to suggest, but those who seem so anxious for
improvements would likely be the first to
protest if the tax rate was increased. 1t is
likely that there is not member of the late
grand jury who wants an addition to his tax
bill. And if there is, there are hundreds of
tax payers who don't for every grand jury
that does. There are lawyers at the bar who
have been in practice here for half century,
and so far as known, there has been neither
Judge, lawyer, juror, witness nor spectator
during the county's existence whose health
has been injured by differentiation or lack of
convenience of the Court House. Let us get
rid of some of the unnecessary Federal taxa
ton of about 81 per cent, before we think of
an increased tax rate for improvements that
are not urgent. The grand jury room is only
used about five hours day four weeks in
year, and the illventilation, or total absence,
will not deter persons from serving as grand
Jurors. The court excuses all who ask to be
excused. The Court room is not used more
than three months in year all told, and the
bench and bar can put up with Inconvenience
a few years longer that have been borne over
fifty years. A TAX PAYER.

A LYNCHING IN LOWNDES
FIVE HUNDRED MEN RIDDLE A
NEGRO WITH BULLETS.

He Had Assaulted the Daughter of a
Farmer-The Demon Fully Identfied
by Bis Victim Before He Was Killed
He Had Followed Her From Town
to Accomplish His Purpose.
NALposrA, GA, Oct. 30.-Valdosta was
thrown into fever Of excitement tonight
when news reached here that all assault had
been attempted upon one of the most lovely
young ladies of .his county. Miss Hardee,
a daughter of a well-to-do farmer,
living about seven miles from this
place, came into town unattended in a
buggy to do some shopping. Finishing her
purchases, she startled homo, and had gone
about two miles whom she was overtaken
by negro named Paulsee, who has been
driving dray for Ham Bros, and who had
followed the girl all the way from the city.
TIE ASSAULT.
By subterfugs the black demon gained
the young lady's presence. overpowered
her, and, after beating her TO unconscious
ness, accomplished his base design. Upon
receipt of this information the people turned
out en- masse in pursuit of the perpetrator
of the crime. About 5 o'clock this after
noon the party succeeded in arresting their
man. They carried him before the girl,
who fully identified him.
RIDDLED WITH BULLETS.
Four of the party then started with their
prisoner to return to the city, but before
they had gone far they were met by 500
armed men, who, covering the
guards with Winchesters, demanded
the prisoners release. 1t was useless
to attempt to stay the fury of the crowd,
and the guards, finding resistance useless,
surrendered their prisoner and proceeded
on their return TO town. A few minutes
later rifle shots were heard behind them.
1t is said that the negro was completely
riddled with bullets.

stoner Thompson Sends His Party's
Committee $5o-Roosevslt's Expla-
nation.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 30.-A well-known
republican leader not now in office, but
prominently connected with the congress
sional campaign committee, has received
from Theodore Roosevelt, civil service
commissioner, a contribution of $50
to be used for legitimate campaign expenses
in any congressional district where it is
needed.
Ex-Gov. Thompson, also member of the
commission, has sent in a contribution in
aid of the democratic cause
RoosEvELT's EXPLANATION.
In conversation to-day Mr.. Roosevelt
said: There is no reason why, under a re-
publican administration, all contributions
should be made to the republican campaign
tund, and under democratic administra-
ton they should all he to the democratic
fund. Clerks are as much at liberty to con-
Tribute to one party as to another, and they
are perfectly safe and free to make no con-
tribution if they SO prefer Within the
classified service the employees are under
obligat on to no party. Gov. Thompson is
a democrat, serving under this administra-
tlon. he makes contribution to aid his
party. am a republican; l aid mine. If
we did not want TO contribute we would
not No one can force a government en-
ploye to contribute, nor if he desires TO con-
tribute compel him to contribute to this
party rather than to that
PROHIBITION OF SOLICITATION.
THAT is all there is in the question, ex-
cept that no employe shall solicit directly or
indirectly from any other employe, and
none shall give to or take from another
employe. IF there are political clubs of
which government employees are members,
there is no reason why they should not be
democratic as well as republican. But all
of them will be prosecuted if we have evil
dence OF their trying to force contributions
by intimidation"

HICKe-BBAoH ON THE STUMP.

He Says Gladstones Words Afford
His Followers No Guidance.
LONDON, Oct 30.-Michael Hicks-B Beach.
president Of the board of trade, delivered a
speech at Kilmarnock, Scotland, to-day.
He said that Mr.. Gladstone's torrent of
words did not afford his followers the
slightest guidance. The speaker did not
fear the general election. The government
would continue its Irish policy
and would uphold the Scottish church.
He objected TO any meddling with the
working hours Of the adult laborer, even in
the case of miners, but he warned railway
companies that legislation would interfere
if they overworked their men to the danger
of the public. The speaker exon
Grated America from any de-
sire TO injure England with the
new tariff law. Similar attempts in the
past, he said, had only expanded our trade,
and 1t was not likely that we
should have to put up our shutters
now. The heavy duties on tin plates
would only be detrimental to the American
fruit trade. Some changes IN the tariff
would tend distinctly in our favor,
such as freeing raw sugar. which,
besides giving an impetus to
the West Indian trade directly,
would benefit cur trade Then we would
benefit with increased trade with Canada.
So long as we avoided labor troubles and
continued to open new markets we would
have nothing to fear.
