C., July 14th, 1897, Epiror ReFLecTor:—We are call- ed upon to yote away some more of tte people’s money. Our taxes are as high as the luws of the State will per- mit, an‘ my advice to all is vote for law taxes and better laws. We have too many money hunters, too many offices and too many bad men filling them. J want to see a change for the better. It is time for the people to louk and sze what they are doing, They have been promised much and received nothing. It is time to get together and wotk for the poor tax payers. There are some who have voted the best State and county ernment that ever existed, and now want the people to vote the money out gov of their own pockets. We aie poor, and never can prosper so longas the people are under the rule of bad men and bad laws. It is time the people were opening their eyes and secing where we are drifting to. : W.

Tne Barrett neighborhood is a famous place for picnics, anc the annual gathering on Wednesday showed what a crowd can be brought together eccasion.

King, referring to him as the silver tonguea orator of the j easi. Mr. King entertained the as— sembly handsomely in a helf hour’s speech that was a gem of oratory and eloquence. At the close of the speech Prof. W. H, Ragsdale stepped torward and in behalf of the people of the com- hear a speech, uur munity presented Mr. King with a bouquet. The presentation remarks and acieptance were beautifully and | happily expressed, The crowd lingered around enjoying themselves unti' late in the afternoon, and a lawn party tollowed at night.

Wheat A Sean in His Ear for 20 Yeurs. F. B. Benbow, Esq., who. has been suffering for some time with his ear. was greatly relieved last week by having a bean extracted from it. This bean was pit in his ear by bimself about twenty years ago, but he was unable to get it out until recently.

I refer to the quick fire of the Turkish infantry, of such power, duration and effect as had never before been dreamed of. General Todleben wrote later, “Sncoh a shower of lead as that with which the Turks hail our troops has never before been employed as & mode of warfare by any European army.’’ It was more instinct, ex- perience, silent consent and confi- Gence in their weapons than tralping or formulated rules which indwoed the Turkish foot soldiers to adopt this mode of fighting. I had wit nessed quick fire drill in Widdin, but I venture to say that it was not un. til after the first battle that the cffi. sers became really conscious of the terrific power of long sustained quick ‘ire. Our orders were briefly as fol- Jows: ‘‘As soon as you know or sup- pose the enemy to be within range of your rifles cover the space pre sumably oacupied -by him ar pre sumably to be traversed by him with quick fire, independent of dis. tance, duration, difficulty of aim, wobability of hitting and consump -tion of cartridges.’’ The awful ef. fect upon the opponent.of this rule, |. if. carried out as literally and as jmuch con amore as it was by the The Onl” 1 ive-Dollar : Daal: ont the Plevna campaign the Rus Turks, is apparent in the Russian losses, and in the fact that through. sian attacks, with few and unim- + portant exceptions, collapsed, nuinur- fal duperiurity net withstanding, — | Hardee N, G. department, with a message to them |. jandIndustrial School, | DIRECTORY.
