FRIDAY. Aug. 10. 1884,
LEVEE LETTING.

When the members OF the Gen,
eral Assembly and of the Beard al
Commissioners # the Eff b L"nis.
lana Levee District were recently
confronted with the necessity ul
formulating some plan through
which the Indebtedness If the
Board might he liquidatrd, Iltlga.
I, ton averted an,i it's credit restored,
1t was also known that large
amount Of repairing and raising OF
levees Eust be Immediately entered
upon IN order to put our - stem in
comparative safety.
1t was proposition, entirely
plain and evident, that ~ithou,
credit and without funds, and With
protested warrants and suits actu-
ally begun by uneasy creditors, the
letting out of this necessary work
was, III not Impossible. to be acc"m
plished only at pxnfbitaat figures
to speculative contractors.
The General Assembly, as IN well
known, authorized the Lev-e Boar
to increase the cotton tax TO one
dollar per bale. thus providing n
fund sufficient to liquid ate it's floats
ing Indebtedness and to pay The
.interert on the bO.idpd debt. On
last Monday the Board increased
the cotton tax to one d.llar per
bale and pledged thS revenues OF
1894 and past years to the pays
ment or the outstanding indebted
ness and then proceeded to let on,
the contemplated work.
The Bucghorn levee was let to

BRIEF NOTES

A large quantity of linen cloth was
stolen from Chinese laundry on l. street.
between Third and Fourth, Sunday night.
District Attorney Ryan goes to Gait to-
day to attend the examination OF George
II. Morrell for an attempt TO commit a
criminal assault on a girl who lives there.
Charles Brady, railroad man, struck

While some of the police officers were
engaged in their customary pistol prac-
tice in the rear OF the jail on Sunday
morning the sentries near by became
alarmed and sent warning TO headouar-
tiers. The cause of the shooting was soon
explained.

ROYAL BAKING POWDER.

ton implies a voluntary submission OF
matters TO persons mutually agreed upon
To decide them. Ii force be used either
to compel submission or to fix upon the
arbltrators, 1T ceases TO be arbitration, and
takes on the ordinary incident OF suit.
10 make such proceedings compulsory,
therefore. there must be Judge or
Judges designated by law, process to
compel the attendance of defendants, and
power 10 enforce the performance of the
decree; IN other words. such proceedings
would be an exercise of the Judicial
power, and the choice OF such tribunal
must be comfortable TO law.
Now, the chief value of arbitration is
that the arbitrators are not bound by the
ordinary rules of law, but may make any
award which they may DEEM just or rea-
sonable, provided il be not absurd or i'm
possible. 1t IS just ut this point that
compulsory arbitration would fail. ii.
Tor instance, workmen had agreed to la
Dor Tor their employer certain time for
certain rate OF wages, no tribunal con-
stltuted by law could disregard or impair
the obligations of the contract. though
arbitration, voluntarily chosen, might
say that the circumstances had so changed
as to make the JUL performance OF the
contract inequitable. Ii is incredible. too
that any law Will be found to compel a
manufacturer to carry on his business at
a loss, TO take from him its control and
put it into the hands OF the operatives, or
To employ certain men and refuse to EN-
ploy others. 1t is equally incredible that
1t should compel the workingman to la
Dor greater number of hours for less
amount OF wages than he had agreed, or
to make his service compulsory, since
this would be to re-establish slavery un-
der different name.
Ia other words. compulsory arbitration
logically results either in confiscation to
the employer or III slavery to the en-
pAoye. Even if it stopped short OF this
and permitted the employer to discon-
tinue his business, if lie could not afford
to pay the wages decreed, it would not
only work a serious injury to the en-
ployes who are thrown out OF work, but
To others who stand ready to take their
places. The truth is, that the right to
contract and TO have contracts respected
is one which cannot be taken away with
out involving the parties in difficulties
tenfold more serious, and throwing tn 9
whole social system into confusion.
Where the question turns upon the rate of
wages or the number OF hours Of labor, a
voluntary arbitration frequently affords
a satisfactory method of adjustment; but
where it involves the control OF ones
business, it is something which sell-re-
speeding employer will not be likely TO
surrender, even at the behest of a.bitra-
tors.

SOUTH CAROLINA D1spENsARIEs.

Governor Tillman Viii Issue Procla-
nation Reopening Them.
COLUMBIA Is. c., July Ex-Governor
Tiilman stated to-day that he would
issue his proclamation tomorrow re-
opening the dispensaries on August lst.
He says he is determined TO enforce the
law more vigorously than ever. The
Governor explained his position, saying
the decision against the constitutionality
of the law was due to prejudices of the
Supreme Court. He SAID that their de-
cision did not affect the Act OF 1893, the
necessary enforcement OF which since
April 18th, when the decision was pro-
nounced. he explained by saying that he
determined not TO leave the saloon men
an opportunity to a test case. lie appears
To take it tor granted that Justice-elect
Gray, who succeeded Justice McGowan
on July 10th, is settled in his opinion as
to the laws validity. Gray WIS Presi-
dent of The State Senate when the law
was passed, and assisted in its enactment.
The Governors proposed action causes
the greatest anxiety. His opponents
cOnstrue it as setting at defiance the
States highest tribunal. IL is, more
over, plain that the Governor Is In an
ugly mood, and viii resort 10 efforts more
rigorous than ever TO crush out the oppo-
sition. Many who previously joined in
the effort to render the law inactive now
say it is tight between 'fillman and the
grog shop, and will keep hands oil.
