CAMDEN, S. C., MARCH 20, 1878.
The Special Court.
Having been nominated by the Democratic
Caucus, Judges Thomson, Hudson
and Aldrich were on Thursday elected ,
by the Legislature Judges of the Special
Court to pass upon questions that
may arise in the settlement of the State
debt.
The Town Election.
The approaching election ror muni
cioal officers is iust now the absorbing
~ W " >
topic of conversation with all classes of,
cur citizens. It is. indeed, a subject of
the highest importance. Monday nest
will be an eventful day in the history
of Camden. It will then he declared
whether the good that has been accomplished
shall stand, and the good work
go on ; or whether the spirit of progress
and economy shall be checked, and the
government of the town given over to
the control of a single c!a*s of citizens.
Two tickets have been nominated for
Intendant and Wardens. With the
private character of the gentlemen composing
them we have nothing to do, and
of that we do not speak. We have
fricuds and patrons upon both tickets.
It is, then, only as the election of the
one ticket or the other will affect the
public interests that we take position in
opposition to or in favor of cither.
That the canvass is being conducted
with great activity and much feeling
by the friends of both tickets is apparent.
Why there should be the least
acrimony, is to some minds inexplicable.
It cannot be because the preseut
council has failed to discharge its duty.
Two of its members are candidates upon
each of the tickets, and it is admitted
that the council has done well. There
must be some other cause ; and we think
Ave are not J'ar wrong when we express
the opinion that it is because the pr?sent
council lias performed its duty. In I Inimportant
matter of the town currency,
they have r Midetcd services which place
the town under lasting obligation to
them. IJut in sifting this matter, they
have, without presuming to do more
than was expected ofthem.orof reflecting
inauywi^upon any person whatever,
incurred the enmity of soruc good citixeus.
The former Treasurer and II -ennb-r
of the town, who had held those officers
for a number of yearn, and who is n-iw
a candidate upon one of the tickets for
Warden, feels, we are informed, that
great injustice has been done him, and
ho now seeks vindication, foreooth, at
tbc hands of the citizens of Camden.
What did the Council do ?
Coming into office a year ag?, with
the tnost damaging report* in circulation
concerning their intcnti< lis, and
feeling that their every set woi.M be
scrutinized and the l.urslust construction
placed thereon, tloy naturally went
to work to ascertain ti e Condition < f the
town, end to establish u point from
which they could estimate tlic good or
evil resulting from their administration
?their object throughout being t-> go
shape their conduct as to withstand successfully
the fullest and freest criticism
And what did th^- do ? Auiong their
lirst acts was the appointment of a commission,
consisting of Wardens Kirk.ley
and Wall, and of Messrs. Donald
McQueen, W. L. Arthur and Win. D.
Tranthum, on the part of the citizens,
to ascertain the exact amount of town
currency in circulation. After great
trouble and much annoyance, such as
no one but those who did the work can
ever know, the (iommissL'ti. on the Gr.-t
Mondjy in June, submitted their report,
showing that tiny had instituted the
most thorough investigation, and that
the conclusion arrived at by them was
as nearly correct a> it was possible from
the data at their command. They found
that the amount of currency which
ought 'hen to have ben in circulation
was 85.202.'{it. differing i;i a tiifiing
amount fro in the report on the satiic
subject by ('.ipt. J. J>. Dunlap, a former
Intcndant of the town. fcjaoh was the
finding of tlie Commission, who perf
their duty with great rare. and i
with the expressed de.-ire to do lull and
exact ju-tieu t ? tlie subject and to ail
persons connect ?d therewiih. Whcthei |
or u >t tiiey failed in their duty, they
arc willing to stand upon their report.
The next step taken by the council (
in the matter of the currency was, toj
determine definitely the amount that
was in circulation ; and, to that end. j
they called in the old bills, and issued j
in lieu thereof new bills, which were j
numbered and signed by the intendunt
and recorder, 'i bis process vf retiring;
the old by issuing a new currency lias
been g"in_ on nearly a year, and with
what result ? Instead of finding that the
amount of currency in circulation was
95.2J12.HO?as the Commission reported
ought to have been out?they have actually
taken in and destroyed to dateMarch
2Gth, 1879?the bum of $8,277.00;
and there is. a considerable
mount of old bills still in circulation. !
9 ?mxmm?mmmmmmm? m\ M? wi? i i?icwr
It is estimated, then-run', that, in-'
stead of S"),292.30, there could net j
have been less than nine or ten thou-,
Sand dollats of town money up-ui the;
public when the present Council ?' re ;
inducted into office. For ctcry cent of
money issued, the records of the town i
should account. And they do so account
from April 20th, 18Gf>, when the first)
currency was issued, to April 10th,
1871, and from April 10th, 1870 to
the*present tnin\ It is only from 1871
to 1S7G, during which time one of the
gentlemen nominated for Warden upon
the ''Jmlrprnthnr ticket was treasurer
and recorder, that the hooks were not
properly kept. These are a lew of the
facts concerning the currency of the
town of Camden. If there is a glaring
discrepancy in the amount which ought
to he, and the amount which is actually
in circulation, it is a matter of regret,
and no fault of outs. We would not
wantonly wound tlic 1'eeiings oi, or uo
the slightest injustice to, any one. For
nearly a year we have remained comparatively
silent on this subject, for the
reason that, in our judgment, no good
was to he accomplished by agitating it.
Xow, however, our former treasurer and
recorder allows himself to b-? put for,
ward again for public office. In doing
tills he lays himself and the ticket
upon which he runs open to public
criticism ; and it becomes our imperative
duty to state fuels and figure?, oven
j though llicy prove that he is not the
j man fi>r the office which he *ecks. This
?
! much we have endeavored to Jo ; nothing
more. Wo believe that the inferj
Asts of Camden rc:juire that the Rollings
ticket should be elected.
If ihe former treasurer and recorJei
wishes to make any explanation of the
manner in which the above stated condi|
tion of affairs was brought aboitr, it will
give us pleasure to allow liim tiic use ol
our columns for that purpose.
