“W. Told You So."
What has become of those wise-acres
who, in inference to the breaking up
of blind Vigers of Barnwell, said “it
couldn’t ® done?”
Mayor h. Emile Harley has been in
office than a month, yet in that
short time he has proceeded against
these persisent law-breakers so aggres
sively that two of them at least have
found it unprofitable to sell intoxicating
liquors within the incorporate limits of
the town. It took backbone, of course,
to proceed against them in the face of
what woe apparently a majority tn favor
of the ‘‘blinds,” but the enforcement of
the laws was the platform upon which
Mr. Harley made his race and his friends
are glad to see that he is so handsome
ly vindicating the confidence that they
placed in him by making his election

The farmer's can very well use the idle
wbe loaf on the streets with no
it means of support. While the
beiag done, let It be made com-
Caach Law.
The incident of a negro riding in s
Pullman car in this State, as reported
by John 0. Richards, railroad cotnnns-
> Mober, and the decision of the attorney
general that he has no power to prose
cute the Pullman Company, has excited
considerable newspaper comment. It
is said that a number of able lawyers
are of the opinion that the Southern
States that have separate coach laws
are in position to protect themselves
without any set of Congress. A decis-
. ion of the Supreme Court of Mississippi
is cited. A white woman of that State
was given a verdict of $15,000, later re
duced to $2,000, because the railroad
company refused to eject three negroes
from a sleeping car in which^ she was
riding. The court held that if negroes
are to ride in sleeping cars in Missis
sippi that they must be furnished with
separate coaches.
Another instance is cited in the New
berry Observer in which an old negro
body servant of Governor Tillman was
forced to leave the coach in which his
master was riding and get into the car
reserved for negroes when the train
crossed the borders of a state that had
the “Jim Crow” law.
Doubtless Attorney General Peeples
knows what he is talking about, but in
view of the above incidents it might be
well for the railroad commission to go
deeper into the matter and get it finally
settled. No self-respecting white man
or woman in thisState “hankers” about
riding with negroes—not if they can
kelp themselves, anyway.

& MJHHW, Editor ood Proprietor
al days hi regard to the hardship that
the May term of Court works on them.
Coming as it does st an extremely busy
season of the year, they feel that both
Judge and lawyer should push the busi
ness of the Court as much as possible
so that they (the farmers) may return
to their work. It looks to them that
there is much valuable time wasted
needlessly.
Last year, it is said, there were twelve
weeks of Court, an average of one week
out of each month. It does appear
to the average layman that the proper
preparation of cases before hand and
the cutting out of useless questions on
the part of examining lawyers would
expedite the trial of cases.
There was once a Judge in Cnicago
who, after hearing the case stated, al
lowed just so much time for its trial and
held opposing counsel to that time limit.
It is said that he disposed of more cases
than three ordinary judges.
It is quite true that “the mills of the
gods grind slowly.” Apparently in this
county they grind exceedingly slow.
Brother Knight, of the Bamberg
Herald, is not meeting with much en
couragement in his proposed plan of
separating the editors from their rail
road passes. So long as it isn’t against
the law for the said editors to accept
transportation in exchange for adver
tising and so long as they are satisfied
with the present arrangement, we do
not see where Editor Knight has any
kick coming. He once rode on a pass,
and The Orangeburg Times and Demo
crat wants to know if he will answer
questions in regard to how, when and
why he quit using it.

No, Ceieatlne. although heretofore
we have had a whole menagerie of

a single ooe of that breed for posterity

Mr W. Rexie Birt, who received hit
early training in the “art preservative”
in The People office, is now connected
with The Jasper Herald. He accepted
a position with the Hampton Guardian
about two and a half years ago, later
opening up a job pnnting office m that
town. It is understood thst he will
move his machinery and other equip
ment to Kidgeland. Mr. Dirt’s Barnwell
County fnends wish him success in his
new field.
