k Cabans Encouraged
The Resolutions Will Have a
Good Moral Effect.
Habana, April S. via Key West.
April S.-The Cabans are greatly
encourager} by the action of con?
gress. They fray it is certain to have a
good moral effect, and hope for practical
benefit also. Members of good families
are leaving the towns and cities in great
; numbers to join tho insurgents. The
severe enforcement of Weyler's de?
crees is drivirjg many to take the Meld.
The soverncient has Btiil failed to
crush Maceo in the western province.
He is west of the strong line between
Martel and Majana, but several parties
! have crossed sod entered Habana pro?
vince. Lacret with 3,000 raen has en?
tered from the east. All the wires
west and sooth are cut and no accurate
Dews of the movements of the insur?
gents is obtainable. The government,
has been silent four days, although it
is known here that several important
engagements "have been fought. The
hospitals are crowded with wounded
and sick soldiers. Now that the yel?
low fever season is beginning, there is
no room for v?3tims. The prisons ?re
also "Siled with political suspects. Tbe
j government was obliged to transfer
\7G from Cabanas fortress to the city
j prisons.
? Gomez was last reported in St-nta
??lara province, moving in the direction
j C? Signanca vaiiey. His forces eoter
j ed the important town of San Juan do
j Ins Yeras, taking supplies and amrpuni
j tion The troops shut themselves in
forts and allowed the town hall and sev?
eral other, buildings to be burned
Refugees from the town have arrived in
Hanchueio.
The small Spanish gunboat Alvara?
do was badly damaged by tho rebel fire
in attempting to enter the port of
Marabi, near Baracoa. The balls shut?
tered the rudder, penetrated the deck?
house plating and traversed the sides.
The gunboat returned the attack three
times, but finally went to Baracoa for
repairs The official report says one
?sailor was wounded
Dering a night attack upon the town
of Hoyo Colorado, about 15 miles west
of Habaua, the Spanish troops-shot and
killed four women and two children and
wounded others. The troops occupied
four forts. The insurgents entered the
town, crawling on bands and knees,
fired-upoo the forts, burned a number of
houses and retired The troops later
seeing a group of people on the princi?
pal street, fired a volley from the fort.,
.mistaking the women and children for
insurgents, owing to the darkness.
The accident is greatly depior-ed.

j Habana's Bad Snowiag,

Officer Doty arrived this morning from
Habana and Mexico on the Ward line
' steamer Orizabo, Al Mexico, Presi?
dent Diaz afforded Dr. Doty every op?
portunity to inspect the sanitary ar_
1 j raegemeots of the city. The doetor
\ retrained in the city five days and visi?
ted the hospital??, .the board of health
and inspected the sewers and other
sanitary arrangements. He says no
typhus fever existe, 'but that there are
many cases cf small pox, which dis
eas is cot restricted la any way. The
sewer sr/stem is extremely inefficient,
but President Diaz has made every ef?
fort to ieaprov the system. All the
new sanitary works are piaced in the
hands of Dr. Edward Licea^a. who
was a fermer vice president of the
American Health association. Dr.
Liceaga and President Dias are very
much interested io these improvements
j and believe that they will add to thc
security of public h jahn,
j Dr. Doty arr-ived in Habana on Aprii
j 2 Habana in an extremely bad saoi

j tc the bay, which is almost land locked
i with but a slight rise und fal! of the
j tide, and receives the sewage, which
fills the harbor. Thc wharves are
infected and thc vessel loading and
discharging there are liable to the in?
fection.
Although at present the number of
cases of yellow fever \u Habana is
small, the season has hardly begun.
There is very little doubt that the num?
ber cf cases will increase, owing to the
political conditions which necessitates
the presence of a large force of fresh
j troops from Spain. These are unac
! climated, and a large percentage of them
! will probably succumb to tho disease
While in Habana, Dr. Doty wa.> ir,

SENATOR IRBY'S VIEWS,
At an early hour this morning, Sen?
ator Irby was seen in his room
Wfcat do you think of the result of
thc committee meeting '!
lt seems to be a drawn hattie. ?
made the best fight I could for the
Democracy of the State. I made a
speech favoring the resolutions offered
by General Gray, pledging participants
in the primaries to abide the result as
to the platform and nominees of the
national Democratic coovention.
Mr. Sligh urged vigorously the adop?
tion of his resolution, and it seemed a
contest between these two, but the com?
mittee was unwilling to make a choice,
if then; had been any way by which a
test vote could have been forced be
! twee bolting and anti-bolting the latter
! would have won, because there was an
unmistakable opposition to bolting the
national ticker. I don't think there
was a member cf the committee who
favored boliiog.
There was only one Conservative on
the committee-Mr. Gadsden of Ch artes
ton. He made a pceniiarly attractive
and impressive speech. Sever:.! of the
members have since spoken to mc in re
Terence to it.
The sentiment of rho committee
seemed to be that' it was a contest
among leaders and they were unwilling
to take any sides. In fact, one of the
speakers said, "if you adopt Mr
Sligo's resolution it. wiil be construed
as a victory for Senator Tillman ; if
Gen. Gray's resolution is adopted, it
will be Irby's victory ;" hence they com?
promised upon the resolution of Senator
Efird, which in effect, provides for a re?
organization, subject, to the provisions
of the Democratic constitution, viz :
that no white man shall participate in
the primary clubs who is not a known
Democrat, or a negro who has not voted
the Democratic ticket continuously
since 1876. This must be taken in con?
nection with, the rules of the party, that
are of full effect since their adoption in
139-i The effect of such rules is to
require a pledge on the parr, of the ap?
plicant for membership to abide the
result of the convention. The reso?
lution of Mr. ESrd does not say so
in so many words, but. as the chairman
of the party, { say that, thes?' rules are
still of force at)d have not been abro?
gated by the action of the last State
convention or by the action cf the com?
mittee to-night, and the Democrats of
of the State ought to see to it that
none but Democrats participate in the
election of delegates to the county
conventions. Any voter, I don't care
whether he is white or black, who is
not willing to abide the result, accord?
ing to my interpretation, is not a
"known Democrat" as contemplated, by
the constitution of the Democratic party
of this State.
This thing of white men "bullying
around" and theatening to bolt the
party ought to be rebuked, and now is
just about as good a time for it as I
know. I am sick and tired of tempor?
izing with whiners and men who arc
jj not satisfied with the management ajjd
leadership cf the party. ? know this
is pretty strong talk, but ?he sooner we
know who we are it will be the better
for all parties concerned and the Demo?
cracy of the State.
? If we badi not have temporized, in
'92 and '9-i you would not see all these
kickers or hear so much about Jeffer?
sonian Democracy now.
Do you think the negroes wili make
any opposition to the Democratic ticket
j ii; this State this fall ?
? do. There is very grear, danger,
and who could blame them with ali
this treasonable talk going on among
men who should in all consciences bc
loyal to the party. There are very
able men who are leading tho negroes
to this State ; Miller, Smalls, Wigg cod
many other?, to say nothing of their
white allies, are abie men and are
watching for and will take all the
chances in sight. ? understand ?hey
passed a resolution in convention to?
day looking to this very end. The
people of the State will be surprised
when they realize the number of regis?
tered negro voters in thc Stufe. A ne?
gro can be taught lo write mechani?
cally, his name, io a night. There
are hundreds of then) who own s800
worth of property. This is a right that
cannot be taken away from them by
manipulation or fraud, because it was
supposed to be an adjustment of the
suffrage in the State. If they have
10,000, 20,000, 30,000 or 40,000 reg?
is! red vote--, however, distasteful ir
may be, how are you going to keep
them from being counted.
] suppose, senator, yo?? w??] fcc found
o tba stump when tue eampaign
opens '
I v, III be round there and nothing
l<\ss rh au r h o verdict of :!;<: people will
satisfrae. I know thai politicians
don't i i lc o me, bur I don't hold their
c mn:lesion. I am not a tool of anv
one and ara swinging on nobody's coat?
tails. A primary ejection is what I
want, ir; which Jill thc Democrats of the
Slate can participate, and whatever
their verdie'' may be ? shaii be satisfied.

Anti-Lynchmg in Oliio.
Columbus, 0 , April S.-The sen?
ate to-day concurred in the Smith
anti-lynching bili, and it is a law.
The bill wa? written by Judge
Albion W. Tourgee. It makes any
county whose officials permit a
lynching to occur liable to the family
of the victim for damages. The bill
takes its name from II. C. Smith, a
colored representative from Cleve?
land, who championed the measure,
and is the result of several lynchings
of colored men in Ohio in the last
three years.

THE TROCHA THREATENED.
Habana, April 10.-According to

pected to occur very soon Twenty
five thousand troops are stationed along

The Veto and its Effect
Have the Magistrates any
Actual Powers Now?
The vetoing by the governor of the
act entitled, "To provide for the ap?
pointment of magistrates and to
define their jurisdiction, powers and
duties," '.viii probably sesult in trouble
before the matter can be finaiiy adjust?
ed. That act was passed in obedience
to sections '20 and 21 Gr article 5 of the
constitution, which reads as follows:
Sec. 20. A suf?cieot number of
magistrates shall be appointed and
commissioned by the governor, by and
with the advice and consent of the sen?
ate, for each county, who shall hold
their offices for the term of two years
and until their successors are appointed
and qualified. p]ach magistrate shall
have the power, under such regulations
as may now or hereafter be provided by
law, to apopint one or more consta?
bles to execute writs and processes is?
sued by him. The present triai justi?
ces are declared magistrates as herein
created, and shall exercise the powers :
and duties of said office of magistrate
until their successors shall be appointed I
and qualified. Each magistrate shall
receive a salary, to be fixed by the gen- !
eral assembly, in lieu of ali fees in j
criminal cases.
Sec. 21. Magistrates shall have ju- 1
risdiction in such ea^es as the general i
assembly may prescribe : provided, :
sr:ch jurisdiction :-hall nor extend to '
cases whe?e the value of property in ;
controversy, or trie1 amount claimed, j
exceeds 3100. or to cases where the ;
title to reai estate is in question, or to
cases in chancery. They sha!! have j
exclusive i urisdictioo in such criminal
r ... !
cases as tue general assembly may pre?
scribe; provided, furrier, such jurisdic- |
tion shall not extend to cases where the
punishment exceeds a ?ne of ?100 or j
imprisonment; for 30 days. Io criminal ;
matters beyond their jurisdiction to try,
they shall sit as examining courts and
commit, discharge or (except in capi?
tal cases) recognize persons charged ;
with such offences, subject to such re- ;
gulations as the general assembly may ;
orovide. They shall also have the
power to bind over to keep the peace |
and for good behavior for a time not to :
exceed 12 months
A prominent 'lawyer of the Columbia
bar was seen by a representative of j
The State and his views on thc subject ;
were obtained.
"Since the governor has vetoed this
bill." said the lawyer, "I hardly think
the magistrates now have any authority.
Section 20 -tates, 'the present trial jus?
tices are declared magistrates as herein
created, and shaii exercise the poweis ;
and duties o? said office of magistrate ;
until their successors shall be appointed
j and qualified.' This you, see, creates I
the trial justices magistrates but does
lot say thac their powers shall be the
I same as the powers of a trial justice
were.
"They shaii simply exercise tbe
powers and duties of said magistrate.
But what are these Dowers ? Clearlv
uot the powers of the trial justices, but
tbe powers of magistrates, and since
section 21 leaves the duties, jurisdiction
and powers of magistrates to be fixed
by the general assembly, I do not now
see where they have under the constitu?
tion, any-power whatever, except to
bind persons over to keep the peace as
sectiou 21 states."
The attorney general was called on,
but Judge Townsend, who was the
only one present, would not give his
views
The governor was not in the city,
and could not be seen.
It will be remembered by those who
read the proceedings of the senate, that
Senator. Barnweii of Charleston made
a speech when the bill was going
through the upper house, in which he
made the poiot that under thc constitu?
tion, magistrates could cot be removed
execept by impeachment;, as they '.vere j
on the same footing as other ministerial ;
officers of tiie State This view waa !
concurred in by the lawyers on both |
sides ;;f the bous". ?
The decision that is reached on this i
question will be interesting.

General Gray's Views.
GREENVILLE, April LO.-The News
will publish an interview hud with Get:
3ral Gray to-day concerning the meet?
ing of the executive committee on the
7th.
General Gray said: '"After s foll
discussion, lasting several hour?, i; be?
same quite evident that a majority of
the committee considered the advice
volunteered by Senator Tillman to the
State Democracy, however, treasonable
it might be, was only the opinion of an
individual and beneath the officiai
notice of the committee ; further, that
the ESrd resolution ratified the consti?
tution of the Democratic party, which
provides, or should provide a remedy
against all forms of treason against the
party, and if it does not, then it was
not in the province of the committee to
supplement, the constitution.7'
"Was a majority of the committee
ia favor of bolting the Democratic
party ?"
"I answer that question with pleas?
ure and emphasis : No. I believe a
large majority of the committee regret
exceedingly that Senator Tillman ever
wrote the Reed letter. Indeed, I think
the senator himself regrets having done
so since he sees bow fiat it has fallen
upon the State Democracy. From a
factional standpoint he made a mistake
similar to the one he made when he
agreed to an equal divide of delegates
to the State convention. Irby opposed
him the'" and he backed down, irby
is opposing iiirn now, and he will back
down again
Col. M. L. Donaldson of the na?
tional Democratic executive committee
received the following telegram from
The Journal, New York, to-day :
"What, in your opinion, is thc rela?
tive strength in your State cf the prom?
inent possibilities for the Democratic
candidacy such as Cleveland, Carlisle,
Whitney, Campbell, etc. ? is the

in your State to operate effectively
against Cleveland's chances for tue

Hog Cholera Remedy.
To the Editor of Thc Dal J j hem :
In connection with the present
great interest in hog raising will you
say ii word for us to tho farmers ?
We have a prescription that is said
to be an infallible cure for hog chol?
era. If this be true no one can esti?
mate thc amount of money that its
use would save tc our people We
are so anxious to have it thoroughly
tested that we offer to send enough
of the treatment for ten cases 0^
cholera to the first farmer fro~, eacj,
post office in South Callina, whe
during the month of April sends to
us for it and encloses ten cents in
stamps to pay the cost of postage.
We send the medicine without
charge upon the condition that the
recipient will advise us of the results
he secures from its usc. If ?5
remedy will successfully pass the test
of a trial by a different man at each
post office in the State we think its
efficacy will have been proved. It
has already been used by a few of
our acquaintances, and without a
single failure to cure, so far as we
have been advised. We are not
satisfied, however, with a few trials,
but whichever may be the result,
whether it be proved to be infallible
or not, we wis!) it speedily and
thoroughly tested. We can not de?
vise any other plan that will do this
so successfully as the one we here
propose.
We trust that you T I regard Vf as
within tho scope of your paper to
bring tins oiler to the attention of
your readers.
