ran to point to and the precedent of
his success to urge them.
1t is generally understood that
Judge COthran can not resign to en-
ter the contest for Congress without
injury to the State and damage to
lltlgants who have cases in his hands.
In these circumstances we believe he
made on unfortunate mistake when
he became candidate. We do not
question his motives. The people
have nothing to do with them. Facts
are all we ought to consider The
fact is that n judge ON the bench is a
candidate for Congress seeking the
suffrages Of the people among whom
he sits as judge. The people owe it
to themselves, for their own safety
aid to secure the sanctity of the
bench in the present and its purity
in the future, to forget the love and
respect they justly hold for J. S.
Cothran the man. and to declare by
an overwhelming adverse majority
their rebukc of the judge who active
ly engages in politics and their pur.
pose that no man shall be on the
bench and a candidate before them
for other honors.-GreenuiUc Neacs,

Cut Him Down.

The people of the Third Con-
gressional District, in common with
those Of all South Carolina, love and
honor Judge Cothran, but they ought
to defeat him in the contest he is max.
ing for Congress. He is violating a
vitality important principle and trying
to make a very dangerous precedent.
The property, liberty and lives Of
the people are secured only by the
purity of the bench and it's freedom
from the influences Of politics. For
that reason the power Of electing
judges is taken from the people and
vested in the Legislature, terms are
made long and liberal, salaries are
provided. The spirit Of our customs
and laws is to the uplifting Of our
judges beyond the need Of seeking
popular applause or the favor Of in.
dividuals.
Judge Cothran's character and re.
cord give assurance that he is, 80 far
as man can be, beyond the power Of
selishness in the performance Of his
official duties. But no man is be-.
yond the suspicion Of disappointed
or defeated litigants and it is easy to
imagine how the rage Of persons
against whom lie isrcquircd to decide
causes would seize on his candidacy
as pretext for shaking the conf.
dence of their friends and others in
the purity Of his motives. lie offers
weapon to all who are tempted by
passion or self interest to assail the
administration Of justice and throw
dirt on the judicial robes.

- The Augusta Chronicle Of the 20tl
publishes the following fiat contradic
tion of the statement reported to
have been made by Mr.. b. II. Till.
man in his recent address at Aiken
The statement of Col. Butler and
the letter Of Prof. Joyncs leave no
way out for AIr. Tillman but to deny
the correctness Of the reports Of his
remarks at Aiken, or Mr.. Tillman
having used statement in Il public
speech which he declared was made
to him by Prof. Joyncs, will have to

without any equivocation whatsoever.

fessor Joyner Of the South Carolina
College that the chemist OF the Col.

cost of analysis Mr.. Tillman included
the amount paid for the laboratory,
which is n permanent investment, and
the expense Of collecting fertilizer

the cost has been about $40 for each,
