LAURENS, S.C., Feb. 8,1888. TUc Trial .lustire Must Go. Surely the time bas como when tlio people of this State can see the Trial Justice system as a most bur densome and inefficient institution. The legislature bas refused to give us relief, and unless the subject is agitated and discussed in the Slnto at large, we may expect to see fer years to come such appalling sums as are now published, taken from the County Treasury annually. Tho whole system of Trial Justices is wrong, and we have always ad vocated a clean sweep. No chango in the constitution is neoded, for thc legislature which created can also destroy. In the first place, it is wrong in principle ns well as per nicious in practice so far as this County is concerned, to allow the fees of these officers to We deter mined by the number of warrants issued, and especially when these | fees are paid by the County. The two Trial Justices in Laurens this year received from the County i l 12.56, while $1,141.00 is the aggre gate amount paid to alt. Consta bles claimed about $900.00 of the County funds, making a grand to tal of something like (2,041.96, which amount is probably one-half thc cost of the Trial Justices. Now when we consider the service they have done tho State, is this a rea sonable expense ? Is it economy? "There is no wrong without a rem? eily." Where is it in this case? Just here wc venture some sugges tions. lu the first placo, let there bc but one man in each County to try offenders, call him Trial Justice, Justice of the Peace, County Judge, or what you will. Give him a sal ary of $800 per annum, with ti constable at a salary of $500. Give to the Grand Jury the power to commit offenders, and here let the expense end. This ono Trial Jus tice at tho County seat may dispose of civil cases, and the costs and fees may bo turned over to the County Treasurer, and we venture to say tbttt with efficient men in the office the cost of preserving peace and order will be materially lowered if not taken from the County alto gether. This thing of having a judicial tribunal at every cross-roads in creases litigation fearfully. Wc ofTer in support of Ibis the cost of the Trial Justico nt this place in 188G, which was $357, when we had ene, against $112 in 18S7 with two. We make no charge against the Trial Justices. So far as we know tboy have done nothing but what the law allows, but the point is that the more Trial Justices wo have the more litigation, and conse quently expenso on the County. Schemes That Fall. The Watch-word of the hour is co-operation. Every year brings its quota of co-operative societies, which in turn gain their quota of members, bent on growing strong and rich by co-operation. The most extensivo co-operative move ment that has over claimed the at tention of tho farmers, was the Orango. This order had ns a fun damental idoa, the improvement af farmers, socially and'educatlonal ly, and so long as this idea was not entirely overshadowed by the co operative, anti-middleman craze tho Grange was a success. But like all similar efforts, it did not ad here to the original purpose of the founders of the order. The vari ous divisions began to establish co-, operative factories and stores, buy ing and selling agents, and to ex periment in every field which fur nishes employment to the brains and muscle of man. Upon this rock the order split. Man is a social being, and this principle in human nature alone, is sufficient to upset tho idea that any society can band together to net in dependently of their neighbors, and attai n any great success. These co operative societies place great stress upon U)0 assistance one per son renders another, and this very Argument carried out, will shake the groundwork of such organiza tions. The world is so made that supply and demand govern tho pro duction of goods. This Is the law which Impel?a men to perfect them selves in literature scienco and art. Indeed, it ls tho grand law which moves the Industries of the world and any restruction placed upon commerce, is to that extent, in jurious, A car of capitalists left Connec ticut on Saturday for a ten days' ''on of tho fleutb. D?RCUBH?OII or No 1 Mscussiou? This will be an interesting year politically. Al! tho elective ottlces will be vacant, ar. I tho dear people will be called upon to All them, from the batch of patriotic citizens who express a willingness to be sacrificed upon their country's altar Ho far ns this county is concern ed, we usually have ample means Of knowing tho individu?is who are seeking oilier. They como forward and with little hesitation proclaim themselves candidates, and ask for ofllce. Their character and fitness arc passed upo.?, and nn election usually expresses thc choice of a majority of Democratic voters. Can aa much be said willi reference to Stateofllcers. His a reflection upon j our State, that after years of homo , rulo, tho mass of voters havo no choice in selecting tho candidates of tho democratic pur ty. There may have been a time, when for the sake of harmony and tho success of tho party, itv. ?s ulvisnble to al low candidates to be chosen by dis creet mei'," but no 8UCh reasons now exist, und the people are anx ious to oxerclse their prerogative. It is not necessary that the State Officers should be nominated in a primary election. That is useless, und would bo troubl some, but the State Executive Committee of the party, should by nil means arrange to have a canvass of tho State by those who aspire to ofllce, prior to tho seloction of delegates to the nominating con\ ontion. This will givo the people an opportunity of knowing who nro candidates, and tho delegates then elected will ex press the direct voice of the people. No harm can possibly result from a thorough discussion of political questions. Indeed it is absolutely essential to tho proper exorciso of the elective franchise. Fair and full discussion of the questions of state polity, is educational, and servos to make mon better inform ed ot the spirit and genius of our government; and hence, better cit izens. It also tends to dissipate pre judice; to exterminate demagog uery, which subsists on the credu lity of ignorance. ! But moro im portant still, this discussion of iss ues will allow the people instead of tho few to dictate the policy of the state. Let it come; from the people wo have nothing to fear. Away with the idea that the people cannot bo trusted to elect their own rulers to shape the course of the state! To al low a few men to meet together and declare candidates who havo al ready been nominated by a few oth er men, while tho people have been in total ignorance of the whole mnt teris a tacit cd mission that pop ular election is n failure. We repud iate tho idea, and will rejoice to see the democracy of South Carolina rise in her might and demand a deal above the bo ird. Now is the timeKiu this year of eur Lord ono thousand eight hun dred and eighty-eight j and let Lau rens, foremost in redeeming the state in '7G be also in the front rank in claiming a strict adherance to democratic principles in '88. If nothing more is grunted, wo trust that when the nominating conven tion is called the delegatos from Laurens at least will protest against a nomination unf!l tho candidates are heard hythe people. Since tlie passage of tho recent pension bill in this State, much un certainty and some difference of opinion has arisen over the con struction placed on the word "in come" as it appen rs in sections 2 and 4. The board of approval has given notico to Au-alors that it means the gross incomo from any source, so that no man who has a gross income from any source, of 12?0 per annum can receive tho money. A subscriber asks for a definition of tho word "agnostic." Our an swer is, literally, "not knowing." It is npplied to one who professes ignorance concerning tho existence ot a personal Deity. Those who bold that owing to the limits of tho human mind the existeuce of a personal Deity can be neither af firmed nor denied. Thoy aro op posed alike to dogmatic skepticism and dogmatic theism. It is not beyond tho range of pos sibility that Col 1). lt. Duncan will soon bo sent to Congress, in which Gvent Laurens has a candidate to succeed lil m who is thc peer of any man in this Judicial District. Few men aro moro eminently fitted for tho duties of Solicitor than N.J. Holmes Esq. An able lawyer, elo quent advocate, cultured and cour teous gentleman; lie is a formable candidate. The only doubt that hus flitted across Cleveland's chances for re election is, that Henry Oeorge will iupport him. It is thought, how ever, that the opposition of Dr. McGlynn will more than offset such Et calamity. The latest from tho old world tells that Germany and Austria Ad ll force tho Czar toan immediate ?ar on the frontier. A strong effort is being made to getreducod tickets on tho railroads for persons coining South with a view to becoming settlers. Thia will undoubtedly result in perma nent good. We need a healthy im migration, such as will take bold ami dcyelop our resources. Emt* grant tickets have advanced the West, and will aid the South. ANOTHER LULA HURST. 8ho ls a Modlum of Oroat Forco-The Ta ble Does Not Rap, But Olves Out a Peculiar Noise. A rival to Lula Hurst, moro won derful in lier powers and mysteries in ber performances, bas developed in Milledgeville, On., in the person of Mrs. Dixie liaygood, widow of the late City Marshal liaygood, who was murdered during the pro hibition campaign. Recent seances in Milledgeville, witnessed by edi tors and ethers, and vouched forby the Chroniolef show that she ls a medium of great force. Mrs. liay good does not require the laying of bands upon the table liefere the mysterious rapping commences. She simply takes a sent nt thc table, rests either ber band or elbow upon it and asks If a spirit is present. Immediately the table responds by rapping. The table does not risc and rap with Its legs. A peculiar noise is beard on it like the drop ping of water. She cnn direct tho rapping where she pieuses. A young gentleman who bas lived here only a year asked if a spirit present knew lum. One answered in the affirmative. He asked where lt bad known him. It replied "Lou isville." It was then requested to give tho Initials, and finally to spell tho name of the departed spirit, which it did. The name was that of acquaintance that the young man bad not beard of in twenty years. A farmer near Milledgeville lost a bale ol cotton. He went to Mrs. Hnygood's, and the spirits told thc name of the negro who bad stolen it, who lie sold the cotton to and where it could be found. Tho far mer investigated tbo matter and found bis cotton just as the spirits directed. A young man wns communing with a cousin who bad died. Ile wrote in bis note book: "Are you happy in the spirit world?" Thc answer came: ,ll never did it and God knows that I did not." As the answer was read the young man turned pale and sprang up lroni bis seat, avowing that be was satisfied. He exhibited thc question and the spectators could see no connection between thc two. After the young man grew calm he said that while be bad written the question itt bis note book, yet ho was all the time thinking of a crime that bad been charged to bis cousin, and which bud never boen cleared up, and the answer was to the question in bis mind and not to the one written. lint aside of spiritualism, which Mrs. Haygood says she doesn't ur. derstand nt all, and doesn't know what to believe about it, that lady is the equal of Lula Hurst. She will not weigh one hundred pounds, airTj yet she can overcome the strength of several strong men. rtho takes a hilliard cue and bolds it up in front ol ber and stands on one foot and debes any two men to push bor backward. She stands llat footed and"defies any man to catch ber hy the arms and lift her. She seems glued to the floor, and one is afraid of breaking ber an/is. She continues to stund immovable. She catches hold of a billiard cue and two men try to lift her, but lt is the same. She takes the cue anti no three or four men can put it to tho ground with their combined strength. As many men ns nan get in a chair may pile on il, and by simply placing the palms of ber bunds on the cbnir rounds she lifts them two or three inches from thc floor. A strong man may catch a chair up in bis arms, and the little giantess bas only to place the palm of one band on the bottom and the other on the back, and the person goes staggering about the floor in spite of himself. All these remark able fonts are performed and she doesn't appear to strain a muscle. Rumors About Soot horn Rail roads* In bis last report to the board of directors of tho Richmond Termi nal Company, President Sully makc9 a strong recommendation that the system of railroads under the control of that company try the experiment of establishing and op erating an express system for its linen in place of the express service of which the Southern Express com pany now bas exclusive control. Out of this urines a sensation which had its origin evon further back than this recommendation of President Sully, but which was strengthened and assumed shape when tho Richmond Terminal had before it for consideration this scheme by which to displace the Southern Express company from its lines. It is said that the Pennsylvania Central Railroad is making its way to the South. The rumor is ono of several months' standing, but little attention bas been heretofore paid to it, from the fact that no tangible evidenco was on hand by < h lon to demonstrate Its truth. Those be hind tho scenes say that tho Penn sylvania Central road, which Is largely interested in tho Southern Express Company, is now actively CLOSING 0 CLOT X_i .
