All they need is a little fertilizer?a

Scott's Emulsion is the right
treatment.
Fertilizers make thingsgrow.
That's just what Scott's Emulsion

The Soldier s Home.
I ?
Adjutant General Flovd is
making investigations with a view
to learning approximately the
number of veterans who would
go to the soldier's home should
one be established. Col. Crittenden,
the chairman < f the pension
board, thinks that n?t *>?
r .....v 1/wt, IHU1C IIIUII
twenty in the county of Greenville
would avail themselves of the
home, and they would do so
mainly for the medical attention
they might receive. As a general
thing the indigent veteran will
prefer to draw his little pension
| and remain among his old friends
and comrades. We are not opposed
to any provision thut the
State may naUe for the comfort
of needy veterans, hut we doubt
the advisability of establishing at
this late day a soldier's heme.
The lust veteran will have gone to
his long home before many more
years, and the institution can
hardly be put into proper working
order before the number of
those for whom it may he estab
lished will he so diminished that
the State could provide for them
far more economically and acceptably
by increasing the amount
of their pensions and letting them
remain among their friends.?

i
Speeial to Greenville New*.
Columbia, S. C., Oct. 6.?The
Stute supreme court h?s just
rendered a moat important decis (
ion relative to taxation. It holds j
that county beards of commission
have the light to fix and collect .
~ <
taxes for county purposes or in (
other words it holds "That the
power to collect the taxes for the
subdivision of the State is conferred
by the constitution upon ]
the fiscal authorities of such subdivision
whether the tax was f
created by any act of the general ^
assembly or by the said corporate .
authorities under an act of the j
General Assembly." j.
The county commissioners of ^
Oconee imposed an additional levy ,
of one half mill for road tax. The ,
<
Southern railway paid under pro ' (
test. The Circuit Judge held
that the tax levied by the county ; ,
board was illegal. The Supreme
court reverses the circuit court
and holds that the county has the
right to impose an additional road ,
tax to the one mill for load tax

Trial of Sheriff North. |
Much Feeling Again9t an Officer I
Who .Did ilia Duty.
Asheville, N. 0., Oct. 2 ?The
preliminary trial tf Sheriff .1. L.
North, of this county, charged
with the murder of Walter Blunkenship
at this place August 22
last, began today. The trial will
be conducted under military guard
uf 50 men of the Third regiment,
under command of Col. E. L.
Higdon. At the trial of dim I
Brown, a negro who criminally
iss^iltcd a woman, a posse of
men under diiec'ion of Sheriff
North tired into a mob supposed
to have been formed for the pur
poHe ??f lynching Brown, fatally
injuring Walter Blankcnship, and
injuring two others of the assem-1
bly. A warrant was sworn out i
for Sheriff North by II. (\ Blank- j
jnsliip, the father of young Blank5iiship,
and North was placed under
arrest. In the meantime
Brown was legally executed here
under a military guard from Bir- ,
miiigliam, by Deputy Sheriff,
['row. The feeling against Sheriff i
North has been intense at times. 1
The trial promises to consume j
lbout ten days' time and it is
probable the militia will remain
here.
