We siml Soon See h1)owV IIanIy peo~
ple in 1airfield are foolish enough
or truckling enough to pay money
to a tax-gatherer appointed by the
usu Ilper Chamberli.
The splendid work of the cam
paign will have meant notbing at all. I
if those who labored so well for
H1amp1i)tol and llReform shall now
give aid to the Bayonot Government
-or refus.e to contribute to the Pup
port of the Constitutional Gowurh,
*men)t.
it is due to G0overnor Nampton,
in simple good faith; that the *eo)ple
who placed him, 'witho'ut any seek
ing whatever on his pai, in the
position lie now holds, should re
spond promptly aiid fully to bis call
for menta to -support the govern
ment of whilch hi is the chosen
-head.
The hypocritical Chamberlain
'onco made a great noise over the
heavy taxation imposed liy the Log
isuature. Now he ap1roves a bill
which, wero it lawfully passed,
would load the taxpayers with a
heavior burden than any before
healped upon them.
SReiturning boards and United
States troops may put tire machine
ry of a Stato goveinment inl the
hands of a defeated 'political party
but neither ean put money into a
State troasury if a People, having
the Law and the Courts on their
side, resolve to paty no taxes to the
usurpors.
Suppose the Chamberlain ofhcials
should go through the farceo of
olling people's property for non
p;yeniiilt of the so-called taxes
where will the plmsor:; com1o
froin ? And how will the pretended
purchasirs got possession ? Can

tributions to sustain the Constitu
t ionail State Goverinment. Several
thousand1 dollars have been received,
aind the Governor informed tihe su
p~erintend~ent of the penitentiary and
of the lunatic asylum that he was
prepared to p~rovide for tile relief
of those institutions, and directed
the superintendents to draw on him
for the sumis needed. Both institu
tioins sadly needled assistance.
The man who pay taLxes to the
Chamberlain government only does
the foolish tiling of voluntarily
taking. the risk of haying them to
pay over again. The Supreme
Court has decided, Verbis ipeissimnis,
that the Wallace House is the lawv
ful House of Representatives of the
State of South Carolina: hence tihe
so-called Rouse run by E. W. M.
Mackey is really no part at all of the
law-making branch of the State
government. How, then, can a tax
levy be enforced, when iL has not
been passed by the Constitutional
House? Maybe Judge Rond can
answer.
Thme tax levied by the Mackey
Hlonso for the fiscal year 1876-77 is
eigh teen mitls-fifteen mills State
tax and three mills county tax.!
This, we hcieve,' laisger than aniy
levy made for Fimirfield since Re-'
construction. Tile thieves will not
be long, we believe, in learning' that
Daorcus and uiluls, but paid them
becauso they woro imposed in
iccordance with law, will not comply
with the present denand for money.
The unlawful taxes will not bo paid!
