DARLINGTON, S. C.
Friday, March^lT, 1893.
We aro truly gltul that t!ic IStatt
bonds' have all been placed, but re
gret that a lower rate of interesi
could not be obtained. We are 1101
sufficiently posted to express a very
decided opinion, but think the Gov
ernor did the best he could iindci
th« circumstance s.J
The chairman of the board oi
railroad commissioners must be «
wonderful worker if he can span
time from his public duties to man
age the oliiee of secretary of tin
national alliance. Colonel Duiicm
was tip to within a short while ago
if ho does not still hold the place
State agent of the alliance. As i
mutUr of curiosity we would like ti
know to which he gives the best por
tion of his time, the State or the
alliance.
It h reported that i’resideut Cleve-
laud hat stated that he would not
appoint any of the newspaper fra*
tensity to office under his sulmiuis-
Indio;]. If this report be true, then
ho has paid the editors a very high
compliment, in that he places such
a high estimate im their servicet
that he thinks they cannot be epareu
from their work. Of course tin
newspapers are too modest to claim
that they elected Mr, Cleveland, but
it is pretty certain that he could not
have been elected without their help,
and this being the case it is very
natural for him to think that the
editors cun be of more service to him
In their present position? than m
government officials. Where is the
mail, anyway, who would exchange
the privilege of saying what he
pleases for the uncertain tenure of a
tafliUCttl office.

extremely difficult, if not impossible,
to hud a single well implored farm
1ft the State that 'uld be bought
for the valthttioh t , isjmt upon u
for taxation, wherea*, on the oii.vi
hand, the dtlfereut railroad corpora
tion# we are pretty sure, would be
very willing to sell out at the iwsesseu
valuation of their property. This
mere statement so clearly demon
strates the fact that the railroads
liave been over-assessed that no argu
ment is needed to prove the justice
ymt etreugtii of their position. Even
if it oouiu be shown that the roads
were worth every dollar of the assess-
uitut, they could still make good
thvir claim of over-assessment, it
It not a ijuestiou of politic* or the
amount ot money the roads make o;

lias (he Press, Been Subsidized^
It ha-s become very much the
fashion with politicians, and in some
oases with the papers themselves, to
lay the blame for most of the polical
and social evils uiwlcr which wc suffer
to what they are pleased to call a
subsidized press, und speak of the
good days of the past when news
papers were independent and occupied
i conspicuous place as the moulders
>f public opinion. Thx statement,
o utterly incapable of truth, has only
gained credence by constant rrptition,
md would need no denial but for the
inforlunate fact that there are some
papers that try always to be on the
drong side, and are ready to endorse
my measure, irrespective of its merits,
just as soon as they are convinced of
its popularity. These, however, are
exceptions to the general rule, and
(here has never been a time, in the
whole history of the country, when
die newspapers have been as bold and
inceasing in denouncing political
md social wrongs than at the present
dine, and there is no man, it matters
mt what may be bis wealth, official
»r social position, but what stands in
ivve of the all powerful influence of
lie newspapers. It would be im-
lossible for any officials to be more
irmly entrenched in power than nas
he corrupt Tweed Ring, of New
fork, who openly boasted that they
jonId not lie driven out of office as
song as they had the counting of the
.oles, but everyone is familiar with
l.o result of their defiance, and what
.vas the principal instrument of their
lownfall. The Times, assisted by a
•ood many of the other city papers,
nude war upon the Ring, and despite
Ii reals amt offers of immense bribes
xepl up the fight until every one of
he gang was in prison or a fugitive
from justice.
There are hundreds of papers in the
country whose influence or silence no
gold could purchase, and the number
if these is Increasing und not dimin
ishing as some of our political agita
tors would have us to believe* (State-
incuts of this character are made
merely for political effect or perhaps
the agitators who make them imagine
that other people could be us easily
••ought a# themselves. The field for
usefulness in journalism is being
constantly widened, and sonic of the I
best talent in the country is employed !
in this profession, and that too of
men whose moral rectitude is above
reproach. The men who so con
stantly deride the ncwspupirs and.
who »o vainly try to undermine their
influence, arc t he very ones n ho stuiul
most in dread of these silent but
irresistible messengers,
