JOHN WRIGHT HANGED TWICE
SOMEBODY'S AWFUL
CARELESSNESS
The News does not believe in
going into the horrible details
of a hanging, but merely desires
to call attention to the awful
bungling in the execution of
John Wright last Friday.
Sometime between twelve and
one the * ap was sprung and
the cor mned man is reported
to ha o hung several minutes
whe’ he was cut down and pro
nounced dead by several physi
cians present. Soon signs of
life oecame manifest and in or
del that Wright might hang by
the neck until dead, he was
hauled up on the scaffold and
hung a second time. This time
he was allowed to remain
hanging about fitteen minutes
at the end of which time he
was pronounced really dead by
the attending physicians. The
News does not know who is
responsible for the terrible man
ner in which the thing was
conducted but, for the sake of
humanity and the credit of our
State and county, let us hope
that no criminal will ever be
hung twice again in Darlington
county.
The cotton manufacturers of
New England have come at last
to the conclusion that some
radical change must be made
to save them from ruin on ac
count of Southern competition.
A reduction in wages is talked
of, but it will have to be a
pretty large one in order to en
able them to compete success
fully against tno Southern
mills.
Little did Massachusetts
know, when she was fighting
slavery, that South Carolina
would outstrip her in cotton
manufacturing in the next half
century. And yet why is it
that her statesmen could not
see into the future? Sound
principles of political economy-
demand that cotton shall be
manufactured as nearly where
it is grown as possible, but our
New England friends could not
see then that the abolition of
slavery would bring the
to the fields. Possibly some ef
them wr Id not be such persis
tent r litionist if they had it
to d over again with the pres
efit dghts before them.
time of the hanging and noth
ing was left undone which
might have saved the life of the
unfortunate man.

ENON.
It is reported that there was
a numerously signed petition
sent to the Governor from this
county asking him not to com
mute the sentence of John
Wright. It is very easy to un
derstand why people should re
fuse to sign a petition to save a
man from the gallows, but it is
most extraordinary that those
calling themselves Christians
should be willing to sign a peti
tion to hang one of their fellow
men. It . ■ even said that a
preacher signed .the petition
against commutation. Let us
hope there is only one such in
this section of the State.
A young attorney in Orange
burg by the name of McLauch
lin is going to test the new anti
lynch law. A negro by the
name of Sutton was lynched in
that county about a year ago
and McLauchlin is going to sue
the county for $‘2000 the money
to go to the negro’s relatives if
the suit is successful.
This is certainly a good hiove
and one which should be made
in every county where there has
been a lynching. Enforcing this
law will not of course stop
lynching entirely but will have
the tendency to diminish the
number.
Tin 1 town of Dornstetton, in Wur
temburi;, lifts its funds ho well inves
ted that the inhabitant., instead of
paying taxes, receive a bonus of 25
each annually, besides free lire
wood and free use of land for raising
vegetables.—Charleston Critic.
What a paradise—that is cer
tainly the place to which the
tax ridden people of South
Carolina should emigrate. If
Ben Tillman could get charge
of that town for four years he
would have each individual
paying $25.00 in taxe r, annually
and there would be nothing to
show for it either.
A prominent citizen of Dar
lington said the other day, that
ho thought capital punishment
ought to be done away with al
together in South Carolina if
we arc going to hang negroes
only. The News is in hearty
sympathy with this idea and
believes l.i the repeal of any
law which is enforced against
any particular class or race of
people, while other classes or
races are allowed to do as they
please.
This community is outraged
at the refusal of loverner El
lorbe to commute John Wright’s
sentence to life imprisonment.
Several prominent Tillmanites
have expressed themselves free
ly, and, if Ellerbo expects to
gain anything in a political
way on account of his action,
the News is of the opinion that
he will he most grievously mis

OATS,
Several of our citizens are at
Florence this week attending
the S. C. Conference.
Rev. P. F. Kilgo preached his
farewell sermon last Sunday,
Dec. 5th. His theme was “The
Rights of Cliristain Ministers.’’
This was a striking 'sermon,
and it was forcibly delivered.
After services, a church con
ference wns held and appro
priate res dutions were adopted
expressing regret at Mr. Kilgo’s
departure.
One ef our oldest and most
esteemed residents, Mrs. Ann
Oats, passed away quietly
Saturday morning and was in
n-rred at Wesley Chapel ceme-
tary Sunday morning. She
could truthfully say when the
grim messenger was hovering
over her, Oh, death where is
thy sting, Oh grave where is
thy victory.”
Mrs. R. E Huggins hand
some new residence is about
comple'-'tod and she hopes to
be numbered with us by the 1st.
of Jan. We welcome her most
cordially. An ideal family
such as hers is a blessing to
any community. Our gain is
Cypress’s loss. Our farmers
are now preparing to plant a
very large tobacco crops next
year. Several farmers in this
vicinity mane money this year
on tobacco and next year there
will be an increased acreage of
tobacco. The goats, worms

good time chewing tobacco.

BUTTERWORTH’S THEORY.
Hlf Lenient Way of Treating For Reforma
tion Embryo Criminals.
Commissioner of Patents Buttenvorth
is one of the men who bolievo that a
prosecuting attorney is better engaged
in side tracking embryo criminals cn
the road to perdition mid getting them
on the road to righteousness than in
corralling them for shipment to the
penitentiary, where they are thrown
into association with professional crooks.
Several years ago Major Butterworth
was prosecuting attorney in southern
Ohio and he had the opportunity to test
his theory regarding tho discrimination
that should be used in dealing with
men newly launched into crime. A
young farmer was arrested for passing
counterfeit sbinplasters, as tho 50 cent
note was known, and tho ease was put |

MOONSHINER IN REAL LIFE.
Quite Different From His Confrere as
Seen on the Stage.
The Kentucky moonshiner in real life
does not resemble his counterpart, de
scribed in novels and impersbuatod on
the stage, in the least. He does not
wear top boots mid a slouch hat. As a
rule he is too poor to possess the former,
ami he is more apt to go ban foot or to
amble along in a pair of woniout bro-
gaus than to wear top boots. His hat is
usually a torn straw “Jimmy” and his
clothes are yellow and faded with age.
Regularly, on days when the grand jury
meets in Louisville, a dozen or more of
the moonshiners uro presented for in
