THE 2tKW8 AND UOUBIERS
TUITOUSINSULT.
Tbs reaitlsut oorrtispoud^at at
The hewt and Courier trl”gruplied
to his joarual on Tuesday last a
com ct account of the result of tbr
Karla survey, and the young mao
who writea tbe beadliuea in the
bonis office gave tbe articln tbe
following caption io yesterday’s
paper: ^KickingagaiuatlJirision.
Darlington Oonnty bas itaeif Sur
veyed Twenty-Four Miles Sbort of
tbe Conatitutioual Limit.”
Libs n 11 great metiopolitan
dailiea, Tho Newt and Courier baa
eneniiea, and the number of them
ia annanally large in this County,
owing to tbe impression which pre
vails tbat on more oceasioos titan
one tbe great joarnml bss not treat
ed Darling*on falily. B* Using
bow mocb good it bus accomplished
in the State, we bare systematic
eally defended it for two years
past, ridiculing ikons who talked
about ita “bigb-and mighty” man
new, nod doing all io our power to
advance its material interests. Aa
ws are friendly to it, therefore, on
general principles, ws do not see
any reason why we should not say
io s calm, dignified way, tbat while
ws have often obnerved that it took
■idea against Darlington on this
new County question, ws were no*
P r ®P* r «d for the cruel, wanton aod
grataitioue iosolt contained ia tbe
headlines given above. The Newt
•ad Courier ia a great power in tbe
Stats aod headlines are by no
means insignificant instruments of
power; so that throughout tbe
length and breadth of Sooth Caro*
linn todav there goes out this
croaking libel against oor people.
That we are “kicking ag ioat
division” ia simply absurd; no
■ore, no lee*. Ever since the pas
sage of the aew County bill by the
Legislature, tbs people of Darling
ton have quietly accepted tbe re
sult. The survey was made in or
der that we might claim our own,
aad without any expectation or
desire of defeating the new County
project, Tbe Constitution gives ua
the right to 626 square mi e« and
we had tbe same justification for
ooontiog them tbat The Newt and
Courier »j*a Jut coanting the tec
dollars recti red from a patron for
one year’s aobaciiption to tbe
“daily,” and the same diahotieHt
motive would be apparent ia either
case should no*incorrect count be
purposely made. Moreover, tbe
Legislature Act, after sta ing tbat
Florence County is to be establish
ed, adds: provided Darlington
Conn y shall ha e been found after
a survey to contain 625 square
milea. Therefore, in conducting
the survey, the people of Darlington
were simply exercising a right
under tbe law.
If Tke Newt and Conner was ig
norant of the faeta which we have
mentioned it abouid inform itself
more thoroughly hereafter, or it
will soon cease to be regarded as a
great metropolitan daily ; if it was
not ignorant of them, then it was
guilty of something worse. Come,
brother, ao explanation ia in order
“HER PEOPLE ARK OUR PEOPLE.
The result of the recent survey
of Darlington Conuty showing that
it lacks the Constitutional area by
twenty-fonr square milea compli
cates matters considerably, aod the
responsibility tor U should be pise*
ad where it belongs, namely, upon
tke Legislature of Booth Carolina,
▲t the time of the passage of tbe
Aet creating tbe new Coonty, the
attention of the members of that
body waa called to tbe (aet tbat
serious doubt existed aa to whether
Darlington would retain sufficient
territory, and they were urged to
take ae action in a matter involv
ing to grnve a constitotional right
witbont first settling the point at
inane. It was impossible, however
Io make them listen to reason, ana
un tne result of their exoras of seel
the pffogrees of the new Coonty a ill
be seriously retarded for nearly n
year. Of eonrae, when tbe Legis-
latere aeaemblre, stepa will be tak
en nteece to remedy the trouble,
aod to eetabliah Florence County
on such n basin as will ensaro ita
fa tare proeperity. In tbe mean
time, tbe precise in tbe Aet having
failed, aad tbo Act itself thereupon
w>ming of no effect,. it is bard to
probable tbat a test ease will bo
made io the Courts before tbe f<n
spective relations of the two Conn-
ties can be eBtaldisbcd.
While we do not feel tbat Dar
lington is in any way to blame for
the petition in wbu h ae Hie ull now
ph-ced, it is Io be hoped tlutt onr
people h| | do hII in their power to
allay feeling between tbe twoCoun
ties, Mud to diminish ibe difficulties
which conliout them both It has
been a matter of considerable sur
prise to us to know that I here were
some who took umbrtge at our ex
ercising the tight of making a sur
vey, which the Legislature, and the
Constitution itself, bad most unuds
taksbly given us. It is still mote
to be wondered at tbat our friends
acrosM the line should have to b t-
teily op|»oaed os in this matter,
for it was OMt ursI that I bey would
wish to have settbd lor hII time a
question which would otherwise be
a constant source of annoyance to
the infant County. While we fear
tbat tbe statement will not be ie-
ceived in that sincerity in which it
is made, we cannot refrain from
again assuring our friends tbat we
advocated tbe survey not with a
view to inflicting injury upon tbe
new County, but solely iu order
that we might maintain oor rights
under tbe Constitution. He who
does not stand np for his privileges
under tbe law ia less than a mau,
a fact which none recognise more
forcibly than our gallant Florence
friends.
The Legislature will pass next
fall a law validating all tbe acta of
tbe Florence County, aod will pro.
vide io some way for giving her the
proper area without interfering
with the rights of Darlington. Aa
we aaid when the snrvey was first
proposed, it ia full time that this
oeatroveray should cease. There
shonld be between tbe people of
tbe two Counties the closest feel
ings of friendship and aff< ctioo ;
•‘her people are our p* ople” and
many of onr interests are common,
if, therefore, there should arise by
any chance hereafter one wbo is
opposed to the new County, Thk
Dablinoton Nbws will lead tbe
van which goes to tbe trout to crash
him out.
THE NEW COUNTY JAIL-
The new jail will afford ample sc
oommodalious foi all the prisoners
of the County, with proper facili
itiea lor separating tbe sexes and
keeping the youthful criminals
away from those who are hardened
id crime. Aaa general rule the
occupants of jails are those who are
committed fur trial, and since they
are regaided in the ejes of the law
“aa innocent until proven guilty,’
it is contrary to both tbe lett< r and
the spirit of the law to subject them
to sneb terrible discomfort and deg
radation as befits the courioi. It
is gratifying, therefore, to know
that the arrangements of the new
jail will be constructed with a view
to tbe mitigation ol the e evils, it
is Mid, moreover, that tbe arrhi-
teeto'e of the new building will be
sneb m to add greatly to the beauty
of tbe surroundings rather than to
detract from them, and tbat ita
front portion ia to be devoted to a
handsome residence for th- Sheriff,
wbo will thus be on the spot all
tbe time and have the personal su
pervision of the prison -re. To all
of this we must add tbat the build
ing will be fitted up with tbe most
improved sanitary arrangements,
while the manner of ita construe-
tion will not only make it fire proof,
bnt will render e«ca|»es well nlgb
impo.-sible. As may be foreseen,
in order to obtain a building wbieb
would combine ull of these quali
ties, a considerable outlay ot money
waa oeces*aiy, and the County
Commissioners Lave accordingly
agreed to pay about leu tboa-
Mud dollars lor it While we would
be the last to uphold a needless
expenditure of tbe public funds, we
any onh« sitatmgly tbat it is of tbe
utmost importance tbat a county
jail which is to remain tor several
generations should posse** all the
advantages enumerated above, and
we therefore consider the action ot
the Board of County Commission
ers as eminently wise and proper.
We regret that we cannot com
mend with eq* al be. rtiue'is the ae
ieetioa of the site which has been
determined upon. In former days
the objectionable features which
attcoded the location of tbe jail on
the Public Squat e were of such
constant occurrence as to afford
onr citixeus and property holders
daily cause for regret. When a
considerable portion of tbe bnsi
m part of the towa was recently
destroyed by Are, car people
for its loeation. That the new
building will be of rather ao orna
mental character, and that it is to be
situated some distanos farther book
on tbe lot than tbe old jail site, are of
bat tbe very smallest consideration
in comparison with tbe many and
■erious disadvantages in-eparably
connected with its being located
any where wit bin range of the Pub
lie Square. It ia greatly to be re
gretted, as we have remarked be
fore, tbat I he reasonable wishes of
tbe entire people of the town could
not bare been complied with,
aod tbe action of tbe Hoard will, we j
fear, cause injury to the business
interests of Darlington for a ban
dit d years to come.
A TERRIBLE DELUGE
Tbe greatest flood tbat baa ever
swept over this continent brought
desolation and death to a large
atea of conutty, particularly in
Pennsylvania, on Friday last. Tbe
scenes ot devastation are beyond
the powers of description. Houses
towns aod people were swept away
by the rustling waters. The town
of Johnstown, Pennsylvania, was
completely destroyed and many
otbets were badly damaged. It is
impoMible to name the amount of
property completely rained, bat
the uomber of livea lost ia reckoned
from ten to twelve thousand. Ad
ded to the fury of tbe waves, fire,
with ita awfnl tongue oi destrne
tion, bore down upon tbe hapless
victims and many wbo were saved
from a watery grave found death
in the banting elements. Fathers
lost thsir children, wiles their
husbands and little babes theii
mothers; few indeed were tbe
lamiliee that death did not visit.
Tbe waters have subsided and those
who still live are baffling with the
flames or, perhaps, endeavoring to
find tbe remains of some dear one-
Moat of tbe bodies have been burn
ed or bruised beyond recognition
and the search for the d^ad ia har
rowing and heart rending iu the
extreme. The one ray of sunshine
upon ibe dreary scene is the prompt
res|>cuse of the whole country to

demand and will soon order 20.000
more. Now is the time to obtain
tbe bagging, as no orders will be
reoeived later. Tbe cotton bag
ging will coat 121 cents per yard
sod with freight 13 cents. Tbe
jute would have undoubtedly coat
mom hot for tbe noble fight the
farmers are making and as already
stated, many of tbe maiiuracturer*
have agreed to pay 10 cents per
boudred more for the staple wben
it is packed in cotton. Tke use o'
eotton bagging will consume one
hundred thousand bales, and hence
tbe mcreuaed demand will make
tbe prices for cotton tise. Feeling
tbat tbe appeal will not lie iu vain,
the committee urge the faimeis to
boy immediately all that is n>-ika-
ssry for use.

FUN FOR THE FARHKRS
Tbe American Cotton Seed Oil
Company intend to erect a waie-
house at tlie depot, just north ot
the pump. Tbe wotk will la-ciu
imuodia‘ely, aa the plans have
la-en made and tbe contract tor
bn liling has been awarded. Mr.
H. K. DeLurme will be the local
manager. That the saving of tbe
cost of fieigbt by meat s of the or-
gams* i ion of a local oil mill company
is grea', is evidenct <1 by tbe fact
that be railroad authorities have
donated tbe building site to the
American Company, li >pmg thus
to b ml fir ie lit f <r them Iroui tbe
sot rounding chantry. Wherever a
local company is fotmedin tbe
State this powerful American Com
pany immediately crecta a ware
house with the purpose ot crashing
on’ ibe borne enterprise by paying
higher prices lor cotton seed. This
is the game they are now playing-
We predict, however, tbat their
task will not be as eat>y as they
imagine, for the borne company is
here to stay. Having just complet*
ed arrangements to erect warehous
es at Timmonsville and Society Hill
fur baying and storing Med, it is
ready to give as high prices lor cot
ton seed a« any competitor. More
over there must be a stopping point
somewhere in the competition for
tbe purchase of seed, and when
tbat |M»iut ia reached tbe companies
will still be on iqnal ground and
will offer tbe same inducements. It
will naturally follow then tbat tbe
meicbantsaud farmers will patron
ise a home industry iu preferauce
to ft foreign one which ia at the
bead of tbe great “Cotton Seed
Trast.” Be this as t may, one
thing is assured, namely, that tbe
farmer by this competetion will
obtain th products of these tudos
tries at the lowest pos-ihte figures,
and will, nt the same time obtain
higher prices for bis seed than ever
before. Tbe fight will be an excit*
log one, and will te watched wi’h
interest.
The Colored Church War
Editor Darlington Newt:
Pie ace allow me space in yonr
valuable paper to correct come false
statements concerning our cburcu.
We, as Deacons o( Betbesda Bap
tist Cburcb, desire to set ourselves
right before tbe public. There has
been considerable confusion in onr
church tor some time; let ns hear
the troth about this church trou
ble. The trouble is between the
members and the pastor Tbe mi
nority of the church relieved the
pastor of his position and request
ed him to resign without giving
notice to the majority of the fact.
So this is where the fight began. It
was stated in yonr Imc issue tbat
we were tnrned cat of office as dea
con*. We deny tbe assertion ; we
have never been turned out toy the
ungority ot tbe ebnrch. We alsa
deny working np tbe members iu
our interest in the swamps. Tbe
truth is tbe majority of tbe church,
are not satltfied with tbe tieatmeut
ot tbe pastor. Wo tm*t that.tbe
time is not far distunt when* we
shall have peace and quiet in onr
church. Thos. McIntosh.
