M. Crelghton's Statement.

The Christian Appeal, of which
@. w. Creighton, of Greenwood, is
the editor, has the following TO say
regarding his recent trial and expul-
sion from the Methodist conference
"It now appears by the report of
the committee that constitutional
Methodism does not exist in South
Carolina. We have sue
ceeded in establishing the existence
of the most powerful ecclesiastical
combination ever known to Method
ism. We went up against that COM
bination, we made a manly, honest
fight; the prosecution packed one
committee with blood-kin of the ac-
cusers and their sympathizers, de-
stroyed the records, and they could
not be had. The bishop would not
rule on the question of law involved
in the case and thus hung up every
legal question until the next meeting
of the General Conference.
awe are not vindictive, we enter
tain no malice, we have taken up a
fight for liberty, justice, freedom of
speech and constitutional Method
ism in South Carolina. In such a
fight we knew the danger to be
great; we ran great risk, and we
accept what has befallen us as our
part of the price which every true
man must pay who stands for con-
viction, liberty, right, justice, free
dom of speech and constitutional
Methodism.
awe are still Methodist and will
continue to remain loyal and true to
her policy, doctrines and constitu-
tion. We will now return to the
ministry and preach as layman when.
over we have the opportunity.
"The Christian Appeal will be
published as long as our health per-
mits and the public support it,"

Ti!!msn's Lecture Cancelled.

Bellaire, Ohio, Dec. 11.-Senator
Tillman's engagement to speak here
last night was cancelled because he
would not promise to abstain from
swearing during his address. The
first M. E. church had engaged Till
man. After his Chicago speech, the
trustees wrote, asking him to promise
not to swear. Tillman answered
that he knew nothing about Bellaire
and the town would have to take it's
chances on him just as he would on
Bellaire. Then the date was can
celled.

Death Ends Shame.

Winthrop, Mass, Dec. 13.-For-
mer Governor Franklin j. Moses, of
South Carolina, was found dead in a
boarding house al Winthrop Beach
Tuesday, his death having been
caused By ssphyxiation. He was 60
years of age and had resided in Win
throp for several years. He had a
varied career, and although once
wealthy, it is understood he died
comparatively poor. He was Gov
ernor of South Carolina in 1872.

Senator Latlmer Kicks on the Income Tax.

Columbia, Dec. 10.-Comptroller Gene
raj Jones has received letter from Au-
ditor Burriss, of Anderson county, say
ing that Senator Latimer, In spite of re-
peated invitations, refuses TO pay any in
come tax.
Auditor Burriss incloses letter that
he received from Senator Latimer. Mr..
Latimer takes the position that the State
cannot tax his salary as United States
Senator, and says that he and Senator
Tillman have consulted lawyers, who
have advised them to this effect. Mr..
Latimer also says that his income, ex-
elusive of his salary as Senator, does not
amount to S2,5O0 year.
So far the only South Carolina Con.
gressmen who have made returns for the
income tax are: Messrs. Aiken and John
son, though both may have considerable
incomes outside of their salaries
The late Attorney General Youmans
decided, in the case of District Attorney
Capers, that Federal Office holders are
not liable to the State income tax on
their salaries from the Federal Govern
ment Assistant Attorney General Ray
has also made similar decision in re.
gard to the congressman.
The idea seems to be that the State
cannot tax the incomes paid by the Fede-
raj Government to its office holders, and
on the other hand the Federal Govern.
ment cannot tax the incomes of State
officers. though each may tax the income
of it's own officials.
There are other good lawyers, however,
who hold to different opinion, and say
the State can tax the incomes of all citi-
zens of the State regardless of the source
of the income.
1t is likely that test case will be
made to settle the matter, probably with
the case of Senator Latimer.

HON. /. /. werner EXPLAINS
ABOUT THINGS coScsRNiSe IocoNEe
COUNTY.

Richland, December 17.--Editors
Courier: owe the people of this
county an explanation as to disa-
greement with j. r.. Earle in regard
to certain bills that accused him
of passing in the Senate, which he
denied.
| will simply give the record and
say no more, leaving the people to
decide who was right.
In 1905 Mr.. Earle passed bill in
the Senate subjecting all the lands
on Conneross creek and Little river
to condemnation proceedings. See
Senate Journal 1905, Senate bill AID.
The same month of the same year
you will find that in the House l
amended Mr.. Earle's bill by striking
out "Conneross creek" and inserting
cat or near J. d. Isbell's," and by
striking out "Little river" and in
serting cat High Falls" See House
Journal 1905, page co., These books
/ have left at j. W. Shelor's office
for all to see who wish to.
Now you must know that the sim
pie meaning of Mr.. Earle's bills, as he
passed them il the Senate and as
they came to the House is, that every
foot of Io,I ~, ronoo-o,, ,~ool, ~, \
every foot of land on Little river
could have been condemned and sold
from the owners, whether they
wished to sell or not. You may
consult any lawyer as to this status.
In 1906 Mr.. Earle came back and
passed bill through the Senate
naming other streams and asking for
additional powers. See Senate Jour-
nal 1906, page 105. r. 7. Jaynes
was in Columbia about this time and
offered some amendments to the bill.
/ had not then seen the bill. AS
soon as l read it told Mr.. Jaynes
that could not let such bill pass
the House. He was representing
the Oconee Water, Light and Power
Company, and asked me if ] would
then be willing to run line across
the county from near Jarratt's
bridge place to High Falls and tap
the upper part of the county. l
could not consent to that and Mr..
Jaynes said no more about it. After
this Mr.. Earle came to my room and
wanted to amend the bill. l told
him that the only way / meant to
amend the bill was by killing it,
Then he asked II. j. Mauldin, OF
Pickens, to table the bill and with
draw it from the House rather than
have it killed. See House Journal
1905, page 625.
This is a statement of the matter
briefly, as the Senate Journals and
House Journals referred to above
will show.

MUCH PROGRESS REPORTED
ON THE iSTHMIAN CANAL

Washington, d. c., Jan. S.-The let
ter of President Roosevelt transmit
ting to congress the annual report OF
the Isthmian canal commission and
of the Panama Canal company, to
gether with Taft's letter transmitting
the same, said that the work on the
Isthmus was being Admirably done
and that great progress had been
made, especially during the last nine
months. All the work so far accom-
plished has been carefully done and
with the utmost expedition. What
has been accomplished gives good rea
son to believe that the canal will be
dug in a shorter time than was antici
pated, and at an expenditure within
the amount estimated.
The president said that he had in
yestigated the charges of jobbery
immortality. inefficiency, etc, obtain
ing >on the isthmus. In every case
he found that the accusations were
without foundation.

representing that the French minister

Europe to urge reforms In Morocco.
The sultan, Dec. 81, received in audi
