It seems that the Democrats of j

gether in harmony. The Independent j
fever seems to have struck the county, j
and a good many, while pretending to j
be good Democrats, are anxious to :
form a coalition with the Republicans, j

At a meeting of a good number of
tbe survivors of the famous "Wallace
House" last winter it was decided to
hold a reunion of the survivors on the
10th of Novomber. It is expected that
most of the members will be present
at the reunion, and the exciting times
of '76 again refreshed in their memories
by its discussion. Such a reunion,
besides being a pleasant gather
ing for the members from all parts of
the State, will doubtless have a good
effect upon the public mind.

only 250; now it has a population of
6,500, with two or three thousand just
outside of the corporate limits, The
property assessed for taxation in 1S70
amounted to $50,00o; it is now $3,500,000.
The amount assessed in manufactures
ill 1S70 was $25,000; now
$2,250,000. The retail trade of merchants
in IS85 was S950,000; whole

$250,000. There are two banks, with
resources of $s00,000. There are
twenty odd tobacco factories in successful
operation, with an annual
value of products amounting to more
than $3,000,000. iu addition there is
a large cotton factory of 6,000 spindles
and a wooden mill turning out thousands

It seems that Miss Rose-Cleveland
has for the moment abandoned the
profession of letters and adopted the
popular one of the striker. She wants
an increase of $300 per month in her
salary and a half interest in Literary
Life, the magazine of which she has
been editor. Capitalist Eider is contemplating
a lock-out, although, like
the old man who threw grass at the
boy in the apple tree, he has announced
his willingness to ai-bitratc. Perhaps
Capitalist Elder will be willing to take
the salary for his own share and l?t
Miss Cleveland have the whole magazine
for hers before the dispute is
ended. Certainly there should be
some common ground upon which an
\ agreement can be reached. Such
another magazine with such another
editor?or editress, as the case may be
?is not to be found every day, and it
is greatly to be feared that if anything
: should happen to divorce the editress -|
from the magazine it would not be the
same same magazine any longer. Ko
concession should be considered too
great which would prevent a catastrophe
of this kind.

Thk Now York Evening Post says
that the growing prosperity of the
. South is illustrated by tile summary of
progress in the development of its industrial
interests during the present
year, which is published by the Baltimore
Manufacturer:? Record. The
activity in iron and steel enterprises
lias heen remarkable, a iarsre rumbcr
of furnaces having been built or cc:.- j
tracted for, while the number of new
steel works, pipe works, machine
shops, foundries, bridge works and
similar enterprises is very large. The
development in other lines of indusiry
has been almost as great, and this industrial
growth during the last nine
months has added to the number of
manuf; during and mining enterprises
42 ice factories, ranging in cost from
$15,000 up to $150,000; 56 foundries j
and machine shops, many ot thetn ot
large size; 1 Bessemer steel-rail mill,
1G miscellaneous iron works, including
iron pipe works, bridge and bolt
works t:ie., 5 stove foundries, 19 gas
works, 23 electric light companies, S ;
agricultural implement factories, 114
mining and qnarryiug enterprises, 12
carriage and wagon factories, 9 cotton
mills, 19 furniture factories. 21 water j
Aorks, 44 tobacco factories, 71 flouri
miiis and 362 lumber mills. The i
amount of capital and capital stock
represented by the Record's list oi i
new enterprises, the enlargement of
old plants and the rebuilding of mills
during the rim nine montns ot l?su is
$83,834,2u0, against only $52,386,300 ;
during the corresponding period of
1885, and it concludes that "the South
has made more solid and substantial
industrial progress since January 1,
1880, than ever before in the same I
length of time."
Wau may break out in Europe at
any moment, and yet nobody especially
desires war. Indeed, uoiic of the
great powers is exactly prepared for
it. If war comes it will be through
Bulgaria. This is all the more singular
as the only people who have any
real interest in the Bulgarian situation
are ike Bulgarians themselves. Russia's
interests are entirely beyond Bnli

garia, OlUIiUSiia I6 juierieruig 111 oui^ariau
affairs for U>e apparent reason
that there is no other outlet just now
for Russian activity. England, on the
other hand, is evidently backing the
Bulgarians againt Russia, partly because
of the summary treatment of
the Queen's poor German relation,
Prince Alexander, and partly because
of tlw natural British jealousy of
evervthinc Russian. All this mav or
may not moan war. While nobody
seriously means to fight, except the
Bulgarians for their independence,
war^ may be precipitated at any moment
without anybody seriously intending
it. Perhaps one of the most
disquieting signs is the contradictory
rumors that find expression through
the press. One story, for ins'auce, is
that Austria, Germany and Russia
have a plan for gobbling European.
Turkey. Another is that Turkey and
Russia are disposed to join hands to
drive England out of Egypt. If one
of these stories is true the other canKa

has any foundation in fact. Whether
true or not the circulation of such
rumors is in itself an indication of
danger. Such stones show that half a
dozen potentates are going about with
chips on their hats and one of them
may get his chip knocked off. That is
the way war will come if it comes at
all.

The United States Supreme Court
on Monday rendered its decision in
the case of the Wabash, St. Louis &
racmc Itaiiroau, piaunm* in error,
agaiust the People of the State of Illinois.
It seems that the above railroad
charged one firm sixty-eight miles
nearer Xew York than another twenty-five
cents per hundred pounds,
while the place sixty-eight miles further
was only charged fifteen cents per
hundred pounds. This discrimination,
it is alleged, was in violation of the
Illinois law, which prohibits such disAmminoiiAn
flva Snnrpmp fVvnrf. nf
the State decided adversely to the railroad
and it went up on appeal to the
Supreme Court of the United States.
The substance of the aecison is as follows:
When it is attempted to apply to
transportation through an entire 6eries
of Stales a principle of this kind, and
each one of the States, or half a dozen
States, shall attempt to establish its j
own rates of transportation, its own
methods to prevent discrimination or
to permit it, the deleterious influence
upon the freedom of commerce among
the States and upon common tr&aspor-1
tation through those States cannot be
overestimated. That this species is j
one which must be, if established at
all, ol' general and national character,
and cannot be safely and wisely remitted
to local rules and local regulations,
we think it clear from what has
already been said, and if it be a regulation
of commerce, as we think we
hove demonstrated, and which the
lower Court concedes it to be, it must
be of that national chacacter, a regulation
that can only appropriately be
by general rules and principles, which
demand that it should be done bv Congress
under the commerce clause of
the Constitution.
Justice Bradley delivered a dissenting
opinion in the cage, in which the
Chief Justice and" Justice Gray concurred.
This opinion states that Congi*ess
has the right, if it see proper,
Kn >nnffni' n ivlnt* OAnClHDV
LV I uj; uiaig nig uianwi uuuvi wuoauvi?>
ation by the Court, but having failed
to do so, the State docs not lose it
power to regulate the charges in its
own borders, because perchance the
goods transported have been brought
from a point without or destined to a
point beyond the borders of the State.
From the decision of the Court it
seems that the matter of regulation
of charges on railroads where they go
from one State to another must be
done by Congress, and that it is a right j
exclusion in tiic National Legislature. '

Onr Public Schools.
From the Columbia correspondence ;
of the Neics and Courier we gather ; t
! the following statistics in regard to tl.e i t
; public schools of the State, which has ! ]
hren dpi-ivpd from the foi'thcotninir i
annual report of the Superintendent j
' of Education: The number of schools !
j during the last year has increased I
from 3,562 for the year previous to
3,660, showing an increase of 98. j
! Nineteen counties of the State, among J
which is our own county, show an !
increase in ibe number of public j
schools. Eleven counties report a de -!
crea>e,. while four show the number j
unchanged from the previous year. I
The number of pupils enrolled for the j
year 1884-85, including colored, was ! j
178,023. For the year 1SS5-86 the ! 1
number has increased to 183,966, show-! 1
' ' i .
I ing an increase of 5,943. There has '
been a decrease of 22 in the number of;
i colored pupils last year as compared j
with the previous year, while there j
has been an increase of white of 5,965. i
There has been an increase in the '
!
average attendance of both whites and ;
; colored. There ha? also been an in- !
crease of 62 in the number of teachers. ,
The average monthly salaries paid j
to teachers was?to males, $24.94; to ;
I females, $25.30; showing that the aver- j
age salary of the females was greater ;
than that of the males by 66 cents.
The total amount paid to teachers for
j the last year was $364,111.27, and the ;
! average length of session 3? months,
the same as the year previous. ]
From the foregoing it will be seen i
i that there has been a general increase '
; of attendance notwithstanding the J
! shortness of school funds. This is j
certainly a creditable showing, and ]
one of which our people.should feel
proud.

The Minerals of the United States. '
The United States Geological Sur- !
vey has just published a condensed ?
statement of the amount and value of ]
the . mineral products of the United
States for the year 1885. It amounts
to the very respectable sum of $428,521,356.
Comparisons are made with
the product of 1882-3-4. The noticeable
features of this comparison is that
amounts have increased, but values
decreased, owing to falling prices, j
The valne of the mineral output for ]
-t Airr m r* ror> T_. i OOO ;t ]
iooz was q>-fou,zio,ootf. xu 1000 n uau
fallen to $452,166,748 and in 1884
reached low-water mark at $413,214,748.
The product of 1885 at $428,521,356
shows that the asccnding grade
has been reached and the product of
; the present year is certain to show a
j marked improvement, owing to the
| general business revival. The output
| of coal and iron will be largely inI
creased, if nothing else.
The mineral productions of the
j country is divided by the survey, for
| purposes or ciassiiicauon, nuo metaiuc ,
' and non-metallic. Of the metallic <
| products, pig-iron leads the list, with |
| a total value of $64,712,400. Silver '
| comes next, with a coining value of J
' $52,000,000, and gold takes third
| place at $21,801,000. The value of the
copper is placed at $18,292,999, and
the lead at $10,469,431. Zinc is the
only remaining metal, the value of
of which exceed a million, ?hc output j
being piaced at $3,639,856. Of the
nonmetallic products, bitumiuous coal 1
leads the list with a total valuation of (
$82,347,64S. Pennsylvania anthracite ]
follows close with a valuation at the J
; mines of $76,671,94S. Crude petro- 1
i leum, another Pennsylvania product, ]
is fouth in-ihe list, valued at $19,193,- i
G94. Lime occupies third place, the 1
forty million barrels produced being 1
valued at $20,000,000. Building stone i
occupies fifth place at $19,000,000. The
I other nonmetallic mineral values of
which reach above a million, are nat- 1
ural gas, salt, cement, phosphate, J
limestone for iron flux, mineral waters and
white zinc, in the order named. ]
The total vaiue of the metallic products
was $181,589,365; that of the nonmetal|
lie specified $239,431,991, leaving an
[estimated unspecified product of$7,
500,000. 1

It is worthy of notice that whiie
[ Pennsylvania produces none of the j
precious metals it Itads all of the s
States in the total value of its mineral
products a long way. It furnished all |
the anthracite coal, nearly all the
petroleum and natural gas, more tban (
one-third of the bituminuou* coal,

nickel and a big share of the lime and
building stone. It is impossible to
compare the mineral products of 1885
with those of those of agriculture and
manufactures for the same year, as 110
accurate statistics on these points are
available since the ceusus year. For
1879 the estimated value of all farm
productions sold, consumed or on hand
was placed at $2,213,402,564, or more
than five times the value of the minerals

was $1,018,106,016, or nearly two and
a half times as great as the mineral
product of last year. A comparison
of the values of the mineral and manufactured
products would, however, be
misleading at any time, as the pig-iron
and some other important items would
| appear in both lists. It would be in
teresting to compare the value of the
mineral products of this country with
those of the other nations of the earth
if reliable statistics were at hand. In the
absence of these it may be taken
for granted that the United States
leads any of them i:t the total value of its

Tariff and Pauper Labor.
In this clay of so much agitation on
he tariff, and so much discussion of
he pauper lab^r of Europe, it will be
interesting to hear from one who has
made a personal observation of the
conditions. Senator Butler, who spent
several months in Europe this sumner,
in his speech in Charleston last
.veek expressed himself quite freely
ipon the tariff and its effects upon
abor. He was followed by Mr. Dibble
in the same strain. The News
jiid Courier, in commenting1 upon
;heir addresses, says:
We hear > ? much of tlie pauper labor
>f Europe that it i< hijfhlv interesting
.0 have the views of a keen and close
>bscrver who has no leaning towards
breign ways or habits. Senator Buter
has just returned from Europe, and
le gave the mass meeting on Thursday
tight an inkling of what he learned
here.
L The broad statement was made bySenator
Butler that the European
aborer, under normal conditions, is
lappy and contented. It is true that
ie receives less for his labor than is
:>aid in America, but the money in
Europe goes a good deal farther.
Senator Butler visited the tenements
>f the laboring people and found them
;!ean and comfortable. The people
vere dressed well, and were as healthy
i set as he ever saw. This is a heavy
)low, assuredly, to those who insist
hat the laborers of Europe are ali
miipers, and that they are made so by
iree trade or low tariffs.
On the subject of the tariff'. Senator
Butler made some pregnant remarks,
rhere are only two classes, he said,
svho want high tariff, and these ar%.the
arjje exporters in Europe and" the
manufacturers at home. One of the
worst aouses is mat 01 unaer vamaion.
Like smuggling it is almost a
necessary consequence of exorbitant
import duties. Systematically in
Europe the exporters invoice their
roods at from five to thirty per cent
selow the market value, ami by these
means cheat both the Government and
the consumer. The Government loses
'he full duty which the law imposes,
md the consumer buys the imported
irticle on the basis of its actual cost,
md not of the reduced invoice price.
The light will shine out after a time,
rariflf revision will surely come, and
Mr. Dibble announced the opinion
that it would come very shortly. His
objection to the present tariff, howjver,
was based upon the fact that it
produces a surplus in the treasury
rather than upon its protective features.
The surplus is but one of the
incidental disadvantages of our tariff
system. It can be disposed of by
spending it. It can be returned to the
people through appropriations for
public improvements. The surplus is
not the real difficulty. "What we cannot
escape, or in any way avoid, is the
crushing taxation, amounting to ever
forty cents on the dollar, on nearly
article that we wear, or use, or consume.
It is not a question of a surplus
of fifty million dollars, but of
fleecing the people of the whole couutrv
to the tune of hundreds of millions
>f dollars every year.
We are glad indeed to see the tariff
touched upon so frequently in discussions
in South Carolina, and wish
most heartily that the young Democracy
of the State, those who will -in a
short time be in the lead in the manlgement
of public affairs, would dfirote
themselves to the study of the
'UUJtJUt, UZIU SU lie J [J LU give LUCJLl [)CW
pie far greater relief and far more
Dope than can come from any movement
which is aimed at State legisla:ion,
and State policy alone.
