Wedifes.lay, December I y :: :
Ex-Governor Tillman's political
admirers have bad a full life-ize portrait
of him painted and will present
it to the State.
We publish today au artic'e from
? Jdrrir. S-wJV vlie on the condi! ion of
the cotton farmer and the conditions
conseqquent thereto. We trust that
out of the agitation now going on
some good will f-urely result. We
ask every one of our readers to carefully
study Mr. Wvlie's plan, Mr.
Roddy's plan and the Alabama plan.
There is no doubt that a decreased
acreage figures largely in adjusting the
^ i?uu a fhovA no doubt
present irouic. nuu vuv?v ?
that if the farmers will, they can redace
the acreage and gain thereby.
\Ye do not see how Senator Buist
can be censured for his speech on the
aneirda&ents offered t? the bill providing
fcr the election of delegates to the
coBatitftiou&l convention; A charge
of fraud in the election this year has
beea made from one end of the State
"<Lj, to the other. The General Assembly
itself has denied the right of a citizen
to producckis witnesses to prove his
allegations of fraud. The fact caunot
be concealed that distrust among the
white voters exists, and they will not
consent again to go into an election
together unless conducted under regulations
that will not make fraud passible.
We would be glad to see the
white people united again, but cannot
hope for it until members of the General
Assembly shall dealiaa broader
spirii in the enactment of election laws.
CP I t^i
Sentiment in fa7or of the u.couie
tax seems to be growing in Congress,
and the law has come to stay. This is
a law in favor of the masses, and is
one of the good things accomplished
"by the Democratic party that should
be remembered by the people when
t'aev go to the ballot box in '96. The
masses have been paying taxes for
thirty years to increase the wealth of
the few. Under the system of taxation
adopted by the Republican party
large fortunes have accumulated in the
hands of a few , and poor has got
poorer and poorer. It teems just that
the beneficiaries should now pay back
a pai t at least of the money that they
have received under these unjast laws.
Or coarse, many frauds will be committed
under the income tax law; all
manner of schemes wiligbe devised to
evade its provisions, and the shrewdest
tricks will be used to conceal from the
authorities incomes liable to taxation
under the law. In spite of dodging
the tax, we believe that a large revenue
will be raised under the law, and the
will fall upon those who are best able
10 bear it. The chief objection to the
* law is its inquisitorial feature. This
objection, however, applies, mere or
less, to every *rstem of taxation, and
n
? the law is carefully framed to meet
this objection as far as possible.
The State finds the following in the
Manning Times, and we think justly
complains that it refers "vaguely to
'pie-hunters', 'place-grabbers', 'barnacles',
'pirates' and the 'iron heel of
oppression.'" This is the extract:
"There is no 4eti0t that when the
' ^f>ppiitical waters were shaken up in
~men came to the top and took
high places; to hold on to what advantage
they geined, they continued the
agitatieii; the result has been that the
true Reformer# have been retarded in
-their work of reform by the pie hnnters
and place-grabbers, and now to
scr<;pe off the barnacles that have fastened
themselves to the Reform ship
the people must come together. If the
people become indifferent and do not
arou?e themselves, they will find that
they are tied hand and foot by pirates
who boarded the ship when the general
invitation was extendrd to "get on
board.'* There are some now who,
' * -i
as-timing to ocrn cuarge yi lue weiui m
movement, are so intsxicated with
their success that they imagine they
are ihe entire movement, and if anything
is wanted it most come throngh
them. These men, instead of working
for the objects set ont to be accomplished
by the Reform movement, have
_ laid aside those objects and are converting
by 'hurrah-tor-hell-who-caresfor-fi.-c'
methods a machine to grind
ont places for favorite ones, and if a
halt, is not called such au upheaval
will take place that the revolution of
1S90 will be like a gentle zephyr on a
summf.r evening in comparison. The
rate that some of the would-be leaders
nf the Reform movement want to keep
up must be checked, and the sooner
the people make them understand it
the better it will be for the State. The
people are tired of this constant strife.
They want taxes reduced, they want
their children educated, they want the
ruling powers to take the iron heel of
oppression from off their necks, and
these things do not come nor can they
come when one set is tearing down
while the other is trying to build np.
If the present leaders cannot or will
not give the people the desired relief, a
change will be demanded and it will
come."
We agree entirely with the State
& ^ that nothiBg practical can be done to
remove the "iron heel of oppression"
unless a leader shall be found with the

We really believe lhat ? large majority
of the Reformers are tired ??f "the
hurrah-for-lieil-Whe-cares-tor-tiie methods",
ai:tl won 1.1 gladly put rill (.11(1 to
them, if only >ome man wrj?h the mmhood
and boldness would rise and |?-ad
them. As th* Tints says, "the people
are tired of th".<s constant strife." The
Times is a Reform j iurml, let ii poii.i
out wbu are "the would be leaders of
the Reform movement" who "want to
keep up" "the hnrrah-for-hell-who
cires-for-fira methods" so thai they
may be provided with places.
The Sfetropolltau Police.
Senator Wilson's bill for a metropolitan
police system should be killed,
and kill :d promptly. The provisions
of the bill is a long step towards cen
tralizing tremendous power in the
hands of the Governor, so much power
that it would not be wi-e to grant to
any man, uo matter who or wnat n?
may. The bill provides th?t whenever
the Governor shall deem it a'lyi-able
or necessary f>r the governm :nt of
any city in this S'ate of more than
2,500 inhabitants, he shall appoint
three police commissioners. He can
remove any of those commissioners at
will, and Gil vacancies. The Governor
designates ihe chairman or president
of the commission or board. The
salaries of these commissioners are
fixed by the Governor, not less than
$50 nor more than $300, and the
salaries are to be paid oat the town
treasury.
The board has power to appoint
policemen. The board shall maintain
: hrt coni>ciI chamber, police
court room or station or convenient
place. Tiie board shall have control
of the police force and all station
house?, city prisons, patrol wagon*,
records, equipments and all ot^r
property belonging to the p??i:ce de
partmeut, and shall audit all claims
against same and certify them to the
mayor and council for payment. The
mayor and council shall pay ail such
claims, and they slull levy and collect
annually a tax sufficient to pay all the
expenses of the board and the members'
salaries.
Tuis is a dysnomy that should never
find its way to the statnte book. In
the hands of a partisan and unscrupulous
Governor it can lie used to oppress
his political opponents. It can be used
for the most corrupt purposes, and the
worse kind of oppression upon the
hv an unscru

pnlous Governor through hi< agents,
whose positiotu and whose sal ries
depend upon his (the Governor's) owu
sweet pleasure; and the cities will
have to pay for it all. The commission
can run up their expeuses enormously,
and council will have them to pay.
This is far from local self government,
and if anything like fair-miuded, justice
aud right shall characterize the
General Assembly, it will repudiate
any such iniquitous legislation as this.
If such law3 as this shall be enacted,
we need not expect auything but dissension
among the white people of
this State. It is not an olive branch
of peace by any means. The forty
Reformers who hive published over
their names an address to the Democratic
voters of the State saying that
the principles of Reform had been
accomplished and saying, in substance,
that It was time for unity, should show
their sincerity. They had a splendid
opportunity, and we shull watch with
interest to see what they shall do with
:< ThArp can and will be no peac?*
under a metropolitan police system.
No need exists for such drastic measures.
. It should be condemned as an
outrageous bill, making possible f.aud
and the most rotten corruption.
OUTS BERLIN LETTER.
Bear Editor: The "Old Schloss"
was, in the time of Frederick the
Great, the residence -of the i*h<?le
Royal family. He was born here.
The castle contains now 709 rooms
though only a few are sfeoWTi the
public. These rooms ^e now only
used as representation rooms or guest
chambers when royal visitors are entertained.
The first story is sometimes
occupied in winter by the Imperial
family.
From the Lust Garten on the Terrace,
we pass on entering the tw?
horse tamers in bronze?collossal figures?given
by Nicholas, of Russia,
passing through two large courts
within this grand building, we re
ceived from the castellan, our tickets,
50 pfennings (12? cents) each, "for
charity." Waiting in a well warmed
hall for the allotted half hour, a guide
took charge of a large party besides
ourselves, explaining as he went, the
different rooms and their interesting
points. We first climbed a slopirg terrace
laid with bricks, to the third floor,
to the palace guard room. The floors
are of inlaid hard wood in beautiful
patterns, waxed and highly polished.
These are protected from the tramp of
visitors by immense slip shod slippers
of felt, into which you are required to
thrust your shoes before beginning the
tour. And it was a gliding noiseless
movement we made over the glassy
surfaces and we felt quite solemn m
these deserted palace halls. We passed
through a long vista of highly
decorated stiffly furnished rooms?
with high ceilings in gorgeous frescoes.
damask silk covered walls, and
chandeliers of rock crystal. Hundreds
of royal portraits hung on the walls?
and we wished they were all out of
sight and that we could have the chandeliers
all lighted; what a brilliant
scene it would have been! With the
crimson and gold-frescoes, gilding and
immense mirrors,?one room the ceiling
was all mirrors and gilding and
with the crystal chandelier of a hundred
lights, what au illumination it
would have been.
A silver column, 8 feet high, with
the Borrussia on top adorned one
room. It was the gift ?f officers of
army and navy to Emporor Wiiliag
in 1869 whea he celebrated the 60th
anniversary of bis admission into the
army.
The "White Hall" is the largest and
most beautiful room in the Palace?
3,000 candles are needed to light it.
It is only used 0" State festivals and
a grand ball is given in it on the opening
of the Reichstag. This old casile
enjoys the romance of being haanted
by t he " White Lady" whose appearj
atice to a member of the Ilohenzollern
| family is a fore-rnnner of death.

One beautiful day driving out two
or three miles we came to the old
Royal Palace of ( harlot1 enburg. It
was built nearly 300 years ago. In
the garden or park is the famous Mausoleum,
the last resting placc of Frederick
Will am III, Queen Louise, Emperor
William I, and Empress Augusta.
The building is in the Doric style
built by Schhikel, King Frederick
William IV brother and predecessor
of the late William Emperor I, erected
to the memories of his father and
mother. The idolized Queen Louise,
beloved for her goodness and charities
lived much at this old Charlottenbur?
Castle. Her exquisitely sculptured
figures lies, as if oulv in "repose, on a
sarcophagus within the Mausoleum.
xms is one or jiuuicu ? iuu?o luauwu^ I
aud celebrated works. Her husband
is lying on a sarcophagus on her right
in full uniform. The heart of Frederick
William IV is preserved in a
marble casket at their feet.
The entrance to the room of death is
guarded by a fine stitue of the God of
Peace. The reposing figures of Emperor
William I, aud Empress Augusta
lie here also on sarcophagi. An altar
with a crucifix aud immense wax
candles on either side, fill up the rear

comes through blue gla*s in the dome
which casts a wierd and singularly
sepulchi-al light over the pure white
marble, striking one with awe and
almost grief that even king3 and
queeus must die as other men.
It is said King William came here
to kneel in prayer in this chapel, on
the eve of going to war withNapolean
III, and in the flush of victory came
again to kneel in silent prayer by his
beloved mother's tomb to thank God
for his glorious success.
Princess Bismark died at Varzin on f

that begins this article, and The News \

imagine that a fake was afloat, when <
two pedestrians, with their grips and
books arrived as promptly "on time" ]
as the limited vestibule. They passed j
on, the crowd following, and was j
soon under the hospitable roof of JMr.
Aiken. During the short interview
your correspondent was treated with courtesy,
and all questions answered
in a polite and unassuming manner.
They handed him two cards on oue of
which was neatly printed "Elder Job

Col.," the other "Elder W. E Cowley,
Jr., Cleveland, Emery Co., Utah," on

HE COMMITTED SUICIDE!;
The Cause and Its Lesson.
Why did he commit suicide? Oh! for
the same reason that thousands of others are
on the verge of the same sin, or. in immediate
danger of insanity, paralysis, idiocy,
or some other equally unfortunate result of
any nervous affection. He knew he was
afflicted with a nervous disorder, but was
careless, apparently indifferent to the outcome
; or he may have lessened his chances
for recovery by treating with physicians
who had little or no knowledge of such affections,
or by deluging himself with worthless
so-called remedies. His case was a sad
one, but no worse than that of any other
nervous sufferer, who has nervous or sick

melancholy, failing memory, hot flashes, {
tainting, sleeplessness, nervous dyspepsia,
sexual debility, epilepsy, etc. The same or
similar consequences are likely to result to
any one who has any of these advance
symptoms of an awful end. Do not hesitate
in getting rid of them by intelligent treatment.
Dr. Franklin Miles, the celebrated
specialist, has studied nervous diseases over
20 years, and has discovered the only reliable
remedy for them. Thousands of voluntary
testimonials prove the virtues of Dr.
Miles' Restorative Nervine.
Alonio Barker, of Clinton, N. Y., writes: "I
was so afflicted with extreme nervousness that
I was on the verge of insanity. My hands trembled
so that I could scarcely feed myself. I used
twelve bottltes of Dr. Miles' Restorative Nervine
and was cured. It is with pleasure I recommend
this wonderful remedy for nervous troubles."
"I had been a great sufferer from chronic
headache until I began, about four months ago,
to use Dr. Miles' Restorative Nervine and Pills,
since which time I have not had a headache.
Several of my friends are using Dr. Miles' Rem
edies, and find them, as I did, to ws more uian
jrou claim for them."?Mrs. Mary Klster, Los
Angeles, Cal.
W. II. Capwcll, editor Tribune,Plymouth, Pa.,
writes: " My wife was cured of sick headache ol
many years' standing by the use of Dr. Miles'
Restorative Nervine. She has recommended it tc
her ftiends, and they all praise it highly."
Dr. Miles' Restorative Nervine is sold by all
druggists on a positive guarantee, or sent direel
