SPECIAL STATE TAXES.

The law, with severe penalties at
sached enacted by the last Legisla>
ture, makes it the duty of all those
liable for the following special taxes,
for the year 1892, to pay tho tax
collector before beginning business,
said law having gone into effect on
April 10Th of the present } ear, upon
auctioneers, keepers Of pool, billiard
or bsgstelle tables, ten pin alleys or
any other game or play not prohibit
ted by law, travelling vendors of
medicines or similar articles iasur-
ance agents, emigrant agents, travr
cling vendors using boats on the
rivers of the State, Lightning rod
agents, persons selling musical in
struments on commission, shows, or
exhibitions not exempt, liquor deal
ers and agents of sewing machine
companies. Formerly the tax col
Iector had no other remedy to en-"
force the collection of this special
tax than to issue execution and turn
the same over to a levying officer. -
Under the present law failure to
pay 10 advance as demanded is a
criminal offence.
And it is made the duty of the
tax collector of each county to lay
before the grand jury on the first
day of the term of each court full
statement of all special taxes receiv-
ed by him preceding said term, as
we'll as a list of defaulters. The
Judges of the Superior Courts are
specially required to give this law in
charge to heEgrand jury. Where
true bills are found, the solicitor
general is required to draw up bills
of indictment and to prosecute all
persons 80 indicted. The punish
ment Of offenders is prescribed in
section 1910 of the code.

DR.. FELTON, in bis recent Savan
nah speech opposed the convic'
lease system on the following
grounds
at brings this penal labor into
mpetition With the honest labor OF
the country"
10 the same speech be says:
"Tbese convicts should only be
worked by the state, or by the coun'
ties, in macadamiziug its highways
building its bridges-and improv-
ing and erecting public buildings."
In the first quotation DR.. FELTON,
states his objection, and in the sec
ond qro:ation he gives bis remedy.
But would that relieve 'the honest
labor of the country of the comPe
titiOD of penal labor if they were
put to building bridges and erect
ing public buildingsf" We think
not, from the very fact as it is now
these bridges and public buildings
are let to the lowest bidder, and,
honest laborers, such as carpenters,
brick and rock masons, &C., are the
ones who do the work, and it you
supplaDt them with convict labor,
you not only bring these honest me-
chsnics in competition with convict
labor, but relieve them of work al
together, with no chance to compete
for that class of work. And this
disposition of convicts would only
increase the work of county commits
sioners, and saddle additional ex.
pense upon the counties for guard
hire, for food and clothing, thereby
necessarily increasing taxation.
DR.. FeIton's remedy does not rem
edy, but only makes the county th'
lessee to work convicts in compete
ton with honest labor. This is no
a political question and should b.
kept out of politics, and we depre
cate this way of continually drag
cling this question before the people

The commission which Gov.
Critteuden gave to Bob Ford is thus
reported by the governor himself !:
81 want Jesse James brought in, and
| will give you $4,000 for him,
dead or alive" This amounted to
saying, II will give you $4,000 to
kill him." There does not seem to
have been at any time, either on the
part of employer or employed, any
idea of attempting to capture James
alive. Ford started off on bis mis-
sion, and soon this telegrsphic dis
patch from him reached the Gov>
ernor 81 have gone after Jesse
James, and in ten days I'll have
killed him or he'll have killed me. "
Then the Governor waited for news.
The news for which he waited was
the news that James was killed. -
When Ford photographed, 81 have

perfectly Ineligible TO the Govern
or and TO the efiicers Of the law Who
were 10 bis cor fidence during these
proceedings. They knew Ford had

DECORATING THE GRAVES.

Montgomery Advertiser.
To keep green the graves of our
dead soldiers 10 sad aud solemn and
sacred duty. 1t is duty that should
be performed cheerfully, willingly
and for all time. That many graves
of dead Confederates are covered
with rank weeds and grass and
marked by rotten headboards, is the
sorrow, not the fault, of a poor but
patriotic people. The care hitherto
bestowed has been the work OF pri,
vste agencies. For the State gov
ernments to take the matter 10 hand
is duty as yet kept silent by empty
treasures. Whenever the State
shall contribute money for this pur
pose, what matters it from what
source the money Gomez, whether
from the labor of convicts or from
taxation of the people 7 If there be
any distinction between using con.
vict labor direct and using the pro-
ceeds of that labor to hire other la
Dor, it is too fine spun to be seen -

ga recent painful case of death
caused by hypodermic injection of
morpbia," says the London Lancet,
directs attention afresh to the dam
gers of resorting to this most peril
lous mode .of administering drugs
designed to relieve pain. The pub>
lie should be warned against the
practice of employing remedies hy>
podermicaIly. So formidable a
remedy should on no account be
used except under medical advice
and wheu deemed necessary should
be given be given by practitioners.
We have repeatedly urged the pro-
fession to discountensnce the re-
course to injections under the skin,
which is becoming general. 1t is a
practice of extreme hazard, and we
are of opinion that surgical instruo
ment makers should refuse to sell
the requisite apparatus to lay per.
sons, and that medical men should
forbid their use"
