A NEW IDEA ON TAXA,
TON,

Dele fOurCne Bee: Below Qp-
pears communication from one of
the leading taxpayers of the county,
which advances an idea we believe
TO be worthy of consideration.
Our readers can elaborate the prop
osition for themselves and, we be-
lieve, can discern the many, good
points involved. The letter is as
follows:
SNoMA, So. OAK,
August $, 1903.
! was one of tho taxpayers who
received notice OF raise in assess
ment. Now it occurred to me
that this whole system is wrong;
that the Office of county assessor
should be abolished.
Now if the county commission.
ers are qualified to to criticise, re-
wise the assessors's work, and sit
as board Of equalization, they
would be just the men to list the
property in the first place in their
respective districts. When the
commissioners meet at the county
seat they are governed altogether
by hearsay evidence, but if they
listed property themselves, they
would get the valuation nearly cor
rect.
! never wrote an article for a
newspaper in my lite, but if l were
q scholar ! would write one on this
subject.
II this letter should coincide with
your views / would like TO see an
article in abe Bee from your own
pen.
What prompted this letter is this:
We place. aar cattle in sum-
mer herd at f9o count. We have
ssme cattle loose on the range, but
do not know that we will gather
them. The commissioners raised
the number to $50. Whether this
latter number was their estimate,
or they acted on the information Of
some lneddler, do not know.

THE OWLS ENEMIES.
With All Their Precautions They
Receive no Mercy From Birds.
From Notes and Queries

From Notes and Queries.
AS they (owis) are incapable Of sup
porting the light of the day, or, at
least, of then seeing and readily avoid
ing their danger, they shut themselves
up during the day in some obscure
retreat. If they be seen out of these
retreats in the daytime they may be
considered as having lost their way, as
having by some accident been thrown
into the midst of their enemies and
surrounded with danger. In this dis
tress they are obliged to take shelter in
the first tree or hedge that offers till
the returning darkness once more sup
plies them with a better plan of the
country. But it too often happens that,
with all their precaution to conceal
themselves, they are spied out by other
birds and are sure to receive no mercy.
The blackbird, the thrush, the jay the
bunting and the redbreast all come in
file and employ their little arts of in
suit and abuse. The smallest, the feeb-
lest and the most contemplate of this
unfortunate birds enemies are then the
first to injure and torment him. They
increase their cries and turbulence
round him, flap him with their wings
and are ready to show their courage to
he great, as they are sensible that their
danger is but small.
The unfortunate owl, not knowing
where to attack or whence to fly, pa
tiently sits and suffers all their insults.
Astonished and dizzy, he only replies
to their mockeries by awkward and
ridiculous gestures, by turning his head
and rolling his eyes with an air of
stupidity. "a 1t sometimes happens
s*% that the little birds pursue their
insults with the same imprudent zeal
with which the owl pursued his de-
predations-they hunt him the whole
day, but when night returns he makes
his pursuers pay dear for their former
sports; nor is man always an I'M
concerned spectator. The bird catch
ers have got an art of counterfeiting
the cry of the owl exactly, and, hav-
ing before lined QimedO the branches
of a hedge, they sit unseen and give the
call. At this all the little birds flock to
the place where they expect to find
their well-known enemy, but instead
of finding their stupid antagonist they
are stuck fast to the hedge themselves.
This sport must be put into practice
an hour before nightfall in order to
succeed. for If 1t is put off till later
those birds which but few minutes
sooner came to provoke their enemy
will then fly from him with as much
terror as they just before showed in
science.

HAYES FOUND GUILTY
OF WIFE'S MURDER.
He Received the Jury's Verdict
without Apparent Emotion.

he Received the Jury's Verdict
Without Apparent Emotion.
Columbia. S. c., Nov. 14.-One of the
most interesting cases in the history
of Oconee county was brought to a
close to-day at Walhalla when the jury,
after being out five hours, found Hoyt
l.. Hayes guilty of the murder of his
young wife. Hayes received the YER
dict without the slightest emotion.
Six months ago Mrs. Hayes died sud
denly at her home near Walhalla, and
the remains were inferred in a nearby
country churchyard. Mrs. Hayes par
ents were ont satisfied with the cir
cumstances surrounding her death,
and few days after her burial the
body was disinterred, and a post NOR
tenn examination held. At the exam
1nation evidences of foul play We're dis
covered, and suspicion pointed to Hoyt
Hayes, as being responsible for the
death of his wife, which resulted in a
warrant being sworn out for his arrest
by Mrs. Hayes parents, charging him
with the murder.
The arrest of Hayes created quite a
sensation in Oconee county, as it was
generally supposed that his home life
was entirely happy. The couple had
been married less than year.
Hayes is 25 years old, and his wife
was 21. They had no children.
