Are They UnjustIy Convicted ?

Mr.. 8. P. Brooks was In town last week In
defense of a negro whom he believes to be I'M
Justly convicted of assault and battery, and
upon his presentation Of facts, the Judge
granted a new trial
Mr.. Brooks is doing this work because OF
his conscientious christian convictions that
Justice should be dealt out to all men alike
regardless Of color.
The Press and Banner commends Mr..
Brooks for his course, and partakes some
what OF his belief that too many negroes are
convicted, and we, further believe hat the
punishment inflicted is sometimes too severe.
Fol- instance, when a man is sentenced 70
pay $50 and costs, the sentence. seems small
but when 1t Is remembered that the prisoner
has been In jail until bis board TN at the jail
and other costs amount to $42, the sentence is
so severe, that few negroes can pay. One OF
the negroes, sentenced at this Court had lain
in iail for perhaps three mon ths--severe pun
ishment In itself. No account was taken Oh
that. Prisoners are sometimes given credit
for the period Of their imprisonment while
waiting trial. Iffines are made light enough
convicts turn money into the treasury.
b. When It is remembered that no white man.
or at most, exceeding few, are ever convicted
for any offence against the person, our juries
might: at least give helpless negroes the ad.
vantage of any possible doubt.
There is scarcely a Court held here that
there are not apparent hardshlps. Negroes
as q rule, are poor. and some times, perhaps
because of the consciousness OF their inno-
cence, they employ no attorney, and no doubt,
it is often the case that they are not impress
ed with the necessity of having counsel.
The Court should guard itself against the
possibility Of its machinery being turned III
to an engine for the oppression Of the weak.

SOUND SENSE.
This is the Rule Which Should Gov.
ern Spartanburg Herald.

Here Of late we have noticed several news
paper squibs to the effect that those who op
posed Tillnian have begun TO abuse him and
therefore Improve his chances for a second
term. So far as we have seen however, In
nearly every Instance the abuse has conn
from those who In 1890 were induced 10 vote
for him. Having been deceived, some allow
auce must he made for these men now that
things are shown 10 be so unlike what they
seemed.
The nti-administratinn men are remark.
ably fair and just In their criticisms. 1t is
true they commented on the acts Of the ad
mipistratlon and shovel up inconsistencies,
but that Is not only the privilege of the press,
but duty.
There IL just one point however that ought
10 be settled now, and hat Is, as to the legal
lily OF the party Of which Senator Irby is
Chairman. II That is the democratic party Ii
Is worse than folly 10 be all the while object
ing to its acts and luti,natlng that its orders
will not be regarded.
There Is no use to throw away all chance OF
success by interposiug unreasonable objec.
lions. Unless the differences of Two years
ago are healed and assurance Is given that
the minority of the Democrats will yield to
the majority In the coming contest, though
Governor Tillinan were worse than he Is and
more unworthy Than his record shows him,
he would he elected.
The rank aud nIe of the white people OF
this State ure, first OF all, Democrats. They
love their party for what It has done I'm The
past and what IL promises for the future.
They ure not to he drawn out of It nor driven,
and the sooner those who are TO oppose TILL
man recognize that the coming fight Is 10 he
strictly within the party and 10 end when the
Is named, the better 1t VIII be Tor
them.
This paper stands now where It stood two
years nso. We have found Governor Tillman
just about what we expected. When five
years ago the writer heard him make his
third public speech, In which he said he
could not by any possibility be made TO ac-
cept Office, we believed he was the oftice.Scek-
err he proved TO he. Since one by one, the
charges OF the campaign were relricted, since
the promises OF The campaign have been ig-
nored. we have found more reasons for oppos-
ing him than ever, but if he Is put up. even
with his record, rs the Democratic candidate.
the Herald will support him. We are not
ready 10 leave the party. and hence we are
bound TO support its nominee.

Sold Out.

Last Tuesday evening something was in the
air about the probability Of Augusta being
Hooded by the Savannah. Thinking to get
an item rs to the facts we telegraphed an in
quiry as to the condition of the river. In re-
ply, we heard not a word Of the water, but
were lelegrnpbcd 2i3 words of the purest rot
about the CHILEAN Dificulty-a subject In
which we have taken 10 Interest whatever
and have not ut any time even referred to 1t
in our paper. The idea OF the United States
going to Var with. or picking a fuss with, a
little island composed chiefly OF high snow
capped mountains, some earthquakes. and a
few lazy citizens is too preposterous to receive
serious consideration from anybody.

Governor Tillman has said that he intends
TO elect q Legislature next fall 10 suit him.
AS the LaurPns Advertiser says. this wi ] d.
vide the candidates into two classes. One
class will have no opinion of their own and
will only be the tubes through which Gov
ernor TilIman will do some of his blowing.
They will measure themselves by the Till
man yardstick. They will virtually confess
that they wart to so 10 Columbia to have no
opinion of their own no will oftheir own, no
independence of thought. They want to go
to Go what Governor Tillman tells them.
They will be Governor Tillman's representa-
tive. This class Of candidates will surely be
found next summer. for some will think
that's the way TO be elected. The other class,
as our friend the Laurens Advertiser says,
will he inca who haze their own ideas about
things, whose intellects are free from the
hypnotiZing Influence of Tlllman. They are
men with nerve, courage and convictions.
They may have voted for Tillman during The
last campaign or not. They may have been
among his strongest supporters. They may
haye beed anti -Tillmanites or even Haskell
ties. II matters not. They are men high
and strong enough to do what they
think Is best and wiSet. These are the Kind
OF men to make good lawmakers. They will
not he afraid To refuse to vote against the I'M
wise suggestions OF the Governor whoever he
may be. and they will have the manhood 10

Wednesday, Jan. ~, 1892.


Erskine College, at Due West, was discov-
cred to be on fire last Thursday night about
twelve o'clock. The building and its contents
were a total loss.
The people of Abbeville. as we'll as all Chris
tian people everywhere. are sorry TO hear OF
the calamity that has befallen the Associate
Reformed Presbyterians.
1t was the oldest UNCONVENTIONAL college
building in the State. and had served the pur-
poses for which it was built for nearly half o
century.
Since its erection the religious demon ina.
ton 10 which It belonged has grown in mum
hers, In wealth and in educational zeal, and
already, before the destructive flames had
broken out, arrangements had been made &c
build a newer and grander structure-on
which would be more imposing In appear,
ance. and which would better answer the evel
demands of the times.
1t Ia natural for the people Of the church
everywhere and OF Due West in particular, tc
be temporarily discouraged and momentarily
cast down because OF the loss which has JUS
befallen them. But they will soon recover
from their depression, and take on new life
new hope. INT renewed energy. Friends viii
make voluntarily contributions. and the
friends TO the church will be more ready thar
ever to lend ~ helping hand.
In work and in heart they will stick closer
% the old institution which has for It's founda
ton q place in the hearts of the people-some
thing better and more lasting than brick an q
mortar.
II on the spur ofthe moment we may be al
lowed to make a suggestion, we would sug
gest that each congregation take'a v~olunta
ry hat collection once q month for the relic
of the building committee who should go or
and build the needed structure, whether they
nave the money or not. The people will re
spoud, sooner or later. They have never gone
back on old Erskine.
Second-Let the Associate Reformed Pres
terrain open a column in which to ackpowl
edge the receipt of all voluntary subscriptions
that may be sent in.
The good work will go on. The structure
will be rebuilt, and that institution Of learn
ing will continue to grow in usefulness.
!. It is only some wood that has been burned
and it is only q few brick that have been
thrown down. The institution itself still
lives. and Its duties and responsibilities TO an
active and living present are growing with Its
Increasing years.
With religious zeal the children of the
men who built thai old college, will stand by
the new structure. In holy reverence for the
memory of the sainted dead, they Will,
as II were, erect a prouder monument In
honor OF those whose history, like that
Oft old building, has been finished.
