''Let oar just Ce n rare o

BY J. A. SELBY.
COLUMBIA, S. C., WEDNESDAY MORNING, MAY 1, 1872.
VOL. VIII-NO. 36.
To the Citizens of South Carolina.
COLUMBIA, 8. 0., October 21, 1872.
F?r the information of the public and
lor the purpose of warning the tax?
payers of this State against a schema I
which has been gotten up by certain
State officials, by which certain men are
to make a large amount of money by de?
frauding the people, I wish to address to
you a few words. A little moro than one
year ago I was appointed to the position
of Auditor of State, and sinoo that lime
I have endeavored to do my duty in that
connection to tho best of my judgment.
How far I have suooeeded remains, for
the people to decide. The first action,
which, out of my regular conrao of
duties, I deemed it inoumbent upon me
to take, was the prevention of the circu?
lation of the Blue Ridge scrip. This, I
was repeatedly told by the Governor,
some ono was going to do; but after
waiting until almost too late, I learned
that the notion of the Governor was
simply for the purpose of forcing John
J. Patterson, the President of the com?
pany, to pay certain claims which he
held against the road, in the shape of a
note of the company, which he procured
in a way not likely to add to the reputa?
tion of au honest man. Waiting, as I
have heretofore said, until almost too
late, for some one to take this matter
into the courts, I finally instituted the
necessary proceedings, with tho sanction
of the Governor. After proceedings
had peen commenced and the nanni
neoessnry inducements been offered his
Exoellenoy, au effort .was made by him?
self and others interested, to induce me
to withdraw the Bait. $10,000 in cash
was offered me by one party the day that
the ease came into court; and an indirect
offer of $25,000 ia scrip was subsequent?
ly made by another party, in case I
would oonsont to withdraw the suit.
This, I, of course, refused; and the
matter has been a bone of contention be?
tween us ever since.
Au effort was made soon after the ad?
journment of the Legislature, and cou?
ti mied for some two or three m on tba, to
iuduoe me to levy a speoial tax to pay the
interest upon the entire bonded debt of
the State, legal and illegal, to be co Heat?
ed immediately. This I refused, al?
though an inducement of $20,000 in cash
was offered me, to either levy the tax or
resign my position for the purpose of al?
lowing Dr. Neaglo to moke the levy; and,
at the same time, I waa informed that
Gov. Scott had promised Dr. Neagle to
remove me, in caso I refused to mako the
levy. I again declined to comply with
their wishes.
Now, a second effort has been made to
f oreo me to levy a tax to pay the interest
npon the fraudulent debt of the State,
and to include a levy of three mills upon
the dollar to redeem $450,000 ot the
Blue Ridge sorip-one-quarter of the
entire issue-whioh has, by decision of
his Honor Judge A. J. Willard, of the
Supreme Court, been decided unconsti?
tutional and invalid.
Now, while I deem it the duty of every
good citizen to pay all just and lawful
taxes, I do not oonsider it his duty to
pay every tax that may be imposed by
unscrupulous meu, who chanco to be in
power. Nor do I consider it the duty of
any officer who, through the foree of
circumstances, happens to be the ap?
pointee of such men, to blindly follow
their dictation, without regard to right
or wrong. So thinking, and acting as I
consider it the duty of a good officer
and au honest man, I have again refused
to comply with their wishes; and I have
this day received an order removing me
from office. It is but just to myself to
add, that I was informed by his Excel?
lency the Governor that I might retain
the office, provided I would make the
levy. His Exoellenoy, while insisting
npon the levy of these taxes, informed
me that he knew the money, if collect?
ed, would not be applied to tho purpose
for which it was levied, but that that was
none of our business; that it was our
duty to levy the tax; and he based his
argument upon the ground that many
outstanding claims were now held against
the State, (of which he is the possessor
to the amount of $40,000, as he himself
informed- me,) and that the Treasurer
would have no funds to pay them. His
only other argument was, that he had
publicly pledged his word to Henry
Clews ec Go. that the tax would be levied,
and that, should it not be, he would
stand before the people in the light of
inconsistency.
This Boheme is, as I have said, no new
movement; but while Auditor of the
State, I succeeded in preventing its con?
summation. Being no longer in such
position, I am powerless to protect your
interests, and I now leave it to you to
say, Shall this plot be carried out, and
you be subjected to pay this enorm us
tax, amounting to twenty mills for State,
and, in this County, five and one-half
mills for County-two and one-half times
the tax of last year? or will you unite in
a determined effort to prevent the conti?
nuance of tho frauds which have impo?
verished the people and disgraced the
State? To bring suoh an effort to a suc?
cessful issue, I pledge for my own part
my most hoartv co-operation.
