THE SOUTHERN'S BIG PLANS.

The Yorkville Era quotes an
official of the Southern Railway
as recently saying in YorkvilIe
that "the Southern is under con
tract with the government TO
deliver 400 cars of coal daily at
the naval station in Charleston,
beginning the first of next year,
and this will mean that at least
25 trains will pass through here
in each direction" "
According to the same author-
ity "the road old Three C's) is
being completed through the
mountains of North Carolina in
to Tennessee and will connect
at Johnson City with roads to
coal fields OF Virginia and Ten
nessee and with the Southern's
Cincinnati connections. Through
passenger trains from Cincinnati
to Charleston via this route will
then be put into service. The
work of building the connecting
link from Marion to johnson
City is being rapidly pushed and
all contractors are said 10 be un
der an agreement to have their
work completed by Sept. l. The
entire roadbed of the old Three
C's will be overhauled and heavy
steel rails put down, aud in
places the roadbed changed'
These Improvements however,
it appears, are conditioned upon
a decision favorable to the South
ern in the famous merger suit.
Wonder if that railroad man
said anything about building a
depot at Lancaster?

A NEWSPAPER IN JEFFERSON.

Jefferson is to have an uptodate
newspaper, which means that
fresh impetus is to be given to
the development of that already
rapidly growing town. A COM
pany, composed of progressive
citizens of Chesterfield county,
has purchased the Carolina Citi-
zen, which has been published for
the past two or three years in
Cheraw by Mr.. J. Z. Meehan,
and will remove the entire plant
to Jefferson. Mr.. Meehan will
continue as editor of the Citizen
He will of course move to Jeffer
son.
The promoters of the Jefferson
newspaper enterprise are to be
congratulated upon the wisdom
shown in the selection of an
editor. Mr.. Meehan, who is a
native of Lancaster county, we
believe, is a vigorous, forceful
writer and has the courage Of his
convictions. He also has excel
lent ideas as to how a newspaper
-hOuld be conducted.

Printers Devil.

There's a reason for all the col
loquialisms used in the trades, the
expressions being generally used,
while the explanation of origin
is usually known to only a few.
Next to the word ssscab, which
is now we'll enough known to be
put in dictionary, the one prob
ably most familiar to the public
is the printers devil. !" Ninety
per cent. of the printers do not
know why he is so called.
AIdus Manutius, the story goes,
was printer in Venice to the
holy church and the doge. and
employed negro boy to help him
in his Office. The boy was be-
lieved to be an imp of Satan by
supertitious people In Venice.
and in order to protect him from
persecution Manutius made a
public exhibition of him and in
vlted any who did not believe he
was flesh and blood to come
toward and pinch him. The peo-
pie were satisfied, but the name.
the ssprinter's devil. had come
into too general use to be
dropped and to this day the
young imps of Satan who 60 in a

are called printers devils.

Back to the Farm.

l. 1uc COftluucu anu Idpiu iiSS
in the price of foodstuffs, wear
ing apparel and, in fact, all the
necessaries of life. is becoming a
serious question to those who live
within the gates of cities and
towns and especially to salarled
men and wage earners. The cost
oe living is so great that the or
binary income of the wage Garner
is not sufficient to meet it. From
this unequal contest a great
many will retire and 60 back to
the farm, where they can lead
the simple and inexpensive life
and where they can make some
thing more than the cost of liv-
ing by raising surplus products
for the market.
For the past quarter of a cen
fury the drift has been constantly
towards the towns and cities and
especially towards manufacturing
centers, where employment could
be found esily. The country dis
tricts have been depopulated and
many of the New England farms.
with their quaint houses and out
buildings have been abandoned,
their owners closing their doors
behind them md faring forth to
the cities in quest of more remun-
erative employment. But these
were days of the cheap foodstutts,
the days when butter and eggs
and chickens, farm and garden
products and the fruits of the or
chards were so cheap as to be
practically unstable. Ambitious
young men and women could sup
port themselves easily on the
farm and produce a surplus; but
as there was no market for their
surplus, it was left on their
hands, a memento of useless
effort.
These conditions have changed.
The products of the farm and
garden and orchard are now so
valuable that the wanderers are
returning. The abandoned farms
are being re-inhabited and are all
the more productive, because OF
the years that they have lain fai-
low. The old homes are showing
signs of life. The old roofs are
patched or re-shingled, and that
sense of mystery that haunts
every unoccupied house has been
driven away by the appearance OF
life and motion. Elsewhere be-
sides i'm New England the move
ment from the congested cities to
the farms is being observed.
The urban workers are worse of
today than they have been In
years in spite of labor unions and
all adventurous aids, while the
rural districts, and especially tia.
food producing sections, are more
prosperous than they have ever
been.
The American people 60 at
things with rush and usually
overdo them. They have over
done this business of leaving the
farm and have made city life en-
tirely too strenuous. To restore
the equation they are now retrac-
ing their steps.-Memphis News

The Freedom Of the Press.

LIE auJuSlilcnI III epo iooiel
Of the public press so that it will
harmonic with the protection Of
the reputation and private rights
of citizens, is one of those deli.
cate problems which it has never
been found possible to settle by
legal limitations.
| The law may lay down general
rules based on weIl-ascertained
principles. but it is difficult tc
say just how much may properly
be printed concerning public Off.
Gals, or private citizens, who
come prominently irto the public
filed of view, and great deaI
must be left to the judge who
presides. This is particularly
the case in England, where the
judges enjoy a certain latitude in
decidlng a case. In this connec-
ton a cablegram to the New York
Herald of Feb. Z, from London,
recites that on Tuesday, the 9th
inst, the Court of Appeals rem
dered decision that newspapers
cannot be compelled by the
courts to divulge their sources OF
information except under partic-
ular circumstances.
The point was raised in Libel
suit against trade paper. The
lower court ordered the defend
ants to disclose the name of the
informant on whose statement
the alleged libel was based. The
Court of Appeals reversed the
order regarding the disclosure of
the name of their informant, but
decided that the plaintiff had the
right to ask the defendants what
information they possessed in
Guiding their belief that their
alleged. libellous comment was
justified.
The papers in the United States
which are most successful i'm eS-
Gaping conviction or adverse judg-
ments for libel are those that en-
gage in the most violent vitupera-
ton and in retailing the most
shameful scandals concerning
persons in high public or social
station. Such publications US
ually have the effect to eXtort
money from others who dread t.
be brought before the public in q
scandalous light while they secure
revenge on those who have re-
fused to subscribe, or have other
wise gained the enmity of the
proprietors. Persons thus scan
dalized fear worse if they should
bring suit, and so the slanderers
escape.
The career of such publica-
ton which has been able with alb
solute impunity for many years
to exploit the most prominent
persons i'm the chief American
cities upon the basis of forced
tribute, is a remarkable example.
1t has been also successfully car.
ried on in other cities, not ex-
cepting our own, while respect
able publications have not es'
capped numerous attacks, for pub
locations which were intended tc
be friendly and complimentary OIL
when just criticisms were visited
upon the laches of public officials.
| 1t is difficult for the statutes
to discriminate between the va.
rieties of publications that may
be charged as libelous. and there.
fore much is left to the courts
whose standard of Interpretation
seems to be as uncertain as are
the statutory definitions. 1t is to
be doubted if the libel laws OF
louisiana can be amended to
make them any more satisfactory
than they are.-Picayune.

was shot from ambush and INSTANTLY
killed Monday night while returning
10 her home from the home of w

John Hawkins, a young married man
ana the father of several small chill
dren, after being confronted with let
tiers taken from the dead Woman's

The assassination of the young wo-

left his home, instituted an investiga
ton.

GOES AGAINST TAXPAYERS
Council Turns Down The Property
Owners Remembrance
WILL OBEY WARREN COMPANY'S ORDERS
DECIDES TO PAVE SECOND
STREET REGARDLESS OF
FORMER PROTESTS.

By a vote of four to three the coun-
Gil turned down the remonstrance Of
the Second street property owners to
the paving of that thoroughfare,
Councilmen Bridges, Kirkman and
Tausick voting aye and Councilmen
Glasford, Mexican, Bachtold and
Durham, no, to the motion to allow
the prayer of the petitioners who OBJ
jected to the paving.
The preliminaries to the discussion
on the question were started by the
report of City Attorney Blandford
who held that the city had gone so
far in the matter already that it could
be compelled by mandamus to pave
the street. He also held it would be
poor plan for the council to be bound
by the Kirkman resolution in paving
matters and that it did not in any
case apply to the paving Of Second
street.
kirkman CALCULATES.
Kirkman declared he did not wish
to enter into an argument with the
legal department, but that he drew
the resolution and that it was intend
ed to cover all proposed improve
ments.
Glasford declared Kirkman, not the
street committee, had added outside
districts The question was then side
tracked by a resolution on the Fourth
street paving matter.
1t was brought up again by the in
PRODUCTION of the remonstrance of the
property owners, who were repre-
sented by C. c. Gose.
A sharp rally between Attorney Gose
and Frank Reese of the Warren Con-
strhction company was the funny
feature Of an unusually dry meeting.
In Gay Repartee.
Reese denied that Gose was on the
payroll of the Warren Construction
company, and the latter retorted that
'he was one of the few who were
not" And everybody laughed but the
council.
Reese said the company was willing
to proceed with the paving and take
its chances on the legal part.
Tausick thought that if the council
had made a mistake and gotten itself
bound legally to do the paving the
city. and not the property owners,
should pay for the mistake.
Bridges, who came in late, moved
that the prayer of the petition be al
lowed and it was voted down.
The consideration of bids on timber
for the bulkheading of Mill creek was
laid over until the adjourned meeting
at 1880 tonight.
