She knows that her mistress, go
called by courtesy, would submit to
any inconvenience, exeepSthe IN
convenience of beng without a
cook. She regards the husband as
an uncertain, variable character that
boards with his wife-is engrossed
with q vague something that he
makes conspicuous in his table
talk as my business'-is religious
" certain to find fault with an i'll
cooked dinner, and equally certain
to hold his wife responsible for it,
while she, poor body, is afraid to
give the cook an order without
first giving an. apology for it-and
will never invade the kitchen, or
assist his wife in her domestic cam
paigps against "hired help" aos =
Yes, the subject is a difficult one
AS important as it is difficult.
But while we think that the ':refer-
ence" remedy is, worth trying, We
have little hope Of satisfactory re-
suits. If the plan were adopted
and carried out, it would uLfoubt-
edly accomplish good but there's
tbe rub. Some years ago, the far
mers organized labor reform clubs,
and attempted to reform the condi-
ton of plantation labor; but there
was lack Of proper cooperation,
and a want of unamimity, and the
effort came to naught. We give
this remedy which is somewhat
paradoxical: TIE only ecGy~to get on
weu gak hired help, IS to get Oh
e0itFoat 1t ). on the principle that
spins hayeesaXed many lives by not
being swallowed" We offer this
remedy because we know that it
will never be adopted, and expert,
ment will not prove that it is IN,

BETTER PLAN.

The Railroad Commission created
Standard Schedule of freight and
passenger rates, and at the same
time succeeded in creating general
dissatisfaction. The Columbia cor
respondent Of the Nesos Gnd Courier
informs the public, from time to
time, that the Commission is still
laboring-what the issue will be is
matter of serious conjecture. From
all parts of the State we hear adj
verse criticism of the new schedule,
and it appears that in many places
the new freight rates are less favor
able to the public than those form
eriy adopted by the roads them
selves.
In the matter Of passenger rates
the Commission has gone far to
promote social equality among tray
elers. There are HoW no second
class rates, and the railway officials
say that they are not able to adopt
them, so low have the passenger
rates been placed by the Commis-
sion. The natural consequence is
that the negroes crowd in among
the white passengers, and make the
interior of the passenger coaches
exceedingly fragrant while they rer-
der travelling extremely disagreea-
Bile. The matter has called forth
much unfavorable comment, and
various remedies have been sugges-
ted, among which this plan is Of
fered BY the Neecs and Courier:
This plan is to run a special
coach on every passenger train, the
seats in which coach shall be NAM
bered and reserved for passengers,
at an extra charge Of fifty cents a
seat, irrespective of the distance
travelled. Or, if preferred. the fee
can be regulated according to the
distance travelled. Then when a
passenger buys ticket he can pay
regular fare of s. 80 to Columbia,
for instance, and at the same time,
if he wishes, get a reserved seat
coupon from the ticket agent for
fifty cents extra. In this way per-
sons travelling with ladies and
children, or ladies travelling alone,
can secure themselves against. the
intrusion of Objectionable travelling
companions.
In orr judgment, far better
plan, would be to abolish the Rail
road Commission at the next ses-
sion of the General Assembly, and
go back to the old order of things.

SLAVES OF THEE SERVANTS.


While the men are deycting their
attention to the construction of rail-
ways, and various other subjects Of
various degrees Of Importance, the
women of Charleston are trying to
devise some means by which they
can mend the ways of domestic ser
wants. One Of them. writing to the
Neec$ md Courier, says that good
wages, kindness and presents are all
thrown. away upon servants that
in an experience Of seventeen years
she has never been able to fnd ole
that was reliable, truthful and
strictly honest. It's her opinion
thst the responsibility for this con-
dis;on 81 things lies with the en-
ploy: =. and she suggests, as a
rew&:H that no ore should hire a
servant without first having arefer-
enee from their last employer She
believes that the reference" plan
would give the good servants places,
and force the bad ones ''to starve
or do better"
If the remedy suggested by this
writer were adopted, we fancy that
the servants who have been making
her experience Of seventeen years"
would fare badly, for there was not
one good one, and therefore, not one
who could get a reference. The
ladies' deserve cur sympathy. but
they can derive little good from our
advice, for an adequate remedy goes
beyond our wisdom. And yet q
remedy is sorely needed. Hired.
help" is i5ired rexation. The aver
age colored cook is surly, snappish
and thoroughly untrustworthy. Her
jaw is something amazing and a.
most as much to be dreaded as that
of ancient Samson, even when he
