The persistent plea ol' the Inter-State
Commerce Commission lor legislation
hearing'on the ine,pmlities and dis
criminations practiced hy the railroads
against certain sections, und thc in
herent deafness of that body to such
appeals, recalls tho charges oft repeat
ed that "tho railroads own Congress
anyhow." lt would he quito a grace
ful net were the masters to assume
nominal control ut the earl ?eat practical
moment in order to relieve tho treas
ury of the expense (d' maintenance.
The passage by the Legi slat un^ of a
marriage, license law is in tho line of
mindi needed legislation for many
years. It is not a little surprising that
South Carolina has sn long bern with
out this very necessary method of ad
mitting to public record the marriage
of our citizens, so that in af 1er years if
proof he demanded of such marriage or
of the legitimacy of any citizen, il can
be secured from the proper custodian
of the records. A Stale who guards
so .sacredly the lite nf marriageagaiiisl
il i Voice should he as vigilant lo.ii un rd
it against secret contractions and such
oilier lax operations pregnant with
dornest ie irregularil ies and end h ss 111 i -
gal ?on.

W il li each dav il is becoming more
apparent that lr us*, s cannot be cll'eet
ively checkmated by negativ?1 legisla
tive enactment, so lonjas the turill' is
not reduced lo a revenue basis. The
trusts themselves seem lo entertain 110
fear that the States eau. through their
several Legislature's, .seriously handl
ea], their operations. Thc recklessness
with which trusts have been promoted,
despite public protest, the enactment
of drastic anti-trust laws and adverse
supreme court decisions, must have
forced thoughtful people to the con
clusion that where all these agencies
fail there is somewhere and in some
thing a harbor of refuge for the trusts
that neither publie indignation, Legis
latures nor Court decisions have been
able to invade.

The Hill appropriating $100,000, in
three annual levies, for the completion
of the State House was considered un
der a special order of business at last
night's session. At the hour of going
to press, we have no word as to the re
sult of the measure, but presumed that
it passed without material change, iu
asmuch as the present budy has given
renewed evidences of progressive spirit
and praiseworthy State pride. It is
the State's misfortune that she has
heretofore been unable to complete the
magnificent structure ami was forced
to make a contraction from the original
plans to effect a temporary completion:
but now that her finances are in some
what better condition, and inasmuch as
capital is looking thia way, (a country's
public building being the barometer of
her public spirit ?ind enterprise.) it is
very titting that we should dross up in
honor of that cap? irions young maiden
and henil every energy to captivate her
constant heart.
Strong pressure i- being brought to
bear upon Col. Hryaii to induce him to
accept an entirely m w issue for the
coming campaign inasmuch as the
silver question basso seriously divided
the Democratic party, and. as is urged,
the parly can easily harmonize on the
question of imperialism and put tho
Republicans on the defensive from the
first, lt is doubtful, however, if Col.
Bryan is in his proper ?dement outside
the free silver struggle, for her?* his re
cord is clean and unassailable, but it is
j,ninted out that on a platform con
demning the war and its eaus?'s. Col.
Bryan will himself lu; on the defensive
because of his advocacy of the ratifica
tion of the Taris Peace Treaty, to
which influence, it is alleged, the sue
?.?.ss of th?'treaty in the Senat?' was
?lue.au?'. that lu- as a result was th?; ?11
direct cause of the war. His record ?in
imperialism certainly cannot be said to
be impregnable, and if th" party is
.'hell-bent" on nominating him. it
should bestir itself to get a platform to
lit him. and not hazard Democratic
success by going In d'or?; the people on
issues honeycombed with fawning and
apologetic explanations. While Brynn
made n brilliant campaign four years
?\?o, thc history ?d' ii witt bc remem
bered as a losing, so that the shadow
defeat, which rests so heavily upon
him, would exert such a tremendous
adverse influence in another election
that, from the present point of view,
his candidacy can only be viewed ns a
distinct burilen on the party which if
pushed to successful nomination in the
convention must inevitably end in
ignominious defeat, if tho party's
stnndar?l bearer must go down under
thc battit; of the ballots, let him be a
true representative of the party, free
fijon? populist ic taint; such defeat will
bp more welcome than inglorious vic
tory with straddlers, 1'usiouists, anti
the disailocted sore toes and sore heads
as rival and jealous n?lieB.

The I'oinmemlable concern displayed
by tho Legislature for ?rood roads in
South Carolina is the best indication
of good, old time, hard, common, horse
sens?' in that representative body of
Carolinians. Thc passage of tho Poll
to give the preference in the hiring of
convicts to Counties for the building
of permanent public roads nt ?lx,Q(K) a
year is a seven-league stride, und any
County that is solicitous for its own
welfare need not hesitate now to equip
itself with first-class highways on ac
count of the expenso. While the
scheme will be a paying one to the
State, it will also save the Counties
much needless expense and greatly
facilitate the building of permanent
roads, by reason of the easy availabili
ty of labor. The other Hill, w hich has
passed the Senate, is the "broad-tiro"
hill, which proviiles for (he protection
of the State's property, the roads,
from mutilation by narrow buggy and
wagon lires, by prohibiting thc sale of
naiiow tired vehicle-, in this Stale af
ter, la n na rv li rsl next. We are grnti- |
lied l<> note that the measure w.t.-. sup

from Ihr banner Cuiititj ol' Hie State

the right side.
The scathing arraignment by Bopre
sriitalive Wicha]dsnn, of Tennessee, of
Secretary (Sage's very questionable
connection with the National City
Hank, of New York, is a credit to the
brilliantTemiesseean. His open, bold
and fearless expose of the. tisby trans
action by which the favored govern
ment bank got the money while the
government got the "cahoots"' was
ably planned and admirably executed.
He showed that from tho sale of the
New York Custom J louse to the Na
tional City Hank, $?,215,000 of tho pur
chase price was paid to the govern
ment, which amount was deposited
with tho same Hank free of interest,
leaving only ??iCiO,(MK) unpaid in order to
prevent tho title from passing to evade
taxation. The Hank, it is stated,
loaned this deposit at enormous inter
est, which was its own business, but it
remains that the government received
not one cent of advantage from it,
nothing from the entire transaction in
fact but the privilege of paying $i:Ul,
ooo per annum rent on the property
sold and the satisfying of the hand
some contribution to the McKinley
campaign fund in 1S9l> which the Na
tional City Hank is reported to have
made. This last phase of the scandal
is by no means new, as the administra
tion from its inception luis been but a
succession of political debt-paying, so
that no revelation alongthis line could
be very startling. However, it is not
the creal ute who is at fault, but the
creator. The people demand political
ringsters to administer their tintinees,
and what they demand they always
get.
