THE INTELLIGENCER
LOCAL MATTERS.
OTTS KIW PBII8.
We print our issue of this week upon a
new and excellent Campbell Power Press,
which we have just received from the makers
in New York. It is something of a novelty
for this place, and has attracted crowds to
examine its mechanism and witness its
work. We are indebted to Messrs. Divver
& Burdgess, the experienced and practical
machinists of our Town, and to Mr. B. C.
DuPre, publisher of the Amciate Refornxrd
Presbyterian, at Due West, S. C, for valuable
assistance in putting this complicated ma?
chine together and preparing it for work.
BBIEF K2KTI0K.
We call the attention of our readers to the
following advertisements, which appear in
our issue of this week : Lewis it Co., Barr
& Fant, McGrath & Byrum, Wm. Leo ACo.
We are gratified to learn that Rev. Wm.
W. Mood has so far recovered from his re?
cent dangerous and protracted illness aa to
contemplate conducting services in the
Methodist Church on next Sabbath.
We were shown a boll of tho Cheatham
cotton from Mr. C. A. Reed's patch wind?
contained fourteen locks of beautiful cotton
and weighed three fourths of an ounce.
Twonty of theso bolls would weigh a pound.
We have received a copy of the Domestic
Fashion Gazette, published by C. A. Reed,
dealar in Dry Goods, Millinory, Ac, Ander?
son, S. C, for the month of October. It is
replete with the cuts of various articles of
ladie* apparel. ,
The gathering at the Providenco Camp
Ground on Sabbath last was a very largo
and orderly one. Rev. 0. A. Darby, Pre?
siding Elder, preached the eleven o'clock
sermon, and other interesting exercises were
had during the day. .
; TJEE TOWH WEIGHER.
The action of the Masters of Granges
upon this question lost Monday, a report of
which appears elsewherej was wise, discreet
and iii every respect commendable. The
election of Mr. J. 0. Keys ia a j udicious and
excellent choice, and gives general satisfac?
tion. Their jTction. upon the "subject of
damage by water shows that the position
taken by the IntelRger^sr upon this portion
of the subject is sustained by the farmers
themselves, and the rceoluliomi they adopted
show plainly that they approve of the action
of the Board of Trade.
Now that the whole difficulty in reference
to the Town Weigher Has been settled it
may not be amiss to show that the mer?
chants not only had justice and common
sonne, but that they also bod the law clearly,
on their side. This question as to the au?
thority of municipal corporations to require
all cotton sold within the corporate limits
to be weighed by a Town Weigher arose
several years ago in Columbia under an Or?
dinance of the city similar to the one passed
by our Council, and in a case between the
merchants and the city Judge Melton de?
cided the Ordinance to be illegal and void.
The same question also arose in Sumter in
1872, and was litigated in tho Supreme Court
under a charter much more comprehensive
and explicit than ours. The charters of
Sumter and Anderson are similar in giving
to the Town Council the right to pass all
such Ordinances as they may deem proi?er
relative to the "markets, jxtfice, quietude,
2>eacc, safety and good order of tho inhabitant?
of tho Town," and the charter of Sumter
gives that town an additional power not
contained in the charter of Anderson, which
is to establish public scales "for "weighing cot?
ton and other articles s>jtd by weight," and to
appoint one or more public weighers, also
pro -riding that where there is a difference as
to the weights of any article the certificate
of the public weigher shall be conclusive in
any Court, and requiring all other weights
in the town to conform to the standard fixed
by tho public scales. Therefore if the Town
of Sumter has no right to enforce an Ordi?
nance requiring the weighing of cotton by
the Public Weigher the Town of Anderson
certainly has none. Under the explicit pro?
visions of this charter conferring such
plenary powers upon the Town of Sumter
the Council passed the following Ordinance :
"That all persons bringing cotton, lint or
seed, (packed or unpacked) to this nmrket
for sale shall be required to have the same
weighed by the Public Weigher before such
sale is effected, and for every violation of
this section shall upon conviction before the
Town Council be subject to a fine of not less
than $10 and not more than $50 for each
offense." W. P. Deschamps violated this
Ofdinanco and wax fined $30 by the Council.
He refused to pay the line, on the gnmnd
that the Ordinance was ''repugnant to law,
to common right, restrictive of trade, con?
trary to public policy, unjust, unwise and
oppressive." The Council recovered judg?
ment against him before a Trial Justice and
he appealed to the Circuit Court, where the
judgment was reversed. The Council ap?
pealed from the Circuit decision on the
ground that the charter gave them the right
to pass the Ordinance; that they bad the
right under the common law, irrespective of
any power directly conferred by statute;
and that the Ordinance was not in restric?
tion, but merely in regulation, of trade.
In rendering the decision upon this case
the Supremo Court held: "If they bave the
rightto pass this section why may they not
extend it so an to include every pound of
sugar, coffee, tea, lard or any other article
sold by weight in the Town of Sumter ? It
cannot be that the legislature proposed any
such power, for it* exercise would then ope?
rate as a restraint, instead of a regulation, of
trade. What is there in the charter to show
that it must bo confined to the article of cot?
ton? A power fraught with such prejudi?
cial consequences to the trade of the Town
should not depend for its existence upon im?
plication unless it is plain and unavoidable.
*. * * We cannot see that the corpora?
tion had the right to pass the said section of
the said Ordinance, and the motion to re?
verse the judgment of the Circuit Court is
dismissed."
The Supreme Court in this decision were
unanimous, and the decision meets tho case
of the Town of Anderson Tery fully, and as
the decision was against the constitutional!
. tyofthe |K>sition assumed by the Council,
the Supremo Court of this State is the very
highest possible authority upon this point,
and therefore the positions assumed by tbo
Intelligencer with regard to this matter were
entirely correct, and would have prevailed
had the case gone into the Courts. We take
it for granted that no interference will ever
be made in this^rnatter by our future Coun?
cils, as they must sec that they have no such
authority a? that to which they have laid
claim.
THE CITY OF 0BEE5TILLE?
A day or two spent in the city of Groen
villo revealed to us tho rapid progress .and
substantial improvement of our neighbor,
whose prosperity is mainly due to the loca?
tion of the Air Line Railroad, and the un?
tiring energy of some of its citizens. We
had an impression that the growth of Green?
ville was only ..temporary, and would-be
checked when the excitement always attend?
ing such an event as opening a new railroad
I had died out. But an examination of the
i various and solid improvements yet under
I contract, and the elegant structures already
I completed, convinces us that well-directed
I energy and proper ballast will make its
present progress a thing of permanency.
Much that is now ephemeral will give way
to the substantial and desirable, when its
future progress will be finally assured. The
improvements made within the last two
years are not only handsome and in modern
style, but the splendid rasidences and ample
business-houses are occupied with a thrifty,
energetic and progressive people.
On Tuesday morning, we were tendered
an elegant phteton and a pair of horse* from
the livery stable of Messrs. Thompson &
Steele, formerly of Anderson, and wo went
around to the office of the Greenvillo Daily
Newt; for the purpose of securing the com?
pany of its staid and respectable editor, Col,
A. M. Speights, who has been puffing Green?
ville to such an extent that we thought him
the proper person to point out the noted
places. He accepted the invitation to ride,
and with us visited nearly even- portion of
the city. Tho new street leading to the Air
Lino Railroad, with its beautiful dwellings,
obtains much admiration from strangers,
and several business blocks now in course of
erection will increase its importance. Main
street is likewise improving, and many sub?
stantial buildings already deaot? the enter?
prising spirit of the people. The Cleveland
blocks, on either side of this street and op?
posite to each other, aro tho finest buildings
in the up-cour&ry, costing $27,000.
Our ride took in the Fair Grounds, situa?
ted on the outskirts of the .city, and enclos?
ing twelve or fourteen acres of land, with an
elegant race-track and suitable buildings for
the exhibition, which takes place this year
on the 20th of October and days following.
Hon. James P. Moor* is the President and
W. L. Mauldin, Esq., the Secretary of the
AWbcfcflPn. ' '
Among other points of interest, wo went
to the Camperdown Factory now being
erected under thu superintendence of Alex.
McBee, Esq., who Is driving ahead with his
accustomed vim. The bailding is located
on the east aide of the river, a short distance
below the ford on Main street, and will
furnish room for a large amount of ma?
chinery, where it is proposed to., manufac?
ture cloth exclusively, we were informed.
The factory erected last year by Sampson, \
Hall & Co., of Boston, is in active operation
boti. night and day, and these gentlemen
are the prime movers in the new establish?
ment, being well pleased with the previous
investment of their capital. The erection of
these factories marks an era in the progress
of the up-country, with the successful in?
vestment of Northern capital in cotton man?
ufacturing, and the importation of skilled
labor into our rnidut. Greenville is supplied
by nature with an excellent power to pro?
pel machinery, and we think much of its
importance in the future will be due to the
full development and utilization of this
wat?r-power.
Ourspacois too limited this morning to
go into the details of what we saw and heard
in Greenville, where every one talks up for
the city, and all seem united to advance its '
prosperity. The leading hotel is the Man?
sion House, which was lately remodeled
and greatly improved. Boarding-houses are
quite numerous, and among them the Mose
ley House is decidedly popular, and is well
kept by Col. G. F. Moseley, formerly of Lau?
ren*.
Newspaper business is both contracting
and expanding in Greenville. On Monday
last, Col. Speights bought oattho Republican,
and that jmper retires permanently from tho
field of journalism?unwept and unhonored.
Our friends, Messrs. J. C. A E. Bailey, of the
Enterprise and Mountaineer, are about to start
a newspaper for tho temperance organiza- j
tions in the State, and all persona connected
with the temperance reform ought to en?
courage this undertaking. These gentlemen
will make i. a success.

COTTON 8HIPMENT6.
During the month nf September last <>19
bales of cotton wore shipped from tho An?
derson depot against 628 bales for the same
month last year. Of this number, 31 were
weighed by Mr. E. B. Reese, the Town
Council's weigher, 12T? by Mr. J. B. McGee,
the merchants' weigher, and 49.'* by Mr. J.
Keys, the weigher upon whom both parties
agreed as a compromise. This is rather a
large number of bales to have been sold so
early when the price is so low.
COTTON WEIGHING.
Anderson C. H., Oct. 4, 1875.
At a meeting of the Masters of the various
Granges, in accordance with the request
from the Town Council and Board of Trade,
to consider certain questions in reference to
the Town Weigher of Anderson, twenty
three^Granges wore represented, and the
Board of Trade was represented by Messrs.
B. F. C'rayton and John B. Watson. Maj.
B. Whitner, who was elected Chairman,
briefly explained the object of the meeting,
and J. Willett Prevost was requested to act
as Secretary, after which Mr. Cray ton ex?
plained the differences between the Council
and Board of Trade.
Upon motion of It. W. Simpson, Esq., it
was resolved that the body act as individuals
and not as Masters of Granges. It was then
unanimously resolved that the meeting pro?
ceed to the election of a Cotton Weigher for
tho town of Anderson, who shall have pow?
er to make tho proper allowance or deduc?
tion for water in cotton. The olection re?
sulted in the selection of Mr. J. Crawford
Keys, who is to serve until the 31st day of
August next.
The following resolutions were offered by
It. W. Simpson, Esq., and 'adopted as the
sense of the meeting:
We, the Masters of a number of the
Granges of Anderson County, having met
at Anderson Court House, by request of
John R. Cochran, Esq., Intendant, and B. F.
Crayton, Esq., President of the Board of
Trade, of the town of Anderson, to designate
a Cotton Weigher for the stud Town, take
this opportunity for making the following
statements:
1st. The nature of the position we hold to
our Granges is entirely misunderstood when
it is supposed we can exercise the privileges
of our position outside of the legitimate
powers conferred by the Order.
2nd. That upon the 'matter submitted to
us ws acted as individual citizens of the
County of Anderson and not as Masters of
Granges.
3rd. Wo and the members of our Order
desire nothing more than to be permitted to
labor quietly and unmolested to advance
the moral and material prosperity of our
people?the farmers?and do not think we
can receive a very material aid in this direc?
tion, by having extended to ub the privilege
of selecting the Cotton Weigher for Ander?
son.
4th. Though not germano to the subject,
wo will state further, that, in our efforts to
advance our own profession, we are not neces?
sarily selfish?instead, we delight in the ad?
vancement of all trades and professions. To
our retail merchants we are not hostile, for
thoy have been our friends aud have assisted
us to carry on our business, without which
many of un would have suffered for the nec?
essaries of life. Again, we repeat we are not
opposed to the retail merchants, for their
calling is legitimate, and we are only opposed
to some of the evils which have crept into
tho mercantile world, outside of the retail
merchant, the principal of which our Order
has already peaceably rectified, and we be?
lieve the good sense of our merchants at
home will cause them voluntarily to rectify
all the small and minor evils, as already
they have proposed to do in transferring the
cost of weighing from the seller to the
purchaser.
5th. As Anderson Court House is not the
only cotton market in the world, we have
sufficient confidence in the business capacity
of the merchants of this town, to believe
they understand their business too well to
drive off trade by causing a dissatisfaction
among the farmers as to the weights or the
manner of weighing.
Gth. That in our opinion the election of a
cottou weigher for tho town of Anderson
belongs exclusively to the merchants of this
place, and the Town Council have no legal
or juat right to order the selection of such
weigher; and these views coincide with the
decision of the Supreme Court of this State.
A resolution of thanks to Anderson Divis?
ion, No. 1, Sons of Temperance, for loaning
the use of their hall was adopted, when,
iqon motion, tho meeting adjourned.
