The county board of equalization
held its regular monthly meeting yes
terday.
In the recent sketch of the late ]. B.
f.. Riddle, the statement was made
that the deceased lived in North Car
olina. This statement was erroneous.
Mr.. Riddle lived in and was a citizen
of York county.
Yesterday was the regular day for
the meeting of the county pension
board. but owing to the absence of
Mcssrs. Joseph f. Wallace and w. S.
WilkerSon. no business could be trans
acted. and it was necessary to adjourn
until another date.
Quite a number of farmers who
count of salesday, said that they saw
people blowing along the roads; but
generally they were of opinion that the
ground was still a little too wet. But
with the weather continuing as yes
terday, everybody will soon be busy.
Notes of the First National Bank of
Sharon of the denomination of five dol
lars, were considerably in evidence In
Yorkville yesterday, having been scat
tered about by people who were here
from the western side of the county.
Yesterday, of course, was not the first
day on which these notes began to ap-
pear: but they were numerous enough
Yesterday to cause general remarks.
The cotton exchange news from both
New York and New Orleans, indicates
that there is to be another furry OF
activity in the market during the next
few weeks. The story is that Hayne,
Brown and Patten are together for an
other bull movement, and although 1t
is a fact that there has been an ad-
vance of from $1.j0 to $500 bale dur
ing the past week, and there Is a no
ticeable forming of lines of battle be-
tween the bulls and bears. There is
big talk on both sides. The bulls are
giving out their usual dope about FAM
ing the effects of curtailment. Both
sides are making lots Of fuss; but the
outside public. which has not yet for
gotten how badly it was bitten during
the winter. has not yet shown much
signs of interest. That there Is to be
Il big furry, however, based on all the
usual arguments so applicable to ex-
listing conditions, there can be very lit
tie doubt.

Licensing Newspapers"

The BeltOn Times of last week con-
tained the following:
Yes, we have to pay a license to
run Il newspaper in BeltOn. In some
towns the city feels that the ncwspa-
per is such a good thing for the town
that no license is charged
The Greenwood Journal very aptly
adds:
We'll said. The facts are, we do
not SEE how any town can accomplish
a great deal unless it has Il good. live
newspaper. and about the best thing
for town that wants to grow is to
strengthen the hands of its newspaper

All of which means that newspapers
like To- be deadhcadcd whenever they
get the opportunity. And that is where
they make Il serious mistake. News
papers Will be more respected and,
therefore. more iniucntal-and prob

Mr.. FINLEY ON THE PosToFFIcE.

That the problem of putting the
| like basis is really comparatively
simple one Is the contention Of the
Hon. D. E. Finley in one of the most
Illuminating discussions Of postal con-
| ditions which has yet come to our at
tention. Mr.. Finley spoke on this
subject in congress last Monday, and
that his remarks were followed with
interest is evidenced by the volleys Of
throughout the period he was address,
ing the house of representatives
Briefly Mr.. Finley holds that the rail-
way mail pay is too small on short
line railroads, and entirely too large on
the great trunk-line railroads. He con-
tends that mail equipment, postoffice
supplies, and so forth, when in freight
able lots, which, he argues, should be
construed as 300 pounds and upwards,
and that all magazines and periodicals
when in freightable lots, should be
withdrawn from the mails during the
weighing period and thereafter ship
ped by freight. This Of itself, he says,
will amount to a saving Of more than
s12O00,0O0 the year. He declines to
agree to the proposition that the loss
on second-class mail is $64,000,000 the
year, as claimed, and shows that the
actual cost Of handling daily newspa-
pers Is between one and two cents the
pound, for transportation, and that the
separation service is much less than
that on first-class mail. He argues,
and cites the proof, that 'the president
of the United States and the postmaster
general by executive order can correct
more than fOur-fifths Of the complaints
that have been made He denies that
rural delivery cost the government
last year more than s15,000,000 at the
outside, and against this amount he
contrasts tine time saved to the 20,000,-
900 rural delivery patrons served on
the Al 200 routes now in operation, and
the increased value Of farm lands
which the rural delivery has brought
about. The former he estimates at
SAC, ,0O0,O 900 annually, and the latter at
the sum Of one thousand million dol
lars-an astounding increase, as he
very we'll says. Mr.. Finley goes on to
show that third-cl mail cost the
government $3.299,522.12 last year, free
congressional mail S51S,3S5.45, and free
department mail s5,219, 9,661.65. He ar
CUES also that the rural carriers are
entitled to additional compensation,
and that railway mail clerks should be
given an expense allowance when they
are away from home.
Mr.. Finley is member of the con-
gressional committee on postoffice and
post roads. His speech in the house Of
representatives on Monday not only
showed mis- thorough familiarity with
the matters affecting these departments
but its whole tenor was such as to bear
renewed testimony to the ability and
the fair -mindedness Of the gentleman

lima district in congress.-News and

off the real offense with which the de-
fendant is charged, and running in the
direction of techncalities that really
have nothing to do with the actual
offense under consideration. he Is
pretty close to an acquittal or mis-
trial. either of which Is much better
than conviction from the defendants s
standpoint.
1T Is my observation that most ju-
rorS are pretty honest. Even if the
individual juror is not as honest as
he might be, nine cases out Of ten, he
wants to be with those he knows are
trying to do right. But sometimes 1t
happens that men who are actually
bad-recklessly criminal-get on juries.
and | have known such men to side
with criminals out of pure sympathy
and fellow feeling"
