The act i ?-*??? red to in that regatding the fe? paid county treasurers for tux execu-! cutions. The old luw provided that for each execution issued there should be a fee of fifty cents. The last legislature changed it h<? that the fee was made one dollar, ex cept in (J hesterfluld county where it wua made llfty cents for each ex ecution whether it was collected or not. In other counties it was only paid when collected. It is held that this is clearly unconstitutional ns it is special legislation. An opinion as to theso foea and the salaries of auditors was given today to tlio comptroller by the as ?i?tnnt attorney general, as follows: Hon. A. W. .Jones, ( Comptroller Gen eral, Columbia, S. C. Answering your inquiry aa t<? whether the county treasurer in authorized to charge the fee of one dollar for each tax execution issued against delinquents authorized by section 18 of this act upon execu tions now issued for the fiscal year, 1904, I beg to say that they are. This fee of one dollar for each tax execution |? chargabls only against the tax delinquent, except in Ches terfield county, where the feo is fifty cents, but ischargable against tho county if not collected out of the delinquent tax payer. Respectfully, W. II. Tow ii send, Assist. Ally.', (ion. Tho AsHintant Attorney General lias also given it as his opinion that tho increase or change in Auditors' salaries took effect upon tbe passage of tho Act, Feb. 22nd. Ho A Good Citizen.

A truthful soul, a loving mind, Full of affection for its kind ; A spirit firm, erect and free, That never basely bends a knee; That will not hear a feather's weight Of slavery's chain for small or great ; That truly speaks trom God within, That never makes a league with sin ; That anaps the fetters despots make, And loves the truth for its own sake ; That worships .God and Him alone, And bows no moro than at His f throne, And trembles at no ty ant's nod ? A soul that fears no one but God, And thus can smile at curse or / ban ? r - This !? the soul that makes a man! ? K*.
