A. H \PPY ISSUE. It won!?1 be a happy issue of lite political quarrel in South Carolina which should send Wade Hampton back to the Seaate.? New York World. The jury law niuddie is causing a good deal of confusion in the . circuit courts since Judge Gary declared the act of 1000 unconstitutional. In Florence county, where court is holding this week, by common consent of the bar the U teslion was not raised. I?v thi? rutins the business of the coin' will proceed withou' io'errup'ion. It is very amusing and ridiculous to note the attempts of some i>f ihe cIcLauriu newspapers to nuke political capital oat of < oi. v"ilie Jones' proposition to send Wade ilamoton to the United Slates senate without opposition* In polities nowadays anything goes, but the ingenioi attempts of these newspapers to turn the incident to account for their candidate, and their far-fetched efforts to attribute ulterior motives to Col. Jones are too preposterous Jo be taken seriously. In Col. Jones' act we read only the impulse o! a broad nnnded patriotion, actuated by the highest and most disinterested motives. Whether or not his obj?et is att uned, to all unbiased minds Coi. Jones' intention is clearly apparent, ami the whole afl'ji:* will redound to his lasting credit* ^ ?????????? The town council has made a contract with The Record to publish t lie entire proceedings of each meetiug duping the ensuing year, ihis includes an itemized statement of all receipts and disbursemrtits of fund*,, tax arid license schedules, ordinances and, in general, a report of all business trans acted by the council at regular or ailed meetings. Moreover, these meetings are held in open session and anyone interested may attend. The books ?also are open o public inspection. This is all that could possibly be oquired, and henceforth every <*iti and taxpayer can keep mi' iined upon the financial status >t the town and see where every out 2oes that is expended. This is d cidedlv a step forward. We believe, the public, whose interests are in the hands of our city father*, will appreciate it and con :.eiid them accordingly. /. - > :<tic and commeicial .print'ni! executed on short notice at 'lny; 1'KCORD .fficJv i COUNCIL PROCEEDINGS. 1 Regular meeting of council he'd Sep-! j tein her 30, 1W1.
