NOTES and comments.
If the legislature carry out all of
the recommendations of Superin
tendent Mc.Viahtyn, it will construct
one oVthe hugest and most danger
ous political machines that has been
operated in this state since 1876.
With it and the dispensary machine
coupled together, their political
power will be irresistible. Mark
these words.

We hope that the veterans and the
young men and women will turn out
in large numbers at the meeting in
commemoration of Lee’s birthday,
tomorrow at 11 a. m , in the audito
rium at Limestone College. We do
not know that there is any set pro
gram for the occasion, but the ob
jects of the meeting are such as
ought to appeal to every patriotic
and generous heart.
♦ ♦ ♦
It would be amusing, if it were not
a serious matter, to witness the glee
ful exuberance o'f state officials,
when they talk about the great in
crease in taxable property shown by
the latest returns. The average of
ficial appears to think that the sole
object of the existence of property is
taxation. But for that, it wouldn't
be worth a thought, much less de
serving of the efforts, that men put
forth to obtain it. And really, as
about the only use the State can
make of the property of its citizens is
to tax it, perhaps the politician’s
view, from his standpoint, is about
right after all.
The matter of representation in
congress having been settled, our leg
islature can now go to work intelli
gently in re-districting the State.
The present districts are about as
unsatisfactory as they well could be.
The reasons for their present shapes
and boundaries no longer exist, and
while it will be a difficult matter to
have districts established in accord
ance with the new census without di
viding counties, still our legislature
should exert itself to come as near to
such divisions as possible. Coun
ties ought not to be divided, even if
population should fall a little below
or rise a little above the required
standard.
tion, will have to be committed, be
fore the negroes will learn that there
Is one crime which cannot and will
not bo tolerated? If their leaders, in
stead of heaping all of their indig-
i mint abuse on lynching, would di
rect a portion of it against the crime
which provokes lynching, there
would be far greater tangible results.
The negroes who commit this crime
are perhaps in many cases ignorant
both of its heinous nature and of the
fearful consequences. They don’t
read the papers, and they don’t hear
anything from their leaders In con
nection with the crime, but a pro
test against the penalty. Let their
leaders direct their engergies for
awhile against this crime, and lynch-
ings will stop, because tbe occasion
for them will no longer exist.
SHORT LOCAL ITEMS.
Local Items Too Short for a Head Grouped
ToKetber.
The State Sunday School Conven
tion will be held in Newberry Feb.
25th to 27tb, inclusive.
Walter Baker has had the lot be
tween big store and Flncken'g ba
kery enclosed by a neat fence.
Since tbe holidays there have been
several new names placed upon tbe
roll of pupils in Limestone College.
A few of our farmers in the county
sowed outs last week. Some say
that from now on for three or four
weeks will be the safest time to sow.
Shuford & Lemaater are receiving
daily shipments of furniture for their
new emporium. They are rapidly
filling up their large store-room and
their stock is an elegant one.
Cap. Tbackston la still working on
Limestone street and having the
sidewalks both beautified and
strengthened by fortifying them with
curbstones of solid masonary.
Mr. Belk, who was at one time in
the furniture business here, has come
back to Gaffney and is now with R. A.
Jones & Co. as salesman. Mr. Beltc’s
friends are glad to have him with
them again.
Itev. A. M. Ross, of Kings Moun
tain, is closing up his work as pastor
at that place and will soon leave for
tbe Southern Baptist Theological Sem
inary in Louisville Ky. The best
wishes of his friends here will go
with him.
Eggs are still scarce, as well as
other country produce. Prices from
the wagons are: Butter, 15, chickens,
15 to 25, according to size; eggs 15
and 20; corn, 65; fodder, $1.75; hay
60; sweet potatoes, 50 to 75. There
ought to be good money in a dairy
and truck farm at this place.
County Supervisor Whelchel gives
the public notice in another column
of this paper that he will be in his
office certain days in the week for the
transaction of county business.
Those who have business with tbe
supervisor will save themselves
trouble by reading bis notice.
There are about a dozen prisoners
in tbe county jail at present; three
on the charge of murder, and the
others for various petty offenses.
They are all well treated and having
as good a time as possible under tbe
circumstances. The jail is a comfort
able place, as is evidenced by the
fact that water has never been
known to freeze in any part of tbe
building.
Three of a Kind.
On Sunday last Mr. Eugene Wiley
and Miss Fannie Crocker, both of the
The smallpox situation is threat
ening. Tbe disease appears to be
gaining ground in Spartanburg,
though it is still confined to the
colored population. These people
are constitutionally opposed to vac
cination, and are as migratory as
wild pigeons. If they could by any
possible means be brought to realize
tbe importance of protecting them
selves and others against this loath
some disease, it could soon be
stamped out. All thoughtful people
will see to it that they and their
familes are J vaccinated, and those
who cannot be made to believe that
there is any such a thing as small
pox and who declare that vaccina
tion is dangerous and foolish, will
have to take their chances. If they
escape tbe penalty of their reckless
folly, it will be because so many
others, wiser than they, have pro-
• teeted themselves, that the diietse
will not generally spread.
♦ ♦ ♦ ♦
The United States Supreme court
has decided that Neely, tbe carpet
bagger, who embezzled funds in Cuba,
and then fled back to the United
States for protection, must be de
livered to the Cuban authorities.
This decision has an importance far
beyond any consideration attaching
to Neely. It declares indlreetly that
• Cuba is a foreign power and not a
conquered province, that the decla
ration of congress at tbe beginning
of tbe war with Spain must stand,
and that Cuba Is and of right ought
to be a free and Independent state.
The decision, as we regard it, gives
Imperialism one black eye looking
towards the east. We hope that the
Supreme court or some other power
will soon blacken the other eye look
ing towards the Philippines. With
both eyes blinded, perhaps tbe mon
ster would keep quiet, or at least be
incapacitated for anything worse
than growling and cursing.

Again the usual crime has been
perpetrated in Barnwell county and
the utiual lynching has followed.
How many of these doul 1c crimes
that sicken the heart of humanity
and blacken the records of olvlliza-
Gaffney cotton mill village, were
joined in marriage by magistrate
William Phillips, at bis residence in
this city.
Mr. Phillips seems to be in great
demand by the young couples in this
section who are seeking marital re
lations. He was particularly In de
mand about Xmas time, and married
three couples at his residence during
the holidays. The first of tbe three
were Mr. Ben Gordon, who lives just
above the city, and Miss Mor
row, of Rutherford county, near
Forest City, N. C. Next, Mr. Joe
Poole and Miss Cleo Isler, both of
Gaffney, were made one in bis pres
ence, and the other has already been
mentioned In Tbe Ledger. These are
ail worthy young people and many
friends wish them long life and much
happiness.
The Special License Tax.
In this issue we publish the special
license tax of the city council to
raise supplies for the fiscal year
1901-2- The license is practically
what It has been for the past two
years. Being somewhat acquainted
with the needs of the town we can
assert that it is not possible for the
city to get on with less finance than
the bill provides, but we have tbe
assurance of Mayor Littlejohn that
in all human probability tbe special
tax after next year will be cat down,
and It is probable tbfVin a few years
it will be abolished. It takes money
to run a town, and.the bigger it gets
the more money it takes. If we are
ever to have a city we must not be
niggardly In contributing to the city
government.

GAFFNEY BONDS SELL HIGH.
Tli« Witter hikI Electric Light Itoixl* Bring
Kancy Trices,
In December the Board of Public
Works of Gaffney advertised in the
Bond Buyer, published in New York,
that they would offer for sale ou
January 15th $15,000 worth of water
works and electric light bonds. At
noon Tuesday the bids were opened
In the office of Chairman of the
Board N. H. Littlejohn’s office.
There were ten bidders and the bids
ranged from one-eighth of one cent
above par to seven and one-* bird
cent above par. The latter bid was
made by Roby Robinson, of Atlanta,
and the bonds went to him. This is
the highest price that a bond bus
ever been sold at by Gaffney, though
Gaffney bonds have been iseugd bear
ing six per cent, while these bonds
only bear five per cent. This sale
speaks well for the credit of the town
and shows what we are thought of
financially by people who have money
to invest.
Work of the General Assembly.
(Correspondence of The Ledger.)
Columbia, S. C., Jan. 17.—The work
of the General Assembly up to this
date has been somewhat slack, but as
the days come the work increases,
and by the first of next week the ma
chinery will be well oiled and work
ing.
Tbe usual number of bills will be
considered this session, judging from
the way the bills are now piling in,
aud from the feeling around of mem
bers who expect to legislate for their
respective counties by introducing
measures that will benefit the people
they represent.
The representation from Cherokee
has been reduced by tbe severe illness
of Mr. McCraw, who has had to go
home. It is hoped that Mr. McCraw
is better and will soon be able to take
his seat here again.
Mr. Butler, however, in the absence
of his colleague, will dispatch the
work to the benefit of bis county in
tbe same manner as he does to his
clients. He has now introduced two
bills relating to the drawing of jurors
and one to build a bridge over Broad
river, both of which have been favor
ably submitted to the House by the
committees to which they have been
referred.
Young Frank Gauit, of Cherokee
county, appointed at the request of
Mr. Butler, is a quick and alert little
fellow and is making a good page.

' Question Answered.
Yes, August Flower still has the
largest sale of any medicine in tbe
civilized world. Your mothers’ and
grandmothers’ never thought of using
anything else for Indigestion or Bil
iousness. Doctors were scarce, and
they seldom beard of Appendicitis,
Nervous Prostration, Heart Failure,
etc. They used August Flower to
oleao out the system and stop fer-
mentstlon of undigested food, regu
late tbe action of the liver, stimulate
the nervous and organic action of the
system, and that is ail they took
when feeling dull and bad with
headaches and other aches. You
only need a few doees of Green’s

make you satisfied there is nothing
serious the matter with you. For

have pansed an order nquirit/g all
peftOna who have not been success

proper thing to do in order to keep
tbe disease in check. It is far better
to be bothered a day or so with a sore
arm titan to be laid up several weeks

have not been vaccinated do so at
once and we need itavo no fear of an
