that IMSTASTKFLL PAKAHRAI’II.
When in our unsophisticated inno
cence, a week or two ago, we dared to
mention a letter which had appeared
in the public prints, to state a fact
which had come to our knowledge,
and to ask, as we thought, a harmless
(piestion, we did not dream of tread
ing on forbidden ground, much less
of making a vicious attack upon any
body or anything under the shining
sun. But it seems we unconsciously
sowed the teeth of the dragon and
a crop of armed spearmen has sprung
up to dispute our right to speak or
even to think.
Note this from the Spartanburg
ilerahl;
"Tlit' (iiilTricy LetbitT and the Wiiithro|>
president have been evlianyiiij: iiaper hul-
lels, andiit the present writinff the college
seems to have the better of the iiriTUinent.
The Ledger ehurjred that the Winthrop man
had handled the truth carelessly, hut thecir-
eumslanres of the ease do not seem toliear
out such a t heory.”
And this from the Yorkville En
quirer :
The Gaffney Ledger prefers a serious
charge against the president of Winthrop
college. It says:
"President Johnson, of Winthrop Normal
college, writes the governor that the* college
has been compelled to t urn off :i()t) applieatits
for lack of dormitory room. And yet we hap
pen to know that scholarships are still being
offered and girls already matriculated in
other institutions are being persuaded to
violate their contracts with those instilulions
and go to Winthrop. How is this?”
No rcliahle, : self-respecting now spa |>er would
make u charge like this unless it were in a
|>osii ion to support the same with incontro
vertible facts. Tills may lie a fact and it may
not tie. We are admittingonly the possibility,
not the probability. We have loo much con
fidence in President Johnson to suspect him
of being capable of anything of the kind.
Hut tills paragraph is going the rounds of t lie
state press, and in the absence of personal
information as to the conditions involved,
there are hundreds of people who will he un
able to eoiircive of any reason why it was
written except because it is true. Pacts
names and dates are in order.
Since the almve was put in type, we note
tiiai President Johnson says that the extent
Winthrop's offense was to notify a young
lady who stood second in a competitive ex
amination for a Winthrop scholarship and
afterward went to Limestone, that the schol
arship had fallen to lux, by reason of the
failure of (lie young lady alio stood first to
take it. And I his is iiiiignilied into a whoic-
•ih* persuasion of young ladies to “violate
theircoiuiaets'’ null other in-,iUt!i..oi... „
accept free scholarships in Winthrop!
Now, we thought we bad done with
thip, and so stated when wo printed
the article from the Columbia .State,
containing I'rof. .Johnson’s explana
tion. But lest our esteemed con
temporaries quoted above should
think they have put us to silence and
to shame, we shall raise our feeble
voice one time more.
First, we ask our readers to com
pare our paragraph with that from
the .Spartanburg Herald, both repro
duced above, and see if they can
find a single expression in ours that
will justify either the words or the
spirit of the Herald. The Herald
surely either never read our article
or is incapable of understanding
printed language when it sees it.
"Paper bullets are being thrown by
Winthrop’s president and the Led
ger, and, the college has the better
of the argument.’’ That is a curious
sentence and worthy to bo exhibited
us a i.usus lingua;. While the presi
dent and the Ledger are throwing
paper bullets, the college gets the
better of the argument. Argument!
Shades of Whately and Hamilton!
where is there even the semblance of
an argument in all that has been
said? “The Ledger charged that the
Winthrop man had handled the truth
carelessly." Where? When? How?
If we have ever made such a charge
against Prof. Johnson, we are not
aware of it, and if informed of it oy
a reliable witness, wo stand ready to
make a humble, abject apology. We
respect him and bis position too
highly to make such a charge lightly.
We have seldom seen so much error
of statement and of construction
crowded into two sentences, us those
two short sentences from the Herald
contain.
As regards the most of what the
Yorkville Enquirer has to say we
have no reply to make. We note
with pleasure its loftiness of tone in
attributing some vague impossibili
ties to "reliable, self-respecting
newspapers," for we remember that
in the not very distant past we had
occasion to read some pungent les
sons to the Enquirer on subjects hav
ing a decided bearing on reliaL"' , y
and self-respect, and we are glad to
see some little indication that our
labor was not altogether in vain.
But the Enquirer is not justliuble
in distorting what we said into an
attack upon Prof. Johnson. We
were particular not to say that he
was persuading pupils to violate
their contracts with other colleges.
What wo did say was, "pupils are
being pursuaded." and we did not
say by whom. We are abundantly
able to make good this assertion in
the face of the whole w’orld. When
it is remembered that Winthrop has
a number of officers ar.d attaches,
and hosts of political friends and
servants, that assertion cannot, ex-
cent by the most violent and malic
ious distortion, bo construed into a
personal attack upon Prof. Johnson.
The Enquirer calls for facts, names
and dates to justify what it is pleased
to consider one insignificant transac
tion "magnified into a charge of
wholesale persuasion of pupils to
violate their contracts." Wo have
already given one fact, and if they
must come, we cun give others; we
wo can also give dates approximately
—accurately if necessary ; names we
will not give at this time, because we
have too high a regard for the feel
ings of hightoned, sensitive young
iudies to drag their names before the
public in order to gratify the morbid
curiosity of the Yorkville Enquirer
or anybody else. We happen to
know that as many as three young
ladies made contracts with Limestone
for the session and canceled them for
the purpose of going to Winthrop.
One of these contracts was carried so
far that the father had sent a check
covering the expenses of half the
session, and hud written that bis
daughter had left home for Lime
stone, but would stop a day or two to
visit some friends at Winthrop. The
visit ended, she went on to Limestone
and annulled her contract and re
turned to Winthrop. Wo have it
from good authority that while she
was on her visit to Winthrop, a place
in the dormitory was promised her if
she would enter Winthrop instead of
Limestone. We have no right to
assert that any other inducements
were offered, but reserve the rigid, to
infer what we please.
This young lady had no scholarship
in Winthrop, and the dormitories are
supposed to have been all taken in
June, or before the two hundred pu
pils were refused admission for the
lack of dormitory room—except such
as were reserved for those who might
win scholarships. This all took place
after the opening of the session. A
few days later another young lady
annulled her engagement at Lime
stone and went to Winthrop.
We do not know any of the particu
lars of this case except that both
had engaged rooms at Limestone
early in the lull, and the rooms had
been reserved for them.
Now, as our esteemed contempo
raries seem determined to drug us
into a controversy, we dare to repeat
our, "How’s this?"
And while we are about it, we also
dare as a taxpayer, to ask the State
South Carolina this question,
Why is it, when two hundred girls,
who are willing and anxious to pay
their way in your college, you rule
them out, and hire others to attend,
paying them .til apiece in cash, with
numerous perquisites, and that with
out any regard to their ability or
inability to pay board and tuition?
In other words, why do you hire one
hundred and twenty-five girls at $44
and perquisites apiece to attend
your college, rather than admit two
hundred others supposed to be just
ns worthy, who propose to pay you
for their board and tuition? Because
it is law? Whoso law is il? Yours.
Then had you not better either
abolish that law or extend it so that
all of the girls and boys within your
borders can come and partake of
your bounty, and bo paid, say. $100
apiece for so doing?
You will excuse our presumption,
but "if that be treason, make the
most of it."
Finally, in view of the fact that wo
did not know that the scholarship
first mentioned was given to an al
ternate, and that we do not yet know
why, even in that case, it was de
layed nearly a month after the open
ing of the colleges—that we knew of
the t. j other cases mentioned above
—that all these cases had occurred
In only one college, and we had
knowledge of them only from
the close proximity of that
college—in view of all those
facts, we ask every fair-minded
reader of these articles if we were not
justified in saying that "scholarships
are still being granted and pupils are
being persuaded."
The v. hole case rests right here
and wo submit the question to an
intilligent and unprejudiced public,
and will abide by its decision.
ABOUT UUKLI.INO.
Mr.-J. T. Gantt in last Sunday’s
issue of the State gives an interest
ing epitome of the history of dueling
in South Carolina and of the move
ment which finally resulted in abol
ishing the practice.
A number of anti-dueling petitions
have recently been discovered in the
rubbish of the State house in Co-
lumnia, which throw much light on
an almost forgotten chapter of South
(Carolina history. Some of these
petitions date back to the early years
of the century and are signed by
many men who were then eminent in
politics, letters, and social life. It
is asserted that one of them is
headed by a name no less distin
guished than that of Charles Cotes-
worth I’ineknoy.
We believe that it was the abuse
of the practice of duelling rather
than the practice itself, that finally
aroused a sentiment against it,
strong enough to overthrow it.
Ramsay’s History is quoted as re
cording the fact that at one period
the State lost on an average four or
live x tizens every year in duels.
Further it is stated that mere lads
too young to vote or to execute their
wills, caught the spirit of the times
and frequently settled disputes over
the most trivial things, at the
mouth of the pistol on "the field of
honor." For a long time there was
a greater number of duels fought in
South Carolina every year than in all
of the nine states lying north of Mary
land. Some of the most brilliant
and promising young men that the
state has ever produced, met foes
who were in every respect unworthy
of them, and yielded up their lives to
a strained code of honor backed by
superior marksmanship.
It was but natural that popular
sentiment should revolt against a
practice attended by such direful con
sequences. As action and reaction
are equal in morals as well as in
physics, it was natural that the
pendulum of popular opinion should
swing to the other extremity of the
arc and public sentiment should
condemn as heartily as it had ever
approved.
We candidly believe, in the light
of subsequent conditions, that the
reaction was unfortunate. We ab
hor the very idea of the shedding of
man’s blood under any circumstances,
and we regard the duel ns a barba
rous practice which originated in
superstition, and which rested on
principles and notions altogether
false and degrading. As a mode of
settlement or as an arbiter of right
and justice, it is, and must always
be, a dead failure. It settles noth
ing but the iiuestion as to which of
the two combatants possesses the
steadier nerve or is the better marks
man. That is a question far too in
significant to involve the sacrafico of
a human life, or even the exposure of
a life for one moment to the risk of
extermination.
But the duel was not an unmiti
gated evil. It exercised a wholesome
restraint on public ar.d private
morals, it made men careful of their
acts, their words, and, to some ex
tent, their thoughts; it minded them
continually of their personal respon
sibility, of the respect that is due
from man to man, and of the dignity
and inviolability of human charac
ter. We seriously^ question whether
the beneficial results of its abolish
ment are commensurate with the
wholesome effects of its practice,
while there is no question in our
mind that the evils which have fol
lowed its abandonment are greater
and more demoralizing to society
at large than all it over inflicted.
It is palpable to every observant
mind during the last decade, that the
standard of public morality has been
greatly lowered; respect for purity
and integrity of character has been
greatly diminished; the vilest
slanders are uttered and printed
without even a rebuke, because the
slandered has little or no means of
redress except that of iterating, "you
are another"—a redress which brings
poor comfort to wounded and injured
honor.
We would not be understood as
advocating a revival of the code.
We believe that the present state of
affairs will be gradually ameliorated
without it. There must be a reac
tion from the reaction. If we
thought that would never come,
i then we should advocate duelling as
the less of two evils. There are some
things which a man of honor and
spirit will not stand and ought not
to stand, and when neither law nor
public sentiment will protect such
a man against them, he is morally
compelled to seek a remedy with his
own hands. That remedy will
usually bo found in the deadly pistol
or the equally deadly knife.

[From Tuexdiiy'', Greenville News.]
Most of yesterday’s session of the |
Federal district court was consumed !
in the trial of T. A. Philips, of GaiT- i
ncy, accused of making counterfeit
money, passing it and having it in
ins possession. The defendant was
represented by T. B. Butler, of Gall- j
ney, and Cant. J. A. Mooney, of this
city, and was acquitted. The same
case came up before Mr. Butler when
he was commissioner at Gaffney in
1890 and he dismissed it. Mr. Phil
lips had cornu to Mr. Butler with
$4.75 in counterfeit money and turn
ed it over to him, saying he did not
want to get into trouble by having it
in bis possession. later the case
came up before Commissioner J. B.
Bell at Gaffney, with additional wit
nesses, some swearing they had seen
Phillips’ moulds and others that he
had told them he had made the
spurious stuff and passed it. The
goverment did not ask for a verdict.
Mr. Phillips had a bad time of it in
jail. He had been in the Gaffney jail
since the 8th of last August, and
while incarcerated, according to his
physician, Dr. C. A. Jefferies, of Gaff
ney, ho has not only passed through
an illness of typhoid fever, but has
had a spell of hydrophobia as well.
