PRIVILEGE TAX FALLS BEHIND
Collections This Year Will Probably
Be $4,000 Less Than Amount
Realized Last Year.

The State.
The privilege tax derived from the
fertilizer industry by the state will
probably fall $4,000 short Of the
amount collected last year. The
amount collected to date is $l45,9l9.-
II. Up to the same date last year the
collections amounted to $157, ,37l.66.
more than $1,000 in excess Of this

While the privilege tax is collected
by the state treasurer. not one cent
of it goes into the general fund but
all is applied to the maintenance Of
Clemson college. While the collec-
tions will undoubtedly fall short Of
those Of last wear no fears are enter
tainpa lnat Clemson will suffer on

In 1851 i7ineapples were rare IN
San Francisco. One day in that year
one of the passengers who had cross
ed the isthmus of Darien before leav-
ing Panama purchased from one OF
the natives of that place dozen pine
apples for a quarter of dollar, and
when ne landed in San Francisco ne
had six left. He was carrying these
from the landing place at the foot OF
Vallejo street, when there were boat
stems at the end Of a twenty foot
wharf, which new arrivals approach
ed bv Whitehall boats from the
steamers that in those days anchored
in the stream 800 yards from shore.
The man was accosted suddenly by a
stranger who asked him what he
wanted "for that lot Of pineapples. "
"They are not for sale. -
"But | want then,' said the Cali
fornian.
"I'll sell you three.' said the new
arrival. who on the voyage had heard
that San Francisco people were llber-
al buyers, and he added. "but they III
cost YOU S. each.''
"Take 'em.' was the curt reply
ard the fruit charged owners, the
resident passing over a Spanish CON
known then as gold "ounce. y worth

THINKS DEMOCRATS CAN WIN.
Congressman Aiken also Believes
that Bryan Will be Nominee.

The News AID Courier printed last
Friday the views Of Representatives
Ellerbe, Finley, johnson, Lever and
Legare. The following statement In
answer to the same questions has just
been received from Congressman
Wyatt Aiken Of Abbeville, Mr.. Aiken
stating that he was absent from Alb
beville when the request for his
views reached his home:
l. "Who is your choice for Demo-
cratic nominee for President and why
do you favor him?'
My belief is that Bryan will be
nominated. A southern man would
not stand as good chance Of election
as Parker did. One Of the Johnsons
might be worth considering. -,
2. "What should be the paramount
issue or issues Of the next cam
paign?" -.
The paramount issue Of the next
campaign should be and must be to
lower the tariff. The trusts are fost~
cred and protected by the robber tariff
| which, of course, excludes foreign
competition, and the president, II
pretending to fight the trusts without
lowering the tariff, knows better than
anybody else in this country that he
is not sincere. but is only making a
great noise to keep himself in the
centre of the 'spot light" No man
in America. today IS more responsible
for the failure to make an honest and
real fight on he trusts than Presl-
dent Roosevelt. He is responsible for,
the panic on Wall street.
3. ":Do you believe in Government
ownership Of railroads?"
I do not believe in government
ownership Of railroads, but I do be-
lieve in strict governmental control
of railroads, expre ess companies, sleep
ing car companies and telegraph and
telep.ly:le systems. \,
! i. '"Can the Democratic party
win?
II strong, red-not a2d aggressive
fight is made On a tariff reform plat
form the Democratic party Will
stand a good fighting chance to win.

Lcckiaw and Hydrophobia.

DR.. VIM. H. Thomson. IN Everybody 5
Magazine.
The fearful tetanus. or lockJaw,
was aseribed in all the books When l
was a student to puncture or tlrta-
ticn cf a nerve. and both hands and
feet were sometimes cut off to stop
the irritation going up the nerve to
the spine. Now we know: that it IS
due to fatal poison in the blood,
which is produced by bacillus lodg-
ed in a pu1ctured wound made by
scme stick. nail Oh pistol wad on which
this evil bacillus happened to be. 1t
is a soil bacillus and swarms in rich
garden earth, particularly where
guano or fish manure is used. All
wounds, therefore, into which earth
has entered should be promptly eau
terized.
Hydrophobia also presents another
illustration Of what modern science
can do. A recent remarkable dlscov-
erv bv DR.. Ira Van Giesen, of the Lab
oratory Of the New York Board OF
Health, makes it possible now to de-
termine in a few minutes what used
to take weeks to decide. AS dogs
are so generally shot if they bite peo-
ole in the streets, it then becomes an
anxious question whether the dog was
mad or not. Formerly. to settle this
question. rabbits were inoculated with
the saliva or blood Of the suspected
dog. to see if it gave them the dis
ease. But it might be necessary to
wait a month to be sure on TINS point.
But DR.. Van Giasen has discovered
that = slice of mad dogs brain
shows an appearance in the brain cells
never found except in rabies. If this
is found the serum treatment initiat-
ed hv the illustrious Pasteur SHOULD
be commenced at once, because it
very rarely fails to prevent the de-
vo}yv of this dreadful ralady If
begun in time.

MAY BE MADE A JUDGE.
Mr.. John G. Capers Will Probably
Be Given Appointment by
President.
News and Courier.

News and Courier.
Washington, November l3.-lt
would not be great surprise here
were President Roosevelt to name
John G. CaperS as the successor OF
Judge Louis E. MeComas, Of the
Court of Appeals Of the District OF
Columbia, who died few days ago.
When Mr.. Capers returned to
Washington this morning from New
York. where he had been on import
ant business, he learned for the first
time that his name was being widely
used il connection with the vacancy.
He stated that he was not an appIl-
cant for that Office, and did not eN-
pect to be; that he preferred to re-
turn to the practice Of law in Wash
ineton as soon as he was relieved OF
the duties of the office Of commission
er Of internal revenue.
Notwithstanding this statement 1t
is believed the president has him IN
mind in connectiop with the vacancy,
and the appointment may go to him
unless a fight should be made by
members of the Washington bar, some
of whom think that an older resi-
Gent and one more closely identified
with tho District generally should re-
ceive the appointment.
It is understood that at the time
Mr.. Capers was appointed to the Office
Of commissioner of internal revenue
he was given to understand by the
president that the bestowing> OF the
commissionership upon him was part
" because Of the fact that he had not
had square deal when relieved OF
the duties Of district attorney IN
South Carolina. Coming directly after
his throw-down by the department OF
;astiee, it appeared to be a complete
vindiG alton for Mr.. Capers. II the
judgeship goes to him it will be still
further evidence Of the fact that the
president desires to right whatever
wrong was inflicted upon him when
he was dislodged from the district
attorneys office, and in recognition
of his services to the Republican par
tv as the national committeeman from
South Carolina.

Shall These Orphans Have Thanks
giving?

DR.. Jacobs Of the Thronwell Or
phanaee. Clinton, S. c., writes:
"a little child alone in the world,
its bright black eyes filled with tears,
came to me held by the hand Of a
good woman. Only five years old,
fatherless. motnerless, she finds her.
self after long ride on the cars, un-
der the care of friendly traveller, at
the door of the Orphanage. But poor
little thing, she knows nothing OF
where she is, does not even know the
place from which she came; she has
her name written on slip of paper
as an introduction to the kind friends
who are hereafter to care for her. She
brings little package under her
arms. it is her all Of worldly goods.
SO it was. only a few weeks ago, but
now now different. Tears are dried.
She is. opening her bright eyes to the
lessons that come to her daily. Failing
into the routine of chapel and school
and dinner and play, she is waking
up. her young soul is speaking
through lips and fingers and feet aid
dimpled cheek.
"Someole now loves the little girl.
Someone puts ner to sleep at night
after her lips have whispered "Our
Father" She is finding a home. she
is finding herself, she will some day
find God.''
This little child was welcomed to
the loving care Of the Thornwell Or.
pnanage. Every one of the '25O chill
dren in the school Of that institution
have had more or less Of the same
experience. It is true that between
them and grim necessity, there is to-
day a strong wall of defence. But the
people who love God and little chill
Aren are that wall. The Orphanage is
under Presbyterian control but it is
for all orphans. It turns none away
because Of it's fathers faith. There
are 15S orphans from South Carolina
under its care, 81 from Georgia, %
from Florida and the rest from ten
other Southern states. Not one has a
living father.

TIGHT MONEY AND COTTON.
Are Bear Spectators Response
BILE for Present Financial
Situation. -:
News and Courier.

News and Courier.
Sumter, November ia travel
ing man, who mas lately beea in dlf-
ferent parts Of this state and OF
North Carolina, in conversation
here today concerning the money Sit
nation, said he had heard Of several
Instances Tin one case getting it from
the buyer himself) where the large,
export business had sent their repres~
entatives into tais territory, giving
them instructions to buy the cotton
and furnishing them with government
currency to pay cash for same.
Assuming that this report is found
ed on facts, this condition of affairs
NAV be but one OF the legitimate exi-
gencies of trade brought about by the
present stringency Of the money mar
ket; and yet it seems somewhat
strange that if the money is to be
had at all it is not furnished to their
representatives by the export houses
through the usual channels OF the
banks. -.
While there may be nothing to 1t,
still the reports may be taken as con-
frmatory evidence Of the existence OF
a real foundation for suspicion that
has entered the minds Of not a few
That the present condition of the
money market is part and parcel OF a
movement on the part OF cotton spe-
culators to bear the market tor that
staple.
# such a conjecture should prove
to be true, the confidence in the south
in the New York banks would be
rudely shaken, if not disrupted, and
the representatives in this territory
Of the concerns thus taking adVanl-
tage Of the situation to buy on the
enforced bear market would IN all
