of all the fool, silly bills that have
been introduced in the various state leg
islatures throughout the country during
the past half dozen years, that in which
a South Carolina legislator undertakes to
make railroads carry state and county
officials free of charge, caps the climax.
The railroads are pretty hard customers
it is true, and they often need
watching but the state certainly has no
right to steal from them. That is what
this bill proposes to do. Maybe if the
railroads did not pay taxes, or if they
should be exempted from taxation, such
a proposition might he deserving of more
or less consideration but as long as the
railroads are required to bear their share
of the burdens of the state government,
it is certainly no more than right that
the state should pay the railroads for
such services as they may be called upon
to render. May as we'll require livery
stables, merchants, lawyers, doctors, and
other businesses and professions to give
their services free. 1t would be no more
unjust in one case than the other.

To RAISE THE BOYCOTT.
Congress Comes to the Relief of Georgia
Negro Postmaster.

The people of Hogansville, Ga,
have for sometime past been boycotting
a Negro postmaster who was appointed
against their wishes. Instead of pa.
tronizing the postoffice, the people of
the town and vacinity began to mail
their letters on the train. The post
master general put stop to this, and
then the people arranged to send their
mail matter by special carrier TO neigh
boring towns. As the result, the sala-
nv of the postmaster has been reduced
to mere pittance. He has continued
to hold the fort, however, and on
Thursday Representative Bingham, of
PENNSYLVANIA, introduced bill which
is intended 10 give the postmaster re-
lief.
The Bingham bill provides that no
one shall "without authority from the
postmaster general, set up or profess
to keep any office or place or business
bearing the sign, name or title of post
office, or who, not being in the postal
service, conveys mail matter regular
ly from a postofice to his place of
business or to any place other than an
established postofice or branch post
office for distribution therefrom, or
who directly or indirectly solicits ver-
bal, written or printed orders on any
postmaster for the regular or frequent
delivery of mail matter to be subse-
uuently delivered to the addresses at
his place of business or elsewhere than
at un established postoffice or branch
postoffice, with view of encouraging
or preventing the patrons of such post
offices from visiting the same, or who
regularly or frequently takes, gathers
or accepts mail matter for deposit in
mail cars or elsewhere than III the
nearest local postotfice for the purpose
of decreasing the revenues OF any such
pos,otfice or the compensation OF the
postmaster lhereat, shall for every Of
ftnse be liable TO Il penalty OF not
more than $500.

- The information that is published in
another column about adulterated flour
will, no doubt, prove startling to great
many people; but after all it strikes us
that they may as well accept the situation
philosophically. 1t is easy to see in the
first place that but few people could stand
pure wheat flour at present prices, and
since the adulteration is only of corn,
which is really as wholesome as wheat
itself, there is no harm done.

ner, we find the following:
ATLANTA, GA, Jan. %.
Mr.. Hugh Wilson, Abbeville, S. g.
My DEAR SIR Il understand you have
expressed a doubt as to whether there
was genuine case of smallpox in Geor-
gia or South Carolina. have seen in At
lanta about 300 cases Of smallpox in the
past four months. OF this number seven
have died.
was sent by the president Of the At
lanta board of health to Greenrille, >. G.,
some weeks ago, and saw there six genu-
inc cases of smallpoX-mild cases-but
genuine.
l send you today by mail pictures of
two of our cases, taken by myself. One
of white man, the other of Negro
woman. Both have recovered.
Atlanta has spent $4,000 in caring for
the sick and in checking the disease, and
of course the city would not have gone to
this expense without knowing what she
had to deal with. There are still about SO
cases in the hospital. Most of these are
about well. Very few new cases occur in
the city now and the disease is about wip-
ell out.
You need have no fear of the pictures.
There is absolutely no danger Of con-
tracing the disease from them.
With kind regards,
Yours truly,

Texas Farmers Show the World New
Wrinkle In Co-Operation.


Wrinkle In Co-Operation.
New York Herald.
Sometime ago the citizens OF Hen
riella, of the Lone Star state, took il
into their heads that there was Oh y
one city worth anything in that part
of the earth, and that was st. Louis.
There were one or two ways OF get
ting to the middle states metropolis,
such as by walking, riding on horse
back, or driving 112 miles to the near
est railroad connection, and then it
was possible to get there by making a
long, roundabout trip by rail.
When the hopelessness of getting
financial backing become apparent,
bright men of the district hit upon the
plan that has gone ~ miles of the 112
between Henrietta and success. Stock
in the proposed road was issued to
every man who was willing to work
on the construction or give all equiva-
lent. Merchants, whose business was
of too much Importance to be neglect
ed, hired substitutes and put them to
work with pick and shovel, sledge and
drill.
Every man who is able to do SO
furnishes his own provisions. Those
who are too poor share the bounty OF
more fortunate neighbors. The sky
and the climate down there are friend
ly to man, and the open air is good
enough to bunk in, so there is no ex-
pense in that quarter. Rails and
other necessaries for building the rail-
road were obtained on credit, based on
the certainty that the road will be a
money-maker, so there is nothing in
the way of these industrious south
western socialists.

THE DAYS OF rs.
Senator Tillman Makes Some Pointed Re-
marks In Executive Session.

senator I1llman Makes some fOlnCeQ he
marks In Executive Session.
While the senate was considering
the proposed Hawaiian treaty, in exc
cutive session last Wednesday, says an
Associate Press dispatch, Senator Till
man, of South Carolina came into the
debate, making some assertions which
created a breezy stir for few minutes,
The South Carolina, senator referred
to the recent Hawaiian revolution and
10 what he termed the effort of the
Republican party to establish a gov
ernment in the interest of the white
people in the islands when they num-
bered only one out of 80 of the inhab.
itants, and in this connection referred
to the reorganization of party lines in
the south after the war. "We were
then," he said, Sin South Carolina at
tempting to establish a white mans
government. The Republican party
interferred with us then, or attempted
to do so, protesting to hold opinions
about the sacred rights of the majori-
ty to rule. l should like to know
whether the Republican party has
changed its opinion on this subject of
the right of the white man to rule; for
if it has, and will extend it to the
southern states, I will vote for the
treaty."
"The. distinguished senator from
South Carolina evidently knows all
about the effort 10 re-establish the
white mans party in the south after
the war, and could doubtless give US
much interesting information on that
point" said Senator Chandler.
81 do know something" responded
Mr.. Tilman, "and 1 know that there
was some cheating and some use of the
shotgun in those times as there prob
ably was in Hawaii"
"The senator from South Carolina
would, I hardly think" interrupted
Senator Hoar, "say in open session
what he has here"
II am willing to say it anywhere"
said Mr.. Tillman. II want the same
policy all along the line. Throw open
the doors and / will say what l have
said before the entire world"

supervisors was passed. The argu-
ment is that the powers involved are
TOO great 10 be committed to any one
individual.
The senate killed the Patton-May-
field re. districting bill, and passed the
bill to put express and telegraph com
panies under control Of the railroad
commission.
Epps, Witherspoon and Johnson
voted to strike out the enacting clause
of the Childs bill. The vote of de-
Loach is not recorded.

- The fact that the Kentucky house OF
representatives recently adopted a reso-
luton calling upon Senator Lindsay to
resign because of his anti-free silver
views, has been repeated. Because Sena-
tor Murphy, Democrat, of New York,
voted for the Teller resolution the other
day, a member of the New York house
moved that the senator be called upon
to resign. Verify, it looks as if those
newspapers which persist in declaring
that the free coinage issue is dead, must
surely be mistaken.
