ministration of tho Office. A trial
Justice need not be q practising
attorney, but he certainly should
possess, or subsequently acquire,
considerable legal Information, both
from the statutes and from text
books. If he is totally ignorant Of
the laws ho is sworn to execute,
and has neithor tho desire nor the
ambition to inform himself, then he
is committing crime against
society i'll accepting position in .
volving SO much responsibility.
Forbear, then, Messrs. Editors,
to condemn system that has not
yet had a fair trial. Rather expose
the abuses that have crcpt into it.
Let the incompctoncy Of those who
vainly attempt to administer the
laws under it bo fully laid bare. If
it can bo demcnst. that persons
possessing the requisite qunlitica-
tions can not be found to conduct
the system properly, then abolish
it altogether. There is no doubt
but that it has been a great burden
upon most communities, not Of
itself, but because of its abuses. If
these can not bo rcmedicd, then
erase it from tho statute book.

The Judicial Elections.

Apropos of tho election of judges,
the Register has examined the
record and gives tho proceedings
Of the convention that ordained the
conflicting sections of the Consti-
tuition. It says:
On page G17 of tho proceedings,
we find tho disputed section re-
ported as follows: "Tho State shall
be divided into convenient circuits,
and for each circuit a judge shall DO
elected by the qualified electors
thereof, who shall hold his Office
for term of four years, and during
his continuance in Office he shall
reside in the circuit of which he is
Judge"
MIR. @. 9. Bowen moved to strike
out tho word "thereof" and insert
the words "of tho State" which was
not agreed to. Mr.. G. M. Wilder
moved to strike out the words
"qualified electors" and insort the
words "by joint cote of the General
Assembly" Debate cnsued upon
this proposition, and quite nun
ber of those who afterwards bore
such q conspicuous part in the
degradation of the judiciary system
participated in the discussion.
The question was taken on the
adoption of the amendment offered
by Wilder, end it. was decided in
The news and herald. (Winnsboro, S.C.) 1877-1900, 1877-11-08

tho affirmative by yeas G5, nays "a.
There is nothing further contained
in the proceedings relative to the
manner Of voting for circuit judges
until the final passage of Art. 4,
which was adopted twelve days
after the amendment was passed.
The article was read by sections,
and Us ratified contains the words
"joint ballot" How did this occur?
It was not by authority Of tho con-
vontion, and the only rational on
planation is that the meaning of
the torms employed was not fully
comprehended by tho members
present. 1t was only two days
before the final adjournment, and
if the word ''ballot" was inserted by
an engrossing clerk under a misap-
prchension Of terms, tho difference
failed to attract attention. Wheth-
CT or not tho Supreme Court will
entertain this conversion Of terms,
as material, in considering the
authority given by tho Constitution
to elect circuit judges by joint
ballot, VIC are unable to conjecture.
Certainly. tho clause has remained
undisturbcd from tho time it was
surreptitiously placed there on tho
final passage Of tho section.
although the practice has been
uniform in disrcgarding its pres
cncc, until the Democrats came into
power. 1t is an important question,
however. and the highest interests
Of tho State demand an carly solu-
ton. Six circuit judges arc on tho
bench without having been chosen
by tho method prescribed in The
State Constitution, as it was adopt
eel on the 18th day Of April, 1868,
and Justice to all parties requires
that there should be no doubt us to
the validity Of their titles.
If six judges were not chosen in
accordance with the provisions Of
a section in the Constitution,
another judge was not elected in
accordance with tho provisions of /,
different section, equally plain. In
an election by ballot, how can the
names Of those voting, with the
candidates for whom they vote, be
entered on the journal? If we are
to fly in the teeth Of part Of the
Constitution, in whatever way the
election is hold, it seems to us
better to disregard that section
which is incongruous, and at vari-
anco with the whole spirit of the
Constitution, as declared in tho
provisions for other elect ions.

An oriental traveller describes this
busy scene witnessed on historic
shores "Our steamer landed on
Il beach which was the port Of Anti,
och, whore the disciples were first
called Christians. There was no
town ut the waters edge, no people,
no wharf. The passengers and tho
merchandise were put ashore in
lighters, which ran up into the sand.
y troop OF camcls, with their driy>
crs, lay on the beach, ready to trans
fer the goods into the interior.
Among the articles landed were
boxes marked DIR. j. G.. AVER & Co.,
LOWELL, Mass, U. S. A., showing
that they contained medicines und
and whence they came. These
with other goods were hoistcd on the
backs of camcls, for transportation
to Antioch. Thus the skill of the
west sends back its remedies to heal
the maltdics of populations that
inhabit those eastern shores, whence

TRIAL JJSYICES.
MesSrs. .Edit0rs.:

Messrs. Etlitors.
Public attention seems Of late to
have been particularly drawn to
that class Of officials denominatcd
by statute trial justices. Much has
been said and written concerning
the system of the administration of
tho laws by trial justices, and
doubtless good grounds havo cx.
listed for all the complaints that
have been made in regard to the
system, or rather to tho abuses
that have grown upon it. It is a
well established principle that
courts of justice arc created pri~
marily to punish evil-doers, and no
tribunal SO created can accomplish
it's mission unless directed intelli-
gently, and with an eye single to
it's original design. This leads me
to remark that no system inaugu
rated for the purposes jnst out
lined can succeed in tho hands of
ignorant and uninformcd persons.
Nor can tho trial justice system
ever bo brought to subscrvc the
object of it's conception 80 long as
men arc appointed to tho Office of
trial justice simply because they are
good, honest, clover fellows, with
out regard to the question Of their
fitness for the position. It is
preposterous to say that tho laws
can be intelligently and properly
administered by mon who on the
day before their induction into
Office did not know tho difference
between tho Revised Statutes and
Homcr's Iliad. It is equally alb
surd to suppose that q man, wholly
unacquaintcd with tho rules of
evidence, can conduct the judicial
trial of q person accused Of crime,
where frequently questions arc
sprung touching the admissibility
and competency of testimony. 1t
docs not follow from this reasoning
that none but lawyers should be
appointed trial justices, but it does
follow that Intelligent, well-educat.
ed mon only should have confded
to them 80 responsible trust-men
who have the capacity to take in
and act advisedly upon the legal
knowledge and information neces,

THE UNITED STATES SENATE stood,
before Morton's death, thirty-nine
Republicans, thirty~thrce Demo-
Gratis, Judge Davis, Independent,
and Louisiana and South Carolina
not represented. It will now
stand, thirty-eight Republicans,
thirty -four Democrats and one In
dependent. Judge Davis attends
no caucuses, but often sides with
the Democrats. In two years the
Senate will be Democratic any way,
but the admission of Spofford,
Eustis and Butler would sooner
make tho change. 1t is thought
that tho Hayes Republicans will
advocate seating these gentlemen,
because the Senate will soon be
Democratic anyhow; and it would
be better for the President to have
the majority in That body friendly
to him, than by aiding tho factious
opposition of the extreme Radicals
to antagonize the Democrats.
Hayes will present the spectacle of
President who has outlived his
party.
