SENATE VOTES FOR TAX
OF 2 CENTS ON GASOLINE

Columbia, Jan 31-The senate
today after an extended debate
Tuesday morning passed that
clause of the gasoline tax bill
which provides for a two cent per
gallon tax on gasoline. The origi-
nal bill as it comes over from the
house last session provided for one
cent per gallon on gasoline but the
amendment by the senate finance
committee for two cents prevailed
by a large vote. The vote on the
motion to table the amendment
was lost by a majority of rs to 7.
The amendment was then passed
directly on a viva cotce vote.
The senate is yet to vote on the
disposition of the funds received.
There is a divided and this will be
decided on possibly at Tuesday
nights session. An amendment will
also be proposed at the night ses-
sion. An amendment will also be
proposed at the night session to
exempt kerosene oil from taxation.
The bill now provides for n cent
on kerosene.
It is likely that the bill will be
finally acted on tonight as only
one or two general. amendments
are to be considered. The test vote
Tuesday presages a passage Of the
BILL.

VALUABLE PACKAGE q.
STILL UNCLAIMED

Columbia, Jan ga package
valued at 500 was received at the
Columbia postofice recently without
street address and the honest man to
whom it was delivered refused to &C
cept it. The package is still uncalled
for, the proper owner being as yet
unknown.
This is only one of 1926 pieces of
misdirected or improperly directed
mail received one day this week, &C.
cording to the figures given out yes
terday morning by ] B Rodgers,
chief mail clerk at the Columbia post
office.
Mr. Rodgers says of this number
257 pieces were picked out and de-
livered Immediately after a second
scanning of the mail, and 1899 peo-
pie had to be looked up in the city
directory before the mail could be
delivered, all of which could have
been avoided by a little cooperation
with the postofice department on
the part of the public in having their
mail addressed to- street and number
or box and number.
There are many Implications and
multiplications of names with the
same initials in Columbia and as the
post office clerks do not know the
handwriting of each persons particu-
lar friends, there is nothing to 60 by
except guess work in delivering such
mail.
Cards are furnished by mail car
