To the Editor of The Herald and News:-As you propose to open a "Kieker's Column" in The Herald and News it occurs to me to furnish you a few observations for it. I would, how ever,not wish to be regarded as a kicker against any improvement that the town can reasonably afford. But we have need of very many improvements, and I think it the part of wisdom to undertake the most necessary rirst. It will be time enough to undertake lux uries, if we find that we can afford them, after the works of prime neces sity have been carried out. I need not refer to past errors in this respect, but those errors ought to serve as a guiue for the future. In the first place we are not yet done with the graded school. and are called upon in a few days to vote another -.k for the building. We should of course do all that is necessary to make these schools a success, for noney spent in the cause of public education I al ways re ard as wisely spent. But from wh~at I have heard of tiie cost of build inzs elsewhere, it does 'seem to me that the +1,+wlt already voted, together with the S3,l4) to $4,1hw that the two lots belonging to the town are said to be worth, ought to be suffi cient to erect a building ample for all present poirposes. I merely make this observation in passing: but would not wish to be understood as opposed ,to voting the additional sum asked for. Then every one must admit that our streets reouire far more work than they get. They are a wilderness of gras and weeds in summer, and a lob bolly of mud in winte-. Mr. Jackson should have a larger force of street workers at his disposal, and perhaps nightwork it a little more energetically. But our most pressing present want is unnuestionably a good supply of water, as was urged by Dr. McIntosh and and others at the meeting. This is urgently needed both for the health of the people and for the safety of the town from tire. If a regular system of water works be found feasi1Ae, in the language of the resolution adopted, so much the better. That would answer all purposes. But should this not be the case, then it seems to me that we should at least have two or three good ci,:_rns constructed without delay in the most exposed parts of the town for *e ase of the tire department. I do :at all agree with the idea I have he rd expressed. that only the center of the town has the right to protection from :re. I hold that all tax-payers have such right. and for their resi dences as well as their stores and places uf business. Cisterns adequate for all purposes. I am informed by the eti cient head of our tire department, can be constructed for two or three hun ired dollars each: that is. the license for one of the new barrooms to be opened would about construct two good isterns. As it seems to be the policy of our conscrip: fathers. very wrongly as I think, to increase instead of dimin isi the numb:r of these places for cor rupting our y ou:h, and reducing fami ;les to poverty and shame, at least all the advan:taue p'ossible should be got Cut of the: fr the benett of the town. Instead of raising the license only '10, I would have at least doubled it. The :icense at Chester is. I beiieve, i,UOO and at Spartanburg $i,200. It is true, either su: would be a very inadequate re turn for the harm done a town by a Ibarroom: but it would at least be some thiug with which to do necessary Aftr~ ou:r'towvn i'. properly supplied wit w'ater and o ther prime necessities, I should not only have no objection, but would be delighted to see our streets lihe by electricity. This wouldi be not on!v higrhlv ornamental but also fexceed ingly useful in many ways. I have seen many smaller places than Newberry with electric lights, and I see no good reason why we might not have them. I freely admit that our present pretense at illumination is a miserable failure and little better than ntigat all. I only insist that we sboud udertke hatis most neces sarv first. If this be kicking, then I am A KICKtER. THE NEW COLUMBIA PAPER. th WlAppear on the 7th of February TeDir'ectore AreAil Anti-Admninis trton3en. Epecial to Augusta C'hroniele. CeLMDBta, S.

INIIANAIOLIS, IND., January. The House yesterday, after a long and vigorous debate, adopted the following resolutions by a strictly party vote: "WHEREAS, A bill has been intro duced in the General Assembly provid ing for the appropriation of *2'0u.000 to ! make a display of the industries and resources of this State at the World's Fair, to be held at Chicago in 1S93: and whereas, the measure now pending in the United States Senate, known as the force bill, is revolutionary, which, if it passes the Senate, it is believed will involve the people of the South eru States in a race war, will prostrate the industries of many of the States of the Union, will disrupt a nicable com mercial -And social relat.ons existing between the North and the South: and whereas. if said measure shall become law and such conditions thereby be brought about the World's Fair will fall to adequately display the magni tude and variety of our country's re source, will fall short of the purposes for which it was contemplated, and will bring shame and reproach upon our whole country: and whereas, it is the sense of this General A sembly that no appropriation should be made by the State of Indiana unless it can be nade in fact as in name a world's fair, and can exhibit the magnitude and variety of our whole country's re sources and advancement; therefore, "R%olved, By the House of Represen tatives, the Senate concurring, that no further consideration of the said appro priation bill be had uutil the Senate has finally disposed of said force bill, that this Assembly may know what is to be the character of the exhibition of said WVorld's Fair." The Democratic members of the Sen ate concurred in the resolution and de cided to vote for them solidly to-day. NEW JERSEY JOINS THE COLUMN. TRENTON. N. J., Jaouary 27.-The Senate this morning concurred in the resolution adopted by the House last week denouncing the Federal elections bill, and asking New Jersey Congress men to oppose the same. A resolution offered last night, that New Jersey withold the appropriations from the World's Fair if the election bill passes Congress, was adopted by the Assembly this morning. The vote on the resolution was a party one. ILLINoIS IS IN EARNEST. SiRNGFIELD, ILL., January 'r.-In the House to-day the resolution in structing the Senators from Illinois to vote against the Federal election bill was passed by a strict party vote 77 to 73, the F. M. B. A. men not voting. Springer on behalf of the Democrats gave notice that if the Senators from Illinois should vote for the Federal election bill the Democrats in the State Legislature would not vote one dollar in aid of the World's Fair. NEBRASKA CONDEMNS CLOTURE. L:NCo\, NEB.. January 27-Reso lutions were adopted in both branches of the Legislature this morning approv ing the action of the Senate in laying aside the cloture rule. The Indepen dents,with only three exceptions, voted with the Democrats. WEST vTRGINIA IS THERE TOO. CHARLEsTON, WV. VA., January 27 -The Legislature yesterday, after an acrimonious discussion, passed by a vote of 40) to 2" a resolution that in case of the passage of the election bill the State will make no World's Fair ap propriation. NORTH CAROLINA FALIS IN LINE. WXASHINGTON, Jan. 27.-A special from Raleigh, N. C., says: The General Assembly, in session here, has passed a resolution opposing the appropriation for North Carolina's exhibit at the World's Fair in Chicago until the elections bill, now pending in the United States Senate, is voted down in that body. The resolutions are very strong and ~passed with high enthusi asm. Governor Fowle had recom mended an appropriation of $25,0W for that purpose." APPOINTED TO OFFICE. Mr. H. 1R. Thomas, of sumte~r, is the Rail road CommIssioner. [Special to Augusta Chronicle.] COLUMBIA, S. C., Jan. 24.-Governor Timan has appointed B. R. Thomas, of Sumter county, a member of the board of state railroad commissioners, to fill the vacancy caused by the death of ex-Governor Boanhamt. The governor states as a reason for the appointment that as the vacancy occurred in the case of a mem ber from the middle sec tion of the state, he felt compelled to appoint some one from that section. This appointment will be apt to ex cite unfavorable comment among both Tillmanites and straightout. A mong the latter because no one of the promi net followers of Governor Tillman was more bitter and duscruplous than Mr. Thomas and none perhaps hao a less savory record in and out of politics. A portion of the Tillmanites will be offended because Rev. J. A. Sligh, of Prosperity, was not named for the ap pointment. Mr. Sligh was considered all aiomr in the lead, and many long headed'politic-al prophets thought his apointment certain, but political prophets, even when long-headed, are mistaken sometimes in this record breaking year. Like sc me others borne initO offer by the Tillman movement Mr. Thomas has killed his man. H is real name is Reagan, but he had it changed some years ago by an act of the legislature. ABERATION OF MIND. Tho Rev. J. s. White. of Rock Hill, Falis into a Tank and is Drowned. Secial to the News and Courier.] RoK HILL. January 22.-Our town, at 3 o'clock this morning, was thrown into great excitement by the disap parace of the Rev. James S. White, pastor of the Second Presbyterain church and assistant. to the minister in charge of time First Presbyteran church. Ye.trdav, on account of his health. Mr. White resigned his charges. The seion refused to accept his resigna tion but gave him a vacation until Vctobr. Het ween 2 and 3 o'clock this morn in he awoke and left his room against the protest of bis wife. His son, as soon as he could dress, followed him tpoing he had gone to his study in the ard. Not finding him there, he reported the fact to his mother, who at nce summoned friends. There were mian to respond and they searched miles around for the missing man. It being supposed that his mind was atreeted. one of our citize as suggested that possibly Mr. White had climbed u in the t'ower of the wind mill and htd fallen in the tank. sixty feet above the ground. Upon examination he was there found dead tloating in the tank, sixty feet above the ground. Tje Rev J. 5. White was one of the. most beloved citizens of our town.

Bonham Puts the Slate Beyond Any Loss Whatever. iSpecial to Augusta Chronicle.1 COLUMBIA, S. C., Jan. 24.-To-day the shortage in the adjutant-general's department. and for which ex-Adjutant General Bonham was responsible, was settled in full. The amount made good by General Bonbam was 5 and it was paid in full. This forenoon Gen. Bonham and Col. Aldrich, his relative, friend and coun sel, waite. upou Gov. Tillman and in formed him that the deficiency had been made good by a deposit in the Loan and Exchange bank of a suffi cient amount to cover all claims. The governor had the deposit transferred to the Carolina bank. Gen. Bon ham's deposit is sufficient to cover all protest fees, and the expense of the expert employed to go over two books and atsolutely pays every cent for which he was in any way responsi ble. A SPICY CORRESPONDENCE. [Special to Sunday News.] CoLUIBIA. January 24.-After the settlement of the accounts of General Bonham to-day the following letter was handed to Col. Alfred Aldrich for deliverv: EXECUTIVE CHAMBER, COLUMBIA, t. C., January 24. Gen. M. L. Bonham-Dear Sir. The shortage in your accounts as Adjutant and Inspector General having been made good, and the State suffered no loss by your act, you are at liberty to leave the State if you so desire. Respectfully, B. R. TILLMAN, Governor. Gen. Bonham before leaving the city to-night mailed a letter in reply to Governor Tillman, of which the follow ing is a coy: COLUMBIA, S. C., January 24, 1S4. Governor B. R. Tillman, Columbia, S. C.-Sir: Your communication of the 24th of January is at hand, in which you say "the shortage in your accounts as Adjutant and Inspector General having been made good, and the State suffered no loss by your act, you are at liberty to leave the State if you so de sire." ermit Pme to say that my indebted ness to the State having been cancelled I am at liberty to go wheresoever I please without your permission. Your efforts to make my movements de pendent upon your will is a piece of impertinence which your official posi tion protects you in offering. You know full well that if I leave the State at all it is only to attend the meeting at Cincinnati of the insurance company with which I aui connected, which absence from the State is for a few days only. Respectfuly. M. L. BONHAM. On a telegram from the Union Cent ral Insurance Company, of Cincinnati, which he represents here, General Bun ham left for that city this evening to attend a meeting of the directors. THE GOVERNOR'S STATEMENT. [Special to News and Courier.] COLUMBIA, January 25.-Governor Tiliman read to-day in the Sunday News and in Gen. Bonham's nianu script the letter of the latter in reply to the Governor's letter granting him permission to leave the State. Gover nor Tillman was called upon to-day and asked if he had replied to the letter. He, however, dictated the following statement to the representative of the News and Courier: "Before the matter was arranged esterday Gen. Bonham and Col.Alfred Aldrich came into niy office, accom pained by Attorney General Pope. After some discussiou as to where the money should be deposited and as to the necessary prelimiuary steps to be taken, it was agreed that the money should be placed to the credit of Adju tant General Bonhami in the Carolmna National Bank and that they should bring a certificate of deposit from the cashier of that bank. Th'at was done, with the information that a autticient amount had been placed in bank to cover the expenses of protests and also the fees of Mr. Symmers, the expert accountant, the latter being pai in my presence by Col. Aldrich. TIhe re quest wa then made by Attorney General Pope, Col. Aldrich impliedly acquiescing, that I write Gen. Bou ham a let ter, stating that he could leave the State. I wrote the letter asked for in as brief and polite terms as I knew Low. I was surprised that the request should have been made, and that my compli ance with the request should have been met with such a discourteous rejoinder. That is all I care to say." THE CRCL-MsTANCES OF BOGNHAM's ESPIONAGE. It was learned to-day that the fol lowing are the circumstances under which Gen. Bonhami was placed under espionage: On the night that tne news paper men weie asked to withhold the news of the shortage, Governor Tillmnan sent for Sheriff Rowan and instructed him to act according to certain state ments made, which have not been made public. It is not l+nown whet her this condition was known to Gen. B3on ham and his friends, at least until yes terday. Whben Gen. Bonhamn's accounts had been settled yesterday, or soon_ thereafter, Sheritf Rowan came out of the Governor's ottice, and it is p)resu med had then been relieved of this instruc From what Governor Tillman said to-day, and from what Attorney Geae ral Pope and Gen. Farley have frequent ly said, they never regarded Gen. fon ham's act.ons in the light of any criminal intent. If they had so regarded it, it is plain that the othecers of the law could not or should not have even puni lied the ottfence. Either way it is a hard nut to crack: but the action ot the State officials must certainly be re garded as a complete exoneration of Gen. Bonhanm if he ever needed a testi monial. The talk about past. prese::t and future prosecution is thie apotheo sis of bosh and newspaper slush. COL. ALFRED ALDRICH' S TATEMENT. [Special to News and ('onurier.j COLUMBIA, January :26.-Col. Altred Aldrich called at this office to-day and desired to make the follow ing -tate eet relating to the circum tances under which the letter to Gien. bun ham was written by Governor Tilman: "There is no foundation wh atever for the statemxents made by Giover nor ilman that I aeguiiesced ini any request that he extend permi-ssion to Gen. Bonham to leave the State. I heard no such request made by Gen. Pope and do not t>eIieve that he made "Ater paying Mr. Symmners for his services and receiving a receipt there for. I rose to leave the Executive chami ber. saing, 'I believe there is nothing else to'be done, and will go.' Gover nor Tilman said. 'Wait a moment,' nd began writing. After writing a abort time he called his secretary, and hnding him a sheet of paper said, 'Copy tat.' I had no idea what the paper contained. When the secretary returned with the copy Governor Till man folded the sheet of paper, put it an envelop, addressed it. and handed, t to Gee. Pope. Gen. Pope asked me o:o goto his office with him, and there l irave me thbe communication which Svernor Tillman had handed to him. rd which proved to be the 'permis ion' to leave the State, to which Gen. Boonham properly took umbrage. "Learning later in the day that the iwspapers had also been furnished a :opy of this petty attempt by a parv-enu, clothed with a little brief authority,' o humiliate an unfortunate gentlemnan y force of circumstances, in a false and ~istressing position, I advised Geni. 3onliam to write a commumicationi idhich would in my judgment have )roperly met the case, and to be de ivered by me to Governor Tillman in person.
