THE COURT HOUSE AGAIN. When Mr. Hardin, or any one else, accuses Gaffney of trying to get an advantage over the county or of breaking faith with the people of the county, there is one important fact overlooked or ignored. Thu* is that Gaffney, herself, is an integral part of the county and that whatever wrong might be done the county would be done to Gaffney. This court house question has been argued as if Gaffney and the county had en tirely separate interests and one was arrayed against the other. We ask our readers to consider for a moment what Gaffney’s part of the county is. From the Auditor’s and Treasurer’s books we find that the assessed value of all the property in Cherokee county is 91(5,874; that of Limestone township, in which Gaffney is situated, is $1,432,770. It will be seen by these figures that Limestone township pays nearly one half of the taxes of the whole county and all know that the bulk of this half comes from Gaffney. All know further, that town property is in creasing in amount and value much more rapidly than landed estates; and no one will doubt but that in an other year or two Gaffney will pay more than one half of the taxes of the county. How then can Gaffney wrong the county without wronging herself? Ho.v can a man make money off himself? How can one man doing business with another ns a copartner make money off his co partner in property bought and used solely for the benefit of the firm? There is another fact which has been persistently ignored. That is, that there is an indefinite number of ways of honestly and faithfully dis charging an obligation besides that of complying with the strict letter and words of the contract. Mr. Hardin, as a la.vyer and a man of intelligence, knows this as well as we do, yet he ignores it, and insists upon ‘*the pound of flesh.” Let us suppose that Mr. Hardin holds your note for $500, due in five years, without in terest, suppose you feel restless under the thought of incumbering yourself for so long a time and you go to him and offer to pay him $300 for the note, which is its present worth, at 8 per cent, bank discount. Suppose he rather than wait five years for his money and incur all the incident risks, cheerfully accepts this amount in full payment of the note. Have you wronged Mr. Hardin? Have you not dltcharged your obligation? Yet you promised to pay him $S00 and you have paid him only $30*0. Suppose further that you have a piece of property which you offer to Air. Hardin for the note <ind he finds it to his interest to accept it. Do you wrong him in this transaction? Do vou break faith with anybody? Don’t you pay your debts like an honest man? Yet you promised him #.>90 in money and, in this case, you have paid him no money at all. Contracts are fulfilled and obliga tions discharged in this way almost every day all over the country, with out the slightest infringement of le gal or moril responsibility. Now, this is exactly t*-e status of the question at issue. Gaffney has made an offer to satisfy this bond, which is not due till the expiration of eleven years. We think the offer is a very liberal one, and we think we have shown tins fact in a previous article so clearly that he who runs may read. Hut If the people of the county cannot or will not, look at It in this light, why, there is an end to it. In the cases we have supposed, Mr. Hardin had the right to do just as he pleased about accepting your offer. He might reject it, and live to aeo that ho had made a great mistake but that would be no business of yours. Ho If Cherokee county now determines to “go farther and fare worse,” Gaffney has a right to com plain to the extent of her half inter ests in the county, and no further. Mr. Hardin asks why we did not tell the people of the uncertainties | of this bond, before the elect.on for the new county. We answer, partly, because we took it for granted that the people knew us much about what changes twelve years would bring us 1 we did; and partly because they had | been already told by one whose words would have ten times more weight with them than any thing we could say. In Senator Tillman’s speech at Gaffney before the election—a speeeh which was heard by a large number of the people of the county and heard of by all the, rest—he empha sized this vecy point and warned the people of the uncertainties of twelve years, in that trite adage so often quoted, “There’s many a slip ’twixt the cup and the lip.” Yet in the face of such a warning from such a source, the people went ahead and voted for the new county by a decided majority. Does it look like they did it solely because they believed in the validity of that bond? Mr. Hardin is mistaken when he asserts that we know that Chero kee county never would have been established but for the confidence of the people in Gaffney’s promises. There were causes at work more pow erful than anything Gaffney could promise. The time had come when the necessities of business, the con veniences of the people, the increase of population and wealth, the spirit of progress and many other consider ations, demanded a new county, and it was bound to come; and when it did come Gaffney, on account of its geographical position, was the logi cal place for the court house. Wo would not, if we could mag nify the uncertainties of that bond neither would we say a word for the purpose of weakening anybody’s con fidence in it, nor cast a single reflec tion on the honor and integrity of those who signed it. The truth is, with about two exceptions, we do not know who signed it. We believe, however, it is as good a bond of its kind as could be executed in the world. Hut that belief does not relieve the situation. If it were a town bond, we should consider it all the better for having eleven years to run, and we should say to the county there is nothing to be made by a speedy settlement or by accepting any sort of equivalent. A prosperous town is supposed to be a fixture and a certainty, and usually its long-time bonds will bring a much higher pre mium in the market than its short ones. ‘•Men may come and men may k ( > But it kocs on forever.’. But we wish to impress again upon the people the fact that this is not a town bond. It is not. because Gaff ney. under its charter, at that time, could not legally execute one, at least we suppose this is the reason. We sincerely hope that eleven years to come will find every one of those signers alive, in health, and with es tates, honor and integrity all intact. But we would not build too much on such a hope for any man nor set of men. The municipal government is will ing now toshoulder the responsibility of that bond and settle It. If there is one thing in the world that is cer tain to change in the next eleven years, radically in sympathy, pur poses, character and complexion, it is the municipal government. It will change in all these because it will change In men. New men must come forward and new schemes, in terests and enterprises must come with the changing years. Is it wise then for the county com missioners, acting for the people of the sounty, to refuse a settlement now, which, on every legitimate prin ciple of business, must be considered fair and honorable to all parties con cerned? That is the question which we sub mit to the candid, thoughtful people of Cherokee county. g ENTRIES FROM OUR DAY BOOK. The Prohibitionists have called a convention and will put out a Htato ticket from governor down to coro ner. If the people of South Carolina now really want prohibition, they can have It. In our opinion such u ticket could never before have been put out at so favorable a time. ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ We have been told by men well informed on the prices of property in Gaffney, that our estimate of the value of the lots offered to the coun ty was too low by half—that Instead of $f»(X) each they will bring $I,U00. It is a fact that lota not more favora bly located hav ) sold for that amount and more. The United States will take a part in the hunt for the Lake City murder ers, and we may be sure that there will not he much conniving or white washing done by government officiuls. There are now rewards offered to the amount of $2,009, for each of the murderers, and somebody is going to get the rewards, or know the reason why. The United States has a long arm and heavy hand, and by the time she lifts her hand off those bar barians, there will not he spirit enough left in them to murder a Williamsburg musquito. ♦ ♦ ♦ * At Pomariu, in Newberry county, there has long been an organized sys tem of robbery in operation, but for a time the secret was so well kept, tiiat it .vus impossible to locate the robbers. But they gradually became bolder and more reckless, as men en- araged in such an occupation always do, and lately they have been caught up with and exposed, and contrary to all precedent and expectation, the gang is found to consist largely of men of means and former respecta bility. The communistic senti ment is growing among our people, and if not checked will yet paralize the industry and enterprise of the country and disorganize our whole social and economic system. ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ Property is appreciating in value in Gaffney, and will continue to rise as the town grows. And this fact brings up another phase of the court house question not yet perhaps thought of by many. Is it not rea sonable to expect that the property now offered for courthouse and jail, in eleven years from this time will be worth double its present value? It now approximates in value the face of the bond and fjr exceeds the present worth of that bond. How will they compare in value eleven years hence, when no interest will have accrued on the bond and the property will have doubled? There is something here for the people to think about. The killing of T. J. Trimmier, of Spartanburg, is deplorable and heart- sickening. A bright, genial, whole- souled, noble man, in the vigor of life and hope, is stricken down with out a moment’s warning; another life capable of much is blighted for ever; two happy families are sudden ly plunged into the depths of wretch edness and despair, while a whole community mourns in sympathy; and all for what? Some fancied wrong, perhaps, that one word of ex planation might have made all right, or some distorted image that sud denly sprang up in an inflamed bruin that a momoni’s reflection or one word from the right source would have banished. We know nothing of the circumstances beyond what have been made public, but we do know that nothing that any man could vuy would justify such a deed, and we enter one more solemn protest against pistols, and this reckless disregard of human life. God pity this genera tion, if this state of things is to be continued. At the first sound of war the old Confederate raises his bristles and utters the old-time growl. But he is like the old bull dog whose teeth are gone, and whose limbs are stiff with age, but whoso spirit is as strong as when he thrashed a whole pack of yelping curs. He thinks he can do It again, but he can’t. The trifling- est pup can outstrip him in speed wallow him in the dirt, and but for the toughness of his old hide could tear him into shoe strings. Just us well be quiet, old vet. Your day is pass ed. It has been 33 years since your last battle. When they “let slip the dogs of war,” they must be younger dogs than you. The first bound they make will convince you that you are not in it. The first long march will find you Hat of your back on the road side, or in the clutches of the guard, or in an ambulance on your way to the hospital. If they'll make you a General or Provost Marshal, or put you in a fort, you may show the boys a thing or two. But otherwise, stand aside and look on, criticise and tell how Lee and Jackson would have done it, keep at a sufc distance and let ’er rolh Like a Well Oiled Machine.

Hold by Chcrokcu Druir CO. A QUEEN ON THE SCAFFOLD. Marie Antoinette's Demennor on the Way to the Gnillotlne. “The Last D:\ys of Louis XVI and Mario Antoinette” is the title of an article by AnnaL. Biclmell in The Cen tury. Miss Bickuell says: The executioner then seized the beau tiful, delicate bauds and tied them with a rope behind her back. Thu queen sighed deeply and looked up to heaven, but although tears were ready to flow she restrained them. When her hands were thus firmly bound, tho executioner took off her cap an J cut off her hair. As she felt the touch of thoscisscrson her neck she started and turned hastily, evident ly supposing that sho was about to be murdered in the cell. Sho then saw the executioner folding up her hair, which ho put in hia pocket. Before she left the cell sho said anxiously to the officer now on guard, “Do you think they will let me reach tho place of executiou without tearing mo to pieces?” He assured her that sho had nothing to fear from tho mob, but sho seemed auxious as sho followed the officials who led her to her doom, scarcely hop ing even for the dreadful security of a guarded scaffold. When she saw tho cart awaiting her, sho again started and seemed to receive a fresh shock, fcilio had supposed that, like tho king, sho would have tho protection of a closed coach. The cart was of a kind seen only in remote country parts at tho present day and made of four separate sides rudely tied together, the back part be ing let down for ingress, with a step- ladder attached. A plank put across tbu cart served as a seal. The queen ascend ed the steps firmly and prepared to sit facing the horse, but she was immedi ately told that she must sit backward, looking toward the spectators. Sho turned and took her seat with perfect calmness and a grave, resolute look, gazing straight before her, pale, with red, even bloodshot, eyes, but carrying her head high, us was her wont. The executioner and his assistant stood be hind her, leaning against tho sides cl tho cart. The priest took his place next to her, but she turned away and seemed determined not to speak to him, though he held up a crucifix before her from time to time. Sho seemed to suffer pain from the ropes around her hands, on which he pressed to relievo tho tension. The endt were held by tho executioner, pulling the arms backward. The cart went on slowly, while an immense crowd fol lowed in dead silence till they reached tho Rue St. Houore. There they found hostile elements, especially tho aban doned women who in Paris always play such promiueut part in popular disturb ances. Here there was such a burst ol insult and execration that tho unfortu nate queen might well dread the possi bility of falling into such hands. Lut tho cart turned into the Rue Royale and reached the Place do la Re volution, where tho scaffold was erected As ihe queen passed before the Tuilerie* she turned with an earnest, lingering look. Tho scaffold was erected facing the garden of the Tuileries, before a status of Liberty, on the spot where the obe lisk now stands, and not where the king’s scaffold had stood, which was on the opposite side, facing the Champs Elysces. The priest attempted to assist her in alighting, but notwithstanding tho increased difficulty consequent on her tied hands she turned from him and stepped down firmly, with appar ent ease, as quickly ns she could, seem ing desirous to hasten tho end as far at possible. The executioner offered to as sist her in ascending tho scaffold, but sbe went up alone and quickly, imme diately going to tho plank on which she was to be bound. In doing so she trod on tho foot of tho executioner, who made a motion as of pain. With the kind courtesy which characterized her even in this last hour, she quickly ex claimed, “Pardon, monsieur!” in a tone of regret and apology. Tho executioner and his assistant then fastened her to the plank, and tore off her muslin ker chief, lest it should impede tho action of the knife. Tho last motion of Marie Antoinette was an involuntary attempt to bring forward her tied hands as a screen for her uncovered shoulders! • * * When tho executioner held up the head to tho populace, to the deep awo of the spectators, the face of Marie Antoinette expressed perfect conscious- ness and tho eyes looked on tho crowd! Tho expression was that of intense as tonishment, as of some wonderful vision revealed. ♦ ■ Daefness Cannot b: Cured by local applications, as they cannot reacli the (llveased portion of the ear.
