WEDNESDAY. OCTOBER 8.
The Biskopville Post Office
Closed.
From the Bishoprille Eagle.
On Monday labour Post Office was
formally closed, by a postal official sect
here for that puopose, and oar mail is
now left ^a^.another office six miles
iuse, as John Wannamaker
it, "If the people of Bishop
ville will not stand ? negro post master,
they will have to do without a "post
office."
Perhaps a statement of the facts
leading op to this will be interesting.
Sometime ago Rev. I. H. Miller, a
negro preacher was appointed pott
master at this place. A few dajs after
. he assumed the discharge of the duties
of the office, he was arrested upon the,
street by the police of the town for
carrying concealed deadlj weapons,
there being an ordinance of the town
prohibiting the carrying of concealed
deadly weapons upon the person.
Miller was arraigned before .the town
council, tried, fo&nd guilty, and fined
for the offense.
After Miller was discharged by the
town authorities, a citixen of the town
went before a trial justice and swore
out a warrant for Miller for the afore
said offense, under the statutes of the
State. Miller learning of this, pro
posed to this prosecutor if he would
withdraw this prosecution, he (Milter)
would leave the place. This was agreed
to. Accordingly, Miller appointed an
assistant post master,?Mr. Scarborough
bur former postmaster?teodered his
resignation and left here, and thus
matters har e remained, until now.
We have the spectacle of the United
States Government playing the game
of**8pite" at a little country *own.
Because a negro official, violates State
and municipal laws, and is likely to get
himself into serious trouble thereby,
and to sa v. himself the penalties, which
he knows he justly deserves, abandons
his appointment, the P. M. Gen. of agreat
and powerful government, subjects all
the citizens of a town and thickly settled
community to the great inconvenience
of a want of mail facilities.
We suppose if the "Rev." ?. IL
Miller had violated every statute law of
the State, and every ordinance of the
town, the people should have stood
mutely aghast and let him alone, be
cause he held a post master's commis
sion from the great Sunday School
lecturer, the Hon. John Wannamaker.
If it has come to that, that we must
. allow alt manner of violations of law at
the bands of some Government pet, or
be denied those rights, ~nd privileges
and advantages, which under the con
stitution a ?. laws, and by virtue of our
being tax paying subjects, we are
entitled, then we say :
"Sweet land of Liberty^
Of thee I?"
Don't sing, not now.
ANOTHER STATEMENT?THE P". O. DE
PARTMENT'S SIDE.
. From the Colombia Record.
Fofsometime there has been serious
trouble brewing at Bishopville, in Snm
ter County, about the postoffice there,
and- last week it culminated in the
dosing of the office, with more trouble
in site for some one
The facts, as they are now made
known* show a condition of affairs that
are perhaps without^ a ^parallel in the*
istory of Uncle Sam's postoffice de-'
partaient. The people of this village
have simply refused to recognize the
. appointed postmaster of these great
United Stetes, and taken the law into
their own hands and appointed a post
roaster of >heir own, through intimida
tion of the regular postmaster, their ap
pointee backed by the people refusing
to allow a new appointee to take charge.
Yesterday Postoffice Inspector W. C.
Baird was in the city, and from him the
facts as fto why the office had been
closed by him last week were learned.
This peculiar condition has arisen
from the time early last winter when
the old postmaster, Mr/It! G.^ ScarBo
rough, wsis removed by th? Postoffice
Department and a negro, Isaac K
Miller, appointed in his place. When
the new negro postmaster came to take
charge he found his office boycotted and
himself in a community that bad no
love for him. The people were highly
indignant, and for a while the nearer,
postoffices were used. Finally, how
ever, they grew tired of this and tried
lo get the negro to resign, but he re
fused.
This refusal to tie;? demands made
them Luore troublesome, and soon the
postmaster and his aesistant found them
selves arrested on the charge of carry
ing concealed weapons. They were
tried in the municipal- court and fined
$25. T ley were bound over to appear
at the higher court.
Shortly afterwards it was proposed
to him that if he would recommend the
reappoioiment of Mr. Scarborough,
the case against him would be dropped
in the circuit cot and he would be
allowed to go frev With the fear of
the penitentiary thus waved in his eyes,
the nego relented and he did as ordered.
Yes, h j agreed to the proposition,
complied with the instructions given,
vacated his office, and as it seems,
without notifying the authorities at
Washington, tnrned his office over to
Mr. Scarborough. A short time ago
the post office department, becoming
aware of this in some way. decided to
investigate, and Inspector W 0. Baird
was sent down to investigate the matter.
He found things just as reported, and
the people more obdurate than ever.
He so notified the department, and a
short Tvhile ago a white man was ap
pointed.
The name of the new appointee is
W. L. Dennis, and he, on receiving
tho appointment, went to Bisbopville
and tried to qualify and take charge of
his office, but be could not, being pre
vented by the interference of the people,
and his consequent inability to give bis
bond. This was another dilemma, and
the Inspector went back and tried to
settle the matter, but this be found im
possible, and finally recommended that
the office be closed. Upon bis recom
mendation the department acted at once,
and be was ordered to close the office.
This he did on Monday as stated in
the Record. He loaded the contents
of the office in a buggy and carried
them to Sam ter. Here he turned over
all the stamps, envelopes, pouches, etc ,
to th? postmaster. Further develop*
m?nts are expected soon. As a resnlt
cf their own acts the people of Biehop
?Ue are without a post ofice, and will
rentaro without one until they decide to
receive Uncle Sam's appointee.
Making the New Metal.
Prof. Joseph M. Hirsh, of Chicago,
has exhibited the process by which he
is enabled to extract al am in um, from
clay at s cost of only a few cents a
pound.
Since the first announcement that the
discovery was ms.de the professor bas
been completing arrangements to be
gin active operations. He has leased
two five-story buildings. He claims to
have manufactured 2000 pounds of al
uminum already, and within a few days
the work will have a capacity of this
amount every week.
"I have solved the problem of ex
tracting the m etat from an aaueous so
lution," said Profi Hirsh to day; "and
the process has been so simplified that
it is surprisingly cheap, and requires
but little labor. Pure kaolin or clay
contains fifty-three per cent, of alum
inum. From the clay which I am
using l ean get sixteen and three-fifths
per cent, metal "
The New York Herald, which notices
the discovery, says it will be a long
time.before the metal will be produced
in such quantities as to warrant its gen
i ersl use.
The Chicago aluminum company is
to be -a corporation with $1,000,000
capital stock.
Named Them After the Lord.
Old Pete Robinson, who lived at
Worsbam, Va., is a pious negro, who
jogged along with his wife for many
years, naming a new baby every year
until seventeen unbleached olive branch
es bore scriptural names. Then came a
surprise. One morning the Presbyte
rian minister, while taking his con
8titutial, met Pete.
"Good morning, Peter. You seem
to be very much pleased at something."
"Yes, sah, I is. You see, de oie'
'oman 'creased de family las' night."
"Ah, in, indeed !
"Yea, sah, oar's two more little
lambs ov the Lord."
"Indeed ! ?ad what will you name
them?" N
"Gwine name'em after the Lord;
g wine name 'em Messiah and Hal
loway."
"Messiah and Halloway ! Where do
you get the name Halloway ?"
"Hi, man ! Don't de Lord's pra's
say 'Halloway be Thy name ?"

One of the old 4'Confeds" who smelt
gunpowder during the war and who is
always true to the best interests of the
State, said last Thursday : "I can't

A most amusing incident took place
in the voting at Laurens. Capt. G.
W. Shell had pledged bis vote for
Mauldin. Mr. Gray of Laurens,. was a
warm friend of Mauldin and had elec
tioneered for him. There is a third
man who el aimed that he voted for
Mauldin. When the vote was counted
there was a solitary vote for Mauldin.
There were three claimants for the vote
and the burning question at Laarens
is; "Who voted for Mauldin ?"
