It was the occasion of
the unveiling of the
statute of the and
Chieftain,
BOOTS Edward Lee, the largest
of its kind in the world. The
statue is a magnificent specimen
of work. The pedestal and base
are of white granite, on the upper
portion of which are four darker
hued polished columns so
ranged about the corners that it
appears supporting the mas-
bronze horse and rider above.
Upon each side in gilt letters is
the word This base and
pedestal stand feet above the
ground, and the horse and rider
making feet more. Competent
judges from among the most
prominent people of our country
pronounce it an excellent work of
art and a splendid likeness of the
immortal Lee.
The occasion of the unveiling of
this monument is one never to be
forgotten, for after those of this
generation have long rested
the tomb, history will continue to
hand it down through ages yet to
come. It was a grand day for
the South. It was a proud day
for Richmond. That historic city
was never gayer. Its principal
streets were elaborately decorated
their entire length. In
this particular no pains or ex-
had been spared. Building
after building was enveloped in
flags and banners, until the streets
presented great rivers of color.
Right along side each other as if
portraying our now firmly united
country were the stars and bars
of the Confederacy and the stars
and stripes of the Union with here
and there a tattered battle flag
that had cheered many a brave
soldier on to conflict. Her busy
thoroughfares swarmed with
thousands of infantry, cavalry,
veterans and citizens, all
eager to pay willing tribute to
Lee. For days prior to the great
event people bad constantly
poured into the city, and those, to
whose memories the sound of war
times is still fresh were ready to
say how the clash of drum, the
glitter of bayonet, the quick meas-
tread of marching soldiery,
took them back to those days
when the hosts were gathering at
Richmond for a different object
than that for which they bad now
come together. Then they had
come to follow their leader and
lay down their lives, if need be,
a willing sacrifice to the cause
which he and they espoused as
even dearer than life itself; now
the survivors of that great struggle
had come to do honor to the
of their Chieftain, for comrade
to greet comrade once more and
to talk over those dear old times
which tried men's souls and bound
them as brother to brother.
Thursday, 29th of May, was set
apart as the day for the special
exercises of the occasion. Nature
smiled propitiously upon the
and it with a perfect
day. At mid-day a procession
formed and marched through the
principal streets of the city. This
procession contained more than
men and was three miles
long. In advance of the
passed a company of mounted
police followed by com-
on foot who kept the way-
clear through which it might pass.
Then came the gallant General
Lee, chief marshal of the
day, with his assistants about
in number, all mounted.
in open carriages fol-
lowed next, these being a number
of surviving Generals of the
war, of many of the
Southern States, United States
Senators, members of General R.
E. Lee's family and others. Be-
hind the carriages came the sold-
the largest gathering of troops
in peaceful intent ever known.
Hardly a Southern State but what
had representatives from among
its Guard. South Carolina was
first with nine companies; North
Carolina next with eighteen com-
; us add here by way
of parenthesis that the North Car-
troops were as fine a body of
men as could be found anywhere
in the procession, and no more
generous cheering was given any
portion of the line than that com-
posed of our soldiers and
then came Mississippi with two
companies; Texas with one com-
; Maryland with a whole
regiment; the District of
two companies; Alabama,
two companies; West Virginia,
five companies ; Virginia with her
whole guard of infantry, artillery
and cavalry ; Georgia and Louis-
also having representatives
in line. Then there were
other societies. The procession
was in Hue about five hours. It
started at o'clock and after get-
ting on the street leading to the
a halt was made, the
soldiery opened ranks and the
veterans passed through, it being
arranged that they should be in
front at the monument. The head
of the procession reached the
monument after o'clock and it
was before the last com-
had arrived. Thousands and
thousands of people filled the side-
walks, buildings, and stands
for spectators along the route
and cheered the procession con
as it passed. There
were many impressive incidents
along the line of A no-
feature were old
uniforms, many of which
could be seen, some moth-eaten,
some having bullet holes in them
and all more or less faded and
worn. Whenever one of these
passed people shouted themselves
almost hoarse.
At the monument Gov.

with an appropriate speech and
introduced Gen. J. A. Early who
was to preside over the

Gen. Joseph E. Johnston, under
escort of two old soldiers marched
to the base of the monument. As
General Johnston lay
hold of the ropes and drew the
veil which exposed the beautiful
statue to the view of
who were gathered in sight of
it, a prolonged cheer went up from
the multitude The people fairly
shouted while flags, banners and
handkerchiefs waved, and old vet-
wept and hugged each other.
While the cheering was at its
highest the which had
been stationed in a field just north
of the monument, opened fire and
kept up continuous booming for
several minutes, the infantry in
the meantime firing volley after
volley, and two regiments of
began charging upon each
other; the advancing forces, the
flash of and the roar of can-
non and musketry making up such
a sham battle as to give the
a good idea of what a
war would be, and to the veterans
bringing back memories of warlike
days.
It was amid just such scenes as
this, and surrounded by such en-
expressions of patriot-
ism from those who have loved
and ever love the name of Leo,
that this statue was uncovered to
be kissed by the rays of a sun soon
to sink in its evening rest, and to
be left with no canopy above save
Heaven's own blue dome. And
there it stands, a monument to the
memory of the departed Chieftain,
and a testimonial of the love of his
people.
At night on the field near the
monument was a magnificent dis-
play of fireworks, which brought to
a close exercises of a day never
to be forgotten by the participants,
and a day to which we can all look
with pride, because in thus
honoring Lee we ourselves.

Mr. Plumb has introduced a

are voting when they pass a
tariff bill affecting the prices of most.
or all of the productions and
of the United States.
The present practice with tariff
bills enables a committee inspired

bill through without any
consideration and which none but
an expert can understand. Until

members don't know why or what
they have increased or decreased in
duties in the long lists of tariff rates,
and a great part of the details of
the bill the committee that drafted
it are guilty of the same ignorance.
The resolution directs that

Senate, connection the tariff
bill, a statement showing the duties

Meeting.
The Justices of the Peace of the
county met here Monday for the
pose of making the tax levy for the
next year, and to elect a Board of
County Commissioners and a Super-
of Education. In making
the tax levy the Board of
were in session with them.
The Chairman of the Board made a
statement to the Justices that there
was on hand and to the credit of the
county between and
amply enough to defray all county
expenses for the remainder of this
fiscal year, and that after
the Board was of the opinion that
a levy of cents on the
would be sufficient to meet all
requirements of the county governs
for the next year. This is
cents lower than the levy of last year.
After a full discussion of the matter
by the Justices a motion was adopted
to make the property levy cents as
the Commissioners had recommend-
ed. The poll tax levy was placed at
cents. The different schedule
taxes were levied the same as hereto-
fore, A motion was offered to re-
place the tax on marriage licenses,
but was very promptly voted down,
the Justices standing by their de-
of a ago that there shall
be no county tax on marriage licenses.
Several speeches were made upon
this question.
The matter of constructing a dam
and new roadway from the north end
of Tar river bridge at Greenville out
beyond the high water mark was dis-
cussed at length and the Justices
authorized the Board of Commission-
to expend as much as if
upon the same. Quite a
number of Justices from various
of the county spoke favorably
to the project and expressed them
selves as anxious to see the roadway
built. During this discussion a
strong sentiment was developed in
favor of working convicts of the
county upon this roadway and also
upon the roads, and there was
a request by vote that the Board of
Commissioners make an order to this
effect. Such a step will materially
lessen the expense of constructing
the roadway, and also give a better
system of public roads, while at the
same time the tendency will be to the
lessening of criminal offenses in the
county.
The Commissioners then withdrew
and the Justices went into an
of a Board of
for the two years beginning
December 1st, 1890. The entire old
Board was placed in nomination and
a number of speeches complimentary
of their past faithful service were
made, but the highest compliment
that could be paid was re-electing
them unanimously by acclamation.
The present County Superintendent
of Public Instruction was also re-
elected by acclamation. This coins
the work for which the
had assembled, and after hear-
a brief statement from the Super-
of Public Instruction the
meeting adjourned,

Danger of Travel.
If one wants to get a lively sense of
what it means to rush through space at
fifty or sixty miles an hour he must
get on a locomotive. Then only does
he begin to realize what trifles stand
between him and destruction. A few
weeks ago a lady sat an hour in the cab
of a locomotive hauling a fast express
train over a mountain road. She saw
the narrow bright line of the rails and
the slender points of the switches. She
heard the thunder of the bridges, and
saw the track shut in by rocky bluffs
and new perils suddenly revealed as
the engine swept around sharp curves.
The experience was to her magnificent,
but the sense of danger was most
palling. To have made her
complete she should have taken
one engine ride on a dark and rainy
night.
