ANOTHER CHAPTER.
One of the best provisions of the
war tax bill, as recently passed by
the Senate, is that which requires
every barrel of “adulterated” or
‘•mixed” Hour to be stamped with a
four-cent stamp, and to be plainly
marked or branded “mixed flour,”
together with the true weight of the
package, the names of the ingredi
ents contained, the names of the
manufacturer or packer and the
place where manufactured or packed.
This is a just and righteous tax,
and the pity is that it is not ten times
heavier. The adulteration of flour
has reached an extent of which few
people are aware. It is a crime in
the sight of heaven and ought to be
one among m*>n to be visited with
the severest punishment. But if we
have no laws that will reach it as a
crime, then let the tax levjing power
come down on it with such a heavy
hand that the rascals who perpetrate
it, will be driven out of the market
and honest manufacturers will be
able to make an honest living.
We have long been in the habit of
thinking that about all of the frauds
and humbugs of every kind come
from the north; but here is a letter
which was read in Congress the other
day by Senator Mason, which shows
that rascality is not confined to any
particular locality—that it will
thrive in a southern as well as a north
ern clime. The letter is from the
York Manufacturing Company,
Paints and Wood fillers, Greensboro.
X. C., and is addressed to a firm of
millers in Pennsylvania. It reads as
follows:
Greens no no, N. May ".—Gentlemen:
We invite your attention to our mineraline,
which is without doubt the greatest existing
discovery.
There is no Hour mill man who can afford
not to use it. for several reasons:
Your Hour will he much whiter and nieer.
It does not injure the flour in any way, is
not at ail injurious »o t the health, and by
uslne' mineraline you realize a margin of
from $4€0 to $1,000 on each ear load you use.
To secure a low freight rate, we mark it as
“ship stuff'.” We can furnish you mineraline
free on board the cars, your station, for high
/grade Hour, for $20 a ton, for medium grade
Hour at $10 per ton, for bread meal at JR’ per
ton and for feed meal at $8 per ton.
For a high grade Hour use 15 per cent,
mineraline, for medium grade flour use 1^
per cent, mineraline, for bread use 12 per
cent mineraline, and for feed meal use is per
cent mineraline. We furnish all our custo
mers with a mixer free of charge. This ma
chine will distribute completely any propor
tion desired, and costs nothing to attach.
All you have to do is to bore a hole in your
elevator pipe, elamp on the machine, attach
a cord to run it, Hll up the hopper, and set
the feed to the proportion desired.
Enclosed And sample of our mineraline
for medium grade flour.
You cannot afford to let your competitor
beat you In both <iuulDy and margin. We
would be glad to hear from you. Very truly
Yours.
The York Manufacturing Company,
Hy M. K. H.
Messrs. Fisher & Miller, Huntingdon, Pa,
An unalygifl of the mineraline ad
vertised in the above circular shows
that it is nothing but ground clay,
S5 per cent, of which is insoluble
even in acid. The other adulterants
which will be reached by the war
tax measure are barytes flour or
ground rock, which increases the
weight and adds to the whiteness of
the flour, while the most common
one of all Is known as corn flour
from which the gluten and sugar
have been extracted and the ingredi
ents bleached with sulphuric acid.
Such is the vile stuff bought at a
high price and eaten hy our people
under the inspiring name of patent
roller 100 per cent, flour; while our
fastidious housewives would consider
their tables dishonored, if by some
chance, a stray biscuit should ap
pear on them, made of the pure, rich,
yellow tinted flour which was truly
the stuff of life to our fathers and
mothers, and which made our
mothers beautiful and our fathers
healthy, strong and manly. Verily,
our people love to be humbugged,
and instead of the time-honored al
lotment of one peck of dirt to each
ii dividual in a life time, we require
bushels In n year. The supremo
court of the United Slates holds
(hat the sale of such goods cannot he
Interfered with by state laws without
violating the principles of interstate
commerce. So we’ll continue to buy
dirt and eat it, to complain of dys
pepsia and all its concomitant hor
rors, until our farmers shall die of \
the cotton craze and their children
shall learn what we all might have
learned in childhood, that color is
not and never cun be an element of
taste nor of nourishment to the hu
man stomach.
“UNCLE GEORGE'S” HLATFORM.
Col. Geo. D. Tillman, candidate
for Governor, announces about u
five column platform in the State
papers. He bandies the dispensary
with gloves olT, indeed, treats it as
the main issue of the campaign.
He characterizes the dispensary “an
unwise, corrupt, and extravagant
failure,” and supports the character
ization by facts and figures, that
seem to be incontrovertible. The
cost of running the dispensary he
shows to be over !)>2(>0,000 per annum.
It has about oOO officers and em
ployes scattered about the State and
fully equipped for manipulating
elections for the “machine.” The
State and towns are entitled only to
so much of the proceeds of dispen
sary sales as remain after all expen
ses are paid, and there is very little
that so remains, nearly all of it being
absorbed in "the salaries, wages,
fees, shortages, and stealages of the
500 officers, agents, and employes,
who get twice or three times as
much pay as they ought, and should
be made to hustle lor a living, culti
vating cotton at five cents or toiling
at other hard jobs, these hard times,
like other people.”
He is opposed to supporting the
public schools by profits on whiskey
and to taxing the white man’s prop
erty to educate the negro. He ar
gues with great ability that no muni
cipal corporation should enjoy any
part of the profits on whiskey
whether sold by a dispensary State
officer or by a private license of a
county. He is in favor, in accord
ance with his well known views on
county government, of referring the
whole whiskev question to the coun
ties for solution, and of letting each
county decide for itself whether it
will have prohibition, a dispensary,
or licensed barrooms conducted
under dispensary regulations. He
proposes further that each county
that may choose to have whiskey sold
in any form shall apply the profits
to county expenses and improve
ments, and predicts that under such
an arrangement county taxes could
be greatly reduced.
If the people are careless about the
reduction of taxes and do not aspire
to extensive improvements, they
ought to have enough patriotism
and gratitude to collect a county
license and divide it in pensions
among the poor old crippled and
diseased Confederate soldiers and
their widows, instead of letting a
gang of smugglers and four or five
hundred dispensary sinecures and
legalized robbers appropriate all the
prolitsof whiskey selling in the State.
The United States levies a revenue
tax of $1.10 cts a gallon on whiskey
mostly to pay pensions to Federal
soldiers, and why couldn’t each
county in South Carolina pension
its own soldiers and dedicate its
county license to that purpose.
Georgia, with a population of only
about one third more than South
Carolina pays her old soldiers about
$500,000 every year, while South
Carolina, pays only $100,000 to her
maimed and aged veterans. Coi.
Tillman is a strong man and he has
put forth a strong platform, and he
will make a strong, manly race for
Governor.
ENTRIES FROM OUR DAY BOOK.
Mr. G. Walt. Whitman, of Jones-
ville, has filed his pledge us a candi
date for Governor. He has equipped
himself with a bicycle on which he
proposes to ride down all opposition.
If Walt be not the next Governor, it
will be entirely oweing to a scarcity
of votes.

The 1st Regiment of South Caro
lina volunteers under Col. Alston is
now at Chickamauga, while the Bat
talion under Maj. Thompson is still
in Columbia. The regiment moved
in two detachments, one of which
passed through Spartanburg where
the citizens turned out in great num
bers and gave the boys quite an ova
tion.
The Charleston Tost issued lust
week what is called “A Deep Water
Edition,” comprising 105 pages, all
crowded with information about the
grand old city of Charleston—Us
splendid people, itfl resources, its
history, and its prospects. We do
not know when we ever before saw
such a magnlficient specimen of
newspaper enterprise.
♦ ♦ ♦ ♦
The State pol'tical campaign
opens to-day at Orangeburg. There
are seven candidates for Governor
and numbers of others anxious to
servo the people in lower offices.
The Prohibition Executive Committee
has annulled the “Suggestions” of
the Prohibition Convention, and the
candidates on that ticket will run as
Democrats on their individual merits.
The main issue is whiskey, and the
light is triangular, the dispensary,
prohibition, and high license, occupy
ing the three corners.
A knot in nautical measurements
is something over 2,025 yards, or not
far from miles. The government
now has a number of gun boats in
process of construction, which will
make HO knots «n hour. That is
nearly fl5 miles an hour—good rail
road speed. Imagine one of these
iron clad monsters plunging full tilt
against a wooden man of war and
you will get a picture of horror com
pared with which the pictures drawn
by geologists of combats of sea mon
sters in Devonian times, will dwindle
into insignificance.
♦ ♦ ♦ ♦
Yellow fever has appeared at Mc
Henry, Miss., near Ocean Springs,
where it made its first appearance
last year. This is early in the year
for it to begin its ravages in this
country, and it is fearful to contem
plate its prevalence in Southern
towns until the first frost next fall.
If it strikes our armies it will prove
a more powerful ally of Spain than
would be all the nations of Europe
combined. Without its active aid,
the hot climate of the tropics may
be counted on to do a far more dead
ly work among our volunteer troops
than Spanish ships and armies can
ever accomplish.
We believe that President McKin
ley during his short administration,
has done more towards obliterating
sectional prejudice and uniting the
South and the North in feeling as
well as name than ail the otherPresi-
dents that have occupied the White
House since the war. It is time that
the conditions are favorable to mutual
conciliation, but it is true also that the
President has proved himself to be a
broad minded, liberal-hearted, far-
seeing patriot. In his appointment
of Southern ofileers he has shown
that he himself is free from all sec
tional prejudice; and in the honest,
strenuous efforts he made to avert
the horrors of war he proved both his
patriotism and benevolence.
♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ •
The phrase “old veterans” is not
current in the editorial sanctum of
the Ledger. W« should as soon say
“an old aged-man” or an “old old-
tree.” We don’t cull every thing that
pleases us nice, either. We endorse
Pope’s “nice bee” and we sometimes
speak of nice distinctions, discrimi
nations, tastes, and such things.
Indeed, if we were in a very imagina
tive frame of mind, we might be led
into the doubtful propriety of saying
“a nice girl;” but if hy a slip of the
tongue we should apply the epithet
to a young man of taste and a nice
appreciation of words, we should
apologize to him and tell him that
we did not mean to hurt his feelings.
♦ ♦ ♦ ♦
It is said that German army officers
speak with great contempt of the
slow movements of this government
in prosecuting the war and cite them
as proof of the vqst superiority of the
European military system. It is
true that our country must necessa
rily go to the war slowly owing to the
fact that she does not keep herself
on a war footing in time of peace,
oppressing her people with the bur
den of large standing armies. She
can afford to move slowly and to be
indifferent alike to the contempt of
German officers and the impatience
of American newspapers. She is con
scious of her strength, knows her
game cannot escape, and is not afraid
of either invasion or defeat.
♦
The army of invasion has at last
sailed from Tampa, if there is any
truth in press reports, and it is ex
pected to land on Cuban soil by to
day, having left Key West Sunday
night. The army consists of about
27,000 men of all arms, and left in
thirtv-two transports conveyed by
twenty war ships, Gen. Sbafter is in
command
The Americans have gained a foot
ing near Santiago and are holding
with a small body of marines as a
landing place, it is thought for the
main army. On last Sunday these
marines were attacked by the Spanish
troops and defended themselves for
thirteen hours against vastly superior
numbers finally driving off the
Spaniards. Several of the marines
were killed, among them Surgeon
John Gibbs, a native of Richmond,
Va.
♦ ♦ ♦ ♦
It is a matter of pride that the
most during feats of the war thus far
have been performed by Southern
men. The first life saciiliced in ac
tual battle was that of Ensign Bagley,
of North Carolina. Lieut. Hobson
who curried the Merrimac into the
harbor of Santiago, and sank her un
der circumstances that promised a
thousand chances of death to one of
life, is an Alabamia; while Victor
Blue,who with twelve men in an open
bout recently ran the gauntlet of
Spanish gun boats and first plaited
the American flag on the main land
of Cuba, and returning captured two
Spanish vessels, is from our own
Palmetto State. The descendents of
the men who followed Lee and Jack-
son, manned the Merrima£in Hamp
ton Roads, and rode the ocean waves
with Semmes and Maury,-Ure prov
ing themselves worthy of the glori
ous heritage uequeathed them by
their fathers.
♦ ♦
The truth at last comes out con
cerning the riot of the United States
colored troops in Tampa, Fla., and
for outrage and infamy it almost
surpasses credulity. They broke up
saloons, raided cafes and perpetrated
crimes too shocking to name in
print. The reign of terror they in
stituted lasted for about twelve
hours, and the civil authorities and
the provost guard were both alike set
at defiance. A regiment of Georgia
volunteers at last arrived on the
scene and quelled the rioters, or their
orgies, it seems, would have been
protracted and extended indefinitely.
And these are soldiers of the regular
army in which strict military discip
line is supposed to be maintained!
These ure representatives of a race
that are clamoring for the rights and
honors of citizenship in a civilized
country! Send them to the Philip
pines as food for the Malays. They
are a disgrace both to the army and
to their race.
Chairman Haselden, of the State
Board of Control, makes a vigorous
report in which he exposes a good
deal of crookedness in dispensary
matters. Shortages come to light
that have been in existence for three
years, though the accounts have been
made to conform all that time with
charges in the central office, break
age in many cases has been far be
yond what the circumstances would
seem to justify, and there is a mild
hint that somebody knows how the
breakage occurs ; while dispensers in
arrears make big profits by settling
with the State at invoice prices,
thereby turning the difference be
tween these and selling prices to the
account of personal profit—a differ
ence covering a matter ox 50 to 150
per cent.
With all these little fragrant irreg
ularities, however, the big gin mill
hums to the tune of $20,000 a week,
cash up, and no grumbling on the
part of the consumer.
'
Now the Government must have
the “sinews of war,” and a bond is
sue of $200,000,000 is authorized.
The Secretary of the Treasury issues
a circular giving particulars, and in
viting the people to come down with
the cash wlthiu a period of thirty-
four days.
The bonds will bear interest at the
rate of 3 per cent, per annum, pay
able quarterly and are to be redeemed
at the pleasure of the Government
any time after ten years. In order
that too much money may not be
suddenly withdrawn from circulation
those taking bonds to the amount of
$500 or more, are allowed to pay for
them in 20 per cent, installments.
Preference is given in many ways to
small bonds. It adds to the strength
and stability of any government to
owe as many of its own people as
possible, but let no individual at
tempt to follow such an example.
An individual will find that the
greater number of people he owes the
more precarious will become bis
stability.
Holly Grove Hints.
(Correspondence of Tim Ledger.)
Holly Grove, June ll.—The far
mers of this section would appreciate
a rain now. Wo haven’t had any
rain of any consequence in about
seven weeks.
Cotton and corn is looking as well
as could be expected, owing to the
extremely dry weather.
Farmers have begun to reap their
wheat.
Mr. J. M. Martin is building a nice
\ dwelling house on his place.
Mrs. E. J. Sepoch has been on tl.e
sick list, but is about well now.
Miss Nellie Martin has been sick a
day or two.
Some of the boys of this commu
nity don’t weigh as much as they
did before the war begun. 1 don’t
think they need to be afraid of hav
ing to go to the war yet.
The Ledger has advised the far
mers to stop planting so much cotton
and raise something to eat. It is
not too late to sow peas after harvest,
plant peas and if the war continues
you will find it the best.
