About 5 O'Clock Tuesday, Nov. 21st, Thos.
H. Thornton, Of the firm of WE. Thornton
+ Son's Banking House, Of this city, walked
into the clothing store Of Max Keeman, and
deliberately shot Lieut.. Geo. Tackett, who
was reading newspaper ut the time.
Tackett staggered up, when Thornton shot
him again, the ball taking effect In the shoul-
der. Tackett then run Into the street, and
Thornton pursued, shooting him again in the
the ground, when fourth shot was fired
then Thornton walked up to the dying man,
and STOPPING, shot him through the head,
then Deliberately walked to his oiflce, mount
ed horse in the rear of bis Office, and led
through the back street north, out of town,
f,nce when, although seen, nothing has been
heard from him.
Tackeit Was taken to the house of his
mother, nnd there, after few hours Of agony,
J Thornton is about thirty years Of age.
Tackett was about twenty three. No words
were spoken by either Of them.
A large number Of persons saw the last part
of the horrible affair, and several saw the first
shot fired, so We are informed, but no effort
was made to interfere ar arrest Thornton. a
reward has been offered for his apprehension.
The Sullivan Union Banner give the follow
ing as reason for the foul deed:
It appears that an old gfudge had existed
between Thornton md Tackett for near two
years, but It Was, however, partly settled BY
Tackett agreeing to leave the place and not
tTo months since, ,1ackett returned TO Shelby
Vile and expressed desire to 60 Into busi-
ness In that place. Thornton heard what WAS
roInc on, and on Tuesday found him In a
store, reading newspaper, and the 6ceae de-
sc1ihed above followed.

Editors Chicago Tribune:
You are calling attention TO the exorhitant
rates OF railroad fcigbts, East and West, and
hope you will keep mp the fire until the
community is thoroughly aroused on the
subject, and shall demand material rcdue-
tion in a voice too loud to be disregarded by
mouopolists and stock gamblers, for It Is
fact, TINT the productive classes In the West
arc being shockingly robbed Of the fruits of
their Industry. But there Is ono class Of
suckers or barnnclcs who increase the cost Of
trelghts, which you seem to have overlooked.
I refer to the "fast freight llnes," 80 called,
but more properly deno1ninnted "htgh
freight Iincs.'' There is no possible
use or necessity for these extra
freight lines. The only thing they do II, to
keep back regular freight md charge extra
for such portions as they allow to come along
with ont detention. Do your readers know
how these things are managed 2 or how the
'.fast freight" agents manage to obtain so
much influence with the railroad companies
that they can push forward one lot Of freight
that stands the "black mai!ing," and keep
back On the same road other lots Of fright
whose owne1s have not CREASED the palms Of
