There is no better illustration of rrciu-
dice i'll man than was manifested in the
Til!mnn administration in reference TO
corporations aud capital i'm South Caro-
lima. The trend of the dealings AZ d
laws have been to rather oppose cnpital
and corporations instead Of encouraging.
OF course corporations should pay their
Just pro rata Of taxes, but they should
be invited to establish and operate their
business so that VIC would get the bcne-
fetal results. The laws should lie as
favorable to corporations as is equitable
and consistent. IT seems to us that it
was unwisc in our Legislation to rcronl
the law cXcmping cotton mills ten years
from taxation. Corporations are what
built up the north and will take tho
same to build up the sonth, therefore wo
should hold out an inviting hand to cor.
poratiOns to invest their money in South
Carolina.
Because Of the sentiment Of the TIL
man administration there is one fourth
! less cotton mills in South Carolina than
wOui.i have been if our government had
been inviting in its attitude towards cap
itaI.
Among candidates for and mcmbcrs of
our legislature, there is too much SYM
pathy for the laborng poor man and not
enough for capital. They are after the
poor man S vote. They forget that cani.
