THURSDAY, JULY 2. HUMAN HITS BIEASE HHRD Senator Declares ’Twill Be “Nauseating” if the Governor is Elected. Defends New Rules. I Spartanburg, S. C.—ln a statement issued to the South Carolina press Sena tor B. R. Tillman touches on the sena torial campaign now under way and takes several flings at Governor Cole Blease. whose election to the senate, he says, "will be nauseating to some of us." Senator Tillman defended the new rules governing the primary election, which are being bitterly denounced by Mr. Blease. The senator also says: "Gov ernor Blease and Mr. Fortner are howl ing about the negroes having white teachers and the danger to our tion from that source. I am inclined to believe the Southern people made a great mistake when they did not take charge of the negroes’ education and put thm all under white teachers in stead of colored teachers. However, that may be, the one real danger and a g eat one it is to South Carolina’s civiliza tion, lies in a possible division among the white peop'e themselves, making the negroes the balance of power and the controllng factor in our politics. "The new rules adopted at the last state convention to govern the primary insure an honest vote and every good Democrat will abide the result what ever it be. ‘ "There is little possibility of our ever having again as bad a governor as Blease has been." BOUSE TftOLES HIGHWAY BILE „.* : . Surprise at Action on State Highway Commission. Speaker xtc;plie s to Mr. Picquet. Atlanta. Ga, —The house of representa tives Wednesday laid on the table the till by Representative R. B. Blackburn of Fulton county to create a state high way commission. The bill was the first on the calendar of unfinished busi ness ready for their dreading and pass age. The vote of the house seemed to Indicate that there is a strong senti ment against the proposed highway com mission. Remarks of members who spoke against the hill showed that they feel the prison commission as at present con stituted may serve the functions of a highway commission quite adequately. Representative Blackburn was admitted ly surprised by the house’s action, as he had anticipated no serious opposition to the bill. After the reading of new bills Speaker Burwell. replying to a parliamentary in quiry by Mr. Picquet of Richmond, stated that the rules committee of the ho>tse is not the czar of the house, as nsser.ed In various speeches on the floor, hut is tlie controlled servant of the ■ house.' He said the committee places bills on tlie calendar strictly according to their serial numbers, and no special order can be made by the committee without a three-fourths majority vote of the house, except during the last seven days of the session, when, as ex perience demonstrated, a steering committee is absolutely necessary. Representative Wright of Floyd, re plying to Speaker Burwell, stressed the power of the rules committee during the last seven days. It is then, he said, that (lie committee does wield the power of a czar, absolutely controlling the proce dure of tlie house. Representative Sheppard of Sumer said another very powerful advantage enjoyed by the rules committee is that resolutions directing committees to re port out on bills are referred to the nilcs committee, where trey usually re main if illls committee is unfavorable to ihc hill on which a report Is de sired.

Dictagraph in Doctor’s Office to Wife’s Room. Freeport, N. Y.—ln searching for a motive for the murder of Mrs. Louise Bailey, a prominent society woman, in tlie office of Dr. Edwin Carman Tues day night, police today worked on two theories.

Investigation of the case last night developed that Dr. Carman's wife had for weeks listened to his conversation with women patients by means 01 a telephonic device. “Everything I heard over the dicto graph comforted me,” Mrs. Carman said today. “I became convinced of the doctor’s fidelity to me."
