THE MURDEROUS PISTOL AGAINA
killing of the Negro, Mose Tuckeil
by William S. Green, Former Vol
Coroner of Richland County. \h
A human being was shot to death Lj
n a store in the business heart of ^
Columbia at half-past 10 o'clock L
Friday morning. So far as the I
widence presented at . the inquest jj
indicates, the killing was without!
the sluuiow of justification, a wan- (|
ton slaughtiMLthat would have U'cn s
-hocking to me humane sense of a t
civilized community had tin; vie- , |
tim of the deadly shot l>een a dog. !c
Where does the responsibility lie,
for the ruthless killing of the negro,
Mose Tucker, by William S. Green, ; s
former coroner of Richland county? !t
It lies immediately, of course, in ,
the disregard of the laws of God (
1 . . .. .1 A 1. . .1 '
turn mail on me pail 01 rue Mayer, ig
But primarily tin* resjionsibility fur {.
that bloody grave rests at the door&i r
of the peace officers of this city and \
county who have failed to make 1
this man resjieet the law in '
cases, and at the doors of those U
legislators who year after year permit
the continuance of loopholes :
through which influential or favored
criminals may escape. And behind
the failures to perform their full
duty is a dormant public sentiment,
unworthy of a law-abiding people.
The law should provide that
whenever there is a violent breach
of the peace, in which a life is
threatened or deadly violence attempted,
there shall he rigorous
prosecution. Whether or not the
assaulted person is willing to "let
the case drop," the case should be
followed up by officers of the law,
from magistrate to solicitor. The I
offense is not alone against the j>er-'
son assaulted, it is against the stale, I
it is against society. And every
abandonment of a prosecution gives
encouragement to lawlessness and
development desperIf
a man is killed his nearest of
kin can not "drop the case"
against the slayer. Why, then, if
I the attempt to kill is unsuccessful j
should the state permit the intend-1
? ? 1 victim to "(Imp the ease" or ho
brought oft"? Had thoro been administered
in the Columbia ami
! Hichland courts for tno last fifteen
years the fearless, impartial justice j
that was known in this city in the
years when John T. Ithett was
mayor none would have grown up
regardless of law, or feeling free,
even if his conscience permitted, to
| *2\JtAA ^ " -v ?
j of reproof.
W hen Mose Tucker was killgd
| the man who slew him wjis on his
way from the police court, where
he had heen summoned for attempting
to cut to death a white j
man on the previous evening. He!
went to court, armed with at least
a pistol; hut found the charge had '
heen "withdrawn." Had its withdrawal
not heen permitted this i
community would have proUihly
escaped the shock and digracc of
that killing; had the law heen enforced
in previous years it would
have made itself respected or feared,
and the knife would not have heen
used on Thursday night.
No man-made decree can force
men to do right through fear of
their consciences, nor make them
love the law tor the sake of society,
nor inculcate such respect for themselves
and their families that will
guard against disgrace. Man-made j
laws cannot do these things, hut
those that disregard all else that j
appeals to the higher senses are i
reached hy fear and man-made
laws, enforced, protect society from
those acainst whom .o- .......
needs protection. Only through *
fear of punUhmcnt can society he
protected from tint coward that '
strikes down without warning a de- !|
fenseless heing, or from him on \
whose soul the stain of human t
iliMid rests lightly. I'uerefore, so- '
iety should appeal loudly and (
nsistently upon the law and denand
its enforcement in every t v
nstanee. Those that condone the
lorrihle crime of murder because *'
lie victim lowly and friendless

i.arvest will he a withering curse.? ;J

peef'l was practical and dealt with

civet hy the audience.
.Mr. R. J. Wingard, University =
if S?uth Carolina, was awarded | ?
cold place. He is a member of
he dass of '< )7, and made a very
ine speech. His subject was, "A
'ivie Kennaissance," and in the
ubject matter, his speech was most
xcellent. It was a masterly treat-;
ilent of a good subject. Mr. i
Vingard has carried off many
aedals in his own college, and is
active worker in the V. M. C. A. I
Julias always taken considerable
merest ill his society work and is
tyguidcd ns one of the best orators'

Mr. C. V. Stansell, of Furnian,
cane in for third place in the con-j
test. He is a native of Greenville
county. He will graduate from
tint institution in June. He lias
attained distinction as a writer
ratier than a speaker, but his
speich at Greenwood showed that
he .ad great possibilities in that
liin. His subject was, "Our Ultima*'
Character." He showed conclusively
that our character is not
yet ; finished product. The proc*>is/>f
its development was traced.

X'G other speeches were of si :
hig) order. Indeed, the judges'
scored to lx' sit si loss to know just

audence felt the ssinie wsiy. Howeve,
the general verdict of the
audence will coincide with the decision
rendered by the judges.

In all diseases of digestion and nutri

proven itself of great value. It is relied

worst troubles of indigestion and make a

That Mi-o-na will cure the worst forms
of stomach t rouble, cancer excepted, and
give (piiek relief in indigestion i- proven
by the guarantee the Palmetto Drug Co.
gives with every oil-cent hox to refund
the money unless Mi-o-na cures. A guar,
