The Newberry Bank and the Comptroller
General.
It will be remembered that the
County Board of Equalization accepted
the returns of the stock of the Bank of
Newberry at par. The president of
the bank, Mr.. r. L. McCaughrin, who
appeared before the board, stated that
the par value of the stock was 500
share, but that it would probably sell
for Sl6O, and yet with the facts in their
position the board decided that it
would be right and equitable to accept
the returns at 500.
Now the Comptroller General writes
u letter to the Auditor advising him
that section 229 of the Statutes does not
prevent him from following the provis-
ions of section 239. And if the Bank
of Newberry returned its shares at SlO0
and the auditor has reasons "to suspect
or know" that they are worth $3.50, he
must enter them on his tax duplicate
at $3.50, irrespective of what the board
did.
Section 229 says that auditors have
right to increase returns as made by
individuals or as left by boards ofequal-
station. Section 259 has reference to
where there are frauds in returns.
The auditor, we presume, will follow
the instructions of the Comptroller
General.
We cannot see the reason or the JUS
tice of requiring one class of taxpayers
to return their property at its full mar
ket value when it is potent to every
one, who will take the pains to inquire,
that all other property, including real
estate, is not returned at more than half
or two-thirds of i's real value. And
what is the use Of boards of equaliza-
ton if their action is to be disregarded?
The main thing to work for is an
equalization of valuation; then the bur
dens of taxation bear equally on all
persons in proportion to their property,
and it matters not whether it is valued
high or low. If thigh, the rate will be
decreased .; if low, it will be increased;
but the amount paid for taves will be
the same in either case.

NOTES FROM EXCELSIOR.


Our school gave vacation on Friday
evening last.
Mrs. #. L. Wheeler has been i'll, but
is improving again.
Garden vegetation is beginning to
have better appearance.
Mr.. Hanon Kibler informs US that
he shot and killed a wild turkey weigh
ing nine pounds near his residence a
few days ago.
Mr.. James D. Kirard, of Newberry
College, spent Saturday and Sunday at
home.
Good seasons Of rain, and cotton
coming to a stand. Our farmers will
about finish planting this week. The
price of the staple remains low and the
farmers are putting in another crop
with poor encouragement Of reaping
much benefit next fall. How can the
farmers with hired labor raise cotton at
and s cents per pound and keep out
of debt? The farmers will have to make
change, and the sooner the better.
Early planting of corn has come to a
stand and looking well. The grain crops
in this section continues to look flour
ishing.
The "Easter Eggs" publishedin The
Herald and News, has been read and
enjoyed by number Of our people. 1t
seems that the young folks of this day
and time have adopted quitea different
way of courting to that of the Dutch
Fork in former days. However, we
believe a pleasant courtship is enjoy
able let it be ''Bekky" or "Sallie." But
there should only be two persons pre-
sent at such entertainments in order to
make the meetings a success is the
opinion Of SIGMA.

schemes will never remedy this grow
ing evil, as long as cotton is planted to
the exclusion of grain crops for home
consumption. Just as long as the
planters of the cotton States persist
in planting all cotton, and depending
on the cotton crop entirely for food
and raiment, just so long will this state
of things exist. No amount of money

indicted for excessive whipping of the
six-year old child of her husband by
former marriage. The step-mother

a high and aggravated nature.
The affair has created considerable
talk, and there is some feeling in the
community on both sides Of the case.
The parties in the case are generally
known. The child's father is Mr.. Reu-
bin S. Maybin, who married Mrs. Ma
mie Oxner. Before her first marriage
she was Miss Mamie Kinard.
Mr.. Jno. A. Werts has eXerted him
self in behalf of the child. His wife is
the child's aunt, and be brought the
charges in the Justices court against
Mrs. Maybin. Mr.. Werts has desired

is already one Of public notoriety, and
it is here given merely as news.

The Sanford Girls.

This orchestra troupe appeared three
nights this week at Newberry Opera
House and delighted their audiences
very much. They played quite va
riety of instruments, and the music
was good. The cornet and violin solo
were especially fine, and the harp was
handled with skill. The singing was
also good.
The practical illustration of japanese
village life was novel and interesting.
The rapidity and perfection with which
the japanese applied the embroidery
needle and the paint brush were mar
vellous.
Altogether the entertainments were
very attractive.
