- LD 1W INN SNOR O. It. M EANS DAVIS, FAitor, Wcduc'dny Morning. October 6, 1871 The Union-Herald endeavors to o unterbalance the expected huzzas of the conservative press over the incarceration in the penitentiary of the Chester Senator, by remarking that the Judge, jury and solicitor who convicted him are all republi cans. While we congratulate the Court in its good work in this mat ter we cannot refrain from remark ing that from what we heard of his little transaction, the guilt of tho accused was so patent that he could not possibly, have been aQ quittod by any sort of a jury. The disgrace entailed upon the radical party by the conviction of a State Senator cannot be removed by the acti'm of the Court in the premises. We don't think a conservative Sena for would have given a conservative jury the opportunity of passing upo-i his guilt or innocence. The Massachusetts republicans have nominated Rice for Governor. Charles Francis Adams received 261 votes, about half of the required majority. Mr. Adams is the most, t lkl about man in the United States. Every one thinks him a splendid man to fill any place from the residency down, but he never ro oives a nomination. We are glad he was defeated in the conven tion, as lie would have made a mag nifiecnt loader to rally the dis gruntled pilgrims. Rice is said to be a more wire puller, and an in forior man. His norhination causes an improvement in Gov. Gaston's chancos for re-election. The pro hibitionists some time since re solved not to support either Rice or Loring if nominated. Chances fvvor the election of Gaston unless the carpet-baggers all return home to vote. They are needed in Mae s-chusetts much more than in the South. The News cfi Courier takes other papers to task for carping at the reward offered by Gov. Chamberlain for the arrest of the Crows murder ers. It shows tht the reward is drI'ered subject to the action of the Legislature, and will therefore not bo paid. Now in the first !place the carping arises bcatise Gov. Cham berlain offers a reward in this case~ after having refused in others of ai similar nature. In the second place the governor should not offer a re ward unless he feels sue it will be paid. State credit is low enough already. In tile third place, the rowar-d will be paid, because a radi. cal wvill claim it. It ofrers a good chance for a divide, and these chances are not frequent nowadays. In the fourth place it is just as probable that Gov. Chamberlain had Crews assassinated because suell men as he are ruining the party and ruining the Governor's reputatior as a reformer, as that the conserva. fives caused the assassination, WVhy do the conservativ'es want sueh' men as Crews taken ofrf? He wa; of groat use to them. Such men a; he have elected twenty-five demo cratic governors and twenty-foni democratic legislatures. The cannot be spared until after 1876 In the flifth placeit is not necessar to hire parties to kill radicals. Th4 wvholo party is killing itself as fas as it can. All we conservatives hav to do is to wait quietly until th groat master of theoradicals calls then to himself, and then we will onto: mn and take possession of the nation The assassination of Crews was plot on the part of reform republi cans to rid themselves of an inenbus The murderers should be punished We have a suspicion that th, above is rather rambling, but iti true nevertheless. TIho Greenville NTcws in an artici on the Solomon Bank has this to sa~ We shall anxdously awai6 the proo promised. "Now, for the purpose of showing that Chamberlain and Cardoza ar< as oni in this matter, and that the; breach is fatal botweoen them anc Solomon and Dumm, we shall provt EArst, that at the time those do ositi were increased, Mr. Chaynborair had a writtmn umenorandum, show ing what the condition of the bant was ; second, that he, and not M~r Dunn, made the-motion to increast these 4oe ite~ t ad third, that the bank failed only n e-omsequen&e of he avot3 of $ m..s:la ii ad Card za. The first statement i' to be provedjiy Mr. Solomon, who fut nif)ietdm with the written memor refprred to, showing the ~oO d ton of the bank ; the stato #t ae to who made the motion, is. to bdroved by Mr. Dunn, and by the records of The fnancial board ; ad the third statement is to be proved by the statement of how the bank was broken, which we will shortly publish. The facts are con clUsive. It follows from this that wbdlo Cardoza was the active agent, the failures of Chamberlain to speak when the issue came up fixes him firmly as the associate of Cardoza in the work which was done, (not with the same motive however) and fixes him as the enemy of Dunn for the reason that he has failed to do him justice and permitted the charge of Cardoza that the motion was made by Dunn to pass unanswered. While Gov. Chamberlain might with propriety have permitted the at tacks on himself to pass unanswered he could not adopt the same course, when another was charged with the commission of the act of which he was the promoter." OUR POLI0Y. Our article on the policy of the conservatives next year has been warmly commented upon. The News & Courier endorses it as fore shadowing the proper course to be pursued. The Greenville News, of course, opposes it, for our lively con temporary, looking around it in the Piedmont region, and seeing a large democratic majority in its vicinage, wishes to make a straight out fight over the whole State. The Colum bia Regiater believes organization proper, but does not give it ;elf un reservedly to the straight out po'icy. The Pickens Sentinel declares for war. The Abbeville Medium favors organization, but calls very properly for a new deal of loaders. The An dorson Intelligencer thinks coopera tion may be necessary. The Aiken Courier-.Journal thinks the experi ment of a compromise very danger oiis. But the Lancaster Ledger is of all our exchanges, the most ultra. The editor has voted his last time for a compromise. Ho wants a straight out fight next year. le does not even promise, as the Grcon ville News much more wisely does, to abide by the action of the consor vativoe party. . Now the papers that advocate the straight out policy content them selves with theargument that they will never consort with those who have ruined the State. They do not show how the colored voters may be in duced to vote the democratic ticket. In the face of repeated defeat, they seem to be willing once more to run tilt against a stone wall. They do not recognize the fact that the reform and the Greene campaigns camne nearest achieving success. Of course there is no conservative in the State who would not prefer to elect a straight conservative tiet, and if amy one wvill doemonstrate the feasibility of any such undertaking, he will hear no opposition. But the whites of South Carolina will not go to the polls unless there is a pros pet of winning, and this prosp~ect at pr'esent lies only in a cooperation wvith elements of the opposite p)arty. The time has not come yet for a straight out fight. Let us be con tent with securing a half loaf. We have had no board for a long time, and are too hungry to quarrel about the size of the slice. THE BANK MUDDLE. The contest between Treasurer Cardoza and Col. Dunn and Mr. Solomon is waxing warm. Words and threats having been exhausted the contestants come to figures. Under the influence of strong out side pressure Mr. Dunn has pub h ished an exhibit of the transact ions 3 of Solomon's Bank fro" January ' to July, The exhibit is damaging to~ the parties connected with the -bank. It is shown that from $75,000 to $105,000 were expended in redeeming stock. In other words -that the stockholders drew that -amount of deposits out of the bank, 3 and accounted for it by returning stock. This financial opecration is theomost original th'i has yet been evolved. It is usually the custom to seize the capital stock of any col lapsed bank to pay depositors. But in this case, depositors have been made to make good the bosos of tockholders. This is a fraud most monstrous, and should be severely punished. Again $80,000 have been expended in "Legislative expenses." What the nature of these expenditures was, is not divulged. It is said that bribing enters as an element. This Item bears fraud in its face. Another peculiar feature is that the assots do not balane the liaa.ite by.' large amioltl: Itg*'yp'grqaii not versed in the intricacies o balahde shet , that in every wel conduct'd ank the nominal value d the : assets 0should balance; l liabilities. So glaring are these frauds thel Treasurer Cardoza has addressed t letter to Attornpy-General Mefto asking him to take official cogni zance. For this the .teisure.h bas the thanks of the public. But while Cardoza apliars to be master of the situation in this poen. liar phase of the muddle, he also has some questionable transactions re. corded against him, Hardy Solomon says that while Noagle was Treasurer of Ricland County, Car doza approached him (Solomon) say ing that a settlement would lac domanded of Neagle, that Neagle (c make it would be compelled to sell State bonds at a sacrifice, that thesc bonds would rise in value, and that it would be a good :speculation op Solomon's part to buy them. Sol mon professed a want of money, when he was informed that a check on his bank would satisfy Cardoza, and- that the money would not be required immediately, and would be left on deposit. Solomon took the bonds, and Noagle received a full receipt on giving a check on the bank, which Cardoza passed as a deposit to the credit of the State. Solomon made $6,000 by this opera Lion and offered to divide with Car doza. Carcoza refused, but son time after offered to take Solomon's share in the Union-Iferald instead of the $3,000 and at the samo time increased the deposit in , the bank The offer was accepted. This it Solomon's story. Cardoza in a lot tor denies that he knew anything about Neagle's bonds until aftei the settlement, when Solomon in. formed him of the purchase. Sole. mon offered to divide profits provido Cardoza paid half the purchase money. This was accepted. Yci Cardoza says he refused in Januar) to accept his share of the profits Why this was we cannot imagin'o, at the bargain according to him had beer regularly nade. This has quito ar odor of spoilt fish about it. In April the transfer of the Union- lIar ald was made in lieu of the $3,000 Cardoza denies having promised no to draw on the bank. He meets the insinuation o Solomon that the deposits wort increased at the time of the transfei of the Union herald, by saying that he voted against the increase and it wouldbu absurd to insinuat< that lie had boon bribed to vote ai he did. Altogether the reveron< treasurer seems to 1)0 as deep ni the mud as Mr. Solomon. We be live that this bank matter will dam age a good many reputations, nonw too pure already, before it is finall; settled, AT LAST. At last we breathe more frealy Columbus Delano has resigned th< secretaryship of the interior, am his resignation has been accepte< by the pr'esident. Delano has booi an eyesore for months. The fraud in the Indian department at whici he winked proved his ruin. Hei of'orod up as another sacrifice to th< avenging furies. Time was, not lon; since, either, when an official coul; hold his office in spite of (liS coveries of his implication ii serious crimes. That was in tb halcyon days of the republic, whol~ every radical was a saint and ever Southern white man a devil. Bu of late, for someoroasons, radicals ar not reverenced so highly, nor ar Southmernors so detested and fearoc The change in public sentLimeon rondoers the retention in offieo s-ich mon as Delano impllossibb Whta lot of old p)arty hacks hav b)o0n laid asido. Colfax and Harlar the christian statesmen, Oal~ Ames the manipulator of Creo Mobi lier, Butler, Carpenter, Chain 1er, Williams, Poland and a hoest e: o',bners. And now at last, af to frantic appeals from tihe peoph( Delano steps down and out, and join the happy band of martyrs sacrifice, to the cause of reform. At thi welcome intelligence, Spotted Tai and Sitting Bull will rejoice, ant Young-man-afraid-.of-.his-horsoB wil execute a pas scul round the noctur nal camp fire, at the prospect of fat ter beof, and bread that does not rc quire braying in the mortar. Delam says he has been trying to resign fo a year but Grant would. not permi him to do-so. The president's con duct in face of the desire of Mr Delano and 6f 40,000,000 .othe peopleliuoludiksg Indians not' taxed is very strange.

DEFEOTS IN THE SOHOOL SYSTEM , THE UENE Y. Having shown in former issuos rome of the disadvantager under which the free schools are laboring in Fairfield, we will now present a few of the causes operating against them, showing that the bIlan rests not upon ,the pebplp nor the local officials, but upon . extrinsic . facts. We will also offer a few suggestions as to the remedy. The chief difficulty all along hs boon the uncertainty of pay,; and until it be definitely known -.e'ach year what will bo the amount. dis bursod, the schools cannot prosper. Competent teachers will not give their services to education without a certainty of dompensation. There are many persons to-day in Fairfield having a collegigto educa on. wYo would: gladly teach.if they were as sured of remunerati6nI . i As before said,' the county :.ias never r coin e ller full quota of tie State fund. Under the administra tion of Nile~s G. Parker very little school money ever reached the' coun ty. In 1878, under the now regime, the people took hope. . Thd county paper warmly advocated free educa tion, and the people generally ap proved it. That year, every district in the county except one, voted a handsome local tax for 1874, one district meeting coniposed.pf white conservativca . voting three mills. Ieliable trustees were. appointed, and they intorosted themselves- in their duties. Before the' schools were fairly under way the defalcation of the county trasu:'er cansnd eithei a total loss, or else a locking up in the 'court of almost the entire statt and local fund. Taxpayers becan disgusted ; and in consequence only three districts lovied a tax. Then to add to other embarrassments, the State apportionment was only $3,90( This was a heavy blow to the system The greatest economy had been prac ticel and yet a balance of certificate remained unpaid. Notwithstanding these fearful blows, the people of al classes favor the system. And this year there have been voted libera '.ocal taxes. Wo~Y must show another grievomu i bstacle in the way of sucess o schools in Fairfield. This is .th< , basis of apportionment of the State 'und. It was injurious enougl t< IFairficld when the basis was th< entire scholastic population, for, ii this county the number of childrer .is not proportioned to its wealth The sum raised has alwvays exceoder I the sum returned. But the methiot I of division according to school at Stndance is still more unjust. The loss in 1874 occurred before al the schools were opened. Thiu 4 made the attendanceoi much smallo than in other counties.-only 1,701 *hildren in a scholastic p~opulation o I ii,000. Then this loss of th:e loca - tax for 1874 prevented a levy fo: t 1875. While other counties' had am 3 abundanco Fairfield had .complarative ly nothing, and both the number o s chools and the length of their ses I 'ions were cut short. The trustee; o might have opened schools all eve 3 the county by recklossly incurring .debt, and thus swelled thme at t and t ance so as to 'receive a -large appot f. tionment for 1876. But they rc .fusod to doa this. In consetiuce e Fairfiold will probably. receive oni; ,a small percentage of 'Iir- twvo mil a tax, possibly sialler than that re t coived this year. Then if the trus - tees confine thems~elvos withii I bounds there will bo still. fowe: r schools andl still smaller attenidance , until in time the apportionment ma: m dwindle down to nothing. What il I the remedy ? To flood tim commt: a with unpalid certificates one year it I order' to obtain a large qumota the yea: I f llowing ? This would'lbe dishonest I And yet, tunder thio pr'eaetit systen it is thme onlyfway to pre~ent a tota - loss of the stato fund, EIt appears t< - us that thme proper plane would ba either to keep within ch county th< r money raised in it by the two mil L tax, or else to app)ortiou the schoo! - fund according to the number o. c hildren between the ages of f r' and 16. The theory of the systern is t educata each child in tha matt. ao alr9ady at school. If there are 6,000 children in Fair here should be a certain amount ap lpriated for e4 ones'There,: s;. ,gason for gi gon y to~the 7Od iwho may be in kttend4co on t o9 chools. The std is smgall nou ka4 ; y rate, and by the presen plai, only pro viding for childrei ib a&ehool, those who have -not wenjoyed-faoilitiesval ready may be (ebarred. Avin, ae 6he selJMl ye'ar begins in October and the apportionment is not nade until six uxonthl . 1,aLr there is always some doubt atd oh' amount that will be received. Now as population increases almost aui formly over the whole State, and as the rato of taxation and the amount of property romaine al most constant, each county, if the apportionment be made accordingsto the population, can reasonably esti mate the limit df its quot t. But the present basis is alvays fluctuating. The attendance in diforcnt counties varies each year. It is in the power of any county, by having a large nurm ber of scholars and running heavily, into debt to increase its attendance disproportionately. No estimato can be made with certainty, and is the fund is so small, requiring rigid economy, each county that mnanrges its schools .hoiestly , will run into debt. The argionent for the present system is that it stinulates attend ance. This is true ; but is it condu cive to honesty ? The preseint lnsis of apportionment is all wrong. We hope the amendment keeping in every county the money raisod by the two mill tx will bo p:ssed. Thou Fairliel'l will have a fund of $M,000 besides the local tax, and some good will enure t.) the people from the system.
