All incomos are led upon property. Bonds, stocks, like securities are proporty, as houses, steamboats, machinery itufacturing. The income is but nioasuro of its value. The (l tax is right, just, equitable, her sectional nor partial. It ? Inquisitorial in its enforee lay tempt to perjury.

The Legislature at its recent session prohibited the killing or capturing and soiling of partridges and quail for live years. The penalty is $10 for each * bird sold.

Tho enterprising News and Courier unearths the fact that Cov. Tillman's $5.00 a day chief state constable is a republican.

I say it with the kindost feelings to tho business mon, of Laurens, if you have an idea of Lauron? over becoming more than the little town Hho is you must put your hands very much fur ther Into your pockots than heretofore and build u factory. There isn't the public spirit in Lau rens that there should bo or else the moneyed men have not tho intelligence to appreciate tho fact that contribu tions of ton, sovon ;;nd 11 vo thousand dollar. each would pay them hand somoly. There are plenty of young follows about town who are bold and far seeing and unselfish, but dollars by tho hun dred to them are more than thousands aro to many of you older citizens in comfortable circumstances with capi tal. The young men of Luurons are ready and willing to furnish the en ergy'but they can't'Ut up tho ?'stuff" because they haven't got It. Tho exciting incident of tho week here has been the Woodward -Johnson episode. Major Tom Woodward is one of tho best men in tho State with a crop full of sand. Johnson is a mem ber of the June-bug legislature who talks in a dee]) voice and with a twang. Ho and Major Woodward had a dispu tation in the Wlnnsboro News and Herald and epithets were passed. Ma jor Woodward's epithets hit the spot so when the Major comes to Columbia on business, Johnson, bo conies too. He goes up to the Major attired in a hostile aspect and demands an apology und the Major doesn't know how to apologize. So be. tho Major, declines and sticks a pistol in Mr. Johnson's face and inquired- "What are you go ing to do about it?" "Nothing," la conically replies Mr. Johnson. "Ten dollars or ten days,-' said May or Fisher to Major Woodward next morning and the city treasury is uu eagle ahead. W. W. B. J, William Stokes has been nomi nated by the Reformers us a candidate to fill Judge Brawloy's place. Judge Izlarof the stone town, Orungeburg. is also spoken of. Simpson's MHIh. After an absence, of several months from your columns we appear again from another point. There hasn't anything new transpired but we wish to let the county know thut we are con tented and happy in the belief that wo have as good a community as .uiy peo ple, and that our neighborhood is not besot by spies and incendiaries. Our school is nourishing with 40 odd names enrolled. The farmers are preparing to plant a big crop of cotton, judging from ap pearances. Miss Annie Garllngton, an accom plished young lady of Narnie. visited Miss Mattte MeOani -I last week. Wo notice that Messrs. Irvin and Chesterfield MoDanlol run down to Waterloo quite frequently?for their health of course. Mr. J. 13. Taylor, of Princeton, is here now going to school to his brother. Lovers of line poultry should not fail to see Mr. Kvans MeDaniel's Shanghais and Leghorns w hen in town. There is some sickness in our Com munity .just now, nothing serious how over. ' We wish your readers big luck in 18U4. Jack. How to TrotcotTouraclf. If you get into a quarrel with a man and see that you can't get out of it with out a fight right then and there, forgot that ho has a bend, pick out tho second button of bis vest and Bin ash him on it aa hard aa you can. In 5)0 cases out of 100 you'll win tho buttle without nn other lick. There is no foul about a stomach blow; it's only when you get below tho belt that you aro open to criticism. Of courso you aro liable to hurt a man by bitting him in the stom ach, but that's what you are there for. Most people who get into a sudden row ?1 am speaking of course of those who havo never been taught how to take care of themselves?-go at each other hand over band like a sailor climbing up the rigging, and they invariably try for each other's head. As I said before, for get your antagonist has u head if you uro forced into a fight. Just take aim at tbo place where you think bischest pro tector stops and let drive at it. There is not one man in 10,000 can stand a oraek there. It takes months of train ing to make a man's stomach Im I enough to receive even a medium bl v there. Then, if you want to spoil his beauty and leave your visiting card with him in the shape of a black eye. you can do it at your leisure, for the fellow who is hit in the bread basket forgets all about his body above that, for tho time being anyhow.?Washington Post.

Higlnbolham of World's fair fame is one of tho most genial of Chi cago's big men and pnn of its easist to approach, but that docs not mean that Mr. Higinbotham is an easy man to in terview. Quite the reverse. Except on matters to which his opinion is perti nent be will not talk for publication. For instance, if hois asked for an inter view on tho tariff ho will load tho con versation away from that topic and de scribe volnbly the condition of tbo Mo hammedans in Palestine as he saw it when last visiting tho Holy Lund.
