What Harrison Should Do.

Much has been said in the newspapers as to
the probable policy Of President-eeot liar
rlson, and many suggestions have been made
TO the effect that he ought 10 make declara.
ton OF principles, as regards the Intention of
the Government towards the South.
If 1t were in order for the Press and Banner
to make suggestion, we would suggest that
he write piece especially to the coored peo-
pie. According 10 our way of seeing things,
his election has already cost several negroes
their lives, while many others have gotten
themselves into serious trouble because Of
the delirum which has followed Republican
success.
TO be specific. The negroes everywhere
seem greatly elated, and the prospect or hope
OF return to the "good old days when the
negroes run riot over the whites and were
protected in so doing by United States bayo
nets, has made many Of them offensive to
their white neighbors, and in some instances
actually insulting and tantalizng. OF course,
no revolution can take place which will pro-
tect negroes in personal insults TO white men,
and as q result we believe moro negroes have
been killed and maltreated in Southern States
during the last two months than during any
two months since 1876. II President Harrison
would do the proper thing by the negroes hc
might do them great service in admanish'
ing them to continue to behave themselves ms
good citizens. without provoking the hostility
Of their white neighbors. The Government
is powerless 20 prevent bloodshed when men
are irritated and goaded to deeds of violence,
and the sooner this fact is understood, the
better for all.

Death of Former Citizen of Ab5e-
willie Comfy.

Elm another column notice is given OF the
death of Hon. William w. Smith, son OF Mr..
Charles Smith of Cokesbury, who has, for
many years, been an honored citizen Of the
State Of Arkansas.
An aged father is in deepest sorrow for the
premature derth Of anoble son. But record
as bright and as honorable as his was, is
worth thousand years Of medioc-acy. y
life of fifty years Of honor and usefulness Is
worth ages Of useless life. Viewed from this
standpoint, the father whose son has just
been cut down, has all of which to be proud.
The father whose son was gallant soldier, a
distinguished lawyer, that was elevated TO
the Supreme Bench of q State like Arkansas.
is honored above his fellow-citizens, and that
son, though dead, reflects the highest credit
upon his parents and his native county.
The members Of the Bar, the brethren OF
the Bench, and the Governor of the State OF
Arkansas, have joined in expressions OF love
and praise for the memory Of him whose
brilliant record shed honor and fame on them
and the home of his adoption.
Wherever the sons Of Abbevillc may 90.

none Of them have risen to greater promi-
inenee, so early in life, than did The Hon
William w. Smith, whose career is now end

Kind Words from Across the Sen.

y lady in Paisley, Scotland, writes TO a
friend in this State, in reference IL the Press
and Banner. While VIC would not in oG1
vainest moment, set up Il claim for the great
merit which she attributes to the Press ana
Banner, yet it is nevertheless gratifying to
know that an impartial intelligent reader has
written so kindly of us. Whether the reader
agrees with her or not, we trust to be pardon
ed for publishing the following:
wish to thank yon for all the nice papers
you so kindly send Inc. | particularly like
the dbJeriite Press d7ld Bdnner-therc is al
ways so many interesting and useful items in
it. None of our papers are so good. An lriSli
gentleman who edits a magazine in connec'
ton with the Young Men's Christian 4lSsoci-
alton, was so much pleased with 1t, that nc
asked to have Il copy sent 10 him occasional.
ly; so we have sent them very often, and he
finds them OF great service in connection with
his magazine. SO you see the 4lG6eUiHe Press
and Bo1lncr is having wider circulation and
greater influence than you imagine.

to us, brought a letter from another State con.

Have Mark Twain's Innocents Come
Home?

When a man looks as wise as mule and
talks about the "innocent holders Of town
ship bonds" we are struck with amazement.
Is there any such person as an ''innocent"
holder of township bonds? If so, what is
meant by the term "innocent?" Does il
mean q plain gudgeon who has foollshly part
ed with his money? If so, and ii is intended
to give him protection" application for
guardianship should be made before the Pro-
bate Judge. His powers are ample in all cases
where it can be shown that the Individual il
incapable of managing his own affairs.
But we hold that there is no such sane per-
son as an "innocent" holder OF township
bonds. The face Of the bond, in words as clear
as 1t Is possible for the English language 10
express 1t, shows what it is, and, except in
proper cases for action by the Probate Judge,
the purchaser Of the township bond is party
to the transaction, whether binding or not on
the people, and he should realize the losses, as
well as the profits arising therefrom. He is
not more clearly entitled to the profits than
to the losses in his speculation.
Another word as TO the "innocents" We
learn that the Charleston capitalists have not
invested dollar in these bonds and we are
told that they have taken them onlyas collat-
eral security to ensure the payment of money
loaned to persons who are Of themselves la-
BILE for the debt. AS n rule, the Charleston
people are the wisest and most Sagacious men
on the face of the earth. They seldom or new
er put their money where it will not yield n
fair return and where the principal is not
sure to be paid. If any man in Abbeville
county is ever at doubt as TO how he should
act, then let him find out how the Charleston
capitalists do, and then let him do as they do.
Ninety-nine times out of a hundred he will
be safe IN following the example OF q Charles
ton capitalist.
The credit Of the State can not be more in
volved in the payment of an illegal claim,
than would be the credit OF an individual
who refused to pay an improper claim.

The Clemson lscUupSt.

We see by the newspapers that the Govern
or will withhold his signature from the Act
to accept the Clemson estate.
Because the Governor had not the bill he'
fore him for three days prior to the adjourn
ment of the Legislature, the Constitution pro-
vides that he may, at his own discretion,
withhold his approval or disapproval until
the next sitting OF the Legislature.
For his exercise of this Constitutional
right some Of the newspapers seem displcas'
cd, and have criticized the act.
1t appears TO us. that no more ccnSurc
should attach TO the Governor FOR vetocing
the bill or withholding his approval, than
was attached to the I.ieutcnant-Govcrnor for
casting his vote for the bill.
Let those who favor the Clemson College
be as fair TO Governor Richardson as those
who oppose it have been to Licutcnant-Gor-
ernOr Maudcn.
