APOLOGY AND ENCtSE.

From Columbia Register, 4lh.
Several papers have criticised The
Registers story of the recent sena-
tional trial in Lexington Count, and
in today's Register is published
letter from Chester lady taking The
Register to task on the same score
The Register freely acknowledges
that in its first days report of the
Harman trial there were details IN
fit for publication, but it has valid
excuse to offer, which it hopes will
be satisfactory to its readers. That
report was not received in The Reg
lister office until after 3 a. NJ, on The
day it was published. The first
mail train leaves Columbia at 4.30 a.
m. There was not over an hour III
which to put that report in type,
read the proof, make up the forms,
send them to press, print over 200
papers for that first mail train ard
send themto the depot half mile
away from the ofice. There was not
a second to spare and the report was
rushed into print without inspection
by the night editor. Had he had
time to even glance over it, be would
have stricken out the offensive pas
sages. We hope just public will
make due allowance for the exigen-
cies of the case, and pardon this un-
avoidable and unintentional devia-
ton of The Register from its policy
of keeping its columns as free as
possible from reading matter which
cannot be read by a fathers to b s
family circle. It was an exceptional
case, and we hope and trust II a
there will never again be repetition
of the circumstances which caused
The Register unwittingly to offend
