- The Staying of Mrs. Stuart by Con-
stable Crawford was horrible affair,
and so also was the Staying of Consta-
BILE Cartledge by w. B. Meetze, Jr.
In the first tragedy there was some
element of argument against the dis
pensary law, or at least the prevailing
method of its enforcement; but the
last tragedy shows up nothing of the
kind. From all the circumstances, it
appears to have grown out of an un-
reasonable antipathy to the Office of
state constable. So far, we are unable
to see single mitigating circumstance
in favor of either Crawford or Meetze.
But in the name of civilization, in the
name of law and order, in the name of
security to life and property, let the
people drop all prejudices, political
and otherwise, and mete out in these
cases pure and unadulerated justice.
1t is time for these unwarranted kill
ings to cease.

DEMOCRATIC PARTY POLICY.
congressman Declare Against Annexatio
Of the Philippines.


ofthe Philippines.
At the instance of the Democratic
members of the committee on foreign
affairs, there was a caucus of Demo
cratic congressman in Washington las
Wednesday for the purpose of agreeing
upon a Philippine policy. The follow
lug was agreed upon by strong ma
iority; but without division, division
under the circumstances being mad
visable:
awe hold that the constitution o
the United States was ordained anc
established for an intelligent, liberty
loving and self.governing people ane
cannot be successfully applied to 6
people of different virtues and condi
tions.
1--WE hold, therefore, that colonia
policy is contrary to the theory of ouI
government and subversive of those
great principles of civil liberty which
we have been taught to cherish. We
believe with the declaration Of inde
pendence, that all governments derive
their just powers from the consent o.
the governed, and are unalterably op
posed to the establishment of any gov
ernment by the United States without
the consent of the people to be govern
ed, and in conformity with these prin
ciples, we instruct the minority mem
bers of the committee on foreign affairs
to introduce and urge the following
resolution
Resolved, That the United States
disclaim any disposition or intention to
exercise permanent sovereignty, juris'
diction or control over the Philippine
islands, and assert their determination,
when an independent government
shall have been erected therein, 10
transfer to said government, upon
terms which shall be reasonable and
just, all rights secured under the ces.
sion by Spain, and thereupon to leave
the government and coutrol of the is
lands to the people,"

TAX COLLECTIONS.

The time specified by law for the
payment of taxes without penalty ex-
pired on last Tuesday and the books
are now closed except to those who
are able to get up an additional Is per
cent.
The collections in this county,, dur
ing the months of January and Feb
ruary, amounted to the sum of ST..
554.SS, included in 240 receipts. One
of these receipts was big one, repre-
senting over $500. The balance, with
one or two exceptions, ran from $5 or
$6 downward.
The total collections up to date
amount to ss5, 5,3sO.2S. The original
book, exclusive of additionals, called
for $S7,773.66. At reasonably fair
estimate, the delinquent list will foot
up about $4,000.

- There has been friction in the
Spanish cortez during the past week
over the ratification of the peace
treaty. On this account the Sagasta
ministry handed in its resignation.
According to the text of the treaty,
ratification by the queen regent would
be sufficient; but the entire govern.
ment has seen fit to take a hand, and
hence the friction. The Washington
authorities would prefer ratification at
once; but it is said that they are not
worried. Refusal on the part of Spain
means that she will not recognize the
title of the United States to Porto
Rico and the Philippines, and that is
about all, except that this country will
not pay the s2O,OOO,OoO provided for
in the treaty, and there will be no re.
establishment of diplomatic relations
between the two countries. Spain, OF
course, is unable to help herself, other
wise she would have never agreed to
an armistice. Trade between this
country and Spain has already com.
menced.

- The sale of The Piedmont Head
light by Larry CAN'T has been post
poned rather longer than we expected !;
but now that it has come, we are not
at all surprised. 1t will be remember
ed that at the time of the establish
ment of The Headlight, The ENQUIR.
Err predicted that the arrangement
would not be permanent. AS we un-
derstood it then, the paper was estab-
lished by certain politicians for the
promotion of their political interests.
1t was used for that purpose until the
people began to see through the
scheme, and the politicians deserted
the paper as rats leave a sinking ship
and as they had to, and left CAN'T to
hold the bag. CAN'T struggled alo"g
as best he could through various vicis-
STUDIES, and finally had to yield to the
inevitable. Our prediction in the mat
ter of The Headlight did not have its
origin in an attempt at prophesy. We
were only judging what would be by
what had been. In our long expert
ence in the newspaper business, We
have noted numerous failures and sue
cesses. Honest efforts have generally

PRICE OF COTTON.

The price of cotton on the Yorkville
market ranges from about Q cents to
81 cents pound.
The Q cents cotton is stuff that has
been exposed to the weather all the
fall and winter and just now being
gathered from the fields. There is not
great deal of this coming in; but
there is some. A few bales of it have
been sold during the past week.
There is a good joke on one of the
local buyers. He is conceded to be
one of the best judges of cotton in
town; but he slipped up this time.
Here is the story. 1t is not necessary
to call names but people generally
will understand when the gentlemen
interested are referred TO as A and B.
They were at platform where B had
lot of cotton.
"What will you give me for that bale
yonder ?" asked B.
A thrust his hand in the hole that
had been left by the samplipg knife
and carelessly offered Al cents.
"Give me Al and I'll take it," said
B.
A began to see that he was stuck,
and before he could withdraw his first.
offer, B closed. Now he is having his
joke about having done A for about
$40 on single bale. He had bought
the cotton at 2 cents pound.
But this old, rotten cotton, of course,
does not count much on the market.
Prices are fixed by the good grades,
and these should bring anywhere from
81 to 81. The last named price is not
at all uncommon.

PRICE OF ARMOR PLATE.
Senator Tillman Secures Very Material
Reduction.

Reduction.
Senator Tillman has, during the past
several sessions of the senate, lost no
opportunity to take shot at the man
ufacturers of the armor plate used on
the war vessels. Up to a few years
ago, all the armor plate used in this
country, was manufactured abroad.
Its production requires an expensive
plant, backed by vast outlay of
capital. Upon the assurance of an
enormous price for their products,
Pennsylvania steel men organized a
powerful syndicate and established the
necessary plant. On their early pro-
ductions they got tremendous prices.
They have not been inclined to reduce
their figures. Just how much they
ought to have is question that can
only be arrived at with difficulty; but
it is quite likely that even $500 ton
is a big price. The matter came up
again last Wednesday during the dis.
cussion of the naval appropriation
bill. The following is fro y the report
sent out by the Associated Press:
The controversy over the price OF
armor plate was then precipitated by
Mr.. Tillman, who offered an amend
ment reducing the price fixed by the
bill from S445 per ton to $500.
Speaking of his amendment, MIR.
Tillman declared that millions of dol
lars were being squandered by the
government in feathering the nests of
the armor trust, and he felt that the
senate and country ought TO know
"what kind of d steal was going on"
He said in the course of his speech
that he proposed an alternative propo-
sition TO establish government armor
plant so that the United States could
say to the armor trust that if it did not
Yorkville enquirer. [volume] (Yorkville, S.C.) 1855-2006, 1899-03-04

supply armor at a proper price the
government would manufacture its
own armor. He said it was perfectly
evident that the two Pennsylvania ar
NOR plants had "pull, whatever that
might mean," in the other house OF
congress and were able to hold up the
price of artnor.
Mr.. Tillman became engaged in a
sharp colloquy with Mr.. Gallinger over
the subject of doing government work
| in private or. in government factories.
The latter maintained. the navy de,
part ment had held that its work could
be done cheaper by private concerns
than by the government, and that &C.
counted for the fact that private ship
yards were busy and government ship
yards idle.
Mr.. Tillman favored the doing of the
work by the government, even at an
increased price, for then labor and moi
capital would receive the benefits.
"Why," he demanded, "are we to
WELD to these armor plate thieves
these robbers2 Are we to permit these
people to order us to stand and deliv
er? I have deemed it my duty te
protest against these methods and
therefore have offered my amendment
reducing the price to $500 ton."
Mr.. Chandler, of New Hampshire
supported the amendment. Mr.. Till
man 8 amendment was adopted-34 te
26.
Senator Butler, of North Carolina
then offered an amendment providing
that if the companies refused to accept
$500 ton, the secretary of the navy
should proceed to erect an armor fac
tory at a cost of $l,50O,OOO, and ap
propriating 100000 for operating
the plant. This amendment was
adopted by vote of 80 to 81.

buy and sell every one of his associ
ates. Of course, that fact of itself is
no reason why he should be kept opl
of the senate; but the methods useo
to secure his election ought to make il
Impossible for him to occupy seat ir
the highest legislative body in this
country. The charges against Mr.
Clark are not mere idle gossip. They
are based on cold, hard facts that art
known from one end Of Montana tc
the other; facts. that can be substan
tiated, I believe by competent tes
timODy."
