W?Mi Our Editors Say. .. . . -Hugh. L- Farley. Abbeville Medium. Capt. Hugh L. Farley has addressed, an open letter ta the -'Democracy of the State', criticising the action of the Ex* ecutive Committee ia the selection of a nominee for Adjutant and Inspector Generals "Io th?-State Convention he vas defeatedHForvfheplac?' by six votes and at the death of Gen. Manigault, the selection devolved upon the State Ex? ecutive Committee. Fifteen members attended the called - meeting and select? ed Capt. Mi Ii. Bonham, Jr. ?Capt. -Farley and his friends thought as a matter of right and justice that he shonld bare been selected as he was the second* choice of the Convention. We coincide with this view although Capt. Bonham will make an excellent officer. We cannot conceive bow any other view co old prevail and "we - believe- this is the universal sentiment of the people. Capt. "Farley presents his case very forcibly and his argoment cannot be controverted. Be lays the blame chief? ly upon the Charleston members of the committee and speaks harshly of them. We think tai? was ill-advised and we regret it exceedingly. The Prostrate Prince. -: Columbia Regieler. There io no mystery about the abdi? cation of Alexander, When his seizure "aurd deportation from his dominion by Russia a emisaries failed to inflame all Europe, the tale was already told, and doubtless if the troth were known he was-only permitted tb return in order that he should formally abdicate. The meaning of the whole chapter of the Balkan bother is that Kassia has never .tet ga her. grim grip, on Turkey's throat,-and either ene of two things mast transpire to prevent her from be? ing fcise mistress not only of the Balkan barrier but the Bos poor us gate and the Dardanelles. Either the Kassian em? pire itself must fall at the hands of the Nihilist or all the European States must enter io to an enduring alliance against it.. . So far, the great Cossack empire steadily and inexorably advances East? ward and Southward The dismemberment of Turkey has long? been regarded as only a question offline. It is now eqi?cn?ty narrowing do^to finaf retalts with Turkish do? minion in Europe. The formation of the Balkan States Was only a tempo? rary makeshift of tho great powers to balk Kassia, lt would seem that Ger? many is unwilling to take ap arms to preserve the creature of the great pow. ers which they patched up upon the heels of Kassia's victorious march on Turkey-.* -Austria; too, may share the spoils, with- Kassia when the Turkish' dismemberment comes, England's jealousy of Russian domination in the East means nothing, unless the other great powers consent to combine with her. ^?&iay~ Be 'that "Germany and Austria see that Russia's seizure of Turkey is a foregone conclusion, and find no sound reason in going to war with their powerful Northern neighbor in order to pot off for a few years the in?vitable. It loofcs now as if the pe? riod ?3 rapidly approaching when Tur? key in Europe will be obliterated and cease to occupy a place on the maps. The Misery of Charleston. St. T. Sun. It was a week last night since the first and great earthquake at Charles? ton, and yet to-day the condition of th? city is about as it was on the morning of the first of September. The subse- I qaent shocks, though comparatively slight, have been numerous enough to keep the unhappy inhabitants io a state of nervous excitement. The work of reparation has been delayed both by lack of capital and fear that renewed i convulsions woa*d destroy whatever might be accomplished. . It must be borne in mind that Charleston overthrown by an earth? quake cannot properly be compared with Boston and Chicago devastated by fire j The loss in the Sonthera city is a total loss, while that of Chicago by the fire of Oct. 9,1871, and of Boston by the fire of Nov. 9, 1872, was largely recov? ered on insurance, which does not pro? vide against an 'act of God' like an earthquake. Extensive as they were, the Boston and Chicago conflagrations also spared great parts of those cities, while the destruction in Charleston has been general. If that city had been burned down on the night of the 31st of August it would have been comparatively a minor mis? fortune. Thc buildings would have been leveled to the ground, insurance money would have poured in, and the work of reconstruction could have gone on rapidly. But the earthquake has compelled it to do doable labor, and altogether at its own cost. It must tear down as well as build up, so that the city will not be chargeable with lack of enterprise if it is far slower in rising -from ruins than Boston and Chicago were. The Northern cities, moreover, were rich, while Charleston was impoverish? ed by the war, and when its great ca? lamity came was only beginning to re gain its old prosperity. Boston, espe? cially was full of spare capital, but the number of men in Charleston with any considerable accumulations is exceed? ingly small. The great mass of prop? erty owners have little or no money to put into new buildings, and therefore the capital required for reconstruction and restoration must come mainly from outside, and at a time when, perhaps, its tendency will not be toward thc un? fortunate town. It should bc remembered, too, that out of a total population of 60,145 in 1885, the negroes numbered 32,540 to 21.605 white^and that a?c?rdinly the vast majority of* the people, ?re unable to do anything for themselves in the way of rebuilding, so that the town will be long io rising from its ruins, unless extraordinary measures of relief from outside are devised and adopted. Alexander's Abdication. Columbia Record, There ts no room to doubt that the people of Bulgaria want Prince Alexan? der to rule over them. This being the case, and the government of that coun? try being monarchical in form, ?they ought to have-their way. ?The-only reason-to the contrary is that the rulers bf Kassia do not favor it. These rulers have ne right nor title to govern their own country except that of power, pure and simple, and for them to interfere ' to compel an abdication on the part of Prince Alexander is a sheer piece of usurpation, national brigandism. _Prob 'ably^theiBuIgarians will ultimately be. reduced to subjection by the iron des? potism that blights all Kassia, and the interests of dynasties and m ins tries will compel a general acqutesence, for the wishes and the welfare of the masses of the people pass for very little in that part of the world. But it is a burning shame, nevertheless. . Spartanburg Herald. Col. Chas. H. Simonton has been chosen U. S. District Judge instead of Judge Bryan, whose resignation is an noanced in our news columns. Col. Simonton is one of the ablest lawyers of the Charleston Bar, and his appoint? ment will give ^universal satisfaction throughout the State. It wifl: be a severe blow, however, to Charleston's influence in the State Legislature. He wielded there a tremendous influence, which, while it was sometimes too much for Charleston alone, was generally for the good of the whole State. Charles? ton has no other, man who can take his place in that body. ; The Sunday Pulpit Dr. Talmage's sermon Sunday was on 'Strong Drink, the Worst Foe of Labor.' 'What has ; become of the billions and billions of dol?ais in this country paid to the working classes V he asked. 'Some of these moneys have gone for house rent or family expenses or to provide comforts in old age. What has become of other billions ? Wasted in foolish outlay ; wasted at the gaming table ; wasted in intoxicants. '1 stand before the Christian Church and before the American people to? day,' Baid Dr. Talraage, 'to declare that the most persistent and over? whelming enemy of the working classes is intoxicating liquor. It is a worse-enemy than monopoly, it is a worse enemy than associated capital, it is the pest of the century aud has boycotted and is boycotting the body, mind and soul of American industry. It snatches away a large percentage of the wages of -this counfry. It meets the laboring man and operative on his scay to work in the morning, I with baleful solicitations, and at the noon spell and in the eventide, and on Saturday when the wages are paid it takes1 mach of that which ought to go for the support of the family and. sacrifice* it to the saloonkeeper. The Mutual Admiration Free Trade - \ Association of South Carolina is book [ed to meet.in Columbia at an early day. If these gentlemen would modify the ! aims of their association to a reforma? tion of the tariff io stead of demanding free trade, its membership would grow rar^dly.^^xcT^j^e.
