Tom Sims Captured.
On the first of February of last year
Josh Henderson, a negro on )r. Cald
well's place, was found dead in his
house. Upon investigation it was the
opinion of the Coroner's Jury that he
had been dealt with foully and the cir
cumstances pointed to one Tom Sims
the guilty party. A warrant was
issued and Sins was arrested, but on
the way to town in charge of Mr. W.
W. Caldwell, as constable, Sims broke
loose and made good his escape. Sheriff
Riser got on the trail of Sims some time
ago and worked up the case until he
had him captured last week near Char
lotte, N. C. He left here on last Satur
day and. returned on Tuesday with
Sims in charge. Sins is now in jail to
await his trial on the charge of murder.

The Fight Still Carrie! on.- Indications
Kennedy Dirigute.d With
W;nnamiaker.
The Newberry postotfice matter i-;
still before the authorities at Washing
toil, and is the bone of contteition. Mr.
Wanamaker smiles and listens to the
petitions and entreaties of the contend
ing parties, but does not say what he
will do. So the matter stands from
week to week, and the poor newspaper
men in Newberry endeavor each week
to get up a new local and give fresh in
formation on the matter that will satis
fy the pubiie.
It was reported oa Monday that Rus
s eli had the appointmellt ein colnditiol
that he would nmake Whitmire his
deputy, but the report could not be
verified. Kennedy says he was pres-it
at one interview between Wanaiaker
and Russell, when Russell was asked it
he received the appointlent whether
be would make Whitmnire his deputy,
and on his replying that he could not,
Wanamaker told him he could go.
The following interview with Henry
Kennedy was published in Monday's
News and Courier. Kennedy returned
from Washington last week.
WASH INGTON, July 25.-Hen ry Ken
nedy, of Newberry, S. C., who was a
delegate to the Chicago (onvention
and a strong Harrison nan, has been I
here for several weeks endeavoring to
effect a settlement of the contest for the
Newberry post-bffice, where Charles
Whitmire, colored, was appolite in
May last. The white patrons of the
office threatened to boycott Wana
maker's business house if a white man
was not made postmaster. Whitmire's
commission was thereupon witheld.
Kennedy says:
"I am disgusted with the way things
are being managed, and so are the ma
jority of my people. I am going to
speak my mind when I get home, and
tell the colored folks that they need no
longer look to the Republican party for
their salvation. We are only to be given
the crumbs, except in a few mdividual
cases, and white Democrats who pro
mise to become Republicans are to be
given the fat places. There is absolute
ly no use in our fighting any longer to
keep up a Republican organiAation. The
colored people are already looking on
the proposed national election law
unfavorably. It will be a delusion and
a snare for us. It simply means that.
1we are to be abandoned in our local
struggles as we have been since 1876.
WNhat we want is a recognition of our
full political rights in State aftairs as
well as national. In fact, this is worth
t infinitely more to us. If the Republi
can party wants the colored voters to
continue to give it their support, it will
have to be a great deal more liberal
with us in its policy than it has been.
The colored people are no longer frigh
tened by the bugaboo of the re-estab
lishment of the system of slavery,
which kept them for so long a time
scared out of their wits. They know
full well, even the most ignorant of
e them their freedom is secured for all
time, and now their only political
concernl is for their rights of citize.n
4ship. If the Republican party only
means to secure >such legislation as will
protect themi in their support of its own
domination, it will be better for them
*~to be let alone. There can be nothing
more foolish than the suppositioni that
the colored people will vote for Con
gressmen and in other ways keep up the
animosity existing between themi and
Ithe Southern whites when they receive
Ino encouragement ini their efforts to
elect State officers. I am in faivor of nmy
semaking speedy terms with the
3 Q gopleof the Southb, for in such
course Thre lies the whole solution of

Kennedy was s n"i by The Herald
a~d News yesterday a w hen asked
about the matter, said he might have
r,said a good deal of what is thmei'e re
ported, for he was very much warmed3
~rup at Wanamaker's action. "Why
does he not let the matter come to ar
, end," said Kennedy. "I can't seelany
r- other reason than a fear of injury tc

e erefuses to assign any reason whyl
s.the appointment is called in. My race

iss nno intimation as to when the figh

I could niot force an officer to make ai
Sappointment, and I replied, I did ne
lesire to force him, but wanitedl himt
stand up to what he had done."
rI would seem from this that Hear
'~and Mr. Wanamiaker were not gettin
nflon so smoothly.
Henry said he received a telegrar
from Washington on Tuesday that we
n very encouraging for Whitmire, an
n that lie knew a great deal more, as the
Sall do, that he could not give to a ri
d edporter.
ieThe following is taken from ti
ayWashington Press of July 17th.
v.s When the Baptist colored clergy m<
ied as usual Monday they were wvaited upX
iii by Charles W. Whitmire, of Newberr;
its S. C., who represented to them that 1
had received the appoi ntmnent as pos
intilmaster of his town, but that his con
.gemission had been witheld by ti
aidostmaster General because the whti
a aepublicans of Newberry objected
haing ina black man handle their letter
uld r. Whitmire, through his story of Ib
ererrongs, induced the conference
appoint a committee to wait upoii gi
Wanamaker to protest against wit
holding of the commission. The con
miittee, headed by the Rev. Dr. W.]
Johnson, called at the Postoffice Depai
memt yesterday, and placed the matt
isst before Mr. Wanamaker. The Poi
ama mster General listened attentively
ngg the story, and then said:
the "I have been sincere in all actions
ndd the Whitmire case. Mr. Whiitmii
tes s from the commtIencemlent, has uisre

of there were nO white Republicans

presentations I had determined to

to the man who is to be postmaste'r tI
lie appoint him his chief deputy. Nc
however. as I find that Whitmire 1
so wilfully misrepresented the positi
of the administration in his case,
shall have nothing."
uts Mr. Wanamnaker then referred to
love for the colored p)eop)le, and, sayi
Itthat le was nto politician, informed
hearers that he was determined th
should be no color line in his depn
itth ent. He asked that the miemci

they had been imposed upon by Whit
mire, declined to leave the address, and
expressed regret that they had been led
to take any action in the matter al
all.
Hicks says that he has it direct fron:
the Postmaster-General that no Demo
crat shall be appointed. He says thai
as soon as the appointment of Whit
mire was made, letters and telegrami
poured into Washington from Demo
crats and Republicans, asking that thi
appointment be held up, as it wouk
not strengthen the Republican part;
here. Hieks also knew a great des
more, but did not care to give it to
reporter.
Sam Chappell has also returned fron:
Washington. He says that to speak i
general terms he is ;well pleased wit1
everything. To speak more to the posi
ofice question, he said that when hi
left Washington, the information hi
had was that everything was workin
well for his man. He was solely in th
interest of Robert Moormnar.
Chappell says the report that he so]
out to Whitmire is absolutely false. 11
says there is no chance whatever f<
Whitmire. Wanamaker toldl him sa
Whitire, however, is to get a positic
