Righteous Judgem cNt.

The Supreme Court OF the State has sustain
ed the constitutionality Of the law which ex-
empts certain municipal, school. or State
bonds from taxation. The Court could not
have done otherwise without disregardirg
equity, common sense, and good rules Of hon.
esty.
AS a matter of fact, whether expressed in
the law, or not expressed. the State has no
equity or moral right 10 tax It's " BONDS
or the bonds of any body polite In the State,
To tax such notes or bonds, is to enable the
debtor copflscate or to repudiate the debt
to the extent OF the taxation. :
The non-taxability ofsuch bonds is one OF
the main reasons That the people composing
the body. polite may borrow money at u low
rate of Interest.
II the State, or the county, or the town, or
the township goes into the markets and
borrows money, they come down from their
high estate and deal rs one man deals with
another in the borrowing and lending OF
money. These corporations then. when In
possession Of the money Of the citizen have
no more moral or equitable right to use the
power an machinery OF the government 10
tax or to repudiate q per cent of the citizens
khea "oN'N NHN
| right to tax or to repudiate a part of his W
Indebtedness.
The State does not tax its own houses or
real estate, nor does 1t tax the property OF
any body polite IN the Stale.
To tax such bocds is TO place our own ci.i-
zens at a disadvantage In buying them.
The citizen of another State when relieved
from all taxation can pay a higher price for
them. Wheuiso sold our people like the pco-
pie o fIreland become in a sense the bonds
men OF allen capitalists to alien holders of
bonds who never pay . cent Of taxes to the
State.
Where is the honesty, the equity or the
moral right Of the State In discriminating
against Its W citizens? Except from the
principle that right makes right a body
polite has no more right to tax lis creditors
than has a citizen TO repudiate a portion OF
his cebt.

Despotism.

We see that the Mayor of one Of the towns
in South Carolina has fined q citizen for
refusing to be vaccinated. The Circuit Judge
has endorsed, approved or affirmed the
Mayors decree to take from the citizen his
none because!of. his.refusal to comply With
the requirements OF q cruel, unjust and un
warranted. usurpation Of his rights.
Smallpox Is q preventable disease which no
one need have, II he does not wish to have
1t.
In the army, where q different condition
must govern, 1t is right to exercise the
despotic power over enlisted men. But we
can conceive. OF no greater Injustice to the
citizen than to require him TO be vaccinated
In the first place, the vaccination prevent
the citizen from the pleasure OF having the
desired disease, and then that other citizen
who is looking for the disease is deprived Of
the opportunity to get 1t.
We are getting to be too compulsory" in
this country. Compulsory education
compulsory vaccination, ;" Compulsory pay.
ment Of railroad fare" Compulsory absti'
hence from liquor" and compulsory pay
ment Of debts'' Is taking away nearly all OF
the citizens rights. Whittier are we drift

The hog in bis fever producing stye is

EZtentionS Of Final Limit on Return Trip,
There are Various Ways.

There have been suggested various ways
orreducing the cotton crop. While the re-
duction of acreage. the burning OF the staple,
inc Introduction Of The boil weevil have each
had their advocates we believe nobody seems
to have thought OF storing cotton Oh the
erounc under trees. Our testimony would
be that, from observation and not from ex.
oerienb be, the storing OF cotton under a tree
is almost rs good as burning 1t. II the bales
are carefully turned after the rains In the
Spring when the warm weather sets In, q
large per cent OF the cotton will be ruined by
turning blue. When people are careless
however, In negiecting TO turn the bales, the
effect OF the clements is not 80 e6icacious
Where ali sides are expected to proceed equal
" with the rottlng process. the bales must be
turned.
In case the plan of storing cotton under
trees should be adopted TO reduce The crop
then the warehouses should be boycotted
A warehouse protects the cotton perfectly,
and that pr~otectionidoes not reduce the crop
One great difficulty about the warehouses
lie, that the owners OF cotton may store II
there where it is insured. With the ware
house receipt money can be had from the
banks. The farmer can then go about DIE
brsiness. The banks must then scuffie VILE
he cotton market.
II farmers really mean to destroy the cot
ton crop now CD hand, the plan OF storing
under a tree Is good enough. But II IT IL
meant TO act sensibly, as a solvent man
should, then the cotton ought TO be IN
warehouse.

Monuments.

The great need of this county Is monu.
ments. AS Abbeville is not very actively
engaged in the manufacturing enterprises
just now, our people should have an or.
poriunity of p~erpetuating In brass and gran
lite the heroic deeds OF our forefathers. In
the building OF these monuments tue people
OF the city should not be selfish. The coun-
try people as we'll as the city people are ell
titled to share in the work and honor OF
erecting monuments 10 the heroic dead, and
no survivor OF the ~streggle that shook this
o. tinent should be denied the opportunity
OF contributing to the marble shaft that Is to
record his deeds OF valor.
If, however, 1t should.be deemed advisable
to adopt the suggestion of a gallant confed-
crate soldier to build O memorial hall" 1t
would better answer every purpose, and be
more useful than a shaft OF marble and
granite. The suggestion by "a Con federate
SOLDIER In these columns last week seems
eminently wise and proper. The Memorial
Hall would be a pride to the living, and the
fair proportions Of It's walls would as we'll
proclaim the noble record.

ROBERT HUTCHINSON.
A Well Known and Much Beloved
E. Young Man is Dead.

Robert Hutchison, a we'll known Railroad
Conductor, died February 20, 1905, at Hamlet,
n. c., aged IS years.
MIR. Hutchinson nae long been O suHerer
from lung trouble For this reason he went
TO Mexico, several years ago, where ne WIS
engaged on one of the roads as long as ne WAS
able to perform the duties required OF q con-
ductor. About Il year ago he returned 10 DIS
native county, where he stopped for out a
single NIGHT on his way to his old home In
Hamlet, N. C.. When he was in Abbeviile ne
was the recipient Of attention by many OF
his old friends, and he was the most cheerIul
of them all. He recognized his true conai-
ton and looked 10 the end without fear or
regret for the impending event which would
soon close his eyes to the world forever.
While he felt that be had made the most of
bis thirty five years, he wac thankful for Inc
good things that had come his way and was
willing 10 die.
Mr., Hatchis on was the oldest OF Thomas
Hutchison's children, and he was the last 10
lay down LIES burdens. His brothers and
his sisters are with us no more. Ihelr
mother and father died long ago. When Mr..
Robert Hutchison's mother died she Tell
several little children. The oldest daughter
soon married, but lived for only q short
time. His infant sister Mary was adopted as
the daughter OF Mr.. and Mrs. Britt Of
this county. She died in early womanhood'
In childhood Adger and Edward Hutchinson
were taken care Of by Miss Margaret Ann
CIa,worlhy. When they arrived at Man.
| hoods estate they went out into the world to
| fight the battles Of life. One Of the boys soon
returned to Nj ss Clatworthy, n died In the
care of the good woman who had brought
him up. The whereabouts Of the other
brother is unknown to us.
Robert Hutchison was a member Of various
organizations among the railroad people, and
he was treated by them with great Kindness
When he returned from Mexico a member Of
one Of the fraternal orders came home Witt
| him TO see that he lacked no needed attention
| along the route. He wae a good friend OF Mr.
II. L.. bearing Of The Seaboard Air Line road
+ WHO is well known in Abb Vile, and with bis
lates, breath he invoked q blessing upon the
! friend whom he loved so well.
AND 40 It is that In twenty years all the
! family has passed TO the great beyond, and,
except in the hearts ofthose who knew them
and loved them, no trace or remembrance Of
them Is TO be found. Our work Is as insub-
stgntiul rs the fabric Of q dream, and our
lives are little more han the passing
shadows.

The New Warehouses;.

We nave heard nothing more OF proposed
new warehouses, and 1t may be that no talk
along this will materialize, but 1t seems TO
us that If the farmers ard the banks expect
to control the price OF cotton, suitable houses
must be built for storing 1t.
In the past the farmers have too often gone
off into a squad by themselves, and for these
reasons nave not succeeded as well as they
otherwise might have done.
Things aredifferent now. The bankers and
the farmers are acting as a unit, and II seems
TO us that by a faithful concert ofaction, good
prices may be secured for cotton.
When the crops are short the price goes up.
In the war, when little cotton was raised
prices went out of sight.
After the war Gotten brought as high as
forty cents pound. The high price stimu-
lated Increase o. the crop, and down went
the price.
With plenty Of warehouse room and plenty
of money in the banks, the price may be
c1ntolled.

The Death Roll.

II you have any doubt that the ranks Of the
Confederate soldiers are being thinned, you
have only to look at the death notices IL the
newspapers.
It seems that nearly every copy OF every
newspaper records the death one or more Of
the veterans OF the Confederate struggle
While a lonely sentinel will be left here and
there. only a few more reunions will be held
In the course OF q short time their numbers
will be 30 reduced that the attendance on
reunions willtnot be large enough.to warrant
these annual meetings.
Even now the ranks are ibeing supple
mented by the presence Of beautiful young
sponsors.
AS q rule the old soldiers are feeble In
health and poor in this worlds goods, but
their hearts are full Of loving tenderness and
sweet memories of the old associations at 6
time when mems souls were tried.
