cor
porations amounted to $131 ,098.86. Mr..
Jones things this year this will amount
to $40, 900 He says the law Is work
ing smoothly.
He recommends that instead of the
present system of imposing a one per
cent penalty on delinquent taxes after
Jan 1st, two per cent after Feb. 1st,
and three per cent after March 7st.
that penalty Of four per cent be i'm
posed on all unpaid taxes after Janu-
ary 1st, and executions on all re-
manning taxes after March the first.
