Columbia, Jan. 15.-Because Of
the vacancy on the State Supreme
Court bench, caused by the death Of
Associate Justice D. e. Hydrick in
Washington this morning, the ques

front, the outstanding figures men
toned being Thos. p. Cothran, Of

'paTtm ent of the 'UJnfifvtssf fsfty s6f $50 hTth

because Of the fact that Justice Hy-
drick had just died, would not vio-
late the proprieties by issuing a state

However. there are we'll developed
rumors by the friends of the three

ence Of the conference year is called

mon. The public in general is cor
daily invited to hear Rev. Holler,
and the members of the church are
urged especially to bear in mind the

The Baptist church was recently
presented with a handsome indi-
vidual communion service by Alfred
Pcrritt. The service was used for
the first time Sunday morning, when
the Sacrament of the Lords Supper
was administered The church men,
bers are most appreciative Of this
handsome gift and are truly grateful
to Mr.. Perritt. Another gift which
the church has recently received from
another member was collection

ing with her in her recent sorrow in
tho death Of her only sister, Mrs. ].

Editor Keowee Courier:
The Oconee delegation reached the
Capitol 0. k. and are feeling fine. We
are stopping at the Colonia Hotel,
and will be very glad to have any of
our friends who may be in Columbia
during the session, call OH us. We
will feel somewhat sighted If they
do not. Nothing Of much Importance
has been done yet. The greater part
OF the week. has been taken up in
organizing and making assignments.
j, as your Senator from Oconee
county, must say that am very
proud Of the consideration given me
on committees. Tho hold-over SEN
ators, as well as the new Senators,
have been very nice to me.
A bill has been introduced in both
Houses to extend the time for pay
ing county and State taxes until the
1st Of April. Think | will support
this bill in the hope that it will be
relief to the distressed conditions
Of my friends in Oconee and the State
at large.
Senator Alan tombstone, Of New
berry county, has introduced a bill
to regulate cotton acreage in South.
Carolina, and |, as your Senator from
Oconee, will support the bill. In
other words, ! am in favor Of any
legislation that may come that points
to the agricultural interest Of our
State at large. want to say Just
here that we are being told by some
professional members Of the GEN
eral Assembly that certain bills that
point to the relief Of the farmers will
not be constitutional. Then we ought
to change the Constitution and make
provisions in the Constitution for
some good laws that will be consti-
tutional. I am not down here toStest

Of South Carolina in my humble way,

The announcemnt OF the Sweeney
Auto School Of Kansas City, OF the
enrolment Of Messrs. Sims and Hunt
interests me-not that l am in any
way connected with the young gentle
men, but as an old student and grad
uate Of the X. A. S., am always
glad to hear Of South Carolina boys
enrolling.
A man who knows more about au-
tomobiles and tractors than T.. j.
Sweeney, president of this great in
stitution, has got to be born and
reared. If man doesn't get what
he goes after when he enters this
school it is because he doesn't try.
l would not exchange my diploma
for the price 1t cost me.
The general garage and repair man
"kicks" on going to school to learn
the business. There would be more
satisfied customers II all the repair
men were Sweeney graduates, for he
would not have to pay the supposed
to-be mechanic for four or five hours
work trying to find out what Is the
matter--if he happens to stagger
on the trouble at all.
Mr.. Sweeney doesn't mess you up
with a bunch of books. He has every
thing necessary to teach the busi-
ness. He doesn't only teach one how
to do Job. but tells and proves to
him why 1t should be done that way.

STOP HOWLING "HARD TIMES y
Farmers Not Broke by burned
Sight," Says Senator Mason.

% columbia Cor. Charleston News and
'bEr Courier.)
Senator Mason, OF Oconee, sprung
something Of a surprise on the Sem
ate to-day. The point of it was that
the State of South Carolina and the
people of South Carolina are not
broke by "durned" sight. His res
olution Is rather striking and unusual
and reads like this:
Whereas, the Senate has had nu-
merous resolutions Of a distressing
nature presented before it; and,
Whereas, such resolutions are cal
culated to mislead the public as to
our real condition; and,
Whereas, the State Of South Car
olina is undoubtedly hurt by the low
prices Of it's products, still the farm
ers and other classes Of citizens, while
feeling depressed, are not yet broke
Therefore, be it resolved, that no
further resolutions of depressing
and pessimistic nature be received in
the Senate, but that like resolutions
be forthwith rejected and not consid-
ered.'
The Senate had about passed the
resolution by viva vore vote when
Mr.. Christensen asked what it was
all about and had the resolution read
4 second time. and suggested that it
had better go over. Under the Sen
ate rules one objection carries a res
olution over until the following day,
and the resolution will, therefore. he
considered at later day.
Senator tombstone inquired If Sen
ator Mason was q farmer, but the
resolution had gone over, and no dis
cussion was in order.
Senator Mason stated that his
grandfather, his father and he had
all been farmers, and that there were
nothing but farmers in his family.
Senator Mason in conversation said
that he realized that the farmers, in
common with every one else. did not
have bed Of roses just at this time,
but that they were far from being
"broke," and even If they were
"broke," there was no use to be pa
rading that fact to the public. As n
matter of fact. both the Senate and
the House to-day met to receive new
Keowee courier. [volume] (Pickens Court House, S.C.) 1849-current, 1921-01-19

bills and to 60 through the technical
requirement Of declaring the official
vote for Governor II. A. Cooper and
Lieut.-Governor Wilson G. Harvey.
There were a bare quorums present
in either branch, as it was already
known that the usual weekend re-
cess would be taken to-day. The
House will meet again on Monday
evening and the Senate to-day agreed
to meet at IL o'clock Tuesday.
