DAYTON Items,

Charles Smith has returned from
Russell county. He reports crops
better there.
O. w. Mousley has sharpened his
ak and gone to the timber He is an
old time backwoodsman, and if his
ax-handle holds out somebody will
have a fire.
The commissioners have notified
the trustees that the strictest econo-
my must be observed in the matter OF
taking care Of the poor. That is
right. The strictest economy should
be observed in all the affairs Of the
county during these close times. The
expenses Of the county should be
curtailed in every matter possible.
/ would like to say a word IN re-
gsrd to the Pitcher supplements sent
out by the republican press. One
would think from reading them that
such operations were never perform
ed before, when in fact the only
strange thing about the matter is that
it is used at all as campaign argu-
ment that free SilUer and government
control of railroads is wrong. II
Morrill, had said, Il am ashamed OF
the republican press Of Kansasl in
stead of the cowardly utterance he
made at Kansas City, Kansas. shortly
after his nomination, he would have
commanded the admiration mot the
disgust of all who love truth, and to
it we would say "Amenp BUCKEYE.

The Silver Question.

The silver question is very simple
This question of ratios and dollars of
the same intrinsic value is one Of
Wall and Lombard streets modern
inventions. There is not enough gold
and silver mined in the world each
year to furnish money sufficient to
keep pace with the increase Of popu-
lation and business. There is not
gold and silver enough in the United
States to do this If not one dollar
went abroad. Now how can we check
the fall in price Oh anything? Why,
by increasing the demand, of course.
But when we strike silver down as
money we don't increase the demand
for it, but decrease it. If we want to
increase that demand we want to in
crease its uses. In other words, let
the government say to every man
who has silver, 81 will coin it into
dollars of 4121 grains each, free Of
charge" and silver at once is placed
on a parity with gold. No man can
show that as long as this or any other
government had free coinage of sill
yer that it was not worth as much as
gold. Suppose that the government
should say to the mne owners, II will
pay $40 a ton for hard coal and $5 for
soft conl," don't you know that every
body else would have to pay that
price as long as the government con-
tinued to buy? Free coinage means
that the legal and commercial value
of silver shall be the same, And this
will be true SO long as the product of
silver does lot amount to more than
we need to coin each year for money
to keep pace with the business Of the
country. 1t is true that the mine
owners will profit by this, but not
more so than the wheat and cotton
growers, and other producers in the
land, Besides, this objection can be
urged with equal propriety against
gold, because free coinage increases
the value Of gold. II the government
should make those prices on hard and
soft coal, does anyone suppose that
these prices would chaDge-thus
changing the ratio? That is, would
it be likely that soft coal would only
bring S3 while hard coal would bring

fall weather is just delightful, wheat
looking fine, and farmers gathering
their corn and making their cider.
There are about eighteen thousand
acres near here, formerly known as
the ScSoto Marsh, so.called because
the Scioto river overAows and spreads
out on either side of its channel.
About eight years ago syndicate
deepened the channel of the river,
ditched the marsh and thus brought
the entire tract INTO market. Onions,
potatoes and cabbage are raised here
in fabulous quantities. Henry Price
has this year sixty thousand bushels
of onions. Robert Laughlin cleared
off eighty acres of onions seven thous-

is receiving considerable attention
here is sweet corn. Several dryers
are, in operation. An average yield
is eight barrels per acre, dried, and it

"The Times" Campaign Rates.
In order that no citizen of the
southwest may have an excuse for
not being posted on the developments
of the interesting political campaign
which is just opening, The Times has
made special campaign rate of 81
so for the daily and Sunday paper,
and 35 cents for The TlUice-0- Week
Times until January l. While The
, Times is an earnest and fearless sup
porter Of democratic principles, it is,
and always has been, liberal enough
to open its columns to representatives
of different political opinions for the
discussions of their views. In the
columns of The Times the important
news of the campaign of 1894 will be
set forth fully and fairly. Its news
facilities are unequalled by those of
any other newspaper published in the
southwest. At the prices made either
the daily or the TtCice-a- Week edition
should be in the hands of every man
who holds to those economic prlnci-
pies for the success of which the peo-
pie of the west are contending.
Liberal terms to agents and post
masters. Sample copies free.

In 1890 there was quite an anti
prohibition agitation. Charles Rob-
inson, the democratic candidate, re-
ceived 1000 votes, while Governor
Humphrey received $4,000, showing
that he ran 5000 votes behind the
secretary of state, There we're in all
probability, anti-prohibition republic
cans, who went to make up the excess
of Robinson's vote. And Willetts,
the peoples party candidate for gov
ernor, ran 5000 votes behind his party
vote, which went to Robinson, who
must have received $4,000 from these
two sources. Robinson ran ahead of
his party 10000 votes. The difference,
1000 votes, was probably the number
of anti. prohibition republicans who
voted the whole democratic ticket,
which should he added to the repub-
lican vote and deducted from the
democrats. This change would give
the republicans 10000 votes in 1890,
and the democrats $4,000.
This fall the democratic vote will
not exceed 10000 votes, leaving 10000
to go to the populists. The prohibit
ton vote will reach probably 10000
votes, the majority Of which will come
from the republicans. These figures
would elect the populist state ticket
by $4,000 plurality, which we think is
possible. But it will be elected at all
events by a large plurallty.-PreSSs

Wife and Daughter Slain.

FLORENCE, Dec. IA shocking
tragedy occurred about four miles
from here this morning Mr.. Etsell
T. Adams, prominent plan'er, who
has lived in this county for years,
became suddenly insane and killed
his wife, his fourteen year-oid daugh-
ter and himself.
Mr.. Adams insanity was inherited
his father having also committed
suicide by drowning himself in a
well, and brother having shown
evidences Of an unsound mind.
There were no witnesses of the
terrible scene. Mr.. r. 7. Henagan
aud Mr. Ezell Roole who were in the
neighborbood, heard gunshots and
fastened to the Adams house. The
body of the girl lying dead on the
ground several yards from the house,
Was the first thing that they saw.
Her head had been horribly crushed
with gun used as club-the
broken stock lying by her side 1t
is supposed that she was trying to
escape to barn where some hands
were at work. But the madman
overlook her and his mad work was
soon done.
MIR. Roole rescued Mrs. Curran
and her child who had been IN a
room in the house but had not wit
messed the killing
Mr.. Henagan drove off in his
buggy to summon help. MIR. Hoole
took Mrs. Curran away.
When the neighbors arrived they
found that Adams had killed himself
by shooting pistol bullets through
his breast aud head. He had also
cut his own throat and had swallowed
strychine-tlis last before the killing
occurred
Mrs. Adams was found lying ON
the floor IN the dining room. 1t is
thought that she was the first victim.
Her head was mangled ia shocking
manner
Two of Mr.. Adams children escap-
ed aud were taken care of by neigh
bors. One of these was at school i'll
Florence and the other at the Con-
federate Home in Charleston.
: Mr.. Adams was brother-in-law OF
the Rev w. I. Thompson, of Char
lesion, and was closely related to the
family of the late Judge Presley. He
has long been known to be unbalanc-
ed in mind, but such terrible act as
that thus described was of course
considered impossible.

December Is.

The House Of Representatives after a
full debate passed joint resolution to
extend the time for the payment OF
taxes fr"m January l next to March l
The original resolution was to extend
the time to March TO- This was the
principal feature Of the morning session
so far as the interest of the State in the
proceedings is concerned.
The House had what might be called
an all-rouud working day, and great
many proposed new laws were quickly
disposed Of. One Of the most import
ant bills to go through was that re-or-
gapizing the system Of boards of health
in cities aud towns and defining the
powers and duties of the boards copsti-
tuted by the bill. The bill to pay the
expenses of the Darlington war also
went through like q fash. The bill re-
lating to sewing machines was killed,
as was also nearly every bill relating to
changes in the county government bill.
1t killed the Senate bill to abate all
taxes due the State by those citizens of
Georgetown County who have suffered
losses BY the storms of 1893 and 1894.
rendering them unable to pay said taxes
for the fiscal year 1892 aud 1893.
Six bills passed a third reading aud
were ordered sent to the Senate.
Among them was che Jim Crow" car
bill.
MIR. Williamson's s bill to re.enact the
acts chartering the Sumter and Wa
.eree Railroad Company and to extend
the same. was taken up and promptly
passed to third reading.
At IL o'clock the House aud Senate
met in joint session in the hall Of Rep
resentatives to hear au address on cdu-
cation by Dr. Curry, the we'll known
lecturer and educator. Dr.. Curry vas
introduced by Senator Tillmau aod was
heartily received by the audience which
included large number Of ladies and
other spectators who filled every avail
able chair on the floor and nearly all 10
the galleries. The young ladies Of the
! Winthrop Training School were out 'n
full force
Dr.. Curry paid high compliment to
Ex-Governor Tillman, whom he called
friend Of the children Of the State.
Mr.. Gary's joint resolution to author
ize and require the Comptroller Cen
erai to draw his warrant in favor of the
Carolina National Bank for $l2, 898. 10.
and the State Treasurer to pay the
