We believe the negroes of ti country, if let alone by these tri< sters, would.work out their own d tiny in a quiet way and in a way tU would be beneficial to them and the white people as well.

We are told that by- they use it as the day to haul the he supplies from Columbia up to the farm on Broad river in Lexington th County, and after taking the boat up o- for this purpose they load it with ng wood and haul wood back to Colum bia, and in other ways require work vn of the convicts on th- Sabbath. We ith also are informed that the people of 1is the Fork in Lexingion County are. ,a- very mnch opposed to this thing, as na it is inclined to demoralize the young es. people of their section. The State on pays a chaplain to preach to the con on victs on the Sabbath, and at the same na time they are required to violate one 01 of the commandments, and not only that, but the Statute law of the State by doing manual labor on this day. .ry They are sent- there for violation of of law, and yet they are made to violate is. the law every Sunday. We think it in- wrong as a matter of policy and of of law, and in addition it is wrong mo be rally. -The Creator in his wisdom tle designed that man should have one m- day in seven as a day of rest, m- and we do not think that the e- prisoners of a great State should be made to violate this law. Then it is a violation of the Statute law of ow South Carolina to work on Sunday, re- except as an act of charity or abso th- lute necessity. We do not think it e. can be i constant necessity with the of Penitentiary authorities to work on a the Sabbath. ve We hope this matter will be looked at into, and if our information is cor er- rect, that a stop will be put to this ll violation of the Sabbath. ne These observations might find ap of, plication nearer home. Lte On last Sunday the Newberry Cot ton Mills had a force of hands at work on Scott's Creek digging a well all day long, and some of their men mhave been working more or less all m-day Sunday for some time past. , It is possible this work on Sunday he here is a case of necessity. It may 1s be that the ox is in the ditch and or, should be taken out and the only el- tinie to do it is Sunday. We do not ar pretend to give the explanation, we ' only state the fact. We have only this to say, that if men in authority, and men who wield vand mould public opinion, encourage, vesanction and require this violation of e the Sabbath by those who labor for nd them, we had as well repeal our laws against it, and stop preaching from our pulpits the observance of it, of TREE IIILLION WOMIEN. 'he It is said that on the occasion of cthe recent semi-centennial jubilee of ud Queen Victoria of England, three emillion women of her realms made he her up a present of 75,000 pounds is sterling, equat to about $375,000. an This no doubt is meant as a token of ies respect and the high esteem in which e- these three million women hold the he Queen-and they no doubt meant .well. But when we think of the great tes number of other places and uses to ra- which this handsome sum could have be hen p)ut by those women and the s great mass of suffering humanity k right there in England, upon whom gcould have been expended three times Sthis amon,w cnnot but wonder of why these three million women could be have been so foolish. The Queen is to already rich and did not need the nmoney, and there are thousands of npoor suffering humanity every where c that is really in want and just to >re think the great am ouut of good these ial women could have done with this ee money. The Atlanta C'onstitutior, in speak are ing of this gift says: "But it might art be said that there are better places for ar- this money than the royal purse. he Thousands of children lay in the us garrets and hovels of London, sick, nd ragged and starving, as the splendid he pageantry of this jubilee procession gswept on to the grand abbey. Thou to sands of the Queeen's subjects in sIreland are homeless and hungry. Lor There are dismal scenes of misery, want and suffering all about the is millionaire Queen." k. There is no doubt of the truth of Sthis picture, but the Queen is not to at be blamed because she was the re to cipient of this gift. The only won-. der to us is that there are three mil y lion such foolish women. It is al gways thus though.

A Special to Atlanta Constitution. WESTMINISTER, S. C., June 24. The incendiary fire which was report- I re ed from Walhalla, S. C., in the dis- T< patches seems to have been the ar crowning act in a series of diabolical th outrages which have been perpetrated in against the good people of that quiet T; village for the past several years. th The people of Walhalla and of West- sa Union also, which is really a part ty of the first named town, though under we a separate incorporation, have been dc annoyed from time to time by the post- th ing upon the premises of the lead- at ing citizens of anonymous notices, CI containing scurrillous and obscene pc language reflecting upon the good es name of the inmates of different re households. These occasional notices w had been treated with indifference or wl contempt until last Friday the 17th, Cc when their authors became so bold in of their devilish designs of defaming the character of virtuous people that 31 matters reached a crisis. 3 During the night previous, a num- ca ber of anonymous notices, in the fri ame handwriting as all former ones, st: were posted in several public pIeces at in Walhalla and West Union. These Jc notices contained the names of the St wives and daughthers of many of the th purest and best families of the two re towns, and were so full of obscenity cc and vulgarity as to cause the vilest TI blackguard to blush with shame. M Such insults had now become too m, numerous and too public to be borne, n and the pe.ple. aroused with indigna- oe tion, resolved to stop them. Suspi cion had already marked out the j guilty ones, and the discovery of a pocket book near where one of the notices was posted, led to the issuing Ti of warrants for L. K. Hunter, Walter Hodges and- Saddler, all of West Union. A number of others were suspected, some of them of highly respectable family connection. A little village was perhaps never so in thoroughly aroused with indignation as was Walhalla and West Union. s - r The pent up wrath of a long suffering o people had burst forth in the wildest pE fury. Th-us stood matters on Mon day night, when the people retired to rest, little dreaming that to the un hallowed defamation of their charac- gr ters would be added an effort to burn G up their property. Such was the se case, however, as was reported in the A Constitution. The loss by the fire is now known to be more serious than is was first believed. In addition to tr the entire outfit of the Keowee Courier ta office, the law libraries of Thompson ta & Jaynes and Keith & Verner were a cc complete loss. Among these were many valuable law books difficult to tb be replaced at any cost. John S. bi Verner, of the firm of Keith & Verner, le was clerk of the board of county T commissioners and with his office were destroyed nearly all the county g records. Many important papers w pertaining to unsettled estates, which te are usually kept in the county clerk's safe, were in the different law offices undergoing preparations for court, bi which convenes at Walhalla next di week. The destruction of these will cause much trouble. The cQurthouse square with its pleasant grove and comforta- fc ble offices, now presents a forbidding g, appearance with its charred ruins it and blackened shade trees. Only bi two buildingrs remain, the courthouse O and law office of Judge Norton & la Stribling. a Hunter, Saddler and Hocdges are bi in jail on the charge of postinig the ai notices, but no direct evidence to con- p vict them with the burning has yet m been developed. The prisoners or s their friends telegraphed yesterday to Colonel Geo. Johnstone, a lawyer of Newberry, to come to their assistance. to Colonel Johnstone arrived in the fc evening and called on the prisoners fe at the jail, and informed them that if ni after investigating the case be found i reasonable evidence of their guilt, be ls should leave them to their fate. sI ANOTHER ARREsT-A PARSON's SON a IN THlE TOILS.h Special to News and Courier. WVALHIALLA, June S2---Alonzo r Morgan, a laborer in the WValhalla is depot and a son of the Rev. Frank Morgan, was arrested and lodged in jail Saturday night charged with complicity in the libel case. This T makes four parties now in jail charged with this outrageous offense. The preliminary hearing will be held the fr 5th day of July next.t Danger! hi 112 Greenville News. We hav-e received information from several directi,ons that the white people mn in parts of Greenville and Spartanburg , counties are making preparations, min quietnesss indicating a deadly purpose, tt for a general raid against the co-opera- ti tive workers established in this section s by Hoover. 1 There is danger in this movement of the whites--far more danger than there t is in any possible organization of the nie- r groes. There is danger for the peace and good order we have established at so much cost, danger to the prosperity just coming to us, danger to all our interests and to the well earned reputation of this section for respect for the law. Before there is any rash work let the of white people remember that they have cc all the lawv and government in their ta hands and all the power. There is no ta excuse or possible justitication for vio- m, lence while the civil authoritics are re willing and able to enforce all the laws. th While the colored people keep inside af the law they hurt nobody and nothing, tl: and are as much entitled to the law's pt protection as any body. inl The white men owe it to their own m manhood to be as honest and merciful tc as they are brave. .C Let the coolest and wisest heads in ti Greenville and Spartanburg take the 0] guidance of the whole matter and see ra that nothing is done rashly or outside ti the law. We have just recovered from in the demoralization of radical rule and B the revolution of 1876; let us not go any 01 step backward, but continue our pro- b< gress toward perfect peace, prosperity, m and the reign of Christianity. As we understand the co-operative workers, any white man can become a - member on payment of his fifty-five "I cents.
