The Homestead Law.
There is do question in which moro
interest is felt by our people than in
i that whether the homestead law is law
and will stand. Wo have been frequent
ly asked our opinion upon tho question
?ml have been 'requested to express it
through our columns.
"Without occupying space with apolo
gies for our inability and diffidonce to
discuss this important logal question, wo
will give It our consideration this week.
We contend that the Homestead ex
emption in n wise and beneficent pro
vision of law, sanctioned by a geuerous
humanity for the wives and children of
unfortunate or improvident husbands
aud fathers, and operating for the peace
and welfare of the people and the State
in preventing the multiplication of pau
pers, and the immigration of our citizens,
consequent upon the general aud indis
criminate sale of their homes, and com
ing in with peculiar benefit to our peo
ple in postponing tho payment of debts,
which the result of the war bad prevent
ed their paying, and the payment of
which, now at once, would take all, their
homes and all that the ravages of war
and defeat had left them.
We contend that while it confers such
vital and in.rinsic beucfit to the debtor
it does not defeat the rights of tho credi
tor, it only postpones the payment of his
claims, aud advances tho public good,
the weal of tho State, and "tho good of
the greatest number."
The Constitution of 18G8, was accept.
ed by the Congress of the United States,
as the basis upon which the State should
return to its right of representation in
the Union, as the fundamental law
of the State, and the declared will
of the people," under which they should
be restored to all the privileges of a
State. Now this Constitution, Article
2, Section 32, provides that,
'?The family homestead of the head of
each family residing in this State, such
homestead consisting nt dwelling house,
outbuildings, and lauds to the valuo of
$1000, shall be exempt from attachment,
levy or sale, under any mesne or fiual
prooee* issued from any court."
The Act of September 9th, 18G9, en
titled "An act to determine and perpet
uate the homestead," passed in obedieucc
to this provision of the Constitution, de
fines and settles this as the law until
overruled by the Supreme Court. The
Act of January 15th, 18G9, entitled,
"An act to punish Sheriffs and other
officers for violating tho homestead,"
clearly shows the will and determination
of the people to carry out and insist upon
the beneficial results of this law.
But while we contend for the wisdom
and beneficent results of this law, and
insist that it is tho law iu South Caroli
na, now, provided for in the Constitution
and enforced by these acts of the Legis
lature, still we do admit that there are
techuical, Constitutional objections that
may be urged against its perpetuation.
Judge Krakinc of Georgia in a late
decision involving the constitutionality
of this lav, aatd that his duty was clear
ly marked out that "if any of tho State
exemption laws are in conflict with the
Constitution of the Uuited States they
taust yield."
Indeed Article 0, of the Constitution
of the United States is clear upon this
point. It says, "This Constitution and
the laws of the Uuited States?
made in pursuance thereof &c.,
shall be the supreme law of the
land; end the judges in every State
?hall be bound thereby, anything in the
Constitution or laws of any State to the
contrary notwithstanding.
This language olearly points out the
duties of Judges and in obedienco to
their bath of office, they may well hesi
tate as to whether this law is not in con
faet with the clause of the Constitution
of the United States, whioh prohibits
any State "from passing any law impair
ing the obligations of contracts."
Judge Orr, in his able opiuion in the
case of Shelor vs. Mason, in Ooonoe
County, says that this objection to the
law is met by numerous authorities, re
cognising the right of State legislatures
to pane laws exempting property of a
debtor from levy and sale even for aute
oedent debts.
The learned Judge contends that these
exemptions >]n not thorny tb.? remedy
for onforcing cuiilruOts, but merely ?od?-1
fies it, without substantially imjHiiriHg I
its efficiency, and therefore do not coy
Hiet with the provision of the Constitu
tion of the United Stutos.' g
TIub was the opinion of Judge Douiu
of New York, and of^. Judge Putuian of J
Massachusetts, and wus the deeisiou of
the Supreme Court of Michigan.
The Supreme Court of Georgia, . has
decided in a recent caso, that the ex
emption of a hmne8tead of the value of
82000, authorized by the Constitution
of that State, from levy and sale, even
for antecedent debts, liens and judgments
is valid und does not impair the obliga
tion of contracts. Tho Supreme Court
of tho Uuited States has admitted that
"laws may be passed by tho State legis
latures exempting tools or hosehold
goods from levy or sale under existing
contracts."
Judge Orr argues that "if tho princi
ple is once admitted that property may
be exempted, the enactment is not un
constitutional which simpiy cularges the
amouut of property so exempt," and
"that the Homestead Exemption is as
constitutional as the old 'cow and bed*
law of this Stato."
Tho Statute of Limitations, the In
solvent Debtors Act, tho Act abolishing
imprisonment of debtors, all these aro
upon the samo principle of generous hu
manity to the debtor and for the good of
the Stuto aud all these are recognized
as constitutional ; then why should this
homestead exemption whose humane pro
vision will cheer aud bless thousands of
beggared families, and save the widows
and the little ones of our gallant aud
heroic dead from poverty, and crime,
why should this bo overruled and ren
dered null, uuder the plea of its uncon
stitutionally !
"All contracts arc made with a full
knowledge of the parties that the law
making power may modify the remedy."
Chief Justico Marshall said : ' With
out impairing tho obligation of the con
tract, the remedy may certainly be modi-1
ficd, as the wisdom of the nation shall
direct."
The wisdom and policy and weal of
the State certainly directs that this hu
mane provisiou should be carried out
and enforced.
Judge Orr, biso assumes tho position
that South Carolina was not under the
protection and governance of the Consti
tution of tho United States, at the time
of tho ratification of tho Constitution of
1868, and the Supreme, Court of tho
United States has decided that State
laws passed prior to 1798,?the date of
the ratification of the Constitution^?im
pairiug the obligation of Contracts, were
valid, as the Constitution prior to that
I time did not exercise any limit to State
I legislation.
No damage is done by this law to the
creditor. By the decision that this law is
constitutional, his mortgage is good, is
rccoguiscd but subject to the condition
that the defendant shall onjoy a home
stead, in accordance with the Constitu
tion and laws of this State. And this
modification of the creditors remedy is
for the good of the public, and the State,
in the cause of a high, and holy human-,
tty. I
It is a maxim of general acceptation,
Fiat jtutitea, mat roelum. "Let justico
be done though the heavens fall :" ut
when .Justice can be done in accordance
with the dictates of a humane mercy,
and for the well being of the community,
we say let it be done in this way.
In conclusion regarding this law at
wise and beneficial, we hope that the
technical objections to it will be over
ruled, and this Homestead Law will be
established, tttprenia lex.
Why Thky Don't Advertise.?It
is a matter of surprise to many that all
merchants do not advertise. Tho sup
position is that it they have goods for
sale, they want people to know it, and it
is a mystery why they neglect the best
means of spreading this information.
The Marion. Star, however, clears up
the mystery. It cays: "We can't con
scientiously commend tho stock of those
roerohanL who art sshsmod to advertise
them. Goods of cheap and inferior
quality aro not generally advertised.
The shrewd and successful business man,
who deals only in frtt cla$$ articles, is
very apt to let the public know it. A
merchant of this character always soils
the cheapest goods in tho end."
