The Freeman goes for the ill behaved
church attendants, this week. The Freeman
is right. Reverence in the house of God is of
the same nature as good manners at home.
When one observes the absence of reverence
in church, one may' be certain that the same
parties wi! i exhibit the lack of good manners
in the home circle. An increase of reverence
in ail persons attending public worship woola
not be at all amiss.

Sumter's School Bill.
Tbe bill to have the trustees of Sumter
school district elected by the people was
referred to committee on incorporation
yesterday, and was reported on unfavor?
ably.
Representative Moses, of Sumter, ap?
peared before the. committee in apposi?
tion to the bill and Representative, C. Ll'
Williamson, also of Sumter, appeared
to champion the bill. Although un?
favorably reported, the bill was given a
place on the calendar of the House. A
petition, with the names of about 250
representative citizens of Sumter accom?
panied the bill. The petition, in substance,
sets forth that by the present mode of selec?
tion of the trustees of that school district the
people have no voice in the management of
school affairs and asks relief as prescribed in
the bill. It is thought if the advocates
of the bill in Sumter will immediately
send a delegation of three or four repre?
sentative citizens here to work for the bill it
will be passed.- Columbia Journal, Dec. 7.

In the Matter of Taxes.
The Columbia Register of a recent date
Sn ys :
! County Treasurer D E Keels, of Sumter,
i was in Conimbia \ esterday to see the Comp
I troller General and the Sumter County dele?
gation in the Legislature in reference to the
I taxes for Sumter County. Mr. Keels says
I the people of the county are very much be
! hind in the payment of taxes and it will be
j impossible to collect them by January 1, even
! if the people could pay them. A conference
! was held with the Comptroller Genera! and
! the result was that the delegation will ask
' that the time for the collection of 'axes in
<that count? be extended. . .'
The financial condition of the State is re?
ported to be very stringent und a strong pres?
sure will be brought to bear on the Legisla?
ture to extend the tune for the payment ot
taxes as this has been a year of unsual disas?
ters.
So far only a few counties have asked for
an extension ot time, but if it is granted to
one the others will claim it also.

Letter From Wedgefield.

WEDGEFIELD, December 9, 1393. j
The worst part of an illegal act is getting
caught, and Wedgefield has at last beet?
caught. A several galloo recepiable of con?
traband whiskey, ordered by a company
composed of Wedgefield citizens, all colored
bot one. was arrested in Columbia on. its way
from Statesville, N. C , and lodged in jail,
very much tb the regret of tbe parties who
bad paid their money and were longing for
the arrival pf their other than "Tillman
liquor." There is evidently a spy stationed
at Statesville; so parties ordering whiskey
will hereafter have tobe particularly careful.
We have no objection to Capt. E. M.
Cooper, as Capt. Cooper; but as a Tillmanite
we have serious objections to his filling the
unexpired term of Col. '!M ellet t. We con?
gratulate Senator Abbott on bis protest.

Life insurance under the

during life, as well as after
death. If you are a ringle man
you owe it to yourself.. If you
are are a married man you owe
it to your family. The time to
act is now. Interesting par?
