A dispatch to the New ^trk Sun
ays: “Several letters have been re
ceived here from residents of Cape
Cod. who said that they distinctly
heard the cannonading that took
place in New York daring the Dewey
celebration. It* sounded like the
rumbling of distant thunder, but con
tinued ht intervals for some time,
each time with about the same
amount of noise, and always from the
aame direction. At the Massachusetts
Institute of Technology, a professor
who is an authority on sound waves,
was asked If the saluting could have
been beard at so great a distance. He
replied that it waa not at all improba
ble, as in many cases sound had been
heard on the water ai much greater
distances than from New York to
?ape Cod, which are perhaps 250
miles apart. ”
It la not at all improbable that the
sound of cannon was heard in the
of Boston. During the
Southern States the

Prime Sumner yellow in lar^e
quantities waa sold in the New York
market last week for 30 cents per gal
lon when the highest price obtained
last year at this time was 22^ cents
per gallon.
So strong is the situation that the
trade generally is looking for 40 cent
oil before the first of next month.
The causes leading to the advance
this year are two-fold, the scarcity of
seed at home and the short produc
tion of olive oil in Italy and the Med
iterranean section.
The season is fully three weeks late
this year, and it cannot be said to
have fully opened even now. The
crushers through the South are com
plaining that they cannot get seed
enough to begin crushing, and up to
date not a gallon of new crude oil has
been offered on the New York mar
ket.
Seed is selling at twice the price it
■old at laat year. In Texas there have
^been sales as high as $18 per ton. de

mum price last year was $8 per ton,

The income tax law does not
amount to much in this State owing
to the provision which compels se
crecy on the part of State officials.
The law requires taxes to be paid on
on all incomes of $2,500 a year and
above, and leaves it practically to the
personal volitio* of each person
whether he pays the tax due or not.
As we have said it is impossible to
obtain any information as to who
pays an income tax, as the law im
poses a penalty of $500 fine and re
moval from office on any State of
ficial who gives any information on
the subject. This provision practi
cally almost nullifies the law as it af
fords tbe shelter of secrecy to many
who would pay if they knew that
their names were as open to the pub
lic as any other taxpayer’s. The re
sult is that the income taxes that are
paid, are paid by only a few cousci-
encious persons who recognize their
duty under the law and do it because
it is right.
More publicity is essential to the
success of this law. While the re
turns should be kept secret from the
public, who have no right to investi
gate the amount of M^Johi^Jpe’s
income, the^^ntfmes "of tnM^vho
pay taxes s
the public. It certa
P-
ful citizen, prepares him to become
an idler. Tbe little schooling hr gets
leads him to think he is fitted fur
something better than a common
laborer, and not knowing how to do
any’ kind of work for which some
preparation is needed, he*conteui«
himself with odd jobs of any kind of
light work, and oftener, and is satis
fied to pick up a living in any way
that offers.
Instead of the kind of education ne
groes are now getting they should be
given instruction in manual training.
The money appropriated for their
schools should be used in preparing
them for some useful trade or occu
pation. If, for instance, the negro
boys were taught something about
agriculture the chances are that quite
a percentage af them would become
successful farmers. The negroes
make very good mechanics when pro
perly taught, and they might even
be given a training that would make
tnem much more valuable servants
than they are.
One of the great needs of the race
is training schools for the girls. There
is a very great and a growing need
for competent servant girls. The ne
gro girls now-a-days who get a little
learning at the public schools are not
fitted for any kiud of employment.
They don’t know how to cook or sew
or to do general house work. Their
inclination is to do no work at all.
The money they get goes for clothes,
and their delight is to spend their
time in the streets, If there were
training schools in which they could
be taught to be cooks, dressmakers,
nurses and to do general housework
they would, in a little time, be ahun-;.
dred times better off than they are
now.
If the negroes were properly train
ed they would be able to command
steady employment and better wages
than now. There would be a demand
for their services in all parts of the
country.
One fact strikes those familiar with
the South. It is that the property
that is held by negroes has been ac
cumulated by the older negroes, those
who received their training in the
days of slavery. The inference to be
drawn from this statement is that the
negroes that have come to manhood
and womanhood since the war against
the Southeiu States are inferior es
as citizens to those who received their
training under the discipline of slavery
Assuming that this is the case, the
conclusion is that the negro is retro
grading. A generation hence he wil
be worse off than he is at present
and will be a burden on the commu
uity instead of a worker’.
STORY OF
SLAVE.
To be bound hand and foot for years
by tbe chains of disease is the worst
form of slavery. George D. Williams
of Manchester, Mich., tells how such
a slave was made free. He says: “My
wife has been so helpless for five
years that sbfe could not turn over in
bed alone. After using two bottles of
Electric Bitters, she is wonderfully
improved and able to do her own
work.” This supremo remedy for
female diseases quickly cures nerv
ousness, sleeplessness, melancholy,
headache, backache, fainting and diz
zy spells. This miracle working medi
cine is a godsend to weak, sickly, run
down people. Every bottle gu'
t^ed. Only 50 cents. Bold by

licly known that he has gone for

Roe, who may have equally
an income as the other,
only himself, to blame if his name
does not appear on the income tax
book. If the law is ever to aimiint
to anything the community will

knowing who pays this tax, and who
do not.
WHY IS AIKEN MISSING1
The attention of our County Super
intendent of Education is respectfully
called to the following extiact from
the Columbia correspondence of the
News and Courier:
“The county superintendents are
very slow in getting in their reports
on which the distribution of the dis
pensary profits Is to be based.
“The reports from the following
counties are stiJl missing: Aiken, An
derson, Beaufort, Chester, Darlington,
Edgefield, Fairfield, Georgetown and
Bpartanburg.
“The report from Georgetown has
been received and was in splendid
condition, but it is desired that it be
on the official form and under the
oath of the county superintendent of
education.
“It is very important that all of the
tardy counties be heard from at once.”
SCHOOL BOOKS FOR THE
SOUTH.
There was no more important work
that our boards of educatiou and
school teachers generally can do than
carefully examine all histories of the
United States and all readers present
ed by publishers for adoption in the
schools. There has been too much
laxity in this matter in the South,
and tbe result has been that books,
from Northern sources, which in
many instances contain untrue state
ments of facts and teach falsehood
about the Bouth, have been in general
use. The tendency, however, of late
through the influence < f tbe Confed
erate Veteran Associations, has been
to examine histories and readers more
closely, and to accept only those that
contain truth about our people. The
best histories we have seen lately are
Lee’s New Primary and New Scbool
History of tbe United States, pub
lished by the B. F. Johnson Publish
ing Company of Richmond. These
histories seem to be unprejudiced and
to present the tacts of our history
truihfull}', and in necessarily a con
densed shape. That portion relating
to the period from 1860 to 1865 con
tains nothing that can offend any
Northern reader, and nothing apolo
getic for the South, for the South has
no apologies to make to any one. We
learn that the State of Tennessee has
adopted these histories for its schools
and we think - it would be well for
South Carolina to do the same.
