AN ENTERpRiSING NEWSPAPER. Twelve Hundred Dollars in Prizes Given Away by the Springfield
 Republican.

Some one said that L. r. Murray, publisher of the Springfield Daily Republican, "was the Nefoleon of newspaper men in the Southwest" " Ito fact. HeZis.= Such enterprise as is being displayed by the Republican just ROW has Heter before been equal ed by any newspaper in the south west, or the United States, for tha5 matter, taking the size of the city the paper IS published in, into eonsldera- tion,
 The Republican is now giving away, without cost, absolutely free, over $l POO in valuable prizes, and is attract ing widespread interest all over this Southwest.
 First, the newspaper is conducting a Popular Ladies Contest" :" in which d fine S450 piano is given to the recoiv- CT of the largest number of votes, $135 organ to the second, $50 Maies tie range to the third, 8 $50 guitar to the fourth and many other lesser puzes, such as pair of shoes, ton of coal, two parlor heating stoves, sewing machines, parIor lamps, after dinner tea set, one dozen photos and one scholarship in a Business college. To even it up so all will have chance, the Republican has arranged so parties outside the city wllI also receive prizes One S60 sewing machine goes 10 the lady recriYing largest number of votes, Slo bed room set to the second and a S5 parlor lamp to the third, and they have chance al nearly all the other prizes, especially the first four. The votes are cas on a blank coupon to be found in every issue of the Republican until the close of the contest, Decem- Der If, 1097
 Second, the Republican gives away two bicycles and two life scholarships in a business college. These prizes are given to the boy or girl who sends the Pepubsiean the largest number of paid.in advanee-fora a month Daily subscribers (50c per month) by Dec, 24, IS37. The bicycles are given in Spring field, while the life scholarships are open onIvto boys and girls outside the city. This affords splendid chance to some boy and girl of Green Forest to get life scholarship free, for small amount of work.
 
 some of our young friends capture cue or both of these prizes.
 Third, to those securing weekly sub. scribers are offered fine Sl00 Grown organ and a $50 Studabaker wagon The organ is given to the lady or girl secures the largest list of paid for-in, advance subscribers (75c per year. by Dec. 24, 1897. The wagon goes to the man or boy who gets the largest list Only parties outside the city of Spring field are eligible to enter the contest on weekly subscriptions.
 The Republican is a great paper, in fact the leading paper in the South. west; glyes full and complete report of the entire world, by telegraph; a full news report of the Southwest, and the local news of Springfield and Green county in complete form. This la~' venture of the Republican, giving away Sl 200 worth of prizes, will grea Iy increase its already deserved popn larty and most particularly it's sub. scription list.
 If you are interested in either of tha Republican $ enterprises. write thul for sample copy and fnl particulars, which they gladly send on request.

Senator Mills on the Sugar Steal.

Senator Mills speech in the senate
on the tariff bill was opened with the
vigorous language for which the Texas
statesman is noted. He went after
trusts on the same old line, but with
novel metaphors, and in beginning
said: II come, sir, to speak for the
forgotten MANTLE taxpayer. l
come to speak for those from whose
pockets this vast sum is to be raised,
from whose labor and sweat day and
night this vast contribution is to be
taken. They have some right to be
heard in the councils of the nation
when their property is to be taken by
an act of legislation rapine and dis
tributed among men who have paid
no consideration for it. What are we
doing9 Building up vast and solid
%plutocracy in this country. Some
body asked the other day how many
millionaires there are in the United
States. You could count them on the
fingers of one hand before 1860. The
policies and measures adopted by the
dramatic administrations before the
war did not permit the growth of such
monsters in this country. Republi-
can policies have fostered and fattened
them. They now insolently refuse to
be taxed and insolently demand that
other people shall work out their lives
to nav them tribute"

A Close Call.

The Denmark Times says MI. Chas.
McGeiver had an adventure with a
monster rattlesnake one day last day
that he will remember till the day of
death. He was at work on Senator
Mayfeld's place near Denmark when
he discovered the snake, which was
coiled ready to strike. In an endeav.
or to kill the reptile, the fence rail
which he had used as a weapon broke
short off, and the rattler leaped at its
human enemy and fastened its fangs
in the cloth of Mr.. McGeiver's right
trousers leg. Being thus desperately
menaced Mr.. McGeiver seized the
snake around the neck with both
hands and tried to fling it from him.
The fangs of the reptile were so Sc.
curely fastened in the cloth of his
trousers, however, that he could not
break its hold. In his left hand pock-
ct was his j~ack-knife, and releasing
his grip upon the snake with his left
hand Mr.. McGeiver ished out the
weapon, opened the blade with his
teeth, and, using his left hand, sue.
ceeded in severing the snakes head
from its body. Its fangs were so firm.
~ imbedded in the trousers, however,
that it was necessary to cut out a piece
of the cloth. The serpent was a mon
ster, measuring over five feet in
length, and sporting nineteen rattles
and q button, which, together with
the skin Of the reptile, MI. MEG eiver
will preserve as trophies Of his adven-
tr,ro

brought before an examining board to
settle The question as to whether or not
he should be sent to the asylum in Co.

with his examination. one of the com.

"Yes, many a time"

jugs, bags and newspapers"
"Why, I carried them all back"

On the Right Line.

The Washington correspondent OF
the News and Courier says Congress-
man Stokes Thursday offered a joint
resolution providing for an amend
ment to the Constitution in favor OF
an income tax. When ratified by
/! three. fourths of the Legislatures of the
several States it shall be part OF the
Constitution, namely:
"Article XVI. The power OF Con-
gress to levy and collect direct taxes
shall not be restricted exclusively to
the methods of apportionment among
the several States, according to their
respective numbers, but Congress shall
have full power to lay and collect a
tax upon incomes, without regard to
the source or sources whence the In
come is derived. In laying such tax
upon incomes regard may be had to
certain classes or grades of income,
fixed by law according to amount, but
| the tax upon incomes of the same class
or grade shall be uniform throughout
the United States" .
II introduce this amendment, said
DR.. Stokes, ''to provide specifically for
q graduated tax upon incomes. So far
as I examined the resolutions already
introduced on this subject, they do
not 60 far enough in this direction. I
look confidently forward to a time
when the government must seek other
sources of revenue in lieu of the tar
if. The country will awake in a few
years from its present protection de-
bauch, and 1 would open the way for
raising revenue by direct taxation. In
my judgment, this would of itself tend
to cat down extravagant expenditures
and would thus at the same time &C.
complish two leading reforms of the
Democratic platform, reducing expen.
ses to the necessities of the Govern.
ment economically and honestly ad.
ministered, and compelling wealth to
bear its just proportion of the burdens

Kent Their Childish Vows.

At Senaca on Tuesday of last week
Mr.. Chas. +. Younger, of Spartanburg
and Miss Mabel Bancroft, of Atlanta,
were married. The following relative
to the affair and contracting parties is
taken from the Atlanta Constitution
of Thursday: Miss Mabel Bancroft,
the sixteen-year.old daughter of Nh.
George Bancroft, of this city, and Mr..
Younger, a young man OF Spartan
burg, have loved each other since
childhood. Years ago the young
couple lived next door to each other.
The boy was sixteen and Mabel Ban
croft was eleven. When the two
children parted they vowed that they
would love each other always and
would some day marry. That VOW
was kept on Thursday. The two
young people eloped and are now
happy in their South Carolina home.
Several days ago Miss Bancroft went
to visit her sister, who is the wife of
Rev. W. J. Wood, of Fairburn, Ga.
Yesterday morning she started home,
but when she reached the depot she
left for Spartanburg with Mr.. @. f.
Younger. Before leaving Fairburn
! Miss Bancroft had conided to Miss
Lizzie Marshman, another young lady
visiting Mrs. Wood, that she intended
to elope. She first bound Miss March
man to keep the elopement a secret
until after 1 o'clock, by which hour
she said she would be married to her
lover. At 1 o'clock Miss Marshman
broke the news to Mrs. Wood. The
parents of the young girl, who live on
Marietta street. r very much agi-
tated over the marriage. The first
intimation they had of the elouement
was from a telegram from Younger
himself, saying, mabel and I will be
married at $50 O'clock" The Spar
tanburg Herald speaks very highly of
Mr.. Younger.

Brice for Il armony.

Ex-senator Brice, like a good many
other gold bug Democrats, don't feel
comfortable as allies of the Republi.
cans and wants to see harmony re.
stored in the Democratic party, even
if they have to surrender their gold
bug views. 1t is reported that Mr..
Brice will 60 10 Ohio in a short time
and enter upon an active campaign in
the interest Of Democratic harmony.
Brics's idea is that the gold and silver
men should get together in the State
campaign, and make common cause
of the election of a silver man for
Governor. To this end Brice will sup.
port any silver man satisfactory to the
party at large. He believes, accord
in 10 Ohliger, that the smaller faction
should give in to the larger, and that
the gold men should therefore sacri.
fee their preferences te secure party
success. He thinks there is a good
chance to elect a silver ticket in Ohio,
and proposes that Democrats shall
take advantage of it. Mr.. Brice has
been in the West Indies, whittier he
went to recuperate. His re.entry into
Ohio politics as a harmonizer of fac
ton on a silver platform will create a
sensation among Buckeye politicians.

TMlman,a Ohlacf.

In discussing the tariff bill on Thurs
day Senator Tillman said he was one
of the Democrats voting for a duty on
law cotton. He avowed that he
wanted the bill loaded as heavily as
possible, so as to disgust the people
and make them turn the Republicans
out" If his Democratic associates
could get any consolation by twitting
him for voting for his section in this
general game of grab" well and
good. As to the Republican Senators,
he warned them that no tariff bill
would bring prosperity which gave
compensatory duties to the manufac-
turers out of the pockets of the people.
