C., JULY 14, 1010. The Pie Counter. f Under the caption of "Doubtful Work," our esteemed Mulllns contemporary, The Messenger, takes issue with us in the matter of Federal appropriations for public improvements in the 6th. congressional dis unci. me neraia minus ine uis?: trict should take every dollar of t public money it can legitimately get. ! T*. Messenger says the policy is wrong and prophesies danger to the if Democratic party. The exchange of "courtesies" may r may not have somet ting to do with the question of Federal appro' pr*.%tloii8 for Iteutocratlc districts. There is no questioning the fact that the hails of Congress are pregnant with poiltlcs, and probably the congressman who is a past-master In the practice ^of the "ynu-tieklome" and "I'll tickle you" policy ? comes out at the big end of the hor. (n the matter of securing Federal aid for his district. Hut suppose the South Carolina o delegation should stand usidu with a haughty and imperious air every time the question of Federal aid f* for public improvements is raised in rt, the halls of congress and decline to ii consider any propositions from the "other side;" what would become 3 of Charleston, Georgetiwn, Beaufort, 3- Conway and other coast cities and towns that depend largely upon the VMHsmerce of the ocean for their existence? What would become of C( Che farmer who uses guano importer from Peru and kainit imported from ^ Germany? Is our contemporary so straight la t laced and hide-bound in its ideas c ?; party principles that it would ' c refuse aid from the government * while the jettys crumbled away and p Closed up the channel to Charleston cl harbor, or while the mud banks accumulated in Wynyah Bay and ** shut off ocean going steamships ^ from Georgetown, throwing thous.. ends of Deonle out of emnlovment it,' and paralyzing commerce in two tl of the moat Important sea-coast rtHowne in the state; starving the sea*" ports of South Carolina anil fatt! tenlng the sea-ports of North Carolina and Georgia by taking from 1 the one and giving to the other d the food of ocean commerce? i If such a policy were followed by k the South Carolina delegation and the sea-ports of the state were dosed to the commerce of the world the Increase in freight rates on imports and exports would impose upoi the honest farmer a greater burden than Is imposed upon the "ultimate consumer" by the ininmitous tariff law to which the eshgpmed editor of The Messenger is so~ strenuously opposed. * We do not believe that our liberal-minded and far seeing friend fcha ever looked at this side of jj the gnostlon, or lf he ha8 hiH yi8. \ Ml has been obscured by the nmallfjp appropriations for public huildhtps at Darlington, BennettsvHIc fend Florence. Certainly the chiasm of these towns eaunol object o the better and more convenient Ciiitles for receiving and trans^|lng mails which have been prored by the government, without cro t of oost to them. ^was Senator Tillman, we believe rho included In the appropriation]' | it At the Item which gave Charleston 5 appropriation of several hundred PS*3 Wv.'- v"4' w.' ^ ~ ??????????^p? "I" 1 '? thousand dollars for a magnificent navy yard, and if our memory serves us right it was Senator Tillman who advocated a duty on tea in order to "protect" an "Infant tea industry" near Chrlestoan, but it cannot be charged that Senator Tillman advocated the "polio of protection" in exchange for the big appropriation for the Charleston navy yard. Our good friend of The Messenger has very ably and intelligently represented the Oth. district in Congress and probably knows the "inside" and "outside" of legislation at the national capital better than we ever hope to know it,.and while we have the profoundest respect for \ % his knowledge of public affairs, still we must take issue with him when it comes to the question of securing Federal aid for public improvements. We have an eye on a public build itig Tuition. if Barnard Evans' story is denied manymore times he will begin to believe it himself. An exchange thai says fertilizers are going tip might have added that they have been going down long | enough. What about I lint meeting between the citizens and the railroad commit lee to'discuss the $ 111,out) railroad bond issue proposition? If any inisunderstanding exist it does st em tha a joint meeting would In lp all par ties to understand each other better. The Si ate newspaper lias laid down ??n I.ever because lie voted for a tariff on lumber, hut the State inui?t'a i.ever wiifii no asks for :i bet ley postoffice building at Columbia. Verily, llio man who doetli as la- pleases can't please even li is friends. When a congressman votes for a his district because the increased tariff on lumber he does not injure profit to the manufacturer just about offsets the additional cost of bnilding material to the builder, but when ho gels half a million dollars appropriation for his district lie makes his district juht that much richer. * The Messenger, of Mullins, edited by tlon. Jas. Norton, is strongly advocating the Torrens system of registering land There i? ?/? ing the efficiency of the Torrens system, but there will have to he a radical change In the personnel of the general assembly before South Carolina will have such a statute placed on its books.
