The issue is square before you, and you need not try to dodge ii. Governor Tillman may recommend and the legislature may enact, but the * conviction must come from the jury. Ik anything happens of public interest in our neijhborborhood send a statement of it to The News and Herald. The income tax feature of the tariff bill has no terror for the country editor, since nothing less than a $400t income is taxed. That lets them ?ut. ^ We shall very shortly send out cards, for crop reports, to our correspondents, and shall publish each week a report of the farming' operations throughout the county. Governor Tillman's iuterview after returning from Washington is the shrewdest piece of non-committal, as you like it, X told you so, that has ever happened in this country. Hawaii is receiving her full share of congressional discussion, which seems to have taken a strictly partisan turn. The Republicans oppose the President's policy which is supported by the Democrats. We have bad arrangements for getting Columbia or Charleston dailies now, old "Rip Van Wiukle??the (Charlotte Observer) gets here four or five hours ahead of either of them. And jlfei we are always glad te see him. WP*9 Strait has straightened things be|S> tween him and Irby. There will be a heap of straightening done before the election comes off. The "Old Blinker" has been to Washington, and has the hoys in his breechcs pocket yet. The whiskey trials go merrily on, but, so tar, the State has failed te secure a conviction. The only conviction wo recall is that of Constable Elliott for assaulting a woman and he has been pardoned by the Governor. The Bowden men say ther must have a convention to settle the candidates. They are too thick to handle to advantage, and the alliance element want to know "where they are at' before the conflicting candidates cause a rupture. This being campris" year those who wish to be posted on county politics or what is going on in th* county, had better subscribe now. "V,ou cannot do without your county paper which the ~~ manag-eSient, ^hall make particularly interesting this year* So send in your name before '"it's too late." We admire Trial Justice Jones' pluck in entering a nol pros., after |k hearing the testimony, in a case where ^ . .N a respects^ msii's ^laraJ.ci* is attacked by half witted and pliable negro evidence, aiiied by that of a white man of whom it is proven under oath, that his word is without foundation or belief. GovepjsOu Tillman used to say that Piiis Miu-ucasiu v was paiei uanauj iu'i mad," but after he met Terrell at Spartanburg, he has not said anything ?against the sub-treasury. We must give Tilitr.an credit, though, for being a mau who has the courage of his convictions?provided things don't run counter to his personal interest. Secretary Carlisle has disposed of $50,000,000 worth of new bonds. "We have not learned how many are taken in Fairfield. The News and I1eiuli> did not get in on this deal as we wanted some iegal questions as to their validity settled. We shall, however, come in on the next round as we feel that they will be a s.afeinvestment. V?'e want about $25,000 of them. >Vii;:x the papers were raking Cal Caughuiau for the part he took in the assasinatioii of a colored man in Lexington jail, Governor Tillman upheld Caughman and said, "he is a gentleman and there is no stain on his es-1 cutcheon/' But the Register said after Caughman s relationship was broken ivith that element, that he was the biggest load to carry that the reformers ! had. Caughman is somebody else's ox now?but he is not ours. ^ij> ? ? "Woodkow Wilson has ar. article in the February Forum on "The Calendar I of Great Americans." He classes Generals Grant and Lee as great Americans, but he pleases to call Mr. Caihsun a great provincialist and not a product of American civilization. Mr. Calhoun was not an American in the sense in which the word is used by L the Republicans, but we are inclined to think that he is as much a growth o? American thought and civilization | as Webster or Clay. j The o'd newspaper containing an j account of George Washington's death j and the proceedings of congress thereto, j a notice of which appearo in our local columns, is not only a valuable relic but its contents reveal a patriotic spirit that's almost dead. President Adam's messages are brief and fall of patriotism, and the remarks in congress have a genuine love of country that we should like very much to see revived. TTvtvfj? normal renditions we would not favor an income tax, but by a most outisgeous system of taxation it bas been made possible for, a few to accumulate gigantic fortunes and it seems equitable that these men should contribute their fmll proportion of the revenues. The incomc tax clause hai been incorporated in the Wilson bill, and it goes in by Democratic votes. A few New Yorkers and >'ew Engenders, whom it will especially.affect, voted against it. It does not matter whether Constable Elliott, of Lancaster, slapped Mrs. Nolte, so far as Governor Tillman's conduct is concerned. His official act iil pttiUViiliJg l'iiUVU 10 ao unci a. jl/ivuw of lawlessness as was ever undertaken by the vilest despot that ever ruled. The facts in the case have nothing to do with his gratuitous outlawry, for he pardoned Elliott without hearing the testimony and without knowledge of the facts from the court of the trial justice, which is a component part of the State Court. W'E wish that it were S3 that our people would devote their whole time to developing the business interests of the State, and pay less attention to politic?. It is a strange thing that the harder the times are, the greater the enthusiasm over; politics. High and wild political excitement is generally a concomitant of financial depression. How much more we could accomplish if we would appW ourselves down strictly to business, and then when an election comes apply [our, business principles to the solution of political questions. We wonder how many men in Fairfield know that the last Legislature passed a law forbidding the citizcna of this State to offer game birds for sale? And further, compells a man from out side of the State to pay a license of $25 to hunt in South Caroliaa. There are men in this county ready to dispute this because they see it in a Straightout paper, but it is true neveri * ___ ^ A ineiess. a utile dov irom me couinry has net the right now to kill a few partridges and bring them to Winnsboro to sell, nor can any man invite a I friend from North Carolina or Georgia to join in a hunt, unless that friend pay a license of $25. To what are we coming? After a iong struggle tariff reform now seems to be an accomplished fact. "W. L. Wilson is the cbampiou of the great measure, and the enthusiasm with which his bill was passed by the House of Representatives marks a new epoch in the United States. The Democratic party has made a long light on thi? great issue, and its leaders have displayed a courage and patience that must merit the commendation of all fair minded citizens. The bill may not be perfect in every particular. Still it indicates a great victory and is the beginning of a revolution in our system ef Federal taxation. The Democratic party only asks its supporters to exercise patience and relief i will eventually come. We have published an article by "Reformer True Blue" and a reply thereto. Possibly a closer scrutiny of these articles -would have prompted us to exclude them. The line, however, has to be drawn somewhere, and it is frequently hard for a Journalist to know exactly where to draw it. "We have concluded now to step it forthwith, and hereafter no article not written in parliamentary language and free from personalitiei shall be published. These kind of discussions do no good, and we must insist oil our right to reject them. It may or may not seem a little unfair to stop them at this stage, but it must be done at some point, and now is as good a time a? any. The shooting affair in Columbia is a very striking illustration of the danger of passing a law that does not meet the approval of the public conscience. The dispensary law makes the state assume a business that properly belongs to the private citizen, j ani the State engages in a monopoly. | This is repugnant to Democratic prin ciples and traditions. Philosophically speaking, a people, who have been taught that the government cannot do these things, will very naturally resent the enforcemont of such laws. We desire, however, to lay apecial emphasis on the fact that the fight in Columbia was between Reformers. It is the Governornor's own friends who boldly defy the law and risk their lives in defence of what they conceive to be an encroachment of their liberties. It is to be regretted that tbe indications are that factional and personal politics have been injected into the management of Clemson College. Prof. Newman makes the charge in an interview published in au Atlanta newspaper, that his resignation, as professor of agriculture in Ciemson, l was requested because he was not in sympathy with the political prejudices o' the Governor and college president. He further charges that the re-electiou of uvo members of the board of trustees failed, in order to pievent an investigation of the circumstances attending his resignation. The professor, however, is unfortunate in accusing President Craighead with being jeaions of "the good reputation" he, the professor, enjoyed throughout the State. This is a purely personal matter between the two gentlemen and is of I I ! pubiic. interest only in so far as it : would nfleet the harmony of the faculty:' But Fro. Newman <;oes gh to charge , that 'he Governor's hatc.'set fell upon j his head bee.iuse he was a friedd of^ All", L^oniuuson wuu is not a punucai : friend of the Governor, and it U this j feature which gives the matter the appearance of personal politics, and ! which will injure the institution which j Las cost the taxpaveis so much money. I Clemson College iu order to be a! great stale institution should be entirely free from the personal political struggles now going on in the State. It must be a place where all or any of the youth of the State may 20 to get an education regardless of factional or political affiliation. Otherwise it will become the school of only one set of people and thus intensify and develope the class prejudices which are now destroying the unity of the State. It shall be very hard for the manage-1 ment of the college to lift it above the dangers of that classism which was unfortunately appealed to to bring about its establishment. We trust that the charges of Prof. Newman are merely the result of his misapprehension. His Resignation xrili b?> in Order. If the Governor is consisiont Trial Justice Jones, of Chester County, "mp T?nr>tv Mnnnf. micrht as well send in his resignation. For he had a case before him last Wednesday whtre a party was tried for violating the dispensary law and without a jury, yet he had the effrontery to no> pros the case. ADangertus Policy. A dangerous tendency underlies the action of Governor Tilhnan in pardoning the constable convicted in Charleston a few days ago. Aside from the guilt or innocence of the constable, let it be remembered that he was pardoned by the Governor as soon as the news of his having been found guilty reached Columbia. A jury had said that he wasguiltv. The Governor had not had an opportunity to consider the evidence. Suppose he had been convicted of murder--would the same action have been taken? The dangerous tendency consists in the fact that the State constables cau commit crimes under the shield of their office with a fair probability of securing a pardon. But the-e is an even worse phase of the case. The Governor threatens to remove any trial justice that does not b:>w to his judgment on cases tried before the trial justice. This policy carried far enough will soon rob citizens of their liberty, and we hardly thiuk that the thinking uien among the reformers will give it their approval. WASHINGTON ENTOMBED. On Wednesday last, the mortal part of WASHINGTON the Great?the Father of his Country and the Friend of man was consigned to the tomb, with solemn honours and funeral pomp. a multitude of persons assembled, from maay miles round, at Mount Vernon, the choice abode and kst residence of the illustrieus chief. There were the groves?the spacious avenues, the beautiful and sublime scene?, the noble mansion?but, alas! the august inhabitant icas noic no more. That great soul wa?yone. His mortal part was there indeed; but ah! how affecting! how awful the spectacle of such worth and greatness, thus, to mortal eyas, fallen!?Tes! fallen! fallen! Iu the long and lofty Portico, where oft the Hero walked iu all his glory, now lay the shrouded corpse. The countenance still composed and serene, seemed to depress the dignity of the pirit, which lately dwelt in that lifeless form. There those who paid the last sad honour* to the benefactor of his ceuntry, tooK au impressive?a farewell view. On the ornament, at the head of the coffin was inscribed Surge ad Judicium ?aooiu me miauie ui mu oumu, gloria deo?aud on the silver plate. GENFRAL GEORGE WASHINGTON, Departed this life on-the 14 December, 1799, JEt. 68. Between three and four o'clock, the sound of artillery from a vessel in the river, firing minute gun?, awoke afresh ?ur solemn sorrow?the corpse was moved?a band of music with mournful melody melted the soul into all the tenderness of woe. The procession was formed and moved on in the following order: Cavalry, Infantry, Guard; with arms reversed. Music. Clergy. The General's hoive with his saddle, holsters, and pistols. Cols Simms, Ramsay, Payne, Pall Bearers. CORPSE Cols. Gilpin, Marsteiler, Little. Mourners, Masonic Brethren, Citizens. When the Procession had arrived at the bottom of the elevated lawn, o:i the banks of the Potomac, where the family vault is placed, the cavalry halted, the infantry marched towards the Mount and formed their lines -the Clergy, the Masonic Brothers, and the Citizens, descended to the Vault, anil the funeral service of the church was performed. The firing was repeated from '.he vessel in the river, and the sounds cchocd from the woods and hill* around. Three general discharges by the infantry?the cavalry, and eleven pieces of artillery, which lined the banks of the Potomac back of the Vault, paid the last tribute to the entombed Commander in Chief of the armies of the United States and to the departed hero.

Aa article appeared recently Signed 44Ri former True Blue" which is not as complimentary t>> me as >ome I have read, m tact yon will agive with nie in the opinion that the auih ?r be*rs? me no yood will to say the least of it. Itemeinbering that I lived in a day ; iif'non ?11"c /*?L- />h?nnlv>rc r\f /Mir* cvAmai> I are not free from the prying e\e* of! ruthless officials, and thai to slap the j face of one was to curry favor and J insure a pardon from tha highest official of the state. I at first "thought j I would not be too particular and would let the matter go My curii osity was excited however, and I set about tracing up the write/. I found that a brother-in-law 'of the sosi of the ?lPrince farmer of Fairfieldhad assumed the authorship aud carried it to the office. I don't suppose that a dozen men outside the immediate vicinity would recognize him if! gave his name. I did not know him myself until he approached me in the bank in the most cordial manner and informed that he was now living in the county, and that we had been comrades In (he army. This aroused my suspicions; how this old comrade who spoke to me when I did not recognize him, and looked so pleasantly as we narrated incidents connected with the war could have feelings in.hi* heart which would prompt the writing of so venomous an article I couM not understand. Besides, parlies who know him 9av that he makes no pretensions to being a man of letters, ami is not given la wilting for the papers, aud thai it is ?vide,ut that he was a mere cat's paw for another who was afraid to face' the music himself. This was matter of greater mystery etill, but upon leading the communication again I discovered ear marks and immediately the conclusion flashed upon me;?this is not the brother-in-law, for 1 plainly see the ' fine Italian hand" of the young ''Prince" himself. This you will remember is a faroriie dodge of" these Tillman officials, I have been made the victim of it before. It will be remembered too that recently I wrote a series of articles iu which I charged and proved that our legislators had followed precisely in the footsteps of the negro delegation headed by Senator Barber which represented this county in the days of good stealing and carpetbag and scalawag rule. Yon will'remember that I stated that my purpose wa? not to injure or vilify our representatives, but to make the people realize to what extent they had gone so that a halt would be called before it was too late. You will also remember that they conceded my right to propound questions and make comments * ?* ? ViAtf'Kn! n a?

If in the course alluded to, 1 accused them of caucussing against the Judges because they were " hot Tillmadtes and electing inferior;'men who were, or if I said that the boiKids of congressional districts had been gerrymandered, deliberately and with malice aforethought, so that honorable white men, and elegant no1)!e women were to be put under negro rule, if in fine, I said that they had dist'eputabiv, dishonorably, dishonestly ^misapplied the taxes jvrnug from an oppressed and impoverished people',?it was because it so appeared to me then', and I repeat it now after- mat-wer thought and the most charitable ,cpnstruction I can place upon ft. .^ ; But these things were gro'singJfrksoine to the "Prince," he- is &iram- ' I bilious fellow,?mbst "Princes"- ?;'r?? he had "swung" into one office?the tiling tasted good, and sounded' big, . and like the monkey tliat climed the pole he wanted to go higher.

The thing as I said was growing monotinous, my letters were opening the eyes of the good men in the Tillman ranks, and as a consequence the chauccs of the "Prince", for rotation into a higher and better office were on the wane. Something had tobe done, I the thing usual with men of this st?pe I is cither to resort to the cuttle fish mode of attack obscuring their own vile persons by- the interposition of inky matter furnished by others, or patterning after that "great and good man", the head of your party, to- brazenly assail the characters of thokc * rnt.^ Ua/N ttiio oppose you. ii?? -jrnuw uus attempted both plans by putting forth His brother-in-law as his blind, and by himself publishing a lot of infamous lies, everyone of which he knew to be a lie when he wrote it.
