And er soi] Intelligencer. PUBLISHED EVERT WEDNESDAY. J* F. CLINKSCALES, ) EDITORS AND 1 C. C. LANGSTON, S PROPRIETORS. XJEBJUS: ONE YE AK.$1 50 SEX MONTHS . 75 WEDNESDAY, NOV. 30, 1898. Every State that has adopted, bien nial legislative sessions is better gov arned than before-because it is less governed. South Carolina would no ?oubt profit by having biennial sessions .f her Legislature. A Pennsylvania grand jury has found a true bill against United States Senator Quay, Iiis son. Richard and Benjamin J. Haywood, ex-State Treas urer, for fraudulent transactions in connection with the People's Bank. Much stigma has been attached to Senator Quay's name for some time. The matter is no great surprise. Spain has accepted the United States' effer of $20,000,000, and at a joint ses sion of the peace commission in Paris last Monday afternoon consented with out condition to relinquish Cuba and ?ede Porto Kico, Guam and the Philip pine islands. The peace treaty will be signed to-day. Spain has acted ?wisely in surrendering the Philippines and has the best of the bargain. An exchange says the cotton crop of 1899 is now being bought and sold for less than G cents. August futures were quoted on the New York Exchange last week at 5.39; October at 5.41. What encouragement can the cotton grower extract from this? Eenters for 1S0G should refuse to rent land if they are forced to plant all cotton to the exclu sion of a supply of provision crops. There is no encouragement for a renter at the present price to rent land and be forced to plant a heavy cotton crop. With a heavy provision crop he may plant cotton only to pay rent, but not for a money crop. One of tho most remarkable incidents .f volunteer army life was experienced by one of the paymasters at Miami, Fla., recently. A member of the Sec ond Alabama regiment absolutely re fused to accept his pay, amounting to $35. He said he had entered the stfr ?ice purely through patriotism, and did not want any compensation. This being the lirst case of the kind, the paymaster had no precedent to guide him. AAfter some thought he drew a red line through tho name, indicating that the sum had not been paid. Should the soldier ever need his pay, the Gov ernment stands ready to settle the account. *_ _ _ The anti-cigarette law passed by the Jast Tennessee Legislature is declared constitutional by the Supreme Court of that State. The opinion declares that cigarettes are not legitimate articles of commerce, because they are wholly noxious and deleterious to health and therefore are not within the provision of the Federal constitution protecting legitimate commerce. It also holds that the conventional cigarette pack age is not an "original package" in the true commercial sense,*for which addi tional reason the Federal law has no application io this statute. The sale of cigarettes has been stopped by order of the police. The decision will likely be contested in the Federal Su preme Court, and will be watched with interest by the whole country. Let it be remembered that each bank check or draft, must bear a stamp. So must every bill of lading, mortgages, conveyances, leases, power of attorney, warehouse receipts, telegraph mes sages and express packages. In every case the stamp must be affixed and thc person affixing it must cancel it by writing across its face his initials and the date. The tax act provides that if any instrument or document specified as subject to a tax stamp is left un stamped "with intent to evade the pro visions of this act," the offender shall bc deemed guilty of a misdemeanor, and upon conviction shall be lined not exceeding $50, or imprisoned not ex ceeding six months, or both. Some people are very careless in affixing these stamps to the papers requiring them. Thejurors servingat tho present term of Court in Greenville deserve io be congratulated upon the faithful per formance of their duties. The jury system is the bulwark of civil liberty, but it is so only when stern duty sweeps aside prejudice and sentiment and makes naked evidence thc basis of its operations. When sentiment is allowed to overshadow duty and check the How of justice criminals take courage and it is only a question of time till all the | land is deluged with crime. However j much the sentences of the Courts may do violence to the tender susceptibil ities of jurors they should know that duty, aione, which brings swift, but just, punishment can give that security of person and property which is so much desired by every community. The juries of Greenville County should be made up of as good men as can be found in other Counties, and doubtless are, but from laxity of duty, or some other cause, thc increase of crime in that County within the last few years is to be deeply deplored. Itis gratifying io note that the es tablishing of a Juvenile Reformatory in this State is no longer a possibility but avery great probability. The matter took definite shape during the last session of thc Legislature, and a com mission was appointed and authorized to make investigations aud report. This commission with Rev. Dr. Brown, of Sumter, as chairman, is ready to hiy before the next Legislature the infor mation desired to lead them to proper legislation on the subject. The object sought in planting an institution of this kind cannot fail tornee tiie ap proval of the taxpayers of the State. Thc placing of youthful offenders along side of hardened criminals without an effort to reform them other than by the punishment inflicted by thc operations of penal statutes speaks badly for a people living in thc midst of Christian civilization. The long neglect of so important a matter-so great a debt due to humanity-cnn scarcely bc atoned for now, however willingly and promptly wc may ask through our rep resentatives in the Legislature, and to postpone tho mutter longer would amount lo little less than criminal neglect. Under existing statutes thc iron hand of thc law deals alike with young and old. Tiley arc sent to thc same prison, placed in the same cells, worked side by side and what the youth lacks in criminal education lie soon learns from his older companions. His inclinations to reformation meet with no encouragement: he realizes that lie is a vagabond and an outcast and for the want of an opportunity to bc once more trusted and tried be comes, indeed, a vagabond and a men ace to society. The Only Way Ont. MR. EDITOR : Southern, and especi ally Southeastern, farmers are into it, and there is only one way out. The very low price of their leading staple, cotton, will no doubt affect all, involve a great many and ruin financially a large number. Weil, in view ol" this condition of things, with no prospect of any improvement in the future, what is to bc done ? What is thc way out of such a dilemma? Some say buy more guano, fertilize more heavily and make more cotton to thc acre. It is very evident there is no get out on that linc, but a very good way to make matters worse. Thc fact is there is only one way out, and that has been so often urged on Southern farmers, and so little heeded, that it is hardly worth while to urge it again ; and that way is to make every farm self-sustaining. Do as the great Washington used to tell his overseers during his absence from Mount Vernon, "Buy nothing at all that you can make at home." If the flour, bacon, corn, oats, peas and hay, purchased Arith cotton in Ander son County could bc exactly estimated, it is possible that thc sum would equal, if not exceed, that of thc cotton crop. If this even approximates thc truth, how much more sensible would it be to raise these things and let the. cotton go. There is no usc arguing that the over-production of cotton has nothing to do with tlie price, when thc ignorant darkey in thc country knows that it has. Such an idea is utterly inconsist ent with all the rules of commerce from Adam down to McKinley. Supply und demand have ever been, no doubt ever will be, the controlling factors in com merce. By producing on our farms what we consume and thereby reducing tho acreage of cotton, there would be also a reduction of the amount of needed fertilizers which is and item of great importance. Look at the caught up condition of farmer, who this j'oar, purchased largely of guanos with thc prospect at least of t? cents cotton to pay for them, and now have to meet their obligations with 4 to.') cents cot ton. Can they bear up under such nu unequal burden .' They can't begin to do it-that is.just it in a nutshell. The sooner they stampede and get out ol' so unequal a race the bei [cr they will do and feel. More home-made manure, less cotton and more homo products must bc the battle cry of Southern far mers if (hey would hold their own. li* tiley Avant their children ami grand children to be tlie future "hewersof wood anti drawers of water"" for capi talists, they can go on in their present policy of guano and cotton und cotton and guano. Thousands of our North ern friends no doubt Ionic down upon us both in sympathy and blame. They see our suicidal course and are amazed that we do not see it loo and turn from it. But is there any hope ol* a change Is there any prospect of inducing far mers to change their hitherto policy? If there is it must be by individual effort. Wc have lost all confidence in cotton or agricultural conventions and associations. Each fannel' must study thc situation for himself and say, Let others do as they please, :is for mc and mine wc are going to live at home and board at tile same place. There 'is no possible; hope ol' unity of action, it may beihni some farmers.are already i planning for a big cotton crop, expect I ing all . their neighbors to plant less, and that will give them a linc oppor tunity to make a for! une. And if every man thinks and acts that way lhere will be a 12 or li million bale crop next year, accompanied with one ol' tho greatest mm-fortuncs ever befell any people. So let every man, in his own personal-character, representing alone himself, resolve to turn over anew leaf in his farming operations, and sec if he can't have something and be somebody. OCCASIONAL.

We have learned by experience that the business methods of the majority of people to whom we have, extended credit are altogether too loose, andas we find this condition of affairs is be coming more prevalent, we will from and after this date, conduct our prac tice wholly for cash. In conformity with this intention, we hereby give notice to that effect. By adopting that method, we will defend ourselves from that undesirable element of fashion able, well dressed deadbeats, living on what they owe, and from that class who do not dress so fine, but have no regard for their promises. Thus we will avoid making bad debts for which the paying class will not have to pay, and, too. giving us more time io work for the belier class. We realize that we will work for fewer people, and will lose a few of our customers, whom we prize very highly, lint we will have more money, and not be so rushed. Now, we wish to (?fiend ?io one, but will mos! posi tively refuse tlie invitation to donny work on time, therefore we beg you not to -ask us for credit. I f you ave ol' the belter class, "ty which we mean the paying class" that we speak of, we will be glad to see you. lint if you be hm;: to that undesirable denicul men tioned, we will not be glad to see you, nor would we work for you knowingly. We ave yours respect fully, STRICKLAND & KING. P. S. In order to meet our own obli gations and maintain our credit, it is incumbent, upon us to collect our out standing accounts; and we will allow no sentimental consideration to stand in (he way, therefore we insist thal ;ill who are indebted to cither of thc fol lowing, Strickland & Anderson, A. C. Strickland, Strickland &? Whitefield, ot to Strickland & Kiug. come and pay us now as all accounts that areiiot paid, or Fo arranged for us to gel the monty on them by (he first of January, 1800, will be advci i ?sci! and sold lo I hts high est bidder. We mean to do just what we say, und wo mos! positively will not carry these accounts longer; therefore if you regard your promises nnyt hin/r, or have any respect for your credit, come arid pay us now. We did your work and trusted to vour honor topav us. Respectfully, A. G. STRICKLAND, STRICKLAND & KING, Dentists. THE STATE OF GOUT'-! CAROLINA, COUNTY or ANDEKSON COURT OF COMMON PLEAS. Martha ll.
