The inequality of Taxation.

II has been said that factions speak louder
than Words
Everybody heard Tillman assert on tht
stump that If he was elected Governor tha
he would reduce taxes, that he would save
great sums of money to the people.
We all know the warfare which Tilimat
and his satellites are now waging on corpora
tions, for the purpose of eNtorting from them
more than fair proportion OF the taxes
We have all heard that Tillman proposes, /
he can get a subservient Legislature, to raise
tho poll tax to three dollars
We all heard him declare, in the last cam
paign, that the plow animals OF the country
were assessed at a figure greatly below theil
worth, and that these assessments should bt
raised, but we failed to hear him say anything
about the tax on carriages and carriage horse:
OF the town people.
Now, put these facts together. The rich cor
poralons are to be roboed. The poll tax o
the poor is to be raised to three dollars.
Between these propositions seems to lie the
plain bald proposition TO make very poor
folks and very rich corporations pay the ttXe'
of the country, thus fulfilling his promise Il
tighten and lessen the taxation on the av
eragc propertyholder OF the State.

Another Negro Killed in LaurenS.

A negro who was charged with burglary in
the city of Laurens was caught at negro
house soon after the theft. 1t appears iIom
the Laurensville Herald that 1.-The negro
jumped up from the table and drew pistol,
and was in this attitude when he was shot"
The negro had on a suit of clothes which had
been stolen. In the captured valse were
found 200 copper cents pipe and some other
small articles.
An umbrella and a new hat were also
found.
Before the shooting, and in answer to n
question the negro said that he was from Cor
onaca, Abbevile county.
Associate Justice Pope promptly granted
bail in the usual amount, tor killing negro,
$500.
We are curious to know In what part OF the
body he was shot. Was the stealing OF
the articles found Of sufficient value to war
rant the taking of human life:
The coroners jury rendered a verdict OF
"justifable" killing.
The petit juries generally acquit OF the
charge of murder on the ground of "eXcusa-
BILE" homicide. but the coroner seems TO juSti-
fy this killing. If the Herald has no objcc-
tion, suppose it publish the doctors certfi-
cate at the inquest. We have no idea or hint
as to what it is, but it might be well TO pub
lish 1t.

Our Rights Should be Preserved.

1t matters little to us who fills the offices
The Press and Banner has no special interes,
IN elcvatlng any man nor have we any desire
to cast down another, but the principle or tho
act by which the rights OF the citizen is ig'
nored is of vast Importance.

the most favored parsonage. ANY attempt

OH the people is for their consideration. l.
the citizen is willing to acknowledge that the
town bosses and crossroads rulers are better
able to select public officers than they are
and If they are willing to subordinate to 9th
ers, their own convictions as well as the eN
preston Of their own choice, then they lack
something OF coming up to the full measure

The Poor Must he Burden Bearers.

If actions have any signifcation, and Il
they mean anything, does it not appear from
Mr.. rillman's utterances as candidate and his
acts as Governor, that he would Oppress the
rich and soulless corporations, while putting
En- insufcrable burden on those who own nc
property?
# we are made TO pay three dollars on our
heads, and if the corporations are to be as
sessed at greatly increased figures, will the
reader not see that Governor Tillman Is in
fact, working iearlessly and openly to save
the middle class IRON taxation?
OF course none of us can see into Governor
