Aguinaldo may be a savage and an all-round rascal, but he is a man of pluck and resources, and his heroic stand for liberty entitles him to the respect if not the admiration, of mankind. That a people who with stood the power of Spain for 300 years and who have successfully resisted the power of the I'nited States for nearly twelve months, should still be butchered on humani- tarion grounds, is surely the climax of injustice and hypocrisy. Clemson College reports a surplus of $10,000 on hand from last year. But don’t think for a moment that Clemson has made money. Bless your soul! no; Clemson was not es tablished to make money, but to spend it; and this $10,000 is the amount left after spending all that he. she, or it wanted. Fortunate Institution! to have such a generous patron as the State of South Caro lina, to pour into its coffers till they run over to the tune of $10,000! ♦ ♦♦ ♦ That was a keen and merciless ’ thrust Senator Tillman made in the ! senate I ho oilier day at the Republi- j can Imperialistic party when he met | their plea that the Filipinos are in- j capable of governing themselves, by reminding them of what they thought the negroes of the South were capa ble of doing thirty years ago, when this s une party set them up to gov ern not only themselves but an in telligent and highly civilized race of white pci-pie besides.

They make charge after charge o.. the enemy with a pluck and determination worthy of a nobler cause. When the light is over we shall recommend that every one of them be breveted for gallant conduct on the Held. ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦■ We are glad that the child labor bill was. defeated. The Legislature lias no more right to enterfere with the relations existing between par- j ent and child than it has to send an j knife and two revolvers, nothing could be proved on him. Mr. Goebel attempted to draw his own revolver as he fell. It seems that ever}b,<dy in Frankfort is armed to the teeth, and further trouble is greatly feared. If Kentucky had come out squarely with the South and taken her whip ping along with the Confederacy, per haps she wouldn’t now care so much whether Goebel or Taylor be gover nor. The mountain distillers and the blue grass stock raisers who are shouting themselves hoarse for one or the other of the gubernatorial con testants and carrying whole batteries of revolvers for big guns, would never know by results if they were at home attending to business, whether Tay lor or Goebel was Governor. It is wonderful how socialistic ideas are spreading and growing in our midst. The strong, healthy, simple, and wise principles of govern ment formulated by our fathers, and under the operations of which, this country rapidly became strong, pros perous, and happy, are ignored with silent contempt or overwhelmed with ruthless scorn. The ship of state has swung loose from her safe moor ings and i.-rdrifting on seas of un known depth towards the rocks and roof of unknown coasts. The indi vidual is being gradually dwarfed and absorbed. The limbs are shriveling for the want of sustenance withdrawn for the nourishment of the head. The man is sacrificed that the State may flourish. The State formerly existed for the man; the man now exists for the State. Nearly one- huif of tiie Senate of South Carolina voted the other day to establish a State fertilizer factory. This was in strict accord with the course of everts. It is an easy step from the dispensary to a fertilizer factory, and from both or either, the State will find itself easily drawn into o'ner channels of trade in which ’u must crush competition; and sc. it must go on until it assumes cpntrol of all branches of business and does exact justice to all classes of its citizens, that is, puts all clashes on exactly the same level.

(Correspondence of The Ledger.) SrxxYsmE, Jan. 31.—What bus be come of J. L. S. and Pruella? We want to hear from them again. If they had kept on last year us they started everybody in this neighbor hood would have subscribed.for The Ledger. But they stopped all at once. I am only a school boy and want to learn all 1 can without pul ing myself down as knowing a great deal, and I will ask both of them a few questions which I hope they will agent to every farm in the state and I answer, without asking me any as 1 instruct the fanner as to what sort of work and how much he shall re quire of his horses. If the fanner ubuses his horses unmercifully there is a law to punish him, and there is far more reason for sucli a law than any that could be framed for the protection of a child; for Gud him self has established for the benefit of the child a stranger and more bind ing law than all the Legislatures on earth Could enact—the law of paren tal love. The Legislature is the child of the people. It is fast com- ing'to think that'it is the father of them. Since we last paid our respecls to our plucky friends, the ; Bucrs, they have given the British troops another itsound thrashing, filled England with alarm, and the world with admiration for their enterprise and valor. The British General Bulkr is in fill! re treat, having lost an entire division, and British papers say that England has not sutfered such a disaster since tiie surrender f Yorktown. If we remember correctly, President Kru ger informed England that if she did force a war upon his people, they would miike her pay a price at which ’ the’world'would ^fand aghast. He is making good his words, and the price is not yet paid by half. The rations of Europe have nf-yer before had such an o|jportunity to humble England as the present crisis affords, and it will bo strange jf Some or all 'id ibejn do not take*: auvilntuco of it. ♦ * ♦ The polK^al irnto-nglm in Kentucky Y t(1 rorCJ - t,n confess 1 have a poor education, and they are both teachers: What was the name of McClellans bat tle horse?

No new machinery will he put in just at present, but a good deal of money will be expended in fixing the machinery in use. New floors will be built all through the mill, and the interior of the building will be painted. Ton new cottages will be erected and there will he other improvements.

The Time is Approaching for the Confed erate Veteran's Reunion in Louisville. Hon. Wm. .Jefferies* Call is Timely and Should ho Heeded. (Correspondence of The Ledger.) Etta Jane, Jan. 30.—We have ver itable winter weather now, and the people have practically suspended out-door work and gone to making fires and sitting by them. The Christian Endeavor Society had a good meeting at airs. Amanda Lee’s on Sunday evening. There will be no new moon during the nionfh of February. January and March each have two new moons. This will not occur again in fifty-six years. Mr. John T. Whitesides, of Hickory Grove, is quite unwell. He has been confined to his room for about a year. Dr. J. T. Darwin, of Blacks burg, is his physician. We have known Mr. Whitesides for « great many years as an upright, honorable, high-toned gentleman, and in his af fliction he and his family have our profoundest sympathy. Mr. H. B McDaniel, of Hickory Grove, and his folks, have done more fencing this winter than anybody we know of. They have cut and split rails and fenced in a iarge pasture. If all our farmers would use their old-field pines, young poplars and the timber suitable for the purpose of making fences, as they have done, vr.ve would get cheaper. One of the best tilings happened at one of our neighboring towns a few days ago, we have heard of in a long time, and we will be pardoned for re peating it, even if we do leave tiie I names blank. Its a compliment to tiie good people of Blacksburg as well as Cherokee county in general. A former citizen of the town we allude to moved to Blacksburg some time last year. A few days ago he return ed to his old home on a business tour when he was accosted hy one of tiie local merchants who, in a spirit of levity, said to him : “Hello Colonel, you’ve got to wearing better clothes since you went to Blacksburg, than you used to.” “Yes,” was the re ply, and “I’ve got to keeping better company than I used to. too.” Mr. F. A. Goforth’s little son, Her bert, is wery s>ok. Mr. Frank MoCluney is leaching the Wilkinsville school. Oar friend, Mr. J. Bmce, killed some very line home-raised hogs Just Auek, net ling over 300 pounds a piece. Wo are sorry to hear of so many people getting cut with axes this winter Fully a half dozen cases have been reported to us within two months. Mason Pridraore is now nursing a wounded foot from an axe cut. The time is fast approaching when tiie United Confederate Veterans will hold their national reunion in the city of Louisville, Ky., and now is the time for tiie old veterans and their friends to begin to make prepa rations for that occasion. The ' Blue Grass” boys say this shall be second to no reunion in the history of the organization. It is generally believed that the railroads will do as much, or even more, than they ever have done for the accommodation of veterans and visitors. The time embraced in the reunion proper will bo from May 30th to June 3rd, inclusive. Nothing within the power of those Kentuckians to ac complish will he left undone that w ill tend to the pleasure of the occa sion. All the Louisville pulpits will bo occupied by the old confederate chaplains on the 3rd of June. Dur ing the few days of tlieir sojourn in the city it will bo virtually turned over to the Confederates. The great parade will be on Saturday, June 2. Wo hope Cherokee county will be represented. Communion services will be held at Sdlttn next Sabbath, according to previous appointment. Rev. J. P. Marion will officiate. Preaching is expected to begin at 11 a. no. The church session will meet at 10:3U a. in. for the reception of members and transaction of any business com ing before it. In behalf of the church and congregation we take great pleasure in extending a cordial invi tation to all other denominutions to attend and take part in the exercises. Her many friends, within the ra dius of the Ledger’s circulation, will be glad to know that Mrs. Washing ton McKown, of Cornwell, whose sickness has been reported in this correspondence, has regained her normal state of health. She is a no ble woman and her children are such men ami women as any State might well afford to be proud of. “Our correspondent is becoming somewhat pessimistic”—sounds like we had curried the wrong way. Well, when we, hear the com plaints of tax payers every day and all about the same thing, we feel it is our duty to speak for them, as well as ourself. This we have done and intend to do. We despise the ways of a constitutional grumbler, but when a man or set of men have good room to complain they ought, after exhausting all oilier means, to speak out. Hon, William Jefferies' call to the furmety it* timely and should bo heeded. Compare one year with an othea, any farmer who u'-es it wij! tell yob that gtTnno dori’t pay and to in crease ■(•he price of it oyer that of last y. ar is ffullicient to fnake them kick. Our lotah dealers - are not responsible for tlifn advance, and will no doubt join the farmers in serving notice on thiuOAtuifacturers to keep it at home it on the market a’t ^r u funner to get $10.00 a bale on bis cotton over that of lust year, has ruined the guano men. If t.Vy will consider that only half a crop was made last year they will see why farmers object to giving more for fertilizers this year. J. C. Huggins and Minnie Greer have correctly answered our boatman question. The time is 30 minutes. In how many ways can all the numbers from one to sixteen be ar ranged in a square, four columns each way, so that each column added per pendicularly, horizontally or diago nally, will give the same sum that any four numbers forming an exact square will give when added togeth er. In our letter of January 20th, we are made to say, “torrid zone” rather than temperate zone. J. h. s. OUR SCHOOL SYSTEM. PROCEEDINGS OF THE LEGISLATURE. Condensed Report of theWork of Our Law-Makers. Despite tli<‘ Promise of Politicians There is no Improvement in It. (Correspondence of The Ledger.) Providence, S. C., Jan. 31—From the earliest of our recollection we were promised by the office holders and office seekers to have longer terms and better schools. It was three months then and its three now. We need better common schools the only school that benefits tiie masses of the State. These so called insti tutions for higher education benefit only a small number of the chosen pets of which Cherokee will never bo benefitted bv, except in paying her quota of expenses. Again our teach ers are not paid enough for their time. If they were paid five or ten dollars more per month we could keep the best teachers in schools and not be forced to take any one who we can get. Our teachers chould be paid as much us they cun get to fill a posi tion in a a dry goods store, but under the present system they are only paid from $lf> to $25 per month. Can our officers not remedy this? We think they can. Surely there is a balm in Gilead, and I know there are plenty physicians here. Why, then, cannot a better system be brought about? For some cause unknown to us our law-makers do not even try to amend tills present system, which is of vast importance to the masses. There is no question before us of greater value, because its our de pendence for educating our children, but as it is now they cannot get a primary education. Let the people come together as one man and vote for better free schools all over the State. We need them and we can get them providing we begin right, and t hen go ahead. We have noticed children at the end of the term who could master some of their studies splendidly but by the time the next term (3 months) rolled around they had to begin at the be ginning having been kept out of school so long they hud forgotten what they learned twelvemonths age. Its a plain case of negligence on our tart. Like the cut in the well that came up two feet and fell back three, we are going down hill along this line. With eight or ten months, or even six, per year it would benefit us in more ways than educate our chil dren, for if other States didn’t follow suit our population would increase rapidly. We hope to see others writing upon this subject, and if we are wrong in our argument lot them show us wherein and make it plain, then we will submit, otherwise we will probably say more upon the subject later on. Buster. Furman University Fuctn. (Correspondence of Tiie Lodger.) Firman University, Greenville, Jan. 30.—Another month has almost elapsed and the old walls of Furman have been made glad by the enroll ment of several new students since the holidays. A most interesting game of foot ball was played last Friday afternoon between the University and town boys. The game was very tight, the score being 5 to 0 in favor of Furman. The annual public debate of the Phi'.osophean Literary Society was held in the college chapel Frduy evening January 20. Tiie program was well rendered, and the students deserve great credit for the excellent and forcible tnanm r in which they read and declaimed. It may be in teresting to the people of Gaffney to know that one of her boys took u very prominent part in the exercises. Gen. Z. M. McCraw, J. Edwin Lip scomb, Esq , Dr. Jamie Lodge and l‘rof. Allison Hickson are indebted to some kind friends of Limestone for copies of the “Limestone Star,” and these gentlemen are at a loss to know who were so kind as to favor them with this most interesting pa per.

Company THE APPELT BILL KILLED The Senate Adopted the Aluyliehl Substi tute to the Hmytlon Hill With Amend ments—House Rolls tiie ITince I’rohliii- tion Hill. (Correspondence of The Ledger.) CoLUMiiTA, Jan. 30.—Mr. Patton’s resolution looking to a constitutional amendment to enable bond-burdened cities to build city improvements was adopted by a vote of 101 to 10. It only applies to Columb iti, C harl cs- ton, Georgetown and Hock Hill. The resolution to allow the Caro- lira National Bank to bring suit against the State to recover the value of two notes endorsed by Col. Neal was adopted. Mr. Sawyer’s bill to validate the grand jury of Union county, was ordered to its third reading. Mr. Sawyer’s bill to provide for in cidental expenses for the county offi cers of Union connty was given its second reading without discussion. Mr. Bacot’s bill giving Charleston the same privilege in primary elec tions as the balance of tiie state went to its third reading. Mr. llagsdale’s resolution looking to a constitutional amendment grant ing divorces in cases of adultery re ceived a favorable report. Tiie Appelt local option bill, after an able speech in its behalf by Mr. Appelt and strong reasons given why it should he enacted into a law by Senators Barnwell, Livingston and Marshall, was killed by a vote of 25 to 12. The new assessment bill, which provided for township and county boards of assessors, was reported by a majority of the finance Committee without recommendation. Senator Graydon made u favorable minority report recommending its passage. The bill was discussed at length by Senators Graydon, Manning, Mown and Gruber. On the notion to strike out tiie enacting words, the result was 23 yeas and 12 nays. The night session of the senate was consumed by the discussion of tiie Graydon dispensary bill and numer ous amendments thereto. After much discussion it was agreed that the vote should be taken on the di rect question whether the dispenser shall he elected by the people, Sena tor Hendeson consenting to divide his amendment. The result was against the election by the people by a vote of 25 to II. Numerous other amendments were then offered to the bill, and one by Senator Sheppard, that the dispenser be elected by the legislature, was adopted. The senate then adjourned. Coi.rMniA, Jan. 31 —The senate today adopted the Mayfield substi tute to the Graydon bill with amend ment. An effort was made to have county boards consist of the supes- visor, mayor or intendant, and fore man of the grand jury, but finally boards were left to be selected as at present, with the exception that the senate must confirm them. Dispen sers are to be elected hy county boards. Constables now serving and to be appointed must give bond of $500. The State board continues to fix the profit on liquor for State and counties. Tim hill passed to third reading with notice of amendments on third reading. An unfavorable report was made on the house bill reducing the fertili zer tax. In the house there was a dip at tlv dispensary legislation, but further than kill the Prince prohibition bill by a vote of 70 to 20, nothing much was done. The expressions were all entirely opposed to the present board of control. Governor McSweeny presented a message urging the establishment of an industrial and geological survey of the State. The Federal govern ment offers to expend an amount equal to the expenditure of the State. Patton’s resolution looking to an amendment of the constitution as to city debt passed third reading in the house, only two voting against it. There was much discussion over the bill fixing the legal weight for a bushel of meal, but the bill was finally recommitted. The bill passed the house allowing police and peace officers to wear w'eapons concealed. House adjourned the debate o: the dispensary bills until Friday I o wait on the senate bill as passed.
