A BREACH Of CONFIDENCE.

The recent trial in Columbia
not only disclosed bad state Of
affairs with certain State officers
but it also disclosed a condition
which Should not exist IN 4
bank. The Suppositiou is that
business in a bank is a cont
dental relation, and when one
of the officers voluntarily as
sumeS the role of detective and
exposes the banks transactions
with its patrons, that officer is
not fl TO have the confidence of
business lren The cashier Of
the bank of Chester who marked
a bill that he had paid out, and
then exposed the depositor has
not helped himself in the estima
tiop of the business world, espec-
tally when it is believed that
city politics prompted the act,
aud that his conduct was not
prompted by a desire for the
public good. Did we have a gov
erning position in that bank at
Chester we certainly would ask
for the resignation Of Cashier
Gage. because ordinarily the ex
posing OF a patrons business by
the officers Of a bank might
lead to damage suits, not to say
the destruction of the confidence
the patrons should have that
their business relations are con-
fdential.

THERE IS DANGER AHEAD.

It's our opinion there will have
to be an over-hauliug OF our reg
istration laws, before trouble sets
in. The receut confusion in Dor
chester county is a pointer which
should make the law makers sit
up and take notice, and tighten
up loose places in the law before
serious trouble arises. Unless
something is done the State will
ind itself in an embarrassing con.
dition, and especially will this
be the case with the congreSsion-
al districts.
II is no new thing for men to
take advantage of the execution
Of our registration laws when
things do not go as they wish,
and unless some action is taken
by the legislature, we stand in
great danger Of having our cleo
tive system shattered. This will
not be brought ABOUT oy those
the laws was intended to prevent
from exercising the rights Of
voting, but by the class who have
been benefited, aud because they
meet with some disappointment,
get defeated for Office, or fail TO
carry some other object. they will,
to crafty a spirit Of revenge dis
rupt the system that assures
white supremacy in South Caro-
sina.

A sensation was sprung by a
by Louisville liquor concern
voluntarily offering to return TO
the State $4,000 due the State
for orercharges. The strange
part Of it IS, the State bad no
claim against This concern, as
what business the old State board
had with them had been settled
before the dispensary went out Of
business, and why this concern
slould now voluntarily come for
ward and offer to give up this
large amount Of money is mys-
terry. unless perhaps they had be-
come conscience stricken. This
$50, 900 will so to the school fund,
and it will be gratefully recelv-

the State, would follow the ex-
ample set &c the Bernhelm Dis,

so far as this newspaper is con-

When prosecution reaches

We see no need TO become
alarmed because of the Slight
slump in cotton. The condition
is not natural. and the price will
not only get back, but in our
opinion will go higher. Every
indication is for a still higher
price, but our advice IS. to mar
ket the staple until all debts are
paid. 1t is TOO risky to hold cot
ton when prices exceed y cents.
but the man who is not in debt
can afford to take the risk and
we feel sure he will make money
by it.

makes no difference because Huo-

Few Beds In Sac cad.

About 80 per cent Of Bagdad's pop
ulation possess no beds, These poor
people rest on blankets spread on the
floors Of their houses in the winter
and on the roofs in the summer. Owing
10 the excessive heat Of these regions
sleep is made impossible elsewhere
than on the roof or in the open gar
dens. 1t is an interesting sight to see
how the women at sunset emerge from
their houses to prepare the evening
meal on the roof and spread tho he'd
ding for the night Inasmuch the
climate is very dry, there is little to
fear from exposure to the night air.
While a considerable number Of the
roofs are surrounded 10y latticework

by far the larger number are quite ex-

Quisitive neighbors.
