The Bone Bill.


The speech Of Senator Corbin in favor of
what is famllarly called the "Bonc Bill. "
was both plausible and ingenious, and it
must be admitted that the create apostle of
Monopoly is consistent in defending for
others what he practices for himself. The
senator who monopolizes the sweets of at
SsaSt Is gafp gafp q Snseff few Respectable rcn
tlemen, Il monopoly of phosphate mining.
In one respect, however, Mr.. Corbn is not
consistent. He urges as reason why the
phosphate monopoly should he granted, that
IL requires great capital to mine phosphatcs
successfully, and yet denounces those who
have already'cmployed capital for the pur-
pose, and who so employ ii STILL Why it is
necessary to give one sci of capitalists n
monopoly of the river phosphates, because
another set OF capitalists have been mining
those phosphates without paying royalty,
which has never been demanded of them.
Mr.. Corbin docs not condcscend 10 explain.
The Bone bill will come up again after
the recess, and we are assured that the rep-
rescntatives of the companies now engaged
in the phosphate business will then exhibit
10 the Legislature the true history of the dis
covery md working OF the phospatic de-
posts, and will be able TO show the inius
tice OF monopoly and the Justice of free trade

MIR. CoRBIN in his speech OIL the ..Bone
'.blIl, sought to justify his Monopoly by n
plausible suggestion that the South Carolina
Railroad Company had been given '.exclu-
"slve privileges, for the purpose of induc-
ing capitalists to build the road. The only
privilege That the company has, besides its
exemption from taxation, is the sole right
TO build and operate n railroad within ccr-
tain narrow limits. If the South Carolina
Railroad Company enjoyed the erclusice
right to build and operate railroads in the
'rhofe State, then, and then alone, would it
Uc monopoly of the same class rs the
"Bone IlilI."

court its appellate jurisdiction in proceedings
commenced by writ Of hGbeas corpus. 1t ap-
pears that there is case expected to como up In
the Supreme Court st an early day somewhat
similar to the Yerger case. This is the immediate
object Of Mr.. Summers bill, or rather it is intend
ed to meet this case, and he intends to urge
speedy action on it by the Committee on the
Judiciary, TO whom the bill was referred. brakes
bill is Of q more sweeping character, and goes
further than even such men rs Sumaer are
disposed to 90. Ar. brakes idea IS that,
as the United States inferior courts were
created By Congress they have no power to
pass upon or decide whether the laws
enacted by that body are constitutional
or unconstitutional. They have no business, he
thinks, to have any opinions on that subject, and
his bill prohibits the Supreme Court from enter
tanning appeals from such inferior courts nvoly-
ing the validity o: Congressional legislation.
Drake SAYS his Dill strikes at the root OF what he
deems the uawarraated interference OF the Su-
preme Court in matters pertaining only to the
legislative branch Of the government, while Sam
ner's is merely intended to meet one OF the many
cases likely to be brought before the court if its
present jurisdiction is left undis.urbed. 1t is not
thought that the Judiciary Committee will report
favorably on brakes BILL because it iSregarded
as an attempt to break down the judiciary and 10
take away from the Supreme Court all power to
review the action OF Congress. Drake is prepar-
ing strong speech in defence OF his BILL

whether the committee, if appointed, will
tell the whole truth? We shall see.

No MORE scandalous proposition has ever
been entertained By the Legislature than the
bill "to indemnify D. C. Robertson and Du-
"bose & Co., of Sumter County, for losses
sustained through the action OF armed
"banis of incendaries in said county" ol
which notice was given on Wednesday.
These men had been dealing in seed cotton.
They were warned to desist. They did not de-
sist, and their stores were burned. No one OF
the incendiaries have been discovered, al
though a number OF arrests were made. The
violent act was and is condemned by every
respectable man in Sumter County, and now
it is proposed that tho whole State shall bear
the brunt of the follies or crimes OF hand
full of men whom nobody knows. Sumter is
made responsible for the so-called &. K. KS,
and South Carolina must pay for Sumter.
This out-Herods Herod; it bangs Banagher.
What comes next? Perhaps bill to levy 4
special tax to salve the feelings OF the
State officials lacerated by tie singing
truths found only in the columns Of The
CHARLESTON News.

IT Is rumorcd that 4 bill will soon be in
troduced in the General Assembly providing
that the salaries Of the mer,hers and OF all
the State officials be paid in coin. There is
some sense in this. II the members take up
such q bill and pass it, they will add fourth
to their present income. This can be fc!:
and understood, but when they propose to
pay in coin the principal and interest OF the
State debt, they only put money II the
pockets of tie Radical Ring. This bill to
pay the State debt in coin is one which not
cnriches the members OF the General Assem-
bly,, and makes Us poor indeed. The meri-
bcrs have been working for Scott & Co. for
some months. Is it not time that they did
something iOr themselves?

A Pot Shot.

A member Of the House Of Representatives
introduced on Tuesday resolution recon-
mefding to Governor Scott that reward of
five Thousand dollars be paid to Constable
Jerry Hollngshead ''for the brave and faith
"ful performance OF bis duty" in killing Tol-
bert, one of the assassins Of B. F. Randolph.
Hollingshead was wounded three times, and
would doubtless be willing to take three
more flesh wounds at the same price-slX-
teen hundred and sixty-siX dollars each.
But the reward is not because Tolbert
wounded Hollingshead, but because Hol-
lingshcad ''fred upon the said Tolbert, kill
ing him instantly" This generosity with
other peoples money is very praiseworthy.
But IIolingsheed only did his duty. Why
should he be given five thousand dollars Tor
doing the thing that he bargained to do, and
for which he is paid by the State? And
what makes the transaction all the more in
comprehensive is, that the Radicals, while
ready enough to pay well for what is done
badly, or not at all, are very slow to reward
merit, whether it comes in the giise OF State
constable or Democratic official. 1t is q
queer business, but the truth will leak out
presently.
N.B.-A Radical correspondent has nosed
it all out, and says that it is not certain that
it was Hollingshead who fred the fatal shot;
another account says positively that Tolbert
was killed by either Constable Emanuel or
Constable Brown OF course, if somebody
else did the work, the consistency OF Radi-
calism is Observation-Disclosures shoulC'
have his money at once
