AMe Utterances on the Railroad
Cases by an Independent Paper.
-s-4 1 P
- We pubJisti below an eaiioriui irom
tbe Charleston Sun on the decision
of Judges Goff and Siuionton in the
railroad cases, which meets our approval
that we transfer it to our editorial
columns:
W e are bound to say that we con
sider as most unfortunate the result
of the preliminary skirmish between
the State and the United States
Courts on the question of the liability
and status of insolvent corporations
in the hands of receivers as regards
their relations to the sovereign
power of the State and its hitherto
scarcely disputed prerogative of assessing
and collecting the taxes it
deems necessary for the purposes of
government.
For this was the issue which was
really passed upon by Judges Goff and
SimoDton in the United States Court
i t ii 1. . r 1 .
yesterday, no matter upon wnai siae
issues tbe question was brauched
off through the ramifications of legal
technicality and the application of
inconclusive precedents.
* * * The Supreme Court had,
after due procesg, declared this court
without jurisdiction to enter into
the merits of that question. Those
of the corporations which were solvent
were debarred by its decision of
further stay "of the States hand. Not
so the insolvent corporations. The
very court whose jurisdiction to pass
on the question was overruled declared
that its instrument and organ
?the receiver who held the property

had been committed to its charge?
was a competent judge to decide
upon the merits of the question
which it, the principal, had been denied
the right to inquire into, and
that in this indirect and scarcely
merit worthy way it could and did
obtain that jurisdiction over the subject
matter which it had been denied
the right to come by directly. This

equity.

whose precepts though not in the
books are sometimes little less than
divine, to season justice with mercy j
i.i the case of the Sheriffs who be- i
lieved, however mistakenly, that they (
were performing their duty in carrying
out their instructions?
Was it a case and circumstances
uik!it which such severe penalties
could be wisely imposed 011 them,
considering that their crime was
merely constructive at worst?
Is it not enough that the State is
enlightened with regard totbeerroneousness
of its former views, but
necessity is also found to impress it
on her by such severe and plenary
discipline of executive agents and
instruments? Has it come to that
pass where a State cannot test her
soverneign rights by effectual?nay,
aggressive?action without having
before her eyes the unworthy fear
and threat of punishment?
As we have said before, we regard
the outcome of these cases as very
unfortunate, even if it was the only
solution. It is unfortunate, we
think, for the railroads, inasmuch as
it is essential for them to have the
good will of the people, and the impolicy
of antagonizing them, as they
must stand by the State, would seem
apparent, as suggested in his speech
by the able and judicial minded
counsel of the respondents, Mr."
Samuel Lord, whose digest of the
points presented in behalf of the
Sheriffs is reproduced elsewhere in
this paper today.
It is unfortune to see some or our
people so obviously swayed by prejudice
and passion as to forego their

through the infience of political and
personal pique, and to gloat over and

reason. These things we deplore.
We deplore the injection of political
prejudice, however slightly, into the
discussion of questions before the
courts. And we wish to be understood
that this sentence is only intended
generally and is without ref
ence to the esteemed judges of the
T7nito/J fstntps CVmrt. But it all

Court of General Sessions for Lexington
county commenced Monday
the 12'Hb instant, Judge I. D. Witherspoon,
presiding.
Mr. G. A. Derrick was selected as
foreman of the grand jury.
The case of George Kiuard, inrli/.fo.l
fiw nrintinnl ficcnnlt. linnil a
white woman at Irmo last year, was
called for trial Monday. Mr. Montcith,
Kiuard's Attorney, made a motion
for a change of venue upon the
following affidavits:
more affidavits.
Personally comes Walter S. Mod
teith who, being first duly sworn,
says on oath: "That since the lastterm
of this court he has diligently
attended to preparing for the defence
of this case, and has inquired
as to the possibility of the defendant,
lu'a flipnt orpftino- ? fair trial in this
E>~ O ?
county. That an affidavit stating the
condition of things as they existed
at last term of court is on file in this
cause, and deponent here says that
they have not materially changed.
That deponent has been repeatedly
notified by persons whose statements
are entitled to credit, that it will be
impossible for the Sheriff to bring
the prisoner from where he now is
alone to the court room without a
strnnrr o-nard. and even then it will
? ? 7
doubtless be extremely difficult, as
violeuce continues to be freely
threatened. That a perfect reign of
terror exists, and it is impossible for
the counsel of the defendant to secure
any considerable number of
affidavits in support of a motion to
change the place of trial, as the very
best citizens to whom said counsel
have applied, while willing to admit
that the danger exist declare a positive-disinclination
to make affidavit
to that effect. That aftey the arrest
aud examination of the prisoner and
his commitment, a plan to lynch the
prisoner was formed and a large
number of persons visited Lexington
C. H. for such purpose, and they
were only frustrated in their design i
by.the fact that the Sheriff received
warning, aud upon consultation with
the Governor, removed the prisoner
before their arrival. That during
yesterday a large number of persons
said to be from Lexington county*
came to tbe city of Columbia, and
declared it to be thicr intention to
intercept tbe Sheriff and take the
prisoner from him, they believing i
that he was to be carried over to this
point this morning. This. fact was I
^jQugbt to deponent's notice yester*
at about 4 p. ro., by persons who

PRESENTMENT OF THE Git. NL> JU. Y.
'ihe grand jury of Lexington
county beg leave to make the follow
ing presentment:
A committee trom our body visiteu
the poor house, and we are proud to
state that they found only five inmates
therein, who are well cared for.
The inmates and stewards wife complained
of the drinking water, and
on examination the well was found
iu a bad condijjfrjn. We recommend
that the County Commissioners investigate
this*nlatter, and take such
steps as may be necessary to pro
cure better drinking water for them.
We also find that two of the inmates
are insane and lit subjects for the
lunitic asylum, one of them has to be
kept locked up all the time.
We have examined the county jail
and find that the cells are not in as
clean a condition as they should be.
We recommend that the cells be
thoroughly scoured out aud put in a
clean condition at once. We also
found the sewerage of the jail imperfect,
and recommend that the
County Commissioners examine same
and see if it conuot be improved
without too grbat an outlay of money.
We have not examined the public
offices but have appointed the following
committee for that purpose,
to wit: George A. Derrick, P. I.
Rawl and A. L. Hook, and that they
have leave to employ an expert if
necessary.
Only two Trial Justices have presented
their books to us for examination,
to wit: Jacob W. Dreher andR.
L. K 'isler. On examination of Trial
Justice Dreher's books we found
them well kept, all fines collected by
hi:n were paid over to the Treasurer
and receipted for. We feel it our
duty to compliment Trial Justice
Dreher on the business like manner
in which his books are kent.
