THE RAILROAD QUESTION. The people of Kutlierfordton will soon have an opportunity to vote a small tax that will -give to them a railroad which w uld be a powerful factor in the upbuild ing of the town and in devel oping the isolated portions of the county; and this benefit maybe had at a very small cost. The railroad in question is the pro posed line from here to Spartan burg, the discussion of which is now agitating the minds of her citizens who are anxious that the plan should be perfected. There are two questions in connec tion with this new enterprise that deserve to be noticed. The iirst, is why is the city of Spartanburg so anxious for the road or how will she benefitted thereby.9 The secnmi is what win it uo ior me town of llutherfordton and the and trouble, which the people of lower sections of the county? tne town will approve. It is cer With the first of these ques- rainly impossible for any congre- tions we need have but little to do, and we would not discuss it all if it were not for the fact that some of the voting class of our population would be interested to know wliv it is. To those towns already in the clutches of the Southern railroad, the reason for Spartanburg's activity in re gard to this question is very plain. The Southern is growing fat OH of the City by reason Ot l,;l, f;.KfD clo W 411,11 IICIIUO. 7 V V. Ci lllJ-- 111VO " w,! im. iw vun. ... Spartanburg is deeply sensible to b,n i,-h is atinr Iipv committee on reservations ana tlie pro thousands of dollars annually, tpr-Hnu of ,,,,0 in.,i t,nth.-d vp- and of course naturally disposed to ust- every means within her power to rid herself of this evil.

The second question is of more interest to us, and should receive -1 . . n . , due notice and consideration. What will it do for the town of Rutherfordton and the lower sec- tions of the county? First as to the town : If that road were fin- il.rl ,! fln,f -a ; 1Ji"u " 111,111 the town, as our people wculd most certainly demand as a con- , L ., union precedent, it would only be a question of few months or less when every Train runninsr nere would have its station in- wovdd have side 01 the town, and why? Be- cause they would either be forced . . ... to come in or give up their share in the railroad traffic of this nlace.

This road would give through trains to Augusta. Third, by means of ihe proposed lk Oonnty railroad, . woaUlS. be placed in better and more convenient relationship with Co- lunbus, Ilendersonville and Ashe- ville. There would be no doubt is to the construction of The Polk County road, the bonds for which have already been voted, for so soon as its directors can ouium . t- i. : a reliable guarantee of an outlet, they will be ready to begin work. The advantage this Spartan burg line would be to the lower sections of the county is hard to estimate, because of her valuable water-power. Its effect, howev er, would enable her to utilize her water-power and quantities of timber, and by the erection of manufactories, her wealth would be vastly increased We think this is one of the greatest oppor tunities the town has ever had, and -we ask that the people give the question their serious consid eration, remembering that the benefit far exceeds the cost. A proper ventillation of the churches would add much to the comfort of the minister and the congregation during services. Thismight be enjoyed with the ex- hpm tnra nfaverv little money gation to get the full benefit of a sermon where there is a lack of comfort, for discomfort breeds restlessness and inability to con centrate the mind upon the min ister's line of thought. We hope that tie officers of the churches will look into the matter and see if the defect cannot be remedied. A REPORT ON THE PARK. Senator Beveridge Submits one to Accompany the Bill Favorabiy Re- ported A Washington Special to The Char- lotre Observer, the 12th, says c-euator uevenoge, irom me senare l)0i"t accompany the bill appropriating if 5, 000, 000 to purchase two million acres of land for the Appalachian Park. The report deals at length with the subject mendatory from The New York Sun, New "5fork Times, Baltimore Sun, Hart ford Courant, Scientific American, Rich mond Dispatch and Wilmington Star. The report strongly urges the establish ment of the park, savine that although it maybe-urged against it that if is a uow fIeParture-stiU in the Wcst forest reserves to the extent of nearly $5,000,000 acres have been sc.t aside.

OLD MAN CLOWER says why FILfPINO CHIEF'S CRUELTY Buries American Prisoners Up to Their Necks and Then Cuts Their Heads Off. A Boston Dispatch, the 9th, says : A letter received here to-day from a mem ber of Company H, of the Signal Corps, doing service in Hoilo contains a state ment of the fiendish cruelty exercised by a Filipino chief toward his captives. The writer says that there is great ac tivity among the troops, that the iusnr gcnts are very active and treacherous at certain places. The letter is dated De cember 23, 1900, and says: inere are two big leaders here whom the American soldiers are after. One is Gen. Delgado and Ihe other is Pnintia Sails. The first named is a gentleman who treats all American captives as prisoners of war. The other is known as a fiend, and if Col. Anderson or any of the scouts capture him they will give him a short shrift, as he has a number of murders of American soldiers to his credit and there is a big reward for his head. Reports indicate Halis lias two methods of disposing of prisoners, either to bury the man in the dirt up to his neck and then cut his head off, or to lead him out into the public plaza and torture him to death by cutting off strips of flesh with a bolo." Senator Tillman's Vehemence. There are times when emphatic lan guage forces itself to the front, despite the most pleasant of faces, and it is not strange that Senator Tillman should have been equal to one of them. The senator had sat and voted for one private pension bill after another until he got weary answering "Aye." Every one of the beneficiaries lived north of the old red line, while the name ot a venerable Carolinian who had fought for the flag fifty years ago could find no place in the list. ' 'Is the war over or is it not ?" demand ed Mr. Tillman, with vehemence. "Let us find oat whether it is or not I swear by the Almighty God that I will not let another pension bill pass this senate un til this old man gets justice." Senatorial courtesy should at once do the old veteran justice and see that his name heads the list. Senator Tillman was emphatic, but he Lad provocation. Atlanta Constitution. Ths Men of Kansas. The attitude in which the men of Kansas have placed themselves by ap pealing to the lawless instincts of one woman to enforce a dormant law must excite comment. If the prohibition law should be on the statute books, whv not enforce? ! Why not enforce it in the normal and I legitimate way? If it cannot be done, j why not enact laws capable of enforec jinent? The proposal now mado to fol low feminine violence by masculine lawlessness will not better the situation. It is better to be honest and plain, The men who voted for the law should personally concern themselves in making it good. Atlanta Constitution. NOTICE.
