ISSfcSSING RAILROADS FOR TAXATION
The State board of railroad
ts^Mfsors, at its meeting in Oolrtmbia
tliis week, made a big,
wise in the assessment o( rail j
mad property for taxation. in-|
?r *Hsing the returns of the companies
something over thirty- 1
itve million dollars. Tlie board's ,
iiyures are said to he seventy (
o1 all the railroad property in ]
"lie state. Inasmuch as other
classes ot property are supposed
to be taxed on a sixty per cent
basis, the action of the board
lias the appearance of discrimination
against railroads Assess- '
merits should be equalized as '
nearly aq possible regardless of
OA'nership of properly. Railroad
assessments have nodoubt been
too low. but it now looks like '
the board is about to k<> to the '
other extreme. However, the'
assessors will in a'l probability
do what is jii-t ami fair to all 1
interests when they meet auain 1
the latter put ot the month to '
liear appeals Iroin the railroad
companies.

ANOTHER CANDIDATE FOR GOVENOR.
In a card in Wodnesi lay's ,
Hate, Mr. Joel E. Brunson, the (
well known prohibitionist, an- ,
nounces himselt as a candidate ,
for governor 011 a "clean prohibition
p'alform." Mr. lirunson ,
concludes his announcement as (
follows: (
It is now too late to net an oruan
zed convention of the prohibi- 11
tlomsts of the State before the j
opening of the campaign. I have '
done the best 1 could to a d in <
giving the prohibitionists ol the <
State an opportunity to name
their own candida'es. 1 have not
sought by unfair means, or in
any other way, to shut off the
voice ot any prohibitionist, no '
matter how weak, in making the <
nominations; hut we have now ]
reached the point where some (
one must take up the work and |
press it vigorously, ami when
the campaign opens I shall be
there upon a clean prohibition '
plaiform as a candidate lor the \
Democratic nomination lor gov ,
ernor of the Slate.
The woods are now full of gu- ,
hernatoria! timber, represent- ,
inir all shades of opinion on the
liquor question, so that when the
campaign fairly opens and the
various candidates announce
their views, the voters will have '
no t rouble in selp M in a the in ?n ot
their choice, it that choice de
pends solely on how a candidate
s'ands on ll.e liquor problem.
