The BrOthcr.in.Law Incident

Our State seems to be enjoying n very bad case Of
brother in-l.w ut this time. Mt. Morgan has been d..
pointed to Melbourne and credited to this State. tiur
people do not like this. They have no sort of 0bjec-
lion to Morgan, but they do seriously Object to one,
who Is not a citizen, and who wrote in the interest Of
B!aine's election, being saddIed Oh South Carolina
We We're willing to be left ont IN the cold so far as
foreign appointments are concerned, but We do moi
wish even n good man md Democrat from another
State, or from NO Slate, to be Set down Mt Melbourne
to our credit. Another case II brothrr-in.law Is the
appointment Of Mr.. John Bacon, Of Culumbin, to
to Uruguay. lie may bea proper man for the place
but 1t is unfortunate for his brother.i law, Senator
Butler. When Gen. Grant got oil Of bis unclcs and
cousins In good places, q ringing cry went up from
the whole country against nepOtism. Now when the
first foreign appointment from South Carolina Is a
brother in.law VI our member or the National Dem
0cratic Committee, and the second brother In law OF
Senator Butler, II would seem that these two distin-
yuished men entertained the same kind Of disihter-
ested patriotism that stirred FlanniGan's bosom when
be exclaimed. In the National Republican Convention
of 1876; "What nrc we here for, II 1t Is not to divide
the Offices" When Grover Cleveland was elected It
was tho hope Of many that all appointments would
be made On o business basis. But the politicians have
taken matters in hand and one can hear the ~clanking
Of the old mrcliine as 1t turns. We would suggest TO
our Senators and Representatives to appoint no man
to office who ~nIplies for one, unless he Is n business
man md making a good living without office. These
appl cants that hang around Washington with loag
~p'titio1s are not worth their weight In gully dirt.
They ure generally broken down politicians. II our
chosen Representatives would turn their backs on all
such and 60 to different cnnnties Of the State and
select men Of character and integrity, who are hard
ut work at home, supporting their fhtIiilies, paying oil
their honest debts, dollar for dollar, und put them In
good places, bath at home md In tho departments Mt
Washington, then they would be CARRYING out the
will Of the people. But they no nfrnid to do this.
They will not take a single man from the ranks, how.
ever worthy he may be md give him o good place.
