i = sday the new Democratic Tariff
d ch the Ways and Means Com
beana atwork since the adjourn
y the extra session of Con-
4 given to the public in
A and its provisions fulfill
csation Of those who predicted
orm. In many respects it is
g5 even to the Democratic members
Congress- as it is unprecedented in
Bnany of its provisions, and 10 great
xtent doctsina;re in some matters upon
)E| party has never given definite
tterances. The free LISTS of that
ope sufficient to-satisfy the most
advocates Of drastic reform, and
! fhs udiation Of the principle of recip-
rocity IS decl lsiye and emphatic.
The following summary of the bill has
been prepared by Representative Bryan,
sof Nebraska, who is a member OF the
sommIttee:
The bill Just completed puts wool, coal,
sr.2aIa educes the tariff on sugar from one

$50 provides for determination of the
lntY2 by degrees. AS rule, the tariff
q IS been msde lowest upon the cheaper
geods of necessary use and left highest
3Supon more axepnsive articles. The wool
schedule will perhaps attract most atten-
ton. We have left no duty higher than
4 As par cent on mar ufactures Of wool and
that only on ready made garments aver
Naging less than 40 per cent. The cheaper
Sqnality of blankets and fannels are only
faxed % per cent. and the lower grades Of
3searpets onlN 20. We have also applied
4 &gradual reduction to the woolen sched-
4 |uie so that Sssss the end Of i've years the
datr will be 40 and the average
Sgnear 80 per s,ent. Very material reduc
tions have been made in the cotton
schedules. We have placed iron ore on
the free list and made large cut all
Salong the metal schedule. The duty on
Z steel raiis is reduced more than so per
cent. Free INN berwill be q great bene-
Il fit to- the people Of the prairie States and
free salt will give to those who y eed salt
sfor their cattle or for curing meat the

ed heretofore by means Of rebate to
those who cured fish. Agricultural inn

A Judicial Sweep.

At noon tomorrow the General Assem-
bly of South Carolina will convene in an
nual sessions session that will be OF
more than the usual duration and exceed
ingly interesting.
Yesterday the members Of the two
houses began to come in by every train
and the hotel lobbies are beginning to
look very lively. Speaker Jones and
Lieut. Governor Gary, the presiding off,
GERS of the two houses, are here, and the
sergeant-at-arms of both the Senate and
House, are also present, as are the clerks.
Circulation Expert Rodgers is also here.
A good many Of the members are stop
ping at private boarding houses. To-day
the big majority of the mem bers will
come in and it will be lively about the
various Offices in the Capitol.
The session begins this Year about a
week later than usual, and inasmuch az
there is so much more legislation to be
attended to this year than has been known
for good many sessions, IL is predicted
that the body will come back after Christ
mas for a week or more.
OF course the principal thing to engage
the attention Of the Legislature is the dis
will have to be given it if it Is to be con-
tinued, In this connection it is we'll to
say that a great many surprises are in
store not only for the liquor men but
for the advocates of the dispensary sys-
tenn.
It is ascertained that the election Of the
five judges will come up early in the
session-probably the first Of next week.
The terms of Associate Justice MCGOWAN
and Judges Hudson, Witherspoon, lzlar,
and Wallace expire at the present
term. A man Of prominence in the re-
form movement, yesterday said that all
the old Judges would likely pass the board
with, perhaps, the exception of Judge L."
lar. His idea is that the reform members
will hold c&ucus and agree upon the
men they would vote for. He says it is
pretty well settled that by strict party
vote Eugene Gary will be elected to sue
ceed Justice McGowan; Townsend to-
succeed Judge Wallace; R. c. Watts to
succeed Judge Hudson and Ira B. Jones
to succeed Judge Witherspoon. He says
Ira B. Jones' chance to succeed Justice
MCGOWAN has disappeared. He does not
think that w. G. Benet will have any
chance against Judge Izlar.
If Maj. Townsend is elected to succeed
Judge Wallace, Assistant Attorney
eral Buchanan will be elevated to the va
cant Attorney -Generalship without oppo-
sition.- Columbia State. Nop. 20.

Texas, is in Jail on nine indictments for

American Mortgage Company.
= The dispensary law has been kicked
and cuffed around the State to an extent
that no other law on the statute books
has ever undergone, and 1t has been
fought vigorously by the liquor element
at every step. Liquor dealers outside of
the State are taking hand in the war
against the dispensary, and from recent
circular issued by liqucr house in
Louisville, KY, it is apparent that tho
law is put at defiance by the firm. The
following extracts are made from the
circular, which is shameless reflection
upon the authorities of our State:
"Whiskies are delivered at our risk n
any part of South Carolina. We keep no
accounts with the consumer, as our busi-
moss is to sell directly to the dealer. We
are making an exception of the people of
South Carolina merely to give them an
opportunity to compare first class, high
grade Kentucky whiskey with the suf
that Governor Tillman is trying to force
them to buy. Our first circular was the
means of bringing hundreds of orders to
us from the citizens of your State. We
intend togive every body an opportunity
to by whiskey from first hands at whole
sale prices until the Governor Of South
Carolina concludes to discontinue the ga
loon business"

Rloody Battle Royal.

SpARTANBURa, S. c., Nov. 21.-There
was one of the old time battles near
Cam pobello Monday, reminding one of
the days when human life was cheap and
whiskey plenty. Last week Henry
Fisher and young man named John
son, acting as II United States marshals or
whiskey spies for the State, attempted to
arrest VIM. H. Paris, who had some IL
quor in his wagon. He resisted and
prevented the arrest. Monday they
met about three miles from Csmpobello
at Tom Burrl's sale. After they had
scowled at each other awhile and filled
up with the cup that makes people dan
gerous and desperate the quarrel was
VIM. H. Paris and Henry Fisher were
instantly killed, Three others, names
not ascertained, were dangerously woun-
ded. The coroner went there yesterday
afternoon or this morning. The evil
dence goes to show that Tom Gaines
shot Paris. It is not known who shot
Fisher and the others. 1t is the most
bloody battle we have had in this
county in many days. Up to2 p. m.
Sheriff Dean had no warrants placed in
his hands.-SpGrtanburg correspondent
Greenville NeUs.
ANOTHER ACCOUNT.
A gentleman came to Greenville yes.
terday from Gownesville, which is
mile and half from the scene of the
Fisher-Paris killing. He attended the
sale at the Barnes place but left before
shooting occurred. He says about a
hundred men were present and about
fifty of them were drunk, whiskey being
stored in neighboring stable and sold
freely and openly. There was much dis
order before he left and one man had
been locked In stable to prevent trou-
BILE and had kicked his way out.
Tom Gaines, who is said to have shot
Fisher or Paris or both men, returned
to his home near Gowensville and slept
there Monday night. Fishers body was
not found until nearly dark. After the
shooting was over he was inquired fer
and at last somebody found him in the
kitchen lying in a chimney corner dead
with bullet through his breast. 1t
had struck the top button of his waist
coat.
Paris son, a boy of fourteen, wos bad
ly cut in the breast and his condition at
last accounts was critical.
A telegram was received here last
night from Lee Fisher at Tryon, N. c.,
saying that 8 reward will be paid for the
arrest Of Gaines, who is described as %
years old, with fresh complexion, red
rnoustache, long nose, red at the end,
good looking and neatly dressed and
weighing 40 pounds. His father is an
old resident Of the Gownesville 9 section
and Is widely known in the Sta to having
once been prominent and wealthy resi-
dent of Newberry and a man noted for
his attainments and convivial qualities.
Fisher is thought to have been a
cousin of Jack, John and Lee Fisher

The Springfield. Mass, Republican
of Nov. 90. has the following of Gen.
John Buford, Rock Islands gallant
and distinguished cavalryman, after
whom Buford post, G. A. r., is
named: aiat
The survivors Of the cavalry corps
of the Army of the Potomac have sig
ni!ied their intention of erecting a
monument TO the mem DRY of the dis
tinguished and typical American
cavalryman, Gen. John Buferd. The
site selected is Beverly Ford, Va. ut
which spot was fred the first gun on
the union side of the memerabie bat
tie of Gettysburg. Besides CONNIE M
Grating Gen. Buford's deeds, this
monument is to he erected as Il re-
minder of the efficiency in battle Of
an advanced! cavalry. The initial m
stance of this was the assignment of
Gen. Bufor;l to Beverly Ford. Va,
in June, 1868. for the purpose of re-
tanning the point of vantage against
the skirmishers of Gen. Lees "ad-
vancing army. 1t is to Gen. Blu
ford's act in successfully holding
Beverly Ford. it is said today BY mil
itary men, that the Unionists. owe
their subsequent Victories. MANY
foreign countries have since adopted
the same tactics in warfare.
Buf,rd Mem IT. II As ocIa;ioa.
The decision to erect memorial
to Gen. Buiord and the demonstra-
ton of the efficacy Of an advanced
cavalry, was reached last week il,
New York. when the survivors met
and organized the '.Buford memorial
association, and chose the following
committee: Chairman. Mai .-Gen.

has not yet been determined when
this monument will he erected and
just what will be the cost, but it has
been decided that a most substantial
piece of stone will be erected. ard
that i: will be something. of which
Americans may be proud.

An Indictment was ret urned BY the
grand jury Of Scott county at Daven-
port Saturday that at first glance
had all the appearance of nice. ripe
sensation. but investigation of the
facts leading up to it dispel the iiiu-
son. Tic indictment charges the
judges OF election in the Fifth ward,
that city,IJN 3. Schmih. G. D: Mars
tin7+ami Francis Mccullough, with
having received illegal votes at the
recent election.
The facts alleged are that the
judges allowed three persons to vote
aftcr their votes had been challenged,
without administering to. them the
oath as to their eligibility that the
law requires. 1t is though, that the
present action has been brought
more to obtain a railing on the points
OF law involved than from malicious
desire {" make trouble for the Judges.
The law Is very. specific, making the
oath obligatory If tho right et tie
voter to vote has been questioned.

While three omissions of this ma
ture are alleged. the iniictmentfsssnd

or four year, past. but Cir. Murphy
has intended returning to Dav-

crcise the right OF suffrage there in
stead OF in Roe. Island AT the last
election. however. his vote was chal-
lengcd Ivy J. ". Bollingcr on the
ground Of non-residence. but the
Judges. finding him registered in due
form. permitted him to vote. That
they did so without administering
the oath prescribed by law is the
cause of all the trouble.
