THURSDAY. APR'L 6. 1905
Columbia has a base ball
player named Ham. We presume
his specialty is fouls.
These be strenuous days for
purveyors of news by the week.
Whal with a pending libel suit
against the Barnwell "Sentinel"
brought by no less a pe-sonage
than the trrand mnonil nf the
State's pet institution, the Hon
Hub" Evans, and the editor of!
the Georgetown ''Outlook"!
oeing threatened with extinction
by a wild-eyed fanatic, the span
of the newspaper man's existence
is destined to be brief and
i
full of trouble. Our bre thren of
the press have our sincere sym-:
pa thy in their troubles?especially
those of the more violent
sort. At best, editing and publishing
a newspaper all by one's
self is no joke, and to be bothered
by threats and attempted
intimidiation does not add to
the joy and hilarity of the editor's
lot
For months past there has
been a crusade against the
crime of murder in South Carolina.
Pulpit and press have
condemned blood-guiltiness in
no uncertain tones. Law and
TOUC1 ICO^UCO navv uvi. u iui iucu i
over the State with a view to
quickening the conscience of
even-handed justice, and par
ticularly to arouse a sentiment
against this particular crime,
so that men who serve as jurors
in such cases would be ashamed
?
to shirk their duty.
Naturally such influencebrought
to bear upon the situation
has borne good fruit. Normally
such a thing as a white
man being found guilty of murder
is a rare occurrence in South
Carolina, and for one to be sentenced
to hang is almost unknown
in the annals of our
criminal courts. Ked-handed
murder has stalked abroad, insolently
flaunting itself in the
face of cowering justice until
men became ashamed of the
wretched condition into which
s ociety had fallen and as a result
"there are now in South
Carolina six men under sentence
of death, having been convicted
of murder.
We should like to add that
frVio ?T?ni+iAii nf th#?se six mur
derers will in all probability
have so wholesome an effect in
rehabilitating respect for the
law and the sanctity of human
life as to strike terror to the
hearts of potential murderers
and give them Jpause ere they
give way to |their homicidal
.frenzy.
But not so. No sooner is a
murderer condemned to death,
than a| morbid sentimentality
takes the form and semblance
of the divine attribute of mercy
and begs for the life of the miscreant
who has forfeited it to
the law. Petitions are circulated
and before the day of execution
arrives the governor is
besieged with importunate pleas
from 'these misguided zealots,
who in their mistaken pity
would defeat the ends of justice
and^brn loose upon society
i dangerous criminal, ripe for
my enterprise of crime Jthat
h!s murderous fancy might
suggest.
^Indeed we have it, jl^fcout of
thif six Bee of
death in the State Governor
Heyward is beset with petitions
for the reprieve of every single
one. Now it remains to be seen
what manner of man we have
for chief executive. If he has
the "back bone" to refuse to in:
terfere at the behest of these
inter-meddlers, Governor Heyward
will have done more to
! stay the carnival of crime that
i has swept over our State than
any of his predecessors since
the war. What is needed in
j South Carolina is a few le^al
i executions and except for gubernatorial
interference we are
in fair way to have them.

COAST LINE BUYS
MANY NEW ENGINES.
IMPROVEMENT IN MOTIVE POWER AND
EQUIPMENT ALL ALONG THE LINE.
Florence, March 31.? Special:
The Atlantic Coast Line, in order
to make better time with all of their
trains, has recently purchased
from the Baldwin Locomotive
works, 66 new monster locomotives.
These new engines will be distributed
over both the first and second
divisions of their system. For the
division north of Rocky Mount
and south of Richmond, 20-inch
cylinder engines for passenger service,
will be used. South of Rocky
Mount and north of Savannah 19inch
cylinder engines will be used
in the passenger service on through
trains.
The monster type of engines
known as the "trailers" will be taken
off the Florence-Savannah run,
and the new "copper heads" substituted.
Engines Nos 385-890 inclusive
will be assigned to the Floreucc-Savannah
run. These en
gines will pull 10 .Pullman sleepers
and make sixty miles an hour. Engines
391-395 inclusive will run between
Florence and Rocky Mount,
N C, and are the same as the Florence-Savannah
passeygei engines.
The new engines for the Rocky
Mount-Richmond run will be the
290-295 inclusive. These engines
will pull 12 sleepers and make sixty
miles an hour speed* >
The ''trailers," which are
now on the Florence-Savar.naa
run, will be placed on . the
Flo r e n ce-Charleston- WilmingtonAugusta
run and will be for
what is known iu railroad circles as
the "shoo tly" traius exclusively.
Some of them will be sent to the
Norfolk and Carolina division as
well.
The 17-inch cylinder engines that
are now used en the "shoo fly"
trains will be discarded and sent to
the branch roads of tht^ first and
second divisions of the system. The
growing passenger traffic and the
continued increase of coaches to all
of the trains on the Coast Line system
is the cause of this large addition
and change in the motive power
of that system.
In addition to the 66 engines the
Coast Line lias also purchased a
large number of handsome and
modern passenger coaches for both
their local as well as their through
trains aud they are expecting the
delivery of the coaches at their Wilmington
shops daily. Unless they
airi.ve very soon couches from other
roads will have to be rented, as
there are no idle ones on the system.
Last night the out-going trains from
this place were so crowded that the
passengers had to stand up and
tiiaro tcaa nnt. ?. c^Rch to be had to
relieve the situation.?News &
