The organisation is to be formed oder the resolutions and letter submitted to the State Survivors'Association by Gen. M. C Butler, al Columbia, at the last meeting of the State Survivors' Asosciation. Assistant Postmaster. We understand that Mr. E. I. Reardon is a candidate for the position of first assistant in the Sumter office, under the new regime Emmet has made an obliging, painstaking clerk and The Freeman would not like to see him displaced. We believe he has given g nerai satisfaction, and everybody wants him retained. Besides this, it is very important that he should receive the appointment, as his matrimonial expectations are based upon it to some extent, a certain voung lady (so it is rumored) in this city, having promised to ''specify" if he should be appointed for four more years.- Tlte Freeman. ' If a word from the press can do anything towards insuring the above mentioned "spe cifications" The Watchman attdSoxthro, caa be relied on to recommend Mr. Reardon io: the position to which he aspires. He has proved himself to be the man for the place. A Policeman Cut. vOo Monday night about o'clock. Police man Belk arrested William Preston for curs ing and disorderly cooduct on Main Street, and turned bim over to- Policeman Nichols to take to the 6oard House. When the Guard House was reached, Preston asked how much money be would have to put up to get out. He was told and putting bis band into his pocket took tc k out a bill and banded it to Mr; Nichols. Mr. Nichols held on to Preston with his left baad while unfolding the bill with his right to examine it. When Preston got bis mooey be also got out a regular coon raxorj unnoticed by Nichols, and while Nichols was examining -the bill, Preston slashed bim across the left arm just above the wrist, cutting it to the bone and stvering every leader and tendon. Preston dashed down an alley leading into Harvin street, with Nichols right after him, shooting as he ran. Five shots were fired none of which struck the mark. Preston was beaded off and captured on Harvin street and now occu pies a ceil in the Guard House. The cut on Mr: Nichols' arm is a very ugly one, and it is feared that he will lose the use of his. hand.., ' entirely from the effect of the cut. Shot In Self Defense. Yesterday aft?rnoon about sunset Willie Reames, son of Mr. W C. Reames, of the Fork pection. dangerously shot Lawre ce Washington, a burly negro man about forty five years of age. From Best accounts it appears that Wash ington, who is regarded as a mouthy and domineering fellow, had on several occasions attemped to bulldoze young Reames, wbo is a delicate yoong fellow of about twenty-two years of age. Yesterday afternoon while yoang Reames was in a branch sear his father's, shooting squirrels, be met up with Washington, who began to abuse him Reames started to go home, and the negro followed on to his father's. He even at tempted to take the gun from Reames, and getting a stick told Reames if be would put bis gun down he would kill him. During one of these threatening attacks, young Reames emptied a load of squirrel shot into the negroe's head, which will prob ably result in his death. - Maiming Times Nov. 16. The negr died on Friday last and the Cor oners inquest held on Saturday rendered a verdict in accordance with the above. From Mr. W. S. Reames of this county a relative of the young man who did the shooting, it is learned th*t the negro followed him into the yard, and that be called several members of the family and told them he intended shoot ing the negro if he followed biro further When be said this, the negro raised the stick and made for bim, and ne shot him down. The State Pair. To the face of the hardest times tbe State ha seen in a number of years, a larger crowd than ever attended the fair this year. On Wednesday many people said that the record bad been broken and Wednesday instead of Thursday would be the big day, but the crowded trains of Thursday morning proved the falsity of the assertion. The maiff build ing was a perfect jim all day and the enl re grounds were fibed by the overflow of Visit ors. The Paine Fireworks exhibit was very fine and was undoubtedly the drawing card of tbe whole week. The Cleveland celebration on Wednesday night, to be candid, was Dot what migbt have been expected of Columbia. The stores and houses were not decorated nor illuminated more than usual, and the procession was both short and unenthusiastic. Sumter's little celebration, in spite ef the rain, was much nearer what a celebration ought to be. .Sumter, as usual, was represented by a larrie crowd, and they continued going over until tiie last day. Sumter County had quite a number of meritorious exhibits. The old reliable exhibitors from this county-Mr. Tbos. O Sanders, and Mr. Wm. M. Graham were on hand as they have been for these many >ears, ao<< took the premium- as usual. Dr. Archie China exhibited some of the pretties* chickens oo the grounds, and he earned off the prizes ia nearly every iostauce in which his fowl cass* to compe'itioc.

Mr. Editor: I notire that in referring to my speech of the preceding Saturday, in an edi torial of the 9th instant, yon placed some severe and uBderservir.g strictures upon me, but, I feel, not with harmful designs. My audience was not only composed of Re publicans and colored men, but I recognized in their midst, during my entire ppeech. as respectful and attentive hearers, some of the roost intelligent Democrats ai:d honorable white men in the county, which tn those re spects rank with any in the South, and I now put each and every one bf th* m upon his honor to deny the assertion, when I say that no incendiary language was i-sed hy me. if yon were in the habit of writine such diatribes and prejudicial editorials, both I and the public would know how to judge you, but when yon make such a departure from joUr us'.n'l cairo, dispassionate and judicious course, I would be doing the public great in justice and myself much harm to let it pass unnoticed and the impression remain upon the minds of those who know me so differ ently. But I feel very grateful to yon for leaving room for doubt, by refusing to father the per nicious charge. I suppose the charge was made by some one, who caught only a part of my remarks wheo I was quoting the reasons given by some Northern capitalists why they will not invest io the South, which is, that Southern ers go around gunning at night for darkies and the day of retribution is near at hand when they will rise with a rifle in 00e hand and a torch in the other and lay our land tn ashes and blood, and that investments aie not secure in such a land. 1 have never hid to say whatever I had to say in public, but always welcome and re joice to see my white fellow-citizens at eve re gathering where I am to speak. Living together, related and constituted as the white and colored population of the South is, on account of traditional and acquired prejudices, each has much to bear in dealings and connections with the other and none but fools and nt sub jects for the gallows on either side, would fan into life dangerous prejudices and passions, or invite the eruption instead of destroying its magnitude, of the seething and angry volcano that without mutual mod eration and deliberation is bound to burst through the thin vista of time with which it is cohered, Notwithstanding the hue of my skin, I am a South Carolinian to the manner born, and will yield to none of her other sons regard less c color or condition, tn love, de votion, and ardent wishes to see her outstrip every other State of this Union in everything that is honorable, pro gressive, grand and enobling in the race of life. I trust that I never shall be regarded the blinded and idiotic Sampson who would at tempt to tear away her pillars to be destroyed in the fall and ruin of her proad and magni ficent structure. It is true that I desire to represent that por tion of the slate in Congress to which I have teen elected, included within the confines ot the 7th District and bargained off tu my race without its consent, in all of its present and prospective glory and not iu its ruins. I am faithfully 3 ours, GKO. W. MURRAY. A. C Ii. Notes. Capt. Jno. F. Divine, General Superinten dent, Capt. B. R. Dunn, Eugineer of Road way. Mr. M. -W. Divine, Assistant Engineer of Roadway; Mr. G.

Upwards of \t50(t new passenger coaches are "being built and over 400 new en gines have been ordered-to be delivered .be fore May ls', 1893. The Illioois Central has given ordets for 300 cars and 50 engines, the North Western 180 cars and 40 engines, the L.-.ke Shore Road 120 cars and 30engines, and all other roads io about same proportion. It is estimated that about $7,000.000 will be invested in rolling stock and motive power by the Chicago roads. A working model of the record-breaking locomotive, invented and patented by Master Mechanic Jackson Richards, of the Philadel phia and Reading Railroad, has been on exhi bition at the Builders, Exchange in Chicago. Mr. Richards says that if the new engine be will send to the World's Fair can not mate over 100 mi es per hour he will give it to the first min he meets. This engine has 6 feet driving wheels and four cylinders instead of two. Wedgefield Items. Mr. Editor: Having not seen an* dots from our "little city" in some time the writ er will endeavor to contribute a few items, which we trost, will be read with interest by some of your many subscribers. Quite a number of our citizens attended the grt nd Democratic rally in your city on the night of the 14th instant, and enjoyed the occasion greatly spite in of the extreme in clemency of the weather. Such grand, true and ova! gentlemen, invited to speak on the occasion, are held in the highest esteem* and admiration by the people of our country, and will never fail to receive a hearty elctne al the hands of the '"Game Cocks." Toe high school at this place is in a very flourishing condition. Miss Lucy Singleton, an accomplished daughter of our townsman, Mr. Richard Sin gleton, bas been elected to the Primary De partment, and will aid the principal, Mr, M. J. Green, during the entire session. We note wtih pleasure every increased interest- in educational work. For of all the subjMrts now claiming and demanding the attention'of our people that of education is far the most important-and since it is upon education that every successful business, agricultural and professional, is based, and upon which every prosperous and permanent government must be established, we hope the cause will receive every attention at the hands of all in every section. A most enjoyable evening was 3peot at tb residence of Mr. Jno. C. Singleton on Fri day ht?:. The programme consisted! of whist playing and dancing, which was participated in by all present. Mr. W. D. Graham, our highly esteemed friend, ii still confined to bis room from the sprain he unfortunately received not long since. Dr. Crocker has also been quite indis posed, but is eut again.
