FAIRFIELD HERALD W ISBOB O1 J0. . ENL DS, Editor, Wednesday Morning, larch ,151876 'The Lancaster L4gor mention 'that the regular republicans in Cu lumbia have mad out a partial slat< of candidates they intend putting i the field in the next campaign. hero it is : For governor, ). H. Cham - borlain, republican ; for lieutonant 'governor, J. B. Kershaw, ,domocrat for abtornoy-goneral, R. B. Elliott )publican ; for stato troasuror, le. A. Tretsholm, democrat. The president has appointed Judge Taft:, of Cinnoinnati, to sue coed Blkftap as secretary of war. Who and what Mr. 'l'aft is, nobody soems to know, and everybody is anxious to ascortain. President Grant certainly has a knack of -sur prising people when he makes in important appointmeht. Wo hope Mr. Taift will turn out all rig lit. The Soliool Funds. 3y teforence to a table of secloo ttut a published elsewhere, it wil be eeen that Fairfield county i adjudged entitled to $3,342.05. The taxable property in the county I. stated in the auditor's estimato foi the last fiscal year to be $4,276,034; and a levy of two Mills---the regulai state tax for public schools-would produce $8,552.06. It will ho secn. thorofore, that by the unronusonabl( and unjust method of apportion ment now pursued, the county re ceives much loss than half of the sum paid by the people for the sup. port of the schools. The best plan would be to keep the levy foi schools in the county, just as th< touity tax of tlhree mtills is rNtaineul. This would e'ncourhgo the lpeophe to establ.ish and( n:intfai sc whoolh ill every neighborhood, and make t hem utclh reabor to hear their share of the burden of taxation.
