Our columns aro open to all. It is well known that tho wages of men employed in iron anil Bteol works all over the country aro low, and in somo places thoy aro being stilll fur ther reduced. In n few short months republican papers will urgo all labor inc mon to voto for a ronublioan Pre sident, for fear that "a domocratio ad ministration may cause low wages." If locro is anyiniug in tms, wiiy does not a republican administration mako bet ter wages t "If you elect Hancock you choose, pauper wages, idleness and the poor nousc, out it you elect Uarheld, you will got higher wages, steady work and prosperity." Such wero tho words ad dressed to tho workincmen and placar ded on the manufactories preceediug tho last Presidential election. Under the inspiration of theso deceptive as surances and tho protection fraud so often played upon their fears the labor ins men wore rallied to tho Republican standard, and what has been tho re sult 1 With a Republican in tho Pre sidential ofiicc and Republicans con trolling every department of govern ment and every act of congress, it is now in order for the working man to inquiro how about tho promises given wbero is the higher wages, the steady wurs mm prosperity i in wnai part oi tho country have the promises been verified ! Notwithstanding that a high protective tariff has been in existence all the time and is still in existence, everywhere laboring men have been working upon half time and wages falling regularly from Main to Oregon. Why is this t Working men will do well to do a little thinking for thora- Beives, and it may occur to them that their happiness is not entirely depen dent upon tho success of a party whose legislation is so entirely in tho inter est of monopoly, that they are incapa- uiu ui uiscriniinaimg in ravor ot lauor, or keeping good faith in their pro mises Centre Democrat. South Carolina's Oarpet-Baggers. NOT ONE OF THE 0I.D OANO LEFT IK TUB stati: outside of the FED ERAL OFFICES. A Washington dispatch to tho New York Sun says : Tho South Carolina Democrats will make no effort to cap ture tho seat made vacant by tho death of Mr. Maokcy. Tho district will probably ba represented by a negro, and the chances cf ex-Congressman Smalls aro said to bo good. While Mackoy was not a carpet-bagger, ho was one of their crowd. Mr. C. R. Thompson, who was prominent in South Carolina politics in tho days fol lowing tho war, in speaking of tho carpet-baggers, says that they aro scat tered from Dan to Beerslieba, and that, outside of tho Federal offices, there is not one left. Patterson has given tho State a wide berth sinco 1870 ; Tom Robertson, tho other Senator, is a paralytic in Colum bia i Bowen, who held Charleston and all her interests in his grip, is dead; Elliot, the smartest negro developed by reconstruction Congressman, Speaker of the House, and Attorney-General elect is making a precarious living in New Orleans s Wright, tho negro Jus tice of the Supremo Court, is loafing in Beaufort ; Dunn tho Comptroller-General, is peddling a patent glue in Bos ton ; Hardy Solomons, tho financier and keeper of tiio State deposits, has a little bako shop in Kansas ; Gurney, County Treasurer of Charleston, is long sinco dead ; Parker, tho manipulator of millions of conversion bonds, keeps a music store in Indiana, and ekes out a living by lecturing on temperance ; Gov. Scott, sinco his trial for murder, is broken in health and spirits, but is pretty solid financially from tho riso of Ohio wood lands ; Hogo lives iu Ohio, and remembers the fat pickings of tho Comptroller-General's ollico with pleas ure : cx-Judgo G.

PAEENT AND UHILD. puff of tho most frequent causes of iiugauou in tlio settlement ot tlio is. talc of decedents is tho claim of an heir or heirs for caro and maintenance of tho parent. A father or mother bo comes idd and discrcplt, and unable to care for himself or herself, and goes to .,.,.! it. .1 ... !.t. r.1111 ain-iiu uiu manning yi'jWH Willi a cimu. Everything is dono to mako tho life of tho nged ono ns comfortablo ns possi ble; kind bands nro ever ready to as sist, in sickness or health, nnd after n few years tho parent dies and is buried An administrator is appointed and tho estato put in process of settlement But no sooner aro tho assets marshaled than thero is a general scramblo for tho funds. All tho heirs who have over kept tlio parents a month or moro or less, present a bill for board and main lonance. Testimony is taken, .bitter feelings that last a lifctimo aro engen dercd between brothers and Bisters, heavy costs aro made, and sometimes the claimant is successful and some times not In order to prevent any difficulty of tins Kind a knowledge of Hie law ap plicablo to such cases is necessary, When a parent goes to livo with a child thero is no implied contract, and uio Biraplo Inct that a child lias sup ported a parent is not sufiiclcnt to cnablo him to recover. Hcnco it is that when no contract for keeping can bo shown tho claim is not allowed. In order to support nn express contract uiu uvuieiicu must uo positive, turum, aud unambiguous, showing an agree ment on the part of the parent to pay tor ooard, care, tiso. 1 lie only safe and proper way in such cases is for tho child to have a written agreement with tho parent. signed in tho presenco of witnesses fixing tho amount to bo paid, how to bo paid, and all about it. This would savo much expensive litigation and many family misunderstandings. The name of Judge Trunkey of our flt..'ttn Mnrirntim nnnrt.

Ho announces that he is op posed to any reciprocity treaty by which coal and iron oro are to be ad mitted free of duty. He undertakes to speak for tho coal miners who, ho says, would suffer by Buch a treaty. Mr. Sherman could not have been adv'nicd of tho fact that tho bituminous coal operators of northwestern Penn sylvania and Ohio have organized a "Ooal aud Iron Ore iteciprocity Asso elation,'' of which that excellent rcpub ncan, mo non. uaiusna a. urow, is president. The bituminous coal men want a free market in Canada for their product, because Canada wants their coal. The iron oro men of Canada want a free market for1 their product in the United States because the iron men of the United States want their ores. Tho presidential prospects of Mr. Sherman will hardlv bo brightened by his stupid opposition to tho wishes of tilts coal producers or his own state.

J.'atriot. The High Waters. Great damage has been done bv tho floods in some portions of tho country. At Cincinnati on Tuesday tho water reached tho unprecedented height of 08 feet lj inches, and rising inches per hour. An associated press correspondent went out on a govern ment boat and writes' from Charles ton, W. Va. that he learned from those he met that no such sufferiughas ever bo- foro been caused by the high water on tho Kanawha river. At Buffalo half tho town is submerged but tho people as a general thing are well supplied. At Leon Placo two hundred people aro under water and aro suffering for food and clothing. At Point Pleasant thero is not a foot of ground which is not at least six feet under water. Store houses and goods, dwolliugs, in fact all kinds of houses, are hid .from tho seconU story downward by tho water. Fully ouo hundred houses have been upset and washed away and tho people aro liyiiig on the decks of barges, in the court houso aud wherever thoy can get shelter. Many have gone to the hills for safety. Tho whole of tho lower part of tlio Kanawa river valley is over flown. In many casns tho river is from three to five miles wido. Tho neonlo will have to be fed for fully eight days yet. They aro in a doplorablo condi tion. Many of tho farmers havo lost all their corn, wheat, hav and oats and somo stock along the Kanawha river nnd holp is needed forthwith. At Pittsburg tho waters were rising again at tho rato of two niches an hour. Tim peoploliving inthobottom lands are filled with apprehensions of anolh er fiood. Many have not yet recovered from tho late doluge, and' tho discour aging outlook tends to increaso tho un comfortablefoeliiig. With nineteen feet of water now tho submerging of tho lower districts of tho two cities is quito probable. Tho situation among tho sufferers in Allegheny is worse, if pos sible, than on any day b'hiuo the flood abated, and tiunierous additional cases of destitution havo been reported, Many of tho victims, in addition to having been systematically plundered by tho waters, wero thrown out of em ployment by tho workshops being devas tated, and under any circumstances this fact alone would bo productive of moro or less want among tho poorer class. At least 3,500 persons were supplied with food last Monday, an in, crease over any previous day, Many towns along tho Ohio sufferod greatly nnd appeals for oid havo been sent out. Along tho two branches of tho Sus, quohaima but little damage was done. Tho ice is all out, and tho water has fallen, but a heavy rain might yot proi duco a high flood. Latkil Tho situation on Thursday morning was still moro startling. At Cincinnati, tho Ohio river is 70 feet nnd 1 inches, and still rising. Thirty thousand persons along tho river for a distanco of 25 miles will havo to be fed on charity for 2 weeks. At Ports mouth. O, with a population of 1-1,000, only 52 houses aro out of water. Help is needed from all over tho country. THE COLUMBIAN AND DEMOCRAT, BT.OOMSBURG, COLUMBIA COUNTY, PA. An Interesting Oase.
