Our Columbia Dailies, tbe. Sfate aiul Register, ought to be put under n paece bond, at least for the summer, and not be allowed to risk their pre vious lives by quarreling when the mercury in the thermometer is try ing to work out of tho upper end of the tube. They are in imminent dan ger of suffering from a first class sunstroke, by overheating themselves in such weather as this, and if they don’t recognize t(ie danger they ought Jo call in a inedjpal expert and fol low his advice- It would be infinitely better for Jjoth of them to stop hitting at each pther, and devote their attention solely to the task of fiirpishjng the latest and inosf important news to jtheir readers. The one that accom plishes this will easily forge ahead of the other, mid that too In an open honorable w ay. THE SCTIOQ^ JOCRPL CASE. '■’hat vigorous and uncompromis ing paper, tl)e Statp, wgp fhe first to pall attention to tips private enter prise which it was proposed to keep alive at the expense of the State; and the mere fact that, so fay {ig We have observed, not a single paper id the State has a word hi BftJ i n defense qf the scheme, |s pretty conclusive proof that the attempt to make the public support a private enterprise, is sim ply indefensible, Even the most rabid supporters of }he present administration sustain the State in its depqppjatiflU of this nice little game, Thp State has done a good thing in calling attention to this, and we hope that the partisan papers, who take such delight in abusing that journal, will be a little less critical in the future. In this pase at least, thp reformprs will be reformed. THE JONES ftllipDEft < 4SE. if the jury had acquitted Jones, the family exterminator, it would not have been- a much greater traves ty on justice than his conviction of manslaughter was; for unless the pase has been wilfully misrepresen ted, but one verdict was possible by a jury that had any regard for their paths, and that would have been murder. It is just such miscarriages r uf justice that make men losp retpect for the law, and gives them some apparent excuse for swift and speedy ^punishment irt case of grave crimes. The Jaw itself is not at fault, but the trouble is that public opinion is at fault about the matter; for if it were not that there is so little regard for human life in our State, juries would be forced, by a sentiment they could not withstand to bring the guilty to justice. If the jury in this case were to meet with their |lue share of public scorn, we would never witness another such verdict. Everybody in the State is looking forward with great interest to the poming discussion, on the Sub-Treas ury scheme, between Ben Terrell and Governor Tillman. If Mr. Terrell expects to have it all his own way, he is simply making a great mistake for, putting aside the merits of the ease, he will find himself pitted against a man who is unquestionably his superior iutollpetnally, who is quick and ready in debate) and whose dauntless courage no pne pa 11 deny. Mr. Terrell may have the pojiqlar yido, but he won’t wan’t to meet any more such opponents as Governor .Tillman or he \yill get tired of the whole businpgy. If we wagfe to induce peoplp v with money to invest in the S^ate and as sist in developing its resources; we will have tq stop the business of try ing to ovpr tax the capital when it j,'«ts here. The farmers, along with Vvcy one else, are largely benefitted by the Railroads, yet they -arc made to believe that the'ltailroads are their worst enemies, and should be treated jtccordingly. Will somebody please Calculate what it would cost the Na tional Government to buy up all the Railroads and telegraph lines in the pouutry, and then show where the money is to come from to pay for them. Of course if this were carried put the Government would have to construct Railroads, and would be pxpected to build thenj where they would not pay one tenth of their running expenses. The Best and the Cheapest. Mr. E. II. Mitcham, Rosetta, Ky., writes: “Have been selling Hughes’ Tonic for years. It is the best qnd cheapest remedy for chills and fever, curing several cases with one bottle. Hughes’ Cough Syrup is a splendid remedy. They- are honest and valu able remedies. ’ Sqid by Druggists.
