Yard-master B. F. Turner, of Co lumbia, and Joseph Taylor, a colored man, have been bound over to the Court of Sessions, charged with steal ing a carload of twenty-five bales of cotton from the railroad. Lewis Stewart, colored, who is to be hanged at Laurens to-morrow for the murder of his wife on :th May 183 has made a confession and says that he was driven to the deed by the unfaithfulness of his wife. He at one time lived in Newberry county. We publish this week the speech of Senator John Sherman deliv nred in Tennessee the other day. We sup- I pose it is the beginning of his Presi dential campaign. He is conserva tive in his utterances and is endeavor ing to catch the Southern Republican support. R. T. Jones. who was convicted of manslaughter at the last term of court for Edgefield, and sentenced to twenty-five years in the penitentiary, has applied to Judge Norton for bail, pending the appeal to the Su preme Court on the motion for a new trial. Benjamin F. Huger, Postmaster at Charleston, S. C., died on the 25th inst. There are a number of appli cants for the position. Some of them must have been presented to the Presi dent almost before Mr. Huger was dead, as the President is reported to have said he would take no action until the late postmaster was buried. In the case of Chas. P. Barrett a lawyer of Spartanburg. charged with gambling, at the recent term of court for that county the grand jury found "no bill" and the matter is ended. The matter has been ex tensively discussed and lawyer Bar rett, and Editor Jones, of the Spartan burg HIeraMd, had some lively writing about the matter. James G. Blaine has gone West to visit his daughter in Indian Territory, and to look after his private business and no doubt to feel the way for the Presidency in 188S, and Senator John Sherman has come South to start a boom for his nomination and election bthe Republicans in 1888. But with all this, Grover Cleveland, if he lives, will be nominated by the Dem ocrats and reelected President in 1888. The Evangelists seem to have cap tured Atlanta. About three weeks ago, Evangelist Tillman, went from Edgefield, where he had been holding a series of meetings, and spread his tent in Atlanta and began his preach ing. He is still there and seems to have completely aroused Atlanta. The C'on'stitutiont of 25th inst., s ays: The religious ball which was -at in motion in Atlanta a few weeks ago has gained such momentum that it is sweeping before it all wordly things. The spiritual awakening is more gen eral, more fervid, more p)ractical than any religious revival ever known in Atlanta. The atmosphere seems to be surcharged with evangelical oxygen, spiritual hydrogen and soul-reviving nitrogen. The various evangelical churches in all parts of the city have joined in the movement against Satan. Last night the meetings were sim ply overwhelming. Tillman's gosp)el tent was jammed, and scores of con verts rose and knelt for the prayers of the congregation. MIr. Tillman is receiving the cordial co-opcration of half a doze:t preachers. MIayor Harrison, of Chiicago, seems to take a rather gloomy view of af fairs in that citv. Anarchism and the anarchists seem to be the bones of contention. He refuses to allow the use of his name in connection with the office for another term. He "I am sixty-two years old, and a life of quiet 'for a 'few years may give me r. happy and vigorous old1 age. MIy fear is that we will have I some terrible trouble in this city in the next two years. If the supreme court gives the anarchists a new trial. Judge Gary has told me they could never have another trial. Theyv couldr not get a jury. These men' would give out that the-: were vindicated. and they would cause troub)le. On the other hand, if they were hung, we may- have convulsions. I have been successful in being able to quell all disturbances with the police. The( future may develop something differ ent. If I should be elected mayor j again. I should feel that I would 'not I dare to be away from Chicago w~here 1 a half day's ride would not b'ring me home." It see ms to us that there migh possibly be another matter whinch would cause nia~-or Harrison to take a gloomy viw of the futur of Chicag'. There ar said to be more more than thirty indictments now pending against "Boodle Aldermen" in the city of Chicago. In another column we print an ac count of the shooting affray in Trial Justice Biease's Court on last Satur day between Col. J. B. Jones and Col. George Johnstone. We have eIdeavored to state the fact- impar tinily and :tithout comiment as to that transaction. We regret very much that any such affair should. from any cause, take place in New berry. If these gentlemen had not been in violation of the law against carrying deadly weapons concealed, in all probability it would not have resulted so seriously. It was wrong in them to go armed in this way, and especially to go into a court of Jus tice with deadly pistols in their pockets. And as long as men of high standing in the community go armed, in violation of the law, and public sentiment stands as it does, we may expect such things to happen. And how can we expect men in the lower walks of life to be law-abiding when men of influence thus disregard the law. We some times think that the law against carrying deadly weapons concealed is a dead letter any way. and it will remain such, until public sentiment condemns i'3 violation in terms un mistakable. TH E EXPERIMEXTA L STATION. A joint meeting of the citizens of Anderson, Oconee and Pickens coun ties, was held at Anderson last Sat urday in the interest of securing one of the Experimental Stations to be appointed by act of the last Legisla ture. These three counties have combined and propose to put in a bid together and locate the Station, if they secure it, at some place conven ient to all the counties. Several bids were proposed from different sections. The most important action taken. however, will be seen from the follow ing resolution, which was adopted Resolved, That it is the judgment of this meeting of the farmers of An derson, Pickens and Oconee counties, that the agricultural stations provided for at last session of the General Assembly should not be located until after the next meeting of the General Assembly, when the stations as changed by the passage of the Agri cultural Education bill by Congress can be considered and provided for by the Legislature, and such addi tional offers as may be prepared and made in connection therewith from different sections of the State can be received, particularly as no practical purpose can be secured by immediate location. A resolution was also adopted re questing Greenville and Spartanburg counties to co-operate with them in this petition to the Board of Agricul ture not to establish this Experimnen tal Station. We do not think the Board is obliged by the terms of the act to proceed at once to the establish ment of the Stations unless bids from the counties or sections of the State desiring these Stations are presented and are acceptable to the Board. We understand that Laurens County has taken similar action to that taken at Anderson last Saturdav And that seems to be the desire of the Newberr-y farmers. We think it the proper and better course to pursue and our reasons are simple. If the Agricultural College is to be established the wiser plan seems to us to establish the col lege first and let the Experimental Stations be the outgrowth of this in stution and under its supervision and direction. It seems to be the almost unanimous wish of the farmers to have an Agricultural College, and if they want it we see no reason why they should not have it. The better plan then will be to establish the college first and then let the Experi mental Stations be an outgrowth from it and save the ap propriaitions made by the last Legislature to help in the establishment of the college. We hope that all the counties con esting for these stations will take this view of the miatter and ask that the matter of establishinlg'these sta Lions be deferred for the present and re have no( doubt that the Board of griture would withhold action. The Inter-State Conunerce Bill >assed by the last Congress. and ,vhic-h will go into effect in a few lays, seems to puzzle nearly every ody in trying~ to find out exactly that is intended by it. We do not >elieve there was any need for this~ ill, and do not believe that it will e of any benefit to the commerce of he country. It will take the Comn uissioners some time to get a set of ules adopted from it, and get it in 'orking order. No doubt a great lal of litigation will be the result of his law. The Atlanta Constitution avs: "It is no usual thingr for an act of ongress to be loosely drawn. Many ets have to be stretched upon the udicial rack to undergo the patceh vork tinkering of the bench lawyers >efore they can be practically utilized. We are accustomed to all this. he old gag of the lawyers about rivin.g a coachi and fou throug-h e yawn. g' gas of a statute no onger- strikes us as an extravagant 0 )oast. But. familiar as we are with tis sort of uLny. it must be admit tedl that the inter-state commerce bill makes us stare and gasp. Here is a bill concerning v.hich nothing dtfinite is known by any liv ing human hbeir. The author of " the bill h:s ira:kly a<hnitted that tr the p)u.-biities al p)otenitialiti(,s la v.rappe'd up in his o-.%-n overpowering C diction are h)(oin(1 hi - com prehensioin. The able advoent-s and opponents of E the bill a;re-d upon only one point, n viz: that ther di1 not u11dertan( it. \( The railroad'men. expss men. law- C yers and ]business :.("en in every t 11 of the country have risen en masse Ii to pronounce the bill hope-lessly un- ' intelligible. ( Under the circunstances, then, it (1( is out of the question to ex)eet any P speedv settlement of the points of i difieulty with which this bill fairly 10 bristk-s. It will be a work of time th for the comm11issioners to formulate a e] Pod of rules, and it will take years et for the courts to dispose of the litiga- w tion that is sure to result. ft Perhaps it was a radical mistake to ti call such a measure an inter-state A commerce bill. State lines are mere ly political. When it comes to geog raphv, commerce and material things, the states are not separate entities. We do not need the regulation of d inter-state coi)ierCe so much as the ti regulation of commerce between far r( apart commerce centers having con- 1l flicting interests. E But it is necessary to go thorough- T lv into the discussion of the subject. .y The bill will have to be amended a again and again. It will have to run J through the mills of justice. Possi- t bly it will, in the course of time. be r moulded into an efficient and bene- h ficial law." ".WOMAN Sl"FFRAGE." b We publish on our outside this n week the much-talked-of letter of ti M?. S. F. Chapin on the subject of P woman suffrage. We do not seq why t b the Adcocate refused to publish the letter. The position taken by Mrs. h Chapin is simply her opinion. and b she has a right to be heard. We see t< no argument in the letter to convince t us of the position taken by Mrs. Cha c pin, and we do not believe the ladies b care anything about voting, and do a not think the- would vote if the ti privilege were extended them. In C some of the Northern States the right of suffrage is extended the wo men in the electicn of school boaids, t and our recollection is that after a having this privilege for about six ti years. not more than an average of t one woman in twenty-iive takes ad vantage of the privilege, and we do t< not believe the proportion would be v that large in South Carolina. We t1 know it would not be among the ' white women. C If MIrs. Chapin desires the success of the prohibition movement she must work on the public sentiment and get a healthy public sentiment in favor of prohibition. Let the wo- t men use their influence in that di- 13 rection in their homes and around c their firesides and on their husbands, C fathers. sons and brothers, arnd her cause will be successful much quicker than by giving woman the ballot. b s Bloods~hed in C'ourt. The shooting afiray which took place ~ in the office of Trial Justice Blease, at 1t Newberry, on Saturday last, is a re proach to the State. The principals in t: the duel wvere not cowboys, but promii nent lawyers, men of fine education and B large political influence, w~ho, whatever their real or fancie d grievances, should have had some consideration for the public welfare. 3Mr. Johnstone is known as one of the c: ablest yong lawyers in the State. He tl ha:s several times tilled the position of a Representative from Newberry County, in the State Legislature, where he at tained distinction. In the last campaign c he was a prominent candidate for Con- V gress from the Third District, and at the I bar Nhas for a long time enjoyed an 0 enviable reputation. Mr. Jones is a 0 young lawyer of excellent origin and oft imuch promise. Both are sworn officers of the Court, and would doubtless de. noninee in others lawlessness of which J they themselves were guilty on Sat ur day. If there is any law in South Caro lina that will reach them, they should be most severely punished. What hiope is there for the State wvhen lawyers, who,a of all men, should be shinuing exemnplarse of the dignity and supremacy of the law, convert a crowded Court-roo-n into a 0 shooting gallery and try to fill each other's bodies with bullets! What fu ture can there be for South Carolina when huminan life is hell so cheap that 0o lawyers go into Court with pistols in their pockets, ready to shoot down each T other for "hot words,'' used in "the pro- 1.3 gress of ani argument:!' What right have wye to object to the criticismns of our pohitcal enemies wi-'en we sta:ini the temipie of jmi.tice itself with the blood of I personail foes: la1 From allI the ':irdim t anees oi thme N ew berry- affray whicbh have conie~ to our r knowledge, it appeurs that hoth Mr. Ii' Johnstone and Mr. Jones wvent into mn Court with the initention of "having a I, row." Each of them carried a pistol in a direct violation of the law in regard to T] concealed weapons, and the olfence is we punishable by line and imprisonment. i liot words passed between them. They p drew their wecapons, -md, in less t'han a th ninute, fired ninec shots at each other-.n They might have killed any innocent Hi person in the room. Mr. Johinstone was at wounded in threce placens, but not seri- mi oasly hurt, and Mr. Jones was shot it tbrough the body andl will p)robably die. de The trivial ease in which they were en- be gaged nas been amicably- aijusted, and co: their honor, it is to be presumned, has p been vindicated by the blood which was in: :hied in Trial Justice Blhease's Court. ha But this s.hould not be the end oi the de matter. Certainly there should be some wc neans by wvhmi the evii examle that he has hen in Newberry can be nmet.10v [:IHbi o;Puea is all wed to go u::punl- mi .sh. o:ur cou:rthonm.'

About the last of February, a neatly C ressed young nn presented himself at sei te AbbevilIC National Bank and rep sented himself as being the son of [rs. Jane C. Williams, who lived in dgefield, six or seven miles below roy. lie was possessed of a note for Y ,300, payable to Mrs. Jane C. Williatm, of ad sied by J. F. Wideman, A. B. be :ennedy and R. J. Robinson, all well > do citizens of the vicinity of Troy. le desired this note discounted, but was iformed by the bank officials that they of nuld not do so, but that if his mother, irs. Williams, would give a note to the H ank for $1.000 and deposit the $1,300 B ote as collateral, they would discount iat. In a few days the two notes, roperly witnessed, were returned with fr de request that the money be sent y express to Augusta. This was done. 'he party, however, failing to identify ac iniself in Augusta, rcquestel the bank, v y let:nr, to have the money seit back > Troy. This was also doie, but when ci be money was called for at Troy, there eing some suspicious eircuni-tancesu onnected wiih its delivery, and the ank being informed thereof ordered the ionev sent back to Abbeville.

A few weeks ago. in referring to in ae Court decision with reference to eu. de jurisdiction of Trial Justices in Cl ases of petit larceny, we stated that nc effect of the decision would be a at 3mnptation to compound the theft. Ve understand that a case in point a ccurred near Silver Street in New- ~ erry County, last week. A negro bole ten chickens; and the case was 2ttled without trial hv thce accused nying twenty dollars. This is not eg iw, but it is what people will do, if ermitted to, rather than prioseculte a G :ivial cas~e before the county courts. :ow the Solicitor of the First Circuit is Treat ing the Difficulty.

U.nder the recent decision of the at upreme Court in case of the State m g-ainst R~ob ert Jenkins. trial justices er -ere declared to have no jurisdictionN i cases of petty larceny, and the^ nly recourse was to commit all pris ners charged with the slightest 2eft to Jail until the next Sessions ourt. if they were unable to furnish ond for their appearance.
