The "privelege," or whatever you may call it, given to the national banks, giving them the right to issue money is a discrimination which belongs to that policy of the Republican - - * - ? ? -_ party which lias proancea so many t>i the evils of (he present day. We do not see how the national bauks themselves can object to the repeal, for most of them contend that it does not pay them to issue currency. A tax on State banks was declared constitutional by a divided court, and many of the most eminent lawyers of the ^ country think that the dissenting opinion is the soundest view. Wo believe it is violating the principle of the sovereignty of a State to say that it cannot pass laws regulating the uttering of currency by its bauks. without paying a tax of ten per cent to the ?' "* ? ^ i m*. _ m.i. leaerai i>overnment. j.ne outie uuc? i not force the acceptance of such money; it only asks that its own people may issue it, and if they are satisfied with the safety and soundness of this currency, we can see no reason for the national government complaining. , The repeal of this law, in our opinion, wonld be a great relief to the country and especially to the South. In times of severe stringency like last year, jevery little community could supply itself with money, and be practically independent of "the corners" in the big money ccntres. Our currency system should be denationalized. As it is, as soon as it gets out the treasury it flows to 'New York and other large cities, me repeal or idu iha would tend wonderfully to check this tendency. Each little community would be a little money contre for distribution. The present law is a piece of class legislation, and should properly be put in the same category with all the other, paternal doctrines of the Republican party. Clemson Burned We are surprised to hear thai only twenty or twenty-five thousand dollars was taken on a sixty thousand dollar building and contents at Clemson. Ii is very easy to say, "I told y?a so," but it must be admitted that with such pbor protection against fire, a3 was evidently tbe case on that occasion, the authorities have boen remiss about the matter. They certainly should have guarded the Sta'e's interest more zealously, either by insurance or by watsr-works. No improvement in this chonlil hfivp hppn omitted. We regret extremely that such a disastrons casualty has happened, bat we rejoice that it is no worse. We are happy over the fact tnat the exercises will not be interrupted. Build np again,but protect it iu future. Senator Gorman's Speect Senator Gorman has a very happy and strong way of putting what he has to say, and his speech on the tarjfi bill is very well said, in many respects it is a good defense of the Democratic party, but we cannot endorse all that he has said. We cannot agree with him that the delay in passing the bill is wholly justified under the circumstances. We cannot think with him that the bill has been improved since . it found its way to the Senate. Of | course, Senator Gorman has given the f subject more stucly tnan vre nave, ana is more competent to say whether or not the bill sufficiently provides for the revenue necessary to carry on the government, but we have more conscience in Representative "Wilson, of West Virginia, than in Senator Gorman. Mr. Wilson has devoted special study and attention to tariff legislation for a number of years. Mr. Wilson ? . ...a., i. .vj is a political scuaem aau uuusiueis uic ?philosophy of legislation as well as its practical results, while Senator Gorman is not what may be called a political student, but an ordinary shrewd politician aimiug more to win at the next election than anything else. Senator Gorman does not like the income tax teature or me oni, ouo win go with his party oil it. An iucome tax is a system of taxation abou1; which there is a great diversity of opinion among political economists. In theory it is considered by mauv the most just plan of taxation. The government under which the citizen lives makes it possible for liim to have anv income at all, and it seems fair that lie should contribute to that government a fair and reasonable proportion of his income for the support of the government. David A. Wells thinks- that ' 'such a method of supporting a government would obviously, in p^int of certainty, equality, and productiveness, accord in the highest degree with those canons or maxiums of taxatieu wnicn are regarded by nearly all economists and jurists as the highest embodiment of human wisdom oa this subject," but this economist thinks that the prac- , ticability of enforcing the law is too uncertain, that the experience of this country arid others which have tried it teaches that the plan as a means of raising revenue will always be a failure. The chief objection to the system is that in order to enforce it, no plan can be devised that is not inquisitorial, and, therefore, it bccomes neccssary to pry into and divulge the private business of the citizen. This has made the tax odious, but there can be no doubt that it is a personal and direct tax. Adam Smith has said: "The private ? ? J;..! in nlfi_ revenue vi muiviuuena aum* u?umately from three different sources: rent, profits and wages. Every tax must finally be paid from some one or other of those three different sources of revenue, or from all of them indifferently." This is true. Under the tariff, a system of indirect taxation, the poorer classes have to pay out their small incomes a heavy tax for the very necessaries of life, wholly out of proportion to what the rich man pays. It seems to us the income tax is worth trying. The rich have been made rich 1 AII -fn * Uy LUC Lai iU, auu, iu an xaii iuu> owe something to the government which has enabled them to reap such large annual incomes. It is just that a pari jf their incomes should go to the government. MITFORD ITEMS. Mitford, S. C., May 20.?"The spring time comes again gentle Annie" might have been sung with grateful o/?L-nAT*rli?r!crAmf?nt!a ft fpw ;1a\"S a?"G. but to sing such a refrain this morning when the thermometer registers the frost point would sound like mocker}' on a huge joke. To say "winter is lingering in the lap of spring" would be more in harmony with our feelings. Blankets and heavy coats are in demand at this writing, and the end is not yet if a northwest stiff breeze portends cold weather. I saw the result of the frost last night in the nipping of the potato leaves. In all probability much damage would have resulted if there had been more moisture. The good seasons a fortnight ago have improved the wheat and gardens wonderfully, which is a God send just at this juncture when everybody's crib and larder are exhausted. The farmers around Mitford, Rocky Mount and Gladden's Grove have taken advantage of the good weather and have their crops clean? and it is very common to hear the remork, "I have never been further along with my work." I have before me, Mr. Editor, an old paper, llie uazeue ana uauy jiacerii*er published in Charleston, January 8, 1808, handed me by Mrs. James Johnston (nee Barkley) for inspection. This paper has been in Mrs. Johnston's family since its publication. The subscription price is $8 per annum, and it contains about one-third the matter of a copy of the Herald. Under its prospectus you will fiud the following from its editor, Peter Freneau, which, taken in connection with its general make-up, is curious and calculated to make ?ne smile: "We will endeavor tn onmlnrf. ir. ffhft naner) in Slich a manner as to ^ive satisfaction to its subscribers ana patrons, etc , etc., aud retain the patronage the paper bas invariably received for twenty-five ye'ars." Under rewards it contains this notice: ''Alien DeGraffenreid offers $20 for a negro runaway, An drew, a blacksmith, from Sandy river, Chester District, near Fish Dam F>rd." In connection with these souvenirs or family heir-looms, I was shown by Mrs. Robt. Ford, Jr., this morning a pin cushion that has been in the family for one hundred and fifty years Mr. L. M. Ford has in his possession a powder horn owned by his great-grand sire Gaither which antedates the revolutionary war. Who can beat this for a grape Vine (the ol i field variety) ? There grows on Mr. Jno. Nichols' plantation, the old Arledge place, on the Catawba, a grape vine which by actual measurement is inches in circumference. The musical entertainment at the residence of Mr. \V. T. McUrorev last Friday evening was quite a success, both in the rcndetion of sweet music, beautiful recitations, and the raising of a snug little sum for the purpose of buying an organ for Mount Moriah Church. The music and pieces selected for recitation were of an excellent order. The first on the program was Prof. \Vr. S. Ilall, whose rendition of "Clayton's Grand March" on the piano was artistic and was_fu!ly appreciated by the audience. Then followed a recitation by Mr. Jason Hall, which was an example of splendid elocution, and fully sustained his reputation as an elocutionist. Next on the program was a vocal solo by Miss Eva Scott, "How So Fair," from the opera of Martha, which evinced a cultivated voice. Then came the "Goblins", a recitation by little Mi>s Irene Scott, which was much enjoyed by all. Then a beautiful instrumental so!o by Miss Love Mobley, whose expressionarv execution was faultless. Next a recitation by Miss Eva Scott. Then a beautiful instrumental solo by Miss Bessie Hall, which evinced remarkably good execution for one so vounsr. Rev. Mr. McDowell then read an exceedingly appropriate selection. This was followed by a beautiful duet on the piano by Master Strother Ford and sister Laura. Every one was delighted with the performance of these little folks which was simply superb. Then followed a sweet song by Miss Lou Mobley, and another instrumental solo by Miss Era Scott. Thus ended a very pleasant and profitable evening to those who were present on this occasion. The Mitford High School, taught by Prof. W. S. Hall and sister, Miss Kathleen, closes this week As a patron of this school allow me to express my thanks to the Professor and Miss Kathleen for their splendid work. The Mitford High School is certainly the peer of any school of the same pretentions in the State. God speed the Professor in his chosen field. J. A. Scott.

Recent discoveries hare demonstrated that all the organs of the body are under the control of the nerve centers, located in or near the base of the brain, and that when these are deranged the organs -which they supply with nerve fluid are also deranged. When it is remembered that a serious injury to the spinal cord will cause paralysis of the body below the injured point, because the nerve force is prevented by the injury from reaching the paralyzed portion, it will be understood how the derangement of the nerve centers will cause the derangement of the various organs which they supply with nerve force. Two-thirds or chronic diseases are due to the imperfect action of the nerve centers at < the base of the brain, not from a derange- ! ment primarily originating in the organ it /Nil# TKn rnwof air/* rvhrrcfofa nc in acii?
