ASSESSING PROPERTY.
The Spartanburg ierald in comment
ing on the question of valuation of
property for txationi and deploring the
fact that owners and ollicers ignore the
plain ai simple mandate of the consti
tution, says:
We are glad to note that the New
berry lerald and News is taking up
this matter and we should like to see
More couity papers pressing it forward
as one of the most important of all the
public questions, civil or moral, which
now presents itself to our people. " *
It is very hard to understand how a
man. honest in other matters, will de
li berately swear that his property is
worthl, sa', $1,000 when he ha1s jUSt.
bought it for $2,000. Yet this is so fre
quently done that it is scarcely remark
ed uponl its a dishonest act, in plainer
terills a lie, and the worst. kind of lie, it
swindling lie. What code of morals
have we that men, reputed to be atil
e.alIing ihemselves honest, justify theiml
selves in a deliberate perjury? See4 one
resulit in the complete demoralization
and shaillelessless of a set of men. ap
poillted to assess the railroad and vot tonl
mill proe1Vty of the State, who have
n111 mor regard for the constitution ot'
Solth t Carolinla and the demands of
('01111oll honesty tlhan to assess this
rl'ohey at sixty per cent of its value.
This is all very true in the literal

THE DBEATH OF THB POPE.
During the more than two weeks
which Pope Leo XIII passed in the
shadow of death the eyes of the world
were turned to his bed-side. It was no
ordinary man who every change for th
better during thoso fourteen davs was
received by millions of men with joy;
whose every change for the worse east
a great, gloom. H-is election to the
pontificate twenty-five years ago at
sured that he was no or,lirary inin.
'Tle whole life of Leo XIlII may be
judged by its close, and all men every
where know its close. During the last
few days he passed on eart h lie dis
played the same kindly disposit io with
firmness and the same :magnitfivent
powers of mind which characterized
his whole career. His great exet utive
ability combined with his other sterling
qualities, which eniabled him so accept
ably to fill the posit ion of head of the
strongest church onl earth numterically
and a position which has been filled by
some of the world's greatest melt, and
which enabled him to add even greater
illilniece to Ilhis position, would have

lie com1mainded tIe admiration and I
spect of all na: ions and of all ce eds.
It speaks well fI- our age and for
our civilization that in thousands of
Protestant churches throughou t the
world earnest prayers were offered for
Leo's recovery, and that when he had
paid the debt of all flesh. Protest ant as
well as Catholic- mourned the death of
:a great 1ald good man.
