S1GS,000.0J0

The figures show beyond dispute that
while the reform Legislature of 1880
called on the taxpayers for S712, 100, the
same Legislature in 1891 calls on them
for S756, ,000-SS444 900 more This calls
for A., 900 bushels of wheat, 1862 bales
of cotton and about $4,000 bushels of
corn if Mr.. Buist's figures are correct)
more than was called for ia 1880. With
the lunatic asylum expenses reduced
$4,000, as Mr.. Buist says, with the ap-
preparation for the State Agricultural
Society cut off, with work suspended
on Clemson College and the State house
the reform Legislature Of 1891 calls for
S44, 600 more than it did in 1890. What
| for?
The senate did, as Mr.. Buist says, re-
fuse TO pass the bill to reduce the sala-
ries of State officers. That bill stood at
| the head of the senate calendar twenty
days or more, waiting for action. None
| Of Governor Tillman's friends or repre-
sentStives made move to have it acted
on. Governor Tillman knew it was
there. He could surely have found some
friend to push it. He did not favor It
When asked during his speech at
Greenvil!e in June, 1890, if he favored
reducing his own salary if be should be
elected, he replied that he would save
the people many times his salary before
he had been in office year. He hasn't
done it, or if he has nobody has found
it oUt. When that bill was at las
| forced on the attention Of the senate
Senator Moody, of Marion, strong
anti-Tillman man, did it. Here is how
the senator's voted:
For the salary reduction bill:
Senators Bigham, Buist, DeSchamp
DoZier, Evans, jenkins, Mason, Moody
Moore, Sanders, Smythe, Zimmerman
Wocdward-l3.n
Against the salary reduction bill, oil
against taking it up for consideration

Mr.. Buist says the senate refused K
vote for the salary reduction bill. Wha
did he house do? 1t passed 4 bill tt
reduce the salaries of State officers fas
enough. That did not cost members
anything. On the 18th of December
Mr.. Mooney offered an amendmen
cutting down the pay of members 0
the house and senate one-half, and sup
ported it in strong speech, dwelling
on The distress Of the taxpayers anC
how welcome some relief would be
He "called the attention" of reform
members to it eloquently and ably
The reform members of the reform
house voted the amendment down 6
to %, thereby, aS Mr.. Buist says, IRE
quiriug the people to pay thousands O
dollars TO office holders"-reform offic
holders" (which should be in th
pockets of the people," The house alon
is responsible for this. Our recollection
is that Representative Buist recorde,
as voting against reduction Of his OWL
pay, although he was urging senator
to reduce the pay of State officers. MI
Mooney introduced the bill II reduc
the salaries of State officers.

Legislature did was simply to pass bi

BUSINESS COMPLICATION.
Failure Of Cooper 6 Brunside Bros Grocers
of Laurens.
Especial to The State.]

LAURENs, January 27.-The mercan-
tile firm Of Cooper & Burnside Bros,
grocery dealers here, assigned to-day to
F. P. MCGOWAN, for the benefit of
creditors. The firm is composed Of A.
w. Burnside, former Probate Judge, J..
E. Burnside and J. R. Cooper, the lat
ter two being the active partners. The
assignment includes everything, indi-
vidual aud firm property, except prop
erty exempt by law. No accurate
statement of assets and liabilities can
yet be given, but it is estimated that
the Indebtedness will amount to ST., 900
and the assets to $4,000. The assets
consist of considerable real estate, d
stock Of goods, notes and accounts.
A meeting of the creditors to elect an
agent will be held February +.
One of the banks here and the bank
at Clinton are large creditors, both,
however, being partially secured. The
bulk Of the Indebtedness is held in Lau-
rens County. The assignment is due
solely to inability to make collections.
The members of the firm are men of the
highest personal integrity and respecta-
bility, and it is hoped that they will be
able to realize on their assets and COM
mence business again before very long.
The firm has been established about
twelve years, first as J. B. Cooper & Co.,
and subsequently under the present
name.
FAILURE AT BLACKSBCRG.
BLACKsBURG, Jan. &c. NJ. Moore,
one Of the oldest merchants in this
town, yesterday made an assignment
for the benefit of bis creditors. w. B.
DeLoach, Esq, is the assignee. The
property assigned is mostly real estate,
and is worth about $4,000. His liabili-
ties are not yet fully known.
The firm of Moore g. Johnson also as
signed. Their assignment was caused
by the Indebtedness of Mr.. G.. NJ.
Moore, who was the senior member of
this firm. They assigned to w. B. De-
Loach. Both members of this firm
have the deep sympathy Of the COM
munity in their misfortune. Both
men are highly thought of, and their
assigning without exempting anything
is an evidence Of their honor and integ-

Garrison was represented by Attorney J.
Il. PARROT, who moved to quash the pro-
ceedings on the ground OF frivolity, and
that the property named did not belong to
the United States but was the individual
property of the postmaster, who was at
liberty to do with it as he pleased. Mr..
Parrott's argument was forcible and to the
point. He hinted that the action of
Commissioner Fowler in allowing or
causing so frivolous a matter to
make such disturbance and so serious an
Interference with the postotfice of that place
demanded an Investigation. The proceed
ings were Quashed and Postmaster Garrison
was discharged. The case of h. w. Fowler,
charged with the embezzlement of 1926 48
of postal funds, also came up. The infor-
nation upon which the warrant was issued
was made by Postmaster Garrison, who had
young Fowler in his employ as a clerk in
the office. Fowler waived examination and
was held in $3.50 bail TO await the action of
the grand jury. From what was shown in
the Garrison case. it appeared that the
charges brought against Mr. Garrison
were merely counter charges to offset those
made by Mr.. Garrison against Fowler.

little colored girl was fatally burned
yesterday at the distillery of Wynn &
Robertson, near this place. In standing too
near the blaze her clothing caught fire
ana was burned completely of, roasting
the child in a horrible manner.
Quite a hutter of excitement was created
among our people last Sunday by what
was supposed to be runaway marriage,
but the facts proved il to be only friendly
visit party of young folks paid TO the
preacher.
prominent physician who lives not over
dozen miles from Wadley had q rather
funny experience in Louisville few even~
ings ago. He is a widower. and, like all
other men, Is susceptible to the charms OF
the fair sex. In Louisville there lives a
handsome widow. whom the doctor calls
upon occasionally, doubtless remem-
bering the. scriPtural injunction
TO visit the fatherless and the
widow especially the widow. There is
nothing strange about good-looking wild
over paying his respects to a handsome
widow. But upon the night In question,
after the doctor had made his call and bid
den the lady goodnight, at about the hour
OF 10, he started back to the home of a
friend with whom he intended to remain
for the night, but when he reached the
gate and tried to open it the
old thing wouldn't work. Some
how or other he had forgotten the combina-
tlon and he couldn't open it, try as he might.
Being built himself upon the Falstaff model
he could not climb the fence, and the
righteousness Of his position prevented him
from alarming the household of the widow.
So he gathered his overcoat more closely
around him and began a funeral march
around the yard fence Just inside),
much to the serious injury
and threatened total destruction
OF all the shrubbery and flowers. At 10
o'clock the town marshal happened along
and found the doctor still keeping up his
stately tread around the yard. On exami-
nation it was found that the boys had wired
up the gate, but by the help Of the marshal
the doctor was released.
