THE TAX MATTER.
The State could save a good deal
of money if the State tax commission
were done away with. They could
also save the people some trouble. If
there is a single useless commission
in South Carolina?and there are
probably several of them?the State
tax commission must undoubtedly be
the most useless. After the office
has been abolished, let some legislator
introduce and have passed a
law to tax property according to what
it is worth and that will end the mat*
ter. If a man owns a fifty thousand
dollar stock of goods, let him pay
taxes on fifty thousand dollars. If
he owns a fifty thousand dollar farm
let him pay taxes on fifty thousand
dollars. Why all this percentage
business, the business that requires
a man running a little store which
m ' \
barely makes a living for himself
and his family to pay more taxes
than the owner of one of the finest
farms in the State? Any justice in
that? Looks very m. ~h as ir tne
State tax commission has run out of
something to do.

Death of Little Girl.
Little Eulalee, the eight year old
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. A. B. Ehrtiardt,
died at the home of her grandmother,
Mrs. S. A. Rowell, Monday
morning after an illness of several
weeks. The remains were buried on
Tuesday afternoon at Ehrhardt.
During most of her life the girl
had made her home with her grandmother.
For some time past she had
suffered with an abcess in the head,
and about three or four weeks ago
the child had to take to her bed. For
several days previous to her death
little hope was held out for her life,
and death came as a relief for her
intense suffering.
