COOPEK IjI31KSTOXK INSTITUTE.
I .*?
We attended the commencement exercises
of this Institute on the 23rd
inst. It was in olden times famous as a
>v v
seat of learning and as the place of refinement
and elegance in social life.
Some .years ago Peter Cooper, the Xew
York philanthropist, bought the premises
and gave them to the Baptist Association.
Five years ago the present Institute
was founded with Pro}'. II. 1*.
-Griffith and Prof. li. (>. Sams at the
head of it. It has prospered under thi.^
management and now ranks 'nigh as ;<n
Educator of young ladies.
The exercises were very interesting
at the Commencement just closed .Abbeville
was represented on the occasion
by Miss Mamie E. Rogers, the lovely
and accomplished daughter of Capt.
Jas. Rogers of Ninety-Six. She won
first honor and delivered the Valedictory
.which was one of the most elegant,
chaste and appropriate things wo ever!
Heard upon a similar occasion. The
second honor was won by Miss Mattie
Sains, the bright young daughter of
Prof. Sams.
It will be a source of rogrot to the
frionds of Prof. Sams to know that he
has severed his connection with the Institute
and contemplates leaving the
State. He is a christian gentleman and
such a citizen as we can little afford to
lose.
The School continues under l'rof.
Griffith than whom there is no more
conscientious and able teacher.

JUDGE COTHR'AN'S RESIGNATION.
It is said that there are some electors
who think that Judge Cothran should
resign his position^as Judge if he is a
candidate for Congress.
It is but simple justice to explain the
situation. It would not be right for
Jndge Cothran to resign. If he did so
J.hia Circuit would be without a J udge
tjll the Legislature meets in November
pnd one was elected. Under the Con
Ktitution the Governor can fill a vacancy
in theofficeof Circuit Judge only when
tne unexpired term is lor less than one
year. In Judge Cothran's case the
term would be longer than that and
lience the Governor could not appoint
every member of the Bar will readilj'
see that matters affecting the lives and
liberties and property of citizens may
bo jeopardized by thero being a vacancy
for four or five months in the office
of "Jircuit Judge. Section 2123 of the
General Statutes provides that in case
of the disability, death or resignation
of a Circuit Judge after his assignment
to hold the Courts of a Circuit, the Chief
Justicc ?"ay appoint any other Circuit
Judge disengaged to hold said Courts.
.1) .. A. - -
put suppose uiey are all engaged. The
Courts of that Circuit will not be held.
It would not be wise to incur such risk.
Hence we say Judge Cothran ought not
Resign.
THE CONGRESSIONAL. RACE.
"Abbeville" has quite a sensible communication,
in another column, relative
.to the Congressioral race. lie takes
the strong ground that principle is
higher than policy and lucidly shows
Uio correctness of Judge Cothran's
position, though he disclaims writing it.

elevating statesmanship than the

people. It would take politics from the

The Congressional Race. A Correct *
Position.
c
c
A good deal lias been said by certain :
newspaper and individuals in regard to t
the position taken by .Judge Colhran as s
a candidate for Congress from this l>i>- x
trict. It is stated in substance that he j
must come down from his present j*i- t
dieial position and enter the race as ^
others intend to do. It is further said (
that his services will not be "demand- (1
ed" by the people, unless ho seeks the r
place. Who is right ? Is the idea to ,,
prevail tha^a man shall not be elected Z
to an office, without a scramble for it, (
or without seeking it ? "To ibis com- v
plcxiou has it come ?" Perhaps it i
would be proper for those aspirants, who I ,,
have not been in public life, whose posi- j
tions have not afforded an opportunity of s
determing their lilnuss for high public (
otiice?to go amongst those whose ;
votes they desire, in order that an eslimate
may be formed of their judg- j
inent, aud of their general ability to till
properly the office they seek. If, on c
the other hand, one is known to his
constituents?if his general capacity is s
admitted though he may not be /xir ex.- s
cell'Mice in every particular, he is not
called upon to make a canvass for the
purpose of securing his election. Tin; -j
abilty to electioneer is not ih<? At"
candidates ability to perform tin* duties
of the office to which he ascites, and we
assert that he who seeks most diligently
an office does not thereby give evidence
that hi; is\triving to servo his countr}'
for his country's sake, but it may reasonably
be presumed that the virtuous
thought, "can I till this place better
than others" has not been uppermost in
mind.
Surely the political aphorism, "the
office should seek the man
and not the man the office."
has fallen into *'innocous desuetude,"
and the reverse of that saying i-?
the test of fitness and talisman ot success!
What we sav is this, neither the
man who wants office and seeks it properly,
nor the man who is willing to ,
hold office, hut who does not seek it bv
electioneering Tor it, is to he- condemned
for thut reason alone. Is he fit, capable v
and honest??those should bcv the tests- 0
No amount of sophistry can invent any
other reasons for elevatingone'to public n
office, which is i public trust. If he is (l
eh c'.eil on any other grounds then voters j,
stultify themselves. So. if a candidate's fl
ability is already known and it is desired ^
that he should go np higher, it is do- p,
grading politics and statesmanship to t
say that he shall not be elevated, be- j,
cause ho will not strive to bo elected as 0
others may choose to do. There are ?
times when an active canvass may be ,t
necessary?a political enemy may be in ?
the field?but in a race between friends, ?
all democrats, none should be elected j,
but those best fitted to fill the office, g
and non-? Will then be defeated who do- n
serve promotion. jj
This is not written in the interest of v
Judge Oothran's election, but for the 0
purpose of maintaining what is thought a
to be a correct political principle, anu
certainly to say the least, a nrincinle i.
? SI
thnt should not be condemned. If the a
Judge can stand the tests indicated j,
let him be elected, if not, hisservices ^
will not and should not bo demand- v
ed. The word d'tnand, was not used in (\
nn offensive sense, as an unbiased read- e
ing of the letter in which it occurs will ?
show it has rather the meaning of lie- c

to speak of the one I consider of

In the first place allow me to as;ert
that it makes no difference as to his

position competently without

iccasion the vacancy will be lilted.
In a conversation with President Mills
ast night he stated that the meeting at
Jroenwood was largely attended, and
;re.it enthusiasm manifested. The dolgates
represented the solid citizens of
ho Counties hacking up the project, and
hns a solid character is given to the unlertaking.
President Mills says within
ixty days he will have a corps of engiieers
in the Held locating th?? rond, and
rill have the elections ordered at an
arlyday. lie expresses himself in most
ssuring terms of the complete sikvoss

roposes to run a branch line to the city
t Newberry from bis main line. ?,.d *
leeting there the Augusta, Newb rry
nd Kdgefield Railroad to Augusta, thus
ain an outlet South, West and N-?rlh,-est.
It will be seen at once that the 1
iropofition of President Mills shows the
reat importance of the project, and will
ot only be a big thing for Chester and i
he other coirmunities at interest. but
rill give the Robinson system a startling i
pportunity to reach out into the South
nd West.
Athens, Georgia, is bidding strong to
ave the road extended on to that city,
nd delegates were appointed to be
resent at the meeting at Greenwood,
iut their absence was enforced by high
raters. They telegraphed, however,
hat Athens was heart and soul in the
nterprise and would back it up in a
lost .substantial way. There is great
onfidence in the project all along the
ine in South Carolina, and tln?re is :n> '
nthusiasm appnreiit among1 the people <
tint assures its success beyond a doubt, i
'here seems to be everv reason also to 1
elieve that the s ?ri system will ]
o-operate in pushing through the road, <
o that it may as well be set down that
lie Chester. Greenwood and Abbeville 1
luilroA'l will be built beyond cavil. i
There is one thing certain at any rate, t
nd that is ff the road is to bo built i
resident Mills is the man te do ii.
irimful of energy and pluck, and
ossessing great organizing skill and
xecutivo ability, it might bo truly said
o "is the right man in the right place." 1
[e is one of the largest land owners in 1
hcster County, a substantial and su<?
cessful fnrincr, and is "a good one" on
the stump advocating railroads or loading
a political campaign. President
Mills is remembered in South Carolina
as the able and invincible Chairman o(?
the Democratic County Kxecutive Committee
of Chester, and his yeoman ser*
vice in the heat and struggle of the eainpaigns
of 187U and 1878 are known of

good men and true?the young, vigorous
manhood and pushing element o!" the
country who have the bruins, the muscle
and the money wherewithal to
move.
Mr. Jones, one of the Chester Directors,
is a fair example of the class
named. He is a Dallimorean, who has
for live years been in business in Clies;er
and is iu>w the leding merchant of
that city.? Columbia 1!c<jinter.

applicants for scholarships to
enroll themselves as regular pupils of
the Institute at the beginning of the
