The People's Journal. PICKENS S, C. STATE TREASURY IN DEBT. The Expenses Must be Reduced or More Tixes Will ilave to be L.eviecl. The financial condition of the State and the necessity for judicious action to relieve the embarrassment in paying current expenses have been comment ed upon now and then, but the L.ogis lature continues to make appropria tion without regard to consequences, and the treasury finds itself in debt to the amount of $300,000 this year. The following statement is interest ing to the people who pay the taxes, and is made by Mr. Jesse T. Ganut, of the Secretary of State's ollice, with which he has been connected for sev eral years : I am requested by various parties to give my authority for assertions which I have made as to the financial condi tion of the State. As the time allowed a candidate for the Secretary of State, five minutes, does not permit a refer ence to authorities, I am forced to adopt this method in complying with these requests. The following letter from State Treasurer Jennings is responsible for the assertion which I have mado, that a deficit of $300,000 has been created within three years : "Mr. J. T. Gantt-Dear Sir : I take for granted there was no money bor rowed by the State Treasurer for 1898, 1899 and 1900, as Dr, Timmermian said at Gaffney that he had not had to borrow any. For 1901 we. borrowed $175,000. Up to this tine we have borrowed for 1902 $220,000, and the present indications are that we will have to borrow enough more to make out the entire $300,000 author ized by the Legislature. Very respect fully, R. 11. JENNINUS." August 11, 1902. As to the assertion that the rate of taxation for State purposes in South Carolina is already nearly twice the average rate in the other States of the Union, I give below the rate for the fiscal year 1898 in twenty-nine States of the Union, in mills upon each dol lar of assessed valuation : New Jersey, 0 ; Indiana, 9 10 of a mill ; Maine, 1 3-4 ; Maryland, 1 3 4 Minnesota, 1 8-10 ; Michigan, 1 9-10 Texas, 2 ; North Carolina, 2 1-10 New York, 2 1-6 ; Arkansas, 2 1-2 ; Missouri, 2 1-2 ; Montana, 2 1-2; West Virginia, 2 1-2 ; Wisconsin, 2 1-2; Ohio, 2 4-5 ; Washington, 2 9-10 Georgia, 3 ; Kentucky, 3 ; Oklahoma, 3 ; South Dakoh, 3 ; Virginia, :3 ; Florida, 3 1-12 ; Oregon, 3 1.2 ; Col orado, less than 4 ; North Dakota, 4 1-10 ; Illinois, 4 1-5 ; Tennessee, 4 1-2 ; Utah, 4 1-2 ; Kansas, '1 1-2 South Carolina, 5. The taxpayers of the State are en titled to an explanation of the reason why, with a tax rate nearly twice the average in other States, a defieit of three hundred thousand dollars has been accumulated within three years. Six thousand dollars will be paid this year as interest upon money borrowed by the State Treasurer until next year's thxes can be collected and ap plied to this year's expenses. Unless some means can be found to supply the treasury of the State with resources from other quarters the peo pie are today face to face with either a heavy increase in the lev y to meet this deficit or a large reduction in the ap. propriations, and consequently an in adequate support of the present State institutions. We cannot reasonably hope to meet this condition by an in crease in property values, for this de ficit has been created in spite of an in crease of forty million dollars (or 20 per cent.) in six years, which has not been su flcient to reduce the rate. -I have brought out these facts in an endeavor to sbow the necessity upon us of encouraging the provision of in direct sources of revenue to aid in supporting the State. The Secretary of.,State's ofilce in most of the States has been inade a revenue bearimg of fice, and it should be made so in South Carolina. Rtespecfully, J. T. GANWr. A GOOD JOKE ON TALnEWr-In rough and tumble debate CJol. W. . - Talbert is a hard man to faze. And his repertoire of jokes is extensive and well chosen. ".1 never saw Col. Talbert downed but once,' said a can didate, " and that was while he was in Congress. It was on Friday, the day when the pension bills swarm to the front, and Col. Talbert, was raising objection after objection and annoying the Rtepublicans past endurance. They were attacking him from all sidhes, and he was replying every few miinutes mn the hottest kind of language. Finally a lhttle dried up chap from a Western State got to his feet and hurled a few acrimonious adjectives at Col. Talbert. In his retort Col. Talbert quoted from the Bible some stinging references to the fool, and applied them to the man from the West. The little fellow rose again and, in a voice that cut like a razor, he shouted: 'The gentleman from South Car-o-li-na has seen fit to lash me with words culled from Holy Writ. He asseverated that the Bible declares that the rod should be used on the back of the fool, and urged me to take heed of that admonition. Permit m~e to observe that the Bible . also declares that man must be born again, and if by some strange twist of fate the gentleman from South Car-o ti-na is born again I hope to God he'll be still-born.' Well, sir, the Rtepubli cans rose in a body and fairly howled with delight. The Speaker pounded for order and Col. Talbert made an in effectual effort to come again, but for once in his life he could not rise to the occasion. John Quinby, a cattle herder, of - Fort Worth, Tex., was caught in a stampede of cattle on a ranch near thit place a short while ago, and was ' ) trampted to death by the infuriated beast. Hie had, up to that time, been considered 'as one of the very best -cattle herders of that region. IDUCATIONAL FALLACIES. Hynop,ie of an Addrcss llefore the State Tenchers Aesoclntion biy Supt. E. L. luighes, of Greenville, 1'rcei dent of the Association. What men believo is the principal force in their lives. From our beliefs spring our words and deeds. Who be lieves most strongly, strives most zeal ously. Faith is the mainspring of human action. It may be good or evil as the things we believe are true or false. All faith is true faith, but it may be decely ed, may fasten itself upon error. The v power to believe is a good power, but s the misapplication of it to holding and a defending falsehood as truth is an evil thing. Fallacies are beliefs in that which is falsec-the perversion of the noblest faculty to the basest use. They result from false or defective reasoning based upon ignorance or misapp! eheusion of i facts. Everything evil spr!ugs from < some fallacy. Those who accept and maintain fallacies, who fol!ow them and propagate them are the worst enemies of mankind. Yet they are sincere, honest, mean well, are ofLen pious, good people. Deceived themselves they become blind guides, lead others astray. Fallacies should be resisted; error must be fought; yet should those who resist, who fight, be patient, sincere, sympathetic, beware lost they themselves be mistaken and another's truth-which is genuine-be their fallacy. All are liable to be vic tims. Thee are false beliefs in all lines of human thought. There are religious, social, political, industrial fallacies, and there are Educational Fallacies. Here are some of them: 1. Education is a Panacea. President Buyder, of Wolrord College, said in an educational address rot long siu(.o, " It is pathetic to so the faith of the American people in Education." t Why patbeic ? Because, whenever more t is claimed for a thing or expected of it 9 than can be realized, disappoio.mot s must result, the geater the expectrton the more bi'ter wll be the disappo:nt. ment. Educational progress in our coun try has been marvelous. At psesent more than $200,000,000 is ape it yearly, over 400,000 teachers employed and 15,000,t )0 children enrolled in the pub )c schools alone. This is indeed an inca'culable force, and it is but na,u: al that magnificent re: uits are expected and accomnilished. But the school has been so lauded, the importance of its work so magnlfied that there bas grown a sort of belief that educat'on w1i1 do everything. That if good schools are provided and the cbi1dtion kept in them, they must of recess&ty be enab'ed to live successiul lives. Do tbey ? A- e those who aIC eAucated uuifo'-oly successful ? Are they always lodustious, economical, prudent, temperaLe, inOlPigeut, pat! iotic, k:ud, religious. By no meaus Why not? Be(ause condiUons are against tuom, not bccause toe scuoo. has fai'od to do its work wve!l. What agencies make con dmtioen ? The home, tibe church, indus tr'al institue!ons, government. Let us call thlese lLstlta dons to act'ount. If orr pupils fail to make good use of the edu cat!on they receive in the schoo's, lot us hold those responsible who are responsi ble-the make-.s of conditions-es.ch in its own sphere. The school cannot do all the work, must not claim a!l the credit, should not bear ali the blame. 2. The Church Should Keep School. Out of the over valuation of education in branches of secular learning has grown this fallacy, which Is both re'lious and educational. Should the chuich embark In wholesale school keeping both reli gion and education would suffer loss; do ing a little at it Is no bette". The church has a definite mission, a speCial woi k, a D)ivine text book, and a God like-power. Let it keep to that, do that, ter,ch that, have faith in that. Let it cease to be little public educat3on ; realize the great ness of this force and uae it. It has no time, nor need, nor call to teach spelling grammer, arithmetic, whi'e the world is so ignorant of and so Indifferent to the Bible. It is its great pr'vilege to wme'd a dominant influence In the home, the school, the workshops and the govern muent, while usurping the functiots of none of them, It is the greatest Institu tion on catth; let it not stool) to a lower mission than its own. 8. Public Education Is Godless. Churchmen say to the schools: because you do not teach the Bible, therefore you are Godless and we'll take your work ; we're not very busy, we can do yours and ours too. The schools do not teach the Bible because warring creeds will not allow them. Should pub'iceodu cation therefore be called Godless ? No true education is Godless. Whoever de volaps the mind, the body, the heart of Gray Hair "I have used Ayer's Hair Vigor for over thirty years. It has kept my scalp free from dandruff and has prevented my hair from turn .ing gray."- Mrs. P. A. Soule, There is this peculiar thing about Ayer's Hair Vigor-it is a hair food, not a dye. Your hair does not suddenly turn black, look dead and lifeless. But graduallythe old color comes back,--all the rich, dark color it used to have. The hair stops falling, too. 51.00 a bottle.

The dull, sunken eye, Pa vith its dark circles almost surely speaks tot f womanly ill-health, and its attendaiit thl uffering. With the dull eye goes usu lly the sallow, sunken cheek, tile drawn touth, the shrunken form-the whole rot ;lory of woman's beauty marred by the cal ifects of disease. 1)r.

Pierce's Pleasant Pellets cleanse the clogged system from accumulated at Impurities. th au in child through instruction and training th losoGod'sown work. The child is ready w hen for the church to teach him its ce ruth and nothing that he has learned at di chool pi events it. The pubilc school is it once an ally of the home and the hurch, as well as business, social and lolitical institutions, but it is such by loing its own work with " Charity for i and with malice towards none." 4. Is it best for a State that part of its )opulation should be ignorant ? This is the fallacy of the demagogue, eooking votes. This gives rise to schemes 'or unequal division of educational funds . to that part of the people may have nueh, and another part, little. Intelli ent citizenship has for ao long been recognized as the safeguard of a free 3tate, that no sano man questions it. And yet, to give to the most ignorant -lass :f citizens the smallest possible part of the find provided by the Stato to insure the intelligence of its citizens, is urged by some statesmen (?) and accept- i ed by some citizens. Truly, those have small faith tn the vittue of A nglo Saxon C blood who say that the only way the Anglo Saxon can hold his own with the 10thiopian is to keel) the latter bound in bouds of ignorancc-chained to the soil. 5. Certain classes should have certain kinds of Education. That is to say that a certatn part of the people are born to work and another to shirk and each must be fitted by edu cation to fulfill its destiny. The--e is an clement of the population which appar sntly is considered to be absolved from manual labor ; another on which all hard menial labor comes as an inherit ance. Wealth, education and culture mark the former ; poverty, Ignorance and degrada tion the latter, and each must he trained .. for its sphere. Men wiho vlolent'y object to class Jegia'ation, adu se what is really class education. Can the one c rist with out bringing tihe otber ? Democracy Is - opposed to clhiasm of all kinds. The true democratic ideal is to give every man his chance to do what be can do best, and to aid him to do that. There needs to be a revival of interecst in hon rabie toel. The dignity of labor, the sobi'Jty of tihe man who does honest work with his hands, the necess'ty to .. iumanity of the hand to hand strug,gle .. with nature-of living near to natu:" ihould be Insisted upon. TIhat educationT a fatally defective which does not build 1 ipon this, whether for rich or poor. The iuman race is like Antaeus of old who wrestled with Hercules. As often as he ef was thrown to the ground, the Earth, . tis mother, renewed his strength ; and t was only when Hercules held him away from the earth that he was crushed , Lnd conquered. 6. Compulsory Ignorance Is better than Jompulsory Intelligence. Whenever Jegislation looking to the atter is pxoposed, there is a howl about in iberty, and the Invasion of individual Lpd private rights. We have legislation which permits the former, already. WVhase rights are invaded .by that ? le Whoever is opposed to compulsory edu- pr mation Is virtually in favor of compulsory gnoranco-for that is upon us now. B RIave the chlldren no rights ?' The State lays practidally'each one has a right to ntelligonce.. It should say so literally. What right has any individual in a State which is not given and guar?.uteod to - tim by the State ? -None.

Has the State no ight to educate his children ? -The - tato claims proprietorshipin his chIld- H. en. If tho\State wantsathem for war, . tr violation of law, or for public service t comes and' gets 'thtem. When theyf~ each a certain age the State say8 they re free ; when they wish to leave him nd get married the State 'says they may i nd they do, and all thjs wh4ether ho is villing or not. Shall it then not educate hem forte ir good, for his benefit and m* its own safety ? It should, it must, Vill I . Education is a Sincure. rhere are three phases of this fallacy. st, Education may le made easy. eond, Education is a moans of esca ig hard work. Third, Educational 3itions may be bestowed as favors and awarded to merit. Out of the first ses all the fads and short cuts in ,ching; all the shirking and shamming, l shallowness, all the misplaced sym thy for hard working pupils and ,chors. There never was, there is not, re never can be any way to develop a man being except by exercise and all 1 exercise is work--hard work. Edu ,ion may _be made interesting ; it can t be made easy. From the second aso arises the idea that children should educated so they will not have to irk as hard as their fathers and moth 1. " Unto whom much is given of him ,ll much be required."

The third ase accounts for so meny incompe its in positions of responsibility in our iools. Educational positions are not )lums." The school system is no "free nch counter."

The child's account of what happened at school Is what the parents are prone to believe, no matter what the teacher says The perfection of one's own child is, privately, a gonor ally accepted fact. Some instances, a good deal higher than the common schools, are fresh in the public mind of the tendency there is to endorse what " the king " does and says. Lot,the child be king; it is his right, he is the future ruler; but away with the fallacy that whatever he does is right. He must be taught, restrained, guided, c >rrocted if need be, for his own and the general good. 9. We are Doing well enough. This is a benumbing, paralyzing-a very opiate of fallacies. Many look at what has been done rather than at what is to be done and are inclined to flatter themselves, relax, rest, take it easy. When we compare ourselves with our, selves, we are doing pretty well, but South Cakolina is in the roar of the pro cession when she is compared with hei sister States. Theme is an educationa revival in North Carolina ; has boon one for some time in Virginia and Tennes see. Georgia is far in the lead and evos Florida shows more educational progresi and spirit than do we. As long as child ron in South Carolina rich or poor, higl or low, black or white, are growing ul in ignorance or degradation we are no doing well enough. Lot no man accep the fallacy.
