The GreenVille Tragedy.
Timely Lessons From the Horri-
bic Affair of Last Week.

Anderson Daily Mail.
The killing of Policeman Tuck
er in Greenville by Ellis Sanders
was a sickening tragedy. There
was no occasion for it. ,,
The man who ventures to lee
ture an individual or community
receives no thanks for his trouble,
but there are some lessons which
may be drawn from this affair
and which ought to be pointed
out.
Sanders was a white man, and
had established relations of init
macy with negro woman. As
is always the case, both the man
and the woman sank to the lowest
levels. The woman got drunk
and was arrested and looked up
by the police. This incensed
Sanders, and he mot the police
man on the street and shot and
killed him.
Now, the relations of Sanders
with the negro woman must have
been known before the woman's s
arrest. Such things cannot be
kept secret. And knowing it,
the officers of the law, aided and
supported by the citizens, should
have broken 1t up long ago.
This could have been done. If it
had been done Sanders would
have become different man, he
would have gotten over his infat-
uation for the woman, and then
if the woman had been arrested
or gotten into other trouble he
would not have interfered.
Relations such as existed be
tween Sanders and the woman al
ways leads to trouble. The thine
to do in every community is to
break up those relations withou
delay just as soon as it is found
that they exist.

Fitz William Mckay Gets Verdict
for $4,000.
The State, goth inst.

The State, goth inst.
The jury in young Fltz William
McKay's suit for $4,000 against
tho Seahoard for the loss of leg,
yesterday afternoon brought in
verdict for $3.50 for the plain
tiff after less than five minutes
deliberation. This is the heaviest y
personal injury damage verdict
ever returned in the Richland
court. The next heaviest was for
S12, 500, which was awarded Will
liam McCabe against the Southern
railway for the loss of a leg below
the knee and loss of part of
hand.
The defense in the Mckay case
Immediately upon the announce
mont of the verdict gave notice of
Il motion for q new trial.
The stiffness of the verdict yes
day caused members of the bar to
comment upon the custom juries
have fallen into of giving more
damages for personal injuries
which do not result in death than
for those causing death. A recent
instance of light verdict for death
was that for SIS, 900 against Guild
q Co., the Columbia sewer con.
tractors, into one of whose bitches
MIR. Robert Pringle fell, dying
from injuries received in the fall.
This Gaze is now pending on ap-
peal in the fedela al circuit court of
iappeals. Fifty thousand dollars
was the amount sued for. In the
McCabe case only $4,000 was
sued for.
M'KAY DAMAGES REDUCED BY HALF
The State, 21st inst.
Judge Gary disposed of mo.
tion for new trial in the Mckay
damage suit case yesterday by
reducing the verdict one half, TO
S12, 500, and giving the plaintiff
20 days in which to decide wheth-
or he will accept tins disposition
of the case or stand new trial.
The plaintiffs attorneys had not
decided yesterday whether thH
would accept or not. Either or
both sides may appeal whether
there is acceptance or not.

Equalization Boards Increase As

Columbia Record, Goth inst.

Columbia Record, Goth inst.
Several county boards of equal
ization have made report to :he
comptroller general, and the mat,
ter OF the returns of building and
loan associations will be of some
Interest. This has been a subject
of discussion for II year or more
and it was debated al some length
during the last legislature but
without result. The returns so
far received indicate that the
boards of equalization almost
without exception have been rails
ing the returns us made by these
associations, but this does not
mean that they are singled out as
a special class Of property so
treated. 1t shows that the boards
are carrying out the ruling of the
comptroller general more strictly
as to the manner Of taxation of
these associations. That rule is
that they shall be taxed on basis
OF the valua of the shares of non
borrowing shareholders. That
seems to be proposition that can
be mathematically determined,
but the fact is that the boards find
that the rule is not generally ad-
herea tn and whea it IS applied
an iuctease in the assessment
usually results. In one county
for instance an association re,
turned for taxation IS, ,293, but
applying the rule the board raised
it TO $;20,52O.

WISDOM FROM DEPEW
Chunks of Felicitous Philosophy and
Gems of Thought

The Rockefeller Bible class dinner
must have been a very stimulating
function. Senator Depew was there,
and was in his most felicitous and his
sprightliest mood. Among the other
gems of thought contributed by this
good man. he took occasion to be
thankful that he began life as the
attorney for the richest man in the
world"-a very good thing to be
thankful for, we may mildly assume.
The senator explained his gratitude
on the ground that experience taught
me the futility of ever striving to ac-
quire great fortune, for no man is
truly rich when there is another richer
than he"
Mr. Depew at least has enough on
hand to provide his winter coal and
buy an occasional sirloin roast so he
can afford to be measurably philosoph-
ical, and under all the existing condi-
tons. as we'll understood in the Bible
class, his remark could not have been
taken as disrespectful to the father
of the revered teacher. Indeed. it was
more a subtle compliment to the Rock
efeller contingent, who seem to control
good share of this worlds possess
sions, and it was gentle reminder to
the young men that they always have
a discouraging example and restraining
force at hand. Why try for wealth
with the Rockefeller family constantly
in view?
