t'R hCI\NA INDEPENDENTS DENOUNCEDJ BY A CLRED REPUBLICAN. p~de a , tV alent'Harrion from Thomas E. Miller, Who Puts the McLane-Russel Gang Down as "No Good" and Mere Pot Hunters. W\isiD.TGoY, I. C.. March 2. 188. To the President of the Enited States, Washington, D. C. -SIR The ascendexcv .f a..Republican ratU -bughtlorwird'men whom the Republican party in' South Carolina had almost forgotten. They are nowv met evervwheregfnd are among the it pi te f~c -eekers, and at all times do assert that their recogni tion means a division of the white vote in the Soutb. These so-called Independents have less claim-in South Carolina for good aecomaplish'eJ thanin any otbor South ern State, and are withal, the most clam orous for place. The history of the lRepulican party since 1876 is not a pleasant one; it is wonderful that it pos sesses an organization to-day, for in stead of common-sense rules being ap plied.to.strengthte$ it, a series of exper -iments have been-made with the purpose and excellent-intention of dividing the Democratie. vote, but which have re sulted only in further discouraging Re - ptibliias. The influential and. intelligent leaders of the Republican party in the State haye been generous and liberal to a fault in their efforts to secure strength from the olpition, 'and have learned the folly of 'graspiicg at i shadow-the In deit eutpartY-a misnomer for a co terie of -office-seekers, - headed by J. Ilendr:cks McLane.. On the representation of - Messrs. Me Lane, Russell and others, that they had a.secret. white following who could se cure an honest count and with the Re publeanuoterc old make an. Independ ent.ovement successful, the Republi can organization indorsed the Independ ent candidates. for Congress and their .muijd.ecfQral ticket four years ago.

'Thefairy- tale telegraphed to the lead ing Republicans in the 'North purporting to give details of a Whig convention in Pickens County is. one of the strongest arguments against any recognition of tlhose.who have attempted to force upon the country a stupend<;as falsehood. If such an organization existed it would not have to clamor for recognition, nor would it have to hide its light under a bushel; a half-dozen or more men, headed by .J. Hendricks McLane, com posed the convention, every one of whom, it is reasonable to beim-ve, is an aspirant for office. Accessions from the respectable and influential- -portions ~of t1be - D~emoc racy will ever be welcome and command recognition. At the last- State Execu tive Committee meeting the Republican . organization, recognizing the force of character and success of General William Nahne - unanimously .recoimmended him for a Cabinet position. Men of Mahoe's character, ability ad honesty of purpose would be warmly wvecomed by South Carolina Republicans. but thbe p resent coterie, headed by J. Hendricks McLane, is so~ far from being of that type as to make a comparison odius. Having an organization whose highest and only.aimis the success of the prin iples you represent, and onc that is willing at any time to follow, sustain, or to lead any movement that gives prom ise for improving the condition of the people of the State, I therefore earnestly request you, in behalf of the Republi eans of the State, to sustain and encour ag our, m.ganizain beiing it to be for the. beat inte.est;of the country, the people of the State, and the Republican party.: Yoursrespectfully, THOS. E. MILLER, M. . Contesting Seventh District, S. C. AN UNLUCKY VALENTINE. Which Estranged Father and Daughter For Fifty Years. BELVIDERE, N. J.;;March' 26.:--James Martin, a well-to-do farmer living at Ballietville. Penn., died a few days ago. leaving a will by which he disinherited his only daughter, the result of a disa greemuent 50 years ago. It was a few days before St. Valen tine's Day in-1839 when his daughter, then 15.vears old, asked her father for a ne;ivdresh,4 ;which .he refused to-buy for her. The girl was quick tempered and took her father's refusal much to heart On St. Valentine's Day Farmer Martin took from the postoffice a valen tine addressed to him in his daughter's handwriting. It was a rough carica ture. representing a miser counting and gloating over his money. He at once took his daughierto task for what he considered an insult, but she denied sending it. -There lived in the neighbor hood another farmer who treated a niece living with him very brutally. Martin's daughter said that they had each purchased a valentine, and that she had bought one entitled "The Hon est Farmer" for him, while th'e niece had purchased the caricature to send to her uncle, and that in addressing them the envelopes became mixed. But, in spite of all explanations Farmer Martin would not believe his daughter, and from that day on he never spoke to her. She soon married and lived on a farm adjoining her father's, and although he was on the most fami liar terms with her husband and children, still he never noticed her. He died last week, leaving an estate valued at $45,000. By his will he lefthis aged widow $30,000, and to his son in-law the remainder, provided he survived his wife, the farmer's daughter If the son-in-law died first, then the money was to he di vided among his three children. To his daughter Farmer Martin bequeathed "a package to be found in his trunk, tied with a green ribbon and sealed with green wax." W' hen this was opened it was found to be the unfortunate valentine that had. caused the extraordinary estrangement of the farmer from his daughter fifty years ago. THE STRUGGLE FOR SPOILS. Postmasters not to be Discharged For Mere Partisanship. WASHINGToN, March 26.-Congress man Thomas of Wisconsin has been trying to get a Presidential postmaster removed on a charge of offensive parti sanship, and Postmaster General Wana maker told him that he and the Presi dent had been talking the matter over and agreed that an efficient- Postmaster was not to be removed merely for parti sanship. Senator Wilson of Iowa went to Mr. Wanamaker for the removal of another partisan postmaster. Although it was shown him that the offender was the editor of a Democratic newspaper and had abused the Republicans all through the campaign, Mr. Wana maker would not consent to his removal unless it were. shown that he managed his postofce iadlf. i : . But The politicians ty not wholly dis coraged. Senator Wilson and the rest of the Iowa delegation will go to the Postmaster General with another ease of an offensively partisan postmaster, and ask him to reconsider his last decisions and go back to the policy promisged by his appointment of Congressman Pay son's candidate at Pontiac, III. There is nothing in the pretended plan to ut ttoneyGeneral Miller on the Sre e Bc so that Noble can get into the Bureau of Justice and John S. Clarkson into the Interior. No- doubt the First Assistant-Postmaster General is quite willing to go up stairs, but Mr. Miller, wlio is an.,unobtrusive lawyer, as quiet as he is able, 'eds himsel f~ .,too. young to be shelvd nn'ei- the funereal looking black robe of 'the Supreme Bench. Then Miller can have Bradley's place, for he is about ready-to'retire Qfn a pension as he begins to feel the weight of years. - . G.en. W. Q. Gresham, it issaid, can. have the place if he wants iton the Sn-' preme Bench. The feeling. between Harrison and Gresam' has: pased.. Gresham has never saved money' and the increased salary will not -be objec tionable to him. He is fond of thepro fession and no other appointment could so strengthen Benjamin Harrison for the future as the placing of his past ri val on the Supreme Bench. It will be regarded in Indiana~ and elsewhere nearly as an ideal appointment. Judge Carpenter, formerly of Ken tucky, is one of the most remarkable men to be seen in Washington. He was born in Kentucky, held office under Buchanan and became a reconstructed Democrat under A braham Lincoln. He was for ten years a Federal Judge in South Carolina, but five years ago moved to Pasadena, California, to look after the interests of Jay. Gould on the Pacific slope. GARENVTTLLE GTEANINGS. Killed by a Fall from a Trestle- The Do funct Construction Company. .. GEFxvu.LE, March 27,-[iSpedial to IThe Register.]-The dead body of an old Icolored man named Marion Brown was found this morning under the Air Line trestle over the Reedy River, within the corporate limits, investigation devel opdthatthe old man had methis death while attempting to climb out on a pro jecting timber of the trestle to escape an incoming freight train. The Coro ner's jury rendered a verdict of death by falling from the trestle. At a conference between the receivers and creditors of the Georgia Construc tion Company here last night it was deided to have the receiv ers apply to the courts for an order to sell the contract for building the Caro 'lina, Knoxville and Western Railroad and other property of the concern. In case that fails to pan out, an associa tion of creditors is to be formed to take hold of and carry out the contract. A Complicated Family. Mack Carter, a son of Bill Carter, married Tuck Phillips's daughter, and Tuck Phillips married Bill Carter's. daughter, and Bill Carter married Tuck Phillips's daughter. Bill Carter is there fore Tuck Phillips's son-in-law and father-in-law, and Tuck Phillips is his father-in-law's son's father- in-law, while Bill Carter's son's wife is his father-in law's daughter. Now, if Tuck Phillips has a daughter born to him she will be Bill Carter's father-in-law's child and at the same time his son-in-law's child. But the thing to tell is what relation ship would exist between the respective children of the three couples in case* they have children.

He Tells the Shreveport Negroes They Are Oppressed-He Also Pockets All Their Cash-Remarkable Influence of an Ex'pert in Humbuging. NEw ORLEANs, March 25.-Shreveport the leading town of North Louisiana, has been excited for some time past with possibilities of race trouble grow ing out f lipver". ads. Liver "pads are the only subjeet of conversation on the streets to-day, and the Stafe, city, and parish authorities, backed by the unani mous press and the white people of that section, have sworn to drive the liver pads and their vendor, "Yellowstone Kit," from the town. Kit is well known from one end of the cotton country to the other. Traveling through it.as a fakir and-- a vendor of liver pads and popular medicines, he has made both reputation and fortune among the negroes. He pitches his tent, a big cie, too, in some Southern city, gives a free circus, minstrels, music and all that, makes speeches to the negroes, and then sells his pads to them by the thousand. In this way he has accumu lated in a few years a large fortune. He claims to be worth -$5,000,000, wears the purest diamonds in the South, and has made himself the idol of the ne groes. It is impossible to over-estimate the admiration they feel for him. He is regarded by many of them as their Messiah, the man who not only can cure their ills by his medicines, but who is destined to lead them to new freedom and prosperity. His influence with them was well shown in the great prohibition election in Atlanta, Ga., a year ago. Both the prohibitionists and the "antis" bid for his support, and every inducement was offered him to come out on either side, but he kept silent on the subject until the very night before the election. Then he burst forth to the thousands of ne groes present with a short but strong speech against prohibition. He is a vigorous speaker before a black audi ence, and he settled the election. The negroes voted solidly against prohibition and drowned it; and every one in At lanta admitted that to Yellowstone Kit the result was due. Such is the man who opened his tent in Shreveport a couple of weeks ago, gave his usual free show with some theatre performers, made speeches to the negroes, and sold his liver pads. The show soon acquired an even greater notoriety than Kit had bargained for. He is a strong advocate of "the right of the negro," and in his speeches usually touches on this subject. He went a little further than usual in that line in Shreveport, and declared that the negroes were be ing ill-treated, defrauded, and perse cuted by the -whites. The coloredpeople are in aniajorityin Shreveport and the neighboring country, and there has always been some offishness there on the race question. Kit's speech caused some little alarm and was denounced as in cendiary by the press. He replied with a-stronger one, -and the white people then became much alarmed lest he might stir up trouble with the negroes, while the latter got the idea that some harm was about to be done to their Messiah and became boisterous. Thus the race feeling grew more bitter andmitense.: It was tinally decided to get rid of Kit on the charge that he was a nuisance;. that he had violated the li cense law, &c., and he was arrested and taken before the court, charged with a number of offenses. It was then seen that the situation was really serious. The negroes flocked to his as'sistance by thousands, and expressed a strong de sire to release-hun fromn arrdst by vio leii~e.'fid he& giien' thd word or en couraged them a .sernous race riot would invtably ffaveifollded He'taw the result; jeiraded the ne groes to be quiet, and went to court and bonded himself by paying down his bond in cash, for he could get no white man to go his seenrity. By thislime all parties were excited by. the -affair. The episode had only made Kit dearer ta4ie negroes, giving *them grcater confidee in him, and ad verted-hibi through al- the country a~rondShreveport For every dollar of business he had done before, he now did ten, selling .from 8500 to $1,000 worth of his mediciacs a day. The negroes flocked into Shreve port from the surroun~ding country; tn.ws always crowded with thousands of persons, andhis speeches followed each other in rapid succession Yellow stone Kit is to-day the idol of the North Louisiana negroes, and tens of thous ands of them would do to-morro.w what ever he told them to do. Says a Shreve port paper on this subject: "If Abraham Lincoln could rise from the grave tb-day the niegroes of Caddo Parish would not regard him with more blind idolatry than that which they be stow upon this fakir who, under the forms of law, is robbing them of their money." There has been genuine alarm ever since over ths subject, The whites de care that the negroes have become ag gressive and turbulent. So far Kit has stuck to his post,I although the situation has been growing more threatening from day to day. No legal way of getting rid of him has been found, as he bonds himself out with cash whenever arrested. During the last few days there has been a disposi ion to get rid of him by extra legal means, and White Cap notices arc pour ing in on him warning him to leave the town. He is demoralizing labor, the whites say ; he is creating an ill-feeling between the races; he is capturing all the money of the negroes : he must be compelled to leave. Ihe fakir, however, finds Shreveport a good field, and he intends to stav. Should violence be tried against him he has the negroes at his back and could cause a great deal of trouble. A race riot growing out of liver pads is not at .all improbable in Shreveport. Politics are quiet and busi ness slumbering, while the citizens discuss the question of how to get rid of the dangerous fakir. After the Fall River Strike. F.u.

AFFAIRS AT ANDERSON, Father and Mother Charged With the Murder of Their Daughter-An Ugly Case. ANDERsON, March 28.-ISpecial to The Register.]-On the 21st inst. Dr. S. J. McElroy of Pelzer swore out a warrant against James S. Mabaffey and Nancy C. Mahaffey, his wife. charging them with the murder of their daughter. The facts seem to be something like these: Their (laughter was unfortunate in her waywardness. and was about to bring shame upon her family, or rather to de velop the shame she had already brought on them. The parents undertook to avert this, and the result was an abor tion, causing the death both of the child and its mother. An inquest was held and five doctors were present and made a post mortem examination. Dr. McEl roy; upon the facts developed at this inquest, made the affidavit on which the arrest warrant was issued, and the mur derers of 'their own daughter now lan guish in the jail at this place. B. C. Hard, Trial Justice, issued the warrant. HIS PLEA FOR SELF. Dr. McDow Communicates With a Me= phis Friend. Mr. Charles Baybon of Memphis, a friend, schoolmate and associate for many years of Dr. T. B. McDow, the slayer of Captain Dawson, has received the following letter from him: CHARLESTON, S. C.. March 18, 1889. Mr. Charles H. Baybon-My Dear Sir: Your highly appreciated remembrance is-at hand-what a treat it was to me. My heart went back to my old home and friends where 1 was so well and so favor ably known ten years ago. I have in no way, let me answer you, renounced the claim they hold upon me. Taught from childhood to lisp the accents of truth, I can never eradicate them from my bosom, and let me assure you, I am neither a cowardly as sassin, nor a self-confessed "rake and libertine." Actuated as 1 have ever been by a conscientious rectitude of pur pose, I trust I have nothing to fear before and impartial jury. I place myself before God and my country for trial. I have done no crime. Your friend, T. B. MeDow, M. 1). Amusing Indian Fables. The Indians of North America had a large stock of stories resembling the fables of Esop. They are stories of animals, and many of them are in form as if first told by animals, not unlike that of the Georgia negro stories pop ularized by Uncle Remus. Mr. Gordon reports the following from New Bruns wick: The clumsy butt of all the other ani mals was always Muween, the bear, and the cleverest were the panther, Shoks, and the fisher-marten, Pekquan, but these had not the same rank with the tortoise, who, to my surprise, was considered the great lord and chief among the beasts, although his awk wardness and helplessness led him into many and unpleasant and ludicrous po sitions. There was one very comical story of his going out hunting, drawn on a sled or tobbogan by two moose. Of course he met with many misadventures. The boughs swept him off his sled without its being perceived by his steeds; he got entangled in creepers, and finally his team became so tired of their load that they made a hole for him in the ice, and left him there. But, by dint of subtlety, he shot the moose of which they were in search, whilst his compan ions returncd empty-handed. On an other occasion he sell into the hands of enemies, and escaped from 'them only bya series of clever stratagems. Youth's Companzion3. The Archaeological Treasure. During some excavations for an eu, larged heating apparatus at the Abbey Church, Sherborne, England. a leaden coflin was found about ten feet beneath the level of the floor- of the nave, and near the west door. It was placed with the feet to the east. It was opened and was found to contain the remains, ap parently, of a young girl, the outline of whose features was singularly clear, although~entirely blackened by time. It was the opinion of a medical man present that the deposit was a thou sand years old. Within the leaden coffin was a wooden shell, much de cayed, and the remains themselves pre sented the appearance of Charred pa per.--N. Y.
