Edsrefield Advertiser THUS. J. ADAMS, - . - . . EDITOR WEDNESDAY, APRIL 7,1897. The phosphate commission have recently visited the works and dredges, and have reduced the royalty to 25 cents per ton on river | rock. A cyclone at Guthrie, Oklahoma, last week destroyed three-fourths of the town. More than a do.".en persons were killed and 150 badly injured. The home of the blizzard, the great Northwest, is 'now being swept by terrific cyclones that de molish homes and destroy many human lives. Tennessee's exposition will open at Nashville ou May 1st. Tho buildings are said to be marvels of beauty and the exhibits inter esting and wonderful. Another newspaper correspond ent has been killed in Cuba. C. E. Crosby, of New York, was shot a few davsago while watching a bat tle between the Spaniards and Cu bans. Thousands have been made homeless by the floods on the Mis sissippi river. The condition of the people of that section is pitia appropriation Congress as well as private contri butions bave been aeked for. State Treasurer Timmermai says, in reference to the expectei deficit in the State's finances, tba there will be money enough torui the government until Septembei when it will be necessary to bor row $100,000. He thinks the in come tax will add little to th treasury. Gen. Grant's mausoleum will li dedicated with imposing ceremc nies in New York on April 27tl Many who fought against him ha\ signified their intention to pay tribute to his memory by thei presence on the occasion. Mosfr the gallant Confederate, will figui in the parade. The trustees of Clemson Colleg have decided to continue the wor of holding farmers' institute These institutes will be held witl /\nf nnof tko-aAmw?i?nilt>-?-->-" nlty, who are experts in agricu tare, chemistry, horticultor dairying, and veterinary scienc will preside at the sessions.

Edgefiel should have a farmers' institu? this summer when tho crops ai laid by. Application ought to h made at once. WONDERFUL THINGS THA' ARE NEAR. The Philadelphia Press fort shadows the coming of the miller iom as follows : "Flying is solved. The princi pie is known. A mechanical ea pedient is all that is needed no\ to make it successful. Practica flight is to-day not more than fiv or ten years off. A glow worm makes light wit] about one three hundredth part o the force used in ordinary artificia light. When men know how t< make light as cheap, streets an< homes will be as light as day for J mere fraction of what light costi now. This ia near. Vacunm illa ruination without incandescence ii already in full operation, and in i year or two should* cut down th( price of light to a sixth of its cur rent cost, aud in five or ten yean light may be like water, turned or in every house at will. When these come, the only US? for gas will be for cooking--if thit is not done by electricity. Fae . tories, also, before many years, will be run by transmitted electric power. This has begun to be done, and in five or ten years wi.l be completed, and the factory fire and boiler will be a thing of the past, v The city of the future, and no very distant future, will have no trolley poles or wires and no horses. All movements will bo on rail by silent air motors or by horseless carriages equally silent. All pave ments will be asphalt. Unlimited light will be as cheap as nnlimitod water ?3 to-day. No coal will be delivered at private house, 'and ashes, street dust and dirt will be reduced to a minimum. With no factory fire and no kitchen and furnace fires, the air will b-9 as pure in the city as in the country. Trees will have a chance : houses be warmed and lighted as easily and cheaply as they are now sup plied with water." Now ? the time to subscribe for! tho ADVERTISER. ;i THE PROPER POSITION. There has been some doubt in the minds of Solicitor Trurmond's friends as to whether La would discharge the duties of hie office pending his trial for the killing of Mr. Harris, but he has very properly we think, concluded not to appear as prosecuting officer for the State until after his own case has been heard and deter mined. After consulting the Governor, Attorney Genera:, and others he has given out the fol lowing statement : "Being a prosecuting office the discharge of the duties of the officer might become embarrassing to me pendiog the decision of my countrymen on the charge to be preferred on account of the recent deplorable occurrence at Edgefield. I deemed it my duty to advise with the governor and attorney general as to the course to pursue relative to my duties as solicitor. The- !s no impediment in the law the performance of said dut by me, but a sense of propriety dictates that I ask the presiding judge at each term of court to appoint-a soliciter pro tem. to be compensated by me out ti my salary. After consultation with the governor and attorney general they agree fully with me. "While I rpgret sorely said unfortunate occurrence I feel perfectly justified before God and man in what I did, and do not be I ieve thai Lgii^jflw^^rnori i trie least when the facts a-e knowi "I will see that the interests c the State do not suffer, but I wi! uot conduct prosecution until m caHe is determined." WAR REMINISCENCES. Two Confederate Generals, Foi rest and Morgan. BY "KNAPSACK. Forrest and Morgan were bot cavalry generals, and both wei "raiders"-in fact both had mar things in common. Both practice that unique innovation in warfa: -originated by Forrest himself which was'to rush with the cavali upon some weaker body of tl enemy, hastily dismount and fig! as infantry, whip the enemy, parc the prisoners, and then mount ai r.ve away to other victories befo .elrecruits could arrive to reinfor the surprised Federals. As raide they respect tho enemy continual and terribly, so that both nam became proverbial and a tern not only to large bodies of caval g. |aud infantry, but also to t! "homeguards" and bushwhacker* However, there was great dissin T?I.D I. uian ui-TrovciTliirriSClUIl SI 1- j stemless, with some consequent roughness. His great passion w . to whip the enemy, rod what wi ' I not relevant to that-what did n make directly for that-he held light esteem. He accepted coura ir in hie soldiery as a matter of cour y scorned the fa.nt of heart, ai j summarily had all deserters shot . sometimes, it was said, "withe d judg r jury"-in other word ie with t court-martial. At to his personal appearanc he T ..3 something over six fe tall, but of medium weight; rath sinewy, with a desperate lookir mien, and withal careless as to b attire-that is, what refined socie' would call uncouth. Nevertheles he wa s as brave as a lion. One di some ladies of Mssissippi who he been sewing garments for the boj in gray, feeling a deep admiratic for this brave mau, presented hil with a pair of silver spurs mac of their own thimbles. A li ttl patriotic speech was made alor with the gift. For a moment tl stern General was overcome, H hands trembled, and a tear rolle dovn his cheek as he said, wit J fervor; 'Til wear 'em, and if tl . I enemy gets 'em it will be when m 11 heels are cold on the ground." * * ] j Gen. Morgan, known the natio I over as "Morgan the Raider," wai until the beginning of the war, gentleman of the blue grass regio of Kentucky. He was the owne of fine race horses-thoroughbred His residence was at Lexington to this day the great center o culture, education and aristocrat in that State. As a commander he was kin< and good to those who served unde him, as constituting his ramoui "Moreover he led them in sud true soldierly style, that the mern bera of his command stil still living are ever ready to exto his prowess his kind benovoleuce He was a man of fine physique of more than the average height and stately. His soldiers admir?e him much for his grace in the sad die. He had deep blue eyes, thai bespoke great sympathy for hu fellow-patriots. There was thit impressive thing about John H Morgan: he was a soldier with grace and chivalry as well as valor Gen. Morgan had many thrilling experiences. Among these wat his raid in Ohio (a venture which he beforehand had deprecated) and capture, imprisonment at Columbue, and his remarkable escape by th? assistance of hin fellow-captive, Capt. Thos Hines, whom Morgan nicknamed Count of Monte Cristo," because of his ingenuity in the exploit. Hines was a brickmason, and by bis skill effectp tn cutlet unJer the wall throuf? which he Morgan and sev eral i ier Confederates escaped. They immediately took a train and, singularly enough, Morgan was seated beside a Federal Major. The latter remarked, as they passed the military prison; "There is where the great Morgan is imprisoned." The General added : "Yes. and 1 trust they 'keep him as safe as he is now."' To which the Major assenting said "YeB" right heartily. After many n arrow escapes, they (Morgan{and Hines) made their way safely out of the enemy's territory. *** But Forrest was never captured. Another striking contrast we find in the manner of their deaths. Forrest passed quietly away, with his family around him, several years after the war being at the time a member of Court Street C P. Church, in Memphis. Morgan was killed at Greenville, Ea3t Tennessee, in a manner mo3t de plorable. He, with his staff, had taken up quarters at the house of a Northern sympathizer. A young woman, the daughter of he man in whose house they were quartered went hurriedly on foot to where the Federals were stationed and told them that Morgan was at her father's house.lmmediately the Yankees hurried to Greenville. Morgan's command was stationed out of town ; so when the enemy came up ho had no one with him but his staff. As tho Federals sur rounded the house several entered the room in which Morgan sal. Seeing there was no chance of escape, he threw up his lipids in surrender. But in a moment, a Federal soldier, flagrantly disre garding the usages of civilized warfare, took deliberate aim and fired, killing Morgan instantly. The Yankee's act is explained by the fact that a liberal reward had bee"? offered to the one who should kill the famous raider. Thus end ed t iie career of Mi is bril] cavalryman. r h re iv td re ry ie ht .le ii re ce irs ly es >r, ry he j." li na al as as ot in ge se id ut She Would be Consul. ty IS iy id 7B ?n m le le >g 16 is d h ie Mrs Chaplin Weed of Muscatint Ia, the first woman to apply for th position of United States con sn This progressive woman is desii ouB to represent Uncle Sam c his consul in Germany, and sb has as good backing as any ma who was ever sent abroad by th governmental Washington.

B. Craighead, t? Clemson. Washington, March 27.-Tb sensation of the tariff debate toda, was the onslaught made by Richar< son of Tennessee, upon the bill. H read from comparative statement prepared by the chairman of th committee and stated that the pre ent bill will tax the people a grea deal higher than even the McKin ley bill. Twelve out of fourteei nev schedules, he declared, coutaii rates higher than the McKinley bill. It is unfortunate, that the con Burners of the United States havt no agent to represent them in thc prepartion of the new tariff The bili as it passed the House it a New England measure, with e sop thrown to the [farmers in the shape of increased duties upou eggn hay, potatoes and other agricul tural products, but what is the good of an adpitional duty of 1 cent.a dozen upon eggs or auother dollar a ton on hay, or a duty of 10 cents a bushel on potatoes, when, under the new woo en schedule the farmer will have to pay $5 more for evory suit of clothes?
