The Lexington Dispatch Burned April 25th; rebuilt July 19, 1894. G. M. HARMAX. Editor and Publisher. LEXINGTON. S. C., WEI NESDAY. JUNE 28, 1809. Yebttrday's Columbia Evening Record says: "The connecting lick of the Seaboard Air Line is to be built in a rush, as it must be ready for next season's businese. The contract for the line from Cheraw to Columbia or Swansea, as the case may be, has already been let to Conlin & Co., who are under a bond of $50,000 to complete it by December 15,1899." The city council of Columbia has granted the Seaboard Air Line Railroad the right of way through the streets of the city, but has refused to cede Sidney Park for terminal purposes. The next proceedings talked of by the railroad people is to institute condemnation proceed> ings against the city of Columbia for Sidney Park. As this is already public property, used solely for the comfort, happiness and pleasure of the public, we do not believe that it is subject to condemnation proceedings. If it is, then the beautiful State house and.ground8, the court hcuse^ post office or any other public property could be condemned for corporate use. Even the depots of rival companies could be condemned and seriously crippled by richer and more powerful corporations. It would be a regular killing game. x ?? ?? The Kentucky State Democratic Nominating Convention, which i< now in session at Louisville, is dead locked. There are three candidates for Governor neither of whom can be nominated without one of the other two withdrawing. This not one of the three is willing to do, preferring rather to go down in defeat than either of the others should receive the nomination, and hence there is no probabiiititv that the deadlock. will be broken soon. If the Kentucky Democrats would adopt the primary plan of making nominations they would find it more satisfactory and there would be no such thing as deadlocks. The nominal ions would be taken from the controla few raoes back politicians, who generally pull the wires for their own preferv inent, and placed in the hands of the people, wheie. they rightly belong, and where every one can have an open field and a fair race. Goebel has since been nominated / by a vote of 560 to 531. Ther? is an ominous^4ull in -State politics just now. Not a TOViifanor is nfloflt. trv the infentinno ' "'T" ? ?~ of-the leaders in regard to the plan of campaign for next year. It seems that the old factional lines are fast being wiped out and much of the bitterness that marked politics in recent years is being relegated to the rear and "peace and unity" has at last been realized. A Conservative Private Secretary to a Reform Governor, a Conservative Lieutenant Governor and a Conservative State Superintendent of Education are some of the fruit3 of this changed condition of public sentiment, but whether this state of affairs will continue, or whether factional lines will again be tightly drawn remains to be eeen. We know not whether the present calm is but the forerunner of the coming storm or that the clouds have roiled by and permanent peace and prosperity are returning. Let us take it as the harbinger of better times. A negro editor in Tampa, Fia.,ard Officer Woodward, whom he had severely criticized for arresting a negio woman who had refused to be vaccinated, met in a negro restaurant ly agreement to fight it out. At the appearance of the officer the negio pulled his pepper box, took aim at r it,;) iu? i I LUC J , pUllCU lliC HiggCI BIIU fired, but in some way the ball en tered the negro's abdomen aDd lodged in his spinal column, from the effects of which he shortly afterwards died. The affair came near precipitating a race riot similar to that witnessed in Wilmington, N C, last year, but fortunately, for the lack of a leader, the negroes weakened and quietly dispersed. The Board of Visitors of the S. CCollege have made public their report. The report was very enthusiastic in its praise of the management of this time honored institution in every department. The Board strongly recommended that hereafter this should be the place for holding the Summer school for teachers. We agree with this recommendatiou aDd heartily en- I dorse the reasons given why the the school should be held iu Culum- ! bia. " j The gunboat Corcord has sailed j from Hong Kong for Lingayen, on j the north west coast of Luzon, for i patrol duty. If supplies are being i furnished the Filipinos they pro'oa- j bly are landed in this bay, from I woicb easy access could be had to j toe interior of the island. 1 II* l?HIHIM I ! Illl <?HI Mil Mil Ifl Hi' Mr. J. T. Huriis has le*s<d the I i Harris Litbia Sptiugs to Mersrs. Etheredge A Latimer, of Augusta, Gt. He will travel fur this firm. It is said that consideration of the five years' lease of the bot? 1 and the same for the Springs is $33 000. A few years ago this pitce of property was considered a worthless bog, inhabited only by snakes and other loathsome reptiles. Now under the improvement of art it is a magnificent piece of property and the limpid waters of its springs are famous far and wide for their medicinal and health giviDg properties. The Graham tract of land, containing 101 acres, near Fisher's mill nond in Columbia, has been pur i. ? - chased by the Olympia people as a site for their mammonth cotton mill, the erection of which will shortly be commenced. Comdemcation proceedings will be immediately begun to have the old pond filled in so as to make the newly acquired property healthful for the little village that is to be built. Thus another old landmark which divides the old Colurr bia from the new must give way to the march of modern progress. General Leonard Wood, who is in command of the department of Santiago de Cuba, but who is now in Washington, says he has received information that the yellow fever, which recently broke out in Santiago, originated in a low dive known as tte "army and navy bar," frequented by men and women from South America nnd the islands of the Cirribean sea. If disease breeding holes still remain in Cuba, they should be immediately closed and the premises thoroughly fumigated and disinfected. The Georgia Travelers' Protective Association, some 800 strong, stormed and captured Charleston heart, soul and body last Saturday, and after I sacking the city, the conquoring host invaded the Isle of Palms and took a dip in the biiny waters of old ocean. The travelers returned to their Geogia homes enthusiastic over their reception and well pleased with the generous hospitality of their South Carolina friends. The President will today issue a proclamation calling for 35,000 volunteers to go to the Philippines. Negroes will be given the preference. Gen. Joe Wheeler will be ordered to the Philippines.

Warrants Issued for James Attaway and Edward McCioud. Charged With Criminal Assault? Drove Husbands of Women lYom House and Ravished Their Wives ?One Woman Was Dangerously Wounded. Special to The State. Batesburg, June 2G.?James Attaway, white, was arrested here this afternoon by Sheriff Caughman of Lexington on the charge of rape The Sheriff is looking for Ed. McCloud on the same charge. The affidavit in the warrant is made by L. H. Leitch and David Meetz^, charging the assault on the persons of the ir wives, Mary Ann Leitch and Laura Ellen Meetze. It seems that the women have not borne the best of reputations and that the defendants have been in the habit of visiting them as loverr. Recently the women were married to the above named men and it is pre surncd that the husbands objected to the continuance of their past lives. Oil May 16 the parties visited the house wheie the parties were living, but the husbands objected to their presence. Attaway and MeClcu3 are said to be pretty bad men, and it is said that at the point of the pistol they made the husbands leave the house. In some way Attaway's pistol was discharged and the ball took effect in the groin of one the women. Dr. Crosson of Leesville, probed for the ball but was uDable to find it, as it bad lodged in the pelvic canity. The woman is not yet, out of danger. She claims that Attaway deliberately shot her, but he claims that the shoctiDg was acci dental. The prisoner had a pistol and a pair of knucks on his person when arrested today, so he will have to answer to the charge of carrjing concealed weapons. The scene of the alleged crime is in the northern part of Lexington county, near the Saluda liver. F. C. "W. - Dots from tha Old Hill.

I Coroner's Jury Find* Verdict?John- | son Had Escaped from Chuingang. : The following account of the killing of W. H JoLdsod at B^tesburg j on Tuesday evening, June 20, by Clyde Whittle, Deputy Sheriff of Saluda county and Will Berry, Marshal of the tow nof Saluda, is taken I from the Columbia State: ' Batesburg, June 21 ?The Core- \ ner's inquest over the remains of W. H. Johnson, who was killed there yesterday afternooD, was held here this morning. It seems that some time ago Johnson became involved in some difficulty in Georgia and was sentenced to the chaiDgang. While serving out his sentence, he managed in some way to escape and return to his home at this place. Since that time he has been working at a tur pentine distillery at ttiis place. A warrant for his arrest was placed iu hands of the Sheriff of Saluda county. Yesterday afternoon the Deputy Sheriff of Saluda, Cljde Whittle, accompanied by the Town Marshal of Saluda, Will Barry, attempted to make the arrest. The sffiir occurred at the distillery on the outskirts of towD, and there was only one eye witness to it. At the inquest this morning all the testimony went to prove that Johnson resisted arrest and was shot by the above mentioned officers. The verdict of the jdry was, uTbat WT. II. Johnson, while restating arrest, came to his death at the hands cf Clyde Whittle and Will Berry.'1 The affair is very much regretted by the entire town. This is the first time in the history of the town .that a white man has been killed in the incorporate limits. Messrs. "Whittle and Berry came down last Friday and surrendered to Sheriff Caughmau. On their persons were cuts and bruises indicating that they had a rough experience in trying to arrest Johnson. Saturday Mr. Cole L. Blease, who has been retained by the defence, came over and had a consultation / with his clients in reference to bail. As a result, Mr. Blease appeared before Judge Buchanan an applied for bail which the Judge granted in the sum of 82,COO each. They gave bond . yesterday and were released from jail. How's This!

Clements, of the firm of ClemeDts & Daniel, cotton ginners of Lonoke, Ark , was iD the city yesterday. Mr. Clements was seen by a Commercial Appeal representative in the office of the American Cdton Cjmpany, in the Continental building, and he talked very enthusias tically of that company's Roundlap bale press, which he has been operating at his gin the past season. He compressed about 4.0C0 bales on his R ucdlap bale press, and the cotton was sold at the press at Memphis prices. Mr. Clements says that a Roundlap bale from the American Company's press will net from 152 50 to S3 00 more than fiom the old press. In fact, a farmer a few months ago, made a test of the matter, bringing the exact number of nnnnd* nf the same nualitv to Mr. Clements that be did to a square bale press, without letting either gin know he was making the test, and the lloundlap bale netted just ?3 73 move than the square bide. Mr. Clements says that one season j has satisfied him of the merits of j the American Company's It)uudlap j bile press. It is a good thing he j says, both for the ginner and the farmer, and his firm will continue its use and abandon its other press entirely. * * Prevention better than cure.
