Judge Ernest Gary is sick at
Hendersonville, N. C.
No town can improve or prosper
without a good school, without such
" D. D. D. may be written over its gates.
And President Bailey agrees to re
main in Edgefield and teach for five or
- ten years-if our people desire it, if
we give him a school house.
Mrs. B. Livingston, of Charles
ton? is visiting her sister, Mrs. R.
H. Govar, who is now slowly im
proving from a long spell of fever.
Oue-twentieth of one per cent,
tai to build a fine fifteen thousand
dollar college building. Where,
ohi where, are the Hebrew chil
dren?
Only fifty cents on the thousand
dollars worth of property, thal it?
what a tax to build a school house
means. It only costs you a half
a dollar.
Prof. Simeon E. Smith, of Williston,
is in town for the purpose of attend
ing the summer school for teachers.
Prof. Smith bas a fine school in Clar
endon county. .
Messrs. Dorn and Appleby, recent
graduates of the S: <*. C. I., have both
secured good schools in Edgefield
county-thus has Prof. Bailey secured
places for nearly all of his this year's
graduates-five out of seven.
A tax of half a mill on the hundred
dollars worth of property is only fifty
cents on the thousand dollars-and
this is the tax our people are asked to
vote, only fifty cents on the thousand
dollars of property you own, a mere
bagatelle, reader.
Big reduction in summer wash goods
at the New York Racket! Good Mus

sold at 10c, 12c and 16c, at Sn and 15c;
20c and 25c goods reduced to 1673'c; 7c
8c and 9c goods reduced to 5c and 6c.
Owing to ill health Prof. Bailey has
been forced to give up the superin
tendency of the Summer School at this
place. See bis card in another column.
Prof. Bailey ia an indefatigable worker
in the interest of the S. C. C. I., and
has injured his health thereby.

Fortune is said to knock once at the
door of every man; Sometimes we
don't recognize the old lady, don't
jump to grasp ber hand, she '.leaks
out-'' and we miss the opportunity for-,
ever. Fortune is knocking at our
doors now in the shape of an opportu
nity to build up a co-educational col
lege that will attract students and
citizens from all over South Carolina,
an opportunity not only to build up a
fine school, but to built up our ?own.
Shall we neglect so great an opportu
nity? If we are wise we will not.
Dr. Gwaltney has been in attend
ance on the B. Y. P. U. convention
which met in Richmond last week.
The following compliment to him we
clip from the Richmond Dispatch :
A DISTINGUISHED VI3ITOE.-One. Qf
the most distinguished visitors in
Richmond is Dr. Luther Rica Gwalt
ney of South Carolina. He bas spent
his life in religious and educational
work. It is no surprise to Virginians,
to know that Dr. Gwaltney is not only
loved by the people of Edgefield, where
he is pastor, but is greatly honored
throughout the Palmetto State as a
man of remarkable culture, high intel
lectuality and deep spirituality.
Big reductions at the New York
Racket in Fig. Duck und P. K. Straw
Hats, will sell regardless of cost. La
dies' ^1 Oxford Ties at 75c; $1.25 Ox
fords at fl; $1.50 Oxfords for $1.25. We
haven't all the sizes in these goods, but
what we have are genuine bargains, in
fact our counters are full of bargains
Come and see what we have as our
bargains are too numerous to mention
in an advertisement.
Jt cannot be possible that the cotton
factory and oil mill directory and in
fluences are being operated against
the school project. We say it cannot
be possible, because these industries
have received many kindnesses at the
hands of our people, not the least ot
which is the resolution of our town
council releasing them from taxation
for a period of ten years-a matter to
them and us of thousands of dollars.
We hope we have been misinformed
and that the factory and oil mil) and
those who direct them will be as stren
uous for the growth and prosperity of
Edgefield as though to the manor
born.* Let us bare peace and pros
perity.
Small, Blaynard & Co., of Boston, art
publishing short biographies of dis
tinguished Americans. The volumes
are convenient in size, printed in clear
type, and should become very popular.
We think them especially adapted to
use in schools and colleges, in connec
tion with the history of our own coun
try. The biography of Gen. Robert E.
Lee, which was sent us, we have read
with pleasure. It is written by Wm.
P. -Trent, a Virginian, who writes
with enthusiasm of the great Southern
hero; baying taken him to his heart
t'as a peerless exemplar of all that is
honorable and pure and exquisite and
noble in human life and character." It
is an admirable and authentic sketch
of our beloy?d Confederate chieftain,
recording the brilliant achievements
of bis military genius and accentuat
ing the wholesome influence of his
goodness, purity and practical piety.
Johnn ie Wat Cromer Kicks.
Johnnie W?fc;Cromer, colored,
some mouths ago, knocked a hole
in "Snowball's" head with a rock,
placing 4 Snowball" temporarily
hors du combat. "Snowball" is
another negro of the same color
with Johnnie Wat. Cromer was
arrested and placed in jail. While
there incarcerated be wrote a letter
to the Governor, which we print
below. It shows that
"No roerue e'er felt the halter draw
With good opinion of the law."
And this letter was sent to Solici
tor Thurmond for investigation of
the facts and a report. He finds
that Cromer has been tried and
sent to the chain-gang for thirty
days :
Edgefield, S. C., July 14, 1899.
My dear Bro. Wm. Elerbe :
Dear Seir-I take great pleasure
to write to you to let you know
that I have been put m jail ever
sen? e May the 10th jest for de
fending myself from a man be
having two pistols and a rouud
bladed long handled bouie knife
and I dideut have anything but
my hand. I am only lo years old
and reported it to the town Maer
und poor!ice, whose name is little
Rafe Scury, about this man folaw
iug me up and they refues to arest
bim or say a word to him. I was
told that he was posted by somo
of the white to git after me to fite
so that I would ttand a trial as I
never stood one in my life they
paid him to ha-e a row with me
and your onor forsee I have ast
and beged for a trial and they
sent, him off and tride 10 other
cases and would not try.myen.
Every time I ast for a trial he tels
me that his wife is sick aud wont
give me a trial. On Weue ay
morning I ast Mr Bell for a trial
and be fail to give it me and he is
no count bow and somebody somer
(count ort to be in his place. Bout
five or six Koons wi'ness what
they rested me bout and sent the
man off to keep from giving me a
trial and say they will give me
one when they git ready. I will
close by asking you to remember
Naught is a naught, five is a figger,
All for the white man,
None for the nigger;
Uakes no diffunce how nigger keep
bis time,
White man sure to bring the nigger
out behind; ?
Ain't it hard to be a nigger, nigger,
nigger?
Can't get your money when its due.
Johnnie Wat Cromer
I Tould like to know from you
' ' at to due.
Some Strong: Points.
MR. EDITOR: When the ispue of
bonds was first mooted, I was op
posed to" the movement. But on
reflection I have become fullv sat
the requisite funds for the erection
of the necessary school buildings.
To do this would result beneficially
to all, regardless of the- tax wfe
would have to pay. Real estate
would appreciate in value, the
merchants sales would increase,
the doctors practice would im
prove,and likewise the lawyers, and
there would be more work for the
mechanic and the laborer. The
school is a necessity, and the
bonds must be voted. To do or
act otherwise would be suicidal
policy on our part. Arti as Prof.
Bailey is willing and expects to
pay two-thirds of the tax levy by
way of rental for the buildings, the
taxpayers would not have to pav
more than half a mill, or 50c on
tin $1,000 to raise the other one
third of the tax. And one-half of
the taxpayers of the towu do not
own one thousand dollars worth of
property, and therefore one-half
the taxpayers of the town will not
have to pay 50 cents a year to se
cure the to-be grand Co-Educa
tional Collegs, and participate in
the future progress and prosperity ?
of our dear .old ?own, reeultant
from our splendid educational fa
cilities. Reader, ponder the sub
ject well before you conclude to
I vote against the bond issue.

Tax Exemption.
The State Supreme Court has
just issued what is evidently the
final order in the now celebrated
case of Garretson against the
Laurens Cotton Mills.
The city council of Laurens
passed a resolution that it would
exempt for a term of years any
cottou mill or similar enterprise
built in the limits, in order to
encourage such enterprises. The
Laurens Cotton M'\ was built and
oxpec^ ' jaded . exemption
under this resolution of council,
and council did not tax the mill.
Mr Garretson, a oltiaeu of
Laurens, brought au action claim
ing that the council of Laurens
could not, under the Constitution,
exempt the Laurens Cotton Mills,
and the Supreme Court has con
curred in this view and insists that
the mille will have to pay the
taxes.
In the opinion of the Court, filed
to-day, after giving the case and
the findings of the referee, who

0. Sheppard, Jr.
i
took evidence on the questions at
issue, the Com t says :
Upon this finding of facts by
the referee, and according to law,
the respondent is responsible -for
the year 1896 upon property valn?d
by the county auditor at $6,065, j
and for the year 1898 t^e
respondent, Laurens Cotton Mill",
is responsible for taxes assessed,
the year 1898,' upon its property
valued by the county auditor at
$235,000, but upon these findings,
of fact the relater has no right to a
nr ndamu8 compelling the Laurens j
Cotton Mill to pay any taxes to the j
city of Laurens for the year 1897,
for the relator during that year I
was not a taxpayer. It was was
with reference to this very con
tingency this Court, in its first j
decision, 32 S. E. Reporter, p, 699,
said: "If these things be tme"j
/*?un^ v.- - fovnaver in ?the
K?spOnaeUb U?ntijo a jauv.cu,v
desire to have the Couit reopen ice
discussion as to the duty of the ci ri
zens of Laurens not to insist upon
the payment of any taxes by said
respondent to said city, on the
ground of good faith, alleging-that
the mill was built in the city on i
reliance upon the good faith of
the citizens to carry out th?
resolution adopted by the city
council to exempt any mill which
would locate in the city from the
payment of all city taxes.
This Court is greatly pleased at
observing the keen sense of moral
obligations thus exhibited, but we
must be governed by the legal
obligations subsisting between
these partie3 litigant. As wo have
already decided, following in th*
wake of the decision of the action
of Germania Savings Bank vs town
! of Darlington, 27 S. E. Rep, 846,
there is no law authorizing an ex
emption of colton mills from
taxation by a simple resolution of
the city council of a town.
In theassessemeutof these taxes
we must be governed by the assess
ment of values made for State and
county taxation. These taxes
which we have allowed for the
years 1896 and 1898 can be easily
placed upon the books of the city,
clerk and treasurer, and when so
placed the assessments of taxes by
said clerk and treasurer can be and
must be had. The peremptory!
writ of mandamus is granted to j
compel the city council of
Laurens to assess the taxes
agauinst its co-responondeut
Laurens Cotton mills-for the
years 1896 and 1898, as hereinbefore
named, and then ;to compel
Laurnnst Cotton Mills to pay such
taxes for the years 1?96 and 1898.

Kindly permit us to advance
three cogent reasons why you
should use wine's in your homes :
1st. Boca USP, in addition to be
ing delightful stimulants, pure
wines-are the basis of nearly
every tonic preparation in the
world and are unexcelled to
build up the system and quiet
the nerves. . .
THIS IS FOR
HEALTH'S SJ{KE.
2nd. Because, in ninety-nine cases out of a hundred, whore
children become accustomed to the moderate use of wines on the
dining table and othetwise in the household, they never acquire a
taste for heavy intoxicants.
. THIS IS FOR JEf?PERAflCE SA.KE.
3rd. Because, the United States has facilities (climatic and in
dustrial) for making more wines than any other nation, and yet
Frtnce produce* annually 1,100,000,000 gallons to our 25?000,000. This
is an industry which, if fostered, would thrive mightily and give
employment to thousands.
THIS IS FOR PROSPERITY'S SAKE.
The Dispensaries all carry a full line of our Wines, and there is
danger of confounding them with others. We guarantee our goods
to ?jive satisfaction and, upon written statement that they do not, to
the Dispensary from whicb they were purchased, money will be re
funded. Try thase Wines and judge for yourself.
Very respectfully,
