1t is refreshing to read sentiments
like the following from the Press Of

says:
There is noticcal le disposition
among a few OF our exchanges 10

tion grows. will leal to dangerous
consequences. One h' tile Offices

whatever spcciouS vcstment the
same may appear, it fails in one OF
It's highest duties anal becomes the
sport Of the brcrZc-,a mere weather

The Palmetto lt~mon speaks ont
ON the same subject as follows:

square our actions by orthodox arti-

the platform, but some people Goil't
like TO be carrying up their creed

et by a court OF enquiry at every
election TO sc, il they can pass

There IS not enough independence
in journalism. Party iral,y is all
very good. but fcally To truth is far
noblcr. When an issue is mad. l.c-
tween party and truth. every honest
and independent jonrnnlis, should
lccius in favor Of truth. Such Is the
unfortunate condition nf politics in
the South that freedom Of political
opinion has been 10 certain extent
nc;cs ;arily suppressed. Bi:, npt Il
