1 lie Press and Banner By IIii<;h Wilson. Wednesday, August 19,1885. ji_ ??? _ The IlfaiUtor. We are sorry that the Itrgi.ihT a low days nco, took oecnsiriu to say some wry bitter things of the iVctrs and Ojitricr personally, merely as we understand, Because 01 a tiuicr?-nee of oplrtion as to (lie propriety or iriprofirlety of protesting against violations *>f law while entering a plea for the enforcement of tlie law. The .Win* and Courier, wo believe, Is exactly Uptit tn trtant ll says. We presume that no oiVe WonM he so reckless as to say thai any Vvrtlite man hart been punished for crime against the person In this Judicial District t-lnco Democratic reconstruction, C^CCH in the case of a man in Oconee, who deliberately shot a white woman while she was standing IVi the door of her own house as he was passing. Ho was sent to the penitentiary for two years under conviction for manslaughter?if <>Wr memorv serves us right. Is it not a facf iluit ninny of our people have boon killed in the section named? If so, why has notsome of *lw parties been punished? Are the Judges Nvho ball murderers of every degree lo share none of the credit for this conditionof a (lairs, or arc the Juries to shoulder the whole responsibility ? \\'c arc glad that th? position of (lie Xcictc xwd Owrier and the recent articles of the I'rcxxand Manner have attracted (he altet.tiott ot the people and the press. Good will come of it The Pre** mid linnner does not intend fo cover up, cxcusc or palliate crime and If the facts which we publish arc disagreeable ihon those who object to our publishing them must see that the law is enforced at least once iVi till years. If we have erred in our statement of facts we shall be glad to be corrected, and will be W llliirvv till* HIIIVIIUO. Wo protest against crime. We urge the enIforeeinent of tlie law. Certain it is thai nri while man lias hanged in this Judicial I)IsI rlct. The only question uow, is, has any murder Ikjcii committed ? Volonel ('ttlhouii'H Letter. We present a letter from Col. Orvlllc T. Calhoun on the labor question. While tlie letter Is nn Interesting one, yet Vfe would cissent from some of His views. For in, Ma nee, It itccutml i ? us that the plan of going into written contract for labor during .the J>*car is not a good one in every Instance. We j think labor contract should be sontewhat afthe Ohio marriage, during the pleasure of the parties. When a lattorer is dissatisfied we are inclVriod to think it a hardship on the planter iittd on tlie laborer, If he iscompelle.l to l^ccp him and he Is compelled to stHj*: As far as we are concerned, uo laborer would be allowed tc stay on our farm * day after he bo. V-iincdissatisfied, and we should not like tu toed a family of negroes all winter in Uie| hope iliat the head of tlie family would work | fur 118 la the spring. \Ve believe in paying | und feeding hand*only u hert we wai't them, even if We then do have to pay higher wages. The proposition lo form nssocintionr to control labor have, in ttie past, most effectually failed, and we presume they will tail in the )\uure. No man can afford to be controlled by arbitrary rules. Sometimes a man's necessities compel him to pay higher wages nt ono tiin "i than he would pay at another. We tire decidedly in favor of hiring labor during pleasure or go;?d behavior, and no longer. We also advocate the plan of freiucnt p jyhicuU, even if it iuours extra expense to do 60. The Stock .Show lit Ninety-Mix. As will bo seen wo surrender much of our *pace this week to the publication of notes in reference to the Stock .Show at Niuety-.Six. , and toother m afters local to that community. Mi Writing so much it would be strange if we do not still leave unsaid something which wc should have said, and It would bo no less strange if we have said some things which we .ft.....1.1 ?i.l ln.t'uuiiifl Otirlnfiinllmi ItiiK lippll tt> publish a Just,correct and truthful account Mf the matters therein referred to, and wliereV' ire have failed to do so, we plead luck of infor ination or else an excessive amount of Infor. illation on some point by which we may have been misled. The Stock Show was really the best ever held lu thin part of the State. This is the unanimous testimony ol every one who has " Fpokcn to us on the subject. The management, under Mr. James Rogers, Jr.t and others, was superb. It could not have bceil excelled. The gooil order and sobriet y ol the assembly was a subject of remark by ail. Taking the exhibit In anvand every way, ho people of Ninety-Six have reason for con^ratillation at the great success which has attended their uuosteulatlous efforts. Dcnlh of J. ('. (infitun. ( The sio'y of the death of Mr. J. C. Gaston In Atlanta by bisown hands is a sad one Indeed. He was in the prime ol life. In tlie mid<t < ! Ills honors, and surrounded by hosts ol friends. lie had every tiling to live for, and no reason to desire to go hence. There may be men and thero may be times when self Killing is excuiMime, diiv \vu raiiiinnuinuuliow any man in h s right, mind am dnllberHtely kill himself, and leave a dependent family Jo tlie cold charities of I lie world. It cannot be thai Mr. (iaston committed the act from nny disposition to shrink from the discharge of nny duty which life demanded of hltn, but It must be that his mind hud been unhinged from bodily sufterings and mental ? anxiety. We would plncc then out charitable construction on h 1m last net, and would ex press our sincere regret for his death. The C., C. Ci. A C. R. R.

A II "USUI Imid Knoxville Hnilrcad cou'futfy com-1 inciiecu the erection of a l>uiIdliitc in the town yf Greenwood to be used ns a depot, warejftiuso, and unices. We ore informed that the Trout of the building Is seventy-eight feet from the center of the main track of the (Columbia and Greenville Railroad Company. Kverythinsf went on smoothly, to all appearances. until about, the last of June, when President A. C. Haskell of the Columbia a'.id <Jreeuvllle Kail road notitled the authorities Of the Augusta and Kqoxvillc ltailroad by telegraph that the Columbia and lireeiiville Kallrond claimed all the land for one hundred feet from the center of their main track ! on each side of the road, and Uiat he objected to their building the depot. On the fifth of August the Columbia and (In'-enuille Railroad Company tiled a comVialnt ai:ain?t the August-#, and Knoxvl'le Jtahroad Company and the l'ort Hoyal and I Augusta Itaiiroad Company, the lessee of the Auirusta and Knoxvllle ltailroad to restrain them trom building this depot, and obtained from Judge Colhran an order that the defendants show cause before him at Chamber* (Jri August 11th why they should not be restrained from building said depot, and enJo) tling them in the meantime from building ssdd depot or doing anything else complained <1f by the plaintiffs except running their trains a-s heretofore. At the time the order i was signed the depot-had been completed except the painting, but it is said that the j leiirned Judge did not know that fact until after he had signed the order, on yesterday the question came up before Judge Cothran ?>n a motion made by defendants to dissolve 'PI eiilnmlilu 1111,1 ! (IrceuviMc Railroad was represented by \\\ L C. li^pCT. Ksq., and the deicmiauts by I Gumbrell, of Augusta, and Hon. \V.

Inasmuch as they have not taken! Wf any step to condemn so much of the land as Is claimed by iiIaintifT. Tiie defendants say i they are lawfully In possession, as they hHve purchased the land on which their depot Is situated from Mrs. F. K. I'ul're and the Town 9 C'/Ouneli of Greenwood, and further that they I - liad no notice of objection by anybody unI III they received the telegram from President k lluskell on June 20th. W .

E T'i.1. trIi'uj ti,? 4 iifriiihi nnit Knoxviile the right So proceed with their work, but it is likely that this Ik only the beginning of better anil protracted litigation. Other questions, mu-Ii ns the riylit of the Augusta and Knoxviile Railroad to lay anil maintain trneks within the right of way of the Coluiubiaanil Greenville Itailroad, are involved. It Is needle?s to say that we believe the sympathies of this community are entirely with the Augusta and Knoxviile itailroad. |? It is so manifestly necessary to the comfort and convenience of the traveling public for the Augustannd Knoxviile Itailroad to have a u??m1 depot at Greenwood, nnd the complaint of tho Columbia and Greenville itailroad is so groundless and frivolous, that wo hope the defendants may prevail. Especially so, since we lenrn that the Augusta and Knoxviile Railroad proposed to the Columbia nnd Greenville Railroad to Join them in Greeting a union depot, and the Columbia and Greenville Itailroad positively refused to do it. .x. Tore HI* Bride Away From Him. Ijust Monday James Harris, colored, ana Katie Devlin, colored,drove np town in a buggy together in search of a friendly preacher. There wa? nothing very extraordinary or note-worthv In the mere fact of their coining In ft buggy. It was what followed that created the excitement. Almost, before the young ^ couple had gotten out of sight of the public squxre Frank Ansley and Oliver Ansley, lier uncles, cnine after ihenion horseback at tjreat speed. Tills act ou their part drew the Idle crowd around the corner as If a cyclone had struck them anil curried them with Irresistible force. The fleeing lovers were overtaken on Floral Hill when Frank Ansley presented his pistol and to!*! the would-be brldo to halt, looking down 6lie muzzle of tlie shooting Jror. and taking the measure of the man who stood at the buiriness end of the pistol, the bridegroom whs persuaded to come to a standstill, though he realty wanted to co further tip the road. Oliver Ansley walked" up to the bngjry and pulled the bride-elect headforcjtrost out of the buggy, but held on to her wings until s'm was put properly on her pins, when she was marched down town. Jty the time this unique performance at the buggy bad been eoneitided about a hundred spectators were on the ground. J,lines Harris has gone on his way desolato and lonely, wh'lo his bride is in thcold homestead. It is said that she and Harris have Uoili ux pressed tiiu dctvruiiuullou uiar1 i n ?i? ??"ii i n naMwrnntixmBOBamm ?g i rii".l, nniwilhstandiu:; their p recent IroiiMe.

T. 4'lllltOllll S?>IW Opinions as lit Iiom 1Ii?> Jii'si'o Mr.y !>< Citiiirollnl. /TtI'rrss mil! fl'iiniT : The most i m .1 it t (j wens ion for list j consideration of our farmers Is that, ol la hor. This question has boen much discussed since the war. yet no Mop has been taken to regulate it. Wo have the best labor in tin1 world if only properly managed, hut before this can he done tiie larmers must lie organized ntj'.l.work together. It is wonderful how well our farmers have done since the war, if : we take into consideration the many dilliculI lies under which they have labored; hut the | time has come when many of these ditliculI ti.cn can be overcome if they arc only true to tKcmsclvi'Knml just to the colored nice. All observing men have no doubt noticed that year by year the class of negroes who call I themselves day I a bores are Increasing, and If something Is not done to stop .Mils evil it will be hard in a few years to hlto them at any I price. Tito chief reasons why the negro objects to hire by I he yearare: that lie dislikes to do steady work under the eye ot the white man, and then he is beginning to learn that tliciih Is such a thing as living upon the neees slii^a of larmcrs. im.s ciass oi uu.ur i? Kigali! zed and generally stand up to agreement, ('.specially In ami around towns and In the cour.-c of time their numbers will Increase and the evil will spread all over..the country. Just after the war and before the negro was organized a farmer could hire a hand tor fifty ecu's per day, when cotton \Vas worth forty cents per pound. And if you wish to hire one now In the Summer or Kail you must pay sixty and seventy-five rents, i\tul even our jjollar per day when cotton is Helling tor eight ttl" it'll cents per pound. , Now any one can see liowdchiorallzlntr Ibis Is to Ihe labor of the country. Just lei Smith, a day laborer, step over Into a field where .Tones, a hand under contract for the year, Is hoeing cotton, and explain t^i hl??J wlmta fool he Is to work bard all the year round for sixty or seventy-five dollars, when he.Smith can make that much by working by the day in a few nuiiUhs, and loaf the balance of the year. If you tWll then lollow the movements of Jones you will s??e that he will follow the advice of Smith and help swell the ranks of the day laborers. These day laborers wish to get. as many as possible io follow their example so as to decrease the steady labor of the country, and so place the farmer more at their merfcy and then tllo ne,rro is easily persuaded because he does not like steady tVorlt under the eye of the white man, butiiltes to go and come when It pleases him. Another evil which is growing very rapidly is the tendency on the part of the negro to avoid entering Into written contracts. lie Is learning that the written contract tosome ex f'i't prevents lilia from accomplishing one oj his pet schemes and compels him to perform stcau.v labor. It seems to me that the urea tent ambition of the average negro Is lo get ahead of his wages and then (put work, thereby cheating Ills employer out of what lie Is o\Vin*;. lively one who has hired negroes lias experienced this ditlicnliy, bill, let him onee under.-land that when he makes a debt, he must remain with his employer until it. is paid, and my word lor' It, ho will work as hard to keep out of debt and not only the employer will thereby be benefitted, but I he laborer also, for then at the end of the year, their will something coming to him, and he will go away belter satisfied, and can be more easily employed for another. If, however, ou the other hand, lie finds himsell in debt at the cud of the year and has no Christmas money he Is certain to cry out that he has bUl'n cheated?It matters not how much he has spent during the year?and will not only not hirctothcsamcpcoon hut, will iry to per.-u.ide others not t<> hire to him. Von see by not hiring to the same person begets rid oi pn.vIjig his debt, and by crying out that he is cheated lie gels the .sympathy of his race and puu'shcs his employer lor nolfiirnishlug htm with money to frolic on during Christ mas. So universal Is this the ca>e that I knew a nunibu'of farmers who make it a rule to pay their hands something the end of the year to save their eredi! anions the lugroes, and thai, is exactly what tills litilegame is meant tonecoinp'lsli. The negso 1s a good, easy going cream :e, but as a rule utterly void olgratitude, a:id its euriaiu its you are kind and Indulgent to him during the year and allow hint to spend more than you promised to pay and then don't pay him something for Christmas lie will do yo.i all the damage he can. I might go 011 and on enumerating tho difficulties as regards the labor of the day but space '.Vill not permit. Iain frank however, to say that ail the fault does noi;lic with the negro. There are many things pratMlel'd by Mini* or our tanners nuicn m-iu lurieemin and it requires organization to accomplish this also. Wc must li.iii'ii to treat the negro witli linrness I cfo e we attempt to reform his 'A1 ays. We c.tr.no. expect nil of lliu lair dealto be on Ills side. l.ut liim undetsiund that lie Is to receive Just wages and fair dealing from the farmers, and then demand Komi work and /air dealing from him. Thr man who would take advantage of a negroes Weakness alld cheat him should tie held up 10 scorn hy all good men. And where the negro goes into Court to demand his just dues our juries should see that he gels them. We can never have good valuably labor in this Stale until we do Hi's and thereby gain the confidence of the ti*jgio. I know that as n id!" o'.i'; l'armeis are far loo high-mind-id to take advantage of a negro ill any tiling, but III now there area few who do. and these should be taught by I lie better part of our farmers that must act with fairness towards the negro. While on the laborqucslitm I will say something about the lieu law, hut can't say all 1 would like to say, as space A,'Ul..fiyl permit. There Is no law upon our.statute book which woiksas much injury to our fanners as tills law. Its tendency is to make the negro, independent of the farmer, and enables inr.hy who are too la/.y to perioral steady work to eke out a miserable living on a miserable littie farm. Our merchants up to lately were strong supporters of this law, but the more sensible among llicm lire now in lavor of its repeal, as they have found out that it is no longer a ben ell t to them. Of course the negro does not wish to see it repealed, for he knows that as long i<s lie can keep an old mule or ox he can rent land and get a Hinall lien and so escape steady wtirk. l.ot tills law be repealed and ail must hire except the best among them, ami tiic.se will do belter work, as they know they can only remain tenants by hard labor and honesty, and this Is the way it.should be. I have thrown out those few hints in the luipVn tlisit the fanners of this county may lie Itcriorltied by tItem. If tlie.v show ii disposltion to net upon them and. n'tgauizo ihcy can count my feeble assistance. You frequently hear I lie farmers cry out that they arc imposed upon. It Is so. They arc imposed upon, and will continue to ho imposed upon until they organize for their own protection. Look mound yon pnd you will see tf'at all classes of men are organized for their own protection except the .Southern farmers, ami of all classes of men they need organization the most: and if they fail to do so, and arc imposed upon, they must blame themselves. The world is selfish, and each man wiIr look out for himself 11 rst and his neighbor next.. The way to effect an organization Is for each old Democratic club to meet anl form themselves Into a fanners' club, an't then let these clubs w.ork under'a central club. I,c/. lis. try tlic experiment., and if it fails, tucii let us try something else. UUVILLE T. CALHOUN. A FLY IN THE OINTMENT. TlicC'., ?. A- ('. K. It.
