DID NOT PROPOSE TO PAY FOR
SLAVES.


At the annual memorial meeting of
Lee Camp 10 Richmond last night, Hon.
John Goode, president Of The coustitu-
tionsl convention was the principal
speaker. He is one of the four surviv-
ors Of the convention, that met there in
February, 1861. and the only Virginian
living who was a member Of the C0U-
tedeiate Congress.
Mr. Goode took occasion to correct
what be co0ceives 10 be two errors in
recent contributions to the history Of
the OWL war. He stated thst he bad it
from the lips of the Confederate com.
missIoners who went to Hampton Roads
TO confer with President LiDcOln that
the only thing that Lincoln would agree
10 was that the Coutederates "should
90 home aud take of their uniforms"
He denied in emphatic terms that
Lincoln had offered TO psy for the lib.
GRAFTON of the slaves. Ooly a very
short time ago the Rev; Dr.. Greer,
celebrated Presbyterian minister
Of Dsnville. KY, and Conied-
crate veteran, delivered lecture
in which be ssid Lincoln bad offered 10
pay for the slaves. DR.. Green said he
learned this from Judge Campbell, one
of tbe Confederate commissioners. Mr..
Goode said Alexander 81. Stephens,
Judge Campbell, and L. M. 7. Hunter
all told him that Lincoln offered no
terms.
MIr. Goode said he wanted also to
correct an error 10 receut contribution
to war history by Charles Francis
Adams. 10 which be mskes It appear
that Gen. Lee favored snrrandering his
army before Il reached Appomattox,
and that President DAVIS was respOnsi-
aie iJE Lees piaus not be,ug Carried
out. MIR. @ lote said be was sent for
on March IS. 1861, by President Davis
and Grn. Lso for conference.
Gen. Lee tod Of the condition Of his
army, and ssked If the Virginia people
would stand ano,ber draft upon them
for forspe and provisions. Mr.. Goode
Conferred with bis associates, and the
result was be Il fJrmed Gen. Lee that
the last crust OF bread would be divided
with the army. Gen. Lee said not
word about snrreDderiug.

TWO-THIRDS TAX PAID.
Unprecedented Record in County
Treasurer's Office.

County Treasurer H. M. Philips said
today that the payment of the first half
taxes for 1901 has been the largest in
the history of Shawnee county.
On the first half payment a total of
$535, 000 in round numbers, has been
paid out of total tax of 900, which
is about IA per cent of the total taxes
for the year and which leaves but
$194, 900 to be paid on the second half
payments. The usual per cent which
is paid on the first half is IS. Mr.. Phil
fps said this morning: This record
breaker in the payment of first half
taxes shows that the people of the
county have the money with which to
pay their taxes and many of them are
paying the total tax in order to take
advantage of the rebate of 21s per cent.
Those who make no payment are as
sessed another per cent penalty, so
the paying of the total tax at the time
of the payment of the first half makes
a saving, we might say, of IA per cent
Taxes can be paid up to June 20 but
there is no rebate to be had now and
after June 20 another penalty of per
cent is assessed and the land upon
which the taxes have not been paid
goes on the list for sale in September"
