.BLOODY WORK IN NEW ORLEANS
Tlit* Italian conspirators, who some
.months ago,were responsible for the
murder of the chief of police, and
who were aevuitted by the jury, have
been killed by a mob of indignant
citizens. The vengerence of the mob
was wreaked upon them in open day
light, and was composed in a large
measure of prominent men who were
determined I hat these murders should
not escape. They were all Italians
and members of a secret society,
called the Mafia, whose avowed ob
ject is secret assassination for any
supposed wrong suffered by any mem
ber of tiie band. The jury were sup
posed to have been bribed, and a
number of them have left the city.
Lynch law is always to he depre
cated, and despite the miscarriage of
justice, it would have been better,
even under such aggravating circum
stances, to have let the murderers
leave the city, as they uncjucstionably
to operate, and the absolute certain
ty ThatThe money thus lost, will
have, in some way, to t»e made good
by the tax.pavers. Of course if thfc
commissioners are satisfied that the
interests of the State hare suffered;
it is cleanly their fluty, at all hazards,
.to protect tjp'in; but in enforcing
the letter of the law, there is danger
that their zeal, in behalf of the State,
may unconsciously cause them to
violate its spirit; which, as wc under
stand it, is to secure the largest jtos-
sihle revenue to the State, consistent
with fairness to the Phosphate Com
panies. 'Flic Coosaw Co. is rich and
powerful and they evidently mean to
make a determined fight; and what
the outcome will he it is im]iossihle
to foresee. The matter is further
complicated by the fact that the
Coosaw Ifiver is navigable, and in
some respects is under the jurisdic
tion of the National Government;
and in all probability the Supreme
Court may have to decide as to the
conflicting claims.
It is possible that the commission
ers may feel sure of winning the case
and ultimately reimbursing the State
for its present losses, hut it must be
admitted that they have assumed a
very grave responsibility, and the
progress of the fight will be watched
with great interest by the tux payers.
The Coosaw Co. pay over one hun
dred thousand dollars in royalty, and
and the loss of this will very materi
ally affect the rate of taxation.
Another item of interest, especially
to farmers, is that it may raise the

like it, hut soon realised that it did
-him good. This was the case with
the South; protection Would he cram
med down its throat until it liked it.
Mr. Frye’s illustration Was a very
good one, except in one particular,
for it is very certain that the boy,
South, will never become reconciled
to the castor oil of protection, especi
ally since Dr. McKinley has under
taken to prescribe for him and lias
seen proper to very largely increase
the dose of this nauseous stuff. To
make tiie matter worse, the boy
South's big brother, Wctf, has also
reached the conclusion that, in some
mysterious way, his constitution has
undergone a change, and has found
that so far from helphing him, it
was rapidly undermining his
health. With two of her boys in
open rebellion and the other two not
as obedient as she could wish Dame
Columbia is having a pretty unpleas
ed time; and she very seriously fears
y hut these ungrateful and rebellious
boys will soon insist on managing
the family to suit themselves, and,
in revenge for being dosed themselves,
force the Old Dame to drink freely
of the life giving waters of Low
Tariff. If Mr. Frye would come a
little further South, he would he
asked to explain how it will help the
South to pay several million dollars
more than she ought for bagging and
- ties, laxity nothing of a great many
other articles on which they pay un
necessary taxes. If the National
Government got the money it would
not he so had, but .it simply goes into
the pockets of ti few manufacturers,
who are getting rich from this
iniquitous tariff, and who by their
influence have manrged to keep this
burden on the people for a good many
years. The whole thing can he
summed in very few words, taxing
the many to enrich the few. The
Southern farmers dont care in the
least if their bagging happens to be
made in Asia and the ties in Europe;
what they insist on is getting them
at the lowest possible price. 1’cr
imps without being conscious of it,
the fanners were waging war more
against the tariff than the bagging
factories, when they made such a
stubborn light against the jute bag
ging, for without the protective tariff:
th 'occasion for the contest could
never have arisen.
THE PHOSPHATE W AR.
Tiie contest now going on, between
I lie Phosphate Commissioners on one
hand and the Coosaw Co. on the
other, promses to he a long, bitter
and expensive one; and, at this junc
ture, it is impossible to form a cor
rect opinion as to the real merits of
the case; tiie only certain thing about
the business being the fact that the
State is losing a good deal of money
each day ting the Coosaw Co. fails
exception of a few papers, there is a
disposition both on the part of the
press and public to give it a fair
trial, and not hamper its work by
harsh or unjust crriticism, hoping
that it may realise the utmost ex
pectations of its most sanguine ad
vocates. There is however one of its
requirements, against which we wish
to enter a most emphatic protest, and
that is in regard to tiie non observance
of the Saturday holiday. We con
fess to being old fashioned enough
to ardently believe in the wisdom
and necessity of an alisolute rest from
study on Saturday, and the doing
away with it as it holiday in our
schools is both unwise and injurious,
and tiie ultimate result is loss instead
I
of gain. The old adage “AH work
and no play makes Jack a dull hoy,”
is ns true to-day as when first w ritten;

the present day, there is a very great ^
