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

Letter From Geo. W. Murray.
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.

The railroads centering itt Chicago are
making extensive preparations for the World's
Fair. 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

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.
A large number of the citizens of this com
munity attended the State Fair, and all seem
to have had a very pleasant time.
Mr. Lelon Kelley, formerly of this place, but
