Editor Darlington News:
A painter, named Robert S.
Dalton, while at work on a shed
in Toledo, Ohio, fell across some
electric wires and was killed.
His body was burned to such an
extent that the spectacle was
most horrible and sickening.
On December 14th, Henry
Wright, a well-to-do farmer of
Naumelle, Arkansas, was beat
en to death and robbed by four
men. A vigilance committee
was at once organized and the
murderers were caught and
quickly lynched.
On Sunday, at Niles, Ohio,
Charley Shellar and wife and
their three children were found
cold and stiff in death at their
home with their throat 1 ;

THE CLEMSON COLLEGE
In our last issue we mentioned
briefly some of the objections to
the bill which had passed the
House of Representatives provi
ding for the establishment of an
Agricultural College and ex
pressed the hope that the Senate
would clip from what is other
wise a good measure these fea
tures so dangerous to the well
being of the State. And that
body has done its good work and
to the bill, as it finally passed
both branches of the General
Assembly, there can be but few
substantial objections made.
The Senate insisted ‘that the
sinking fund should still be de
voted to paying the State debt
and the point was carried. The
credit of the State will therefore
remain unimpaired. Another
good result of the Senate’s de
liberation upon the bill is that
the Experimental Stations re
main intact. Furthermore, in
stead of three-fifths of the priv
ilege tax on fertilizers being
given to aid in the maintenance
of the College, $25,000 of this
tax and a direct appropriation
of $10,000 from the State Treas
ury is used for that purpose.
The privilege tax has heretofore
been devoted to the support of
the Department of Agriculture,
which, if bereft of three-fifths of
this tax, would be useless and
an unnecessary burden to the
State. By this compromise one of
the most valuable departments
of the State Government is pre
served. Our confidence in the
conservatism of the Senate was
not misplaced.
So the much vexed question is
settled at last and for this let us
give thanks ! For several years
past this question has loomed
up as a terrible ogie to the De
mocracy of the State and threat
ened, ere long, to be the rock
upon which the solidity of the
white man’s party would be rent
asunder. But now it has been
amicably adjusted to the satis
faction of all parties and with its
settlement all bad feeling en
gendered by it is buried forever.
Hereafter all will unite in en
couraging an institution which
can not fail to be of credit to the
State.
Having be^n unable to see
wisdom in our Legislature’s ex
tending the time beyond that
fixed by law, viz: From Oct. 15
to Dec. 15 for the collection of
taxes. I have endeavored for
my own satisfaction to get the
following facts from the tax du
plicates and other records in the
Treasurer’s office:
’Tis not my purpose to excite
controversy or to array any feel
ing against the few enterprising
and well to do tax payers and
and property holders, who, if
my statement is true, own or
control directly or indirectly as
manager, holder, guardian,
trustee, executor, administrator,
agent, attorney, receiver or ac
counting officer or otherwise,
nearly one-third of the total tax
able property of the county.
I find first, the total taxable
property for the county for fiscal
1888-9, including errors, dupli
cates and nulla bonas, $2,923,-
248 ; total amount of taxes lev
ied,including polls and penalties,
$39,764.
I find second, tax list of 23
large property holders presented
County Jreasurer written up to
Saturday, Dec. 14, still in Coun
ty Treasurer’s hands to be paid,
amounting to $5,831.79.
I find third, amount of taxes
that will be paid on property
owned or controlled by 19 large
property holders, managers
agents, attorneys, trustees, etc.,
amounting to $6,246.23 ; making
a grand total $12,078.02, or near
ly one-third of the total taxes ol
the county including polls and
penalties, or aggregating a total
taxable proneriy of $1,073,000
or considerably over one-third
the total taxable property re
turned in the county, or over
$818,000 tax valuation if subject
to 141 mills the highest levy as
now authorized.
I find fourth, amount of de
linquents, had there been no ex-
tention allowed would have been
665 aggregating total taxes of
$1,239 and polls by actual count
506, showing a little over $11,-
000 taxable property, or less than
(1-27) one twenty-seventh of to
tal property returned in the
county. t
To condense: Total taxable
property returned in the county,
$2,923,248 ; amount of taxes, in
cluding polls and penalty for,
$39,764; taxes written up as per
statement second, $5,831.79 ; tax
es that would have been paid,
owned or controlled as agents,
trustees, attorneys, banks, ike.,
$6,246.23; delinquents including
polls $1,745.
The question may be asked for
S roof as to the $6,246.23 taxes
ue by large property holders,
managers, &?., that would have
been paid without penalty? I
this too because of extension of
time.
I know not the condition of
other counties, but I feel proud
of this much, that nine-tenths
at least of Darlington’s tax pay
ers, small in means but loyal,
did not make it necessary for
any inconvenience in the finan
cial machinery of their county.
So much better to fix the time
from Oct. 1 to Dec. 20 and no
extension unless some unfore
seen calamity, such as thank
God we as a people have never
had, should arise.
If there be any blame as to
this extension, where should it
fall ? If any tax payer or class
of tax payers are benefitted, who
or what class?

A terrible story comes from
Knoxville, Tenn. W. J. Long-
meyer, one of the most promi
nent citizens of the city, has
been missing for several months.
A few days ago his bones were
found in the Cumberland moun-
tains—only his skeleton was
found, the flesh having been
eaten by wild animals or buz
zards. It is supposed that he
became insane and wandered off
into the mountains and died.
Gen. Joseph Wheeler, of Ala-j

the following bill into the Na

seum, library and memorial
building in the city of Washing-
the in-
which
is to bring together fraternal
association between those who
were engaged in the war be
tween the States, “to care for
him who shall have borne bat
tle and for his widow and or-
ton.”

Mr. Grady was a Georgian,
but, as the editor of one of the
leading journals of the country
and as a champion of the rights
of the South, he belonged to us
all and it is for us to grieve at
the early departure of him whom
we trusted and looked to as the
guardian of our interests.
In his death the South has sus
tained an irreparable loss and
we mourn for our country’s
sake.

A MUCH NEEDED CHANGE.
The people of Darlington are
subjected to many inconven
iences and annoyances on ac
count of not receiving the mail
from Charleston in the morning
and we are informed that this is
due entirely to the simple fact
that the up freight on the Che
raw & Darlington Railroad
leaves Florence every morning
only a few minutes before the
arrival of the train from Char
leston. It does seem to us that
a matter like this could be easily
remedied and we feel sure,
should the postoffiee department
call the attention of the railroad
authorities to it, that it could
be so arranged that the freight
should wait every morning for
the Charleston train. The change
would be of no consequence to
the railroad company and would
be of great service to our peo
ple. We will all be under many
obligations to the proper author
ities should they make this
change.
uTe law of extension or
means as long as our
Legislatures grant them this
privilege. No, no, I would do
ikewise were I in their places,
and if our General Assemblies
would vote “no tax” I certainly
would ot pay a dime, but where
is the wisdom in blocking over
$5,000 of county ordinary and
school funds for a short time,
which amount is needed to sat
isfy various claims against the
county some long since due ?
There are claims no doubt the
payment of which is inevitably
postponed until February next
as no one expects these large
tax payers to pay their taxes be
fore the last days, and no one
doubts their ability to arrange
payment on an hour’s notice, a
thing impossible for the majori
ty of the 4,300 other tax payers
who had paid on or before the
15th of December. The masses
of tax payers, the hard working
and oftimes straightened labor
ers, mechanics and farmers, dare
not put off the payment of the
taxes on any risk ; for penalties
make it almost impossible for
any delinquent within himself
to meet the demands of law.
Moreover, notices of exten
sions are almost always delayed
to the last moment or at least
little or no action is taken by
the Legislature until within a
short time before the expiration
of time for collection of taxes
and notice through the Comp
troller General reaches the
Treasurers about the eleventh
hour, or, as was the case this
year, on the 16th, one day after
expiration of time, so only those
who kept posted or had access
to telegraph or telephone were
n any way relieved.
Another feature, there are a
number of school certificates
and county claims discounted
by banks, merchants and^oth
ers, who shave to a date not la
tter than Nov. 15 or Dec. 1; now
in view of repeated extensions
is it unreasonable to suppose
banks and others will deauct
discounts to ‘Jan. 1 or Feb. 1.
Many a hard worked teacher,
mechanic or other citizen, who
did work for the county during
the year will no doubt fail to
get their just claims for Christ
mas pocket change. I am aware
that on more than one occasion
the County Commissioners could
not check for many claims
amounting to $4,000 or $5,000 be
cause the Treasurer’s report
showed less than $3,000 subject
to county ordinary claims, and
