April 19. 18U4 d ti NORTE CAROLINA is interested already - in Vance's successor. ti - - b WE nominate B. R. Tillman to Suc c ceed Gen. Vance in North Carolina. 'i e GEN. WADE MAMrON has issued a call for the organization of National Democratic League Clubs. MADALINE ought to keep out the s newspapers now. We are glad that s she is not going on the stage, and we hope she will also decide not to write up the trial. n WADE IIAMPT)N was in Columbia in d '76 when the people were wild with W excitement and he counseled for peace. A He was in Columbia th3 night of the Darlington tragedy and he counseled t for neace. 1 -- a] THE more reasonable and candid v followers of Governor Tillman admit that McLendon was largely responsible t( for the Darlington tragedy. The t] coroner's verdict says so, and a fair t< and honest jury free from all preju- l< dice will say so. THE Bishop of Chester, England, has written to Governor Tillman for an ofcial report, or rather an authen- d tic account of the riot at Dat lington. n We hope he will send him the account of Rev. Mr. Stout, of the Baptist ~ Church at Darlington, who was an i eye-witness and who helped to protect McLendon. t BRtECKENRI)GE has resumed his seat s tialt'o a public -speaker-respect. No A matter what msay be the powers of a n man, he cannot gain the attention of e an audience and enlist their interest unless his audience have respect for a him. Possibly some other members of Congress are no0 better than he, edil d they have not been exposed. 0 -~ o: IF what the newspapers iu Georgia i say can be taken with any weight, o General Evans will be the nrext Goy- *1 w ernor of that State. We have read a few of the speeches, and we are better w pleased with General Evans than with Colone. Atkinson. The latter devotes ~ too much time in prsising himself h His whole effort sems to be to con- ni vince the voters that he mnade a use ful member of the Legislature. He cer tainly is not deficient in arrogance. S _____ ____ ____ ___-vi IT is said that the House of Rep: e- si sentatives have a rule providing for ~ the fining of Congressmen not attend- is ing its proceeding. It is hoped that 01 the rule will now be rigidly enforced. pt If the Senate has not such a rule, it ~ ought to adopt one and execute it. ca It would be interesting to know how b< often Senator Irby would have been th fined had such a rule been enforced. gI We doubt whether his salary would ar ~ have paid his board bill in Washington. AccORDLNG to the Greenville Kews the military court at Darlington was n< composed as follows: Capt. J. A. Mooney, Butler Guards, Greenville, anti-Tillmanite. F. Capt. J. H. Harvey, Gordon Light be Dragoons, Berkeley County, Till- bt manite. at Sergeant J. C. Cooper, Tillmanite, b~ Corporal A. D. Milster, Hampton T( Guards, anti-Tilimanite. vi Private F. HI. Dantzler, Fort Motte 0: Guards, Tillmanite. Three of the five are Tillmanites- an WE are glad the House Committee:D has had the boldness to adopt a rule, whereby a quorum can be obtained. ca eblocked simply by members of fo' of the party has been its timidity and Y utrum.nsrTism ave ngeatwri too much for a presiding officer. Under the new rule, however, two be tellers of different political parties will ? be appointed and they will count all ch members present whether voting or e not. tic We guarantee Johnson's Magnetic flv Oil; it has no superior fr all aches ' and pains, tnternal and external, man ta or beast. $1.00 size 50 cts.: 50 ct. sizer 23 cs.

Dear Courier: There has been an undance- a deplorable excess -of !ws from our aillicted community in e secular papers of the last week, it the brotherhood may very nat. -ally be desirous of hearing some ing from one who occupies my po tion here. in your judicious editorial of thi' eek you touch the cause of our ca mity. It was not the law. but the ethod and the men employed in the Iministration of the law, that ex ted the animosity of our people; and seems clear that the criminal folly id passion of.an officer to be dan rously lacking in self-control, struck e spark that caused the conflagration re. Our people had recently been irred to great indignation by the antom search of an old lady's trunk. his was utterly without excuse, and ne in a spirit of bravado. They spected when an increase of the con abulary force was made without any tanifest necessity, that some usual rocedures were intended, and the Lere rumor that it was the intentioi E the constables to search private uses was enough to put the endur ace of anexcited community on se ,re tension. Prudent counsels held jr people back from interference. And these selected officers of a most ifficult and delicate service, allowed emselves to be drawn into a per >nal quarrel between two youths, st at their leaving town. The en re truth of the said affair will nevei e known, but responsibility for pre. pitating the fatal affray cannot be fted from the man who, with bittel irses and vile epithets, called oul Let 'er roll," and fired. The sequel-a whole commuunity Laddened over the death of two citi. -us-one of them one of the most olar young mnei in it, -and pur ing the fleeing murderers,-tha quel, might have been written be re the fatal shot. It was sure to llow. One of the constables left on the round was not dead, really he was At seriously hurt, but lay feigning eath when I arrived on the scene. It as suspected that he was not dead. [en, sobbing with grief over the forim E their friend, Frank Norient, were ireatening to shoot this mnan who ied him. Norment's father and :hers restrained then with diflieulty, d the man was removed from the iew of the crowd. Such was the bitter feeling of mnany >wards this man that at the requelt the sherift I rode with him undor ie protection of a guard of soldiers i the jail. And after he was safely dged in jail, I exerted myself per mnally along with some others to pre nt the lynching that seemed to Le amineut, taking a message to men tost determinea upon tho horrible eed from their murdered friend's other and wife, begging them to do o violence to him. And now I submit, that when after nusual exertions of this sort had een hardly enough to prevent the -nching of McClendon, the taunt, why didn't they lynch the man who mey claim originated the trouble and h'om they had in their power" >unds passing strange. u~i-eul s if~ ossa lig nd it has ever since continued to be >rmfally quiet, but it is impossible to :press or adequately suggest the ep, burning inclignation of our peo .e, that this community has been bjeted to such an experience of imulation, misrepresemnat ion, mnur r and official wrath. The coming troops, welcomed by us; their comn ander's declarations as to the lack necessity here for there presence; e verdict of coroner's jury, and that the military cou.ncil, bupporting ir contention that the catastrophe as caused by the constables; thc 2al departure of troops, are all too eli known to be recited here. Let me say, that the killing of a ~gro man on the :lrd by a stranger re is regarded by our people with served indignation. It had no con ~ction with the affair of Jarch 30th. If the fatal and deplorable occur nes, of which I have tried to write ith moderation and with pains tak g accuracy, and the consequent con tlsin of society throghout the State all cause the chainges in the presenit ethods and personnuel of the admninis ation of the dispensary law, that are iperatively demanded for thme sake the peace and welfare of our whole ople. and shall produce a. radical vision of the law so as to satisfy the oral sense of ou': people, or shall use the total obliteration of the law cause of its impracticable nature, hen some little compensation will be ied for the heavy cost of death d social disorder we have suffered.
