A PAPER FOR THE PEOPLE.
The Heralb is in the highest respect a Fam

Trial Justice Courts.
A country delegate to one of our
County conventions, last summer,
dvocated the election of trial
justices by the people, saying:
Lots of men gits appinted trial
justices that aint fit for nothing."
Fhese plain words, plainly spoken,
but gave voice to the popular dis
content on this subject. There are
persons who woulo find fault with
"a Daniel come to judgment," for
they must have something at which
to direct their carpings and flings;
but it cannot be. denied that our
present system of trial justice courts
has been a fruitful source of popular
discontent and legislative discus
sion. We believe that this discon
tent is not unreasonable, and that
it springs from the unwisdom of the
system itself, rather than from a
corrupt or oppressive administra
tion of the courts.
The judicial system of a State
should be crowned with the wisdom
Df the government; and we most
reasonably look to our courts for an
exemplification of the wisdom of
Dur lawmaking powers. A court
that does not meet the ends, of
justice and at once command respect
is a judicial mistake, to call it by
no harder name. Wise laws are
very well; but wise laws wisely
administered are the best fruits of
advanced civilization.
The fact that this system of
courts was established to satisfy a
prevailing need, and that the trial
justice courts are little respected
but bitterly cursed, shows that the
system itself is radically wrong.
We have no desire to be unjust or
needlessly severe towards any pub
li institution, but we have little
respect for this.
We believe that trial justice
courts tend to foster rather than to
discourage litigation; this may be
he fault of the workings of the
courts. We believe, too, that im
partial decisions, as a rule, cannot
be had in these courts; this is the
fault of the system itself, together
with the infirmity of the human
judgment and understanding. The
plaintiff makes a statement of his
case to a trial justice and asks for
counsel; the justice gives him ad
vice and brings the suit according
ly; and when he tries the case, he can
not get from behind his prejudices
and expressed opinions, for trial
justices are human. He may in
tnd to be impartial, and may
think his decision just; but the
mischief is that the man who follows
his own judgment alway.s feels that
he is acting impartially and fairly,
no matter what influences may have
given bent to that judgment.
A trial justice appears in a trial
justice court as- attorney for B. and
fails; he then tries a case between
B. and his former opponent in his
own court; and being human, he is
partial t- his former client. This
kind of practice is a mockery of
justice and is wholly inadmissible.
The man who gives the counsel
and issues the papers should have
nothing to do with the trial. We
feel, then, thiat the system should
be remodeled, and that we should
have Judicial and Ministerial
Justices of the Peace. One officer
should issue the papers and another
try the case. This would not give
entr. satisia>tion, hut it would be
a marke.l improement, and( would
shield the ma3hiiery of our courts
from so gene.ral and so mnerited con
tempt. His words are---Lots of
mn gits appinted trial justices that
mint fit for nothing."
"There is a boarding house in
Spartanburg which is turning off
43,920 biscuits a year." Very
goo'd! At this rate they will all
soon be "turned off," and the
.oarders may get wholesome bread.
The average boarding-house bis
cuit and the cook that makes it
oght to be turned off! Spartan
burg is providing agarinst dyspepsia,
and? is doing wisely. Yes, "turn
them off," and keep them off by
force if necessary.
One of the drawbacks of married
life is sickness of the little ones.

A Dilemma.
The Greenville News advocated
four club meetings a year, in off -
years, for the- purpose of teaching ce
the people Democratic principles ; u
we opposed the meetings, but were
asked to revise our decision. We ch
then asked the News what principles a!
it proposes to teach ; but our con
temporary fails to answer. 'It talks to
in a wild, uncertain way about Jef- T
fersonian Democracy; but, on our
honor, we are unable to find out 51
what our contemporary does believe. e
It seems to believe one thing in one mf
issue. and another thing in the next. c
It is Democratic to-day; to-morrow a
it thinks the Democratic party has t
no hope of success. Hear our con- dc
T]
temporary:
The fact is, the time has come at
when politics are so much mixed 1M
that no man can tell where he be- tri
longs or what he is, and a re-arrange- t
ment and new formation on new
lines is inevitable. The News be
lieves itself to be a democratic news- t
paper because it advocates the dem- P
ocratic principles of no protective fc
tariff and opposition to the central- tl
ization of the government. But
whether those principles or either of w
them control the party that may 0
elect Sam Ranglall speaker is a ques- d<
tion. If the News in 'standing for tc
its conception of Democratic doc- B
trine is opposed to the doctrines of
the organized Democratic party,
what is it, and where. is it ? We s
have many thousands with as in our tl
dilemma.
We sympathize with the News in
its dilemma ; it is precisely where d
we were in our last issue. But what w
does our contemporary mean by the
following language:
Neighborhood meetings will take G
the truths of Democratic doctrine ii
home to people not reached by the o
press. The strong voice and famil
iar illustrations of the farmer stand
ing up in his shirt sleeves and talk- p
ing to his neighbors will carry firm o
conviction where no editorial of r
any newspaper would give an idea.
This is the most important political b
question now before the people of rl
the State. The masses ought to be u
tanght what Democracy really is, a
for it is the party of the masses. t,
Real Democracy can be restored and
the miserable bastard, sham Demo
cracy of the day can be banished d
only when the people are taught
the difference between them. While f<
our Democracy is a sham the Demo- v
cratic party is only fragile rottenness k
and has no hope for success in the r
country and no promise of continu
ed ascendency in the State. Let
us not hold our hands and do tl
nothing, esteemed contemporaries g
and fellow Democrats. We can't y
afford it. We must act or be de
stroyed. The fall .may be slow,
but it will be sure. When the ~
danger is palpable to all the world,
all action will be too late.
Passing strange ! The News has
lost its grip on Democracy, and
thinks the Democratic party will
fail on account of its fragility and
rottenness; it confesses its inability
to teach Democratic principles and
feels that the press cannot enlighten
the people. But it thinks that four
club meetings will throw a flood of
Democratic light upon the subject !
The people are to be taught "Demo
cratic (ha ! ha !) doctrine," by a
"farmer (ha ! ha !!) standing up in
his shirt (ha ! ha ! ha !!) sleeves !"
What on earth does the Neu's mean ?
"Standing up in his shirt (ha ! ha !!)
sleeves !" Our contemporary says
if the ladder is too short, we must
do the best we can with the ladder
we have. We dislike that kind of
logic. The small boy at a fire may
dance about with excitement and
delight, and yell until he is hoarse;
but he will not persuade anybody
that he is a first-rate fireman. Will
not our Greenville contemporary
revise its decision ?
Berkeley County juries acquit
prisoners even after they confess
their guilt. A few days ago a man
was tried for arson, and the jury,
composed of ten negroes and two
white men brought in a verdict of
not guilty. It is said :
Judge Cothran was evidently
impressed by the verdict. so much
so indeed that in receiving- it he
said : "Gentlemen of the jury, this
must be received as the true verdict
in this case. It is very seldom,
however. in crimes$ of this charaater
that such testimony can be adduced
upon the trial. In this case the
threats of this party were proven,
two witnesses unimpeached swore
positively that they saw him on the
premises by the fire he had lighted.
Upon two occasions, without solici
tation, without the inducement of
hope or the fear of punishment, he
confessed his guilt. I dont think
I have ever known of a case of ar
son tried where the party accused
was seen leaving the scene of his
crime by unimpeachable and uaim
peached witnesses. It is, however,
for the jury to believe or disbelieve
these witnesses and you have seen
fit to disbelieve them. Your ver
dict must be received as a tru yer
dit and I have nothing :aa: a say)
about it."
Turning to the prisom ra .51;
said: "Solomon Baik.y, t
ly for you in this case. you a, I
am disposed to think, into the hads t
of your peers. You are allowed
Ito go hence without delay."
