THE MANNING TIMES.
WEDNESDAY, APRIL 28, 1886.
B. S. DINKINS, -ditor.
Capt. R. B, Tillman- has announced
through the N"ews and Courier, that
the Farmers' Convention will meet in
the Agricultural Hall at Columbia, on
Thursday next, the 29th. He gives
as his reason for the announcement,
"that there may be no misunderstand
ing."
The Presbytery of Augusta have
exhonorated]D Woodrow from the
charges in COL 4on with evolution,
and in addition have elected him a
delegate to the General Assembly
which meets in Augusta in May.
A grave subject now before the peo
ple and Congress is how to deal with
the labor strikes. By some means
the perplexed problem must be solv
ed or the strikes now confined to the
North and North-west will extend
through the whole land, and invading
all occupations, sap the foundation of
the Government. The importance of
tho question deserves the highest con
sideration of the wisest in the coun
try. The demand of the millions,
composing the laboring class, cannot
with safety be disregarded. Whether
the grievances they complain of be
real or imaginary, there should be a
tribunal clothed with power to invest
igate and administer to the exigences
of the case. While carefully guard
ing the rights of the laborers, the per
petrators of outrages like those recent
ly committed in St. Louis and other
places, should be severely punished.
Organitions like the Knights of La
bor, and we may add, large raih-oad
corporations should not exist without
a power competent to supervise and
control their actions.
Congress has taken the matter in
hand and appointed a committee to
examine representatives of each of the
warring factions as to the cause of the
trouble. Lengthy interviews have been
held with Gould, the great iailroad
Crcesus, and Powderly, the Mogul of
the Knights. The President in a mes
sage to Congress called attention to
this momentous question, and recom
mends a commission of Labor, com
posed of three members, as the best
means of adjusting the difficulties. In
one part of the message he says:
The present condition of relations be
tween labor and capital are far from
saisfatory. The discontent of the
employed is due in a large degree to
the grasping and heedless exactions
of employers, and alleged discrimina
tion in favor of capital as an object of
governmental attention. It must al
so be conceded that laboring men are
not always careful to avoid causeless
and unjustifiable disturbance. Though
jAe importance of better accord be
tween these interests is apparant, it
must be borne in mind that any effort
in that direction by the Federal Gov
ernment must be greatly limited by
-cnstitadional restrictions. There arej
many grievances which legislation by
Congress cannot redress, and many
-conditions which cannot by such
mans be reformed.
I am satisfied, however, that some
-thing may be done, under Federal
authority, to prevent disturbances
which so often arise from disputes be
:tween employers and employed, and
which at times seriously threaten the
busines interests of the country; and
in my opinion the proper theory up
-on which to proceed is that of volun
lary arbitration as a means of settling
-these difficulties. But I suggest that
'instead of arbitrators chosen in the
heat of conflicting claims, and after
-each dispute shall arise, there be cre
ated a commission of Labor, consist
ing of three members, who shall be
-regular officers of the Government,
charged, among other duties, with the
consideration and -settlement, when
possible, of all- controversies between
labor and capital.
A commission thus organized would
have-the ad-vantage of being a stable
bedy, and its members, as, they gain
ed experience, would constantly imn
-prove in their ability to deal intelli
gently and usefully with questions
which might be submitted to them.
If arbitrators are chosen for tempora
, ry service, as each case of dispute
arises, experience and familiarity with
much that is involved in the qu'estion
will be lacking. Extreme partisan
ship and bias will be the qualifications
sought on either side, and frequent
eomnplaints of unfairness and partiali
ty will be inevitable. The imposition
upon the Federal Courts of duties,
foreign to the judicial function, s.uch
as the selection of an arbitrator in
such cases, is at least of doubtful pro
Thpret establishment by Federal -au-I
thority of such a bureau would be a
just and sensible recognition of the
value of labor, and of its right to be
represented in the departments of the
Government. So far as its concilia
tory offices had relation to disturban
ces which interfered with transit and
commerce between States,. its exist
ence would be justified, un'der the
provision of the Constitution which'
gives to Congress power "to regulate
eommerce with foreign nations and
among the several States," and in the
frequent disputes between laboring
men and their employers of less ex
tent and the consequenees of which
are confined within State limits and
tih-eaten domestic violence, the inter
positn of such a commission might
be tendered upon application of the
Legislature or the Executive of the
State under the constitutional provis
ion which recjuires the General Gov
er-nment to "protect" each of the'
States against domestic violence.
W.ASHINGITON C4RRESPONDENCE.
WEsmNG'oN, April 23, 1886.
Spring is in Washington now with I
all its glory. The leaves are out on
the trees, making the streets long vis
tas of color, and the gam. is b-;h+
with that charming tint which only
Spring can paint. The parks and
squares are gay with the yellow blos
sois of the Forsythia and the white
of the magnolia, while the cloudy
pink of the peach tree peers over gar
den walls. It is hard to tell what im
presses one most-the softness of the
climate, the fine avenues; some over
two miles long radiating from the
Capitol like the sticks of a fan, the
green circles and squares and trian
gles that greet you unexpectedly in
every direction, the magnificence of
the public buildings, or the cosy ele
egance of the private residences.
It is not to be wondered at that un
der the seduction of a Washington
spring the President should "lightly
turn to thoughts of love." If an oyster
could fall in love atall, it would be on
one of these bright spring days in
Washington. Whether or not Mr.
Cleveland is to marry in the -near fu
ture, it is believed that he will, anl
the would-be-knowing-ones accuse
him of manifesting every matrimonial
symptom. He goes out more frequent
lv now than ever before, and those
who meet him on his afterlLoon drives
with his private Secretary, come to
the imaginative conclusion that he is
very happy and sentimental despite
the cares of State.
This is the time for drives and rides
and walks about the city, and every
body who can take time for it, is out
of doors. Members of the Cabinet,
Justices of the Supreme Court, Sena
tors, Representatives, and Depart
ment officials may be seen after four
o'clock P. M. on horse-back, on foot,
or in more or less elegant turnouts on
the streets and country roads around
the city, while the ladies who are
busy with spring shopping, throng
Pennsylvania avenue all day long.
Congress has come to a point in the
session where it is necessary to exer
cise pluck of principle. Various ap
propriation bills-for the aid of edu
cation, falsely so styled in some in
stances for new pensions, for river
and harbor improvements, for public
buildings, and, other enterprises for
expending the people's money, are
coming up for action. The Republi
can minority, feeling responsibility
neither for the House nor the Presi
dent, do not care if the record of the
session is conspicuous for extrava
gance, and a grave responsibility is
thus placed upon the Democrats in
Congress.
The River and Harbor bill is now
before the House and members are
working at it section by section
and voting away money in or
der to help each other carry doubtful
districts in the coming fall elections.
Each one of a dozen little unheard-of
rivers and bays, in many states, wants
an appropriation to dredge its chan
nel two feet deeper perhaps, so that
the one or two steamboats that plie
its waters, may not run aground.
Some of these demands upon the
Treasury vaults would be luiderous if
they were not so outrageously impu
dent. Their only excuse is the neces
sity of Congressmen to buy votes
with Government money, and their
only chance of passage is the average
.members' willingness to log-roll.
The Senate on Wednesday. passed
between four and five hundred pri
vate pension bills; the largest days
work that either branch of Congress
ever did. It also voted to erect a
fire proof hall in this city for keeping
records, and Senator Hoar wittily ask
ed before voting for it if it were spec
ially for the safe keeping for the Pres
ident's "private papers." The Senate
continues to debate in a rather Ian
guid way during a part of each day,
the subject of secret or no secret ses
sions.
The Attorney General as a witness
has infused new interest into the Pan
Electric investigation this week. He
gave a statement of his connection
with the affair, declaring thait he had
never used official position to advance
the interest of the scheme, that he had
had nothing whatever, to do wi'
the bringing of the Govt. suit that he
still retained his stock which was not
a gift, that instead of making, he had
lost $400 by Pan Electricity, but that
it was a perfectly slegitimate enter
prise for all that.
Much interest has also been taken
in the Strike investigation now in
progress here, owing to the fact that
Grand Master Workman Powderly
and Jay Gould among others, wcra
presert as witnesses.' An exceeding
ly interesting body of testimony was
given all around, but Mr. Powderlv
drew more attention than the rail road
king. He made a full presentation of
the case, and gave a full history of the
Knights' organization.
Too 3Iany School Books.
Abbeuiie Medium: A man is blind
if he cannot see many ways in which
the expense of our governmaent can be
reduced. There is no good reason
our taxes should be so heavy. We
have always believed in paying all of
ficials well and do not . hold to any
parsimonious views. At the same
time we believe the government could
be properly conducted at less expense.
But outside of specific taxes the great
est burden to our people is found in
the multitude of school books which
we are compelled to buy. The prices
too are unreasonably high but still the
razy idea prevails that we have to
keep up with the times and must of
necessity require great loads of!
books even for children who have not
advapced beyond the elementary
branches We cannot see any reason
in it. Who is to correct the evil, if
not those who have our educational
matters peculiarly in their charge?!
Has any State Superintendent of Ed
ueation ever recomebded a change for
the better ? Has any' State Board ev-j
er considered the matter? If so, who
is standing in the way of this re
trenchment ? The people are patient
but they are almost exhausted by thisj
continual drainage of their pocket
books. They are not able to stand!
the pressure much longer. Some re
the coming man who is to cure the
evil.
PRCTICAL SUGGESTION1.
Correywleue Xeirs and Coiurier:
The Farmers' Convention, soon to
assemble, will be composed, I trust
and believe, of the discreet and patri
otic citizens of the State who will
have in view only the welfare and
prosperity of the State, and not poli
tical preferment or advancement.
Such being the case I must hope that
great good will be accomplished.
There is certainly room for reform in
the State and this convention ia as
sist materially in bringing about this
reform.
As a taxpayer, I would call atten
tion to our county affairs, which it
would be well for the convention to
consider. Can there not be a more
economical administration of the
ounty government and a consequent
-eduction of taxation? Is a board of
county commissioners, with almost
unlimited power to tax, absolutely
necessary? Why do we hold on to
this systen, inaugurated by the Radi
cal Government. We-did not need
county commissioners before the war;
why cannot we abolish the office now
and substitute a less expensive sys
tem? The real truth is that the poli
ticians in our Legislature are afraid
to move in this matter, but surely a
body of farmers in convention assem
bled will not be timid, as they do not
ask for office at the hands of the peo
ple. Again, cannot the oficers of
county treasurer and county auditor
be performed by a county treasurer
alone with an assistant to receive re
turns?
The system of road working also
calls for change, and in a convention
of practical farmers I trust some val
uable suggestions will be made. The
present system is a farce, and results
in bad roads everywhere, but espec
ially in the low-country. How can it
be otherwise? The law requires that
the road hands shall be ordered out
to work not less than six nor more
than twelve days; but who is to carry
out and enforce the order? It is un
willing service on the part of all, and
the overseer who is not pid and has
no special interest in the work cannot
be expected to incur the displeasure
of every road hand by requiring him
to perform his duty or else to report
him and subject him.to the penalty of
the law. As a consequence no work
is done; the road hands when ordered
go on to the road to avoid the fine,
blaze a few pine trees, and the over
seer or superintendent after a few
days declares the work done, and the
hands are discharged for a year.
Now, as a practical planter myself,
I contend that road working is a tax.
When a man is ordered to work the
road you tax his time, which is a loss
to the laborer, and und'er present
management no benefit to the public.
If, then, there is to be taxation in or
der to keep up public roads why not
levy a tax in money only upon every
laborer who is liable to road duty?
From this money why not pay for the
work on the roads and let it be done
by contract, giving the contract to the
lowest bidder? It might be *so ar
ranged that a laborer who wished to
avoid paying his tax in money could
pay his tax in labor by hiring to the
road contractor and receive his due
bill for so much money receivable for
taxes. - The main and important point
is to place the road-working in the
hands of responsible parties, and this
can only de done by letting out the
work by contract to the lowest bid
der and to require a bond for the
faithful performance of the contract.
THE FARMiERS CONTENTION.
Palmetto Post: If the delegates to the
proposed Farmer's Convention are all
farmers de facto, and the doors of
that body are sternly closed in the
faces of the soreheads, shitepokes,
blatherskites, demagogues, cranks,
disappointed political market gard
ners, fag-ends of defunct political par
ties and the unavailable stumps cast
aside by past county conventions, we
have no fear that such a convention
would conceive, or, conceiving, adopt
any measure that would tend in any
nayv to embarrass the progress of our
State in its course on the high plane
of civilization it was placed by the
people in I876, but rather encourage
her in a more practicable carrying out
of the plans then laid out for her
progress and uplifting.
War Among Editors.
Our streets were thrown quite into
a state of excitement on the morning
of the 16th instant, by an encounter
between the editor of the Star anid the
senior editor of the Pre-s. The facts
related by several eye-witnesses are
as follows: On the morning of the
15th inst., one day after the issue of
the Press, at about half-past 7 o'clock
in the morning, as the senior editor
of the last named paper was on his
way to breakfast, and juist as he pass
ed the corner of the street on which
is situated the store of Messrs. Terry
& Shaffer, his attention was arrested
by someone hailing. Stopping to
listen, he heard footsteps approaching
from around the corner, and directly
the editor of the S/ar made his ap
pearance, each advanced toward the
ther, and when they got within
speaking distance the editor of t.he
Star inquired, "Are you responsible
for the article which appeared in the
ast week's Pre- ?" To which ques
ion the senior editor of the Press an
swered, "I am." Whereupon the edi
or of the ~Star struck him a blow on
he shoulder with his tist, which was
mmediately resented on the part of
he editor of the Pr-es's by a blow in
he face. The editor of the Star~ then
struck his opponent on the shoulder
ith his walking cane, which was re
sented by a blow in the face, as be
fore. Again did the editor of the
Star raise his cans, but before the
blow decended the Star'st editor rolled
on the ground, from which position
were now out of the question, and the
battle continued in regular fistieuff
style, and sparring came together,
and the representative of the Pres
was tripped. Both fell together, the
Star's editor failing on top, which vao
tage ground he immediately made
use of, striking two or three blows on
the face of his opponent with a lanrge
seal ring. At this juncture the
friends of the S'rar raised its editor up
and prevented the parties from agaiu
