Fence Meeting at Due West.

Last Saturday a meeting of the citizens
OF Due West was held at Ioung's store to
discuss the no fence law. DR.. y. Z. law
thorn was chairman of the meeting and
mado q lengthy speech against the adop-
ton of tho law. He was followed 10y Il
speech from DR.. John y. Robinson who
differed with DIR. Hawthorn in sonic re-
spccts. DIR. Robinson is i'll favor OF the
law but is opposed to lcryinS a tax /"
build a fence around the township. Rev.
DIR. Boyce who owns n plantation i'll
Mecklenburg county, n. C., whore the
fence law is now in operation next spoke
in favor of the law. He believed it a
good change. 1t was greatly beneficial to
him in North Carolina. The people there
were highly pleased, and would not re-
turn to the old law for any consideration.
William Pruitt, colored Democrat, neXt
followed in a short speech III which he
said when he lay down at night with a
good fence around his crop he could sleep
soundlv, but he was not sure that he
would sleep so soundly If his fence vas
removed. Ii education was to govern let
it govern, but if labor was to govern let ii
govern. Rev. DR.. conner spoke at
length in favor of the law. His remark
were all good and to the point, and our
reporter says, at the outset, that he

higher than a kite. Prof. Kennedy fol-
lowed in q short speech in some knock
down arguments in favor of the law. He
had never seen or heard of any good ar
gument against it, except perhaps if the
fence vas removed the cross roads politi-
clan would have nothing to stand on. He
Iclt at n loss to know what to say as the
opponents of the law had not produced
any good reasons on their side. When
Prof. Hood rose to speak he scattered the
old rails now in the fences worse than if
they had been struck by lighting. He
favored the new law, not because it
would be any advantage to him directly
but upon the general principle, that
whatever benefited the farmer benefited
the country and whatever benefited the
country benefited him. Mr.. Robert
IIaddon, who is an excellent iarmer and
ought to know whereof he speaks, also
favored the law in some very appropriate
remarks. lie was tired of making rails.
He had been splitting rails all his life,
and he was worn out at this most un-
profitable business. He wanted the rest
which only this law could give. Prot. j..
y. Young was speaking when our repor-
tor left. Our readers know that he is one
of the clcarest headed men in the
try. He wants the new fence law.

BELoTr people are greatly exercised
over brutalties inflicted upon daughter
of Mr.. Chadwick, who came home to re-
side upon the death of her husband,
bringing two children to her fathers
house, Her mother and brother refused
to support the children, and they were
sent east to relatives of the father. The
loss of her husband and children drove
the poor woman crazy, and she was shut
up in q small room, where she has been
kept most of the time for the last twelve
wears. Mrs. Chadwick and her son were
complained of the other day, and City
Marshal North visited them to search
into the matter. He found the daugh-
ter imprisoned in a small room where
she was lying on short cot bedstead,
with but a single quilt between her and
the cords, which cut deep into the flesh
She had been kept there twelve years,
except at intervals when she was put
into the smokehouse. AT the time the
daughter first went to live with her
father, she bad about 81, 500, and it is
thought that this is an item that will &C
count for her bad treatment. Her mind
is completely gone now, and she is
hopelessly i6iiotic.

lady took her little boy into picture
store, in Scarborough, and lost sight OF
him for few minutes. The urchin,
after the manner Of his kind, amused
himself by pulling down valuable
painting and putting the back CT chair
through the canvas. The picture-dealer
brought suit for damages, contending
that the mother had not exercised prop
er care over the boy. but had allowed
him to go skirmishing about the room.
The Judge decided that there had been
no contributory negligence on the part
of the mother, and there was no law by
which parents could be held liable for
the faults of their children.

THE last presidential election was evil
dence sufficient, we should suppose, that
such Republicanism as was served up
darilig Grants last term was in bad
odor; and the dissatisfaction with it as
expressed at the polls, and in such strong
terms that it required q great deal of
hocus pocus and Joe Bradley to save
it from humiliation, would cause Re
publicans of all beliefs and followers Of
all 'spoIicies" to unite in aiding their
representative the President-to carry
out all measures tending to show the
world that the corruption which existed
prior to the Inauguration OF Mr.. Hayes
was not the doings OF the Republican
party and was foreign TO its principles
and objects. We believe that President
Hayes really intends to carry out the
sentiments OF and pursue the policy
foreshadowed il his letter of acceptance
and inaugural address but to Go it he
must at least have the support OF Re
publicans and especially such Repubh-
cans as have the controlling power in
the United States Senate, and Us q ma
jority of them have shown that they are
not in accord with his ideas of reform,
It may well be asked s'How are we
going to satisfy ourselves that the Pres
ident can carry out his reform measures,
and will it be safe to trust party in
whose ranks the old machine politi-
clans are numerous enough to defeat his
efforts at publication % This question
is timely in the light of the recent con
test-if such it may be called-between
the President on tbs one side and Sena-
for Conkling and his associates upon the
other, in the matter OF the New York
appointments. In that contest the Pres
ident was defeated and the spectacle
presented itself of Republican execu-
tive anu Republican Senate at swords
points, the one endeavoring TO carry out
a system which he believes necessary to
true civil service reform and the others
declaring that that system shall not
triumph. President Hayes was elected
IN the belief that he would 10 what he
promised to, and lot Of Republicans
yho should do all in their power to
assist him, are doing just the contrary.
If they think such Repubicanism as
BIZ. Conkiing represents is going to win
IN 1880, they are mistaken. There has
got to be some evidence of good faith
on the part of Republican leaders as well
as on the part of the President, for there
may be no Louisiana Returning Board
10 help things along in 1880.
