I'efore leaving Col Irby
nade the following significant
tatenient:

11 short, the enemies of the Ueirtii

"Irliy lias nioreifriends in the

Mr Kvans thought that Mr Meaurin's

The State, l>t inst.
Tim failure of the grand jury of
i uiis county to irtuin a true iiiii
against S \\ Scruggs, guilty, by
\ his own admission, of official mis^
conduct, is a surprise and a shock.
. It is official misconduct hardly
j less in degree than Scr lggs's,
. The explanation given is that a
. majority of the jury wereoountry,
men who had Iteen ni political
. affiliation with Scruggs and that
T | they refused to allow him to l>o
5 tried. How much they may have
liecn influenced by the reported
| threat of Scruggs that if he were
brought to trial he would "preach"
r on "Reformers" higher in office
i we do not know.' We do know
! that the shame of this action does >
i not attach to the Columbia jurors,
