THE FATE OF SILVER.

The deceased Republican statesman,
JAMES G.. BLAINE, was not infrequentiy
better than his party on many important
public questions. On the 18th OF
February, 1878, in the Senate of the
United States. ne made this striking re-
mark on the silver uaestion:
.'If, therefore, silver las been demone-
tlzed, am in favor of remonetlzing IT..
II its coinage has been prohibited, j am
in favor OF ordering it TO be resumed. Ii
it has been restricted, / am in favor OF
having it enlarged
That is the position OF the true friends
of silver today. All of them, however,
are not astute enough to perceive the adj
Vantage that they have, in the desired
repeal OF the SHERMAN ssmakeshift, " to
effect the only means by which
the financial question can be per-
manently settled. Many of them, who
entertain the same views as BLAINE
held, believe that the present unsatisfac-
tory measure stands in the way OF true
bimetallic policy, and so they are ready to
remove it as cutting away the timber be-
fore preparing the soil for the silver har-
vest. 1t is not unlikely that if BLAINE
had been in Congress today, even with
the views expressed as above, he would
have voted with the majority to stamp
out the SHERMAN blunder.
Remember, you who condemn silver
men for voting for unconditional repeal,
that not Democratic Senator or a Dem
cratic Representative voted for the SHER-
MAN law, and then reflect that it is quite
consistent that Democrats should vote
for its repeal. By doing SO, whatever we,
who believe it ought to be held to as Sc
curity until something better is obtained,
may think as to their wisdom, we have
10 good ground for doubling their sin
certify because of their vote on this ques-
ton. Neither does that vote seal the
doom of silver, as some people suppose.
The special session was called for a single
and definite purpose-the repeal of law
which is regarded as the cause of great
financial disturbance resulting in terrible
distress. The idea may be erroneous;
time will tell. But both parties and all
classes condemned the Republican blum
der. and Democratic action for its removal
is logical and orthodox. That out OF the
way. we hope for something to be done
which will improve the situation and
advance silver to the position which both
the great parties have declared in their
platforms to be according to the financial
policy of the nation.

SALT LAKE CITY, Aug. so, 1898.
To the Editor of THE HERALD:
DEAR SIR-What are the correct game
laws of Utah territory? There are two
books of revised game laws in circuia-
ton, one says ducks, geese, etc., are pro-
tected from the 1st day of April to the LIST

from the 18th day of March to the 18th of
August. Which is correct? Respectfully,
A READER.
The law for the protection of game and
birds, approved March 10, $780, as
amended by two acts OF March 10, 1892,
provides that:

WHEN ASKED for proof that the Presi-

two or three names of prominent Demo-

were buildozed or bought, what the
nature of the coercion was or the price of

Postal-Card Dunning.

There is a very general impression
among merchants and others who are
particularly interested in the subject
that it is criminal offense under Uni
ted States laws to mail a dunning let
ter written on postal card. A person
in this neighborhood wrote to the First
Assistant Postmaster-General asking
for Information, and received reply
giving the decision of Judge Thayer,
December IA, 1889, on the wording of
postal card that was mailable and one
that was not. The mailable one reads:
"Please call and settle account, which
is long past due, and for which our
collector has called several times, and
oblige." The unmailable one reads:
You owe me $3.50. We have called
several times for same. Ifnot paid at
once We shall place it with our law
agency for collection" The last SEN
tence, it is stated, ruled out this COM
munication. Postal cards are not mail
able if they contain language Of a
Threatening character" and it is a
very serious threat to the average man
to tell him that you are going to sue
him. There is no law, however, to
prevent you from putting an y on
your card to let your debtor under
stand that you are really cross with
him.

THREE BIG QUESTIONS.
Members of the Next Congress Polled Nan
by Man-Strons Changes of Sentiment
in Favor of the Repeal Of the Sher.
man Law-Against the In
come Tax and State


New YORK, June S.-The World
has interviewed nearly all the men,
bers Of Congress by telegraph on the
following questions:
1st. "Do you with your present in
formation favor repeal of the Sherman
silver bill?"
End. "Do you favor an income taxi"
Sd. Do you favor repeal of the State
bank tax?-
Tie World in reporting their an
swers says: "Many Of the answers devi-
ate so far from the plain yes or mo-
and involve so many qualifications
that a tabular statement would not
fairly represent the opinions they ex-
press. The important facts shown are
that to the first question, DO you
favor the repeal of the Sherman silver
bill?' there are s6 representatives who
say practically 'yes,' while only is sey
no. Of the rest many who qualify
their answers so strongly that they can
not be fairly placed in the affirmative
column, show plainly that their in-
clinations are in favor of a repeal. The
sentiment of the lower house on that
question seems to be overwhelming.
The World has already polled the
Senate on the silver bill and March 9th
last printed tables showing that that
body stood for repeal 80, against IS,
non-committal 16. It will be noticed
that several who were non-committal
then are now in favor of the repeal.
There seems to be no doubt now that
two thirds of the Senate will vote that
way. "
"The newer question of income tax
develops an interesting situation.
Many who speak freely as to the Sher-
man bill evade or ignore this question,
but forty-fve say squarely that they
favor it and forty that they do not.
The Southern and western Congress
men are the most numerous advocates
of such tax.
"On the State bank tax question
opinion is almost as one sided as in re-
gard to the Sherman bill. Many dodge
it entirely but sixty say positively they
are against the repeating the tax while
thirty favor the repeal"

Reform and "Refawm." ;"
1Greenville News. ]

\ correspondent wants toknow what
the Greenville News means by speak
ing editorially of "refawm" and says
he can find no such word in any die
tionary.
"Refawm" is an improvised word in
tended to meet the times and condi-
tiOns.
Reform" Is hard, honest word. 1t
comes from the throat solidly and car
ries deal of strong and earnest mean
ing. We have noticed, however, of
recent years in this part Of the country
that it has been given new significance
by the fashionable method ofpronunci-
alton. The average orator no% produces
it from the roof of bis mouth with a
kind Of mushy accent as if be was
doubtful aboutit, rather afraid of break
ing something with it if he said it too
loud, but felt compelled to use it fire.
ouently.
Reform" is usually associated with
some specific evils to be corrected or
progress to be sought. "Refawm' is
merely a sound intended to tickle the
ears of voters and give politicians and
office seekers a preteXt for being before
the public. They mouth "refawm"
with a kind of long, slow, shallow
sound like the man who has been in
vited to address the Sunday-school feel
ing his way around rocky episode in
the history Of one Of the patriarchs. 1t
doesn't sound free and clear and gen.
uine.
Reform is a real thing-a thing
which the purest and highest, strong
est and bravest men Of all ages have
worked and suffered and died for. "Re-
fawm" is simply wind-a sound signi-
flying nothing but desire for votes and
offices, salaries and power.
That is the difference we make be-
tween "refprm" and "refawm.'

Rent BY a Mighty Blast.
From the Eureka Standard. I

luC
On Saturday last large blast of
powder was exploded at the Jacoby
Creek quarry, where rock for harbor
improvement is being obtained. The
blast loosened hundred thousand tons
of rock from the face Of the cliff, and it
tumbled down to the railroad track.
In order to place the charge of powder
where it would have the best effect
upon the firm rock, horizontal tun-
mel sixty feet from the face of the cliff
was drilled into the face Of the cliff a
distance of fifty feet. At the end of
this tunnel two branch tunnels were
made at right anglas to the main tun-
mel distance of twenty feet each. At
the end of the two branch tunnels the
blasts were placed, three tons of pow
der in all. Then the tunnels were filled
up with rock and earth, after which
the powder was discharged by elec-
tricity.
When the powder exploded the face
of the cliff seemed to lift up and jump
out and the top to fall in, and the
whole mass of rock came tumbling
down amid a deafening, rumbling,
crushing, and grinding noise. The
cliff is about four bundled feet high,
and the blast took off a tremendous
mass of solid rock, which rolled down,
filling up the canon and covering the
railroad track. Nearly hundred thou
sand tons of rock was brought down in
various sized boulders, from as small as
a bushel basket to as large as dwell
ing house. The large ones, Of course,
will have to be blasted again before
handling.

THE FARMERS COLLEGE.
4 Determined Contest for the Presidency of
the Institution-The College will be
Opened on July 6.
Especial to News and Courier. I


COLUMBIA, June 9.-The members
of the board of trustees Of Clemson
College returned to the city this eve
ming and report that everything will
be in readiness on the 9Th of July for
the formal opening Of the Farmers
College. There were twelve out of the
thirteen members Of the board present,
Senator Redfearn finding it impractical
bic to come from his home in Chester
field. The most important business was
the election of a president.
Fol months the trustees have been
looking around for the right man. 1t
was thought that by this time selec-
tion could he made. 1t seems, however,
that there is difference of opinion as
to whoi is the right man and when the
board decided to temporarily give up
the solution of that problem there was
an exact division Of sentiment in favor
of the selection Of Prof. Craighead, Of
Woford College, and Prof. Murphy, of
the Arkansas Agricultural College. At
the outset there were 4 number of can
didates, but the race soon narrowed
down to President Clute, Of the Michi-
gan College, and Prof. Murphy, of Ar
kansas, and Prof. Craighead, of Spar
tanburg.
The two last ballots were evenly d.
vided between Messrs. Craighead and
Murphy. The board decided to post
pone the election and if possible have
personal interviews with the candi-
dates. There were a number of other
names suggested for the same position,
but they merely received compliment
tary ballots.
Prof. Stonewail Tompkins, of the
Virginia Manual Labor School, was
elected assistant professor in the me-
chanical department and will have
charge of the civil and mechanical en-
gineering cnair.
Prof. J. 2. Moncreath, of the Able
vile Graded School, was elected tutor
ia mathematics.
The board passed number of orders
to pay for expenses already incurred
and to meet those for the opening of
the College. It was definitely decided
that the College would be opened on
the 9Th of July, and it is announced
with authority that there will be
plenty of room for all that wish to enter
the institution.
Those who have any idea of attend
ing Clemson need have no fear on the
lack of accommodation. The work of
cleaning up the premises has been
started, and when the students arrive
at Clemson they will find there brand
new and bright little village.
