We bare before us the following Utter addressed to a prominent bosi oese man of this oily : "/ am informed that the butines* nk't of SumUr want to build a cotton mill, but for some reason the matter hang-* fire I would like for you to ?er?7? me whether they want some help the outside from a wan who could wring a strong subscription and take the management of the enterprise My friends afi want me to undertake a cotton mill, and I would appreciate this information with a view of conferring with them if you think there is an opening* There ought not to be any trouble to build a ten thousand spindle mill there with a good man from the outside backed by a good subscription. 1 will be glad to hate an early reply mi your convenience '* Thle letter if from a well known Spertsnburg man who bae been for years and ie now identified with the ootton mill bnsinese in that eeotion He has the praotioal experience and the financial resources to make a mill a eaooeee to 3umter, and he is seek? ing a locality where there ie an abun? dant sopply of cotton and where the Held ie favorable to n new cotton Mill. He ?neens bnsinese and oan command all the money necessary to establish n mill, bot he prefers to locate in n community that ie pro? gressive end will cooperate with him in eetabUewing n mill. This is the eolation io n not ebell : Doee Snmter went a ootton mill ? Will the business men of Snmter pot np $100,000 to secure n $200,000 cot too mill ? If they do not want a cotton mill they have only to refuse to cooperate with this eiperienoed Spartanburg mill man, and nothing more need be eaid. Extended comment ie not needed nod we prefer to leave the matter aa it otando on its merits Io times peat we have written much about the advsntsges of ootton mills and much about the desirability of eeouring outside capital to aopplement local capital in establishing the cotton mill Industry All that we bnve written in tbe past holds good, snd we be Heve tbst an oos qnestioos that we have statsd nothing more tbsn the hard facts when favoring tbe eatab lishmsnt of a cotton milt Now out side cepitsl is offered snd all that the Sumter people have to rii ia to meet jhe offer half wsy Will the business men rise to the occasion ? Will they do heir part toward giv ing Sumter a big ootton mill or will they say to ouMide capitalists that no mills are wanted, no capital is invit? ed io invent in dvtuuter snd that Sum ter prefers to go oo in tbe samo old rut ?

The paper trust should bo dealt with by tho congress It not only affects the great publishing interests, but it is a tax upon all newspaper and magazine readets Prices must go up for paper to print upon, and then there must be an advance in the price, of the printed newspaper or book or periodical It is a tax upon learning, upon information, upon tho general intelligence The taxeo on pulp aud paper should be reduced at once The present tariff is a curse and disgrace. Tbe republican gang is alone respon? sible for it There are many reasons for reduc? tion snd not one for its continuance. Under the law robbery, wholesale and endless, is perpetrated The Philadelphia Times says : "The paper trust is now taxing tbe newspaper snd book put ^ers of the country many millions, not be osuee of any such actual increase in the cost of producing paper, out because the trust has the power to extort from the purchasers of paper up to the extent that would make tariff-taxed foreign paper and pulp cheaper than t'je pi ices demanded here This trust has played its scheme of extortion to the uttermost, and congress should at once remove the tax that protects no American industry and that has become only an agent to rob the consumers. "Two thirds of the wood pulp used in tbe manufacture of paper for American consuLiption should come from Canada, but it is excluded by a tariff tax. auj we are now roshing besdlong in the destruction of our forests." It is not creditable to the intelli? gence of this country that such a mothod of wholesale robbery should be possible or tolerated It is de structive and it is oppressive and ahould not be apologized for or fa? vored by any man of even pretended respectability. The Times says, and wisely ssys : "The two conclusive reasons which should make congress act promptly are?first, that the paper trust should be at once halted in its rapid destruction of our Americau forests by the admission of free wood palp from Canada ; and, second, tbst tbe present extortion practiced by the paper trust upon publishers of newspapers and books shall cease to have the protection of the govern? ment. ' The time has come when any trust that makes arbitrary profits by tsriff duties must cease to be pro? tected by tbe government " But what can be expected from such a congress as the present one is known to be ? It is like its party?a republican robber and oppressor, without fesr or conscience, Its life and hope are based on schemes of robbery It cares nothing for tbe people?the mass?and of course nothing for forests. Tue thing to do to please tbe rabid, wicked, debased party is to rob The thing for tbe decent, reputable members to do is to put paper and pulp on the free list The Times is right when it says that "the paper trust has demonstrated that these taxes serve only a single purpose?that is to invite robbery under color of law." The paper trust is perhaps the very worst of sll trusts for it not only robs a great publishing class, but it places an embargo upon brains?a tax upon education?a levy upon amusement?a tariff upon news. There is no class, theie is no condi tion of .neu who is in the remotest degree benefited by this law save only the class who croaJ.e and run the piper trust The Kansas City Star nays of this vile oppression and wrong: ' Is there the least shadow of an apology for imposing a penalty on a business or profession which yields to the. public the great moral of educational service performed by the newspapers and magazines'/ Theie certainly is not. The tyranny of the paper trust is not justified even as a line and punishment inflicted on the newspap^ts for their general cen? sure of combinations against trade." Is there any possible chance to have the evil cured?the oppression re moved : Republicans say they are opposed to trusts. If there is any truth in this why do they not razee heavily the great tariff tsx?why do they not strike down this senseless attack upon information and enter? tainment ??Wilmington Messenger.

Manning, March I ?Court has been in session bere this week with Judge [>. A Townaeod presiding. The ceaes of principal importance at this term were the State against J. P Broek for criminal libel and the State against F. H. Hursey, a conductor on the Atlantic Coast Line, for killing a negro at Pinewood several weeks ago. It was proven that Conductor Hareey ebot the negro in self defense and the jury only remained out seven minutes when 'bey returned a verdict of cot guilty. Tha Brock libel case has attracted large crowds tn town on account of the promi? nence of the parties concerned. W. S. Ricb oourg ez-auperintendent of education, was the prosecutor and the charge was that J. P. Brock circulated ? iibelous circular agairsi Ricbbourg, the whole matter growing out of a difficulty between Ricbbourg and A. P. Brock, a brother of the defeudaot. The case was hotly contested nod lasted about two daya, the defense heiog represented by Messrs. J. F. Rhame, of Manning, and Lee & Moise, of Sumter, and Solicitor Wilson whs assist? ed in tbe prosecution by Capt W. C. Davis. The j iry returned a verdict of guilty, with a recommendation to mercy. Before sentence waa pissed Richhourg the prosecutor, asked that the judge make tbe sentence as light as possible, af he (Ricbbourg) was only wishing a verdict aa a vindication. Io vie i of the jury recommendation to mercy and this re? quest by the prosecutor, Judge Tow riser, d made the sentence very light, $50 fine or one dar on the chaiogang. Tb^attorneys for tbe defense moved for a new trial, bat tbe motion was overruled, and it is understood that tbe defendant will give bond and appeal to tbe supreme court.
