Orangeburg.
We asserted in our last issue that
the natural prerogative of the farmer
was to control the commerce of the
land. So far ns this country is con
cerned one half the speculation of the
land is successful or unsuccessful as
the price of the Southern staple is
high or low. The price of cotton
regulates the commercial value of
every other commodity, whether the
productions of the field, the factory
or stock ; and it is to the interest ol
all the speculators in these depart
ments to keep the first price of that
commodity, which is* the basis of val
ue, as low as possible, because it
leaves a safe margin for the adjust
ment of other prices and because it
affords abundant opportunity for mid
dle men to buy at low and sell at
high rates. Thus between the price
paid tho producer of a commodity
and that paid by the consumer, are
not only good livings made but huge
fortunes arc absolutely built up in a
single season. The price received by
the producer, farmer, being the low
est, is never sufilciently remunerative
to afford more than a bare living ;
and that paid by the consumer, farm
er, being the highest, is always so ex
orbitant as to swallow up the profits,
if there be any, of his first sale. If
this argument bo true, we believe it
to be absolutely impossible for u
farmer to grow rich unless he plays
the part of a speculator and preys
upon his own calling. Under the
present condition of things, he must
be content to remain a hewer of wood
and drawer of water for middle men.
Tbl? conclusion has been recog
nized as a fact for years, and many
devices have been employed to break
down this unreasonable influence, but
every one has failed of success and
will continue to fail untii the margin
of prices between the producer and
consumer is narrowed in euch a way
as to admit of as few sales as possi
ble. A cash bans, from the very na
ture of things, cannot be adopted by
the average farmer ; nor, indeed, will
it prove of any considerable advan
tage to one above the average so far
as accumulating wealth is concerned,
simply because of the difference in
tho price ho receives and that he
pays for a commodity. Some other
device must be adopted before hard
times will cease or the circumstances
of the former become easy. In what
we shall say upon the subject, we do
not claim to originate a remedy but
simply to give expression to views,
we honestly believe, will result in the
desired end If acted upon by the citi
zens of Orangoburg.
To enable the farmer to exercise
his just and natural prerogative the
margin between the prices paid by
the producer and consumer must be
narrowed within reasonable and hon
est limits, which can only be done by
uniting the three classes of produc
tion* io which speculations are mostly
practiced* tho Odd, factory and stock,
into one department, and by the
farmers themselves becoming the
owners. This scheme combines two
or three of the essential advantages
of commerce and vvilj enable the pro
ducer to occupy one of the positions
heretofore occupied by middle men
and to reap the advantages of that
position. First ho sells, if a cotton
planter, his staple to tho factory of
Which he is, jn part, an owner ; sec
oudly, as part owner lie manufactures
his own products and effects tho sec
ond sale to tho merchant, and thirdly,
es consumer ho buys directly from
himself as producer, Ilms bringing in
tho closest possible proximity the two
pi ices which enables him to reap the
entire advantage of his production.
The enterprise in which Mr. Gco.
H. Cornelson is about to engage, is
a God-send for our county, because
it brings one of the articles by which
the speculator has been accustomed
to rille the purse of the producer, in
immediate contact with the cane
grower. The syrup, over and above
what may bj necessary for home con
sumption, is sold at the refinery and
sugar is cither bought or given in ex
change. This saves the Orungeburg
planter the large margin in which
the speculators from Louisiana to the
j Orangeburg merchant manipulates
fortunes at the expense of the pro
ducer.
The Tannery recently established
by Mr. Harpin Riggs, in the article
of leather, so extensively used on
every farm, brings the price received
by the producer and that paid by the
consumer in almost immediate con
tact. The same reasoning obtains in
the cases of the buggy and wagon
factories of Messrs. P. Doyle, Robert
Wiles, and II. Riggs. The first price
paid for the article is by the consum
er. Honesty and fair dealing In each
of these cases demand Vnat the price
paid by the consumer should only ex
ceed that received by the producer by
the actual co^t, of manufacture and a
reasonable per cent. gain. This
would evidontly save to the planter
the diffcronco between tho prices paid
now and thoso he would pay if the
scheme should be ^adopted and hon
estly carried out. He would by it
possess a power in dollars saved, that
would enable him to hold his produce
or to throw it on the market only nt
remunerative prices and thus control
at least the local commerce.
All enterprise.! of this kind require
a local expenditure of a large amount
of money for hands employed which
would necessarily be consumed in the
town trade and work no inconsidera
ble advantage to home interest of
every kind.
We candidly submit these views,
crude as they may be, to our peoplo
with the hope of at least directing at
tention to a subject of vital impor
tance not only to the farmers but
merchants of Orangeburg. For next
to one's interest in his own posses
sion, is the interest he feels in the
prosperity of bis county and town
and the happiness of his people.
Congress.
Sinco the veto of the Army bill by
President Hayes, both the Democrat
ic and Republican parties have been
skirmishing for position ; the one how
best to overcome that officer's opposi
tion, and the other how to support
him. Caucuses of both parties have
been held and a policy determined
upon to regulate their future action.
The Democratic members have decid
ed to seperatc the obnoxious meas
ures from the appropriation bills, and
pass them in single bills withholding
the former until the latter will have
been signed by the President. This
wise decision proves to the country
that the Democratic members do not
desire to stop the wheels of govern
ment but simply to legislate in such
a way as to insure the passage of
measures they believe to be beneficial
to the whole country. The issue is
now distinctly drawn and the Demo
crats cannot afford to back down
and, we believe, will not. The veto
is an unqualified assertion of the
President and the Republican party
of the right to use armed troops at
the polls while the action of tho Dem
ocrats openly deny such a right.
Wc have the assurance of Senator
Hampton that the Democrats have
lost not an inch of ground but
have rather gained by forcing the
President and his party to take their
present position before the people.
He says the "Democrats are to-day
better organized and are moving bet
ter together than at any time" since
they have been in control. This is
certainly encouraging news to the
entire country, because both the peo
plo and the press, with few exeep*
Lions, have expressed and advocated
the belief that it would be ruinous for
the party to back nt this or any other
stage of the contest, and that it is
the duty of the Democrats in Con
gress to stand firmly up to the policy
and fight tho battle to the end. If
tho President, in maintaining his
wild opposition to the will of the ma
jority, sees lit to veto tho seperatc
bills, tho only course left tho Demo
crats will be to adjourn Congress
forthwith until the regular session.
No compromise is admissible now
and should not for n moment be con
sidered,
School Convention.
We call Ihn attention cf the teach
ers and friends of education to tho
communication of Commissioner I).
L. Connor, in another column. This
is a movement that might be made to
contribute no mean share to tho edu
cational interest of our county', and
it becomes the duty nf every one, who
has children eiitr?s ? I to his care, to
give tho matter the most serious
thought. School teaching as it
stands now is conducted by no sys
tem save that of each individual
teacher, and with Jittlo reference to
the advancement of tho pupil except
in the individual school. Toxt-books
change with tho school and every
teacher practices a different method
of instructing ; whereas both tho text
books and the method of imparting
knowledge ought to bo the sanio in
every school.
Indeed the proper advancement of
the pupil demands that the system of
leaching be so arranged as to admit
one to pass from one school to an
other, as convenience may require,
without interruption in tho course of
study. To effect this important ob
ject, there must be a free discussion
upon, tho various methods practised
and the books in use by those en
gaged in leaching and a cordial adop
tion of that method and of those
books adjudged to be best suited to
the needs of our county.
Mr. Connor has made the initiato
ry step and it remains for the com
mitteo to carry tho project to a final
success. So far as the editor of this
paper is concerned he is willing to act
in any capacity where good may be
accomplished and we feel assured that
tho other gentlemen named will do
tho same. Therefore, let the chair
man notify his committee of tho time
and a meeting will be had.
The Thirteenth at Columbia.
Unveiling the Confederate. Monu
ment at Columbia on the 13th instant
bids fair to be a most interesting oc
casion, not only for the citizens of
the capital, who will reap valuab'e
benefits from the gathering of so
large a crowd, but to the visitors
themselves who will enjoy the privi
lege of witnessing the completion of
ono of the noblest works to which
the love and tho energies of the wor
men of our Stalo could be devoted.
Every arrangement is being perfect
ed to make the ceremonies imposing
and grand, and the occasion itself of
the greatest interest to our people,
the recollection of which shall bo as
lasting as the marble monument
which perpctutcs tho memory of our
noble, dead. Senator Wade Hamp
ton will preside over the ceremonies,
Senator M. C. Butler as Chief Marsh
al will direct the military and Hon.
John S. Preston, one of the greatest
living orators of our State, will de
liver the address.
Charleston City Council.
It seems that the Charleston city
council occupies the position of a
house divided against itself. The
proceedings on Tuesday indicated
anything but a commendable harmo
ny and such epithets as "political
tricksters," such threats as "I will
have vou arrested," such expressions
as "you can try it," and such conduct
as adjourning the council unceremo
niously and stampede of its members,
reminds one very forcibly of the
palmy days of Radical county con
ventions. Wc see no reason why
such gentlemen as compose tho city
council of Charleston may not trans
act their business without such pub
lic manifestations of bitterness.
Court.
The Court of General Sessions was
convened on Monday last at 10
o'clock, Judge T. B. Frnscr presid
ing. The charge of the Judge to the
Grand Jury was characteristic of the
man ; short yet comprehensive enough
and forcible yet clear upon ever point
he touched. The dignity of the bench
and the reputation of the South Car
olina judiciary are fully maintained
by Judge Frnscr, and his deportment
oil ns welt as on the bench commands
' the respect ot both citizens and law
yers. At tho rc-asscmbling of the
Court at 3 o'clock, Solicitor Jervey
said ho would continue the political
cases unless the parties were anxious
for trial, which happened not to he
the case in a single instance. Per
haps they aro impressed with the
opinion that their cases will come un
der the proposed compromise, and
they will be allowed to go unwhipped
of justice for their glaring violations
of law and decency. This may be,
but it can never destroy the sting of
a guilty conscience.
An examination of tho work of the
Court revealed a light criminal dock
et, and even the cases to be tried,
ore of little importance more than
that attached to general crime.
The following cases were disposed
off;
The Stute vs. Ivan Corlcy, larceny
of cow, G?lUy.
The Stnto vs. Rias Feldor, grand
larceny. Guilty.
The State vs. Caleb McKilvey,
larceny. Guilty.
The Stnto vs. lt. F. Porter and
Lewis Funning, larceny of livo stock.
Not guilty.
The State vs. Archy Giceu, grand
larceny, Guilty.
The Stato vs. L. Lee, grand lar
ceny. Guilty.
The State vs. Wesley Washington,
grand laiceny. Guilty.
The State vs. Albert II. Brndhnm,
larceny of livo stock. Not guilty.
The prisoners were sentenced on
Wednesday to various terms in the
penitcntiry, none of which exceeded
ono year.

Of the report of Use grand jury we
mako the following synopsis jbr the
benefit of our rendors : It was roc
ommcndod that furniture and a safo
bo furnished-the Cieik of Court's
office nnd that of Master; that the
fence around the jail bo repaired, also
that the Court House grounds be in
closed ; that the club house in Lyons
Township be &old ; and that the plas
tering of the Court room be repaired.
The poor were reported as properly
cared for and their wants supplied.
The county at large was congratula
ted because so few cases of a criminal
character were before the court, which
indicated a healthy condition of af
fairs undpr Democratic rule. In con
clusion the jury complimented His
Honor, Judge Fraser, for the urbani
ty, nbility and kindness exhibited by
him at this term of the court. The
report was short, forcible and suffi
ciently comprehensive, and rellccts
groat credit on the gentlemen com
posing that important bod}',
Newspapers.
The press has a grand mission, it is
said ; right grandly they should per
form it. It will not do to blur the
record by idle words, cheap criticism
and hasty judgments. The people
get the news, and largely their opin
ions, especially upon politics, from
the papers, weekly and daily. This
involves great responsibilities, and
should be met in the broadest sense.
Papers will cling to their party, and
wc fear hug two often the shallows
and shoalb of the editor's ignorance
and prejudices. It is a sad commen
tary on the press that it is difficult to
got the truth^in politics from the pa
pers of cither side, aud it is sadder
still that any man should prostitute
his high place to selfish and individ
ual aggrandizement. The mission
will not be reached in this way. The
power of the press is tremendous, and
sometimes we think almost fearful to
comtcmplale. It must run into per
sonal nnd partisan channels. We
rejoice in the growth of independent
newspapers, politically, and we shall
further rejoice that every newspaper
in the country shall meet all issues
from the standpoint of honesty and
honor.
