LET us be just in all things; that is
our motto, and should be remembered
in connection with what we published
relative to the Laws murder. The fol-
lowing special has been received:
FELICIANA, La, May 25.
F. /. Nichols, Governor:
Your telegram of this date in regard
to the murder of Laws has just been
received. Laws was killed on Satur-
day, May 10, in the town of Jackson,
at O'Clock, by one man, not band of
men. Our coroner has made full in
vestigation, supplied by the assassin in
jail, 1t is believed a family feud,
growing out of a diverse suit now
pending between Laws and his wife,
caused his death.
