Method.
t the sheriff's office Information
has been received concerning a very
clever swindle that has been worked

er of means and gets Into negotia
tions with a farmer for the purchase

price and has an abstract furnished
and n deed drawn for the property.
The deed without the signatures of
the faimer and his wife he secures by
robbing the former's mall while It is
In a rural delivery box. He then
forges the necessary names to the
deed, mortgages the land, securing a
co-.if-ic'crahlo sum of money, and flees

" ' t
State Trensurer Itivotnnunds Inherit
nnoo Tax Collector.
In his last biennial report, Issued
last evening, State Trensurer Moore
shows that the cash on hand in his
department at the close of the bien
nial period ending September 30. was
$415,340.19, as against $568,189.65 at
the close of the last report, anl th
number of receipts Issued during the
period aggregates 14.606 as against
12,950 for the preceding two years.
The receipts from the Inheritance
tax for the past two years amount to
$38,481.61. Treasurer Moore says
this tax could be greatly augmented
If the law be amended so that It would
apply to cstntes of $5000 or more,
Instead of $10,000 or more, and by
reducing the exemption to direct
heirs from $3000 to $2500, which
would double the revenue.
He also stnles that the work of col
lecting the Inheritance tax Is becom
ing very great, and recommends the
creation of an Inheritance tax bureau
In connection with the treasurer's de
partment. Soil Swept Off Prult Land.

WHERE IT PAYS
Washington Letter
Washington, D. C, Nov. 23. (Spe
cial Correspondence.) Has South
Carolina violated the federal contract
labor law. and If so. how can the
government punish the state? Is now
the question that Is up to the solicitor
of the department of commerce und j
labor. While the question has been
submitted to the proper law officer of
the department no one here takes
any serious view of the case and, In
fact, but little Interest In It is mani
fested by any one except a few of the
leaders of organized labor. Recently
1000 or more Immigrants were landed
at Charleston, S. C.
It Is admitted that the Immigrants
were turned toward the southern port
by an agent of the state of South
Carolina, and their arrival was hailed
with delight by state authorities and
by the people. By every one it was
looked upon ns the beginning of the
solution of the labor question in the
south, but It was more especially re
garded as marking a new era In the
south, as Immigrant, or at least very
many of them, are expected to become
settlers, taking up tracts of lnnd for
cultivation, thus aiding In the agri
cultural development of the south.
It Is now claimed by some of the
labor leaders that If any Inducements
were held out to the Immigrants by
the agent of South Carolina, that they
would be given employment on their
arrival In this country, It was a direct
violation of the contract labor law.
and they .attach much blame to Com
missioner General Sargent. Just af
ter his return from Charleston, where
he had gone to Inspect the Immi
grants, your correspondent had a con
versation with Mr. Sargent.
The commissioner general was very
pronounced In his statement that the
Immigrants were the best, as a whole,
that he had seen during his term of
office. He further stated that In
consultations with persons from the
south who were engaged In trying to
promote Immigration to tltht section,
he had suggested the present move
ment of seeking Immigrants direct
from Europe. In this conversation
the labor lnw was mentioned, and the
commissioner gave it as his opinion
that the movement was In no way a
violation of that law; that actual set
tlers, more than mechanics or labor
ers were sought for. The decision of
the solicitor of the department of com
merce and labor will be awaited with
much Interest by the people of the
south.
Overhaul Interior Department.
It looks ns If the department of the
Interior was In line for n complete
overhauling. Rumors have been rife
for some time that the president was
convinced a very decided change In
the business methods In that depart
ment was necessary, and It has long
been known that Ih'e Korp commis
sion found the methods not only anti
quated, but In many cases wholly In
adequate to the prompt and efficient
transaction of the government busi
ness, and so reported to the presi
dent. Especially was this the case In the
general land office, and the commis
sion insisted In Its report that n com
plete chnnge In business should be
promptly mndct This may or may not
hnve been the cause of the sudden
determination of Secretary Hitchcock
to resign, for neither the secretary
nor the president will say anything
about It, but It has become known
that the resignation of Mr. Richards,
commissioner of the lnnd office, was
asked for.
