The Press and Banner t: ABBEVILLE, S. C. " in Published every Wednesday at ?2 P'J a year in advance. pj loi Wednesday, April 19, 1893. L?{ re; ? It Rf The Cane of MIm Mean*. , we copy irom ine state me miiesi. ?uu uuwi jpr complete account that has been published of pu the manner in which Miss Sadie M. Means of ic this ooumy was recently treated by the Sec- mi ond Presbyterian church of Columbia. rei Without exception every man who has Ti spoken of this matter in our presence has ex- m pressed his Indignation at the manner in wi which the proceedings have been taken m; against her. m The form of the question upon which Miss Means's confession is alleged to have been 5tl made is a method which we think would not dc have been resorted to by any court of Justice m which was governed by a proper sense of cl; right and wrong. ? at Th? question was this: "Do you still habitually violate the Sah. m bath by working In the telephone exchange ?" lz Instead of properly notifying Miss Means of ai the gravity of the penalty which they pro* Ij ' posed to Inflict, and Instead of putting her on le her guard,and Impressing her with the neces. tL Ity of having some one to look after her ic- tt InrmtA on<i baa that aha aruc nnt iinlimtlv onrt Illegally dealt with, the pious and Christian cl preachers make a doable question,to the latter ol part or which they knew she was obliged .to H answer in the affirmative, and It was certainly pi to that part of the question which she did an- It swer, and yet that conscientious Christian m court tukes the advantage of her inexpert' ence, puts a wrong construct Ion upon her words, and Interprets the answer to suit their own purposes, namely: that she had ac- w knowledge*! that she habitually violated the D Sabbath. j The troth is, tbat she meant to say 0< no sooh thing. She plainly meant to say tr that abe still worked in the telephone exchange, and we take it for granted tbat there al was not a man on that coui t who bad not sul c< -> flcient Intelligence to know that they had put ^ the wrong construction on her answer. The j| presqmption is against the fair intentions ol pi any man who would construct such a double Jjj question for an inexperienced person, and it does not sound well for any man knowingly to put a wrong construction on such person's answer. Miss Means bad not violated the Sabbath day. If there had been any violation of the T sanctity of the day it was done by the telephone exchange in requiring her to work. She was its servant, and as suoh she was bound to obey, and Is not responsible. vi Until there is a law of the church forbid- la ding members to work for the exchange, she w, could not have been lawlully turned out of th luc uuuruu lur uolug bU. As we understand It, the pious prosecutor ^ allowed two brothers-in-law who worked on Sunday to remain In the communion from ^ which Miss Means was excluded. No com- ec ment necessary. ' Nearly everybody In this country, either works himself or requires bis employees to do (Q so. To begin: Preachers, we are told, have lo been known to work on or to study their ser- JJj mons on Sunday morning. In so doing they it; were Just as guilty of a violation of the Sab- cc bath as the scholar who studied his lesson, or bt as the lawyer who worked on his case, or as ra the editor who may have written editorials, ot or as any one elre who may have written let- w tera. la There are few families in this community Pf (a who do not sit down to warm meals three u, times a day. To prepare these warm meals re somebody must work. No matter how pious 1 our good people may be, we are not Informed N of any one who does not require their ser\ vants to cootc on Sunday, and we have noi f even beard of any preacher who refuses warm ^ food on that day. Somebody has to work to make It lresh and warm. In hundreds of places we have beard of people working on cr Sunday, but Miss Means is the only person who has yet been excommunicated for so do- "J? log. As there are many thousand women who cook and do household work every Sun- Ni day, is It not possible tbat it is the respecta- ^ bility ol the work which Miss Means is doing tbat excites the holy horror of the pious efl court? If it is not so, why have they not taken steps to excommunicate their own )D cooks and chambermaids? If tbey are really Hi conscientious and honest in their expressed ? opinion of the sanctity of tbe Sabbath, why bi| have they not themselves withdrawn from Ti tbe communion of the church, because they compel cooks and chambermaids to work on ty Sunday? an The cbnrcb has a perfect right to make any rule it pleases as to its membership, but tbe an outside world would have more respect for mi tbe cburch which does not seek to oppress 8,t orphan and unprotected women, while giving special privileges to men. Let the same rule r- . apply to all. While tbe sanctity of the Sabbath is now so zealously urged, may we not ask if there is 71 not profanity in the pulpit, and an irreverent manner of calling tbe name of the Almighty ft hnnrlrAH t.lmon in nno hrlof hnnr Wu mhu? right do we bear of "God Almighty's earth," or "God's church," or "God's Judgment," or "God's ways?" Has any mortal man yet f0] been authorized to call His name, except In ho reverential awe? ,l da ? ? E. Contributed Local*.

Phe Columbia State so far Is the only paper South Carolina that lias published a comste stenographic report of the receut hearg given the black-listed Congressmen by istraaster General Blssell. The report Is too ig for our columus and in order thai our filers might be provided with all that was id at the hearing, we made arrangement* to culate the semi-weekly State as a suppleentof to-day's edition of the Herald. The port may be accepted as absolutely correct, was made by a competent stenographer.? voir Hill HprnlrL The Hock Hill Herald will please add the ess and Banner to the list of papers which iblished Iroin the State the full stenographreport of the proceedings before the Poetaster General. The State containing It was leived at Abbeville Monday evening aod by lesday night at twelve o'clock our suppleent containing every word of it was on the ly to subscribers. Including the heads it ade nearly eleven columns of nonpareili aklng over sixty thousand ems. After printing the Press and Banner on the h, we printed special edition of another pair, and set sixty pages ot brief?the supple, ent, the sixty pages of briefs, and the speal edition of another paper, being over and >ove our regular work. It was a big thing for the State to make the ost important scoop of the year. Every cit. en of the State should read it. Nothing, of jythlog like its length, has been so general' read by our subscribers as has been the six>en column excerpt which we made from le State last week. The full report olanyilng like this Is worth any amount ot traps, picked up here and there, and the speal iu this instance lies in the fact thai no ;her papers than the State, the Rock Hill erald and the Press and Banner did it. The ;ople are primarily indebted to the Stale for ie best Dicce that has been In the impers in lany a day. The Herald says: Like the Greenville News, we are inclined > think the Postmaster General will decline i make any formal decision on the question bether the three tabooed Congressmen are emocrats or not, but will treat them Just as Lher Democratic Congressmen are treated, hat, it seems to us, Is the conclusion he will 3 likely to reach from the facts and statelents presented to him. The three men have jne before him, renounced the Third party ad declared their allegiance as Democrats, 3d, as a practical man, he will no doubt ac>pt the dircct, public declaration of men as ie best possible evidence. We infer from ie remark i of the Postmaster General the Istlnct conviction that be does not Intend lo jnish any man for having opposed Cleve,nd before the nomination or for anything he lay have said against Cleveland. HE QUARTERLY ALLIANCE. be Members Bring- Tbelr Hives and DitasbterN to the Mart for Fash* ionable Millinery. The Second Quarterly Meeting of the Abbe lie County Alliance came oil' at Abbeville Bt Thursday in the Court room. Amone the distinguished visiting brethren b learn was Mr. L\ P. Duncan, Secretary of e National Alliance. Mr. J. W. Bowden, leader of the Third party id editor of the Cotton Plant, in also underood to have been present.

They believe the Alliance 111 yet be instrumental in bringing prospery to the farming Interests of the whole iuntry. The meeting was a pleasant one, and the ethren dwelt together in unity, and sepated In harmony and goodwill toward each her. One of the notable features of this meeting as the absence ol the usual political enthussm, and the lack of zeal or effort* for the tlltlcal preferment of favorite brethren. As r as we are informed neither the sub-treas- { y nor the free coinage of silver was recur- ? d to by any brother. Some work Is supposed to have been done the interest of Alliance papers, but of this a are not particularly informed. In their councils it is said that they did >lhlngatall effecting the public, and that I ey did uotblng which might not be publish- I I in the newspapers.
