JAS. A. HOTT, ) _ .... E. B. MURRAY, j1*1""? THURSDAY MORNING, NOV. 18th, 1875. The State Press Association. A meeting of the Executive Committee of the South Carolina Stale Press Asso? ciation will be held at the Columbia Ho? tel, Columbia, on Wednesday, the 24th inst., at 10 o'clock a. m. The Executive Committee will then consider and act upon applications for membership, which, (with the annual fee of five dol? lars,) should be forwarded at onoe to the President, Col. James A. Hoyt, at An? derson. Other important business will be taken up. It is hoped that the editors and proprietors of newspapers in South Carolina, who are not already members, will take advantage of the meeting of the 'Executive Committee, and send in their applications. The Association will be useful and respected in proportion as the membership is large and general, and we hope that the roll will be considera? bly enlarged before the Centennial Meet? ing. State Tax Union. We are in receipt of a communication from Dr. W. C. Brown, President of the County Tax Union, in which be says: "I think your conclusion in reference to the delegates appointed last year repre? senting the County this year in the an? nual meeting of the State Tax Union emi? nently proper, as it could not be possible to have a lull meeting of the County Tax Union in time to make the appointments. ? * ? I cannot over estimate the im? portance to our State of a thorough re? organization of all tax-payers and honest men, against dishonesty, official extrav? agance and oppressive taxation." The views of Dr. Brown wiU doubtless con? trol the action of the delegates from An? derson County, albeit there has been no official announcement as yet on this: point of representation from the Presi? dent of the State Tax Uniou. The full, representation is as follows: Messrs. M, C. Parker, J. S. Murray and John B. Sitton, delegates; Messrs. G. W. Cox, It. F. Whitner and J. A. Hoyt, alter? nates. Legislative Reform. Senator Cochran, of Anderson, lias writ? ten a letter to several members of the Gen? ual Assembly, urging certain measures of legislative and constitutional reform, em? bracing a variety of prohibitory measures an a restraint more than aught else upon the legislation of the State. Among the more prominent ideas suggested for amendment ? to the constitution may be mentioned the constitutional enactment of restraint upon any further increase of the public debt; re? stricting the powers of the legislature in levying taxes and making appropriations; making the legislative sessions biennial; providing that convict labor shall be utilize.\ on all public works, State and County, guarded by such laws as will secure humane treatment ^ fixing the legal rate of interest at seven per cent., and requiring the Legis? lature to pass such laws as will in general prevent the collection of a larger amount. These are only a few of :ho numerous measures proposed by Senator Cochran as amendments to the State Constitution, in order to secure legislative reform, which he rightly deems a matter of great consequence to the State. All that he proposes will not be done, as a matter of course, nor do we perceive that all is necessary, provided the General Assembly was composed of decent and capable members altogether. It is a strange commentary upon the queer times in which we live, that it is proposed to in atrgurate restrictive and prohibitory meas? ures of an unusual character, and incorpo? rate them into the organic law of the land, in order to restrain the very men who are asked to initiate the measures themselves. Should the views of Senator Cochran meet with sufficient strength among his po? litical associates, which is necessary just now to make them a success, most of the imme? diate relief to the people can be granted at once, for on these members will depend nn merous questions of reform the coming win? ter's session, and if they are disposed to mark out such a wide and general constitu? tional reform, we cannot see how they will ignore the immediate establishment of legis? lative reform, m less upon the hypothesis that promises for the future are essentially more important to them than positive and ta equivocal action in the present. For in? stance, the Legislature will have an excel? lent opportunity of displaying its honest intentions, when the Governor smds in the veto message upon the tax bill, and we v'ould rather Witness an earnest effort to begin' With practical measures of stem and immediate'consequence to the masses than ah indulgence irr gtittering promises for the future. Senator Cochran's letter will appear in full next week, and we regret that the crowd? ed state of our columns will not permit its publication at once. The Next President The) recent elections, it must be admit? ted, have resulted decidedly adversely to the Democratic party, showing conclu? sively that there has been another of those blunders which has marked the disastrous management of the party for tb? last fifteen years. The misfortune, however, is by no means as great as was at first supposed, and the party is left in a poidtion where it is likely to be more prudent and wary than.it would 'iavo been bad' an overwhelming victory perched upon its standard this year. The disastrous result of the unnecessary and uncalled-for financial issue will doubtless teach the Democrats to let new issues alone, and devote themselves to a square fight with the Republican party upon its flagrant misrule and corruption. A simple -.battle of honesty against cor? ruption will, if vigorously fought, regain all that has been lost and bring the long wished-for revolutions in the parties of the United States. The coming election will, however, be a close one, and noth? ing but the' uttermost oaution and pru? dence can win. Several slates of the votes have beoi arranged, and all agree in giving the Democrats a small majority in the vote for the next presidency. The New York Sun figures up by giving every doubtful State to the Republicans as follows: DEMOCRATIC STATBS. | Alabama, : : : 10 Arkansas,: : : 6 California, : : : 6 Connecticut, : : 6 Delaware, : : : 3 Florida, : : : 4 Georgia, : : : U Indiana, : : : 15 Kentucky, : : : 12 Maryland, : 8 MissL'siopi, : : ? : 8l Missouri, : : : 15INew Hampshire : 5 KKl'lfBLICAX STATES. Illinois, : : : 21 Iowa, : 11 Kansas, : : 5 Louisiana, ; ; 8 Maine,: : : : 7 Massichusotts, ' : 13 Michigan, : : : 11 Minnesota, : : 5 Nebraska, : : : 3 Nevada, 3 New Jersey, : 9 New York, : : 25 North Carolina, : 10 Tennessee, : : 12 Texas, : : : 8 Virginia, : : : 11 W.Virginia, : :? 5 Ohio, : : : : 22 Oregon, : : : S Pennsylvania, : : 29 Rhode Island, : 4 South Carolina, : : 7 Venaont,: : : 8 ?j Wisconsin, : : 10 Total : : : 185 ? I Total, : : 18! Among the States cited as Republican, Wisconsin will almost certainly be Dem? ocratic, while Louisiana, New Jersey, New Hampshire and Ohio will be very close, with'the possibility of one or more of them going for the Democrats. It may be regarded as a certainty that Grant cannot be re-elected, and if be is nominated the Democrats, with an ordi? nary good candidate, are sure to win. It is generally conceded that each party will have to resort to new candidates, and the party which makes the best se? lection will have superior advantages in the race. Thurman or Hendricks- are now most prominent on the Democratic side, and either upon a proper platform would arouse much enthusiasm, and in all probability win the race. Editorial Notes. The severest earthquake ever felt in KnoxviUe occurred at 2 o'clock in the morning of the 12th inst. The rumbling came from Wast to East, lasting ten sec? onds, and making a noise like an explo? sion. The elements seem to indicate that jhiB country needs a shaking up.. Bishop Cummings, of the Reformed Episcopal Church, is announced to be in Charleston this week. He designs spend? ing the winter months in the South for the health of his family, and while here will devote himself to furthering the ad? vancement of his church in this section. Dispatches from the West have been inti? mating that Orville Grant, the President's brother, Casey, his brother-in-law, General Babcock, the President's private secretary, and others, have been presented to the Grand Jury of the TTnited States District Court of Missouri for being. complicated in the whiskey frauds. Such instances of cor? ruption as this, if it be established, are the best weapons with which to fight the Re? publicans. The Grand Jury of Edgefield recom? mend that ex-county commissioner, Sam'l J. Lee, (ex-colored Speaker of the House of Representatives) be indicted for issuing cheeks to parties for building bridges in the county whore there are neither bridges nor contractors, and thoy present the Sheriff, Clerk of Court and Probate Judge for incompetoncy. Ex Governor M. L. Bonham, referee to con idor the validity of claims against the county, reports more than five hundred claims proven. An instance of tho man? ner in which the County has been de? frauded is given in the case of an iron safe for which the commissioners paid $1,100 and afterwards hold for $100.? Somebody ought to bo punished for such outrageous malfeasance. It is stated that a night operator, for the purchase of stolen cotton, recently left Lancaster and movol across the line in? to Kershaw county.* The farmers in the vicinity complained to Judge Mackey and he advised them to go in a body to his store and tell him in a very positive manner that he must stop his nefarious business. If ho did not stop, to pay a second visit and proceed at once to de? molishing his store. This is rather Strange advice for a Judge to give, as it amounts to telling the people to take the law into their own hands, or in other words to resort to mob law. There should be legislation to prevent tho prev? alence of this practice whereby the far? mers of certain counties have lost so heavily. The Grand Jury at tho recent term of Court for Georgetown found ten indict? ments against James M. Lesesne, (color? ed,) Henry Joy and R. Q. Bush, tho for? mer County Commissioners, for malfea? sance in office. They plead guilty to all of them. The Jury also found eight indict? ments against the present Commis? sioners, J. Harvey Jones, Joseph Bush and C. Rutledge, for official mis-conduct. This Announcement Is sufficient indica? tion that this county has been governed according to the most approved method of Republicanism. True bills for riot were also fo und against Senator W. H. Jones, (colored,) and fifteen others, for the riot which they instituted and fomeuted in Georgetown last August one year ago.' It is not, however, thought they can be convicted in conse? quence of the composition of the petit juries. Eli G. Crimes, the witness for the State against Bowen for the murder of Col. White, was indicted for having murdered a colored man during the war. No testimony was adduced to justify a presentment, so the Grand Jury found "No BiU." There has been quite an animated con? troversy over the propriety of South Car? olina participating in the coming Na? tional Centennial Celebration. We can see no good reason why this State, which was conspicuous in deeds of valor and endurance through the whole of the mighty struggle for our nationality, should not take her place in the constel? lation of tbo original thirteen States where she once shone brightest. The fact that we have been rent by sectional strife, that we have been over-powered in the battle for what we conceived to be our liberties, that we have been oppress? ed by tyranny and usurpation, should not deter South Carolina, even in her ruin, from' presenting herself as a partici? pant in celebrating the great event for which much credit and glory has been accorded the Palmetto State in the chron? icles of our nation's birth and early de? velopment. If Carolina is a poor wreck of her former self it does not become her loyal sons to cower or succumb to the feelings of despair which the misfortunes of.the present prompt The next is our centennial year, and as Carolina valc rously engaged in the trying scenes which brought us independence and glory in 1776, so may she commingle in that grand national gathering which will, we hope, restore peace, harmony and prosperity to our languishing and dis? tracted land in 1876.
