Lancaster. South Carolina. A crowd of
mounted cOlored men. in which "a large
pistol buckled around a riders body" was
conspicuous. rode into town. and one of
them hit a white democrat on the head
with stick or stone" These black men
were so bloody minded that four of them
had to be shot down and many wounded
before order could be restored. Except
the one unfortunate white man hit on the
head with stick or stone," no white
man Is reported hurt. Ever since the col
ored man has had the ballot in his hand
he has been notorious for the savage
ferocity of his electioneering methods.
He has sought out the unsuspecting,
law-abiding white citizens OF his
neighborhood, and with rifle and re-
volver menaced their lives. But his aim

izing community with noisy threats. the
white mans bullet lays him low. A
white head may be bruised with "a stick
or stone." but the dead turn their black
faces to heaven. and the hearts that mourn
for husbands beat under black skins. In
slavery days it was the lash or handy stick
Of cord-wood. but now only the revolver
or the rifle can keep in subsection the muir
derous propensities of the African race.
While the negro persists in getting him
self killed it must be owned that he is a
bad citizen and an undesirable neighbor.
He doesn't seem to understand that he is
living under republican form of govern
ment, guaranteed to him by the constitu-
ton Of his country.
