fore it can rank with the best quality, it! ( must be at least six months old. They 11 now have growing, enough tobacco to keep ! i their factory runniug a good portion of the t coming season, and when the home-raised 1 stock is exhausted, it is their purpose to re- t plenish their supply from neighboring mar- y kets. We wish Messrs. Dover & McSwain 1 Bros, success in their enterprise. It bids 1 fair to stimulate the neighborhood in the 1 production of a new crop, which will at t least prove as profitable as cotton. Will be Closed Today. 1 ?

On last Sunday night, a gang of Negroes visited the cabin of Onnie Legg, colored, who lives on the plantation of Mr. S. W. Garrison, near Philadelphia, and calling hiui out, gave him a severe heating about the head with a "slungshot.'' John Lowry, Jim Ross, Sam Rivers, John Foster, Harvey Brooks, John Henry Burris, Dock Latimer, Will Perry and John Meek, were before Trial Justice Carroll yesterday to answer for the crime. The gang charges that on the night previous, Legg, accompanied by a number of his friends, called upon and regulated one of their number, and they claim that their visit was merely in retaliation. Trial Justice Carroll was able to make but little out of the case, and decided to send it up to the circuit court to be straightened out. All parties who can be identified as connected with cither gang, will be bound over for a hearing. The C. & L. Moved the Cadetii. ? The Chester and Lenoir people are very much elated on account of their success in getting the best of the Three C's one day last week. To move 150 cadets, with their baggage, is quite an item. Both roads, of course, wanted the job. ' The Three C's people wanted to take the cadets by way of Rock Hill aud had arranged with the W. C. & A., to send cars to that point. General Passenger Agent Beard thought it would be a good idea to take the cadets by way of Chester, and lost no time in getting the consent of Colonel Coward and Quartermaster White. Neither had been approached, and of course had no preference. As the result, Mr. Beard telegraphed that if the W. C. & A. people wanted to be prepared for the crowd, they had better leave their cars at Chester instead of Rock Hill. They did so, and the cadets, with their baggage, went by way of the Narrow Gauge. Up to date Mr. Beard is somewhat ahead ; but the interesting fight continues. COURT OF GENERAL SESSIONS. The summer term of the court of general sessions for York county, convened in Yorkville last Monday, his houor Judge T. B. Fraser presiding. All of the grand jurors were present except John Gelzer, of Rock Hill; and the petit jurors answered to their names as follows: Joseph H. Adams, J. A. Barry, Felix Quinu, A. G. Crawford, W. F. Comer, W. H. Giles, W. F. Dye, J. R. Mitchell, S. V. Aycock, J. L. Feemster, J. L. Davis, T. G. Dowdle, S. W. Inman, A. J. Parrott, R. L. Brown, J. C. Hughes, D. P. Curry, W. M. Whitesides, W. C. Gist, J. M. Campbell, S. A. Mitchell, J. J. Smith, W. D. Parks, Jno. B. Craig, R. M. Wallace, W. B. Good, W. B. Cameron, J. H. Kidd, Jr., C. C. Blalock, J. E. Harper, W. P. Hobbs, J. B. Carroll, B. D. Springs, D. G. Crawford. W. E. Sledge was not present at the opening of court. Messrs. D. P. Curry, J. E. Harper and B. D. Springs were, for various reasons, excused from further attendance. After the organization of the court, his t honor proceeded to deliver his charge to the ] grand jury. His remarks on the subject of the illegal traffic in intoxicating liquors, and s also on the subject of mob law, will be read with especial interest. On the liquor ques- ( tiou he said : i It seems to be conceded by all thoughtful i men who observe with care the influence at ] work in modern society, that amongst the greatest evils which threaten the social and moral condition of the American people and endanger their vitality and vigor as a race, J is the improper use of alcoholic liquors. So f great is the interest iu the subject that efforts ? have been made here and elsewhere, to con- 1 trol, and even prohibit, the sale by law. ' So far as this matter has entered, or may enlcr, politics, and so far as any attempt to y influence any future legislation is concerned, J it is not proper that I should say anything t to you. It is very important, however, tlmt 11 the lasv on this subject, whatever that law i e may be, should he enforced. To do this the j ^ main reliance has been on the grand juries of! ti the country. In our system, living under a : \ written constitution, in which the supreme i and paramount will of the people is ex- 1 pressed, the courts have a right to pass upon 11 the constitutionality of an act of the State legislature, and even on an act of the con- s gress of the United States. t What my opinion or yours may be on this j ( subject, so far as our duty here is concerned, is nothiug to the purpose. We are governed 1 by the ruling of the supreme court. Any j t criticism on my part, either of the acts of s 1892 or 1893, or of the ruling of the supreme [ court, would be manifestly out of place. I: must take the law as laid down by the su- ' preme court, ine act or isya is suostantiai- t ly the same as the act of 1892, at least so yc far as the right to sell liquor is concerned. ? This act of 1892 has been held by our j supreme court to be unconstitutional and 1 void, except upon one single point. The J single provision held to be constitutional is t that which provides that no license for the sale of spirituous liquors shall be granted t after June, 1893. j The effect of a decision declaring an act < unconstitutional, differs from a repeal. The ( latter does not restore the old law. The ! latter leaves the old law just as it was. .\s ( the law then stood, it was unlawful to sell, without a license, any alcoholic liquors?including both distilled and fermented liquors,: i. e., whiskey, brandy, wine, beer, etc. 1 I believe domestic wines were excepted. It will be improper, in a charge to a grand ] jury, to give, my opinion whether the word ! "spirituous liquors" includes wine, beer, < and other fermented liquors or not. But no man has a light to sell any of these, distilled i i or fermented, without a license. It is not ray purpose to iudicate whether, in my opinion, there can be licenses for the j sale of fermented liquors. It is a matter of i sound discretion for the grand jury, and if you see fit to institute an inquiry and make . 1 presentment of persons selling alcoholic liquors without a license, just as under the;] old law, it is your right and duty to do so. 1 The court will give its aid in procuring the! attendance of witnesses. It will be much better for persons who take an interest in ! i these matters, to furnish the evidence of violations of the law, than to make unavailing! I tl.ot ?l,r. la... I.- I... ,llo i l'UUi|'iaiui>*) iiinv uic iau in miuu ru iv; uu *ii.-?- i i regarded. The law cannot execute itself. There is another matter to which I wish i to call your attention, continued Judge Fraser, and I do so as a matter ofj duty and with profound sorrow. 1 refer to the frequent instances in which hands of unauthorized persons assume, without any warrant of law, to execute the criminal law, indicting in many cases punishment which is far in excess of that provided by law, even ' should the victims be guilty as charged. This great evil is not confined to South Carolina, or even to the South. I fear that it has grown, in a great measure, mainly < out of a distrust of the ability or willingness i of the court adequately to punish crime.1 The due protection of the lives and liberties1, .. 4 1.., ! Ol (lie 111(11 YIUUUI VUI/.CU, I Cljllll 111211/ I 111- t criminal law shall be technical?indeed, very ; technical?and great ottences do sometimes| ;scape 011 technicalities: but it is better thus, ( ban that a man shall be tried and punished I 11 a manner provided by a law passed after i be offense is committed. The British pariauient, in former days, could send a man to < he block by a "bill of attainder,"' for tilings i vhich controvened 110 law 011 the statute I looks. Our constitution prohibits our legis- j 1 ature from making such laws, or ex post j 1 acto laws. Should a mere mob be allowed ; .0 make laws and execute tlieni ? 1 Juries sometimes err on the side of mercy: i1 )ut it is better thus than that an innocent ! nan should be punished, especially when 1 -hat punishment is death. A11 experience ? )f some years has convinced me that the 1 jlamor against juries is unjust, and to a very large extent without soiiu iouiumuun j n fact. Complaints are made and spread \ ibroad about acquittals by juries, by persons ] ,vho know little, and care less, about the acts of the case, as proved on the trial. 1 The juries of this State are intelligent and 1 lonest, and perform their dutiesas well and 1 onscientiously as any other class of persons n oflice in this State or elsewhere. The t act is, that within the last three or four It ears, there have been convicted of murder j I md sentenced to the death penalty, at least | welve white persons, and perhaps others; vhose cases I do not now recall, besides a j lumber of colored persons. The courts can, do, and will continue to idminister the law. This mob law is ruin-1( ng the reputation of our State at home and ibroad, and is fearfully demoralizing to our i vhole people. Not only is the poor and j r nimble man liable to be the victim, but in jg imes of high excitement, no man is safe, lowever high may be his social or official position. I invoke your influence, and as ar as practicable, your official action, to aid n averting this great evil. After his honor concluded his charge, a lumber of cases were called for trial; but is none of them were ready, the court was idjourned until 3 o'clock. The first case taken up was that of the State agaiust Ed Williams, colored, charged kVith highway robbery and larceny. Wiliams plead guilty. Charles Davis, colored, was tried on the charge of highway robbery. The prosecu;or was F. S. Groves. The alleged crime is >aid to have beeu committed near the North Carolina line, sometime last February, j Davis was tried at the last term of the court; lut the jury failed to agree. The case consumed nearly the whole of Monday afterloon and resulted in another mistrial. Hyder Wylie, of Fort Mill, charged with esponsibility for the big fire that occurred at hat place recently, was released on his own ecognizance, to appear for trial whenever ;he grand jury shall present a true bill. Hyler is colored. u Joseph Chisholm, colored, was tried on the a iharge of placing obstructions on the C., C. 1 fc A. railroad. The railroad company had 10 witnesses present, even to prove that the ^ illegcd crime had ever been committed, and ;he jury returned n verdict 01 not guiiiv. s The next case taken up was that of the c State against James Rector, charged with 1 ibducting and marrying a girl under 16 ^ rears of age without the consent of her pa- s ents. On Sunday of last week, Hector I uarried Venie, the 15 year old daughter of|ii Ferry O. Walker. The ceremony was per- ? "ormed at Clover by Rev. W. J. Langston. J Mr. Walker objected to the marriage on acjount of the youth of his daughter and pros;cuted Rector on the charge mentioned f ibove. Solicitor Hough and Thomas F. c McDow, Esq., appeared for the prosecution, j ( ind Finley & Brice for the defense. The j ^ rharge of abduction was not proved, and i he jury returned a verdict of not guilty.} Sector went on his way rejoicing. I Calhoun C. Grill", colored, was convicted of issault and battery with intent to kill. c As Thk Enquirer goes to press, the :ourt is engaged in the trial of Henry v White, William Leeks, et al., the gang of j S'egroes charged with organized thievery in c Vfrt Mill township. * n ItKPOHT OF THK GRAND JURY. 'j The grand jury completed its work on a resterday afternoon, and on submitting its inal report was discharged by his honor at ^ ibout 5 o'clock. Space forbids the publiea- c ion of the report in full. In reference to f lis honor's charge it reads as follows : v Wr, 1.liulfliiml witli ixnni<i<i1 satkl!ii>tinn to runr honor's clear and forcible remarks on the j . uhject of the Browing tendency toward mob I aw, and also on the subject of the illegal sale of! a iquor. In our opinion, the remote cause of the ( endency toward mob law lies in an unhealthy | i mblie sentiment. This unhealthy public senti- j , nent sometimes finds expression in the improp- ' r administration of the law through the courts, j iVith improper regard for the courts, there is no | ? eliable check to lawlessness. The only remely, in our opinion, is a healthy public sentiment ' o sustain the courts in the fearless and righteous , liseharge of their duties. With the courts abso- j utely sure in the swift punishment of crime, j j here will not only be no occasion for a resort to j nob law; but lawless persons will be afraid to ' aigage in it. j ( It is a matter of common report that there j ire numerous violations of the laws against the ale of liquor. As to this we only have to say c hat wo will gladly present any offender when-'t tver we shall be furnished with sufficient evi-j lence to warrant a bill. I Pursuant to the warning published in its J ast report, the graud jury proceeded to blis- \ t er the county commissioners and road over-1 \ leers for neglect of duty in regard to the | mblic roads as follows; 1 "In our last report, we called especial attention ' o the general neglect of duty by road overseers, t iVe find that the overseers have paid but little at-1 > ention to what we had to say on the subject. We , ( vould be glad to have the county commission- . ;rs especially required to look after the nogli- i1 jent overseers, and see to it that they perform heir duties as required by the laws on the sub- j t cct. We do not consider that the county com- j ( nissioners themselves have done their full duty nthe matter, and if there is any authority by j * vhich they can be called to account, wc would t jeglad to sec it invoked." j The remainder of the report was devoted ] o matters concerning the poor house and < ail, and is of no general interest. His lion-1 >r said he was powerless to do anything exjept to have the county commissioners serv-!1 id with copies of the report, lie hoped, lowcvcr, that they would act upon the rce- < mimendations it contained. < ABOUT I'HOi'IiK. ; Mrs. K.
