The vague, indefinite way of fix
ing the responsibility for such a
serious wreck as that of the past
week by stating that it is sup
posed to have resulted from the
blunde1 of an operator, is unsat-
isfactorY to the public who are
forced to patroniZe the railroads
There should be a legal investi-
cation and the blame for such an
accident fixed upon the right
man~and punishment applied.
The method of railroading In the
South is toe. lax and the remedy
is the law. 4f

dollars, the rate is one half Of mill.
If the gracation were upward instead
of downward, great combines like the
United States Steel corporation could
not continued under such a system Of
taxation. The second remedy is to
compel the trusts to render better and
cheaper service. The third remedy is
somewhat radical. 1t proposes that,
"if necessary, the State itself can
enter the industrial field as producer
and restore the force of competition
to its former supremacy by becoming
itself competitor Of the great trusts ;"
1t Is encouraging to note that The
trust issue has thus been taken W. by
the great body Of American lawyers ia
their national association. The yuc.-
tion Of great industrial combinations
IS essentially Il legal one. and the
remedy Tor trust evils must come
through a modification Of the State
and federal LAYS.

4 plan to induce good class OF
white immigrants to settle in this
State has been suggested by MIR.
Mathesan, broker Of Bennettsville,
and has attracted great deal of at
tention. Ho says that two thousand
sturdy Scotch laborers could be
brought to South Carolina at q cost
of about $4,000, or $3.50 for each
man. His plan is to have each county
take fifty settlers, which would en-
tail public expense Of S475. Fifty
settlers, though small number for q
county, would more than repay the
money spent in bringing them over in
industry, progressiveness and good
citizenship. The Scotch arc proven
bially thrifty, and they would prob
ably not be here long before becom-
ing landowners. The perplcxing is
sues of the race problem render any
practicable plan of immigration worthy
of serious thought. South Carolina
stands badly in need of State bu-
reau of immigration in order that her
splendid natural resources might bo
properly set forth to the world.

Edward NJ. Shepard, tho distin-
guished Brooklyn Democrat, ably and
scholarly defends the suffrage laws Of
the South in an article in the New
York Evening Post. He makes con-
vincing analysis of the subject, and
shows that tho solution Of tho negro
suffrage question must be left to the
enlightened public sentiment Of the
white men Of the South. He discuss
es the conditions existing in the
Southern States, and points out the
moral justification Of the suffrage
clauses in constitutions like those Of
South Carolina and Alabama. Re
garding the plan of some of tho Re-
publicans to reduce Southern repre-
sentation, he says that such legisla-
tion would not enfranchisc o single
black man, and would practically ex-
tinguish the hopes of the black race.
1.-The ballot" he declares, "has never
yet effectively gone to bodies of men
who have not, without tho ballot,
already demonstrated their strength,
material and moral.

Mr.. Thos. j. Lamottc, Of Columbia.
has gathered some interesting crimi-
nal statistics from the files of the
News and Courier for the first six
months of the present year. Omitting
all deaths from accidents, he finds
that for the first three months Of the
year there were 10 suicides and 81
homicidcs. From the first Of April to
the Both of June, II suicides and 62
homicides were recorded, making the
total for six months 119. The Grim
inal record Of the last quarter over the
first shows an increase of 50 per cent.
Mr.. Lamotte also finds that there is o
great increase over the record of a
similar nature for previous yers. This
is the record of South Carolina for q
period Of six months, convincing
proof of strong spirit OF lawlessness
and of the small value placed upon
human life.

rul manufacture. More and more the

At tho annual meeting Of the
American Bar Association last week,
a vigorous attack was made upon the
trusts through the report of the oom-
mittee on commercial law. The re-
port created CONSERVATION among the
corporation lawyers, who opposed its
reading. 1t was adopted, however, in an
amended form. The committee was
unanimous in its conclusion that mod
ern industrial combinations should be
stayed. The report says in part:
"The modern combination's primary
object is to control trade and COM
merce in plain articles Of production
and substitute more or less perfect
monopoly in the place of more or
less free competition. 1t changes
entirely the basic principle of con.
mercial relations between man and
man, aud if they are to continue to
grow aud develop in the future as in
the past, they will render necessary
most important changes in the prin-
oiples Of our commercial laws" The
report proposes three remedies. Tho
first is to tax the trusts to death, or to
tax them until their growth aud en-
largement ara impeded. Thefanchise
tax in almost all the States is so grad
ed as to tax the cmall corporation at
higher rate than the larger one. In
-onr own State, for instance, the tax
on the frst 100000 is one mill, and
over that amount and up to one million

THE RICE MARKET.

Advices from the South are of former
tenor. On the Atlantic coast a good
demand prevails with an extended in
quiry. At New Orleans movement past
week was the largest, with one excep-
ton, of any week since the opening of
the crop-the higher prices demanded
seemingly being no bar to enlarging
transactions. Advices from the inte-
rior-Southwest Louisiana and Texas
are of supporting character. Some of
the mills are closing for the seasonal
fact which is an added confirmation of
the reports regarding damage and de-
struction to large portion of the crop.
Cables and correspondence from
abroad note stronger feeling; transact
tions are restricted account of limited
offerings. Growing crops in the vari-
Gus districts are seriously damaged, and
in some sections almost total failure
is reported.
