THE FSOPLE MUST TAY FOK IT.
From and alter n?xt Friday, the
first day of Jaly, the people of the
^Dited States vrill begin to pay war
taxes. The war has beeu costing at
tbe rate of about a million do'lars a'
day, and the Government has pro-!
vided a revenue law to rai=e a part ofi
thalexpensos.
Tke act goes into effect from aDd
after next Friday, and failure to comply
with its terms may give rise to
very seriogs consequences. Many!
people will not see a copy of the law,
and in order that they may know in a
general way what are taxed, we shall
give a brief summary, selecting those
features of the law which will most
likely concern our own people.
Bankers, using %or employing a
PY^pp^incr S25.000. are re
qnired to pay a tax of $50; wbeD
r- using or employing a capital exceedv;
ing $25,000, two dollars for every ad^
ditional thousand in excess of $25,000.
Surplus shall be considered a part of
the capital.
Commercial brokers are taxed
twenty dollars. By commercial broker
i? meant every person, firm or company
whose business it is as a broker
to negotiate sales or purcb>ses of
goods, wares, prodnce, or merchanfroirrKffl

It is now iebatable whether the

Whatever Mr. Cleveland h?.j to says
he sav3 it well; "Foreign soaquest
and unnatural annexation are dangerous
perversioas of our national
mission," says Hn Cleveland. It was
nataral annexation in ca3c of Louisiana,
be?ause it was ?ontiguous and
gave the United States fall control of
the great Mississippi River. S? too
the annexation of Texas and otber
territory nov? forming our western
states, bst the anuexatien of the Phillipines,
Hawaii, or Puerto Rico would
be very unnatural, and, therefore,
I dangerous. This war was begun to
I free Cuba; it was ostensibly a war
j for humanity, and as snch the United
[States took high grounds. Shall it be
I converted into * war for conqftest?
i The inhabitants of these islands are
j so different from us that they would
give us never ending trouble.
The New York World puts it
strongly:
When the annexation of the
Hawaiian and the Philippine Islands
is proposed the case is entirely different.
They are not necessary to us.
<? Thp nearest.
iney are ijul wui^uutu.
grodp is 2,000 and the other 7,000
miles from our Pacific coast, or 5,U00
and 10,000 miles from our peat of
government. Their population U alien
in a sense that none ot oar immigration
has been. They do not fit and
cannot be made to fit into oar system.
They must be governed for a ?on-j
siderable time by some form of despotism.
A coaliog station we alreadv have
in Hawaii, where our paramount influence
is conceded by all nations.
We can and shall obtain the same
privileges at Manila, whatever disposition
be made of the Philippines.
Bat to set u,? Satrapies for the Sons
of Somebodies in the far Pacific and
in Oceanica, and to aonvert a war lor
freeing Cuba into a war of conquest
for tbe benefit of spoilsmen and adventurers,
is so foreign to all our
principles and traditions and is so
dangerous in its possibilities that it is
gratifying to find arrayed against the
! scheme Democratic leaders so wide
aparf in other matters as are William
J. Bryan and Grover Cleveland.
If Democrats cannot unite on the
money qnestici, let us hope that they
will unite on tbe Question of foreign
conquest. It will be a burning ques
tion when the war is over. As Mr.
j Cleveland says it will lower (he stand
ard of oar citigeasuip, ana ioreign
eonquests will be "dangerous perversion*
of our national mission."
AT SA>*TI4?e.
The transports carrying <2 an.
Shaffer [and his troops have arrived
at Santiago. Considering the moving
of such a large body of men, and the
extreme h?at, the number on the sick
list is exci^dingly small. A few
korses and mules died on the way,
and a few cases of typhoid fever and

These .?oldier? have been cramped
ia transports, and, of coarse, mmt fee
'worn oat by the loBg voyage. For
this reason, they were sot in good
fighting trim when they reached
Santiago. It would be very fortuaate
if they conla be landed, and given a
few days to recuperate before say
fighting had to be done.' The reports
as to the strength of the Spanish forces
j in the vacinity of Santiago are very
| conflicting. One account is that there
j are $0,000 to 40,000 Spanish soldiers

guerrilla fighting is continued, it will
be no picaic for Shatter's 19,000 men.
The authorities at Washington do not
??em to believe that. the enemy's
strength is so great, and they think
that 10,000 to 15,000 men will fully
cover it. If Spain ha3 30,000 to 40.000
men there, it is strange that they have
not completely annihilated Wellington's
COO marines, and if tbue marines
have succeeded so well iu b<>ldiDg
their' own, sorely Shaffer's 16,000
- - ?_ - ?? I
soldiers can manage to case care ui
themselves. Reinforcements will bs
s8Ht from time to tiose, and it is
hoped that im less than two weeks
Santiago will be in the hands of the
Americans, Cervera a> ! his rn^n
taken prisoners, his fleet c itrrd or
destroyed, and finally Lieui. ilobson
and his gallant men safely aboard an
American ship.
SPAIN DECLINES TO EXCHANGE.
It is reported that the Spanish authorities
have refnsed to exchange
iT.ient. Hobson and his crew. Of
! coarse, there is nothing ia the rules of
| war that compel a belligerent to make
I an exchange of prisoners, but it is
j generally done as a matter of convenience.
Oae report is that Gen.
[ Blanco will refuse to recognize a flag
of tracc. The Spaaish doubtless know
1 that this country is anxieus to have
Hobson and his men Tschauged on
aoconnt of their gallant deed, and they
think that it womli bitterly distppoiut
us, if the proposed exchange was
denied. The Spanish have no American
prisoners except Eob3on and his
crew, while the Americans hoid about
200 prisoners. 1'his Government will
- - - - .... ? i /* ,i..
undoubtedly retaliate in Kinu. lr inej
Spanish snffer llobson and kis men to
be killed. "We doubt the statement
that Spain Trill decline to recognize a
flag of trace, bat if this is true, then I
no time should be wasted in taking
possession of Havana, and whenjthis
Is done we hope that Gen. Blaaco himself
will be taken a prisoner along
with his whele army. Then, perhaps,
we shall not hare to ask for the ex
change of Hobson. ueu. anaiter ana
bis men are now at Santiago, anil be
ami Sampson will soon bare pusse*- i
aien of that place. When this is done,
if the Spaniards do not deal treacherously
with Hobson, he will be j
rescued. If Cervera does not take :
good care of Hobson, then Cerrera's :
life may pay the penalty for it.
Sampson* with orders to rescue |
Hobion, and if dead, to avenge bis |
death, can be counted on to execute
tbe orders.

Greenville 2?ews.
Newberry, S. C., Juue 2-i.?The |
defendants-charged with tHe muraer
?t Lovet Williams, a nejfro weman at
Pdtnaria in 1895, were given a preliminary
hearing before Magistrate
S, S. Cunningham on yestereay.
Owing to the absence oi Solicitor
Sease, Cole L, Biease appeared for the
State, while the defendants were represented
by Hunt & Hunt and J. Y.
CulWreath nod Senator llagsdale, of
Winnsboro, the latter for wo FaivSe!d
meis.
The warrant, charges W. T. Ilatton,
Adam L. Anil. Albert F. Itiser, Jim !
Clair, Robert Blair, East -Fnlmer and
Wash Wicker with the murder of one
Lovet Williams, at or near Pomana,
in Newberry county, in 1895.
Owin<r to the fact that thi* afl'air
has created a great deal of interest
the magistrate s sinaii eouri ruum was
crowded witli people who seemed to
be eagerly expecting some startling
disclosures to be made.
Mr. Blease says that the reason he
examined so few ot the State's witnesses
was simply to bring ont enough
evidence to make a probable case and
hold the defendants without making
knowu :? the defense the character of
the evidence the State's side bad in its
possession.
It may prove best for these defendants,
live of whom are p'0acin9nt
white men, ebarged with such a grave
offense that the case ha* been sent to
the sessions court, where they will
huve a full investigation, and if the
evidence the Stale is holding bick is
no stronger than that Drongnc owe ai
she preliminary yesterday they "will
have very little trouble in being vindicated
and acquitted of the crime
charged against them. At the beginning
there was a little tilt between
the lawyers on the question a? to the
prisoners pleading to the warrant.
The attorneys for the defease insisted
there was no law to require tr,em to
plead, and Mr. Blease said there would
be no hearing unless some answer was
set up to the warrant. After some
discussion Mr. Tiagsdale said the defendants
were not guilty, and this was
taken as a sufficient pie* to the sharge
and the ca:>c proceeded. The following
is an exau transcript of the testimony:
L>v Mr. Blease: D. A. Liviugston

done. They had charge of her kat
let her st;p to one side. Didn't see
her at Pomariu.
No cross-examination.
Iicdirect: This was in Newberry
county, State of South Carolina. Have
never seen her slnee and would not
know her if I would see her.
By Mh Blease:
L. L. Boiick sworn, says: XJve at

she was ever brought before aljy trial
justice?not while I was present. My

bad, and if she was ever brought there
don't'know it. Lovet Williams had
cooked for Mr. Blair, but when house
was broken in Mr. Blair was not at

there about month or six weeks.
Never have seen her since.

thick. Didn't see anybody else, in
the evening saw buggy pass my house
with two meu in it in road toward

who they were. After shooting never
heard anything more. Have nrver

Magistrate Cunningham said at ike
conclusion of iha aigument: UI w#uld
like to say ih*t thw att*raeys for ths
defendants do not think there is &!
pr;>bafe!e ca>.5^ of guilt, bat I do think
there i> a probable cause of guilt, and
therefore I send :he case up."
The defendants, through their attorneys,
gave notice tbcy -would make appiication
for bail, and it seems from
the evidence so far adduccd they
should have little trouble in securing it.
I was seriously a-ffiicled with a cough

ilr. Abraham F. Gooding, of Charlesten,
was killed in a runaway aceident
in St. Joseph, Mo., on Thursday last
Mr. Gooding was well known here,

Eiavmg Dees esga^wu. iu me gives uusancss
for many years, at oie time being
is partnership withE. F. Mila*,-afterward
5 appointed trial justice by Governor
Tillman. The St. Joseph Gazette
of Friday last gives theaecoant
of the fatal accident:
About two wee^s ago the deceased
came to this section to spend the summer
with his relatives hereabouts. His
son, Sterlie, awompanied him. Th?
father and son intended to spend the
summer in the vicinity of St. Joseph.
For a few days previous to the accident
the two had been guests at Mr.
Brady's home and intended to visit
each of thair other relatives for a few
days.
Shortly after noon yesterday Mr.
Brady aud his relative were driving
along Sylvauie street near Fourteenth,
en route to the home of 'he former.
TDhev were iu Mr. Brady's buggy.
When at tne oouoca or me nui at mai
poini the horse became frightened at a
passing street ear and at once became
auruly.
The animal started up the hill toward
Fifteenth street at a furious pace,
Mr. Brady finding himself utterly
powerless to lnld the wild animal in
check. A largi number of people
were on the street at the time, it being
at the dinner hour and many persons
were eye-witnesses to the accident.
Sylvanie street is very rough near Fifteenth
and the light buggy swayed
frightfully from tide to side, the horse
at every moment becoming more
frightened and increasing its speed.
Jast at the intersection ef Svivanie
and Fifteenth streets both Mr." Brady
and Mr. Gooding were thrown ?o the
pavevnent with great vioiauac. Mr.
Brady, who was driving, was dragged
for soma distance. lie was braised
painfully all over his body, bat is n?t
at all seriously injured. The older
man did not fare so well. For some
time after he struck the hard pavemeat
Mr. Gooding lav perfectly still, and
the bystanders thought he had been
instantly killed.
Immediate steps -wore taken to attend
to the injured man. A'tarriage
vra? summoned and physicians hnrried
to the scenc of tnc accident. Mr.
Gooding was taken into the residence
of Mr. Joku Andrews near by, where
he was car^d for as well as possible
under the circumstances. Ue regained
sousciousucss soon after being taken
into the honsc. Upon tba advice of
tho attending ntnfiician the injured
man was at ance removed to the hos
pit
An examination showed that his
right hip cad been dialoeated and that
he had a stv?r? wound on the liead?

HOBSOX'S CHOICE.*
y>"V> r<?r& TFbrW.
Whenever the question What is to
be done for Hobson? is put to the
proper officials at Washington, the
reply has invariably been: "We are
waiting to find out from him what he
wants."
That is, a hero is to be requested to
put a price on his heroism, to estimate
carefully tbs worth of his own galIan
try.
At first irlance the proposal seems
generous. On second thought it begins
to take on an aspect of sordid
vnlgarity. It invites Hobson to make
a second self-sacrifice by modestly
asking for some very little reward?a
day off "to see nis Belle Aorore,
perhaps. Or it compels hira to pat
himself forward as a conceited hero
who tkinks he ought to have the earth
and the moon also as a rev^rd.
That is, the officials at Washington
threaten this hero with a true proverbial
"Ilobson's choice"?a choice of
evils, a choice that is no choioc at all.
Clearly, the only way in which this
matter of just recognition canjproperly
and decently be left to Hoblon is by
arranging two distinct, and definite
scheme? of promotion and letting1 him
chcose between them.
And incidentally it may be well to
remark that the World has information
of the- plans of certain enemies of
Hobfon at Washington, and that they
will only mate trouble lor themselves
if tbey insist upon the proverbial
"Hobson's choice" instead ot an honest,
generous American choice for
IJobson. Perhaps the officials who ar?
now being deceived by these same intriguers
will realize from thi3 hist
what sort of busiuess they are in danger
of aiding.
