;It appears that the surplus suppose

THE CITY OF SUMMER.
Some interest aaa been aroused amoo|
oar suburban residents and tax-payer
by thc move in tie legislature te exten?
oar town limita and make Stinter a city,
and a petition was prepared in opposi?
tion to the measure, and carried over tc
Colombia on yesterday.
We are not informed as te fae'proba?
ble result of this protest, but we are
inclined to the opinion that the most ol
our **town" ?citisens are willing to di
. vide the honors and luxuries of a "city"
life with their coan try neighbors, and
that aa the opposition from the oat
??er? will in a measnre be neutralised
by the large accession of "available ter?
ritory developed* by the Turkey Creek
Canal, the *?eity*r of Sumter is almost
a fixed met. A people who have a
canal completed, water-works assured,
and electric lights and street railway
promised, should nj? object te being
incorported into- a city. Sumter bas
the reputation of being on a "boom,"
H and to increase our population to about
4,000 will go a great ways towards
establishing the boom. Why not be
a City?
The following is ftoai the Netcs"?nd
Courier's Columbia- letter t- ?
The town of Sumter ie to be ' raised
to the dignity of a oity, and deservedly
so. t A bill to recharter the town has
already been reported, and is weil np
on the Calender. _%e corporate limits
of the new city include ail toe area em
'. -braced ia a circle from Courthouse
Sonare with a radia? of* one mik. The
city council is to consist of a mayor and
four aldermen, to be elected on the
second Tuesday in April, T$8$, to hold
office for two years The mayor's sal?
ary is fixed a $500*per annum. The
usual corporate powers are granted,
such as the creaticeof a boardLof -health,
a police force, bc
SSESSBSSES&HSSSS?SSSS
THE GERERI? ASSEMBLY.
The-* fotto wing are some of the meas?
ures that? have been introduced and i
acted upon :
Mr. Turner, to abolish the office of
superintendent of highways and devolve
the dattes on the County Commission?
ers.
Mr? Haskell, to allow unimproved
landa, which have not been on the tax
books since 1876, to be listed without
penalty.
Senator You mao's bill 'to amend an
Act to change the time of listing pr jp
(Tty for taxation' caused some debate.
It added to Section 1 of the Act named
the' following provision : ?That the fol?
lowing f gr ?cul taral products, to wit.
corn, cotton, wheat, oat?, rice, peas and
' long forage, made on the day specified
by law, shall be the amounts actually
on hand OD August 1. immediately pre?
ceding the date of said- return ; provid?
ed further, that this shall apply only to
such of sa id products as a: e actually in
the hands of the producer thereof/
The purpose of the bill was to relieve
the farmer from the payment of taxes
on all but the surplus of his agricul?
tural product?, it being estimated that
the amount remaining on band on the
1st of August could justly be considered
a surplus.
Senator Moise moved to re-commit
' the bill as he considered it partial and
class legislation. He made this motiou
with the knowledge that it would be de?
feated, but he would insist upou it.
Senators Yeomans and Sinkler em?
phatically favored tb_. bill and main?
tained that it was not discriminative.
The motion to recommit was rejected
by a vote of 22 to 4.
The bill was tben passed and sent to
the House without a division.
The bill to regulate and restrict the
rights of railroad corporations in ac?
quiring additional lines of road in this
State passed the Senate with amend
ments. As passed, it provides that

out first obtaining a permissive Act

WASHINGTON LETTER.
WASBI5GTOX, D. C., Dec. 3, 1887. . '
The Democratic ' Congressional ' Cau?
cus, which will assemble at the Capitol
the last of this week, will settle the
fate of'a number of aspiring gentlemen
who are ambitious t?~aerve their country
as subordinates of the'House of Re?
presentatives. It is the opioion of many
that the Hon. 'Sunset5* Coxis tobe both
temporary and permanent chairman of
the 'Democratic Caucus. Since I last
wrote you, the situation has changed
somewhat-all the candidates for Door?
keeper having withdrawn except two.
Donaldson and Hunt, a contestant for
the Clerkship haring appeared 'to the
person of W. G. Raines, of Rochester,
N Y>, and it is said that be is support?
ed by powerful influences. On the other
h?od, the friends of the present Clerk,
Gen. Jon. B. Clark, of Missouri, con?
fidently claim his re-election.
Greater interest ia felt in political
circles in Washington as to what may
transpire at the other end of the Capitol
next Monday, as'the seats of at least
two of the twenty-six Senators who will ;
present themselves to be ?worn in on
that day, are to be contested-one each
from Cali'oroia and West Vergioia, to
say nothing cf a 'protest' from Indiana
--the situation being complicated by
tbe fact that of tbe fifty Senators hold?
ing over, twenty five are Democrats
and twenty fire are Republicans-Rid
dleberger included. Thus the Senator j
from Virginia holds tbe balance of
pother. I am informed that it is the
poi icy of the Democrats to forestall tbe
contestM by urging the seating of ali
the new Senators at once in a body, and
in case the Republicans refuse assent to
the proposition, to produce a legislative
dead-lock. The admission of the Sena?
tors from California and WestVirginia
involves the right of the State legisla?
ture to' choose a United States Senator
at an'extra session; thus the decision
in these cases will be useful as a pre?
cedent to settle future contests of this
cbararter.
There is every indication that the
Senate will wage a vigorous war against
the President this winter-the provoca?
tion being Mr. Cleveland's appointment
of the American Fisheries Commis?
sioner?, who rank diplomatically as
special envoys, without the 'advice and
consent of the Senate.' The question
of prerogative thus raised is quite an
old one, dattag back early in thc history
of the Govdrnment, and it affords poli?
tical demagogues a ready subject bf
interminable controversy.
Thc International Fisheries Commis
ste? is DOW ia sttret session si the
State Dep?rtese**, wad consequently
the deliberations of this dignified body
are act known to the public. -
The argument in the Standard Oil
diierimiaation cases, much to the sur*
nrfee of nearly everybody, has been
postponed by the Interstate Commission
till January 16th. From all your cor?
respondes t cao learn of the evidence,
it seems that a rather strong Case has
been made out against the Jumbo of
monopolies, if Jay Gould's telegraph
Hoes be excepted.
Chief Justice Waite, of the Supr?me
Court, celebrated bis seveatv-frst birth?
day this week, bot he does not look a
day over sinsv. years. One year ago
the venerable jurist was eligible to re?
tirement, and be could Chen have re?
signed his commission and demanded
a salary of $10,000 per annum the
remainder of bis life, -fee same may
be said ef Associate Justices f teta,
Miller, add Bradley. Perhaps tn no
other conn try of the world cae bc wit?
nessed four septuagenarians vigorously
working every day, when they could
receive precisely the same compensation
for doing aOtbiagwhatever.
According to the annual report nf the
First Assistant PostasaoterGeneral, the
on to ber of postoffiees in tne Uhithe
States on * June 39, 1<887,
was 55,157 ; it further Snows (he still
more gratifying fact that over 25,'860
Democrats have been appointed* post?
masters d?riog the past two years.
It is surprising to think of (he vast
amount of money lost In? transmission
tbroegh the mails. The report of the'
dead letter office shows that the sam,
of $29,687 was fouod in letters, of
which ?mount $22.639 was returned to
the senders. There was deposited in
the Treasury $6,672. taken from ?tad
letters that could not be restored to the
owners, and also $2,921, the proceeds
of auction sales of packages of mer?
chandise, which could not be restored.
