Letter From Wedgefield. WEDGEFIELD, November 25, 1893. We congratulate you, Ur. Editor, on tho change which appears in jour paper for the i time tait week. It always bas been : yet g?neront, spreading abroad in the r truth* that need no more proof than i?s past record. The future of yonr paper never waa brighter than at present, for oar people are all the time becoming more and more educated up to reading the papera and the time wM soo? come when no boote in the county can afford:-to : do.without a paper and the best, ot coarse, always baa the pICWMttCB ? The JHoenc starting the same time speaks eves snore for the acople o/ Sumter. The people of Wedgefield heartily endorse toe action of Senator Abbott tn Che matter of a successor to Col. Mellett. Efts successor belongs to the Conservative faction just as s jre as Col. Mellett did. We won by a fair, squaw election, asid the proper coarse to pursue is through the representatives, and they should recommend, not only a conser? vative, but the best sailed for the position among th? applicants, belonging to that faction. We has? never received any favors from th* Reformers and they have no right whatsoever to expect any from us. I would only agree to recommending a Reformer in the event that tte candidate individually wonjo" beiooedto besonerior to all of the Conservatives presentad. Senator Abbott ii, too, to be commended for bis decided conser? vatism in the matter. It only shows cone!a sively thai there is only one right course to pursue. Mr. Richard I. Manning's tetter should bs endorsed by every mir minded white man in the State, aad it ia hoped that he will receive the hearty support of every Democratic member of both bootee. The met that aa Australian Ballot, Law has never been repealed only proves that it is' what ia most needed in the Sooth, to insure white supre? macy. As Mr. Manning bas well said the eight hex hw aiiajin ud the. need then, but there io so mach room for objection from -which the plan he now advocates is free. Whan he lu jabas W/jtfrjtfwfcojt?gnu law, we hope he or someone etas wHT advocate and get passed a hw forbidding the paying of taxe? bj w^ fa* tfr e4?ao> averroes. We pay dearly for every thing we get from them, 3y^tm?"^ bom and raised among them knows them well and hoe aa friendly feeling toward them as any other Southerner, and the Southerners ase the only people who io really sympathize with them, for they can best overlook their many short comings-but it is to imposition for us to be forced to help them so liberally when there ia no charity in it. A negro, Henry Tredwell, in attempting to get bia dog on? of the. way of'*' touring trait? on the South Carolina R. R, hear Middleton a lew days ago, got bia dog killed and himself badly hort on the head by being knocked from the track. If there*is anything in the saying that a negro's brains are in his beela then his chances for recovery will be better than were they in the place generally supposed. Mr. Benny Mirna, reported last week as being ill with typhoid fever, is very much better and nopes to soon be-out again. Mrs. James ?. Caldwell (nee Ryan) bas been critically ill, bot her many friends will be glad to bear that ber condition is very mach improved. WASHINGTON LETTER. WAsmseroN, Nov. 27, 1893. ?'r^B^^^rt^^is is not ?trange, although they pretend to think it so. The Chicago platform declared against tbe-doclnne of protect lion ?od io favor of a tariff for" reven oe only, and the Wilson tariff bill is in letter and spirit strictly in accord? ance therewith. It gives the largest free lilt the country boa ever bad and ia accordance wita the expressed wishes of hundreds of manufacturers in that free list ia included much of the raw material used by American msofecturers. Among them the following : iron ore, coal, pig tin, hemp, flax, j a te. Jail ver, bjndmgtw%^ oc>%o^ Jne?^ and lumber not a?vnsced in preparation beyond sawing. It cms aboot every protect i ve item, in the Uc Kinley^ av-'1 oown> to a strictly revenue basia. The new? bi* is. in the main satisfactory to democrats, although there are some things on the free list that some democratic mem? bers of the House would have preferred seeing a small du y retained upon. Prominent among these are iron ore, lead ore and coal, bat the democrats on the committee after carefully studying the matter from every point of view concluded that it woold be undemo? cratic to make fish of one and flesh of the ether and they were accordingly pot on the free list.. Those who ure., best io formed be? lieve that the judgment of the majority of the Ways.and Means committee will oe endorsed by the majority of the ?.??ose~and tb*t the bill will be passed by that body substantially as it is to-day:. rJ^beJaeySm ot^ the Senate is j not so certain'. The op^oit?cm will be con- j ceotrat^gupooj^me Senaate, because of the, slim democratic majority in that body. There ar several reasons why a section pro? viding for a personal tadorne tax was not attached to the mm In the first place there are quite a number of democrats who are opposed toa personal income tax. But pro? bably the strongest reason of all was the desire to know jost bow mach revenue it will be ueceanry Co mise by an income tax before deciding the tale and method of that tax, a knowledge that could not be obtained until the new tariff bill becomes a law. Mean w bi lethe tax imposed by the bill upon the net earnings af corporations may prove a satisfactory substitute for a more general income tax. President Cleveland will not, lam informed on good authority, go into the Hawaiian matter in bis annual message further than to say that it will be fully treated in a special message later^ He prefers wait until the episode i*rlo8?d before de* li a g with it in a message to Congress. Secretary Lamont's annual report was the first to be made.public, those of. the other members of the cabinet, with the exception of Secretary Carlisle will follow dntingtbis week. Secretary Carlisle's report will probably go to (Congress before it is published. Why shouldn't the U. S. government print its own postage stamps? Chief Johnson of the Bureau of Engraving and Printing isn't the first man who bas asked that question, but bo has. asked it in a very prac? tical 4?m*n?& by*, submitting figures to tbe Post Masier Geoeral snowing how much cheaper tbe Bureau ?if Eeg ra vi og and Printing could do tbe work than any of the private parties who have submitted bids for printing the stamps during 1894. Aa unoffi? cial estimate is that the government could save at least $25,000 a year by printing its own postage stamps. There ia a doubt it seems ai to whether {the Post Master General can under the present laws give the contract to the Bureau of Engraving and Printing, and the matter is now. being considered and will iu a lew days be decided. Secretary Herbert fhhtxl, notwithstanding the present depressed condition of govern? ment finances, that we should continue mak? ing addition to our navy, and bis annual re? port will recommend the construction during the next fiscal year of one battleship and four torpedo cruisers, and there is reason to believe that the recommendation will be endorsed by the President's message. Repre? sentative Cummings, chairman of the House committee on Naval Affairs, says there will be no trouble in getting a bill favorably ; reported from that committee to carry out I the Secretary's recommendations, and that he j hopes the bill will get through all right, -but it is plain to see that he bas some doubts aboutit. There area number of democrats in the House who will oppose any further expenditures for new vessels at this time, some because they think the navy already large enough, and otbeirs because they think Ute money cannot be spared.
