The notorious case of the State of South Carolina against James H. Tillman, indicted for murder, in the county of Richland, came on to be heard in Columbia on a motion for a change of venue, before His Honor Judge D. A. Townsend, and after hearing read an avalanche of affidavits and arguments made thereon, an order was granted for the tria] of the cause to be had in Lexing ton county. The matter of changing the venue, is entirely discretionary with the Judge, and it would be highly improper to criticise his ruling: the fact of their being a large number of citizens who swore the defend ant would not be able to get a fair trial in Richland, and a large number of citizens whc swore directly opposite, was sufficient to show that a strona doubt existed and, as the de fendant's life is in jeopardy, he is entitled to the benefit of any substantial doubt. The attorneys for the defense, in their arguments, laid particu lar stress upon the influence the Columbia newspapers had, to in flame the prejudices of the peo ple of Richland county agains1 the defendant,claiming it made it impossible for him to get a fair trial. We have read almosi everything the Columbia news papers had t say on the subjeci of the k' g of N. G. Gonzales, ahdf do not recall a single .AM ial which was unwarrant PW-ed, or which will verify the statements and arguments of counsel for the defense; the ar guments on this line was a mass of shrewd, deceptive clap-trap, intended for a jury to be em panelled in-the future, and no1 for the Jndge who was hearing the case. We doubt exceedingly if the world has ever witnessed s higher example of high-toned and consistent journalism, thai the Columbia State hassexhibitei throughout. Its editorialecolumns after the second day, an absolute silence,and its news columns turn ed over to other hands; we doubt, if under a similar provocation: that there 5s another newspape' in the world which would have adopted such a dignified course We have commended editor W E. Gonzales a brother of the de ceased editor for refraining fron writing anything which could be construed into an excuse for the cry of persecution, although his provocation could not have beet greater. The slayed editor in his life-time was a strong champiot of law 'and order; often in his fight for the majesty of the law, his language was impolitic, bu1 it was the truth, and Gonzales dared to tell it-impolitic, be cause it gave demagogues capita. to excite the populace to con demn him-once he was burnet in effigy, because he denounced lynching, but it did not detei him from continuing his figh1 for the uplifting of the law; that his successor in edi torial control, should maintait the* principles so earnestly ad vocated by his lamented brother: and former chief, is conclusive evidence of the sincerity oj State's profissions. Those prin ciples are now written in the blood of the founder of that jour nal, and they are a sacred monu ment to his memory. News paper throughout thc civilized world denounced the killing o1 N. G. Gonzales, and they char acterized his slayer as a mur derer, an assassin, and a coward it is true, but after the second day when the signed editorials of Capt. A. E. Gonzales and Mr. J. A. Hoyt Jr., appeared, noth ing editorially regarding Tillman has been published in The State which could possibly excite prej udice against the defendant, and all of those speeches before the Judge, in so far as they relate to the Columbia State were design ed misrepresentations. The case will now be tried is another county, all the- safe guards to insure justice should be thrown around the State and the defendant, South Carolina is as much entitled to protection as is any of her citizens, and as this is a case which is being watched by. the entire world, every pre caution should be taken for ab solute fair play. The prominence of the deceased, and the defen dant, should be eliminated, th-e case tried strictly upon the in dictment brought, and a verdict rendered according to the law and evidence: those whose duty it will be to empanell the jury should be scrupulously careful to avoid the suspicion of sharp -practice. The trial of James H. Tillman, charged-with killing N. G. Gon zales, is not a political issue; it is not a question of "icommercial ism" as ex-Judge Buchannan ar gued before the court, when refermg to the newspapers, nor is it a case which demands ad judication from the standpoint of let them lump it" these shocking words he is reported to have used in a temple of justice. Judge Buchannan is a brother-in-law of the defendant and his zeal may overbalance his discretion but his intemperate defiance must have horrified the presiding Judge,for we dorzbt if such an un- i seemly expression has a prece- I dent in a court of law-none of V these elements should come into e the cause. It may do as a vote- i maker to decry "commercialism" b from the political stump, to put d an opponent at a disadvantage, P but when the State charges a citizen with a crime, it is not for a the purpose of gaining an ad vantage over an adversary, but that the crime charged may be judicially investigated, and to punish the guilty; therefore the people of Lexingtoncounty have had imposed upon them a plain duty-a case has been sent to them to try according to the law and the evidence; they are not f to be influence by any other con- t siderations-favoritism or preju- 0 dice, either will be deplorable. s If from the law and evidence, a they conclude that James H. o Tillman was justified in killing t N. G. Gonzales they are in duty a bound to acquit him, but if they find from the law and the evi- t dence that the killing was done t without legal justification. they should convict him, but whatever the verdict, let it NOT be in fluenced by a spirit of "By grabs, if they don't like it, let them lump it," nor spite,politics, prom inent connections, or anything i else, other than a clear con science.

Hall's Family Pills are the best.. 1 There appeared in last week's Kingstree papers a letter signed by Dr. A. M. Snyder which 1 graphically relates a most sen sational drubbing Dr. Snyder received at the hands of Capt. t J. A. Kelly, Intendant of the 1 town. The affair grew out of t Dr. Snyder's 'criticisms of the town council; corruption was charged. According to Dr. Snyder, he was inveigled into Captain Kelly's office on the pretense of a friendly meeting, and there in the presence of Kelley's friends, was beaten 'nearly unto death and forced to sign a retraction. Captain Kel ly is known in this town and county, Dr. Snyder is not, but if the signed statement of Sny der, as published in the King stree papers is true, our people will feel heartily ashamed of Kelly's cowardice. Any citizen has a right to criticise public omcers, and when he does, in sedof the officers replying by1 entrapping the critic mnto an office, and there attempt to stifle ] his voice with cowardly assas sination, they should make a fair, open and full accounting through the same medium they were criticised. Public officials are the servants of the people. and to the people they must account. We know nothing of the merits of the con troversy between Dr. Snyder and the town council of Kingstree, but we do know that the methods resorted to by the Intendent of Kingstree to procure a retraction has lowered him in the estimation of high minded people, if what Doctor Snyder has recorded is the truth. This is not our affair, but one of the parties is well k-nown here, hence we refer to it, and also be cause there is a disposition on the4 part of some of our men who hold offices,to resent being questioned about their public acts: they would regard any criticism of 1 their official acts as interference I with their business; this is a mis taken notion, and the sooner they 1 are made to understand that 1 "public office is not a private snap" the better it will be for them. We sincerely hope for< the sake of Captain Kelley's form-i er good reputation here, that he has been grossly misrepresented by Doctor Snyder whom we do do not know, but who is report ed to be a manof good character.

About the new jail, I agrece with our Paxville friend about building a jail with money that can be used for the . schools. 1; The building of a new jail was settled t by ballot. The taxpayers voted "No I Jail"; the people have said by their ac-c tion in a primary, they do not want a C a new jail now, and they prefer the pro- 1: fits from the dispensary to go to the a schools. The ternmsof ourschools ought I to be lengthened. They think ther-e u ought to be a better jail, but why not let them have a voice in the matter?

It is Entirely Out of the Question to Try to Bring This Great Theoretic Subjunctive up in Opposition to the Practical Indicative." Be Gorros! A portion of an article from our .iend "Paxville" appearing in the ;sue of this paper dated June 17th, is ) eminently conspicuous for its ab ,nce of argument that a few remarks i reply will likely not be out of place. 'he part of the article referred to is at entitled "About Schools." After eading the whole of this portion, one an only conclude that Mr. "Paxville" opposed to the building of a new jail y any means, for he very forcibly con emni the provisions made for that urpose, and does not offer any propo itions or suggestions by which such work might be accomplished. I shani ttempt to take the said article apart to ome extent and refer to it piece by iece, hoping thereby to comprehensi ly show that the opinions contained herein are not well supported. - "It does seem that there is a certain tness of things when the dispensary >rofits are to be used for jail building." 4ow, shall we have a new jail? Surely here is not a citizen of Clarendon who ill answer in the negative. In the Erst place, our progressive ambition .emands it, and it is just as important Dr a county to have a specious jail as o have gorgeous churches and schools, r any other public buildings. In the econ'd place, our pathos with refer nee to humanity pleads for a decent nd comfortable arrangement for those f us who are so unfortunate as to have o occupy a position behind the bars of , jail. Thanks be to civilization, our ethod of punishment is not to torture a a filthy cell before an impartial rial; it is after trial and conviction hat our prisoners are sentenced And, Do, we must not forget the fac; that 3any who go to jail to await trial are s innocent as those who stand by and heerfully see them conducted into that >ison. Then, if we are to have this Lew building, the necessary funds can ome from nowhere except from the axes paid by the people. Now .f they Dust pay for same, what difference does t make whether they get the money >ut of the right-hand or left-hand pock t? Will it amount to practically the ame? "The concern is a splendid factor in -aising jail-birds." Doubtless it is con :eded by all that whiskey is among the eatest evils of the world, but the re Eults of its corruptness are principally >erceptible on the moral character, and tre not nearly so manifest when we ome to investigate the causes of crime. "If we educate properly, jails and ispesaries will sink low in places hey shall occupy. The dispensary will lose and the jail poorly tenanted." It s all right for a sentimentalist to sit Iown and dream ideals, but it is en irely out of the question to try to bring his 'great theoretic subjunctive up in >pposition to the practical indicative. think it only philosophical, and not >essimistic, to say that it will be many -ears before the human race will attain his coveted paradise. I do not know rhat friend "Paxville" means by edu ate properly." I can conceive of no orm of education that would so revolu ionize humanity as to eliminate crime >efore the old jail could rot down en irely, if allowed to stand. "No the dispensary furnishes enough or the jail without giving its profits to t." Attend any of our court sessions Lad take note of the charges brought a ainst the prisoners, and you will find hat very few of them are therb with he dispensary as either the direct or ndirect cause. As stated above, the worst abusers of whiskey are not the mes who occupy our jail. I hardly deem it necessary to state in onclusion anything regarding my oh ect in submitting this writing or the tand that I take in the matter: a care ul reading will be sufficiently explani ory. I only ask that you give each side he consideration that it deserves. R. L. JONES. Nashville, Tenn. Very Remarkable Cure of Diarrhoea. "About six years ago for the first timd n my life I had a sudden and severe at ack of Diarrhoea," says Mrs. Alice iiller, of Morgan, Texas. I got temn Orary relief, but it came back again Ld again, and for six long years I have uffered more misery and agony than I an tell. It was worse than death. My usband spent hundreds of dollars for hysicians' prescriptions and treatment ithout avail. Finally we moved to 3osque county, our present home, and me day 1 happened to see an advertise nent of Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera md Diarrhoea Remedy with a testimon a of a man who had been cured by it. Che case was so simular to mine that I Loncluded to try the remedy. The -re ult was wonderful. I could hardly re mlize that I was well again, or believe it culd be so after having suffered so long. hat one bottle of medicine, costing but few cents, cured me." For sale by The 1. B.

It would be a great pleasure to me per sonally to meet again all you teachers who were in attendance last year and renew the ties of friendship and pro fessional interest that were established. I trust you found the work of last year of such interest, pleasure and prof!t as to induce you to return for another month this year. To those of you who were not with us last year we extend a hearty wish that you may be this. The association, for four weeks, with the teachers of your own county where you can exchange experiences, talk of mat ters of common interest to the teacher, and have your professional spirit quick ened will be of untold benefit to you. The course of study this year will em brace Civics. History, Algebra and Pedagogy. Both Mrs. Eolladay and I will do our best to make the work at tractive and pleasant, but at the same time let it be understood that thorough, earnest work is expected of every one. I know it is unnecessary to appeal to teachers to seize every opportunity for improvement: so come and let us do each other good, get a firmer grasp on some of the things we teach, learn bet ter how to present these things to the child's mind, have our pride in our lorious profession revived.
