DR.. Dick served several terms In
the South Carolina general assembly,
and, was chairman Of the ways and

Mr. Manning's election as governor In
1917.

paramount issues in the campaign of

Mr. Manning" he said. "He has car

law and today there is more rever-
Ferce and respect for law and order In
south Carolina as a result Of the
stand Of Gov. Manning. The results
arc apparent In the large number of
convictions secured by the solicitors
last year as reported by them to the
attorney general. Just to mention the
changed conditions in Charleston will
be sufficient to show what the gov
ernor has accomplished in law en-
forcement.
When he went into Office Charles
ton was full OF blind tigers. and 1t
had been impossible to secure even
true bill from the grand jury against
tho blind tiger. Governor Manning
took charge Of the situation and sent
q. squad Of deputies to assist sheriff
Martin In enforcing the law. AS q
result, the blind tigers are practically
out of business. and last fall more
than fifty Of them were indicted and
convicted In the circuit court. The
presiding judge. Mendel L. Smith, one
OF the most patriotic men in the
State. fined the tigers and put them
all under suspended sentences. There
Is today a healthy sentiment in Char
lesion for observance Of the law.

FATE OF EXECUTIVE
SESSION IN BALANCE
Senate Struggling Over oues-
ton Of Discussing Treaties
in Open Meeting.

Behind closed doors the Senate Is
hghting out one of the hardest battles
or the session. The struggle Is over
the question whether the SenNte shall
break down the ancient tradition OF con-
sidering treaties and nominations In
secret session or shall consider them In
the open.
The contest began Monday on a mo-
ton OF Senator Borah to consider the
Nicaragua and Colombia treaties In
open session. That motion was fought
over for two hours late Monday after
noon. and again for two hours or more
yesterday. 1t was renewed again as
soon as the Senate met, behind vlosed
DOORS at noon today.
Executive Session In Balance.
Much depends on the outcome of the
contest. Should the Borah motion pre-
vail. the executive session of the Senate
would. to put It plainly. be knocked
into cooked hat"
1t is not the expectation, however. that
enough votes can be commanded to force
open sessions, More of the Democrats,
for political reasons, fear to have the
discussion OF the Colombia treaty in
the open.

open session are chiefly y'the Progressive

LONDON, Feb. 1o.-For some time
hotel guests In London have shun-

occasioned some surprise by taking a
suite on the top floor of the Ritz.
Apparently Colonel House is the one
man in London at present who doesn't
consider the Zeppelins as worthy OF
consideration.
Colonel House received a call from
the entire American newspaper con-
tingent, but owing to the late hour
and to the fact that he had a very
tiresome trip. he asked to be excused
from seeing any OF them until today.
Colonel House expects to sail for
