VALUATIONS RAISED.
The State Board Of Equalization
Adds to Dickinson's Assessment.

The county clerk has received
notice from the State board Of equal
ization that the county's valuation
has been raised for the purposes of
State taxation from S4,79l, 1868 to
s., 05S, 727, an increase of S26l,564.
This is still less than last year when
it was S5,ll2,64S. The State taxa
ton levy is $50 mills divided as fol-
lows:
General revenue ...,,..3. 5mlH. N,,7O5 "a
Interest fund ,.,....... . -. i,oli a
University fund 2 " go. Toll "A
slo,,ss ~
A REIMBURSEMENT of the county levy
to correspond with the increase in
valuation will be necessary.
As the farmers pay the additional
tax caused by an increased valuation
on lands in the county it will be well
to remember that the railroad valua-
ton Of the county was lowered by the
State board 500, 1859. The way
this Pop administration is furnishing
railroads is a caution. 1t is going to
cost the lands Of the county $1,000
more in taxes this year because Of
railroad reduction-md yet the rail-
roads seem to be paying about as
good dividends as the farms.

WASHINGTON, Aug. l5.-Thc tariff
bill is expected to reach the president
some time to-day, after which he Will
have a week from next Monday Au-
rust ~, if he desires ii, in which to
consider it before returning II to the
senate. 1t can be stated almost with alb
absolute certainty that the bill will be-
come law, either by the presidentssg
nature or by his returning It in ten days
without action, the presumption being
largely In favor Of the latter alterna'
tive. The president has repeatedly
stated to friends that he could not
sign the bill, but during the day many
Of his closest personal friends have
urged him to sign the bill without de-
Law. Several reasons were urged,
among them the fact that the opening
of fall trade was close at hand, and
that delay Of ten days might result
in serious loss Of customs revenues.
Another reason stated was that con-
gress was extremely anxious to adj

slant attendance for over Il year, and

Possibilities in the Tenth.

Congressman Black and Mr..
Tom Watson may find several
big stumbling blocks in their
way to a settlement of the tenth
district contest after their own
fashion. There appears to be a
disposition in the district to kick

The people may conclude, If
there must be another race, to
bring in two fresh racers. Mr..
Watson's proposition seems to
have been made in the belief that
he is still the Populist candidate

pears to have consented to the
proposition is the understanding
that he will continue TO be the
Democratic candidate after he
has resigned his commission. AS
a matter of fact the election OF
November 6 put an end to the
candidacy of each gentleman.
Mr.. Watson was beaten; that GER
tainly put an end to his candi-
dacy. Mr.. Black was elected,
which, if there is any virtue in
election certificates, ended his
candidacy. Thus the election
took the matter entirely out OF
the hands of the candidates. Il

sign if ne pleases. But whef
he resigns he will place himsel1

There is Nothing to Fear,

There is nothing in the cry
that the country is in danger from
communism. No nation can be
in danger from communistic
theories which is able to borrow
at three per cent. interest fifty
millions of dollars to borrow it,
too, without notice, so to speak.
There is a great deal of foolish
talk in tits free land on the
rights of the rich, and as to what
ought to be done to prevent the
wealth of the country from being
concentrated in a few hands; but
this talk represents so few per
sons that it might well be ig-
nored. 1.-The great heart of the
nation" said Franklin Pierce,
when Daniel Webster had just
died, 1.-The great heart Of the ma

great heart of the nation beats

are recounted in the hearing OF

prejudice against rich men be-

THE BEAUTIFUL LIGHT.

Eve travelled many weary league,
Through many a foreign land;
Across the waves of a misty sea.
O'er wastes of burning sand;
I've sought for beauty in the North,
And under the Southern skies
But there's nothing fairer on ear th I
Than the light in my dear loves
eyes
The beautiful light,
God bless the sight.
The light in my dear loves eyes.
The burdens of life press hard and
fast,
The way grows dark and drear,
My purpose flags, my eyes grow dim,
My heart is filled with fear
But ID light breaks through, the sky
is bright.
All clear my pathway lies,
For a love shines forth to strengthen
me,
In the light OF my dear loves
eyes
The beautiful light,
God bless the sight.
The light in my dear loves eyes.
This light CLEANS ever before mine
eye,
\ beacon so strong and true,

In the work | have to do
Aud so when life at last is Ger.
And my spirit upward flies,
May a ray stream down to greet me

From the light in my dear loves

The beautiful light,
God bless the sight!

A Significant Letter,

WASHINGTON, Dec. 6.-The
Republican Congressional Com
mittee has sent out significant
letter in regard to contested
seats in Congress. There are
upwards of thirty districts
wherein defeated Republicans
have indicated their intention of
filing contests. The committee
has addressed to each of these
contestants a statement notify
ing him that he must not place
any reliance on the large Re
publican majority in the nextCon
gress, but must rest his pros
poets for success on the merits
of the claims he advances. Prob
able contestants were advised not
to'file their papers unless they
were able to reinforce them
with testimony of the most un-
impeachable character.

RELIGIOUS LIBERALITY.

AS the Atlanta Journal says, a
beautiful illustration of re-
ligious liberty was given to Rich
mond on Thanksgiving day.
Dr. .Hoge, the Presbyterian
preacher, at the invitation of
Rabbi Colsech, addressed TIE
congregation of Beth-Ahaba
synagogue. DIR. Hoge's address
delighted all who heard it. Jew
and Christian equally. He
preached broad truths which all
good men accept and upon
which the virtue and welfare of
the world depend. His remarks
were based mainly on the event
full history and heroic deeds of
the Jewish people but in this rec
ord he found lessons which ap-
ply to all men and to all times.
DR.. Hoge said that the
Jewish people had cause to
give thanks not only because of
heir preservation through SO
many affections, but those who
heard hi1o should be especially
thankful because they live in a
land where they are free to wor
shin God accOr6jno to tho die
tates of their own consciences.
The sermon is said to have
made deep impression on all
who heard it, and the example
set by Rabbi Calesh and Dr..
Hoge in arranging such an event
cannot fail to produce good re-
suits. If we had more such re-
ligion tie world would be much
better.

South Carolina.

COLUMBIA, Dec. 3.-The Su-
preme Court begau hearing ar
guments this morning on Sena-
tor NJ. G. Buffers petition to
make permanent an injunction
restraining the State Treasurer
from paying election committees
and managers at the recent cleo
tiOn, on the ground that the cleo
tion laws are unconstitutional.
If this claim is upheld, it would
of course make the Legislature
which is to elect Senator Buffers
successor and which is composed
largely of friends of Gov. Till
man, Illegal. The Attorney Gen
eral was first heard in return to
the rule to show cause. He took
the position that the election law
constitutional. The Attorney
General also took the posi-
ton, and cited authorities to
maintain it. that a beneficiary of
the law and one who has acqui-
eSced in the enforcementO of a law,
cannot bring an action alleging
the unconstitutionality of law.
One must allege special injury to
bring action. He cannot bring an
abstract proposition for the
Court to decide. He then alluded
to the fact that Senator Butler
was a beneficiary of the law, and
that since 1882, when the law was
passed, he had drawn $50, 600
through the operation of the law.
The hearing will be resumed to-
morrow.

evening. He said in his speech
that the Armenian atrocities had

country, and this feeling was

searching inquiry. The Foreign
Office was in active correspon-
dence with the agents near the
scene of the massacre and would
not fail to perform its full duty

An Electric Railroad.

BALTIMORE, Dec.-The Ell

cate is about to begin the con-
struction of what they claim will
be the finest electric trolley road
in the world. It is the
Washington and Laurel and is ex-
pected to be in operation by
April 1st, 1895.
The road, it lis estimated, will
cost 81, 900, 900. It will be double
tracked and laid with eighty
pound steel rails. The trains
will have a guaranteed speed of
sixty miles per hour, the fastest
schedule time for any electric or
other railway. The Blood sig
nal system will be used for the
prevention Of accidents. 1t is
proposed to have the entire line
in operation by midsummer.
