worthy accounts of current events and employs for this
purpose a numerous and carefully selected staf Of

doubtless continues to deserve and enjoy the hatred of
those who thrive by plunderng the Treasury by

to merit the confidence of the public by defending the

The people Of South Carolina are put
ting their house in order; they have re-
formed their judiciary, improved their
legislature, etc, but have finally come
to an undertaking more gigantic than
the cleasing of the Augean Stables, at
which they have to pause and hesitate.
and that is the University OF South Car
DINA. At one time one Of the most sue
cessful and prosperous universities
in the South. 1t degenerated during Rad
ical rule into disgusting political ma
chine. The professors were lot OF
small politicians, selected wholly for
their services to the party three.fourths
the students were negroes; the expen-
ses were heavier than during its most
prosperous years; and finally, although
the whites paid altogether for the insti-
tuition they were denied all its privi-
leges.
Such was the University of South Caro-
lima as it was found by the Hampton gov
eminent. The Legislature concluded
that 1t was beyond doctoring. No legis-
ibtlCu COulu pttota III up- ~ hbu W w
completely disinfected, rebuilt and re-
established.
The University, therefore, has been
closed by the present Legislature, the
professors dismissed, and the students
sent home. In year or two it will re-
open on new basis, and in time prob
ably attain its old renown. This was a
wise action on the part Of the Legisla-
ture. There was no other cure but this
for the disease Radicalism brought on;
and we OF Louisiana might initiate with
advantage the example Of the South
Carolinians and abolish altogether
some Of the relics Of Radical rule rather
than attempt to patch them up into re-
spectability and decency. 1t can not
be done. "

Almost in the same telegram which
brings the intelligence that the Presi-
dent Is determined to carry out his idea
of civil service reform, comes the news
that the post Of Solicitor Of the Trea-
sury has been offered TO x-Gov. Cham
berlain, of South Carolina. Which, now,
is the best evidence Of the Presidents in
tentions in this reform Of the service, his
promise, repeated already score Of
times, of app ointing only proper men
to office, or this offer Of this
appointment to Chamberlain The
ideas entertained by the people
of this country in respect to civil
service reform are receiving some ter
rible shocks. It was announced, when
Hayes first went in, that the Federal
Offices were open to all CO competent per-
sons, without regard to former political
affiliations. Soon after it was declared
The New Orleans daily Democrat. [volume] (New Orleans, La.) 1877-1880, 1877-05-24

that only Republicans would be ap-
pointed, but that these, in the South at
least, would be only good" and decent
Republicans; it was afterwards col
cluded to modify this rule by appoint
ing only workers; that Is, politicians
who had worked for Hayes in the late
election and finally, we wind up with
Chamberlain. II this is the reform in
the service to which we are 80 rapidly
moving, it is about time to halt and con-
slider a little.

Logan, OF Illinois, has settled in Col

IA not desire for the solitude and quiet

this may DO 50. and might forgive Col

action will be strong incentive and in

manently move" on this class of people

they will follow Logan's lead il Logan is
successful in his quest; then we may

Some recent developments in Indiana
show that the manner In which the Re-
publicans began the late Presidential
campaign was fully as disgusting as the
manner in which they completed it and
inaugurated their candidate as Presi-
dent.
Indiana, it will be remembered, was
chosen as the first battle field OF the
campaign, aud the Republicans felt that
If they could carry that State. the fight
was, indeed, won. Allatheir resources,
therefore, all their money, all their ora
tors, all their strategy, were concen-
trated in Indiana, and the most gigantic
efforts made to obtain a majority by
hook or crook. Two circumstances in
the Republican management OF the
campaign attracted universal attention
at the time, but could then be only par
TALLY explained; these were the retire
ment OF Orth, the original Republican
nominee for Governor, and the with
drawal OF Wolcott, the Greenback can
didate, in favor Of the Republican Dom-
inee. Late developments have exposed
the true inwardness Of these with
drawals, and the check for SIS, 900. paid
to Olleman, secretary Of the Green
back State Central Committee. for VOL
colt, by the Republicans, to induce the
Withdrawal of Wolcott, has not only
bees traced up, but found.
Last winter the House Of Representa-
tiyes, it is said, heard Of this transac-
ton, determined on an investigation,
and even sent sergeant-at-arms to
Indianapolis to arrest Olleman and
Wolcott, but the birds had flown, left
for parts unknown, and did not return
until long after Hayes was peaceably
inaugurated. 1t is perhaps too late
now to investigate this matter more
fully, and it can be Of little advantage,
in any way, except as key note OF the
manner in which the late campaign was
begun and carried on by the Repub'
licans. and as proof that all the charges
made against them then were true. ln
a dozen different places the mysteries O
the late campaign are slowly leaking
out, and they will probably furnish 10
time full history Of Radical tactics fol
our service. in the. next election.

NEW ORLEANS PACIFIC HALLWAY.
TO THE PEOPLE.

TO THE PEOPLE.
In spite of the we'll understood fact that
the New Orleans Pacific Railway Com
pany never had any other idea than to
build their road continuously from New
Orleans to Shreveport, on Red River,
and Marshall, Texas, and have the en-
tire line between these initial end ter
minal points under contract. some per-
sons for want Of information, and
others who are the enemies Of all pub
lie enterprises, from motive to mis-
represent, persist in asserting and cir
culating the contrary.
Once for all, the Directors of the New
Orleans Pacific Railway Company pro-
claim that so soon as the subscription to
their great undertaking Is voted by the
people, working parties in large num-
bers will be placed both between New
Orleans and Alexandria, and Alexandria
and Shreveport and Marshall.
Already their contractor is calling for
fifteen hundred men at good wages

TEE BALTIC ENTERPRISE GAME.-Tho

A New SwINDLISG DoDGE-The latest
swindle is in the purchase OF metallic
clothes lines. The polite agent introduces
himself TO the farmer, exhibits his wire,
asks him to accept hundred feet Of il as
4 gift, but at the same time requests
him to act as agent for its sale. The
farmer consents to it, and is requested to
sign his name and address on the back OF
one OF the circulars produced by the
agent. In the course Of time 1000 or
5000 feet Of the line is shipped to the
farmer, and a few days thereafter a
printed order with the agreement to pay
the retail price Of five cents per foot is
produced by another person, and the
farmers only recourse is 10 pay it, as the
person presenting the order is an "inno.
cent" purchaser. Moral: Don't sign your
name.

priss OF Thursday:
"The temperance work in Wheeling has
spread oil over the city, and the saloon
keepers are very much excited over the
threatened danger to their business. Re.
Gently they held secret convention to
take into consideration the question. To
counteract as much az possible the lnau.
ence Of the temperance work, they are en-.
deavoring to surround their business with
all the attractive inducements they can
device. The saloons are being fitted up
with all the indictments Of pleasure pos.
sib!e, and great Tivoli garden has been
constructed, and band imported from
Pittsburgh at great expense to dispense
the music, that is to throw delusive
charm over the great evil. It is not be.
