f THE NEWS AND HEBALD. WIXN'SBOEO, 5. C. jP. 3T. HRICE, ) i- PKOPHlETOnS. jr. O. 7>JL VIS, i P. M. SRICE, : : : : Editor. WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 25, : : : 183S. Senator Chandler, after viewing j the whole South, has finally reached I South Carolina. He has introduced a : bill regulating Congressional elections ; in this State. The whole business is j unconstitutional for what applies to ! South Caralina in this matter ought to ; apply tc all the States. Chandler has j made himself the champion bloody j shirt waver, and all he does things of j this kind for is to make political capital lor the next campaign. All his .effortsin this direction will amount to nothing. The people of this country have had enough of these sectional issues, and every effort made to introduce them will result in a reaction against the originators. Chandler is so blinded by partisan ~ zeal that he will never see this, and we await with great curiosity his next bill in this direction. The Blair bill proposes to give $77,000,000 to the States .to aid education in proportion to illiteracy. This appropriation will not run the schools and leave the States free from taxation. It is only, to be an aid. The whole business will be under the supervision of the Secretary of the ! Interior. He is charged with the proper administration of the law. All school books must be subject to his inspection. Reports must be made to him, and he has a right to withhold appropriations unless all conditions are fulfilled. Under the various provisions of the bill it is very plain to see that the South does not want the appropriation, notwithstanding the erv for more monev for schools. V/e would rather tax onrselves than accept an appropriation under such conditions. Lamar's ConfLrmati on. The Senate has confirmed the nominations ot L. Q. C. Lamar as AssOt ciate Justice, Win. F. Yilas as Secretary of the Interior, and Don M. Dickinson as Postmaster General. ! The confirmation of Lamar was more than a party victory.. It denotes that sectional lines have been obliterated and theUnioQ has been restored in deed and in truth. Three Kepub-! lican Senators had patriotism enough to free themselves of party dictation and come out boldly for the common welfare. His election is another blow to that school of politicians headed by Sherman, Chandler and others, whose personal ambition leads them to abase the South on all occasions. May they heed the lesson. Convict Labor. A correspondent of the Charleston San makes some reflections on the system of hiring out convicts which demands consideration. Be thinks that when the State leases convicts to private parties or corporations that honest men arc thereby deprived of employment. The question arises, is this right? ConviGt labor is so cheap that honest labor cannot compete with it. This, then, forces an honest man to idleness ori/1 irllo-npcc to primp. Thft leasing of convicts where it interferes * with honest labor encourages crime, and it should be stopped. It may be asked, what then must be-done with them? Shall they remain idle in the * penitentiary? Utilize them within the walls of the prison and on the State farm. The interests of honest workingmen must be seriously considered in this matter. "Workingmen constitute a large proportion of the Democratic party, and being the friend of the workingmen, the party must look to their interests. Foreign Affairs. There are still rumors of war in Europe., The relations between Austria and Russia are still at a high ten OIVLU JLXJt/ JL aiwou w/v tween these two powers is not of a pacific character. The Czar gives reassuring explanations of the movement of Enssiau troops, and Austria, while claiming to have peaceful inteu9 ' lions at the same time, is gathering her troops on the froniier. It is said that arrangements have been made for a quick transport of Italian troops to / aid Germany in the case of war. The condition of the Crown Prince still hold the attenflon of Europe. While his maledv has improved it is thought that a dangerous crisis may occur at any time. Air. irarneii, in speasing ox j^ugusn affairs, expresses the opinion tkafc there are grave dissentions in the Cabinet and that a crisis may occnr at any time. He thinks the Unionists will certainly divide on English matters brought before, the Commons. In regard to the recent reduction in rents, he does not believe it is one-half of what the tenants are entitled to, and wants to re-examine the whole qnes- j S >?-- tion. Teaehers and theii Paj-. The Abbeville Press and Banner professes a great desire to assist "poor people" in all their straits, yet, at the same time, in speaking of the pay of teachers, among other things it says: j There are amerences iu me vaiue ox: teachers as there are differences in the ! value of the services of other workers. ! But the same man should not be paid i more from the public treasury than j the sum for which the private citizen I could hire him. Our contemporary speaks in this ! strain in advocating reduced salaries i for teachers. No one will deny that | "there are differences in the value of! teachers as there are differences in the . value of the services of other work- j ers." A poor teacher can be obtained for less compensation than a j good one, and as the public schools;! want good teacher?, the proposition ! advanced by onr contemporary .is a j sufficient proof that salaries shonld be ! "N. ' ??a? tfi M?MaeBBi increased rather than diminished, for : thereby the efficiency of our public ' schooi system would be greatly in-jcreascd. It is clear as the noonday | cn? that ?f mil- nnhlic schools are to !! ? I , be of the highest order good teacners j1 must be. engaged. Teachers of ordi-1 nary capacity cannot be engaged to teach at $20 per mouth. The sala- j ries of teachers are already small, and if thc-v are reduced, as advocated by the Press and Banner, the public schools of our State will sink to the ! lowest depths. Our public schools J are not what they should be, but how a decrease in salaries will improve | them we cannot sec. An ordinary j laborer often commands larger wages j than $20, but dees the Press a:sd Ban- I ner place the "sen-ices of a teacher on j the same plane? His duties are im- j measurablv higher and demand larger i wages. To reduce salaries will bring ! poor teachers as sure as the sun will i. rise, and the efficiency of our schools j will correspondingly decrease.' This j is not what we want. "\\*e want our I schools lo increase in usefulness, but with sccond class men at the head they can never improve. There is alwav a cry for reduction in expenses, and probably they could be decreased, but the last place for such reduction is in our educational expenses. A community can well be extravagant in educational affairs for the outlay will bring increesed prosperity as ignorance is dispelled. The Press and Banner believes there j i is iuucu "uiiiuuugxurt iu vui [JUUUU school system, and. will labor for the | correction of these evils with t:\rhat! ever ability it may posses." The theory upon which it is now laboring is radically wrong, the dangerous ten- j dencv of which we trust will never j receive the popular approval. - Can our contemporary give us any j why the service will be increased by a j reduction of salaries? It professes a j desire to increase the usefulness of; our schools. From Savings ana Loaa to Factory. What is most needed in Winnsboro just now is the inauguration of some plan for the accumulation of capital. It is nseless for us longer to discuss - - ___ the erection of a cotton factory. For | some reason, best known to those of our citizens who are able to subscribe, the scheme has failed to meet a favorable response. While it is not our intention to criticise anybody, we suggest that we need more capital and more capitalists. A popular writer on Political Economy, in discussing the increase of capital, says: "At every step of its progress capital follows one law. It arises solely out of saving. It stands always for self-denial and abstinence. At the beginning savings are made slowly and painfully; and the first items of capital have a power in exchange corresponding to the difficulty with which they are secured." A Savings and Loan Association | will furnish the machinery necessary ! for the community to operate under this fixed law which capital follows in its accumulation. The plan on which these associations are managed, without going into rleteiL ?honf- as follows: The "subscriber pays one dollar a mouth for each share taken. These aggregated monthly contributions, as soon-as paid in, are loaned on some approved security at a legal rate of interest. Associations are chartered to run a limited number of years, at the expiration of which time they go into liquidation, and the assets are divided among the stockholders. A young man working on a small salary subscribes five shares. On the first of each month he will be required, under a penalty, to pay five dollars to the Association. This \*iil probably require the practice of self-denial ana encourage a habit of economy. He may have to smoke fewer cigarettes or have his supply of chewing gam reduced, but we venture the prediction that he will survive even ihess hardships. This young man, at the end of six years, will have paid into the Association three hundred and sixty dollars, and his 'five shares will probably be worth five hundred dollars! Our young man is now a capitalist and his savings have become his capital. Jive hundred shares at the above rate would accumulate capital to the amount of $50,000, enough to build [ the factory. In addition to the benefit derived by the stockholders from' the collecting together of savings, the monthly loans would have a tendency to stimulate business and circulate monev. . . . . ^ , i As in Ammai economy Jire aepends upon the circulation of blood, so in Political Eeonomv life depends upon the circulation of capital. We can see no difficulty in the way of the organization at an early day of a Savings and Loan Association in Winnsboro composed ot stockholders not only from town but from the county. And since the four Associations in Columbia have been unable to accommodate all wishing to subscribe we invite our neighbors of the capital to join us. The Tariff Question. {New York Hernld.) Yes, there is quite a difference be-1 tween the Republicans and Democrats j on the tariff questien. j. The Republicans would take the ] i tax off of whiskev. beer and tobacco I; and let the matter rest tor tue present, i: The Democrats would take the tax j J off of fuel, that the people may have j more comfortable shelter, and off of ! j raw wool for two reasons?first, that j the poor man may have warmer and ! cheaper clothing, and second, because ' free wool will start score- of mills ! ^ that are now shut down and give em- ' < ployment and good wages to thons- j; andsof workmen. Xow, these are the facts in a nut- j] shell, and you will simpiy wear your j t shoes out if vou kick against them. " ?. * ! ' ? - ! REMEMBER, PLEASE, i J H. H.
