n men than yourselves.

One thing in the present condition
of the South has not failed TO attract
attention in the North. Six years
ago there was a constant howl in
that region for the withdrawal Of the
Federal troops, who, it was alleged,
interfered in the elections in that re-
gion. Now, it is well known that in
South Carolina, Mississippi and Lou
isiana the white troops, State militia
and rifle clubs, appeared at every
election poll, on the 5th of November,
and overawed the voters, driving
back all who dared to appear to vote
in opposition to the Southern idea Of
hate to the North and contempt Of
the Federal Government, and allow
ing only those to vote who were in
accord with this sentiment. In view
of the military interference with the
civil rights of the citizen, what have

An Importaus Decision by h Su'
preme Court

PITTsBURG, November l9.-The
Supreme Court to-day delivered q
decision of great interest to hotel
keepers and travelling men,
The case was that of John c. Por-
terield, Of Emlenton, VS.. the proprie-
tors of the Central Hotel, Of this city
During the night Porter6eld had bis
watch, pocketbook and jewelry stolen
from his room. He sued the hotel
proprietors and recovered the value
of the property.
The defence claimed they were not
responsible because the defendant
was drunk and did not know what
property be lad nor whether he bad
locked his door, aud that the articles
"a diamond pin, etc.-were not rea.
sonable and proper for plaintiff to
have about his person in the hotel
The Court said it adhered to the OPP
inion Of the late Judge Williams, as
to the extent and character of lisbili-
ty of innkeeoers for the goods of their
guests.
An innkeeper is bound to pay fol
goods stolen in bis house from guests
unless stolen by a servant or compan.
ion of the guest. 1t is his duty tc
provide homes. servants and to exer
else an exac; vigilance over all per
sons coming into bis house as guest:
or otherwise.
The Judgment Of the lower Cour'
is affirmed.

ONCE more we ask for the proof
that the Republican candidates at the

about it? Never mind about what
you think, or guess, Or believe, pro-
duce the facts or confess you lied.
The Republican party of the county
challenges you TO the proof.

plain, and we want to have done

method of attacking men while can.

We publish in this issue tie pros
pectus of the NeW York Tribune,
and invite attention to its very at
.raclive premiums. This great jour
nal performed most effective political
service during the late canvass, par
ticularly in dragging TO light the
cipher dispatches, proving the fraud
ulent attempt to buy the Presidency
for Tilden in 1876, aud thereby crush
ing the assailants of the present Ma
tionsl Administration.
The effects of this work will be
felt in our politics for years to come

THERE is a proposition now pend
ing in the Georgia Legislature to grant
to exc onfederates, who have been
disabled by wounds or loss of Limbs
exemption from taxation under State
and county levies. There is nothing
to prevent a STATE pensioning its citi'
zens. But there is q political signif'
canoe about this movement that can,
not fail to attract attention. 1t shows
what the country might expect if the
"solid South" should have the con.
troll of the national legislature, viz
the pensioning of ex-C onfederates by
the general government.

SIMON CAMERON is an mistaken
and demonstrstive third term advo-
cate. According to a Washington
correspondent of The Philadelphia
Press, be has no doubt whatever OF
Grants denomination and triumphant
election His reasons are that Grant
has the confidence of the country on
tie money question, and that the
people will turn to him as the strong
est man to protect the country from
the designs of q solid South. He ex-
poets to see the campaign of 1880 the
liveliest one since that of Jackson,
nearly a half century ago, because
everybody will be in earnest, and
Grant will be sem into Office with the
vote Of every northern State. As for
the outlook 10 Pennsylvania, Mr..
Cameron thinks the Democrats have

Of the State again for many years to

Republican Protests Against Fraud
Special Dispatch to the Telegraph.

Special Dispatch TO the Telegraph.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 2e.-The pre-
test Of the Republican candidates in
Sumpter county, Sonth Carolina,
which has been presented to the
Board of Canvassers asking a recount
of the vote OF certain precincts named
by them, presents q faithful picture
of the frauds and intimidations which
contributed to a solid Democratic
delegation from that State. The clos.
ing article in the protest recapitulates
the situation in these words:
Because the whole election was
so tainted and vitiated by a general
system of fraud, intimidation and vio-
lence that it is impossible that j,
should give a free, full and fair ex-
preston of the will Of the people
1t was stated to-day that present ad.
vices indicate that although justice
and right would require a recount Of
the votes named, yet there was little
or no hope that the protest would re-
ceive any notice whatever, unless
some legal action was taken to CON-
pei the same through the United
States courts.

States we have only held u own,
but in almost every State, with the

Five Men 70 se Hanged.

Governor Hartranft yesterday is
sued warrants for the execution of
Eve murderers. Four of them be-
longed to the infamous Mollie Ma
CURES, among them Jack Kehoe. All
the culprits are to be hanged on the
18th of December.
The crime for which Kehoe is to
hang was committed in 1862 and the
victim was Z. S. w. Langdon, a tick
ct boss employed at Honeybrook col
liery. Langdon had locked Q num-
Der of men, and for it Kehoe threat
ened to take his life. On the ven
ing of the day on which a Sunday
school celebration was held Lang
don was found on the public road
terribly beaten, and in a few days he
died of the injuries received. For IL
years the murderers went uDpunish-
ed, but evidence was obtained
through the first Mollie Mcguire
murder trials leading to the arrest OF
Kehoe and two of his accomplices,
Dougerty and 0'Neill. Kehoe hav-
ing threatened to have Laagdon kill
ed, and having been seen striking
him, was convicted Of murder in the
fret degree, and his contederates got
off with hine years sentence in the
penitentiary. Kehoe was connected
with at least half q dozen other muir.
ders committed in the coal regions.
Martin Birgin, who is 10 be hang
ed on the same gallows with kehoe,
shot Patrick IL. Bards at Tuscarora,
Schuylkill county, in 1870. Burns
was murdered at the insugaEion of
John Kane, who employed James
Mcdonnell, also TO be hanged on the
18th of December for the murder OF
George K. Smith ia 1868, to put
Burns out of the way in order to
prevent him from exposing a theft OF
coal by Kane. Mcdonnell. induced
Birgin, who was arrested in Canada
last March, to do the shooting. Burns
was shot while going to work.
Charles Sharpe and james Nc
Donuell, both of whom will be hang
ed at Mauch Chunk on the 18th OF
next month, murdered George X.
Smith, a coal operator at Audenried
on the night of November 5, 1868.

A Specimen of Southern Love OF Jus.
tfce-

A special dispatch from Greenville,
S. c., says:
Peter c. Sudduth, who killed Dep
uty Sheriff LOFTS, in August last,
while the latter was trying to arrest
bis SOD, was tried on Friday last, N
the Court Of General Sessions, on
the charge of murder.
Six witnesses swore that the az
cured did the killing; others testified
to the brutal remarks made by Sud
duth concering the body of the MUIR
dered sheriff, which was left 10 front
of Sadduth's house for over twelve
hours.
Yet, iu the face Of all this, q jury
of twelve intelligent ~ citizens ger
dered a verdict of not guilty, to tie
surprise Of every justice-loving per
son.
The defense rested mainly upon the
fact that the officers, the sheriff aud
posse, returned Suddoth's FIRE at the
time LOFTS was struck.

on a charge of perjury, and have

General Key has been compelled to
discontinue the Office.
The same game is being pcrsued
in South Carolina, in cases where ar.
rests have been made for bull-dozing,
shotgun intimidations and ballot box
stufing at the late election. The
State authorities promptly arrest
every witness for perjury incareerate

solently ask, "What are Fon going to
