Senator Blackburn and other senators
spoke most kindly and appreciativeiy of the

Morrison Waite entered Yale in 1888 and

Samuel j. Tilden, Benz. Sllman, Chester S.

The associate justices were so deeply

Justice Miller finally said Chief Justice
Waite was dearly loved by all the Court.
They had the highest estimate of his ability

warmly devoted to him. He died in the

Frank A. Gardner, who was called in con-

pneumonia in the right lung. He was very
sick; the case was not considered hopeless.
In croupous pneumonia, there is always a
well defined crisis. In about five days after
the patient is taken the crisis comes, the fe-

THE LORDEY DOG.

The Charleston ,Neavs and Courier
has this to say enthe defeat of a dog
law in the, South Carolina legislature:
"The. defeat of the bill to require a
license tax of ST. per annum to be paid
by the owner Of every dog inathe
State, is more significant than it is
generally regarded: The member of
the legislature who introduced the bill
asserted that the presence of these,pet'
vermin cost the State of South Caro-
lima 5000, 00Q a year.; and We have
mo doubt that; a careful investigation
of all the facts will substantiate his as
sertion. But for these worthless ami
mails at any rate. South Carolina could
and probably would soon become one
of the leading wool-producing States in.
the Union. The difference between
what it is and what it might be; in
this respect, measures q part only of
the penalty paid for. preferring dogs
to more valuable property.
at is useless, it seems, to argue the
question; but the laugh that is raised
always when a dog law Of any kind
is proposed is at the expense Of the
farmer, at least. They save n dol.
lar a year on each cur they own, and
lose hundreds of dollars on the sheep
B, and wool they have not, and on the
food and clothing they have to buy in
consequence. of their foolish policy. 1t
is not surprising, after all, that the
farmers should find it difficult to get
along when by their votes in the leg
islature-where they have a majority
they show that they think more OF
their ours than of their cows, of a
hound than of a hog, of a setter than
of q sheep" x
The PROGRESSIVE FARMER published
last week a letter from an estimable
farmers wife of this county, showing
that the killing of q dog with which
the family had been worried for
about two years, had cost her husband
nearly five bales of cotton in court,
and he was told by the Judge, says
the lady, to kill 10 more dogs-that
dogs had a right to go where they
pleased. North Carolina should have
to-day 100000 sheep, but it has
about $50, 900 worthless ours belong
ing to those who own no sheep and
who never expect to own a sheep, but
who do own the right to cote, and there
is where the trouble lies. We believe
the people. of North Carolina, as a
whole, desire to do right we believe
if they were aroused to the enormity
of the tax they annually pay on worth
less dogs, that a large majority of
them, white and black, would vote to
abate this nuisance, but its agitation
will have to begin in and among the
voters themselves, for the average
politician would fly from the growl of
a fee as he would from a cyclone.
