Governor Tillman on the Situation?The State Will Fight j the Corporations to the Bitter End j Belief Granted One Boad. ? * "ii T _ j e<; T&e order issuea dj .juuge 01 uiunton in Charleston on Monday last, restraining Sheriffs from "interfering" with railroad property in South Carolina in the hands of receivers, I has added much to the perplexities of the already tangled railroad situation in this State. Trains were tied up, or, literally speaking, chained down in Abbeville, Aiken, Anderson and Newberry counties by order of the Governor, and they are still firmly shackled, all be cause the railroad companies would j not pay the taxes as assessed, witn penalties for delinquency attached. The writs issued by Judge Simonton did not have any effect upon the j Sheriffs in the counties named, as j they declined to release the property j levied upon. Sheriff Tyler of Aiken county was i boarding a train for Augusta yester- I day morning when the deputy mar- j ! shal served his writ upon him, but j I so little importance did Mr. Tyler { 1^1.? attacn to mat ne iioxiuiiaiauuj pn-1 ceeded'on liis journey. The Sheriff of Anderson county j was so bttle affected by Judge Si monton's order that be has advertised i the engine levied upon for sale. The situation in Abbeville and Newberry counties remains unchanged, viz: the Sheriffs are still holding on to what they have. Governor Tillman held a long consultation with Attorney General Town send and Assistant Attorney j General Buchanan yesterday, and Judge Samuel W. Melton was also called into the legal council. The result was that the Governor was strengthened more than ever in his j determination to compel the railroads | vnenaljfl^; arrached. The levies in question are for amounts below $2,000, and the cases are, therefore, not within the jurisdiction of the United States Court, as was decided by that tribunal in W^uington only a few days ago. What Judge Simomon bases bis action upon is, therefore, a conundrum, which will be answered only when the matter is again brought up in I court. Governor Tillman yesterday telegraphed the Sheriffs and Treasurers j against whom Judge Simonton issued ! his restraining orders to hold the j property levied upon, and to pay no ! attention to Simonton's orders. He advised the officers in question to submit to arrest if force was em ployed to wrest the property from them?assuring them that their cases would be promptly carried to the United States Supreme Court on habeas corpus proceedings. Evidently the Governor's instructions strengthened the county officers in their positions, if, indeed, any encouragement was needed to keep them up to the scratch in the performance of their duties. When seen by a Register reporter, Governor Tillman said: "The present purpose of the State is to hold the property levied upon at all hazards, and Judge Simonton ruay go ahead and do liis worst. The county official* have been advised to this effect already. 'T consider that Judge Simonton is in contempt of the State government of South Carolina, and it is hoped be will act in such a manner as will enable us take the case to the United States Supreme Court at ' ' ? i. ...1 I \\ aSBinglon Wliuoui ueiay, ?uae ? * 1 we will, I feel confident, be able to prove him in such contempt. "It is hoped he will arrest our Sheriffs, so that habeas corpus proceedings may be at once instituted in the Supreme Court. If we are wrong, and the State cannot collect the taxes as assessed, with penalties attached, the sooner that is known the better it will be. "The Sheriffs have been telegraphed to hold the fort at all hazards, and not.surrender the property. "We believe the State Las certain rights, and we desire to test the case as soon as possible, and with the least trouble possible. "Until Judge Simonton renders i his decision 011 the 20th instant, no | further levies will be made, and all subsequent movements will depend j upon that decision. The United States Supreme Court 1 j has just told Judge Simonton that , j he has no jurisdiction in any cases , j where the amount involved falls bei | low $2,000; and as all the cases at issue, wherein we have made levies, | are for amounts less tliau that figure, I we will resist his tyranny or igno' ranee, which ever it may be, and we 1 will try to bring the matter to a i i'oeus. so that our rights will be es; tablished." When the Governor was reminded I that the railroads base their present ; actions upon the fact that they are ! in the hands of receivers appointed | by the United States Court, and that j Judge Simonton's orders are likewise founded, he said: "We will whip him (Simonton) on that, too. All we want him to do is to take a hold, and then I will take a stronger one, which will land him in J the United States Supreme Court. "If he does not arrest our officers we will levy upon every road in South Carolina that has not paid its | taxes, "What we wish is to get the case into the United States Supreme Court as quickly as possible, and we are determined to see the matter through to the end. "I wish they would arrest me. I am the only man that is in contempt of court; I issued the orders to the Sheriffs and Treasurers to proceed with the levies, and they were only acting under my instruction and obeying the laws of the States which define their duties." The Governor was visited during the day by Sheriff Scarborough of Darlington county, who desired ino %/ structions regarding the Carolina, Sumter and Northern Railroad, which company desired a little further time for paying its taxes. This accommodation the Governor granted on the ground that the com ? n'flo n/->f + vnr? or in 1U tjUCDllUU *?ao XJ \JV vv fight against the payment required by the State. The Sheriff of Berkeley county yesterday stopped a passenger train on the Charleston, Sumter and Northern Railroad at Eutawville, and chained down the first and second class coaches, levying upon them for unpaid taxes. This, of course, caused.great trouble and inconvenience, as the train was stopped on the main line, thereby blocking all ?the city in the following telegram: Sumter, S. C., Feb. 7, 1893. ,Gov. B. R. Tillman, Columbia, S. C.: The Sheriff of Berkeley county this morning attached the first and second class coaches on our mail train from PregnalTs to Gibson at Eutawviile. I offered him an engine and one coach that was on the side track if he would not interfere with the passenger train. He refused to accept them, and chained the coaches, effeci _.IT_ 1.1. .1.: II i many ujocisaug an uauiu un mc iuau until tbe matter cmi be settled. I am expecting funds daily to settle all taxes, and have given other Sheriffs ample property to protect themselves until matters can be settled. I have no desire to fight the case, but think ihe Sheriff of Berkeley county, in completely blocking traffic and the mails, is going beyond your instructions. Can you arrange with the Sheriff so that we can open the road? Kindly advise. (Signed,) % J. H. Averill, General Manager. Governor Tillman showed very plainly in his action in this matter that he is not at all disposed to im pose the least hardship upon the railroads if they evince a disposition not to antagonize the laws of the State. He is, on the other hand, quite willing and ready to extend to them all the accommodation in his power if tliey show an intention to pay their honest taxes to the State. The Governor's reply was as follows: Columbia, S. C., Feb. 7, 1893. J. H. Averill, G. M., S. A N. 11. R., Sumter, S. C.: Will order Sheriff to .open line and give you time to pay taxes. yrr -i \ t> t> rr . . .. n ^oignea; x>. i\. \ju\.

C., Feb. 1.?What j appears to be a case of faith cure i was revealed here today. For eightI een years Mrs. Anna Eliza Tutt has j been a helpless paralytic. During I this time she was attended by the J leading local physicians, who pro nounced her case incurable, and the advice of prominent specialists in various parts of the United States has been taken without any effect. Mrs. Tutt is the wife of a printer and is 41 years of age. She was paralyzed iu October of 1S75. After the doctors announced that they could do nothing for her, a mesmerist was brought in to try his skill, but she said she had no faith in that and the idea was not put into effect. , She was then told that she could never walk again. This did not depress her spirits. Mrs. Tutt says that she realized that "We walk by faith not by sight" and she put her ' trust in the Almighty and prayed continually to the end that she might ' be spared for some wise purpose. She was one in whom faith had become a passionate intuition. She ' said that a well known faith cure minister called on her and told her 1 that Christ could heal her. then and ^ that she must get right up and walk ^ * i at once. I "I have got to lie here and do His will," said she, "and if I am faithfuL ] when His time comes, He will either "1 put me on feet or take me to Heaven. I can bring my friends to witness that I always felt that I was to be made whole again for some good work. I read the Scriptures all the time. The Bible has been iu3r greatest comforter, and but for it I would have given up. In all my distress I tried to remember what the Saviour said, 'Let not your heart IIMiOUmcu.-. -Ill; J .y ? r t" believe also in me." j | + "Mondav night before last," s*id Mrs. Tutt, "I had a dream.

The peach tree, as a rule, receives less pruning than any other fruit j tree, while it needs more. As is well | known, it produces its crop on the ! wood of the previous year s growth, and as the terminal buds are most inclined to push, the height idj creates year by year, until in time the tree has but a few long branches ! stretching away up, or out, with ! leaves and fruit, at the top only. I Instead ot this, the tree, by correct ft pruning, can be kept in good form rather low and round headed, or spreading, all the limbs fairly within reach, with the fruit evenly distri buted and easy to gather. The pruning, which should be done annually in spring, consists in cutting back the previous season's shoot, removing one half in length, and, in addition to this, after the second or third year, cutting out about one tenth of these shoots as they become to numerous. Three things are to be gained by this: 1. Keeping the top of the tree in proper shape. 2. Maintaining a regular supply of bearing wood. 8. Reducing the crop of fruit, and thus saving the tree from the bad effects of over bearing, and adding to the size and quality of the fruit allowed to remain. The time for the work, as stated above, is in the spring, any time before they are in full leaf, but a moderate pruning, even when the leaves are fully developed, is better than not to prune at all.

B., I clean the whole table, so to speak." 1G. Gold Dust Cotton. ! j Smthern Cultivator. ' i Believing it is our duty to let the ; light there may be on us shine, I : wish to avail myself of the columns i of the Cultivator, the best Southern I agricultural paper, in delivering to i my brother farmers what I believe i j to be a valuable message. Planters are all more or less famij liar with the improved varieties of j cotton that have been long in geni eral use. The Peterkin, the "Weli bora's Pet, the Her long, etc., have | been tried in nearly every com in ui nity and have gained more or less I j popularity. Oue of tbo latest claij mants in this section is the '"Gold Dust." And I firmly believe that it works an advance over all other varieties as great, if not greater, than has ever been made at one bound by any cotton. I believe that it is the j best cotton ever planted. Only one year ago my attention was first called to this cotton in such ! a way as to induce me to investigate it. Having seen a letter from the manager of the South Carolina ex periment station at Columbia, in which he cave his experience with I this cotton, I wrote him. He replied very fully, describing his experiment and conclusions and advising me, if able to do so, to buy seed for my i whole crop. He said thao it was I kiby far the best cotton he had ever seen." On one-half acre only half manured, he made a good bale. This and all his other varieties came up late in June, and the Gold Dust had, when the frost came October 8th, matured every boll; while the other varieties were caught with about one half their crop unmade. X 1UI ILiCl VUMW Vfw.j man that had ever tried the Gold Dust, had for it only praise of the highest kind. So, though I had, never seen a stalk of nor a man who had decided to buy enough seed to plant my whole crop. "A rash venture, do you say? I reasoned that if it was only half as good as its friends said, I would make twice as much as I had ever done with the Peterkm or price. To secure the best, I bought seed two and three years old, planted separate from any other cotton. When mv cotton besran to put on " ' / w ? forms, it attracted attention. Neighbors from far and near came to ste it, and every one said that he had never seen anything like it. Tie limbs came out right at the ground, grew quite long and averaged at least one for every inch of heighth cf stalk. The forms were very closely crowded on every limb and all the way from stalk to end of limb. Stalks three feet high with 200 to 300 forms were common enough. "When the bolls began to near ma- 1 turity, every one was struck with their great size. Mr. Gailliard com J it tu: pareu It ill iuis respcuu nuu 1110 uojucx varieties, and found that while the others took about 100 bolls to make a pound, 100 bolls of Gold Dust gave the unprecedented yield of one pound ! ten ounces. How about the yield of lint? The seed are large and the lint no longer than unusual, so one would hardly expect an unusual, yield. From thirty-five to forty per cent, is about what is claimed for it; yet I see from all quarters much better returns than that. One report gives fortyfour. The fine body and longness of lint is another valuable feature. I sold it ' '1 i. - ? ?A i ? 10 me most expeneuccu uujci iu uumter, one of the best judges in this State, and he said that it had the best body he had ever seen on any cotton. \111 have sold has brought the top of the market. The Gold Dust will make a crop in three or four weeks less time than any other I know anything about. These, then, are the points in which the Gold Dust has proved its superiority to all others: Quickness of growth; sueness of crop; earliness number and length of limb; number and size of bolls; ease in picking; turn | out at the gin; fineness and toughness of lint; ability to stand bad weather; large yield per acre. H. W. B. Mayesville, S. C. - Why Our Farmers are Poor. ( Union Times. In conversation with a successful j horse drover the other day, he said j th:t every year in this county there ' was at least an average of one hun l j ? j ?i i urt'u mili liiij iuuico The question is, what becomes of , those one hundred and fifty mules j whose places are filled by new one? Why can't and why don't the farmers of this country raise their own mules? They can be raised cheaper than $15,000. That is about the sum expended for mules every year. You can see how a crop of mules worth $15,000 eau bo readily sold every year in this county, and every farmor knows that if, wonlrl not, oost $50 to raise a mule worth from $100 to $150, which are about the prices they bring. "Would it not be better for the farmers to raise their own farm animals and more of the necessities of life on the farm? Take, for instance, the bacon that is bought by the farmers. That will be one of the largest items ofexper.se the farmers will have to contend *11. -Ll. ' T>? * 1 ft wnu inis year. joacoju is iiuw cents a pound, and the chances are that it will continue to go up until it reaches perhaps, 15 cents. Farmers can raise their own meat at 3 cents, and with a little labor can raise their own mules at from 50 to To per cent, less than they can buy them. We know a young man who last TOdv Tin n flrnn linrse farm, raised enough corn to furnish his farm hands and stock, and had some to sell. He also raised nearly enough meat, at very little cost, to feed every hand on his place; and now has a good bank account. His cotton crop was almost clear profit. Try it, farmers, and see if you won't be more independent, and have less to pay at the end of the year, and at the same time Lave more ready casn. It is nonsense for farmers to talk about being imposed on by other classes, or looking to politics or politicians to better their condition, so long as they continue to depend upon one single crop for everything and exchange that crop for their farm stock and supplies. It is like swapping dollars, only worse for the farmers, for one-half the time they don't get 75 cents in exchange for tneir aonar.
