November 26. : . : 185 WE made a misstatement several days ago in saying that the homestead law remains very much like it did be fore. As it proposes new the home stead can never be mortgaged or use1 as collatteral in any shape or f"-rm We question if this will meet t Le pub li: approval. In so ne ca-es i: i-iv b. well, but all that can tver be dout with land so fixed is to farm it. Should a man wish to secure advances ii money or ?upplies it is absolutely iz 1-s- a- a resource. Thanksx ving. Mist peopletreat Thatlksgiving Da as a kind of holiday or resr and pai very little consideration to the rea purpose of the occasion. Sume thinl tbat they had '.uch a hard time" tha really they have nothing to be thank ful for. The c,ndition of our count to-day is, to a far-reaching extent better than it has been for many years There is more hogs and corn in Fair field now than there have been in mani years. Cotton is worth about tVice a much as it was in 1891, and the negroe have more money than they have hai in a long time. In fact the laborer ha been rewarded for his servc. s and al sh)ould be thankful and provident witi the fruits of their labor. TnE following clippinig frow tiJ Riedmont HIeadlight, with other re marks quoted from Tomn Watson, o Georgia seems to indicate that th poor-mnan-t acket of Senator Irby is a work.

At anl rate the fight will be very inter e.sing for the two tigers of the Reform move men, seem to have made up thei: minds to down each other, and disin terested people may look on and smile for it wont make miuch difference t< Z,hem which wins the laurels.

The poor people of thss country are being oppressect more and more every day. When men claiming to be re formers, and friends to the poor say that $200 has more rig bt to vote than a free-born white man, because he han tiot been able to acquire an education, or, could not accu[mulate pi oport y, it. is going entirely too far. Ex-Reformer. '.(AX4ATION FOR PliBLICI.EOABS. Mr. Editor: I,was g:ad tg sea a dis position ofi"the part~of some of the representatives in 'the recent road congress to levy and.collect a sufficient tax to work t,e public rpads. I know it lies been truly said, that our taes., both state and county, ar.e teryM high But I think I. can fully depist;rate to an.y perspn of rea-on. and- intelli genc.e why our p.ublic roads should be kept up by taxation. Ik now that any system of taxa tion, however little may be the levy, or, however just and equitable may be the system, falls heavily upon t-ae minds of some people and thete% fail8 to meet the approfaj or al', :sti zer.s and taxpayers. To demonstrate clearly, l* e take a glance at the origiary. -' tention of taxation, and lamn coddtabe prr,po sition herein presgad cdi 'wej .afford to undergo the- swebJighi fsrtn and investigageo.*. In mIy opinofh tr Wt.easure of tax.ation is. this.:: Th -every man should pay tod. tesng-por. of his governmnt onnt.yA Stat.e and natio nal,. at roportsi to his abidity to pay4. I.d'o not. belive iin a'u system that lev.es e-ud co4lects a La:: fr&m one class of people anti at. the same time iets another go ct. tree. It is not my ineidionl to make any"~ unjiest discrimi nia:ioni between the taxoayers andi voting population of any' county. I Lelieve the present r oad law ougiht to be repealed, and thr.n leave ir. opai>nal with thec voters to say by 'S popular vote whett.er 'we vwill levy a~mi c>)llect a tax f.or the improvement of -the pu-b l ndcrhig eay.re.n 'tmi po man is compelled to pay his $2, work the roads six days, or go to the chain gang, while his more fortunate fellow man, who is over fifty years old, o ns one thousand acre of land or more, owns twelve or fitteen head of horses and several vehicles, and consequently uses the roads a greatdeal more than his poor neighbor, thus you see often the man or men who pay the tax or work the roads use them very little. I believe it one class of citizens are taxed all ought to be taxed atike, in proportion to their ability to pay and in proportion to the benefits they re ceive from the taxation, regardless of age. I believe the uian who owns ten thousand dollars worth of property ought to pay ten times as much as the man who owns one thousand dollars worth. I do not see any injustice in this proposition. If the roads were kept up by taxation and let out by con tracts, the poor man who is now com pelled to pay hiS $2 or work the six days could then hire to the contractor and make fifty or seventy-five cents per day and by one week's work make three or four dollars, where he now has to pay two dollars. Perhaps some will say we are oblidged to tax the common livers or require them to work the maximum number of days in order to get the negroes' labor or re quire him to pay the tax. Let me say here without evasion or subterfuge that if we have got to tax or compel the poor people to comply with the law in order to compel the negro to pay the tax or work the full number of days, it then behooves our law makers when the legislature meets to repeal the obnoxiour law and submit the matter to the people of the re spective counties to say h,w they will dispose of the question. I be!:eve one mill or a mill ax I a half ought to be levied and c >llected c.n all personal property and re.il esta e and also twenty or fif y ceir s per capita if iecessar. In th:it way every man would tien pay in proportion to his ability to pay and in proportion to the amount he uses the roads. There are some men in this county who it they had been taken from their work in July or August and compelled to work six days on the roads their families would have been almost without a morsel of food. I trust that I have been Explicit on this subject. It the matter could be sabmnitted to the voters of the different counties for their approval or disap proval. if in that event if our county should vote no tax, then I would acquiesce in the result, for I believe in the majority ruling. I repeat again, that if we are to be taxed let it rest equally on all and not discriminate against any one class. Being actuated by a patriotic impulse, I shall advocate in a bold antj fearless manner that which I believe just and i ight and which will give equal and exact justice to all. If the poor marn hid an opportunity ta vote on the question and then they were compelled to pay a capitatiot tax of two dollars they.would have no ezcuse to comn plain. But as it is lhe feels I at l.e is being taxed without repre-entationx. [he working classes who spend : heir entire income in the support of themselves and families are tr?e most < ppressed of all men under the present method. Col. Robt. G. Ingersol said of Abra hamn Lincoln, 'SClothed with almost absolute power he never used it ex ept on the side of mercy." Would to God that all men in o0icial station were imbued with the same principles of equity and justice. I regret to see that so many of our p:-ople do not manifest the interest in this and similar questions that they ought to. I regret so many do not realize the gravity of the situation. I hope the day is* not far distant when every chiildt of this country will be Pborn to the possibilities of a life of culture ancA rexinemnent and not be doomed from bir-.h to a life of mending toil, poverty and ignorroce. Mr. E.ditor, I hesited to discuss this im portant theme, thinking that others far more experienced than myself woutld contribute somethirg on this important subject; but I feel that IL is the duty of every man on proper occasions to do something, say some thing, or suff'er something for the welfare of people. I am yours truly, Robt. R. Jeff'ares. - Feastervill, S. C., Nov. 16. means:s nmeh ore than fatl isase 'esltfrom trifingailetsneglected. Ddnt p?a, "ith Nature's -greatest gift--health. .
