: The wholesale assassin OF Santiago
de Cuba, known to lame rs Butcher
Burrisl, has had the shameless sffront-
cry 70 attempt a defense In the Reaae
les Deah MoHdss, Of his massacre OF
the Nlrginlus prisoners. But, says IN
exchange, all the water In the world
cannot wash from his hand, the stains
OF blood In which he dsbbled; nor can
he In a thousand years cleanse his
reputation Of this particular afro
city. This butcher Of men claims that
he acted under military instructions ;
and that It was not for him to discuss
justice or the claims Of humanity In
such 4 case. II foreigners do not like
the laws Of Spain, says this neral
monstroslty, they should keep or
Spanish soil, and no attention should
be paid to protests In extreme cases
against puni.hment for this lnfrac,ion
OF these laws. Public oploion has
already declared that oven though the
Virginius prisoners were guilty OF the
worst crimes charged against them,
they were mercllsssly murdered.
There Was no need OF haste or bru-
tality In their execution. Every In.
s,lnct Of humanity should have re-
strained this officer from butehery.
But there was nc restraint. The man
acted then with a haste that was
iendish. Ito glories in that &C: to-
day. aud deiics the opinion Of the
world. Nothing so brszen ever before
went upon the pages Of history. This
very crime whose enormlty thrilled
the world with horror Is made q deed
Of glory BY this hero Of Spain.

1t will be necessary to allude to

The independent movement in South Caro-
lima seems to be formidable one. 1t is a
bona fide republican movement, although it
must depend for its support almost entirely
upon the democrats of the state. The can
didate for governor is native of South Caro-
lima, who has attained distinction as a
lawyer. He failed to take part In the re-
bellion on account, it is alleged, of ill-health,
but, probably, because his sympathies were
with the Union. Martin r. Delaney, the
candidate for lieutenant governor, is much

of free woman by slave father, and was
born in Virginia in 1912. His father some
time after bis marriage purchased his free
dom and removed to Chambersburg, Pa.

which he afterwards pursued at intervals,
