WINNSBOIO, S. C.
SATURDAY, APRIL 5, 1879.
R. MREANS DA VIS, EDITOR.
JNO. S. tEYNOLDB. ASSOCIATE EDITOn.
PRESIDENT A. D. WVHITE, of Cornell
University, has been appointed Minis
ter to Germany. lie was a pet of
Grant's and served on the notorious
San Domingo Con111s1111sion.
YEAns AcO Switzerland became a
land of moral ideas and relined senti
inent, and could no longer bear the
spectacle of a human being dangling
by his neck between heaven and earth.
The death penalty was abolished.
But crime increased to such an extent,
and murderers manifested so little
f1ear of the law, that the Swiss have
been compelled to take a step back
ward. A bill is now in course of en
actment restoring capital punishment.
Switzerland's act is commended to
our Northern brethren, who, under
their benignant, laws, ire raising an
Immense crop ot burglars, wifb-poison
ers and incendiaries.
HATES is TEAIINU his vaunted civil
service reform to tatters. His last
achievement ila this line is the niomi
nation of 1). T. Corbin for Chief Jus
tice of Utah. Justice weeps at the
attempted profanation of her sanetna
ry. We pity the poor devils whose
destinies may rest in Corbin's hands.
lie has proven himself coli, cruel, un
scrupulous and devilish, with no more
appreciation of law, in its higher
sense, than swine have for pearls.
Ils diabolic persecution of alleged
ku-kluk, with packed juries and Fed
eral bayonets, speaks volumes. The
manner In which he backed up the
Canvassing Board ill its defiance of
the constitution and statutes, show
that he is 110 more fitted to dispense
justice on the civil side of the court
than he is to sit il crimninal cases.
The Radicals are preparing for a raid
on the Mormons, and for the purpose
of harassing and injuring these peo
ple, and stealing their money, no
better tool than Corbin can be found.
But a Democratic Senate will be
eternally disgraced if it hesitates for a
moment to hurl Corbin's nomination
back in the President's face.
Democratie Folly.
The Democrats certainly ear an
good deal of the reputation for st,upidi
ty given them by their opponents.
The other day Tucker offered a bill
allowing ex-Confederates to onter the
United States army. Why he did this
at an extra session, and especially at
this juncture when the South is bat
tling desperately aiga ist the accusa
tion that having cap)tuired Congress
she intends to revolutionize the gov
ernmnent, wye cannlot, for the world,
conceive. If she did contemplate
revolution, she could uiot p)ossibly
conceive a better plan for ensurinig
success than the offlcering of' the army
with mna in symnpathy with the move
menit. Of' courlse the bill1 failed, but
It servedl to add anIother' link to thle
chlain of Radical argulnmnt. Genleral
Chalmers was equllly unfo rt unmate
w~hien he said in his speech that the
South wams not afraid of revolution.
She wais acculstomned to thle idea sinice
tile days of' Washlington. lIn striking
contr'ast with nll this wvas Ilihl's mans
terly retort to Blaminie,' that the South
hlad lost all by revolut.ion, and( the
Radicals had gained eighteeii years of
power by it; anId thlat tIle dlesire for
'revolution w~as confluied to the Riadi
cal br'east. We have no doubt that imn
time everyv cit izen of' tIhe Unitedl
States, wvhatev'er his record, will be
eligible f'or appoinltmlent ill theC armny.
But it is wvell enough not to crowd
things. Tile three measurles no0w be
fore Congiress wvill sufficiently fest the
skill and p)luck- of the DemIocraLts with
out having aniother bone of contenltion
thrown iln.
The Objections to Randall's Election.
Fr'om o private letter received fr'om
Hlon. John IH. Evinis we are enabled
to give thme reaIsons that implelled the
OPl.ositioni to Mr. Rlandall's re-election
by those who were not mnerely actuat
ed by persBonah motives. .'Tho fIrst
charge brought against Mr'.' Randall
was that in organiz7ing the committees
of the last House he 'allowed his pireju
dices against those who had opposed
hin, and his desIre to secure re-elec
tion, ifluenice him too greatly." Ini
or'der' to cap)ture the Southern vote,
the chairmianship of every Iiportant
commiittee excep)t the "Ways and
Means" was given to some Southern
man, Tenniessee alone receiving three
imp)ortantL appoi ntmaents. Colonel
Evins says: "The chairmanship of not
a single Important coTmmittee was
given to the Northwvest, which comitted
among Its representatives soine of the
strongest men on our' side." 'Colonel
Evins could niot see the "polioy" of
putting a Northlern man in the speak
ership to give the organizatioh through
it. .'nnmmp1ttOan t tJiE Bomth li
thinks that by not electing Blackburt
"we lost i golden opportunity f-)
sileucing forever the oft repeate<
charge that a Southern man Canno
yet be intrusted with power." Black
burn and the South could aive st
impartially organized (Ite flouse as t<
defy the criticism of the people of th
North. Randall can give no such as
suratee for the $o tth, and he wil
iatittuaIlly, as he did bebfor, "give t<
Sonthern Itepreseltatives that ver
power which the friends of Mr. Ban
(all say it is dangerous for them. t<
wield. Blackburn could and wouk
have done full justice to all sections
Randall cunnot and will not do it.
unless his ambition is satistled so fai
as the speakership is concerned."
A t a meeting of Congressmen beforc
the end of last Congress, to discuss the
spe+tkership, such Northern Democrat.
as McMahon and Ewing, of Ohio
Morrison and Springer, of Illinois
and ltauk, of Wisconsin, said: "W
will cheerfully support a Southert
man, and think as a matter of policy
that such a man should be elected. I
will do us good at (lie North by put
ting to rest the cry that the Soutl
cannot yet be trusted." Colonel Evin:
concltules: "Influenced by such con
siderations as I have stated, and man11111
more which I have neither space no
time to dwell upon, 1, with such abSc
and conservative meni as Tucker
House and others, voted for Black.
burn. Many more of the best men o
this section who 1 know sympathizec
with us in our views voted for Mr
Randall, simply because they had beet
honored by him with important con
mtittees. I have seen no reason t<
change my opiiton, and believe thl
argumenits for the re-election of Mr
Randall will hold good twenty year,
frot now if they hold good to-day."
Colonel Evits distinctly states tha
he had himself nto grievance to re
dress, that thie Committees on whicl
he was appointed were as good al
he, a new man', could expect. Ii
foruned his opinion deliberately am
without passion or prejudice.
As we regretted his vote in a forme
issue, we take pleasure in presentint
Colonel Evins' views, though thel
were not intended for publication
We still adl.ere to our former posi
tion: not that we doubt. ourselves foi
a momeunt that the South can bi
trusted with power. But in the faci
of all the howls about the Rebe
SHiiate, and the Conifederacy capturit
Washiigton, and such stuif, it is wis,
to go slowly and carefully. Stil
Colonel Evits states his side of thi
Case strony:ly. It is undeniable tha
Ranadall has shown prejudice and sell
aggrandizement in his appointmentia
Instead of following the old precedent
of giving his opponents for the speak
er'shipl imiportant coimmittees, lie ovet
slaughed them all in thie Forty-fflu
Congress. IIo may be wiser tli
imea. If not more judicious, he ma:
well expect defeat in 1880.

fSERious ACCIDENT.--Mr. D. BalT
.Jr*., Boll of.Ma\jot' D. T1. Barr, ih
lives near ,Gilbert Hollow, in1 Loxing
ton county, met with a serIone, if no
i fatal accident, on last Monday morn
r" ing. It seens the young man went to
the barn after some peas which were
in a box in the second story. The box
t contained some five or six bushels.
- Young Thomas pulled the box to the
l'head of the stairs and got in front of
it to slide it down behind him, but his
strength being unequal to the occasion,
he was precipitated to the bottom, the
box rushing after, one corner striking !
I hint on the left side of the head, cut
tin. entirely through the flesh just
below the jaw bone, the gash extend
ing from the ear to the chiln, and ex
posintg the glands of the throat. His
teet.h on ile left side were shattered
into pieces. It is feared, also, that. ho
has received severe internal injuries.
I)r. haves was called in to attend the
unfortunate suflerer, and fro"m 111111 we
obtalined our iutbrnmation a few hours
after the accident occurred. We have
heard nothing later of his condition.
