I ? ? v ^ ! We are not prepared to say, out: doubtless the solicitous white friend or lawyer (preferably a Bieasite in j ?ood standing, we believe) who has j obtained his liberty. And what t guarantee or assurance has the j Governor that these criminals of a c race that is below par at its best j will be on their "good behavior" t ifter he turns them loose? jj Why , we don't know, but we ^ ake it that they are "paroled" un- j ler the supervision in some sort of 8 ;he kind, white friend who has in- t ;erested himself to obtain their n 'reedom. Can it be supposed that j 'Uncle" Josh Appleby will inter- j upt his work on the farm, for in- j. ftance, in the height of the plant- p ng season to get up a petition for 0 he liberation of an able-bodied 0 'nigger buck", or a likely-looking c legro wench, come to Columbia, ^ fo to the penitentiary armed with t i "parole" and get him or her out y ind teli him or her to go about his y >r her business? 5 Or can it be that "Uncle" Josh, ? vith a shrewd eye to business, j akes the grateful bufck or wench 8 lome with him with the under- v itanding that if he or she is not on F lis or her "good behavior" he or t ihe will be returned to the peni- ^ enitary? ? We are very verdant and green n >urselves in these matters, but we I p ear that there is great room and cope in Governor Blease's ideal 'parole system" for convict-graft ng on a scale that would beat the ?ld Georgia convict-lease system, ^ hat created such a stench in that ^ State, out of sight. r Just think of one man having the t >ower to "parole" nine hundred ^ ible-bodied convicts in this day of ^ ierce demand for labor of that sort. a Estimate the value of this labor as ow as one dollar per day for each ionvict. Nine hundred convicts for 3 !00 working days in one year would V imount to $270,000. A quarter of y 1 million dollars could easily be lost j] 0 the State of South Carolina by p 5overnor Blease's pardon and "pa- t ole" policy, whoever might get the' >enefit of it.

But we don't think the "parole system" in South Carolina will survive Governor Blease, his opinion to the contrary notwithstanding. There is a Federal peonage law that 3uch a system might sadly come in conflict with, aod, finally, we don't think it will ensure his election to the United States Senate this year, ?ven if he does turn them all out, as he threatens, because gratitude sf this sort is "a lively appreciation af favors to come", rather than fUnf Uaavi lAtrorl on/^ in kIiuoc tuat uavc utcu cujujcu auu iu :he United States Senate he would lot have been and be able to exercise he pardoning prerogative.?Colum. >ia Record.
