EQUALIZATION Of Taxes.
COLUMBIA, 8. c., October 5, 1906

COLUMBIA, 8. c., October 5, 1905.
Mr. A. W. Knight, Editor 'Bamberg
Herald, Bamberg, s. C.-My Dear Sir: !
indeed appreciate your encouraging edi.
torial in reference to my effort to equal.
ize property. Your criticism of tax
dodgers and the inequality of returns in
Bamberg county can easily be applied to
the State as whole. The shameless in.
equalities existing in the values fixed
upon all classes of property for taxation
is enough to cause uneasiness in the
minds of all law abiding citizens. Com
mon honesty demands that something be
done to correct this growing evil. I fear,
though, that unless the tax payers Of the
State assist in demanding reform, the
stumbling block of politics and the large
class of tax dodgers and others who are
profting by the virtual setting aside of
the tax laws by those officers whose sworn
duty it is to enforce, will be an up hill
business. Many have advised me to
drop the issue, as nothing will come Of
it. Ihave adopted Davy Crockett's mot
to in this fight: "Be sure you are right
and then 90 ahead" I know my posi-
ton is honest and right and believe that
the non-enforcement or setting aside Of
the assessment laws of the State is tend
ing towards debauching the honest man.
hood of the State In favor of the almighty
dollar, for, in self defense, the law abid-
ing citizen must set aside the assessment
oath or sign it with mental reservation,
for citizen to comply&with the oath and
assess his property at its "true value" as
required by law, would simply be rob
berry or confscation of his property.
With kind regards.
Yours very truly,
A. W. JONES'

Not Members Of Voorhees, School

Not Members OF voorhees, School
Editor The Bamberg Herald-Dear Sir:
1t has been reported by some parties that
the boys recently charged with stealing
railroad property and committing other
depredations in and about Denmark had
once been members of the VOORHEES,
school. For the information of the pub
lie we wish to say that not one of these
boys has ever been member OF this
school. Two of them may, possibly, have
attended the county school, taught by our
teachers, for short time.
This is the tenth year of the schools
work, and from the beginning it has
been its aim to teach, both by precept
and example, only those things that tend
to make good industrious citizens.
Respectfully,
ELIZABETH E. WRIGHT MENAFEE,
Principal.

An inquest was held at Sumter Tues
day over the body of j. E. Gaillard, who
was shot at Manning by circus negro
named Smalls. The testimony was plain
that Smalls did the shooting, and that
he was aided and abetted by some white
men with the show. George Spivens,
white trainmaster of the circus, was held
by the jury as accessory to the crime:
The negro and white man will be tried
in Sumter, as court convenes in that
county October 22nd, and there Is no
court in Clarendon county until January.

Protecting Her Honor.

A woman is never 80 old but what she
thinks she must be very; careful about
protecting her honor. They are telling
an amusing story about widow in Stock
ton. The widow is nearly seventy years
old. She is famous as housekeeper,
but is very poor. In town near Stock
ton there lives well.to-do man who is
past seventy, and he told Stockton man
that he had plenty Of money and if he
knew a good woman who was first-class.
housekeeper, he would be willing to
marry her. The Stockton man recon-
mended the Stockton widow. The veil.
to-do man called on the widow, who
knew nothing about the scheme to pro-
vide husband and home for her old
age. When the old man called, the
widows brother was at the house. After
the elderly lover had stayed awhile, real
izing that he was old and time was
precious, he wanted to propose, so he
said to the widow, Wont you send your
brother from the room. I want to say
something to you" The widow immedi-
ately thought of her honor and fell upon
the poor old man and nearly beat him to
death. A doctor had to be called to at
tend to his wounds. When the old man
recovered he said: 81 am glad that old
girl did not give me a chance to propose"
When the widow heard the mans inten-
tions were honorable, she was heart
broken, but it is too late. The old man
cannot forgive her.-Atchison Globe.

A sarcastic lawyer, during the trial of
case, made use of the expression, "Cast
not your pearls before swine" Subse-
quently, as he arose to make the argu-
ment, the judge facetiously remarked,
"Be careful, Mr.. S-not to cast your
pearls before swine"
"Don't be alarmed, maud; I am about
to address the jury, not the court" was
the reply of the barrister.

NO REWARD OFFERED.
John R. BelIinser, ESQ.,, Protests Against Re-
ward for Kinsey Boys.

At the recent term of court here
Solicitor James E. Davis had bench
warrants issued for the arrest of
Joseph, Charley and Junior Kinsey,
charged with the mufder of Otis
Davis, a negro, at Ehrhardt, a few
months ago. These young men came
to town to surrender the night of the
killing, but the coroner's jury rem
dered verdict that Davis came to
his death at the hands Of unknown
parties, so as no Indictment was made
out against them, they returned
home. They were here at the court
ready for trial in case an indictment
was handed out, but nothing was
done and they again went about
their business. The grand jury
brought up the matter and at the
close of the criminal business bench
warrants for the young men were
issued.
These warrants have not been
served, and it was generally rumored
that the young men had left the
county to avoid imprisonment while
the matter of bond was being at
tended to.
Last week, hearing that the sheriff
had written the governor requesting
that a warrant be issued for their
arrest, John R. Bellinger, Esq,
wrote the governor as follows: b..
81 understand that the sheriff of
this county has requested you to
offer a reward for the apprehension
of Joseph Kinsey, Charles Kinsey
and Junior Kinsey, charged with
killing one Otis Davis. I am repre-
senting these parties in connection
with Mr.. B. W. Miley, and I beg
that you do not offer the reward, as
it is entirely unnecessary.
81 am now preparing the papers
on which to move for bail and have
assured the sheriff that the young
men will surrender to him as soon as
these papers are ready, and that this
will not be later than next Saturday,
October 6.
1T has been impossible for US to
prepare the papers any earlier and
these young men are gentlemen and
we did not wish them to stay in jail
longer than was necessary. They
have been ready to surrender ever
since the day of the killing, and came
to Bamberg for that purpose, but
the jury of inquest did not charge
them, and it was only at court here,
September 20, that the solicitor had
a bench warrant issued for them,
and we were too busy in court and
subsequently to fix the papers until
now. There is not the least reason
for going to the expense of offering
a reward, and / assure you that the
parties will surrender themselves
this week"
The reward was not offered, and
the young men came in and surren-
dered to the sheriff last Thursday.
They are now confined at the Jail,
and application for bond will be
heard today wednesday, in New
berry before Chief Justice j. Y.
Pope.
(Just as we went to press word
was received that Judge Pope had
granted them bail in the sum of
$1,000 and they were released from
custody. G. Frank Bamberg and
Jones A. Williams are the bondsmen.

State News Boiled Down for Quick Reading
Punssnt Paragraphs About Men
and Happenings.

J. B. Ellis, young white man, was
killed in Sumter last Friday night oy
jumping or falling from a passenger train
shortly after it left the depot. He was a
native of North Carolina, but had been
working in Atlanta, and had gone to
Sumter on a visit to his brother.
James Cromley, travelling representa-
: tive of whiskey house, was arrested IN
Spartanburg last week on the charge OF
soliciting orders for whiskey in violation
of the dispensary law. This is the first
arrest of whiskey salesmen, and it is pro-
posed to make test of this feature OF
the law.
Lawson D. Melton, Esq, of Columbia
has resigned as United States district at
torney, as his law business is such that
he cannot hold the position and attend to
his practice. District Attorney Ernest
f. Cochran, of Anderson, controls The
appointment, but it is likely that the
office Will De aDOIlSneQ.
4. L. M. Hubbard, formerly music teacher
at the Greenville Female College, has en-
tered suit against the board of trustees
and President E. c. James for $4,000
damages. He claims that in the bulletin
issued by the college, language was used
in referring to the music department
3 which reflected upon him and injured
his reputation. We have read the Ian
guage complained Of, and the professor
certainly has hard road to travel If he
is ever to collect damages.
Geo. W. Murray, the negro ex-con'
gressman of Sumter county, is said to be
in Africa. Murray was. tried and found
guilty OF forgery about two years ago,
and, pending an appeal to the State Su-
preme Court, was released on bond. The
decision of the court was against him,
but he skipped out before he could be
arrested. His sentence was one year in
the penitentiary. Murray was a con-
pressmsn from that district just after
1890, the only negro congressman from
this State since 1876.
Mr.. ]. e. Gaillard was shos at Manning
last Friday night by a negro named
Henry Smalls, who was connected with
the circus of Cole Brothers. Two white
men with Mr.. Gaillard vera also pain
fully wounded. Mr.. Gaillard died at the
hospital in Sumter on Sunday. he was
shot in the stomach, his intestines being
perforated in thirteen different places.
: The negro was arrested at Bishopville
and carried to Columbia for safe keeping.
It seems that Mr.. Gaillard had been fox
hunting and passed by the depot where
the circus train was preparing to leave.
He saw the negro and thinking it was his
servant, called to him and told him to
hurry. The negro cursed him and pulled
q pistol and commenced to shoot when
Gaillard started toward him. Two other
white men started for the negro when
Gaillard was shot down, but the negro
shot and wounded both of them and es-
capped between the cars, the train pulling
ont few minutes later. He was cap
tured at Bishopville the next night.

The Thunder Mountain country, Mr.
Douglas thinks, is one of the greatest
gold districts in the West and will
eventually be made a great producer,
it is about the toughest country to be
found anywhere in which to get in and
operate a mine, and this rough physical
condition has greatly retarded the great
districts development
Mr.. Douglas, whose permanent place
Of residence is Philadelphia. with his
wife has been in the city several days,

beauty, but a great business center as
