Tile Shooting of Merl
A Sequel to tbePnonix Riot
in Greenwood County
Greenwood, February 21.-James
W. Tolbert has mat the fate he court
J;- ^d . He was shot today on the
streets of McCormick, where he had
;? been told that -be mast not go, or
else he Wvo?ld bave to die Before
he was shot down he fired two shots
at a young visitor to the town of Mc
Cerraiek, "A;maa.who had nothing to
do with th? row going on between
Tolbert and the citizens of McCor
mick- Both shots took effect, one in
the body and one in the hip. This
young mau? Mr. .Martin, was visiting
Me brothe^in-taw, M L Sturkey,
and was '.simply walking by, when
Tolbert,, according to the statements
of those, pr?sent, pulled out a pistol
and ffred ;at him. Immediately a
fuillsde be^an, with Tobert as tbe
target for .all the available shooting
irons in and around that vicinity
Tolbert ,cyvns quite a lot of land
around McCormick and some real
estate ?in the town He has never
attended to the renting of this'pro
perty in person until this year He
will likely never do so again Abont
a week ago be went down to Mc?
Cormick determined to 6tay In a
few days be received an anonymous
letter advising him to leave Here
fused to attach any importance to the
letter and went abont his business
of ?coking after his farm lands To
day he was approached by a crowd
of men and told to leave According
to the statements of the best men
present be attempted to argue the
matter -and told them to let it be
known that be iotendad to 6tay. ,Jo9t
abont this, time young Martin passed
by the crowd on the other side of the
street and seeing him, Tolbert polled
out his pistol abd .fired twice at
Martin .As stated above the shoot
ingr at Tolbert then commenced
Oaly two shots took effect, botb in
the "body Martin was hit in the hip
and in the body. There were no
more shots fired at Tolbert after he
fell. He was,carried to the home of
rMr Pick Hollingsworth and it was
stated last night that a heavy guard
bad been pissed around the bouse.
Yocog'M^rtin was carried into the
store of nts. brother io law, M. L
Sturkey, and his wounds immediately '
attended to by Br Melldeau. Even
if ToIberVs wounds do not prove
faial his- life is still in danger.
The'g?nerai opinion is "that if Mar
tin should., die there would be no
chance ?br.??lbert. Late this after?
noon-a ?phone message from McCor?
mick stated that a good many people
from the country were coming into
town and the universal opinion was
that Tolbert , had better be moved.
His physician said that he could be
moved, and bis brother, R. R. Toi- ?>
bert, expects to go tonight and have
him moved either to Augusta or
some place of safety
Jim Tolbert, as he is known, has
been obnoxious to the people of Mc?
Cormick ever since the Phoenix riot
in the fail of 1898. He rendered
himself doubly so by the celebrated
"conspiracy case" against some of
the very best citizens of* the place
in the spring of 1899 He has made
several attempts to get back here,
but every time be was told quietly,
bat none the less firmly, that he
could not ?tay in the town o? Mc
Cormick Despite these warninge
he has persisted and it ssems now
that he will give op his life for his
rashness The people of McCormick
are very cool sud very determined
He ha3 been told to stay away and
all wcold be well, but to try to come
back tbeie would mean trouble. The
trouble has come.

Manila, Feb 19 -Capt Jonss of the
E-gh?b icfaoiry bas arrested, at a town
on the bay, ta the province of Laguana,
Fbrentino Oriana and Miguel Ponce
de L^on, agests of the Tahaoaleria
Company, and William Webb, Pedro
Lorerzi and Viotoriaoo Sentana,
employed by (he. Philippine Tradiog
Company, on charges simitar to those
brought against D M. Carman, the
American contractor, namely, furnish?
ing; the insurgents with supplies. The
Tabacaleria Company, the richest
corporation in the Philippine islands, is
accused of aiding the insurgents often
and extensively. The parties arrested
are prominent persons and the evidence
against them is very strong.

neoted with thc Philippine Trading
Company, has been arrested at Manila,
and M. Edoord Andre, the Belgian
consul here and manager cf the Philip?
pine Trading Company, bas left hastily

Slavery io Anderson
The Court Unearths an Out
rageous Labor S candal.
There is a big sensation in Ander
son county as the result of informa
lion that bas developed about tb
practice of a shocking syetem c
slavery, contrary to the constitution
and ail forms of law The expose
comes as tbe result of a Negro mur
der, and the enterprise and courage
of a daily newspaper in giving tbe
faces
It seems that not long ago a Negro
named Wiil Hull, was killed while
attempting to escape from tbe coa
viet stookade of one Newell Newell
was before the court on the charge
of murder It developed that Ard!
had been arrested for violation of a
labor contract on a warrant sworn
out by Newell, issued by Magistrate
Gilmer and served by Neweli and the
magistrate's constable, instead of
taking the prisoner to the jail, as they
should have done, Newell and toe
constable took him to Newell's stock?
ade, where some 18 penitentiary con
victs were held for farm work It
was in attempting to escape from
there that Hull was killed, and as j
the case was going before the court !
Newell appeared to be guilty of no
higher crime than of the shooting of
an escaping convict The Daily
Mail, however, gave editorially, some
additional facts in the case, and dur?
ing the trial it developed that Hull
was being held in the stockade under
a remarably worded contract ; that
he had run away ; that the magis
trate had sent him back under the
forms of the law, and that in attempt
ing to escape the second time, he
was shot down by Neweli like a dog.
Upon realizing the enormity of the
whole affair, having secured addi?
tional information, Judge Benet re?
called the grand jory, gave it the
benefit of all information be had
gathered, and put in motion machi?
nery by which tbe slavery business
may be probed to the bottom. His
honor read to the grand jury, the
form of a "contract" that is in ase
by a number of prominent farmers of
Anderson county, including some
that have no penitentiary convicts
The "contract" begins '"Sooth Caro
lina-Anderson county," and is as
follows :
"This contract and agreement for
labor on farm, made, and entered into
this day betwe??r -, landlord,
party of the first part, and-,
Isborer, party of the second part,
witnesseth :
"That I,-, laborer, cf the sec
ond part,- do hereby bind over
and hire myself to - to do and
perform general farm work under the
supervision of said -, or his
agents, for the period of -
months, commencing - and end?
ing -, and as pay for the said
services ? am to receive the sum of
$-per month, together with my
board and lodging, which wages,
less --, or any advances made to
me from time to time, and lost time
at-per day, is to be paid by me
at the expiration of above time. I
agree at all times to be subject to
the orders and command of said
or his agents, perform all work re
quired of me. -, or his agents
shall have the right to use such
force as he or his agents may deem
necessary to require me to remain on
bis farm and perform good and natis
faetory services. He shall have the
right to lock me up for safe keeping,
work me under the rules and r?gula
tions of his farm, and if I should
leave his farm or run away he shall
have the right to oiler and pay a
reward of not exceeding $25 for my
capture and return, together with the
expenses of same, which amount 60
advanced, together with any other
indebtedness I may owe-, at the
expiration of above time, I agree to
work out under all rules and regula
tions of this contract at same wages
as above, commencing-and end
ing -
' The said - shall have the
right to transfer his interest in this
contract to any other party, and I
agree to continue work for said
assignee the same as the original
party cf the first part.
..-I. -, landlord, party of the
first part, hereby agree with and hire
the said-for the above time, and
pay wages as above set forth and
otherwise fulfill my part of above
agreement.
"Witness our hands and seals this,
the-day-, 189-.
-(Seal.)

In commenting on the above, the
judge remarked that it would be
legal to identify the possessor of the
legal acumen who drew it op. He
described it as having no force in
law and ae being contrary to the
constitution and contrary to good
morals He thought there should be
special investigation of tbe magis- !
trate who issued a warrant under
such a paper, and he told the grand
jury to procure a iiet of ali the so
called landlords and laborers who
were parties to such contracts in
conclusion be 6aid :
Mr Foreman acd Gestlemen : As
white men living in a Stats vrhcrc so
large a portion of our population is
oomposed of oegroes, it is our duty as
representing the law abiding olemeot
of our population to see that jostice is
done to that inferior race There is no
doubt that tbe negro rsc? is inferior
to ours io ioteiiigecce, ic civirzaioo,
io moral character There is no ?'.oubc
that we have deprived them practical?
ef poliiieai power, aod ii is best io:
them that it is so, but wo are ali the
more bcuod to treat them kindly, fairly
and jusrly They are, io fac?, our
wards, aod wo, as their guardian* mast
j see to it that they are oct ruade :be
j viciims of deceit aod fraud, imposition
j and oppressioo. The fact that, the negro
j is ignorant, poor aod depeodeat oo the
, white mao is no reason why he should
be made (be helpless victim of the
white mao's greed, deceit aud tyranny
We coast aot aiiow the negro's oeces
iity to be the hard hearted white mao's
opportunity The white mao's
barden is a heavy one, and thc white
mao of the Southern States has a larger
portion of it to bear than any other
white man We mus: endeavor to show
ourselves worthy of our responsibility,
and as grand jurors and officers of thc
court we masc see to is that in Ander
soo Couoty this prosperous, enterpris?
ing. Christ ian ooeamuoity, the negro
shall have justice done him. You.will
therefore spare no paioe to make a
thorough investigation of the stookade
6caodal. The oath which you took as
graod jurors reqaires you to present ali
thiogs truly as they come to your
knowledge, to the best of your under
standing, so help you God You have
sworn not ooly that you will notproseut
anyone for envy, hatred or malice, but
that you will leave no one unpreEeo'ed
for fear, favor, affeotion, reward or
hope of reward, aod I koow ihar, io
this regard you will do your duty. You
will briog Ibis shameful practice to the
light of day. Such disgraceful conduct
oannot stand daylight, hat like those
fungas growths that flourish only io
(?ark coroei9 it will perish when
exposed to the light of day. The editor
of The Datiy Mali deserves the thanks
of ali good people for the editorial
article whick drew public at-teotioc te i
this matter The air is filled with
reports and rumors of the most
startling character. One hears thai
there is a stookade io your county
without a siogie conviot in ir, yet
filled with men held there under these
so called contracts for labor, men who
are gaarded like convicte, worked like ?
convicts, punished like convicts and
sometimes shot as if they were felons
escaping from prison and the custody
of the law Representing the law
abiding, God fearing people of Anaer
son County, you will ascertaiu the
names of those so called landlords who
have broaght disgrace to your county
and put it to a buroiog shame. You
will in persco or by committee visit all
the stockades io your county and you
will report to the court rae names of
ali ?ho are thereto coofioed, the
offenses for which they are imprisoned,
and the term of their imprisonment
and the names of those who arc there
noe?oed nuder contract; or for aoj
causes You will do all you can thin
week, but as it is*manifestly impossible
to finish tbs investigation ibis week, ii
shall order a special session of the
court of general sessions to be held on
Thursday, the 7th day of March, ov.
which day you as graod jurors will
conreos as a grand jury aod make i
final presentment of this matter. You
have the power to send for persons and
papers and compel the attendance o;
witnesses and to examine th?m, and I
trust to yon aod ali law abiding people
io your enanty to aoite in an rffort to
root cut this shamefai practice- and to
remove this black blot from the good
name of Anderson County."
