'I RELIEF FOR LITTLE ROADS. . Your correspondent mot -President John A. Mills, of the Raleigh &L' Bouthport Railway, to-day and found him all smiles. He said that thV short line roads felt very grateful to Gov ernor Glenn and to the Legislature; also to the general public for the sym pathy so practically shown as regards their condition. He said that on the very day the Governor Issued his call for the? special session of the Legislu- ture he applied for relief from the IS per cent, charge which had been put upon the road. The Legislature granted this by giving the corpora tlon commission power to arrange the rates for such roads on a different ba- -sis from those of the larger lines. Now the little roads can make a Ur n's and go ahead. Chairman McNeill, of the corporation commission, said to your correspondent that President Mills had applied for u- relief from this IS per cent, charge so far as his own road was concerned and that it had been granted. No doubt the other roads will Immediately apply for it, and of course the commission will look into their requests and take action upon what is found to be the situation of affairs. Governor Glenn .left to-day for Richmond to deliver an address this evening before the Virginia Antl-Sa-. loon League, and he is expected to return to-morrow afternoon.

Passenger Rates Set For To-Day. Observer Bureau, . 1423 Main Street. Columbia, S. C Feb. 5. The business of ths House moved nervously and fitfully this morning, but some Important bills had been passed before the session ended. The most important to get through was the bill of Mr. Nash, of Spartan burg, providing for the appointment of a State health officer at a salary of 63,000-and with large powers. The passage of this J111 Is noteworthy. It makes a strong, decided movement forward in the matter of State sanita tion and putting Into effect vigorous measures to prevent the spread of contagious diseases. The debate was spirited and the vete, 73 to 20, sur prised many members. Its defeat naa been freely predicted. The. bill provides for the appoint ment of the State health officer, who must be a practicing physician, grad uate from a reputable college and ex perienced In public sanitary matters, by" the executive committee of the State health board, whose secretary he shall be. - He "shall have power to. declare, when the facts Justify it. any pla;e to be infected," and take all necessary steps' to prevent the spread of disease from the Infected locality. Section 4 provides that "The State board of health shall have power through Its health officer to impose upon all railroads and navigation companies, vessels or cars, such re strictions and regulations as to Inspec tions or sanitary rules as In their Judgment may be necessary to protect the health of the people of the State." Local board3 of health have proved Ineffective In this State in Important instances on account of local men of influence getting in the way. The -House killed Mr. Rucker's bill directed against "befo day clubs" and , other negro secret societies, after It had reached third reading, by a mo tion to recommit, which prevailed by a, narrow majority. Mr. Rucker re sorted to all the parliamentary tactics to save his bill, but the majority In creased as he went. DORMITORY FOR WINTHROP.

In transmitting the annual report of the dispensary winding-up com mission to-day Governor Ansel sent a special message to the two houses, in which he made this reference to the Prltchard matter: "It is confidently expected that the cases now pending in the Federal Court will soon be decided in favor of the State." He advised "that such legislation be enacted as will protect the Interests of the State." He urges the Legislature to adopt the recom mendation of tho commission aa to either renting or selling the real es- tnte without further delay. He calls attention to the fact that the act creating the commission stops the pay -of the members with the be ginning of the new year and urges that the pay be continued as the com mission has much work ahead of It by way of investigations. Resolutions were offered In the House to-day to hereafter apply the five-minute rule to all debate and to forthwith shut off the Introduction of bills, but both were defeated. The House declined to be hurried In Its work regardless of newspaper criti cism. . The Senate spent about half of Its morning session debating a bill by Mr. Clifton, which has an Important bearing on the fire Insurance busi ness. The bill provides that a war ranty or covenant in a policy Vhall not void the policy unless fraud Is hown It sems that several wild cat concerns have been dodging pay ment Dy resorting to technical pro visions in the policy which hardly any policy-holder knows anything about. The hill passed by a comfort able majority. The members and attaches are an ticipating a delightful stay in Charles ton next Saturday, both houses having now accepted the city's Invitation, and people who know Just a little hit about Charleston hospitality know what It means to be entertained by the city. .
