early in the evening while the latter
was carrying a large lump of coal to
the side of the right of way. Gift

Later in the night Taylor became
more bold in his work and by 10
O'clock had moved more than 700
pounds of coal to his plant near the
right of way Then the officer made
the arrest. When searched it was

carrying concealed weapons.

stealing hides from Claude Hixon.
The mysterious part of the affair
last night was this: When the Of

right of way had mysteriously disap-
peared. Taylor's confederate, evi-

The oil industry in Tulsa and Payne
counties boosted the price of farm
ing land from $40 and $40 the acre
to 5000 and in many instances as high
as $4,000 the acre. The same thing
will obtain in Logan county if oil Is
struck. But oil is not wont to bubble
up out of the earth unaided. 1t IS,
perforce, necessary to drill.
Therefore the thing to do. natural
ly, is to boost the oil game in Logan.
Oil is underneath and can be brought
to the surface if the effort is made.

Oil company are optomistic; they be-
lieye firmly that oil is here; they

was one Of sarcasm, abuse and ridi-
cule for Blcase; that he could not sit
still longer, and that he had to speak
regardless Of the circumstances or
results" He charged that the report
or the committee was one Of "glaring
Injustice" Discussing the details of
the report, Governor Blease denied
he had tried to oust J. w. Babcock
as superintendent; that he had waged
a fight on the character of Eleanora
b. Saunders, NJ d., and that his
"underlings and satellites" had tried
to manipulate the sale Of the old asy-
lum property. He said on these ques-
tions the committee had "dodged the
issue" He claimed that he had "step-
ped into the breach" and saved DR.
Saunders from being dismissed as an
assistant physician at the hospital
He criticised the members OF the
committee as being towards" and
charged that members had been most
unfair. He referred to the fact that
two Of his supporters had signed the
report, but stated that all men were
liable to make mistakes at times. At
this point he said something about
some people being clothed in wolves
cloths"
At this point in the address, Mr..
Barnwcl, member from Charleston
rising to point Of personal privil-
ege, raised the objection that the gov
crnor was not giving information
bearing on the condition Of the gov
ernment.
For the second time Speaker Smith
was asked to give ruling. He said
that in view Of the fact that the chief
executive represented one department
Of the state government, he under
stood the constitutional limits OF his
remarks.
"Cowards and liars hide behind
technicalties," said Governor Blease,
following the remarks OF MIR. Barn
we'll. This brought Mr.. Barnwell
quickly to his feet. He advanced
rapidly through the hall, pushing
aside members, and, went to the
speakers stand to resent the remarks
OF the chief executive. Members
rushed in and prevented what might
have been a personal encounter be-
tween the governor and the Charles
ton member

OF INVESTIGATION
Breaks Precedent and Addresses in
Person the Lower House of the Gen.
eral Assembly. Calls Stevenson a
Liar and Barnwell Il Coward and
Does Few Acrobatic Stunts for the
Amusement Of the People.

Columbia, March 4.-The most IN
usual spectacle in the legislature in
recent years was seen in the hall of
the house Of representatives tonight
at the state house.
Governor Blcase walked into the
hall at S:lG o'clock for the purpose
Of delivering message to the mem
bers In person, It was one of the
Ntterest utterances every delivered by
the chief executive. In his own words,
he came with his life in his hands
to answer physically for what he
termed "lies.'
1t was the first time in the history
OF the state that a governor has ever
delivered message in person.
The general attack of the governor
was against W. f. Stevenson, member
OF the special committee that was ap-
pointed to investigate conditions at
the State Hospital for the Insane. Gov
ernor Blease took exception to certain
statements, attributed to Mr.. Steven
son. in his speech yesterday morning
in the house when the Kirby resolu-
tion for further investigation into
the asylum matter was under discus
sion.
Calls Statements False.
Governor Blease charged that the
taf nnf hSyN
false as the hinges of hell" He
denounced Mr.. Stevenson in the bit
terest Of terms. Then Mr.. Stevenson
came back and showed that the chief
executive was basing his statements
on a report in an afternoon paper
published In Columbia There was a
sharp and piercing controversy be-
tween the governor and Mr.. Steven
son, when all kinds CT threats were
made.
Governor Bleasc made the direct
statement that If the statements in
the paper were true, that he would
dgh it out personally; that ho would
be dead or vindicated, and that if he
were killed Charlie Smith" would be
tho governor Of South Carolina "to-
morrow morning.
The governor grew ferccr as his
speech progressed and he declared
that he meant to fight" He invited
someone out OF the hall; he was
ready to annihilate someone for the
statements.
Discussing the report of the
speeches further In the same paper,
the governor launched into a bitter
attack on N. B. Barnwell, member
OF the house from Charleston.
Referred to as Coward"
AIR. Barnwell rose to point Of
personal privilege when the governor
referred to him as coward" Then
the governor invited a fight and 1t
took Mr.. Barnwell only few min
uteS to advance through the network
OF chairs to the speakers stand,
whore the governor was delivering
his address. General disorder reign
ed. There was general uproar. 1t
seemed as If tho entire legislative
body would be thrown into q fight.
Membcrs rushed between Mr.. Barn
well and the Governor and prevented
q fight on the speakers stand.
