.. We regret to rei1il t:ldi the
county auditor Is ccn-iter:.rly >hind
with his work. and hal this has
impeded the progres: Of collecting
taxes very much. His books should
have been in the hands of the county
treasurer by the 18th of Octohcr,
which would have enabled the
treasurer to have met his appoint
ments in the different sections of the
comfy. AS it is, the tax collections
been delayed at least forty days.
We hope that the coua.y auditors
will always have the books ready
for the treasurer by the time required
by law. We hope that the delay in
this case is due to some unavoidable
cause. We would recommend that
the said office of county auditor be
provided with suitable cases in which
to keep the tax duplicates, as these
are important records of the county.
We are surprised to find the assess
ments of vacant lots in town OF
Kingatree far too low as compared
with the assessments in the other
incorporated towns i'll the county.
In many instances lots which the
owners value at from $4,000 to
$4,000 are assessed at rom $1,000
to $500. We regard this as unfair,
being against the interest Of the
town of Kingstree and the county,
and We respectfully recommend that
the attention of the board of equaliza-
ton be called to this matter, and
that steps be taken to have this
property assessed at fair valuation.
We notice that there are numerous
cases where the property is returned
at simply nominal values. We do
mean to charge any one with tax
dodging, but we think that all
property should be returned at Il fair
valuation.
We are glad to report that since
the court house has been repaired
and enlarged, the coroner has an
office in the court ho"&e. We eyauIin-
ed his office and fuund his books
neatly kept, and al records pertain
ing thereto properly recorded. as by
law required. His Office has not
been furnished vet but this will he
done on demand upon tie county
supervisor.

The English Navy.

In the earliest times of the British
navy there was practically no distinc-
ton between the merchantmen and the
man-Of-war In the rare times Of peace
mer-of-w traded as merchantmen.
while merchantmen always went arm
ed Thus in time OF war the trader be-
came the warship and vice versa.
From the time Of the conquest and
probably earlier down to the days OF
Elizabeth this was the ordinary prac-
tice Elizabeth hired out ships Of the
navy for all sorts Of purposes, from
piracy to slave trading, taking her
share of the profits when the venture
was successful and disclaiming all re-
sponsibility when it wasn't.
Henry Ill, who may be described as
the originator Of the navy as special
fighting force, hired out the ships spe-
cially built for the navy in times Of
peace and even allowed them to be
taken away from their appointed sta
tons provided that the hirers deposited
due security for the return of the ships
with their tackle and all equipment in
a proper state Of efficiency. The prac
tice ceased after the repUlse of the
Spanish armada, wien the fighting
ship, as such, became distinct from the
trader.-LOndon Globe.

Meanings OF the Word "StOve.'

The word ''stove," as applied to q
heater for q room, seems to be of about
the same age as the article to which the
name is now applied, for while the
word as a namc had an existence in
early English it was used in different
sense.
Both Lord Bacon and Woodward
used it as referring to house or room
artifcially warmed and particularly a
dollhouse for plants. Bacon also used
the word as a verb in the way of keep
ing warm in a house Or room, as ''to
stove orange trees and myrtles," to
quote from his writings. Pepys used
the verb in q nautical sense, as heating
for the purpose Of making pliable, as
''stove bolt ropes
But all these definitions are obsolete
now, such disuse dating from the time
when DR.. Franklin made his discover
les and applications. The French word
''etuve," it may be added, describes a
dollhouse or bathing room, and hence is
parallel in meaning with the early Eng
liSh word

IFIT is the right thing to do to club
a man who is anxious to work, to pre-
vent him from doing so, then, by parity
of reasoning, it should be also right to
club the man who refuses to work, be-
cause the latter is, perhaps, the worse
case of the two This is the position
held by the union and non-union coal
strikers. And yet, what an absurd con-
dition of things such a proposition really
is. One will not work himself, and
stands, club in hand, ready to beat even
unto death any needy man who may de-
sire to earn bread for his family.
