The Revenue Difficulties.


Capt. w. e. Earle, in letter pub.
lished in the Greenville News of the
18th instant, undertakes to defond the
conduct of the Revenue officials, in
the killing of Ladd in this County.
Capt. Earle is the attorney for these
parties, and of course, is only in pos,
session of their side of tho case. AS q
lawyer, he will do everything he can
to clear them, and in his letter he
states very clearly the defense they
expect to mako. He says. "these
defendants expect to show that they
were in the discharge Of their duty rs
officers of tho law, serving lawful
warrant, and that the killing was done
in self defense"
In the kilograms sent off to the
Charleston News and Courier, and
to Collector Brayton, they represent
Ladd as being EARNED to the teeth"
standing in tho door and resisting
their enterance, and that he snapped
pistol at Kane as he entered tho
door. The evidence taken before
Trial Justice Taylor disproves these
statements entirely but as the parties
are under arrest, and the whole af
fair is to undergo judicial investiga~
tlon, we refrain from saying anything
more about it.
We must heartily concur, however,
in the latter part of Capt, Earle's let
ter, and trust that the proposition for
q general amnesty will meet with ia
vorable action in Washington. IF
those people who have violated the
revenue laws were pardoned it would
create in them o kindlier feeling to-
wards the Government, and they
would cease all violations and obey
and respect the laws in the future
Capt. Earle says:
"It would be we'll, in my humble
Judgment, both for the good order and
prosperity of the people, and would be
best for the revenue service, if all vio.
lations of revenue were forgiven up to
a recent date to the present, provided
the person is not hereafter guilty of 8
new offence. -
''I advised the Commissioners to this
course year ago, and the proposition
is now under consideration of the
Secretary of the Treasury upon re-.
cent letter to the President. It is 10
the interest of the whole community
that the law should be observed, and
the sentiment Of the people should be
against It's violation. Then violence
and lawlessness will be more readily
repressed on both sides. Then the
service of tho Government will be re-
garded honorable as it should be in
every branch. Then there will be
more good men willing to serve the
Government, and fewer bad ones will
have the op2oglnnity."

The article of Capt. W. E. Earle, in
defense of his clients against remarks.
which we made about tho murder of
Ladd, Of Pickens County, much to our
regret, appeared in our last issue with>
out comment; and more especially do
we regret it, because the article in
THE P1oKENs SENTINEL, whi CHI we
publish in this MOI ning's paper, was
in our possession, and hung upon the
hook, but by some oversight, we must
imagine, failed to appear in our paper,
as intended. Capt. Earle may save
all his regrets about what we write in
this paper, and especially about pres
Judging cases in the courts. We dis
tinctly stated in the article to which
he refers, that "wo will not, if we
know it, PREJUDICE the case Of any
person charged with crime, especially
crime involving the penalty of
death! We then made comments
upon the outrage, based on the tele-
gram sent to this city by the Sheriff
of Pickcns County. This is all we
did. When we have q statement from
an officer, who is specially entrusted
by virtue of his uflice, with the prescr.
vation of tho peace, we will certainly
rely upon it as truth, in preference to
4 kl,.a I
from his clients, who are charged with
the commission of the crime. We
publish, in another column, the war;
rant, under which it is claimed this
Revenue posse was authorized to ar
rest Mr.. Ladd. Whon the warrant
was placed in tho hands OF the posse,
who now seek protection under it, wo
know not. t.-Grcenvillc Daily Nows.

The Tidioute News of last week
has the following interesting item
"Our worthy Burgess elect, G. G.
Thompson, was collared on Wednesday
evening at the Odd Fellows Hall, the
occasion thereof being presentation
of magnificent Past Grand and Past
Patriarch's collar, combined, to Mr..
G. G. Thompson, by the members Of
Eden Lodge, 666, /. o. o. f, The
presentation was made by Mr.. Z. A.
Baldwin, in his original manner, and
was warmly responded to by the recip-
lent. Mr.. Thompson has long been
the efficient Secretary of the Hall AS
sociation and the members took this
plan to show their appreciation Of his
faithful services. The collar has been
pronounced (by those who have had
an opportunity to know to be the
richest and most elegant there is in
the State. A few ladies were present
and the presentation was very enjoy
able affair.""
Mr.. Jas. Ward, of jerks town
ship, who was in town last week, in
forms us that we'll is to be started at
McDonald's Mill, one mile from the
place known as Blacks Corners, in
about six weeks. The power is to be
furnished from the boiler and engine
in the mill, and thorough and eco
nomical test will be made. The par
ties who are to put down the well are
leasing quite an amount of land in The
vicinity.
Happening in Franklin on Friday
evening last, we had the good fortune
to hear the Rev. Joseph Cook lecture
1t would take too long to give des
cliptisn of the speaker and his lecture
but suffice it to say that he is by al
odds the finest lecturer to whom W,
have ever listened. We have hcarc
more eloquent men, but none who's
, talk appeared to have the "body," s.
to speak, that his had.
