Z niiiiiiiMiiiiiiimiiiiirr DORI To the Taxpayers of Pickens and Wise Tov/Dships. I desire to call your attention to a clause in a letter addressed to you by "Croft & Tillman" in the Ecgefield Advertiser and the Ed gefleJd Chronicle of Jan. 31st, in reference to the bonded indebted ness of Pickens and WiBe Town ships, which reads as follows: "Although the legislature of 1898 passed an act to make a levy which would have raised about $175.00, the County Auditor failed or refused lo put it on his books, although he promised the Hon. J. Wm. Thurmond that he would do so. This left us with absolutely no funds with which to continue the fight, although we did so at our own cost. The levy for 1899 will raise not quite $250.00." It is my purpose to say to you that the above statement is incor rect and misleading, and possibly intended to lead th* tax-papers of Edgefield county to believe that I have "failed or refused" to do my duty as County Auditor. This? however, I am glad to leave to the honest decision of the people. There was au act passed by the legislature of 1898 allowing a levy of one-half mill on the property ol Pickens Township for the purposi of fighting the paymeut of certair railioad bonds if so decided by thc people of said township, whict levy would have raised aboul $250.00 instead of $175.00. Not withstanding the legislature die levy such a tax, I did not put it oi the tax books, and why? Because by not doing so I did my duty bj complying with the requirement! of the law by which an auditor ii governed. This act was incorporated in tb general supply act, and thereby i became the duty of the Comptrolle General to give notice of such t the County Auditor and order hit iiiiiiiiiiiliiiiiiiiiniiiiiiiiiniiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiKwiiitt ived our supply of LAN- I N SEED foi 1900.

[ llimilllHUIIHIIIHIHHii(|IM(llll|i|llllll""milrmfl to put the same on the tax books, which he failed to do. I put on all the tax levies that I [ was properly ordered io put on, and was 3afely cautious not to do what Croft & Tillman and J. Wm. Thur mond ordered and demanded. The matter of putting on tax levies is not left to an Auditor's opf:.on, therefore, I made no prom ! isb othur than to comply with the [law; and bad I failed todo my dutv in the above case I would have been "mandamused," as Mr. Croft threatened, and would have been sued on my bond, as Mr. Jas. ; H. Tillman threatened. Now, if thepe gentlemen have discovered that they cauuot defeat the payment of these bonds, and that the wiser plan is to accept a compromise, they should say so, and not try to throw any blame oo an Auditor who has done his duty. The levy for 1899 . raised about $450 instead of $250. Vfiry respectfully, J. B.HALTI WANGER, County Auditor.

Blacksburg, Jan. 31-At a recent meeting of our citizens for the purpose of voting a tax for graded school purposes, it was shown by the trustees, that on account of a gradual increase during the year of the numbe- of pupils attending the sohool, it would probably be necessary to employ another teach 1er. A levy of four mills was voted with only six votes in opposition. Under the present abie manage ment of Superintendent Cameron with his splendid corps of assist ants. Miss Moore, Miss Chapman and the Misses Chapman, the school has attained a high degree of proficiency and prosperity. Our city council recently passed an ordinance exempting from tax ation for a period of five years, all manufacturing enterprises, with a capital of $20,000 and over, that should be built withiu the incor porate limits. The ordinance W^E unanimously ratified by the citi zens at an election held for thal purpose. ALL WOMEN . ? ? Suffering from female troubles should try tba ,70ld Time" Remedy, 7 > It has no equal.

In the Senate, on the 29th accordance with previous anpot meut Mr. Tillman spoke upon Philippine question. Hi* .discu ion of the subj?ct was general. Mr. Tillman deprecated thei< that a man is disloyal to tn? ? if he declares his belief thap p s?cution of the war in the ?hil piues is disloyalty to the denla tion of independence, and said was "ready to locate the respor, bility for the (blood that baB bi spiled. "I impugn no man's motive he said, "but whether the preside be most to blame or whether 1 crime rests on his dupes ano!: si servient party dependents I si with all the emphasis of my natu that I and none of those who vot against the treaty are reiponsil for the spiling of one drop of t innocent blood that has been stu and I will not endure patient and without resentment any su accusation." Mr. Tillman then discussed length the race question as it relaf to the Philippines, in the course which he expressed strong diese from the statement made recent by Senator Morgan, that the ch war was precipitated by deaigni politicians who desired to thru the negro with social and politic equality upon the whites of tl south. Scouting the charge that the Fil pinos were not capable of self-goi ernment, he said: "If the Filipino leaders and the followers, those men of affair men PO strong in the faith of tl right of men to govern themselvt after our great example, tba although illy armed and withoi artillery, it has required 'B?x.1 thousand American troops over year to drive them from the fie] and even yet they have not surrei dered, but have adopted a guerrill warfare-if these are not fit f< self-gevernmeut under our kind! tutolage let me ask ot those Repu I licans here who injpart are respoui ble for it, and who were and ai now in absolute sympathy wit it, how dared they give the contre of southern States into the hanc of negroes as being fit not-only 1 govern themselves, but also t govern white men? If tl Filipinos are children, whttt wei and are the ex-siaves of the south How dared Republicans appeal t the northern masses to compel th south to grant the negroes a frc vote and a fair count when it it volved negro rule pure and simple Were the fruits of the war mei Sodom apples to be turned to ashe in such a brief span? Are the 13ti 14th, 15th amendments to be null: fled in their very essence becaus they failed of their purpose in th south? Are they fo^ home, us only? Is the flag to become agaii a flaunting lie' and float over military despotism, first in th Philippines and later at the home Was the memorable conflict be tween slavery and freedom- use less? Have we gained nothing Is the commercial greed whicl dominates in our councils an< coerces the president to do hi bloody and dirty work to make o the constitution a new 'league witl death and a covenant with hell' ii the interest of oppression akin t< slavery? In order to do all thea things, must we camp outside tt?< constitution and give the old: inter pretation of the Southern slav* holders to the declaration of inde pence and nulify all precedent and decisions of our supremi courts? Did this nat.on offer U] of its best and bravest upon th< altar of liberty the blood of severa thousand men and spend and de e?.roy five billions of treasure thai we might have a 'government ol the people, by the people, ' for th( people,' to find that in the brie: span of one man's life the sacrifice was van , the civil war a mistake and that the colored race has nc rights we are bound to respect al home or abroad?" According . to Mr. Beveridge^ quotations from the Bible, Mr . Tillman said : "I have heard that , the devil can quote Soripture foi . his own purposes. Why, I cai: - quote Scripture myself (laughter) Verily, verily, I say unto you, Sen ator from Indiana (pointing hie finger dramatically at Mr. Beve I .ridge, who eat within a few feet ol i j him), "you cannot gather figs frone i thoms, nor grapes from thistles.' ( "If we mete out despotism and ?bayonet rule to that people, will it not be meted baok to us? It need v not be from a foreign souroe, and < it cannot be from a foreign source !j that the government by bayonet < will ever oppress the Arne ric ac !? people. Our danger lies in famil !| iariiing our people with the dea !? potic methods, in abandoning the i j American ideals and the principles < of our fathers. ! "The curse of bayonet rule will s come back to plague you as sure a; ! there is a God in heaven." * In conclusion, Mr. Tillman said : "1 protest against the continu. ance of this unholy war. The presi dent has declared that upon Con gress iests the responsibility. He shirkf the burden of his mistake and endeavors to shift it to our shoulders. Ler. us give those peo ple a government of their own, the only self-government, in whatever form they might select, and be rid of the burden as well as the shame which muRC be ours if we do not. Let "is protect them against out side interference and in a small part compensate th^m for the wrongs we have done them. "In the name of Washington, Jefferson and Lincoln, let us stop this war, which was a hideous blunder in its beginning. It ?B now a war of conquest, a crime in the sight of God and man."
