the Supreme Court to ile an opinion.
These bonds, contended counsel, were
bought by the holders after the decision in the
Glenn case was rendered, as in fact the bonds
were not issued until after that decision. The
opposition say We had notice of the Irregular
ity of issuing the bonds by the County Com
missioners-the only thing to affect bona Jfde
holders. But what was the noticei 1t ap-
peared on the face of the bond. The next
notice they had was the remittitur now on file
in the office of the Clerk of this county. Thst
renittit"r said it was the judgment of the Su-
preme Court, and the law in the case, excusing
all irregularities.
The passage of the retiring Act, by sub
sequent Legislature, thereby recognizing the
validity of the bonds, was next read and allu-
ded to as notice to the people that the bonds
we're regarded as having been regularly issued
and we're legal. while holders had no notice of
fraudulent practices or irregulsrity in their
issue.
In regard to the holders of the bonds, the
doctrine of equitable estoppel applies, to sus-
tain which, counsel cited case of Belo against
County Commissioners of Forsythe, N G.
1t is taken for granted by the opposition,
that all the bond.holders knew of the hostil.
ity to the bonds. All cannot be presumed to
have had notice. Some in York county may
not have had notice. 1t is incumbent upon
the other side to show that every bond-holder
had such notice. In regard to acquiescence
of the people, the case is strong. Cited au-
thorities to show that where fraud was shown
in an election authorizing the issuing of bonds,
after the bonds had fallen into the hands of in.
nocentholders, they were adjudged to be valid.
The main point is, if the opposition can
show that the Legislature had no power to
give this authority to the County Commission
ers, then the bonds would be void. There is
no constitutional question as to the power of
the Legislature to authorize the County Com.
missoners Of York to make the subscription.
They are the parties to whom was committed
all the business of the county-making con-
tracts, building bridges, etc. The opposition
has not attempted to show that the County
Commissioners are not the legal representa-
tives of the county. They contend that the
original Act was unconstitutional. The Su.
preme Court has decided, in recent case,
that the provision in the Constitution, refer
red to by counsel on the opposite side. is not
commandatory.
| 1t must be presumed that these bonds are

PUBLIC MEETING.

At public meeting held at Tirzah Church,
on the 18th of April, 1878, Joseph Miller
was called to the chair, and j. G. Miller and
G. E. Nc. Steele appointed secretaries
B.C. Presley offered the following resou-
tions, which were unanimously adopted:
Whereas, it is asserted that the opposition to
the York county railroad bonds is mainly con-
fined to the towns of Rock Hill and Fort Mill,
and their vicinities; now, therefore, be it
Resolued, by u.s. citizens residing in the vicn-
itv of Tirzah Church, that the subscription and
issue of said bonds was made by the Commis-
consulting the people, or in any manner obtain
ing their consent.
ResolUed, That we are now, and always have
been opposed to the subscription and issue of said
bonds, and to the payment of any part thereof.
Resolved, That refusal on the part OF the peO-
pie to pay, under these circumstances, is not re-
pudiation, because the people were not parties to
the contract, but were denied any voice upon the
question of the issue of said bonds.
Resolved That it is the duty of the Commits
sioners to make thorough defence in behalf of
the county, to the actions commenced by j. G.
Cobb and others against the county of York, in
the Circuit Court at Charleston.
Resolued, That we are in favor of vigorous
prosecution of the suit now pending in York
Court against the holders of said bonds.
ResOlUed That these proceedings be furnished

THE BONDS OF YORK COUNTY.

On last Friday morning, the plaintiff in the
suit now pending for the cancellation of the
York county bonds, made a motion before
his Honor Judge Hudson, for an order re-
straining the County Commissioners from
levying any tax to pay the interest on said
bonds, and enjoining the bond-holders from
transferring the same during the pendency OF
the action.
As was truly stated by Judge Hudson,
in his remarks refusing the motion for tenn
porary injunction, this is case of vast i'm
portance to the people of the county-of such
Importance, in fact, do we regard it-thst we
devote nearly all the space at our command
to correct report of the proceedings in the
case, in order that all questions involved, as
coming before legal tribunal, may be laid
fairly and squarely before the people. In ad-
diton to the facts of the case, which we
present as developed on the hearing, we have
also endeavored to give fair epitome of ar
gument of counsel on both sides.
The matter was one which addressed itself
exclusively to the equitable jurisdiction ofthe
Judge 1t was discretionary with his Honor
whether, upon the showing made by the
plaintiff, the preliminary injunction should be
granted. 1t was for him to determine, under
all the circumstances, whether the hands OF
of the County Commissioners and the bond
holders should be tied, or whether the plain
tiff should not wait for the final determina-
tion of the case. His Honor thought that af'
ter so long delay, and when so many rights
had become fixed in the matter of these bonds,
the plaintiff could we'll afford to wait-that
if the bonds should finally be adjudged void
the relators would not suffer as much as would
the holders, under injunction, if the bonds
should be declared valid. He therefore re-
fused the motion for injunction. The case
will come up to be heard on its merits at the
next term of Court to be held in June.

AIIABOut Inc FIrc,iOn-The Nation
ais Denounced as Communists bS
Iue Republicans, whom They Aid
ed 10 Office.
The result OF The election in this city
yesterday, demonstrated one fact pretty
clearly. There has been for month
past a cry going around the city, gotten
up by certain parties, to the effect that
there were two Republicans belonging to
the party styling themselves Nationals,
10 one Democrat This Is very easily
seen through BY everyone st the present
time. II was u blind. The result shows
that there were quite s surplus Of Demo
Gratis IN the organization. Il was OBJ
served by those who viewed the
case carefully before the election
that those who were eieCtioneerIng for
the new party we're very earnest IN soI!-
citing young Democrats TO become men,
be-s Of the organization. Perhaps there
was paint in this and perhsps there
was not. We have the subject open Tor
everyone 10 examine and pass Judgment
upO- for themselves. Oae thing Is GER
tain, when the vote wss polled the large
aceessous that was claimed from the Re
publican ranks did not show up. They
were non est. They either forgot that
they were Nationals or had never been
members Of that party. Certain It Is
that the Republicans beat by li9 more
votes thsn they did Isst fall on the head
o. the ticket. They did not poll that
| r,or.y mora votes Init the Democrats
polleI that many less. Where did these
Democratic votes 90 to if they did not 60
| to the Nationals? Still the leaders Otthe
| Nationals were known TO have asserted
that they had more greenbsck RupUbIi-
can members lhan they had from any
other source. Another thing that
wss settled was that they greatly pro-
/ lcrred the success Of the party which
