ECHOES OF THE FOURTH.
Our readers will find a detailed ac
count of the celebration of the Fourth
of July in the local columns of this
paper. Measured by all that usually
characterizes such celebrations, it
was a decided success, and Gaffney
owes a debt of gratitude to those of
her citizens who contributed their
money so liberally to the necessary
preparations, and to the local com
mittees who worked so energetically
and faithfully in carrying out the
program.
Our own impression i j that the
crowd was the largest ever assembled
at Gaffney or Limestone on any occa
sion. The people seemed to come
from everywhere—to rise up out of
the earth, to drop down out ox the
clouds. The extensive groves at
Limestone did not much more than
furnish standing room. And then
it was such a jolly good natured
crowd. We did not see a single case
of drunkenness, nor hear a single
profane utterance or word of anger,
All seemed in high good humor and
bent on making the most of the op
portunity which the occasion offered
for enjoyment. About the only ones
we saw who seemed at all hampered
in their operations were our county
candidates, and they certainly had
cause to he discouraged. The crowd
was too big lor them. They got lost,
bewildered, overwhelmed. They
looked like farmers do when they
find that they are overcropped and
that the grass and weeds are threat
ening to drive them out of their fields.
The people, too, seemed not to be in
the humor for politics. They were
taking a day off, and they had left
their politics at home or had thrown
them to the winds after they had
started. Neither were they much in
the humor for listening to public
speaking. Senator McLaurin de
livered a patriotic and eloquent ad
dress, but not more than one-tenth
of the crowd paid any attention to it.
The other nine-tenths were surging
to and fro, chatting and laughing
with their friends and mingling in a
jollification.
No one but a trained politician
could speak to such a crowd and
maintain his eqanimity and self-pos
session. But McLaurin seemed at
home and at his best, and he was
listened to by many with interest and
admiration.
We did not hear of a single acci
dent nor anything else to mar the
general pleasure, and we are bound
to believe that the general results of
the great gathering will be for good.
The strain of life was relaxed for a
day and men and women .took up its
burdens on Tuesday morning with
lighter hearts and fresher spirits,
and moved forward with more elastic
steps to the duties that lie before.
If there is one section of our coun
try more than another that should
keep green the memories called up
by the Fourth of July, it seems to us
that Gaffney and its surroundings
comprise that section. It is rich in
memories that should inspire every
man with patriotic pride. Along
the road by the Limestone Spring
one hundred and'" twenty years ago
the scattered remnants of Tarletions
legion fled from the fury of Morgan
and his heroes; and at a spot on the
avenue leading from the road
to the spring, tradition locates
the resting place of two Brit
ish soldiers, who, at Cowpens,
fought their last battle for tyranny
and oppression. If the Limestone
Spring is not the Big Dogwood Spring
of romance then it is nearby and is
celebrated in romance and story where
two patriots met and fought a whole
troop of renegades and traitors. Over
the hills U the north east rises in
blue outline the huge form of King’s
Mountain grim, silent, and grand,
jinu bearing perpetual though mute
testimony to tho deeds that once ,
crowned its lofty top with wreaths j
of immortal glory.
God bless our country, enriched
with the blood of patriots and heroes !
And God inspire us all with the am
bition to prove ourselves worthy of
the priceless heritage bequeathe! us
by our fathers!
OUR RESOURCES.
The abstract of personal property
in Cherokee county, recently made
out by tho Auditor, furnishes some
interesting facts and figures and, per
haps, more interesting suggestions.
According to this abstract there
are in the county 1,020 horses listed
for taxation at |ol,(>70, a small frac
tion over $31.00 a piece, which as an
average price, may do pretty well.
There are 2,131 mules, or more than
twice as many mules as horses,
listed at $71,201, or about $33.50
a piece. There are 4,104 head of
cattle valued at $35,374 or about
$8.00 a head.
The sheep and goats aro lumped
together and there are only 580 head
of both, valued at $G20. There are
2,250 hogs valued at $4,405. The
list of animals is closed with 1,320
dogs at $8,075 or a little over $5.00
each. We suppose dogs worth less
than $5.00 were not returned.
In the line of comforts and luxuries
we have 485 gold and silver watches,
or about one third as many watches
as dogs, valued at $4,602 against
nearly $7,000 in dogs, from which
facts wo might infer that those well
supplied with dogs don’t need
watches.
Carriages and buggies 2,300, valued
at $31,220: pianos and organs 232
valued at $10,345.
The total value of all personal
property in the county listed for tax
ation is $1,078,493.
The above selections from the ab
stract deserve *a careful perusal.
When our readers shall have studied
them to their satisfaction, we advise
them to let the faithful and irrepres
sible dog occupy a prominent place
in their closing reflections. It will
be observed that there are over 300
more dogs in the county than horses
and over 700 more dogs than sheep
and goats put together- And re
member, too, that the dogs are not
all here. We have little doubt but
that there are as many more not re
turned. The dog has little ambi
tion to have his name appear on the
tax books. The truth is there are
grave doubts in his mind as to whether
he is property or a member of the
family, and if property at all, whether
he is personal or real. It is true
that he can move about from place
to place with great facility and thus
far he must undoubtedly be classed
as personal; but then when we re
member that in many houses he is
as much a fixture and a sine qua non
as the well or the barn, it would
seem that he has indubitable claims
on the realty. But whatever he is,
if property at all, certainly no other
property ever enjoyed such tact at
playing with the owner’s conscience
or such facilities for keeping out of
the clutches of the tax gatherer as he
does. He can easily belong to Bud
or Sis, whose name is not on the Au
ditor’s books, and the tux payer of
the family may think no more of re
porting him to the Auditor than he
would cf Bud’s top or Sis’s doll.
And then if any sort of pressure
svere brought to bear, or any research
threatened or instituted, he could
just as easily belong to nobody for a
few days while returns are in demand,
converting himself into a certain
fortuitous quasi vagabond too valua
ble for anybody to kill and too worth
less for anybody to claim.
Hurrah! for the dog! In every
war that has been waged against
him, he has come out victorious,
and so long as he has so many
friends in the human family who
will fight for him and die for him if
need be, he may laugh at the hostile
acts of Legislatures and bid defiance
to all comers.
poor and maimed; and the difference
of u few dollars arbitrarily fixed by a
greedy and heartless corporation,
will keep hundreds and th§usands of
them away from a last reunion on
earth which they hoped to have with
the comrades of the clays of patriots
and heroes—of the days made immor
tal by deeds of devotion and daring,
by scenes of suffering and endurance,
by acts of unselfish sacrifice and
grand ft-als of valor, to which tho
history of the world furnishes no
adequate parallel.
But the old Confederate will not
complain. He is not given to com
plaining—that’s not his way. if it
suits him to go to Atlanta, he will go,
and pay the extra dollars extorted
from his hard and scanty earnings
without a word of remonstrance.
If the fact force itself upon him that
he cannot afford to spend the extra
dollars, then he will stay at home
and reflect upon the situation in si
lence. True, he would like to go and
mingle with his old comrades one
time more. He would like to feel in
his soul again the inspiration of the
sixties, to gaze into tho faces again
of some of the grand leaders of those
days, to revive the memories of his
dead comrades whose bones have been
bleaching under southern and north
ern suns for more than thirty years,
to shout again with the remaining
ones—comparatively few r now and
rapidly becoming fewer—of that com
pact host of 600,000 heroes, who
fought for four years against an
army of 2,81)5,028 enlisted men, COO
war ships and 35.000 sailors and who
twice crossed tho Potomac and grap
pled with the power of these almost
countless multitudes on their own
soil, and who never yielded the strug
gle until over 300,000 of their num
ber and over 1,000,000 of their foes
had gone down in the tide of war.
Oh! it would do his soul good and
make his old heirt leap again with
the wild joy of youth, to shout once
more with the lingering remnant of
that vanished host.
But the old Confederate will not
complain. He is used to wrong, and
to coldness and neglect more chilling
than flagrant wrong. He feels in
his soul that he has never been whip
ped, and he is not to be moved by
slights and taunts. Besides, just
across the shadowy border-land
through which his pathway now lies,
there hovers a vision before his dim
eyes, of another Re-union, which
claims his attendance. No greedy
corporal ion shall obstruct his journey,
no consideration of expense sluill de
lay Ins departure. There, wrong will
be righted; there, coldness and neg
lect may never congeal the fountain
of love; there the spirits of the true
and brave will mingle in a happy re
union forever.

PRESS OPINION.
RAILROADS AND THE REUNION
The Reunion of the Confederate
Veterans will be held in Atlanta,
beginning on the 20th and ending on
the 23rd instant. The railroads
thus far have insisted on a fare of one
cent a mile each way, and it is prob
able that no further concessions will
be made.
These rates are nearly double those
granted to the Reunion at Richmond
and Nashville, and that the roads
should suddenly “shut the gates of
mercy” and of charity against the
old Confederate in his declining
years, is another forcible illustration
of the fact that corporations have no
souls.
All of these veterans are now past
the priiue of life; many of them are
THE WAR.
During the last week great, events
have taken place at the seat of war—
events that have filled the country
with pride and rejoicings mingled
with sorrow for the brave men who
have fallen on the field of battle.
A series of bloody battles has been
fought before Santiago and the Span
iards have been driven from all the
outer defences into the city. Our
losses were heavy, certainly as many
us 1,000 men, perhaps 2,000 killed
and wounded.
Gen. Shatter telegraphed at one
time that he did not have men enough
to storm the city and would wait for
reinforcements. But after that tele
gram was sent the Spanish fleet in
the harbor which had aided in the de
fence of the city, was completely an
nihilated by Admiral Sampson, and
will put a new face on the situation.
Shafter then demanded the surrender
of the city granting twenty-four
hours, at theTequest of foreign con
suls, for non-combatants and foreign
ers to get out of the way. At the
latest accounts the Spaniards had
refused to comply with the demand.
But it is now only a question of time
when Santiago will fall. The naval
victory was one of the most complete
in the history of naval warfare,
eclipsing in some respects that of
Dewey at Manila. The Spanish Ad
miral Cervera is captured and every
one of his ships destroyed or cap
tured. He made a bold dash from
the harbor where he has been bot
tled up for four weeks, for liberty and
the open sea, and the result in a few
words is that the coast for sixty
miles is strewn with the wrecks of
his vessels, large numbers of his sea
men are at the bottom of the ocean,
and himself and over sixteen hundred
marines are prisoners of war.
All accounts agree that the Span
iards displayed superb heroism and
fought as long as their ships could be
kept above water. That they did not
escape is altogether owing to the fact
that their armored cruisers were ut-
A WORD TO CANDIDATES.
The county candidates and their
special friends are beginning to dis
play much activity. We have no
fault to find with them for that, but
we wish to remind them that their
zeal may easily carry them too far.
We take it for granted that when a
candidate treats on whiskey or pays
for barbecue or railroad tickets, or
attempts in any other way to put a
voter under obligations to him by
spending money on him. that candi
date is conscious of a lack of personal
merit and is endeavoring to supply
the defect by tho use of money.
There is no difference in principle be
tween such practices and tho pur
chasing of votes outright with money,
and the man who will buy a vote can
himself bo bought, and is not worthy
of a public trust.
There is another practice to which
we desire to call attention. Through
tho manipulations, no doubt, of the
candidates themselves, local clubs
are induced to pass flaming resolu
tions endorsing certain candidates
for office and the resolutions are sent
to this office for publication. Now,
that is unfair treatment of tho paper,
and if wo were to publish them, it
would be unfair to other candidates.
This paper has again and again an
nounced that it will not advocate tha
cause of any individual candidate.
If it should gratuitously publish such
resolutions, it would violate its
pledge, and incur the just censure of
all impartial and thinking men. Our
friends should remember, too, that a
newspaper is d’votid to public inter
ests, and that if* it gains and retains
public patronage, it must keep that
fact steadily in view. The public at
large has no use for a newspaper
which filJs its columns with matters
of private and individual interest.
Above all, the space of a newspaper
is a large part of its capital—its
main stock in trade. It is to the
proprietor exactly what the surface
of the farm is to the farmer, and it
would be just as reasonable to expect
the farmer to cover that surface with
crops of corn, cotton and wheat for
the special benefit of a neighbor, as
to expect a newspaper man to cover
his space with a crop of words and
sentences for the special benefit of
any particular individual. In both
cases tho proprietor would be left
with nothing to stand on.
We hope that our friends will see
the justice of our position, and that
none of them will further insist that
our paper shall be used either di
rectly or indirectly, as a medium to
reach the public in behalf of the in
terests of any candidate for office.

Does Baby
Thrive?
If your baby is delicate
and sickly and its food does
not nourish it, put fifteen
or twenty drops of Scott’s
Emulsion in its bottle three
or four times a day and you
will see a marked change.
We have had abundant
proof that they will thrive
on this emulsion when other
food fails to nourish them.
It is the same with larger
children that are delicate.
Scott’s Emulsion seems to be
the element lacking in their
food. Do not fail to try it if
your children do not thrive.
It is as useful for them in
summer as in winter.
