Intelligencer. Published every Wednesday. J. P. CI.INKSCAI.K8, ) EDITONS AND C. C. LANGSTON, S PKOPIUETOIU?. TI; JIM s : ONE YEAH, - - - - $1 50 SIX MONTHS. - - - rs WEDNESDAY, MAY 23, 1900. Last Friday tho House ot Represen tativos passed a bill which provides for the payment of Confederate soldiers who surrendered at Appomattox for tho loss of horses and other personal effects taken in violation of (Jen. Lee's capitulation to Gen. Grant. The amount in tho original hill was lixed at $200,000, but the bill as passed is in definito. Tho election of Representative .Ste venson na permanent chairman ol' thc State Democratic Convention marks another era in the progress of factional disintegration. Mr. Stevenson is one of thc brainiest men iii the State, and tho Convention showed a disposition in this selection to honor the intelli gence of the State instead of adhering rigidly to its former policy of emptying honors to the wind. However much we may condemn the course of Clark, the Montana Senato rial corruptionist, wo must admire the shrewd trick perpetrated upon his equally corrupt enemies, the Daly fac tion, in resigning during the absence of his enemy, Gov. Smith, from the State so that he was reappointed hy his friend, Lieut.-Gov. Spriggs. This isjustanotherca.se of thieves falling out and lighting over the spoils. Under carpet-bag regime, the Gov ernor General of Cuba receives a sal ary of $18,000 per annum, second to that received by the President of the United States. Emperor McKinley is doubtless preparing to abdicate his throne in Washington to proclaim him self dictator over tho island dependen cies pending tho great November up heaval, tho premonitory rumblings ol* which his acute ear has already caught. Resistance to tho authority of the United States in the Philippine Is lands seems to bo increasing instead of diminishing. It is probably more gen eral and moro determined now than ever before. Apprehension of an up rising of the 300,000Filipinos in Manila ia very strongly felt, and there are no signs of a pacification of the people In any of the islands. Imperialism has put a tough and bloody job on Uncle Sam's hands. Last Monda}' the United States Su premo Court decided that it had no jurisdiction in tho Kentucky case. This settles the hotly contested fight for the Governorship of Kentucky. Beckham is a jbrilliant young Demo crat who was elected Lieutenant-Gov ci nor. When Goobel was assassinated, Beckham succeeded him, but Taylor, the Republican claimant of the office, refused to recognize his title to the office and the case was fought through the Courts, the Democrats winning in every Court. *, - wa ? m Mayor Smith, of Macon, Ga., pro poses an arbor day for his city, say one day in each November, when trees may bo set out in the parks and ulong the streets. To encourage this work the city will furnish a cast-iron box in which will be cast the nemo of tho person and the date of the planting of the tree. This box will bo a protec tion to the tree and a monument to the person planting it. Tho idea is being well received in Macon, and within a few years her streets, will be adorned by beautiful shade trees and nt a very small cost to tho city. T7' idea has much to commend it to the City Coun cil of Anderson, as there are many who would be glad to assist in beautifying the streets if they only felt that their work would bo protected by the city. They would, at least, plant trees in front of their own premises; which would add much to the beauty of the city and the comfort of its inhabitants. We are very much gratified to know that Ber. W. T. Capers has proposed the maintenance of an infirmary and home for the homeless in this city, and that the suggestion is mooting with much favor wherever it has been con sidered. As ho truly says, a city of 7,000 inhabitants without a single char itable institution should lose no timo in doing something in tho line of tan gible and organized charity work. As yet no definite plan hasbeen presented, hut tho suggestion is considered prac ticable from a financial point of view, and steps will be taken in the near fu ture to insure the completion of the work. This is a causo deserving of liberal contribution, and philanthropic interest and legacy. Tho city ls stead ily growing, and there is much suffer ing and distress which individual chari ty fails to alleviate. During the rough winter months, it becomes a tax on such effort to respond to all the pitiful appeals, granting thnt they aro all de serving. By organized charity, the difficulties and doubts attending indi vidual charity are reduced to a mini mum, so that there are remote possi bilities of imposition. Anderson's commercial spirit is well known; if we fail to do well n?r part by our unfor tunate citizens, those who know us as a prosperous commercial people will look upon ns with scornful eyes, and we will become a reproach wherever our name is heard, The spirit of char ity is one of the redeeming graces of Andersonians. They never fail to re spond to the cry for help, and while many of us aro already contributing to tho support of charitable Institutions L in other parts of tho State, those same V ?ontributionfrduplicnted ot homo will j make none of us tho poorer. Let tho good work begin at once. 'flu; city ol Charlotte, ono of tim j most thriving cities ot' tho South, has, ? through its Hoard ot Trude, appointed . a committee to aid thc census enumer ators in their work to determine tin* correct population of the eily und to aecuro a fair basis of representation in Congress. The present census being under the supervision of tho Republi cans will, as far as possible, discount the population of Southern Districts to further tho political ends of that party, lt is incumbent then upon all cities and towns, aside from mere political rea sons, for business reason? also, to see that an absolutely fair and liberal count of actual residents is had in thc coming census. Then; is no reason to doubt that Anderson will have an ab solutely fair census, but there aro ii great many of her citizens who are not nt homo during the month of .lune, but who arc actual and nominal residents of the city. There should be some means of insuring the inclusion of such absentees in the eount in order that the census may bo UH complete as possible, ?iud wu would recommend that thc Hoard of Trade appoint ii com mittee on census to assist, the enumer ators in this particular. It is to be regretted that Col. L. W Y0UI11UII8 attempted to stir up the fac tional embers in the State Convention hist week by his bitter and untimely attack upon Senator Tillman. Ile must, hiive known that there was noth ing to gain by such 11 course, mid that on the contrary much was ut stake. Col. Voumans hus been prominently mentioned 111 connection with Senato rial honora ns thc successor of Senator Tillman, and In; naturally felt thal, ho could not consistently allow the en dorsement of his antagonist's official record to go unchallenged. This could have been done in ii manner better creditable to tho line sense and discre tion of Col. Younmns by a simple neg ative vote, which would have been, mon; effective mid more satisfactory from his point of view than the result of tho plan ns ho executed it. Senator Tillman undoubtedly represents his party on the. vital issues ol' tho day in national politics, whatever mny have been his political antecedents, ?md if a fight is made against him it must be waged along other lines than his course in tho Senate. Wo hold Col. Youinans in tho very highest esteem, but candor compels us to say that ho has made a great mistake. Tho great and gooil scape-goat ad ministration at Washington hos slaughtered another kid to atone for the sins of ito people, tho carpet-bag gers in tho Imperial domain of William I. This time it is tue slick scoundrel Neeley, of tho post odlce depart men tot' Cuba. Administration officials are en deavoring to create the impression that the overconfident Mr. Rathbone was so trustful of his employee, Neely, that ho entrusted him to destroy n h\rgo sum of old issue postage stamps and would dismiss tho incident as an un fortunate case of confidence queering. Tho people ref uso to let tho incident closo io this way, however, in view of the fame of Mr. Rathbone ns a shrewd and watchful secret service man; and they will not allow themselves to be hoodwinked into believing that with his experience he was so trustful of any man with human instincts that such peculations could continue longer than n month without his suspicions being aroused, especially since the grounds for suspicion wero so strong. Thc pest o?ice ?cceipta since that time dwindled from f40,000 a month to $15,000 a month, and yet we are asked to believe that Director Rath bone suspected nothing wrong. In the final expose of this dirty business, it will bo found that"thereare others," and unless the facts aro closely guard ed by the sheetering wing of the ad ministration, we predict that Director Rathbone*H feigned innocence and un suspecting nature will have tho calcium light thrown on it that will take him from tho title role of an unsophistica ted innocent abroad to P knowing, conniving treasury lootc /or revenue only. They mny succeed in silencing Neeley and his associates by promises of leniency and thereby save thc inte grity of tho party and its heelers, but tho people will hold the administra tion severely responsible for paying ita political debts to unscrupulous lieu tenants by appointing them to positions of trust and honor in a far off depend ency, in whom we aro trying to incul cate principles of governmental hon esty. _ Commencement Exercises. CENTRAL, S. C., May 10. MR. EDITOR: The commencement ex ercises of our Graded School will take place next Thursday and Friday even ings, tho 24th and 25th, of May. The following is n partial programme: Thursday evening, May 24th, essays by the graduating class: Miss Marion Pickens. of Anderson, "Homefirst-the world afterwards;" Miss Virginia Rea gin, of Newberry, "Class history and prophecy;" Miss Lila Folger of Central.

The debate will bo followed by two or three recitation* interspersed with music, alter which the students will give a reception. STUDENT. Pisgah Items. After quite an elapse of time, "Mr. Editor, wo have decided to give your renders a few dots from our locality. Everything hos taken new lifo since a refreshing shower fell last Friday. Cotton is coming up nicely and tho whoop of tho plow boy and sound of tho hoeaaro getting tobe very com mon. Wheat and oats are the beat we have seen in many years. The fruit crop presents a promising aspect, and everything indicates a full harvest. !.::??:?'.? . .!} ? . ' '?' Miss hin Nichols has closed a very successful term of school at this place and returned home Monday. Mis Ida has made many and lasting friends in our midst. She is a teacher of first class order, and the patrons ami pupils hope that she will return and teach for , them next term. Mr. and Mrs. W. CScott gave a soei- 1 able in honor of Miss Ida Nichols on last Wednesday night. Quite a number were present and all seemed to enjoy the occasion to the full extent. Mr.ami Mrs. Scott always know how to make the young peon! enjoy themselves. The young ladies of the settlement, having peiced each a Ripiare for a quilt for Mr. O. W? Hagwell, assembled on last Saturday to unite the simares and do the quilting. A most delicious din ner was served to the party, and in the afternoon, when all was calm and love ly and the stars shone brilliant and bright, the young men were invited and a most delightful lawn party was enjoyed. Music was furnished ny Mr. J. L. Hag well and Mr. Chas Wilson. The party was gi veil Mr. O. W. Har well by his parents, Mr. and Mrs. r. Hagwell, and if anybody did not enjoy it, it must have been some that failed to get there. Mr. W. H. McAlister has returned from attending school at the Easley Graded School. Mr. Allen, the traveling salesman of thc linn of Jagun &. Ledbetter, of An derson, passed through our community last week. Miss Zula Hall, of Piedmont, visited the family of Mr. C. S.

Two excel lent sermons were delivered, one by our pastor, Kev. I). W. Iiiott, at ll o'clock, after which tho Lord's Supper was administered. The second was delivered by Kev. C. Wardlaw, of Seneca. Mr. Wardlaw is a native of on community and joined the Church at this place about thirty years ago. Hoth sermons were able, logical, and lull of gospel truth. Among the visitors at church we noticed Messrs. Charles and Gallanani of the Peoples' Store at Piedmont, Mr. Shumate and wife, of Greenville, Mr. Richard and Miss Pearl Wyatt, of Easley. Prof. Hays, ci't'arne? vi lie, Ga., conducted the sing ing exercise of the day. He is a very fine MiMieian, and so charmed our peo ple that they immediately subscribed s uti ici eut amount to secure his services as instructor some ti me during tho sum mer. Mr. Editor, it scorns that the candi dates are a little timid this time about announcing themselves. Come along, boys, and let us know who you are and let your wishes be known, lt won't cost you any more now than after awhile. We hope that some of you will be elected at leant. May many run and .heap the announcing fee or the grand old INTELLIGENCER. With best wishes, wo are. UNCLE REMUS. Trinity Items.

We had the privilege of attending the Jolly Springs picnic last Saturday. We arrived on the ground rather late, but just in time to see a large crowd enjoying themselves. The school at Concord and Hunter's Spring all assembled there, and we think Misses Eva Gentry and Maud O'Neal, the teachers of those schools, know as well how to make the young people enjoy themselves at a picnic "as they do to train their minus in the scnool room. A large crowd from Lebanon was there, and if people did not have f un you know it was not the fault of visi tors. There were no speeches, except those some of the boys made to in dividuals, as was expected. Tho young people enjoyed a singing nt Mr. John Thompson's last Saturday night. They report having a fine time. SCHOOL BOY. Friendship Items. Rev. W. H. Hawkins preached a very interesting Hermon at this place last second Sunday afternoon to a largo Audience.
