?. - - Edgef ield Advertiser TITOS. J. ADAMS,.EDITOR WEDNESDAY, DEC. 18, 1S95. \ The Cuban war still continues. Gov. Evans has declined to al low Columbia its share in the dis pensary profits, on the ground that the city government has not done its duty in squelching the blind: tigers. . ! The constitutional convection raised the limit for paying poll taxes from fifty to sixty year?, but all Confederate veterans o i er fifty, years of age are exempt from the tax. Owing to the outbreak of measles among the cadets, Clemsan College was forced to close, last week, two weeks earlier than the usual date for the winter vacation. Allen G. Thurman, of Ohio, died at his home in Columhus last week, eged eighty-five years. He was designated by friend and foe alike, the noblest Roman of them ad. Congressman Talbert has in troduced a joint resolution enjoin ing ihe Secretary of the Treasury from the further issue of bonds and directing him to coin the seigniorage from the uncoined sil ver in the treasury, amounting to about $55,000,000." ' The tax?s in this township are 13 per cent less than they were last year. If this reduction is general and not confirmed to this bailiwick, it is oue of the feathers thct we have for some time been trying to stick in the reform administration cap. Prof. Hicks, the weather prog nisticator of St. Louis, predicts that the month of JaLuary will be a swinger j for cold, and advises people, even in the South to "pro qvide ountifully against a severe winter and great cold." This is good advice whether tho severe weather and great cold comes or not. . The State Board of Control has increased the price of liquor in dispensaries, very mu cb to the gratification of? everybody except those who want to get. drunk' on ten cents. We hope they will go **oJ?Ohi.s same line and con th ve L to increase the pried for in thu. is the approximation tb prohibition, and that, approximation is all we can hope for. An Important Matter. One very important matter to come ap at the next session of the Legisla ture, which meets on the 14th January next, is the matter of the funding or refusing to fund the $106,000 of State bonds alleged to have been owned and lost by the old defunct State Bank, ap plication for such funding having been j made by Samuel Lord, Receiver of said State Bank. This very stale claim of Mr. Lord, Receiver, has been pending a long while and has been passed upon ad versely by two successive Legisla tures; but not content with repeated |!downings" it bobs up serenely again and again. We have seen both reports of the committee appointed by.the House of Representatives at its last session. kThe majority report favors? and the minority report is adverse to the claim, and of the two, in our hum ble judgment, the minority report is unquestionably the sounder* and bet ter. J. Wm. Thurmond, Esq., of Edge field makes this minority report and it is a subject of congratulation, not only toEdgefield, but to the whole State that so sound a lawyer and'so honest a legislator holds the helm in this busi ness. We are satisfied that the Honse will adopt Mr. Thurmond's views of this whole matter and repudiate and justly repudiate the claim. Weather for November. Weather Observer C. A. Long, of Trenton, sends us the following data of the weather for the month just ended: Max. temp. 75; date 10th. Min. temp. 32? date 21s*. Mean, temperature, 55 8. Prevailing- wind directon, ll. N.
