permanent good. The common sense
method of treatment is to purify the

a Very Expensive War.

The civil war coast the North $780,
100000. The pensions since have
amounted to S1,50O,O000O0. But this
is not all. at the present time, nearly
thirty years after the close of the war,
100000 more persons are drawing pen
sions than there were union troops in
the field at any single time during the
struggle and 1000 applications remain
to be acted upon. Already, our pen
sion expenses exceed those of all the
nations of the earth: Where will 1t
end? What will the war between the
States finally cost US? In 1861 the tctal
value of all the property ia the States
that seeded was S5,0O0,OOO,OO0. The
New Orleans Picayune suggests that in
view of the enormous expense of the
war 1t would have been more econonl-
cal if the North and South had settled
their differences on a cash basis. 1t
would have saved billions of dollars and
hundreds of thousands of lives if the
North had secured the emancipation of
the slaves by paying full price for en-
tire 100000 of them. When we get
through paying for it history will re.
cord the fact that our civil war was
the most expensive conflict In ancient
or modern times.

heard the noise and went to the house
of Mr.. Turner, who clerked for Mr..
Minis, and called him up. Mr.. Turner
went to the store and Mcleod ran out.
He shot at Mcleod, the ball striking
him in The abdomen. Mcleod, hoWeV-

tered patiently waited for daylight:

ASSESSMENT OF RAILROAD.
Slight Reductions Made n the Assess
ments OF Most OF Them,

Slight Reductions Made n the Assess
ments OF Most OF Them.
COLUMBIA, S. c.. May 3l.-The State
Board of Railroad Equalization held a
meeting yesterday and made the assess
ments on the railroads for tue ensuring
year.
The Board is composed OF State Tre-
asurer Bates as chairman, Attorney
General Buchanan, Secretary Of State
Tindal and Chairman Duncan, of the
Railroad Commission.
The session of the Board did not last
over three hours but every road in the
State was gone over and the assess
ments on each fixed. The assessments
are not final; at least changes may be
made in some of them. Each road has
been notified of the amounts 1t was as
sessed at and will be given an opportu.
nifty to enter protests or to ask for
changes. The next meeting will be
held on June9.
Secretary Norton, of the Board, was
too busy yesterday to give the figures
to the puplic but from different sour
ces il was leared that there has been
SllSuS SCallus LII I4C dSSCOoCd4Shlo Va q
majority of the roads. The assessments
of some Of the new roads, notably the
Wilson Short Cut and the Georgia.
Carolina and Northern, have been in
creased. The object of the Board in
the reductions and increases was to
equalize taxation. The two new roads
mentioned have played havoc with the
business of some of the old roads and
have consequently diminished the val
ue of the latter.
1t is understood that the Columbia
and Greenvillee, the Charlotte, Colum-
bia and Augusta, the Spartanbuag, IN
ion and Columbia and the Piedmont
Air Line, all of the Richmond and
DanVille system, have had reductions
made in their assessments. The reduc-
tions run from $4,000 to $4,000 per
mile. The Atlantic Coast Line and the
Port Royal and Augusta roads have
also been given reductions. The largest
cut was made in the Three Cs Road.
which will hereafter pay $1,000 instead
of $4,000 mile. The assessment of
the South Carolina road Will remain as
it is, $4,000 per mile.
The assessment of the Columbia and
Greenville road last year was S1O,5OO
per mile; the Char lotte, Columbia and
Augusta $4,000 per mile; the Pied
mont Air Line $4,000 per mile; the
Coast Line S13. 600.
The total reduction will not be heavy
probably 100000 or 100000 in the en-.
tire State,
The following shows the amount of
railroad property by counties in this
State, and on which the roads paid in
