rHE .NEWS AND HEKALD. ' WIXXSBORO,^. 0. wednesday, december 33. :: 188c. jfi tt. i. U^FXOLTjS } > EonoHb. TT. i. McDOSALD. ) The Legislature has appropriated $20,000 for the maintenance- of the ' Sonth Carolina Military Academy. The South Carolina delegation, with the exception of Col. D. Wyatt Aikei*, - 1 ' ' *--- Ml 1 I.!. wtio is aetamea ai noun; uy ui-iic;uui, i are at their posts in Washington 1V>i* ! the work of the present session of j Congress. ?o? -o The second trial of M^Quade, one j of the boodle New York aldermen, ! resulted in his conviction. The two j trials cost the city $70,000, and at this ; rate it will take one-half a million to ; convict the others charged. There is a well-grounded suspicion j in Richmond that Cluverius, the con- : demned murderer, has made a confes- j 8ion of the crime, but that for various ! reasons it will net be made public until the day of his execution. AT.a recent meeting of the stock- , holders of the Richmond & Danville i Railroad, Col. A. S. Buford resigned i the presidency of the road and Mr. i Alfred Sully, of New York, was j unanimously elected president. Henry Geokge's labor candidate i for mavor of Boston received about i i one-fifth as many votes as tht Repub-: lican, and one-seventh as many as the Democratic candidate. O'Brien, Derr.was elected bv a handsome ! majority. A bill has been introduced in Con-! gress to call a halt in foreign imnii- j ? O j gration. The bill says there is 110 j necessity for allowing foreigners to ! ^ vote after one year's residence, and ! suggests making naturalization and j suffrage uniform. I Fkom the tone of exchanges it seems that the reduction of the salary of the county school commissioners is universally disapproved. The reason is that competent men cannot be secured to perform the duties at sncii a salary. So it seems to us. Hampton recently had an election on the question of -'wet and dry", ; which resulted in favor of license. It has been dry for several years past, naminally, so they are going to try the high license system. Licenses will be granted at the same as in Spartanburg?$1,000. The South Carolina Annual Conference of the M. E. Church, South, met in Spartanburg on Wednesday last. The Conference is composed of one hundred and ninety-four clerical and forty lay delegates. It is one of the largest religious bodies which has met in our State for some time. j|^ Belva A. Lockwood, ex-Presidential candidate, is now posing before K tfee couatryias a politknl pvopb&t.-She-: m predicts that the following Presidential tickets will be in the field in 1888: Democrat, Grover Cleveland and Sam' nelJ. Randall; Republican, James G. Blaine and John Sherman; Labor, Henry George and Terence V. Powderly; Prohibition, Frances WillarU and John P. St. John. In spite of much opposition the dot; tax law has been passed in the Senate. A tax of one dollar is levied upon each dog, good, bad or indifferent. This will in all probability relieve the State of many worthless dogs, and I will also save many sheep no doubt, but in order to have successful sheep raising in any country, there must be more than a dog law. The animal is so timid that we must have shepherds for them, if we ever expect to accomplish anything in wool raising. The dog law is, however, a splendid impetus for this industrv. The Constitutional Convention. The bill introduced by Mr. Haskell in the House of Representatives providing for the calling of a constitutional convention has been indefinitely postponed. 0:i Friday it was taken up for consideration and was passed to its third reading, but at the night session a motion was made by Mr. Douglass to reconsider the previous vote, which was carried by a small majority. Mr. Douglass, it is said, made one of the ablest speeches ot the session m opposition io the bill, and it was mainly through his influence that the bill was virtually killed. We are glad I to see that a majority of the House did uot think a constitutional conven lion necessary. 'Tis true that our Constitution is a relic of Republican days, but it was fashioned after a similar document in one of our most pro-' gressive States, and meets every neces- j bity. Besides the cost of a constifu- j tional convention it would be attended ; with a good deal of danger, and nearly j every object sought t?? be obtained by j a convention can be accomplished by statute without any of the attending dangers, and at a much less cost. The vote was very close, and the very fact that the question is being agitated may lead to its calling at no distant dav. The Military Appropriation. The bill providing lor appropriations for the fiscal year beginning November 1, 1886, came up for con sideration in the House on Thursday. | All went well until it came t-..' the section providing $14,000 ior the militia of the State, when a motion was made by Mr. Wilson, of York, to strike out. the section. By a very close vote the section was stricken out, but later a motion was made to reconsider tho vote striking out the section, which was carried by a slight majority, and j an appropriation of $13,000 voted for i the militia. We regret lo see the Legislature hesitate to make an appro- i priation for the militia. It appea-s! niggardly. Of course we have never j ma ???aaaMM ? NIB had any need for our volunteer troops,! but there is no telling- when they might be called into service, and it is : but due to them that the appropriation should be made. Every year we know i they have been called out in different j States to preserve peace and' order, j and we ksow not how soon their ser- ; vices might he needed in our State, j AVe are glad to know that the majority j saw the error of their way in first i striking out the appropriation and j subsequently voted the appropriation, I though it is reducod a thousand dol- i lars. Ths Columbia t'anai. The bill providing for the further! development of the Columbia Canal j was defeated in the House on Wednes- j day by a very decided vote. Already j thousands of dollars have been spent j by the State in this work. We arc j inclined to question the .visdom of; ever commencing the project, but since j it has been done, and over one hun-! dred thousand dollars spent, we are ! sure thai it was not wisdom to discontinue it. When completed it was certain to bring in some revenue to the State, which from the very nature of the source from which it would come, could not be estimated. It might be great or small, but since the experiment had been commenced it should be completed. As it stands at present the State is bound to loose the tnonev j already expended without the shadow j of a hope of' getting any return for it j unless the work is carried on by t lie j citv" oi Columbia. We arc glad to - * i notice that the city council of Col tun-j bia has taken steps to continue the i work, and propose to advance seven j hundred dollars per month as an j appropriation, provided the State wiil i furnish tiie convict labor and at the I next session transfer the property to | the city, for which the city agrees lo furnish a reasonable supply of water power for the penitentiary. It is to hoped that some such arrangements can be made and the work completed according to the original plan. We are afraid there is a tendency to overdo the work of reform in the State, and which will result harmfully to its interests unless checked. We are glad to see that the Fuirfiaid delegation were among the minority of this question. Morrison Ajcain Defeated. i 0:i Saturday last an effort was made by Air. Morrison, the free-trade champion, and his friend?, in the National House of Representatives, to have his tariff bill considered. By a vote of 15-i to 149 the House refused to consider the bill. It is useless to state that its refusal was due to the efforts ! of the Republicans and a few cowardly j Democrats under the leadership 01 : Sam Randall. The result shows that ' Mr. Morrison has been outgeneraled by Mr. Randall, as a number of Democrats were absent without pairs and some were simply absent temporarily, while Randall commanded his forces with admirable skill and some day9 beforehand pronounced what the vote would be exactly. A number of Raul dal'ites deserted him 011 the recent hw*f?, ?TCVILV rstrong^ message of President Cleveland. The Democratic party has repeatedly promised to reduce the tariff to a basis for revenue only, and slill they have refused to grant the people that relief which has been promised. It is due to Ihe great majority of the party lo say that a strenuous effort was made, but by the action of a small minority of so-called Democrats the will of the majority has been defeated. The district which Mr. Randall represents is strongly protective in its sentiment, but a man of Mr. Randall's capacity should rise higher on the plane of | statesmanship than to use his influence I simply for the good of a small portion of the country. He is outspokenly in favor of some reform, but he not only fNA?. ir\ o ?L"inor fn l^lUOV/<? IV/ ov/iom-oi c* Wtu JWttnig ?v some reduction of the burden, when upon its consideration he could amend in any way which he thought proper, but he refuses to introduce a bill himself, fashioned after his own judgment. It is high time that he was .shown np in his true light. If he is not a Democrat (and his actions go to prove that he is not) he should be kicked out of the party without quarter. Year by year the Government is robbing its citizens of millions of dollars wl ich it caunot use itself, and is placing a burden upon them which is not only unreasonable, but most unjust. The fault is with the people. The Democratic party is :i free-trade party, or a party for reform, and the constituents all over the country should sei to it that only such men are sent to rcpre sent them as will represent the party especially on such important questions as the tariff and others. It is to be hoped that by the ne*t Congress a sufficient number of converts will have been made to carry some bill for^ relief in spite of the Republicans and their traitorous allies. The Agricultural Iturcan. The bill :<_< provide for a reorganization of the Agricultural Department | came up tor consideration in the House j of Representatives on Monday la?-t- ! The bill is a substitute for the one in- j traduced early Jin the session embody-i ing ibe views of the Fanners' Conven-; tion, and passed without much opposi-1 tion. It repeals Sections 1, 2 and 3 or j the Act of 1879 creating the depart- j ment of agriculture ?and substitutes the following sections: Section 1. The South Carolina board ot agriculture shall consist of ten persons, who shall be agriculturists, and I be elected by the Legislature for the i term of two years, and until their successors are elected and qualified, a majority of whom shall constitute a quorum, and vacancies arising from any cause shall be filled by the Legislature for the unexpired term. The i .11 r *i._ ; ? UUL11U ollui 1 IliUUt 1UL l?JU UcillSaCllOU UI business as often as they may deem expedient, but at least twice in each year. They shail receive no salary, bat shall be allowed the sum of three dollars per diem, and live cents per : miie actually lraveled while engaged in the duties of the board, not exceeding twenty days in any one year. The first election of the board shall be held r.? Mttna n ??MP? immediately utter the approval of this Act. Sec. 2. There shall be held in the ! City of Columbia, in the month of November in each year, an annual i meeting of the South Carolina board-.* of agriculture, together with aconven-'; tion of delegates, consisting of live"': from each county organization or i society, five from the State Grange | and five from the State Agricultural S > \f ,^.1 i ? i ~ i ?i <- .. ! anu ouuiiun , wnu iui ; the time being, be members of the | South Carolina board of agriculture, j !or ihe purposes of deliberation and j consultation as to the wants, prospects ' and conditions of the agricultural in- 1 terest throughout the State, but they ; shall receive no compensation. [ Sec. ."i. Immediately after the elec- . tion of the board they shall organize, ' by the election of one of their number ; president, and at the expiration of the i term of office of the present eomniis- j sioner of agriculture, and every two } years thereafter tiiey shall elect a ] commissioner of agriculture, who j shall be an agriculturist. He shall be j paid a salary of twenty-one hundred j dollars per annum, payable monthly, i and shall give bond to the State, with I sureties conditioned for the faithful i discharge of the duties of his office, i in the sum of five thousand dollars, to : be approved and tiled in like manner [ as the bonds of State officers. He ; shall be empowered to employ an S efficient clerk, whose salary shall be ! twelve hundred dollars per annum, i payable monthly. The said board shall also organize and encourage farm- j ers' Jubs or associations, and hold i farmers' institutes wherever practicable. Several amendments were offered providing lor a reduction or tne salary of both the commissioner of agriculture and his clerk, but were promptly defeated. This is a victory for the farmers, as it was tnaiulv through their organized efforts that the bill was presented and passed. TRIBUTES TO COL. RIOX. {from the Camden Journal.) \ In all the walks of life he was true to duty and to princip.e. His high and commanding intellect, bis analytical mind, his logical force and power, his clear and quick conception of all matters brought before him, made him a giant among his fellow-men, and everywhere he was looked up to as miP tn hr> honored and resneeted. In our judgment he was the ablest lawyer in the State?perhaps in our entire Southern States?and his great love and affection for his profession, and the zeal with which he applied himself, made him master of all which came within his grasp. Col. Rion was not a demonstrative man. In fact, his exterior was cold, but in his bosom there was a heart full of sympathy, full of noble, generous impulses. He had no feeling of oppression in his noble soul, but his ear was ever ready to hear, and his hand to help. South Carolina loses one of her noblest and best citizens, and as the bier was carried to its last resting place on Tuesday last thousands of hearts everywhere mourned his loss and moistened the cneeks with tears of grief and sorrow. An honest, true man is God's noblest work, and of Col. Rion we can thus truly speak. Can our feeble pen say more tor us? (From tht News and Courier, December IS.) j Whof an nnvicrhf mrm vchnf fln flontr? counsellor; what a profound lawyer; what a faithful citizen; what a superb soldier; what a true friend and scholarly companion was he whose sudden and deplorable death is announced to-day. It were impossible to describe, in few words, the varied strength and intellectual and ethical symmetry of ,-Col. Jiionls-^oharactei^JLt wcui-harcL to say wtictber lie should be most praised for his success in civil affairs, or for his undimnied brilliancy as a soldier. The stars and wreath of brigadier general were well within his grasp, but his largest, success in military life was gained as commander of the skirmish line. The power he had in grasping large measures, he could apply to even the minutiae of his profession. Profoundly analytical, he was not wanting in the synthetical faculty. Indeed, it seemed that he separated and subdivided his facts in order to establish the harmonious unity of a great argument, to the level of which he always rose. A great man, and a self-made man, in the largest sense of the word, has passed away lroin us. (From the Chester Reporter.) For twenty-five years Col. Rion's name has been a household word iu Chester, where he was highly esteemed for his sterling qualities as a citizen and his great learning as a lawyer. He served his country during the Confederate war with great earnestness and gallantry. Col. Rion devoted his whole time, since the war, to the law. He never sought or accepted any political position His reputation as "a corporation lawyer extended all over the United States, and during the past few years he had been associated with some of the ablest lawyers of New York in the management of important railroad cases. For a number years he has been the chief counsel of the Richmond & Danville Railroad and the Atlantic Coast Line. At the recent meeting of ths S'ate Bar Association they unanimously elected Col. Rion as "their president. {From, the Manniny Times.) James H. Rion is dead! Another one of South Carolina's brilliant meteors has run its course and will no longer illuminate her annaL>> of great deeds with the light of its achievements?this mind of brilliant parts has fulfilled, and nobly, the duties of this life, and is 110 moae to be harassed by the cares and anxieties of this world. Jaines H. Rion. from bovhood and through life, was distinguished by J those rare traits which bespeak no mind or character of common calibre, and devotedly towards his native Slate lias lie used them. Recognized i as the leader pre eminent in this State j in jhe ranks of tiie judicial profession, j his loss will be keenly felt?and by j none more than the unknown law j student struggling for his daily bread, j whose friend he was always. An in- j timate friend of John C. Caihoun, j their memories will ever remain ; brightly surrovndcd in the hearts of Carolinians. (From the Charleston Dispatch.) Everywhere in this State, and esneciallv in Charleston, the death of ; Col. James H. Rion mast be severely regretted. Of marked intellectual capacity, he held a high place in letters, at the bar and in general literature. The distinguishing characteristic of his j mind was analysis, because his mental traits were mathematical. A man of no pretense, or of such personnel as (o cxcitc inquiry as to his indentity, he never failed to impress hearer and beholder, whenever he delivered his opinions on any subject. lu 110 department of life was lie else than grand in all the elements of superb manhood. As student, soldier and lawyer, no less j than as citizen, father and friend, he j stood out a bright figure, and will ever j be recalled as one of South Carolina's I greatest sons. (Columbia fatter to the J\~ac*?nd Courier.) I The news uf Col. Rion'> death was i received in Columbia with much sur- j ? ? ? I? I ?llMrtTBlli r> MMHlll ! ? !? prise and regret. lie had been inti- ! mately associated all his life with i Columbians that the feeling is what it ! would be if a most prominent resident' r\f t y l?<wl l?_5r>n*Q Irict ! .appearance here was at the recent j meeting of the State Bar Association, and the words and feeling with which lie acknowledged the honor done him t in his election to the presidency of the i association?an organization reprc- 4 seminjr the profession in which he had \ ?i> much pride?are wel* remembered. t Col. ition was the senior partner of the j j tini! of Kion & Barron, of this city, j 1 and wa? a firm friend and constantj1 visitor of (Columbia. (From the Lancaster Review.) Col. llion may justly be character- j ized as 21 tine lawyer, an erudite J scholar, a brave and skillful soldier, j and a distinguished citizen?traits of I character which stand out in bold re-; lie! for the emulation of all good men. His mortal remains have been borne out of sight, but his virtues still re- main in the records of the past to in- , spire the men of the present and of the < future to higher thoughts and nobler I action. His sad and sudden death I reminds us "What shadows we are And what siiadows we pursue." {From the Chexter Bulletin.) The news of Col. Rion's death wa3f received in Chester with much surprise and general regret. He attended almost every Court here tor many j years and was intimately associated ! with our people. Col. Rion';> last, ap-! pearance here was on last salesdav. He had many warm friends in Chester and was a constant visitor here. Col. Rior. was a brave soldier during the * war and was in twenty-two battles. He was one of the most profouud lawyers in the State, and in his untimely death the whole State loses a great and useful man. (From the Daily Register.) It is difficult to estimate the loss which the State sustains in the death of such a large-minded and catholichearted man as James H. Rion; bill everywhere, especially in the county of his adoption, his wise counsel, his unostentatious charity, his genial social influence will be missed, and those who have been honored ami | blessed by lhe association, the iutlu- j ence and the example of such a man | will be made keen I v to realize that his j death creates a void in the public and j private life ot a whole people. (From the Aiken Journal and Review.) In the death of Col. James H. Rion, ' South Carolina has lost one of its : ablest and noblest citizens. A man ofj profound learning; a brilliant lawyer; a conservative and patriotic citizen, ihe State will find it hard to fiil his place. In war, in peace and in the private walks of life, he exemplified the virtues which go to make up, as far as possible, a perfect man. {From the Aiken Recorder.) The death of this distinguished citizen comes as a shock to the entire j State. A splendid soldier, able law-: yer, ripe scholar and an honorable, i "large-hearted citizen has gone to his i eternal rest. Peace to his ashes, and j may a merciful Providence comfort i ?

Rion ; was fifty-eight years old. He was generally regarded as one of the lead- i frs of the South Carolina bar. (From the Kingstree Record.) Col.
