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.

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

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

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.
