Just about the most unpleasant
feature of editing a newspaper Is the
impossibility Of pleasing everybody.
Those people who are most anxious
to see their names in print are the
very first ones to raise row when
some minor mistake Is made. The
newspaper business. all told, Is about
the most unfruitful labor in the world.
Mighty little money, and no thanks at
all, tells the tale in nutshell.-Gaff-
ney Ledger.
Sounds like there is something the
matter with the Ledger again; but
just what it is we do net know. OF
course the newspaper business is hard
enough, and equally Of course nobody
can come to know the fact except in
the light of practical experience; but
then grumbling is not calculated to
make 1t any easier. So far as pleasing
everybody is concerned no one should
try. for even If such thing were pos
sible it would be wrong When the
editor talks Of expecting thanks he
only causes those who take notice at
all to open their eyes in wonder. What
has he done to expect thanks for-the
man who is generally presumed to do
all thanking himself? And money!
Don't be sordid. If the editor Of the
Ledger will take something for his
liver, maybe he would feel better.

Perjury and the Law.

More than ordinary interest has
been aroused in New York by the con-
viction of man for perjury. Last
| summer a judge In that state averred
that lying when under oath had be-
come 80 common and professional
witnesses so numerous that It was
almost impossible to discover the
truth in any case in court. He point
ed out that the most obvious cases of
perjury were allowed to go unpunish-
ed. Only short time ago 1t was dis
covered, by accident, that a lawyer
who had been disbarred for ten years,
was the victim of conspiracy hatch
ed by the legal advisers of a great COR
poration. Almost every day there are
fragrant instances of perjury. The
cure lies in drastic punishment for the
guilty, and II might not be amiss to
force the attorneys for whose cases
perjury was committed, to prove to the
satisfaction Of the court that they had
nothing whatever, to do with the crime.
News and Courier. ....-..
Although it is a New York case that
Is being referred to 1t s not to be pre-
sumed; that the News and Courier is
concerned about that far off common
wealth only in 80 far as 1t furnishes
intimation of seeking reform that is
equally desirable In South Carolina.
Perjury has grown all too common,
and with the heavy premium that has
been placed upon this most dangerous
and dastardly Of crimes, the fact Is not
surprising. There are all kinds Of
complaints about the NAL administra-
ton of the law, miscarriage Of justice,
ETC., but If this one evil of perjury
could be blotted out there would be
no further trouble. OF course 1t Is not
to be suggested that the practice OF
perjury is confined to any particular
class Of cases; but the most prolific
source of It, probably Is the damage
suit industry. The law Of such cases
being governed so largely by prece-
dent, the principal requirement for a
successful suit is the preponderance
of the testimony. and the supplying of
such preponderance has become a fine
art. Because Of the fact that only a
small per centage Of the people are
made victims of perjured testimony,
the arousing of public sentiment on
the question is extremely difficult; but
anyhow, If any considerable portion OF
the public had a fair conception Of the
extent to which perjury Is ,practiced,
there would soon be very decided
change in existing conditions.
