SATURDAY, -SEPTEMBER 1, 1877.
The Ring Prosecutions.
The'Washington Republican, the'
central organ of tho Rrositfenl, 'has
suddenly grown very 'anxious 'con-,
corning tho prusccutilm of Oaivlozii,
Dunn, anil tho remainder -of the Co
lumbia ring. 'It says in 'ci'feet. that
tho premises'made to the -administra
tion at Washington during the w?
lb 1 days of *South Carolina's dual
??overnmeut,?nro not being carried ?
out, and that the faith there solemnly
?pledged is being sadly violated by'
?arresting anU holding fbr trial
our qvmndwii rulers. The AV,
jmblicon further asserts that the pro
secutions referred to were not hiVti
oiutcd for the purpose of bcncfitling
:therilntc, hut that thereby the in
'fluencc of the leaders of the Romibli
?can party might be destroyed.
^Not knowing the 'nature of -the!
rpledges or promises 'made to Hayes
?by^Governor Hampton's friend.-?, we
"are estopped from taking issue with
the Republican as to that feature of
this subject, but when our couLcinpo
?rary urges that the investigations
?out of which grew the prosecutions
?under-discussion, were set on foil for
?politicul purposes, it undertakes the
Assertion of a thing that ail men
fu miliar m ith Our-sit nation know to
'he false. The Republican objects ah
fBO to 'the Investigations upon (he
'ground that John R. Cochrau, "a
notorious lobbyist" is chairinn of'
the committee conducting them
This is another error. We have
?known .Senator Cochrau for a long
time, first,as member of the House of
K op res e n tative* and afterwards as
Senator, and this is the first intima
tion we ever had that he was other
than?a hard working and inle'ligent1
lcgisia'tcr.
But suppose al'l the Republican sa ys
has foundation in fact, iloes 'it go to
prove that robbers should not be
punished, or extenuate the grave:
?ciimes of Chanibcrlaiu and his asso
ciate thieves ?
According to the Journal of Com
merce the following are some of the
'offences committed by these nnn,
?'and for which bills were given to the
{grand jury in Columbia on Tuesday
dnst.
"The first charge was against F.
-Ii. Cardo/a, as State Treasurer, for
?violation of the act of December 22,
?1873, known as the Funding Act,
wherein certain State funds were di
verted from the uses to which th y
?had been specifically appropriated,
?and certain coupons funded contra
ry to law,-the same being a felony.
The second charge was against b\
IL. C'ard(?/.a and others for conspiracy
?to choat and defraud the State, in
funding ?coupons in possession of
Treasurer, to br; mis which had never
been issued. This was also iu vio'a
tion of the act already cited.
The third count involved a neglect
and refusal to perform the duties of
office and in receiving fraudulent
coupons lo conversion bonds, marked
in blue, amounting in the aggregate!
4o $00,000. A portion of thus i bonds
Iliad passed into the bauds of inno
cent holders, these were authorized
to bn issued, hut the rem linder wore
iiij'j !vl ' ? 1 ? ' and not
ISluLc tawiuiiy, and } et !j! ? JYc.a'sitr -
or funded them, as stated and contra
ry to law.
The fourth charge is against Miles
/t. Pni ker^ pn-Treasurer of ihp Slate,
and Y. J. P. Owens, for like con
spiracy, no set fourth nnd enumera
ted against Cardoza,
The fifih chnrgo is against Thomas
C. Dunn, as Comptroller, in conspi
ring, aiding and abetting tho forego
ing and in direct violation of law,
failing to.protect the interests of the
State as a public officer. Furthor
moro that ho unlawfully counter
signed the aforesaid, bonds which
wcro fraudulent knowing the same to
be so.
The Sixth charge is against T. C.
Dunn and others, for conspiracy to
cheat and defraud tho State iu the
matters set forth above.
The seventh charge is against Car;
dozo, as Treasurer, for issuing con
solidation bonds and stocks contrary
to law.
The eight charge is also against
Carddzo, for the payment of illoyal
claims against the State, and in vio
lation of the act of November o<),
1875.
The ninih charge i.- against T. 0.
Dunn, as Comptroller General, at
tho lime alluded to in issuing a
warrant in violation of the same act,
as Stated, and conspiracy and neglect
of duty in that instance in not pr:>
tccting the interest of the Stale as a
public ofliccr, as required by law."'
For tlic'commission of such crimes
as the foregoing the R?jmvlic'an would
have*no penalty to overtake the guil
ty culprits who are now without the
Stale, although it ?favors, or pretends
to fa"vor, the 'honest administration
of justice the country over. That
organ dubs the Columbia prosecu
tions "persecutions," and warns us
that the Administration has a sharp
eye on South Catoliiia. Now, if
Hayes is what he -seems, aud tlio lie
publican is what ic pretends to be,
the two will let us severely n'one?
leave us to ourselves to work out
our own salvation. The State has
been deeply and grossly wronged
hy Chamberlain and his partners iu
crime, nnd it is meet and proper
that her plunderers he dealt with ac
cording to law. The.so vultures
swooped down hero upon our pjo pie
after the war, look forcible possession
of the government, col I cote I the
taxes and kicked tip the mischief
generally, and now beeuus ? a i honest
performance of duty prompts the j
present administration to institute u |
judicial search into their miviiaiv; I
the )Vas/:iii'/fou \x pii'li. in mixes \
high again its old cry ot "Political
Persecutions at the South."
After Murtnh shipped K rot des and
employed Soleldo as ptlitical Kditcr,
a pleasing change came over the
President's Washington organ, and
wb regret lo note, the recent utteran
ces of that paper us indicating a re
turn of its former bitter hatred of the
entire South. But no matter what it
says ; ho matter how much it may
whine, and make defences for Cardo
/.a a lid his. crew, the people of South
Carolina are not going lo be bullied
into a forgcliulncss of the fact that
?they have been plundered, and that
it is their duty to pursue and punish
their pl?nderen.
If, as alleged, Democrats have
been mixed up with Republicans in
jobs against the State, the masses
will demand their indictment along
witli Chamberlain, cf ><l. And
we believe that Governor Hampton
will sanction this course also. If law
yers, merchants, or any others, have
been growing rich at the expense of
the tax-i tiyers. have shared plunder
with our dt spoilers, let the unerring
hand of justice throttle them at the
same lime it.grasps Republicans.
Wo are iu for lair play. If
a Democrat can sin with impunity
the country ought to know it, ami
Radical thieves should be turned out
upon their own recognizances. But
we do not share in any such delusion.
It may take time, but the day will
tome, if it is not already dawning,
when all Democrats who have col
luded with Republicans, high or low,
v. ' ' t'.i ? purposes of
'y.i'UIi.;.. ,, iv5.!t . ??*??- !
.count, and the condemnation of an
outraged people, fixed upon them.
.Democrats r,?ho have connived with
.Republicans to cover up fraud ami
shared in their plunder, tiifly imagine
that their political crecdf will save
them from investigation, (Jilt U3 surj
as there is any any justice aud truth in
the .sworn will of tho people, their
security is only fancied. T:ho cloak
which hides their guilt is filmy, and
even that will be s'rippod from them
if the people, tho tax payers who have
been persistently robbed For nearly .
ten years, arc not gagged aud cbok.d
to death.
'Hence, the Washington "Republican
is.premature in saying that llepubli
cans will be punished and Democrats
whitewashed.
'As we have already said, the pco
plc'nre satisfied that thc'yi'have been
outraged, and they will not rest until
their late oppressors, irrespective of
pelitics, arc arrested aud pun .bed.
And in the-near future, if our con
temporary will exercise 'a little pa
tience, those Democrats who have
been holding with tho hare and run
ning with I lie hounds, stealing \vith
the Radicals atel hurrah with the
Democrats, will occupy OaUistiuctive
kingdom of their own So let the
prosecutions go on. They are in-,
stinct with good for nil South Caro
lina1, By them we wilNjArn who to.
trust, by them we shall ascertain
how much money has been stolen'
froin ihe people, and who got it.

bumming about Washington for
weeks, and we venture the assertion
that the above Hing at 6nr much
joyed Governor emanated from one '
of their number, it was called forth
by tin- following extract from the
Journal >\f C nnut wee :
"We have on a Ibrnver Occasion
I indicjitetl our views of the direction
in which this invest "gation should he
turned and Ihe limits that may be
observed. The satisfaction 61 public
I . ....
g ssip. euridu siiy or ill will is not iU
j purpose. It is not to discover J what
1\ niocrats paid blackmail in the
passage of good and proper bills
through the corrupt legislatures. Jt
is not Jto bunt down every insignifi
cant or ' powerless and broken-down
Ucpubliean who has held ellicc and
been guilty of fraud and robbery,
with or without the forms of law.
The purpose, we judge, is something
highci?to expose- and destroy con
spicuous enemies or traitors?men
occupying positions of power and
able to inflict serious injuries in the
future on the people of this State?
? uch men as Chamberlain; Corbin
ui?i 1'allcrS?ii ami others, who have
betrayed the people to<niaku profit
with their enemies. Such men are
capable still of doing tu infinite mis
chief whenever e?j>porlunity arises in
? ho polities of the State und'of tho
United States.''
Kight here we desire to make a
prediction. And in this connection
it will be remembered that long before
Chamberlain ha\l served the first year
ol his term as Gu'veriror, the editor of
this paper warned the-people against
receiving as gospel his professions of
good will and Jove for our State. It
was stated in these columns that his
smooth phrases were uttered to de
ceive the u?Wary, and to gain for
himself, it possible, a second term as
governor !\ II. Chamberlain never
did cherish an honest sentiment of
attachment or feeling for the misfor
tunes of our people and State. Tho
embodiment of Mew England avarice
and a cunning which nurtures lofty
ambitions, he went deliberately to
lying in order that he might prolong
thereby bis unholy grip upon gubcr
?natorial power. Seeing and knowing
all this,.and despising and detesting
hypererites from the bottom of our
soul, we ventured the assertion long,
long ago. that those who applauded
Chatnhei lain, and urged the necessity
of his id -election, would one day eat
tin ir laudation.-of that eOid, clamy
vulture iu dirt. Not only here did
we warn the people against him, but
elsewhere* lit u scries of letters to
the Journal <</' Commerce hs fat"back
as July and August of last year, we
I i rged the straighlout movement.
Under date of Aug. 8, 1>*7G, in the
Journal i'-f Commerce in an appeal to
the 'Germans of "Cnn'rleslon, the fol
lowing language occurs in a part of
'the correspondence refcr/ed to :
"The Democrat's can 'elect their
Slate ticket 'if they will. They eini
oust Ciuiil!berlaiu and his politic t!
bu/.zards if they resolve to do it.
?And did ever people have greater
cause to incite'or lead them on than
we of South Caro'ina, who have been
excluded for a decade now from a 1
I "voice in the government of the State? ?{

I Ah ! is this not enough to make us!
work, eveVy mother's son of us, from '
now until next November for Hump "
ton? * * * Are all of our sister
Southern States to he free and South '
Carolina to continue in 'h'tiiu'iliation '
and despair ? Are Chamberlain's
ideas of society and moralities lo be
fattened upon us f?r all time to come?
Are brazen New England adventur
ers lo shape and fashion the future of
the home of Hampton, Of Hagootlj of
Connor and Mershaw ? God Al
mighty forbid it!"
Notwithstanding the efforts that
were being jnttdc in this county and
elsewhere for .Chamberlain's renotni
nation, we conti lined to persist in our
prophecy that when the Democrats
found him out as we knew him,
they would drop him iustaull y.
The events that have transpired .since'
Aug. '7(i, confirm ihe accuracy of our
prediction.
And now, a? we have previously
intimated, we intend to put ourselves
upon record in the prophet's line a
second time. But our game is higher
than Mas>'teliusctis' scum. We
proph esy as to llayej now.
There is but one morning paper
published iu Washington?but one
paper there that gets the crumbs
w hich tall from the President's table,
and that paper is the National R 711/6
licaH. It is the immediate hi outli
pieco of Hayes, and reflects his senti
ments. Until quite recently it
stoutly maintained that the investi
gations that havo been going on iu
Columbia, hail no political signifi
cance whatever, an 1 that Chamber
lain and those of his ilk, who had
robbed our treasury, deserve.! and
would receive no sympathy from
honest Kcpublicaus. But a chango
has como over tho spirit of its dream.
Tho Columbia prosecutions are now
called "a warfare against influcu'Jal
Republican leaders," and their pur
pose is "to force the resignation of
Senator Patterson." Iu like manner
the New York Times also howls
"persecution."
We predict, therefore, that Hayes
is weakening; that he has given the
wink to his organs; that ere long an
attempt will be made with the Presi
dent's consent to array the whole
North against the South; that he is
about'to Jail into the arms of Blaine,
Ben Wade and Morton, and will
repay the white people of the South
for praising him ao unmercifully for
having sinipiy performed his duty,
with a treachery as damnable as that
enacted by Chamberlain in the last
six months of his reign.
