If all the objections to the Mckinley
bill were taken notice of by changes in
the measure, the revised document
would be as far from the original in
semblance as black is from white, for
there are more factions to satisfy on
this issue by a good ways than on any
other, and it is absolutely impossible to
satisfy all. With every one, except the
college professors and mere theorists,
it is not a matter of national but OF In
dlvidual concern. The man, who be.
leives that he will be benefited by du-
ties, will support such provisions in the
bill, but, if he thinks it will do him
harm, he will radically oppose it. They
do not generally consider of what good
or of what detriment the measure will
be to the country at large, and, if the
present congress deyotes its time to
listening to the arguments of represen-
tatiyes of various industries, it will
never be successful in adopting a
schedule that the country will want
The best thing our representatives can
do IS to go ahead Of themselves, at
tempt to do what is fair in the way of
reduction, while conforming with the
idea OF protection, and satisfy, as near
as possible, the average sentiment of
the people. # they accomplish this,
they will have flonn ynl1

The Chicago Inter Ocean says: There
is unanimity in English authority that
one-third of the gross proceeds of land
must be counted upon as tax money.
One-tenth goes to the church as tithes;
there are road rates, poor rates, and a
dozen local rates to be paid before the
national taxes are reached. National
taxes are laid on every horse, on every
wagon, on every carriage OF every de.
scription; on5every farm house, there is
a duty of p cents on every 500 Of
value; the agent who rents houses pays
a further duty; tax of $11 per year is
paid for every servant kept; there is
scarcely anything which the farmer
owns or does that is not taxed. The
free traders keep these unpleasant facts
back from their American dupes.

Col. Donahower's first action as Unit

ment of A. B. Brackett as chief deputy.
Brackett has held that position for
thirty-one years.
Ex-Gov. McGnl says he is undecided
as to whether he will be candidate for
governor this fall or not. Our advice
to him as friend is TO hold on to that
indecision just as long as he can, and if
possible have it tide him over the ides
of November. Indecision, if continued
until after election, may save him. but
running for governor never will. That
much is certain. Fairmont News.

To the Farmers Of Brown County

EDITOR REVIEW: By your courteous
consent may be permitted, through the
columns of your worthy paper, to inform
the farmers of this county of the fact
that at the request of many of them, I
have communicated with Hon. Ignatius
Donnelly, state lecturer for the Farm
'er's Alliance, and have asked him to
come to this vicinity and deliver a lee
.ture on, the objects of Farmers Allan
ces, their methods Of org anization and
how to maintain and conduct them.
He excused himself, however, on the
grounds of rush of business, and re-
ferred me to DR.. Fish, editor of the
"Great West" whom he recommended
as an interesting and forcible speaker.
That gentleman wrote that he would
come and requested me to name places
for holding the lectures and also several
dates, from which he could select. He
is willing to speak at two different
points on the same day. AS he was de-
sirous that the places should be ones
where farmers would be most likely to
congregate, it was my opinion that
Sleepy Eye would be a good place for
the afternoon lecture and New Ulm a
capital point for the evening discourse.
It also seems that the latter part Of June
would be the most favorable time. In
the meantime, | would suggest that the
farmers of each township hold a meet
ing Immediately upon receiving this
notice, and announce the result and pre-
vailing sentiment to me not later Than
the 10th of next June. Upon receiving
this Information, regarding the willing
nesspf the farmers to organize and profit
by the lecture, [ shall notify DR.. Fish and
name three dates for him to select from.
Trusting that every farmer will take an
active part in organizing this county, /
remain Yours truly

Prof. Otto Lugger, Of the state agri-
cultural college, has submitted re-
port to the governor on new disease
that has affected the flax crop in the
southwestern part of the state. The
region infested was visited by Prof.
Lugger last fall, and he has since exam
ined large number OF specimens, but
his observations at the time were neces.
sarily superficial, and he recommends
that more thorough investigation be
made of the subject. Prof. Lugger fEds
that the disease is caused by parasitic
fungus, but of a strange character and
apparently of lower order of growth
than the ssrust'' of wheat, sssmut' of
corn and similar fungi. AS flax is one
of the best paying crops raised in the
southwestern part of the state, Gov.
Merriam will do all in his power to fur.
ther investigate the matter and at once.

Senator Sherman's antitrust bill now
only needs the Presidents signature to
become law. The republicans have
done right and we'll in passing the bill.
The Democrats voted for it also, but
when they were in control of the House
they showed no earnest purpose to
enact such measure, and thus lost an
opportunity to<meet the demands of the
people, for which Republicans now just
ly will receive credit Albert Lea Stan
dard.

consider the report Of the Committee on
privileges and elections. After some
sharp sparring between some of the mem.
bzs, the consideration of the report was
fixed for to day, (Monday, at 123 o'clock,
p. M. The Anderson delegation voted
solidly against the immediate considera.
tion, and for the consideration to day.
The Sumter contest will also come up
to-day. This contest is likely to occupy
some time, as eminent counsel have been
employed, and two reports are before the
House. The object of pressing these ca.
ses to a final issue, as was intimated by
one of the advocates for immediate con.
sideration of the Berkeley contested ca.
ses, is to have the questions decided be.
fore Tuesday, when y. S. Senator is to
be elected, but the House has shown q
disposition to hear the cases fully before
deciding, and has refused to be hurried
into these cases without time for mature
consideration.
The more I see of the House and its
proceedings, the more firmly I am con-
vinced that it is composed, to large ex-
tent, of conservative men who think and
act for themselves.

met in Joint Assembly, and reelected

The labor Bills, restricting labor in
factories by minors and women to ten

agreed upon. Members are daily receiv-
ing petitions and letters pro and Co" in
reference to this matter.
A majority of the Anderson delegation
are opposed to the Bill, but will vote 70,

OUR COLUMBIA LETTER.

COLUMBIA, S. O., Dec. Sth, 1890.
Mr.. EDITOR: The Inauguration Of
Governor Tillman was largely attended,
aud his address, which lasted for one hour
and forty minutes, was listened to with
marked attention.
Some criticise portions of the address,
and some praise it IS one of the strongest
State papers of the kind ever published
in the State, but all agree that it is an
ablepaper and characteristic ofits author.
Whether the General Assembly will at.
tempt to carry out all of the recommen.
dations contained in the address remains
to be seen. Many Of these ought to be
carried out. Among them, some provis.
ion for female education better system
of tax leyies, or something to induce
people to return their property at its ac-
vtual value, or to have it assessed by
board for that purpose; a close scrutiny
into the management of the Asylum the
hiring of convicts of the Penitentiary to
work on public works, or, to private par.
ties, and the investigation of the phos.
phate beds, and matters pertaining to the
phosphate royalty in the State.
The Clemson College, the State Uni
versity, the Citadel, and the free public
schools are all discussed, and these mat
tiers will be brought before the Legisla-
ture in the shape of different Bills, and
we will hear the questions discussed pro
and con, and the listening members of the
Legislature can pick their ears and be
ready to hear the arguments.
The House has passed a Bill abolishing
the Office of Supervisor of Registration,
and devolving the duties of said Office on
the County Auditor without compensa-
ton, and if it passes the Senate and il
approved By the Governor, our County
Auditor will have his hands full in 1892.
Poor fellow, I feel sorry for him. I did
what L could to save him, but the Bill
passed by majority of two votes, and
stands good chance of becoming law.
q. Bill has been introduced in the
! House to abolish the Office of Jury Com
missioner, and to devolve the duties of
said Office on the Clerk OF the Court, and
-
the prospects are that either this Bill or
Senator Gleun's Bill will bee me laws.

COLUMBIA. S. g. Dec. 9th.

We had an eventful day in the House
yesterday-yesterday morning over the
Sumter contested case, and last night over
the Berkeley contested case. The grounds
of the contestants in the Sumter case
were that there were only three boxes at
the State polls, at one Of the precincts
that the election was held in the same
room as that of the Federal election, and
that there was no registration book. The
facts showed that one of the managers the
night previous to the election had taken
from him, or permitted to be taken from
him, the registration book and three
boxes. The election Was held with three
boxes, one for Governor and Lieut.. Gov.
ernor, one for House of Representatives,
and one for county officers. 1t was not
denied that the sitting members had
majority of the votes cast, counting this
precinct. but it was conteuded that the
law not having been complied with, the
election at that precinct was illegal, and
throwing that vote out it unseated two Of
the Sumter delegation and seated two OF
the contestants. Messrs. Cox and Earle
voted for the contestants. Messrs. Bow.
den and Breazesle for the contestees, or
sitting members. The Berkely case was
a much stronger case for the contestants,
and the Anderson delegation voted solid.
~ for contestants.
To-day the United States Senator is to
be elected, and the indications now are
that the name of the winning man will be
NJ. L. Donaldson, of Greenyille. he has
developed much strength without elec-
tioneering for the Office. Some predict q
dead lock for several days, but do not.
I believe the contest will de decided be,
fore this is seen by your readers. The
election of United States Senator has to
acertain extent interfered with legislation,
and it is doubtful whether the Legislature
can get through with all the work before
it before the holidays. J. E. B.

INAUGURAL ADDRESS.

We have read the Inaugural Address
-of Governor B. r. Tillman with great
deal of interest, and fnd it to be a we'll
prepared, strong pa per, full Of fsuggestions
sald recommendations. 1t shows thought
and research, and for man not before in
politics, q rather striking familiarity with
the affairs Of State.
IN most of his suggestions and recon-
mendations he but echoes the desire of
sseYery brave Carolinian, and, especially,
SinalI things that look to the betterment
|$ofs our condition. His recommendations
Concerning the public schools are pretty
good on paper, but in this County ne do
snot think it is needed, and we do not
& think: it would work, where there are so
sstreams and other local influences. We
now have q Law in Section 1908 of the
General Statutes which is sufficient for
the redistricting Of the County, when
sdesn1ed advisable by the County Board,
who certainly know most, or ought to
know most, about the needs of each
County.
- There can be no doubt but that the
proper and only right way to treat and
IDEAL with the colored race is to give them,
Tin all: things, their legal, and Just, and
squal rights with the whites--not social
Bequality, but equal rights-and let them
Nlearn that We are not hostile to them nor
their interests. No citizen should allow
wrong committed against colored man,
!; on account of his race and color, and no
'good citizen will do it. The law was made
for the government of the whole people,
]. andto the law the whole peopleshould look
for redress Of all grievances, and all the
people should give their hearty support
sand encouragement to the speedy and
ssure enforcement of the Law. We think
Z the Governor is entirely right in his
views on the treatment of the colored
race.
While we are not able to endorse all
that is contained in the address, it is sn
able document.
His views on the relations that should
ssexist between the Governor and Repre-
sssentatiyes are we'll and clearly expressed.
Further, We sgree with Mr.. Tillman in
his views on reducing expenses and use
#gless Offices, and he said nothing that was
s;trner than his remark that niggardliness
sssswas not economy. We feel sure that every
good citizen wants the most economical
government ne can get, but be also wants
ssan efficient government. It would be
snnwise to so reduce the pay of public Off
) GERS as to endanger the efficient admins.
q Sttration of the laws. Surely nigardliness
/ !s not economy in anything, and
s especially in the pay Of public officers.
We disagree with Governor Tillman
in his views on abolishing the Office of
$ County Commissioners, and devolving the
duty on the Chairman of the Township
Boards. We think this is too experimen.
8tal in every particular.
1t is now the duty of every man to give
sshis hearty aid and encouragement to the
s administration, to help make it what it
should be. Let the people feel interest,
: ed, and all unite in building up and i'm
proving the different interests of the
State.
