Dastard Cowardice. In bitter shame for South Caroj. lina we record the dastardly and damnable work at Lake City Mou; , day night. Mob savagery reached irs apex lu it; the usual lynching for the usual crime were white-handed justice compared with it. In resentment of the appointment of negro * postmaster a party ot white men sur. rounded his honsa in the dead of ?*?. -> t- c? ... 1 ?:.i.11.1 :? FUlgat, set ure LU 11, nuu jiuukm iu with shot; the postmaster, seckiug to '' escape, was killed at his doo ; histwo daughters were shot and. the aecouDts say, maimed for life; his wife r. ' was wounded,and the inf ant in her r;' ? *rm8 wa8 falling to the floor *\V of the buruiug building, where with 4 . iM father it was consumed in the * ' flames. And this in South Carolina, this in a State aud a neighborhood j?.; ? where people read and vote and si; ' on juries, where Christianity is proffp-% " > fessed, where the church anil school ? honse send out their teachings and p1 the surpreniacy of law, the' enforce* meat of justice are the conditions of the social compact! Great God! con hi Apacbe savages be more cruel, more ruthless, more lustful of blood than these civilized white men of Williamsburg county? 'The race pride of these men, it pC? ' seems, was wounded by the appointli-*'' -' ntpnf. of a neoro nostmaster?so to I blazon to the world their high resent nieot and prove tb6 injustice of thus* L giving office toan inferior, they place themselves ou the moral and religj ions level of the aboriginal African, attack at midnight under cover of darkness?the many against the few, the strong against the weak and helpless?and they assassinate indis , ootniuately man, woman and child! f Where are the white man's characteristics in this deed? Where is his superiority shown? Where do we find ^*>ie frnits of his thousands of years of civilization and self-control and cultivated conscience? A negro postmaster! Is that a nnething to resent with assassinat"tion? ' Who are these people in Wil tiiamsburg county that iney cannot \* endure that which the most refined the most' sensitive citizen of ihe 8t*te has endured with patience and dignity in years gone by! Columbia had a negro postmaster for eight years Charleston bad a negro postmaster v for eight years. Dozens of South Carolina towns have had negro postmasters. It was offensive?necessarily soVbut who was hurt by it? None . hut the party that appointed them. By its persistent elevation of the tngro above the while man in the South I the republication party has sacrificed iU its opportunities; it has destroyed its hope in this section. That is its punishment, and Democrats who wish to see it weak and ma rued and future'ess here may well War with philosphy the in dictions by which it seals its fate* V Bat even if the affront and injury were unbearable, w!m> should be held responsible for it? Irot the poor negro who in taking ofiice acoeptedwhat it was bis right to accept; nut, his wife, his children, his helpless ba.be. Bather t<>e white man, the State boss, who hud him appointed; still ?: ... rather the president who made the appointment, or the national . ooss who oiade the bargain for votes a: St. Louts which has resulted iu the y choice'of negroes for Federal offices. . Not Baker, but Mark Hannu! All! but Webster aud MeKinley and Haniia are white men. and to attack them f'y , with murderous intent would be fraught with danger. And that is where the dastard cowadice of reti venge npon tie negro 'displays itself ??*' . ?revenge upon the tool,- not upon I- . the men who used it; revenge upon ft. the weak and unprotected, not upou the strong, entrenched 111 authority, jk*> - whose hurts wonld be avenged. We are shamed and sickened. For the sake of South Carolina, her good name, her pride and her manhood we I ^ v would have preferred to see a thous-! p s and lost in battle than have to record j such a coward's deed as that which j stains her today. All of us have toj bear the disgrace of it? the million innoceut alike ?ith the mob.
