see what your readers know about
the great question Of taxation and

which hope many Of your readers,

If a five per cent tax is laid on the

of groceries rise or fall?
If five per cent tax is laid on
the 100000 vacant lots in Chicago
will the price of lots rise or fall?

AN 'UNFORTUNATE SITUATION

On last Saturday evening on South
ern train Number - which leaves
Union for Jonesville about $3.50 o'clock,
an episode occurred which is a dis
grace to civilized people. A noisy,
drunken fellow, without shame, and in
loud language, was cursing and using
obscene language. In the car were
iadies-Union county women-whose
ears were made to burn with shame
because of the foul language. The
thing kept up until a passenger, a
brother of one of the ladies, took the
matter up and demanded that the
cursing cease. A serious miX-up was
narrowly averted.
On the Saturday preceding, as the
Carolina Special was going from Un-
ion to Jonesville, the day coaches were
packed. In the crowd were at least
a dozen men who were so much under
the influence of whiskey that they
had forgotten how to be well behaved.
The scene in the smoking compart-
ment was revolving in the extreme.
One man in there was drunk-and
sick; the rest may be imagined The
truth is, the conditions reveled on the
afternoon and evening trains going
west are incredible. One could hardly
believe it possible in civilized com
munity. Yet, it is fact; as you may
witness for yourself, if you care t.
go to the trouble to make the trip. 1t
is of little use to say that the con-
ductor should handle the situation.
We do not believe he could do so un-
less he had dozen deputies armed
with guns. We do not presume to
say who is responsible for this law
less condition, nor do we presume to
say how it is to be stopped. We
merely reveal the facts, facts that are
a shame to civilized community.
1t is a. very common occurrence to see
man take out bottle of whiskey
and deliberately drink therefrom and
pass it around to other fellow-pas-
sengers seated nearby. This is in it
self a violation of the law. But if this
were all, it might be tolerated. 1t
is the drunken, overbearing, brutal and
vulgar ruffiian that produces situa-
ton which is intolerable. Somebody
is going to come to grief if the condi-
tion is allowed to continue.

We respectfully suggest that the
Chamber of Commerce investigate the
feasibility of bringing to the attention
of the Southern Railway authorities
matter of erecting gates at the
issenger station here. 1t would be a
fine thing if it could be done. The
present condition of crowding to get
off and on the cars here is a great
inconvenience to the public. The erec-
tion of good fence and of gates
would cost no great sum. Such an
arrangement would prove of great
benefit to the public and to the rail-
road, as well.

We again call attention to the
argent need for eliminating some of
the dangerous railway crossings be-
tween Union and Jonesville and Union
and Carlisle. Already the public has
fallen asleep since it's last rude awak-
ening when our good friend, Mr.. R. NJ.
Fincher came so near to losing his life.
Must we forget and forget again and
again? We respectfully urge our coun-
ty authorities to take up the matter
with the railroad and see what can be
done. An insistent and udgent de-
mand from the thoughtful people of
the county should be heard. The peo-
pie anxiOusly await the carrying out
of this needed reform.
