In Memory of Elder Samuel p. Strib-
ling.
Samuel P. Stribllng, elder of the
Fair Play Presbyterian church, was
born February II, 1S49, near Rich
land, S. c., and died near Fair Play,
S. c., February 21, 1910. During al
most his entire life he was a faithful
soldier Of the Lord Jesus Christ. He
was man Of sterling character and
strong convictions, and ever loyal to
his Saviour and church.
We would express our appreciation
of his faithfulness and efficiency in
furthering the interests of the king
dom Of Jesus Christ through the
church. We shall miss him from our
councils, and We feel that the church
has sustained great loss. However,
our temporal loss Is his eternal gain.
Therefore, be it resolved:
1. That we with perfect submis-
sion bow TO the unerrlng will of
God in this dispensation Of His Prov
idence.
2. That for the entire congrega-
ton we, the Session of this church,
extend our sincere sympathy to the
bereaved family and assure them of
an interest in our prayers at the
Throne of Grace for the comforting
presence aid power of the Holy
Spirit.
:, 3. That this memorial be recorded

Inc OASIS Oh all wealth. is land,
but this cannot be true unless
mankind takes advantage Of ma
ture by properly outstanding the
soil 80 that he may acquire that
wealth. And we all know that
money is the moving factor
which turns the whees of the
gigantic industries OF our count.
ry; and that society is so consti.
tuted that we must pay some
toll in the nature of taxes to
help defray the expenses of the
government that guides our f.
nancial destiny. These taxes OF
assessments are paid annually
pro rata among the citizens OF
rather the real and personal pro-
perty owners OF the counties,
states or nation as its share OF
the burden Of a lawful society.
The expenses Of government
amount to ninety million dollars
annually 1t would have to pay by
its people directly or indirectly.
Therefore, If we have (for illus
tration) ninety million people
and the property owners all
have an equal amount of taxa
ble property, they would be
compelled to pay a tax Of $l.0O
per capita. But now assume,
intead, that you have the same
conditions but only one million
people, your tax would be ninety
dollars per head in order to meet
the expense of good government.
The same things hold good in
the state and county in which
you live, as our government is
so constituted that we are divid-
ed into various districts, and in
each locality they carry on their
own affairs for the best interests
Of its people. Gillian County
has its corp of county officers to
pay each year for the services
they render to the people they
represent, and this money must
be raised by a levy of tax upon
the property owned by its peo-
pie.
Now then, we will assume,
for the sake of argument and
illustration, that we have county
containing ten thousand acres OF
land all of which is owned by
ten farmers equally; and that
the annual county expense is
$40, 600 which must be paid by
tax payers of this county. Hav-
ing found the number of acres
it contains and the amount OF
tax that must be raised, we as
sess the land at $1,000 per acre
and find that it amounts to
$lO0, 100000. Then we levy a
tax of ten mills on every acre of
land and VIE have the $40, 900. 90
to meet the expenses of the gov
ernment in the county. Under
this assumed state of facts each
farmer would be obliged to pay
a tax of $1,OO0.00 on the 1000
acres he owns or $1.00 per acre.
Again we will assume, that in
stead of ten men and their fam
lilies residing on these 10, 900 ac-
res, we have one family for each
333t acres or thirty families on
10, 900 acres, and that each one
of these families erected i'm
provements in the form Of good
buildings, etc, to the value of
SIS, 10000. This would give us
twenty times $1,000. 90 or an ad-
ditional $1OO, 600. 90 to help de-
fray the expenses of our county,
and reduce the assessments to
one half or five mills to the dol
lar, making the tax only $500. 90
per capita. These additional
