That Section 13 of the <; . ebarter of the town of Newberry be amended byr adding after -the word kState,' in line 5-, the following: Proided, That in all cases the de fendantshall have the right of trial by jury and the :same right of appeal as now allowed by law in Trial Justice -ourts in the -State.", So that said Se tion when amended sall read as fol lows: S, cno0 13. That the said Mayor and Aldermen shall be vested jointly and severally with jurisdiction in all eriminal cases that shall occur within the corporate limits of said town equal to that now vested by law in Trial Justices in this State: 1rovided, That in all eases the defendant shall have x .- the right of trial by jury and the same fight of -appeal as now allowed by law in Trial Justice Courts in this State. ut It Is provided that at some hour during the -morning of each day the Mayor, or acting Mayor, of said town shall hold court-todisposeof such cases a may be ready for trial or other con deration. SECnON 14. -That all Acts or parts of Acts inconsistent with this Act be, and the same are hereby, repealed. The above is a bill introduced in the Legislature a" its present session by Mr. Blease. It has been before the Judicisry Committee and has received a favorable report. In fact, we believe ithas passed t be House and will to day receive' its first reading in the Senate. Under our present charter the3Mayor has jurisdiction the same as Trial Jus tiees in eases that are violations of the State laws, and the rule followed in Newberry has been to turn all such ~ sses over to the Trial Justice. There ^ is no necessity or reason for making out of the Mayor a Trial Justice. Be sides, to-all-v a jury for . every little offence that cones before the Mayor's eourt for any and every violation of the town ordinances, will entail un toid and unending trouble and annoy ance and make the Mayor's office nothing but a Trial Justice court, and be of no practical benefit to any one. As to. appeals from the Mayor's court we think that Judge Kershaw was right hen he held that the right appeals did exist. If it does not It ought; but there Is no need or de mand for a (jury in the many little cases before -the Mayor. It is - o .be hoped thatthls part of the bill at least wilL be strickien out, It must. have originated with Mr. Bless. himself, because4he bill is quite ansuprls~ to alt our people here, and *thieyere arefif not unnio, ~opppsede palsage. The mate will -be- brought to-the ~. ttention of Senatpr Sligh, and no doubt when he finds that our people do not want any such law, he will stop jpassage in the Senate. LEXamoX COLLEGE. 'e resignation of President Strode, of clmson College, does not seem to ha' been altogether unexpected. He has -sea good officer, but for good ra to himself saw fit to send in 11isle'~ of resignation. Ho~ does this affect the political sit -ati .The position has to be filled, and meeis going to be the usual arm for that as for every other office. eboard of trustees had hoped to ke~~e fact quiet~until they s leot'ed- Strode's successer, so as to -doidth exece food of applica tions. SoIaras a be learned the only names wntinediirconnection with the pouitionon a6eount of their connection with the ..Reform" mov. % Win. StokesC CMge urg, and W. . Benet, of Abbeville. Mr. Benet's guaieations' are very well known. Dr. Stokeas ight school somewjhere out In Tenisseee before coming to Bouth Carolina to run for office. The above Is from the Columbia cor respondence of the News and Courier. It will be a great pity if the Clemson -College should get into politics. We do not now say anything about the fitnessof the two gentlemen mentioned for the presidency, but no man should - be elected to such position on .account of his-political relations-to any faction of the party. We do not believe that the Board of Trustees will be goverred by any such motives. If the college is to succeed and prosper as an educa tional institution it must be kept as ~free "from politics as .itis possible to keep a State institution. By the way, we were told the other --day in Columbia that It had been set -tlethatMr..Benet was to be the sue cessor of Judge Iziar as Judge of the 7irst Circuit. sMaLL ECONOMY. We hav, noted that a bill will be in troduced at the present session of the Legislature to take from the sheriff the -- business of dieMng prisoners confined in jais and de'volve this duty upon the county commissioners. The sheriff gets thirty cents per capita for this. Some political economist has calcu lated that the actur' -ost of the umate -rial per capita is not more than fifteen eats. He wants to work a great re form by thus rediptg the already scanty perquisites of the sheriff who is next to the hardest worked officer in the county. The same gentleman might get some glory by further re ducing the pay of the witnesses for-the State in criminal cases. They now get 50-cents a day. Thirty cents would be less-a saving of twenty cents on each witness. Then trial justioes might be required to work for fifty cents a day: Provided if the case should be con cluded before 12m., his aggregate costs shall not exceed the sum of twenty-five cents.-ickens Sentinel. You are right; such a bill as this would be small economy. The sheriffs are not only the hardest worked offi cers, but are about the poorest paid. * f the dieting of prisoners is taken away, we suppose, the caring for pris oners will also be taken away; unless it is expected to devolve this duty on thesheriff without pay.. The pay for dieting prisoners has already\ been re duced. dItused tobe 35eets.NMaybe - he.gIIture will abolishi the office "EFOE3tS." The present administration wentIntc power on the plea ot '-reform" and-s reduction of expenses. It has been in power two years and starts out on it: third year. On the subject of reform the Greenville News has the following: With this session of the legislature the work of "reform' ought to be com pleted so far as legislation can do it and where is the 'reform?" The phos phate royalties have been "reformed' to a falling off of $80,000 from "the old ring" time, the rail roads have been "reformed" into the hands of receivers. -Prohibition was not part of the "re form" program. Yet it is the impor tant question of this session. The only other serious matter is the proposed general railroad law. Then what does all the "reform" and hurrah amount to? I wonder if the most en thusiastic "reformers" who face and consider the cold facts, who weigh what has been done by what has been said and promised and threatened, dc not find their stomachs turning a little at all the empty brag and bluster and pretence? There is as yet no sure indication as to what will be done with the prohibi tion question. The Legislature does seem to know just what to do or how to do it. The special: committee consisting of one from each coun ty has reported the Childs bill, a synopsis of which we. gave last week, favorably. A minority report has also been made by this same committee. This report wants an election next August to decide the question by- all the people. Some other members, wh o themselves are opposed to prohibition, but who desire to follow the letter of the instructions given in the primary, will not support any but some imprac ticable bill, and oppose all others. The Herald and News has never be lieved. that this Legislature would pass any prohibition bill at all. The Legislature will pass the joint resolution calling a constitutional con vention. It will yet require a vote of the people to say whethir they want it. The only argument we have seen ad vanced in favor of such convention is that the present constitution was made by the radicals. That is a very small matter if the constitution is a good one. If there is no other objec tion to it we had better let it alone. The salaries of the officials of the Alliance have been pretty good, but at the last meeting at Memphis they were reduced and fixed as follows, and they are still pretty good salaries fur which those in the ranks are taxed to pay: President, $2,000 per annum and ex penses; Secretary, $1,500 and $300 for expeses; Lecturer, $1,200 and expenses. So the county Courts bill Is about buried among the catacombs of the leg islative cemetery. It is well It is so. We do not need any rno e offices or officers. We have enough already. The Legislature has not yet reached the bills that are to cause the big fights. The railroad bill and the prohibition bill are yet to be handled. ..OUR COLUMBIA LETTER. hat the Lawmakers are Doing-spiey Debate on the CaiIIDg of a Consttitu tonal Convention. [Correspondence Herald and News.] COLUMBIA, S. C., Dec. 5.-There has been a distinctively business and routine flavor to the proceedings of the General Assem bly during the last w..ek. The hopper is full to overflowing and the grist iscoming out right merrily. The purpose is to rush throng) all minor matters so that the decks will be cleared for the consideration, of the big questions that are pressing upon the State. Thus far the incidents of moment have been very few. It has been mostly work and very little play. To-day the 14-page calendar of the. House was stripped cf forty third reading bills, a half dozen of which have already passed the Senate and are now in the bands of the clerks being made ready for ratification. The Senate has done so much weeding and pruning down Lhat -on Friday it adjourned until uesday in order to let the members be at home on Saleday'and to allow the Januse to catch up and send over some more work. Several attempts were made in the House to follo w suit and take a rest until to-morrow, but - Speaker Jones ntly reminded the members that heewere scores of routine matters that needed immediate attention be fore the House passed to the special orders that have been set for considera tion on Wednesday. The wisdom of his suggestion was felt to-day when the House adjourned after having completed the very necessary formali ties on about sixty bills. The Legislature will without doubt mbmit the question of calling a con stitutional- convention to the people. This was one of the issues that were decided by the'recent State campaign ad the administration members say that they intend to submit the bare proposition to the people unhampered ty any amendments whatever. The opponents of the joint resolution providing for the submission of the guestion to the people say that their bjectons are these: The resolution makes no provision for allowing the people to pass upon the handiwork of such a convention, which, they claim, isan important provision that is always made by the various States. The debate on the resolution in the ouse last Friday suddenly became ery spicy. The casus belli was an mendment offered by Mr. Baeot tbat he work of such convention be sub itted back to the people for ratifica :ion. This resolution was supported y Col. John C. Haskell in a speech urey argumentative and devoid of icy bitterness. Messrs. J. T. Duncan, of New berry, md Wolfe, of Orangeburg, jumsped on the Colonel," as Mr. Duncan called lum, with both feet. Mir. Duncan said ~hat Mr. Haskell knew that the reform nembers had made up theim minds to br'ce the issue, but that he came here ith his plausible arguments in order o divert attention from the fact that 2e was fightingagainst aconstitutional ~onvention, and then he could go back o the people, like some demagogues id, and tell them that he was trying o preserve their rights. "Now, watch :he Colonel," said he, "and vote down my amendment that comes from this iource." Mr. Wolfe charged Col Haskell with osing as a patriot and said that he and 2s faction were vigorously opposing ;his demand of the people with sleight >f-hand tricks. Mr. Blesse tried to save Mr. Wolfe rom what he knew would be the con sequence of his remarks about Mr. Raskell, by interrupting him with some call to order, but Mr. Wolfe had ever "been there" before and kept Mr. Jordan, of Aiken, took a hand n the discussion and said the opposi tion idea was that the new regime coud not .be trusted to make the con titution, and that they were dealing in subterfuges in order to get the minds dition that they could defeat the measure. In his reply Mr. Haskell referred to the young members who had made the insinuations against him as "suckling Solons" and said that he had been falsely charged with motives that he had never dreamed of. He spoke of Mr. Wolfe as the young man whose name he did not know. Mr. Wolfe in terrupted him and disclaimed having made any personal allusions to him. Mr. Haskell protested against the in auguration of this custom of imputing motives to a gentleman. He said that all the wisdom that comes to the Leg islature from youog members is a recog nized fact and that he had never seen the time when the House did not have some young gentleman just from school who could teach the older mem bers everything. The charge that he was w,rking against the good of the State was false "as emphatically as the English language could make it." Mr. Gary, of Abbeville, jumped up to say something about Col. Haskell's reference to "young members" when the latter told him that he referred only to thore who had attacked him. There was a further spat between Col. Haskell and Mr. Duncan until Mr. Duncan was made to understand that Col. Haskell was not the author of the amendment when he begged his par don for having said anything barsh. There came very near being a scene in the House, and Speaker Jones had to tell the disputants that be hoped they would avoid imputingmotives on the floor of the House. The resolution passed its second read ing by a vote of 94 to 16. Perhaps the most vigorous fight the Legislature has ever known- will be the struggle over prohibition. It has been said thatthe Legislature is over whelmingly in favor of prohibition, but there are features already devel oped that go to show that the result is problematical. A great many members came here to vote for some sort of pro hibition bill in deference to the test vote at the primary, but there are indi -cations that the Childs bill, which has been reported favorably, is regarded by them as too sweeping. The antis have taken advantage of this feeling and they have worked with the special object in view to give these doubting ones a chance to get out of voting for prohibition and at the same time to avoid incurring the direct dis pleasure of their prohibition constitu ents. This opportunity is furnished in the Perry bill, introduced by the member from Greenville. It provides that the question be referred to the people at a special election to be held next August, registration not to be a qulification, and if a majority favor it then prohibition, as provided for in the bill sh4ll go into effect. The question then is: Shall we pass the Childs bill, putting the sale of li quor for purpose named only in the hands of dispensary agents or shall we refer the matter to the whole people irrespective of party? When it is remembered that such strong prohibitionists as Mr. Nettles, of Clarendon, are opposed to the Childs bill and will not vote for it, and that several others who have introduced prohibition bills are likewise opposed to it, it will be seen that this whittling down of the question is a distinct ac cession of strength to the anti side. In addition to this the liquor men and their counsel are collecting here from all,parts of the State- and the lobbying that will go on this week will be some thing wonderful to behold. * The majority and minority reports have been made the special order for Wednesday. The dcbate will last all that day and may be continued into *the next. It is safe to say that if the minority report is defeated there will be an avalanche of dilatory motions and the parliamentarians will exhaust all of their skill before they will let the question come to a direct vote. It is said that there are several speeches on the schedule for that day. -The Senate has not tackled the ques .tion yet and is waiting until thbe test is made in the House. The refundment of the State debt is one of the most important questions that is - before the Legislature, but as yet it has scarcely been touched. It is thought that the members are await ing some special message from Gover "or Tiliman on the subject as he has eceived a proposition from Mr. Ryan, of Augusta, which he is said to favor. The only bill that has beer.introduced touching the matter is the joint resolu tion by Mr. Haskell providing that the Secretary of State shall publish notice that all bonds which are not met at maturity will lie, at the option of the holders, extended for four years at the same rate of interest that they now bear. This resolution has been reported un favorably. Col. Has -ell says that the plan was suggested to him by a man who has as high repu tation in financial circles as any :nan in America. His views were that the State would find herself on the 1st or July with her debt matured and without funds sufficient to pay it. This would be insolvency and utterly ruinous to her credit. The State would then find it im possible to sell her bonds at all and the investment of foreign capital in the S'a'e would cease, but that if ?te Gene.ral Assembly should pass a r,-soiutionr dleclaringits intention to meet the oblig:ation)s of the State, and follow iitaop by a practical provi sion to pay t he interest until it can do so, it would h-ire the. eff&ct as n9thing else can Oo (of silucing all charges against her good faith. Railroad legislat;om this year wvill be of genieral intera.et. It is very probable that the bill introduendl by Mr. Jordan, of Aiken, will pat.. The report of the committee hats been delayed by the sickness of "Buneh" Mc-Bee, who is to appear in hebaif of the roads. The conideratio)n of the matter bas been set for Wednesday. The Jordan bill gives the Railroad Commission the power to fix eueh rates as fulv as5 the General Assembly itself could exercise thiem. Violations of the rules anid regulations of the board Is made punishable by a finme of from $1,000 to $5,000. Shipping lines shall be responsible for all freight lost. The pay of the Railroad Commission shall be the same as it is now. There are a half dozen candidates for to be filled this year. I venture the predbction that Messrs. Shigh, of New herry, Stanland, of Berkeley. and Yell deli, of Edgefield, will be the "elect." The biil to repeal the free pas.s law, to prohibi t railronds from charging more than three cents per mile for carrying p?.ssengers, and the one to manke eight hours a day's work in railroad stops have been reported un favorably. The bill to re.quire insurance campa nies to deposit $25,00'0 worta of State bonds has aroused the insuranet e - panies and it is stated that the South eastern Tariff Association is preparing to withdraw most of the companies in the event of the passage of the bill, leaving only enough to do the actual business, and reinsuring outside of the State. T be ind!cations are that some kind of salary reduction bill will pass. As the result of an Alliance caucus Thursday joint resolutions praying Congress to enact a free coinage law and to relieve the people from unwise and class legislation have been in troduced. IThe bill to limit the number of mili tary companies in the State to 100 and the active membership in each com pany to forty members, and providing an insurance feature, has been reported favorably and will be passed without oppsiton.The same is true of the bill tcraeanaval battalion. A bill to allow sheriff's $2 per day and expenses, with a deputy at $1 per day and expenses in extreme cases, for -n-eing lntHs to the naylum passed its third reading in the Hous to-day and was sent over to the Seu ate. A bill to prohibit probate judges from practicing in the courts was killed oi its second reading. The Legislature will have to fill ton vacancies on the board of trustees c the South Carolina College. The onl: aspirants spoken of thus. far are Cole man L. Blease, of Newberry, anc Frank H. Weston, of Columbia. SOME LOCAL LEGISLATION. Most of the bills affecting the Coun ty of Newberry were attended to earl; in the session, and the consequence i that they are among-the very tirst tha will be ratified. Mr. Blease's bill to amend the charte of the town of New berry, so as to allov appeal from the decision of the Mayor' Court, has passed the House, and wil be read the first time in the Senati to-morrow. The same is true of his bill to regu late the number of trial justices in th< county. Its provisions are as folllows "That from and after the passage o this Act there shall be eight Trial Jus tices in the County of Newberry, an< no more, as follows : "One located at Newberry Cour House, who shall receive annual sal ary of one hundred dollars in lieu of al fees in criminal eases ; one located a Prosperity who shall receive one hun dred dollars per annum in lieu of al in criminal cases; and one locatei in each of the following townships viz: Number 11, Number 4, Number 5 Number 6, Number 7, and Number 8 who shall receive an annual salary o: forty dollars each in lieu of all fees ir criminal cases." . The bill to order an election in Nos 10 and 11 townships, on the question o levying a tax for the purpose of clean ing out Cannon's Creek bas also gon over to the Senate. Senator Sligh has introduced bills t< extend the limits of the town of Litth Mountain and to create a new schoo district therein. They have beer favorably reported and are on the Sen ate calendar-for a second reading. J. WILsoN GIBBES. "See Thyself as Others See Thee." To the Editor Herald and News "See thyself as others see thee" was a wise maxim of the ancients, which i might not be amiss for us of the pres ent day in South Carolina to adopt. S( believing, I venture to cite the follow. ing brief editorial remarks from the last number of the New York "Indh. pendent," one of the leading religiou: and educational journals of the country "The tendency throughout the coun. try is to develop the higher institu tions of public education. South Caro lina affords an exception. When the Tillman wing got control of the Dem ocracy and the. State, it reduced the University of South Carolina, in whict the State had taken mo much pride, t< a college;-. and crippled its finances As a result, the number of pupils hai fallen off to only about seventy; anc the Superintendent of Education nov recommends that the college building be turned over to a normal college which can be carried on much cheaper and which would receive liberal aic from the Peabody fund, and which, it the final distribution of that fund would be endowed. This is an unex pected use to which to put the Peabodj fund-to destroy a State University and we are -really surprised to see suc a confession of a policy of State mendi cancy." -It is to be hoped that our rathe. iconoclastically inclined legislators it Columbia may be induced to ponde: well the above cited maxim before tak ing such a long stride backwards, a would be the,adoption of that most un wise recommendation of our State Su perintendent of Education as to ou: State College.
