FINE SHOWING.
Statistics Brought Out at Board
of Equalization Meeting.
THE FIGURES SHOW
That Property Generally in Every Count!

" Increased in Farns as Well
as the Couatry. Auder.
son Claims BestLand.

At the meeting Of the State Board
of EQUALIZATION in Columbia last week
al of the county auditors but i've had
fled abstracts Of real estate returns IN
their respective counties. The audi
tors who have not sent in their abb
strac!s have good reasons, it is said,
and Mr.. W. 81. Dorrill Of Georgetown,
who is late this time, Is said to be be
hind for the first time in his incum-
bency Of 30 years. He is sick now, bTt
will be reelected without opposition.
The other counties which have not re-
sponded are: Edgeheld, Pickens, Un-
ion and Spartanburg.
A omparison of the figures for the
respective counties is interesting. Ev-
cry county in the State shows a gain
in property valuation in four years
with the exception of Fairfield, where
there is a decided loss-and Fairfield
has not ceded any of her lands to other
counties. Anderson seems to think
that her land is the best in the State
by the way people pay taxes thereon
and York county comes second. The
boasted rich lands Of Marlboro and
O.angeburg do not show up so remark
ably on the list.
The following tables are necessarily
incomplete on account OF the fact that
the FIVE counties have not sent in alb
stracts, but the statements therein
contained are of no less interest. Fol
lowing are the figures showing the as
sessment Of property outside Of cities
and towns.

RYJ SETS BLOOD MONEY.
The Widow OF Missionary Takes the
Right View.


Right View.
In the Persia correspondence in tie
portion OF the Red Book on foreign
:elstions which was made public by
5he state department. recently Is con.
:ained q strong protest addressed by
Mrs. Mary Schaufier Labaree former
iy OF Urumia. Persia, to American
Minister Richmond Pearson, at Te'
ieran, against the ezaction by the
United States government OF an In
1emnity OF $50, ,00C for the murder Of
aer husband, Rev. Benjamin ". Lab.
sree, missionary, killed on Mount
Ararat by religious fanatics.
Whils believing that when an
American citizen has bsen murdered
because of the criminal laWness OF a
!oreign government those dependent
N him for support should receive a
suitable indemnity, Mrs. Lsbaree
made the following declaration:
Il believe that the great mission
cause to which my husband and ded-
icated our lives, and which has b5-
come even dearer to me because OF
he terrible sacrifice | have been call
ID upon to make for it, believe that
this may receive serious injury If my
children and I accept an indemnity
tor this murder.
1.-THE matter wou' d not be under
,tood by the great mass Of people in
ahjs district who would inevitably
know Of it, as the Persian idea OF
blood money is 80 different from our
sivilized understanding OF an indem
lity. Thus serious and blasting In
jury might bs done to the mission
cause for which we have already Sac
rifced so much that I prefer to waive
ny rights as az American citizen
tather than to see this cause suffer-"
Sac further protested against the
sizs OF the Indemnity, saying that,
while her husbands life could not be
measured in value by the standards
prevailing In that country, which TX
ed the life Of Christian at 90 aomar
(!ollers) and the maximum value OF
Life Of Moslem at 1000 tomeans, yet
the disproportion between the sun de.
manded in this case with that OF sums
paid In similar circumstances BY OH
sr governments was too great.
Mrs. Labaree asked that the strong
sst measures be taken by the United
States government to see II any ln-
demnity was in the end e1actsd, 1t
should not be extorted by the Persian
governm ent from the innt cent people
Of the province where the murder oc.
Cured.
In spite OF her protest, $50, 900 Was
actually paid to her by Persia before
the thirty days period named in The
ultimatum of the United States had
expired. This sum was three times
greater than the maximum ever be-
fore paid By the Persian government
for the murder OF private person
Minister Pearson obtained q promise
that the money should not be Levied
under any guise OF special tax IRON
the inksbitants OF the province
