IN HOURS or STORM
TURN TO JEFFERSON.
VIM. J. Bryan il the June number of tha
North American Review.

/ lUhN ~ JEfFEhSON'
VIM. J. Bryan il the June number of ths
North American Review.
During recent years organized
wealth has taken advantage of the
Iethargy Of the people, and "the
efforts to place capital on an equal
footing with, if not above. labor in
the structure of government" las
predicted by Lincoln), is becoming
more and more apparent. The poi
son in the blood has manifested
itself first IN one ferm and then in
another, until at last the people are
awakening to a realization Of the
fact that the government has drifted
from the ideals of the founders and,
with the awakening, comes the ap-
peal to all who are in favor of restor-
ing the federal government to the
principles Of the fathers.
The ship Of state must be intrust'
ed to other pilots during fair
weather, but, in the hours of storm,
the people turn TO the Sage of Mon
tlceIIo, the greatest of all thu worlds
constructive statesmen.
Born an arist9crat, he became the
first conspicuous democrat; reared
among the owners Of landed estates
he led a successful crusade against
the laws of primogeniturs and entail,
rich for the time in which he lived,
he championed the cause of the
common people
He had faith in the patriotism of
his fellow-men; and yet he was con-
ecious Of the frailties of human ma
ture, and his scheme of government
vas intended to strengthen the pub
lie servant TO resent temptation,
while it protected the people against
a betrayal of the trust reposed in
their representatives
Equal rights to all and special |
to none" was the rule
which he applied to all legislation
And how comprehensive the rule.
Applied to appropriations, it would |
limit expenditures to the needs of
an efficient government, economically |
and it would protect |
the overburdeued tax payer from
the voracious tax-eater.
Applied to taxation, it would ad- |
just the burdens of government in
proportion to the benefits received. |
1t would not permit the federal gov
eminent to rely entirely upon inter
aal revenue taxes, collected from
liquor and tobacco, and upon i'm
port duties consumption generally /
the taxss collected by both |
these methods are, in effect, graded |
income taxes, with highest rate upon
the smallest incomes.
This rule would not permit the
establishment OF financial system
designed to effect a secret but con-
slant increase in the measure of |
7alue, for the benefit of the holders
If fixed investments and to the dst-
'iment Of those who produce wealth
,wn property, or owe debts.

STATEMENT FROM MR.. HOLLER.

EDITOR YoRKvILLE ENQUIRER: My
attention has been called 10 an article
i'm your paper, issue of the 25th, in regard
to the accident which occurred at the shop
of the Carolina Buggy Co., on THURSDAY,
the 23rd instant. The writer did not come
to Yorkville with the intention of hauling
down the machinery on the elevator, but
to lower it with block and tackle, but
upon being informed by Mr.. McClain
that the elevator was ready, all except
attaching the weight, and that it would
be ready by Thursday morning. But as
to the anchorage being insecure. nothing
was ever mentioned, and as TO Mr.. Nc
Claim and Superintendent Cain advising
me not to attempt the use, it is mistake
and neither Of them gave me any such ad-
vice. The very fact that used the elevator
is proof positive that such was not the
case, as l certainly would not have rlsked
nv own life and the lives of others if
had been advised it was unsafe. There
fore. ask you TO correct these misstate-
ments through the columns OF your pa

FIGHTING IN THE PHILIPPINES.
Americans Have Commenced a Decisive
Campaign.

Americans Have Commenced Decisive
Campaign.
There has been some hot work a,
Manila during the past few days, and
the latest dispatches indicate that
fighting is still in progress. There is
every indication, too, that the Ameri'
cans have their hands about as full as
is convenient.
General Otis began his promised ad'
vance last Saturday. He has about
$1,000 soldiers in the vicinity of Ma
, nila, and in the flying column move
ment commenced Saturday, he used
about $4,000 of them. The Filipinos
in front of Manila were about $4,000
strong, strung out along the line of the
railroad, and back of them several
miles distant was Aguinaldo's main
body of reserves, including, 1t Is
thought, not less than $4,000 men.
1t seems that the advance of the
Americans against the Filipino posi-.
tions was along railroad line, and
within mile or two after passing the
outskirts of the city, it was found that
the insurgents had strongly entrenched
themselves on either side of the rail-
road line. Their entertainments were
located several hundred yards apart
and ran at such an angle with the rail.
road line as to intelligently command
the situation over columns following
that line of march.
The fighting of the Filipinos is de-
scribed as unusually stubborn. In
stead of retreating as heretofore, as
soon as the Americans approached
within 1000 yards or such matter,
they held their fire in many instances
until the Americans were within 800
yards, and continued to fight desper-
ately until the Americans would make
a resistless charge, when they would
get out of the way as best they could.
During Saturday and Sunday the work
of the Americans consisted in driving
the Fiipinos from trench after trench
and this work was accomplished with
, a dash and heroism that was highly
creditable.
The list of causualties during Satur-
day, Sunday and Monday, includes
about 40 Americans killed and about
200 wounded. The Filipino loss in
killed is known to be heavier than the
American loss in wounded but exact
figures have not yet been cabled.
So far the American gain has been
considerable but it has also been de-
monstrated that the Filipinos are much
better fighters than they have hereto
fore been supposed to be. The Amer
leans realize fully that before they can
hope to put an end to the war, they
must give Aguinaldo a crushing blow,
and the strength of Aguinaldo seems
to be such as to make it advisable to
use considerable caution in the attempt
to deliver that blow.

SOUTH CAROLINA NEWS.


The Charleston grand jury is still
engaged in the investigation of the
Pinckney murder case. The proceed
ings are, of course, guarded as care
fully as possible. 1t is understood,
however, that much of the inquiry, last
week, was devoted TO the establish
ment of the whereabouts of Mr.. Bate
well, the affianced of one of the Misses
Barden, on the night of the shooting
At the corouer's inquest it was testi'
fed that Mr.. Batewell did not arrive
in Charleston until the next day.
The Second In Augusta.
Seven companies Of the Second regi'
ment are now encanped in Augusta
where they will be mustered out, the
original order to muster out at Savan'
nah having been changed. The re-
maiuder of the regiment was expected
to arrive yesterday. The health OF
the regiment is good. twenty-five
man were left in Cuba; but they will
be sent home soon on a hospital ship
The soldiers are very comfortably sit
uated in Augusta and it will be a
month or more before they will be
finally discharged from the service.
Trial of Mrs. Hughes.
Mrs. Matte Hughes was on trial in
Greenyille last week for the murder OF
her husband in that county last fall.
Mrs. Hughes is said to be young and
handsome. She had not lived happi-
" with her husband for quite while,
and finally, during the course of a
quarrel, shot him. Most of the testi'
mony at the trial was to the effect that
the shooting was deliberate murder
assassination. After the shooting, Mrs
Hughes tried to get her husband t.
saw it was accident. He said he knew
that he would die and told her that he
dared not die with such lie on his
lips. He stated in the presence of wit
nesses that the shooting was done on
purpose. At the trial Mrs. Hughes
admitted the shooting, but claimed
that it was accidental. After delibera
ting on the case for several hours, the
Jury failed to agree and the court or
dered mistrial. Mrs. Hughes re-
marked that this was better than :
verdict against her.
