SECRETARY OF WAR LAMONT will soon
have laid before him the plans of a
travelling crematory to incinerate the
dead upon the field of battle. The OBJ
jections to cremation do not apply TO
deaths upon the field of battle. After
a battle the dead are left upon the
field, while the remnant of the army
marches or retreats. Or there is a
hasty stop for the dead; pits are dug
and the comrades literally shoveled in,
often without burial ceremonies. The
oven of the travelling crematory can be
heated to 1900 degrees in an hour 1t
can also be used in towns. The appa-
ratus is very unpretentous

PLAIN QUESTIONS.

The Editor of the News would like
to ask Judge Earle few questions.
Why did you, Joseph Fl Earle, with
draw from the democratic Legisla-
tive ticket in Sumter, in 1876 at the
darkest hour os, the Hampton cam
paign?
Did you not, in the gallery of the
House Of Representatives, when the
Sumter Earle delegation was turned
out OF the convention, advocate, in
speech to those around, you bolt
and ticket in opposition to Tillman?
Did you believe then as now in
what you call the rule of the major
ity?
Why did you consent to run against
Richardson in 1888 as Tillman's man,
after you had denounced Tillman in
Sumter for false charges against the
Richardson administration of which
you were part?
Who brought you out in 1890 after
the 21 conference had brought out
Bratton as candidate against Till
man?
Will you be kind enough to tell the
people how Geu. Bratton was treated
in your own county. Sumter. when
he was running with you making COM
mon cause against Tilmau. and your
committee was in charge Of al ar
rangements for the campaign meet
ing?
Are you willing to say now, as you
so often said in 1890 on the stump,
that the She'll Manifesto, which Till
man himself wrote, begins and ends
with lie and is a lie from beginning
to end !? If you have changed your
mind about this manifesto will you
kindly tell the people upon what
ground and what newly discovered
facts have brought such a wonder
full change Of view iu SO short q
time.
The columns Of The News are at
your service, and, by answering these
simple questions, you will confer a
great favor upon much per-
plexed public Darlington News

Special 10 The State.

Special 10 The State.
RICHMOND, June 80 Several times
since the bond scandal has become 80
prominent the name Of Dir. John
Shelton Williams, the energetic and
prosperous young banker of this city,
has been mentioned in connection
with the question, "Who got those
commissions ?'' This afternoon |
called on Mr. Williams and had a
talk with him in regard to the matter.
He gives an interesting chapter to
the bond business as member of
the syndicate. He says that he took
the matter up. after Mr. Lancaster's
failure and the agreement to pay Mr..
Rhind a commission, which has been
mentioned, was stated to them by
Mr.. Rhind. The people composing
the syndicate then thought the invest
ment a good one with the commits
sion allowed, and took the bonds.
lie confirms to the letter Col. Has,
kall's statement, recently published,
and says Mr. Rhind stated that he
could nl i've them (the amount they
expected as commissions, because
"A large portion of it had to be paid
to parties whose services and inhu.
ences were necessary i'll the general
assembly. He says he did not know
to whom Mr.. Rhind referred. They
had no right to ask him, yet they had
no idea that it would be used for any
improper purpose" Mr.. Rhiud gave
them to understand ALL the way that
this commission was to be so disposed
of. SO far as he knows the drafts
were divided in order that the amount
should be given to "his associates" ;"
He never heard anything said con.
Meeting any State officers with the
transaction In reply to question
he said: "No 1 have never heard one
word to sonnect any State officer
with the matter, beyond Mr.. Rhind's
statement, which any one can con.
strue. Mr.. Rhind or Mr. Lancaster
can tell you about the whole matter,

He said he knew that Mr.. Evans
was Rhind's attorney in the matter

Special to the State.

RICHMOND, July 2.-This has been
the greatest day the south has ever
known. The patriotic scenes presented
here to day are the greatest in her his
tory, and beggm description The
Lee celebration six years ago has been
far outdone.
10 the grand parade there were vet
erans from all the southern states. and
even from far away California. South
Cardinals palmetto boughs were the
feature of the parade.
Before the procession, which took i've
hours to pass given point, had gone
far. nearly all the veterans, the gener-
ais and everybody else, wore a sprig of
the historic tree.
At the head of the procession we're
little girls carrying banners of the va.
7ious States. South Carolina's little
representative was at the head of them
all! Although there we're so many
States fully represented, and old Vir-
giuinia was at her best, South Carolina
made a splendid show The palmetto
boys were there 1,500 strong. aud Col.
Tom Woodward created great merri-
ment by breaking out of ranks and
kissing beautiful young Virgiuian of
% summers. when she dared "that
pretty, iovial old vet'' to "dare to do, ="
and her father approved. He was a
vet, too.
General Hampton was once more CIV
en- a royal reception. He sat splendid
charger like youth. standing where
the procession entered franklin street,
and was cbeered to the echo time and
time again 1t was continuous aud
stirring ovation to the grand old hero.
General Hampton later rode at the
head of the cavalry vets. and all along
the line he was loudly cheered Dr..
Taylor aud Col. Thomas Taylor rode
by his side. General Butler ran down
from Washington and was in the pro-
cession.
Cardinals sponsor and her maids,
with the Louisiana sponsor, occupied the
first theae Of the sponsors carriages. Our
three girls were cheered dramatically
by the old vets as they passed.
Many South Caroliniaos we're in the
Washington, D. c. delegation.
This evening after the laying of the
corner stone the Charleston camps left
for home in their private csr. Camp

Railroad Assessments.
A Very Slight Change IN the
Total of Last Year.

work getting out'his report Of the ss-
sessed value of ;be railroad property 10
the different counties in the State. A
comparison of the assessment Of 1895
with that CT 1896 shows the total has
not been materially changed. The as
sessmeut on some Of the roads has baen
increased and on others decreased. It
wil be seen that the railroads own

property 10 the State.
