The gallon-a-month bill was So
amended by the legislature that a
person can now order only two quarts
of whiskey a month instead of gal
lon, as heretofore; but the Individual
is given the option of ordering sixty
bottles of beer, if he prefers. We
fail to see wherein the amendment
betters conditions any; in fact 1t
would seem that it would make it
more easy for the blind tigers. The
law to put a man on the chain gang
upon conviction for selling whiskey
ought to help in the enforcement Of
the prohibition law, especially when
the governor is given fund Of $780,
900, if SO much be necessary, to run
down the blind tigers.

SIGNS FINAL MEASURES.
Manning Approves Appropriation
BiH.-Without One Veto.

Columbia, Feb. 21.-Without We
toing a single item, Governor Man
ming at 3:33 o'clock yesterday morn
ing sent his message of approval of
the appropriation bill and the omni-
bus county supply bill to the general
assembly. Two minutes later the
1916 legislature became history, from
its convening at noon January 1 to
it's adjournment.
The governors farewell message
was:
"Permit me to thank your honor
able body for the courtesy and con-
sideration extended to the executive
department and to me personally dur
ing your session. The friendship
brought about through personal as
sociation in a patriotic service to our
honored State will linger with me
long after you have adjourned and
returned to your homes and loved
ones.
Il respectfully inform your honor
able body that 1 have signed the ap-
preparation bill and the school and
county supply bill and have no fur
ther communication or message.
MAY Gods blessing rest upon you
and yours always, is my earnest
prayer"
Following the reading of the mes
sage and the adjournment immedi-
ately thereafter, members of the
house and senate extended hearty
handshakes to their departing CO.
workers in the legislative halls. It
was in pledge of the many words of
farewell and good wishes that had
been spoken at odd intervals during
the nine and one-half hour session of
Saturday night.
Mock Session.
The concluding session Of the 1911
legislature was enjoyable to the men,
bers and the itinerant visitors be-
cause of it's irregularities, it's songs
and music and it's mock sessions of
parliamentary procedure. In various
ways the legislators passed away the
time between the adoption of free
conference reports and the ratifica-
ton of bills.
All attaches of the legislative de-
partment received thanks for the SER
vices rendered. Loving cups were
presented to Speaker Hoyt, who was
highly complimented in short
speeches by more than 20 members,
and to Junius r. Lilies, chairman of
the ways and means committee.
Speeches of presentation and accept
ance. of these "slight tokens Of high
esteem" were made with sincerity
that was not forced. .s'.s
McLlD0rS w. I1OIuOs
The engrossing department, which
had completed all bills turned over
to it by 5 o'clock.in the morning al
ter a continuous session Of many
hours, was commended in the follow
ing resolution, introduced in the
house by Mr.. Massey and in the SEN
ate by Senator Laney:
"Be it resolved, by the house OF
representatives (and the senate),
That the engrossing department Is
commended for their zeal and man
ner in which they have attended to
the multitudinous duties which have
been theirs, and we especially desire
to congratulate them on the prompt
ness and correctness with which they
transacted the business on enrolling
the acts on this the closing night OF
the 1915 session.
Many of the members of the list
general assembly left on early morn
ing trains, others departed during the
day, while still others remained In
Columbia all of yesterday.

Justice G. w. Stocker declares there
is no question but what some local
parson or man claiming to be par
son is commercializing the marriage
business through a carefully planned
system.
The justice believes one preacher or
alleged preacher has an arrangement
with a taXicab driver to bring him
all the marrying business. He says
the records will show that taXicab
drivers are often the ones who swear
they are acquainted with the cou-
Piles after taking them to the court
