ANOTHER terrible and fatal fracas
has occurred at political mass meet
ing in South CarOIi1a. OF course the
fault was the negroes, These negroes
without any provocation whatever came
rushing into town and attacked the poor
unoffeuding hites, shooting right and
left and missing all the white people
they shot at and killed four of their own
number and wounded many others.
This is only little of the persuasion of
voters recommended by the South Car.
,olina press The abused white people
however, soon succeeded in restoring
order. The truth of the matter will be
along by and by, and we venture the
assertion that another cruel, heartless
massacre of innocent and unoffending
colored people will be revealed.

Many of the claims presented to the
Coz 1gressional committee for services
rendered the late President Garfield,
are very exorbitant. Several Of these
men forced their services upon the
President for the sole purpose it seems
of enrichiDg themselves. Honesty and
conscience form no part of their compo'
sition. An opportunity for fortune
was presented and like highway rob
Der, they were not willing to let it pass.
They should be paid the same amount
that they could have earned in pur.
suing their legitimate pursuits in the
same period of time. They are entitled
to nothing more unless they can show
that their business suffered by neglect
and pecuniary loss was sustained in
consequence thereof. A truly honest
man would not ask anything more
than fair and legitimate compensation.
To take advantage of the wealth of the
nation or the necessities of the patient,
is dishonorable and unjust. Other men
with equal skill existed, whose services
would have proven equally beneficial.
Had they been successful in saving the
life of the distinguished patient there
might have been occasion for gratitude
and demand tor q commensurate re-
ward. To take advantage of the ne
cessity of a case, to extort an inOrdi-
nate fee, is neither just nor honorable
but in keeping with the conduct and
character of thief or robber.

145O times before candidate was 50

THE Democratic papers pretend to
have some knowledge of five thousand
dollars having been sent to Richard
Harrington, chairman of the Republi-
can State Central Committee of the
State, by ex-senator S. W. Dorsey with
which to buy up voters. This is nc
doubt just like many more lies told by
these papers, which have no foundation
in truth. However, admitting it to be
true, it would only be the c1y Of thieves
calling "stop thief" 1t is more likely
that while the Democrats are charging
the Republicans with receiving $4,000
they are quietly fobbing $4,000 contri-

AFTER all it seems that the hour for
opening the "little election" next Tues
day, is between nine and ten o'clock in
the forenoon, instead of eleven and
and twelve o'clock, as before stated. 1t
appears that the legislature altered the
time at late session, but owing to in
sufficient means for publishing the laws,
nobody scarcely knew anything about
this change. Then let it be distinctly
understood that the polls will open on
Tuesday next between nine and ten

THE Cock AND bull stories that come
from the recognized organ OF the Demo
c ratio party, in references to the Re
publican ticket in Sussex County, are
simply lies out OF the whole cloth and
published only to deceive the people
No attention whatever should be paid
to them. The Republicans OF Sussex
were never more united and determined
on success than they now are, and the
ticket nominated gives the greatest sat-
isfaction. The idea held out that there
Is only one Republican upon the lIegis-
lative branch that was net put there by
the dictation of political manipulators
is simply absurd aud ridiculous-tn
fact there is no truth in it whatever.
There never was more determined
purpose TO satisfy all shades of Repub
lican opinion, aud that purpose has sue
ceeded beyond the expectations of the
most sanguine. To such an extent did
harmony and couciation rule in the
Conv eption, that Broad Creek Hundred,
which had four candidates for the Leg
islature, gave them all up and Two can
didates were taken from Little Creek
Mr. Bacon and Mr.. Tyre. There is not
a man upon the ticket that does not
possess the confidence nd respect OF
the whole people. There is not Stal-
wart nor Half Breed nominated-sim-
ply Republicans of standing and char
acter. The Republicans Of Sussex are
bent on winning this time and it would
have been suicidal to them to have
nominated other than first class tick.

to elect their ticket in spite of the
wholesale slander and lying of the Will
mington Democratic organ.

statement concerning the case is correct
he is not beyond the suspicion of guilt
but we do not believe with guilty iu
tent. OF course more honesty aud de

than of Democratic police. The latter
made a regular practice of receiving

be permitted to get drunk with impu

The Railroad Bill.

The very moderate character of the
measure proposed, the conservative
snir;t in which the subject has been
treated the solicitade shown to avoid
any injurious restriction upon railroad
management and to do nothing that
should deter capital from Investment IN
railroad enterprises in our State, as
evineed BY the action Of the Railroad
Committee and shown By the bill they
reported with iudieious and carefully
devided provisions, induced Us TO hope
that it would encounter no opposition
whatever from any quarter. In the
last canvass, both parties committed
themselves 10 the policy embodied in
the bill. It vas a part Of the platform
of the Democracy On which their
standard-bearer stood and which he
championed with ability. and Il was
declared to Be the policy Of the 0ppo-I

credited representative. While Ne are

While we are looking to Washington
City for a law making the Commits
sioner of Agriculture Cabinet officer
(intrinsically good measure), it would
be well to remember that we of Missis-
sippi have deeper interests in our State
legislation in matters that relate to our
own local and material interests. The
predominating industry of our State Is
agriculture. We respectfully submit
that bureau, having exclusive charge
of matters appertaining to the agricul-
tural industry, would serve valuable
purpose. Its province would be to OBJ
tain and circulate information touching
the soils Of the State and their uses.
The varied productions of which they
are capable, cotton, grain, grasses, clio
yer, its timber resources, and their
uses in building and manufacturing.
It's mineral resources (if any. Its
capabilities for stock raising and the
treatment of diseases incident to live
stock. 1t is possible that such bureau
could be made an appendage of the office
of Commissioner of immigration whose
peculiar business it will be to give
such information as people in search
of new homes, desire to obtain.

Workings of the Georgia Railroad
Legislation.

In another column we have given a
synopsis of report BY committee Of
the New York Chamber Of Commerce,
embodring extracts from the annual re-
port of the Railroad Commission of
Georgia, which is well worthy Of the
consideration Of the public, and esPe-
cially those of our readers who have
been selected by the people 10 deal with
the important question to which these
reports relate.
The Georgia Commission was estab-
Iished in 1879, after a careful consider
alton of the subject. Upon the Prin-
ciple that the ultimate result tests the
merits of a measure, the wisdom of
this legislation has been triumphantly
established. The results, as stated, are
the reduction and equalization of
freights and fares for the public at large,
and at the same time an increase
and larger net returns of traffic for the
railroads. The corporations fought the
measure at every step. They fought 1t
in the Legislature, and when it had be-
come law they appealed to the courts,
but the courts decided that it was con-
stitutional Nothing but aequiescenee,
and making the best of what they could
not prevent, remained for them; and
they have been agreeably surprised by
the results. They and the public have
both been immensely benefited. Traffic
has increased. Travel has increased.
The railroads are satisfied. A good I'M
Outstanding has been established be-
tween them and the people. The
lawmakers legislated wiser than they
knew and Georgia has the distinguish
ed honor of being held up as an example
not only by her Southern sisters but
by the Empire State of the Union.
In this connection, we are pleased toI
state that in drafting the House bill
which is pending in our Legislature, Mr..
Woods, the distinguished Chairman of
the Railroad Committee, took for his
model the Georgia law, which is sol
strongly approved by the New York
Chamber of Commerce, and the merits
of which, above all other considerations,
has been demonstrated by its opera
tions.

The following is an extract from the
report of the Massachusetts Board OF
Railroad Commissioners. It evinces a
liberal spirit, and asserts a truth which
cannot be disputed. 1t adds another
reason to the argument that the claims
of the Mississippi river to improvement
from the federal treasury are preemi-
nent. While it cannot be assumed that
the measure will afford a complete RENE
dy for the abuses referred to, it will go a
long way in that direction, for>the pro-
lection of the regions that are con-
tiguous to it. The Commissioners do
not pretend to say that it will dispense
with the necessity of State legislation
much less answer all the purposes of
interstate regulations. But the effect
will be good as far as it goes
The best influence which Congress can ex-
ert toward lowering the rates Of freight is
legislation improving the navigation Of the
Mississippi and other great lines of water
communication. These furnish naturaI
competition with railroads and impose a
desirable check on railroad rates. If any
section finds its share of traffic diminished
by such action, it can bear such reduction.
sustained by the idea that what honestly
benefits one section is benefit to the whole.
while every one can see that the develop
ment of a cheap transportation route
furnished by nature is very different from
an arbitrary rule favoring one locality to
the disadvantage of another.

Interstate Commerce.

The National Board of Trade has
adopted resolution urging Congress to
appoint a commission which shall have
supervision over all interstate traffic in
the interest of all parties concerned,
both the general public and the corpora
tions themselves. This result was
reached after mature deliberation. It
is now generally conceded that each State
may regulate commerce for itself, but
regulations that affect interstate com.
merce properly devolve upon Congress.

is not to be ignored, nor tl0a.u~
as, the Ttterances of mere theorists.
The effect of the law has been
to tempt the producers to anticipate the
value Of their crops, and to spend more
than they have brought. Having tried
the law in all its phases, up one side
and down the other, and experienced
series of bitter disappointments for the
last thirteen years, but one recourse is
left, and that is to repeal it. After hav-

has any, should be now willing to try
the effect of doing without it.
