THE reports from the use Of Swift's Specific
i Is S. S. in the treatment of Cancer con-
tinue to be wonderful. There seems to be no
doubt that it is a positive specinc for Skin
Cancer or Epithelioma.
''FOr twenty years l suffered from a Cancer
on my neck. Patent Potash and Mercury
Mixtures fed instead of curing the Cancer. 1
lost the use of my arms and the upper part of
my body. My general health was broken
down, and my life was despaired of. S. S. S.
cured me sound and well. This new lease of
life it gave TO me cannot be measured by any
monetary value. 1 owe my life and the sup
port of my family to Swift's Specific"
w. r. Robson, Davisboro, Ga.
''Mr. Brooks, near Albany, was hopelessly
afflicted with Cancer. 1t had eaten through
his nose INTO his mouth and throat. The time
of his death was only a question of a very
short time. He prayed for death, his suffer
ing was SO great. S. S. S. has had wonder
full effect on him. His improvement is so
great that we all feel sure of his being per-
fectlY cured in time"

raised by English critics to tho now cruisers
is not that they have too little sail-spresd, but
too much.
Mr.. Isherwood's final objections are moro
conicctures too vague and general to demand
an answer, and their soundness may be
estimated from the utter worthlessness Of his
specific allegations. His position is clearly
stated in closing sentence Of his long COM
munication to the senate naval committee
about the new cruisers. lie says "only tho
best professional talent should be employed
on them, and tho designs should be kept
opon to the criticism Of oil who may feel an
interest in the subject" IL is needless to
suggest to whom Mr.. Isherwood refers when
ho speaks Of the "bost professional talcnt;"
but in view Of the doubt that any admins
ration would put itself Under the yoke Of
Mr.. 1sherwood's professional talent" ho
would at least secure the position OF irre-
sponsible critic as one Of those who "feel an
interest in tho subject" In other words, let
tho designs of tho advisory board bo submit
ted to the self-conBtituted oracle Of American
shipbuilding, who never built ship of war
in his life, who ignores all modern construct.
ors ard all the progress of modern science,
and let no vessels be built for the navy Of the
United States until he has given his fat of
approval.
If Mr.. Isherwood and Mr.. Wilson, the two
leading objectors to the new cruisers, had
themselves been controlling members of tho
advisory board, thereis little doubt that their
recommendations would have met with as
severe criticism as any which has been
brought against the Chicago and Atlanta.
They wero members of the first advisory
board, of which Admiral John Rodgers was
president, and with two others they stood
out to the end against the opinion of the
majority. Their opposition at that time
created q doubt in tho public mind which
delayed and nearly prevented any action by
congress. Their action now is wrecking tho
hopes of the country and of the service that
something will be done for the reconstruction
of the fleet.

TIE nANNILLE INQUIRY.
Continuation OF the Examination o
witnesses Before the Senate Commit

Continuation of the Examination OF
witnesses Before the Senate Commit
ter.
The senate sub comm ittee investigating
the Danville riots examined n number or
witnesses Saturday. Edward Lewis, col
orcd coalitionist, testified that Jesse Keen, q
democrat, told him tho colored people would
be shot down like dogs If they did not vote
with the democrats, as the white people Of
Danvile were determined to rule by ballot
or bullet.
Rev. S. A. Goodwin had been so much
alarmed by the reports of negro uprising that
he devoted himself to the unchristian work
of carrying pistol, but did not have occasion
TO use IL. l.. l.. Bass white democrat, who be-
lOnged to tho club organized to carry tho
election, viewed the riot from afar of, but
his vision was koon enough for him to discern
"niggers" firing pistols over their shoulders
as they ran. G. II. Norton, builder,
and contractor, was present at tho riot, and
fred three times into the crowd OF ileoing
Blacks did so to rescue white mon. Also
saw one colored man firing back at whites
ms he ran. II. II. Perrow and J. b. Stovall,
from near Danville, white coalitionists tes-
titled that the effect of the Danville circular
was to prevent colored voters from going to
tho polls ut all, and TO induce many white
readjustors to vote the democratic ticket.
Thomas j. Wilson, white coalitionist, Of Fin
castle, 195 miles from Danvillo, said tho
circular was sent to every white man In his
neighborhood and surrounding counties and
produced tho same result. jacob
f. Shaw, white rcadiuster, Of
Henrico, county, and W. s. Jones,
testified as to having been informed before
the riot occurred that signals had
been arranged 10 call out bodies
of armed white men by three
strokes on the bell of the Star tobacco factory
in Danville. J. c. Richards, o local his
torian," read full particulars of the riot in q
printed circular which he picked UP at a
railroad station In Bath county several hours
before the riot actually occurred. q. W.
Swain, white democrat of Danville, had heard
of no preconcerted movement on the part Of
the whites, but went "hceled," and happened
to be on hand when the row began. j. s. BrOwn.
| ing, white readuster of Richmond, was told
by Gen. Hill, editor Of tho Scottsville Courier

The Electric Light Exper,ment.

All preliminary arrangements and tests for
the first circuit of the Brush-Swan Electric
company have been completed, aud at about
8 o'clock tonight there will be lighted stimuli.
taucously 4,0O0-candle power lamps as fol-
lows: Twelve on the "tholus" at the summit
of the capitol dome, one in the rotunda, six
on mast on the highest tower of the Smith
sonian, and ten on the Washington monu-
ment. No electric lights have ever boon
placed in this country as high by more than
q hundred feet, it is said, as those on the
capitol and monument, and their effect will
be watched with considerable interest. The
Smithsonian lights are at about the height of
the towers which would be used for lighting
the city, and this mast, but for the shadow
cast by tho building, would be good sample
of such towers. The gas will bo extinguished
for considerable distance around each group
of lights. These lights will constantly itn-
prove for several nights. The circuit on which
the lamps are placed embraces nearly five
miles Of wiro, starting from the lighting
station on Second street, between and g,
and the whole 10 operated by single
dynamo.

What Mr.. Morrison Says.

MI. Morrison's attention was called yester-
day to the published statements that an
understanding had been reached by the dem
ecratic leaders in the house to indefinitely
postpone all consideration of tariff bill and
to bring the tariff question before tho dem
ocratic national convention in July next for
such action as the representatives of the party
then assembled should deem best adapted to
set themselves right before, the people Of the
country and to finally dispose Of the subject
by inserting plank in the democratic plat
form defining the position of the party upon
this issue. Mr.. Morrison says the statements
are wholly without foundations that the tariff
bill will be brought before the house at an
early day, in accordance with the agreement
reached at the recent caucus, and its consid-
Grafton proceeded with until it is finally dis
posed of by vote of tho house.

At tho CONGREGATIONAL Church.

A meeting of tho Temperance alliance OF
tho district was held at the Congregational
church last evening. Tho announcement
that Hon. Emory Storrs, of Chicago, would
deliver an address on tho temperance ques-
tion attracted large crowd who were much
disappointed when it was stated that owing
to severe indisposition Mr.. Storrs would not
be able to comply with his engagement.
Addresses relative to the work of the alli-
ance were made by Rev. j. L. Rankin, Messrs.
Starr, Moulton, Bradley, Gen. Riley and
others, and the pledge book was passed
around and many signatures were obtained.
1t is the purpose of the alliance to circulate
petitions which are to be presented to congres:
praying that such legislation may be had as
will permit tho question of local option in
the district to be submitted to q popular vote.
Several thousand signatures have already
been obtained in which citizens pledge them
selves to oppose the granting Of licenses by
every means in their power.

The Late sheriff OF Yazoo.

"They do not appear to be very fond Of you
down in Yazoo," said THE REPUBLICAN, re-
porter to Col A. I. Morgan, author Of
"Yazoo; or, On the Picket Line of Freedom" !"
who had just shown him the Vicksburg Her.
aid letter which is reproduced in another col
umn.
"Well, no; but that sort of warfare is pre-.
cisely what anticipated, and l am prepared
for it. They do not want the truth told
down there in Mississippi. 1 have just ar
ranged for the publication of the entire let.
ter, as an advertisement of my forthcoming
book. 1t will pass current as very unique
testimonial. Intelligent people who read 1t
will understand the animus that inspires the
bourbon press to attack me with malignant
abuse; abuse, however, from which l do not
shrink, and which 10 certain to recoil upon
those engaged in the warfare. l have notices
of kindlier nature however. My book will
be out not later than April Is. hope"
The late sheriff of Yazoo is unquestonably
q man of nerve and he appears to be abund,

IN an interview published in THE REPUB-
LIcAN this morning Delegate Caine, Of
Mormondom, arraigns the government of tho
United States as tyrannical because of its
efforts to eradicate the evil of polygamy in
Utah. He declares that his people will bo
ranked in history with the Pilgrims and
Huguenots-peopep prosecuted because oftheir
faith. To the Mormon problem Mr.. Caine
offers no solution which involves the
abolition of pOlygamy. That crime and
infraction of the law he admits, but excuses,
or rather evades it by pleading that tho
people who are trying to enforce the law are
bad people, actuated only by selfish party
motives, and not by love for pure morality,
As an expression of impudent defiance of ma
tional law and the congress of tho United
States the manifesto of the Mormon leader
for it is nothing else-is a remarkable contri-
button to current political history. The iron
hand of strong government is needed for the
suppression Of the evil of polygamous Nor
monism,

GREAT BRITAIN sent her troops to suakin
and in series of engagements in tho vicinity
of that place slaughtered several thousand
brave Arabs. The excuse for this action lay
in the relief of the Egyptian garrisons hold
ing out against El Mahdi in the soudan and
particularly of Gen. Gordon at Khsrtoum.
But because of the future tropical heat and
scarcity Of water England now concludes to
withdraw her troops without attempting tho
dangerous overland expedition to the Nile
The government will find it. very hard to
defend its course in this matter. Had Gen.
Stephenson's expedition resulted in the
safety Of the imperled Garrisons the world
would have stood ready to excuse the blood
shed that has occurred, but as it is the lives
of the valorous fanatics so uselessly sacrificed
will stand as reproach against England hard
to Withstand.

Fnth.rInnd Church sunday School.


The Fatherland Evening Sunday school
held special meeting last night, at which a
review Of the lessons Of the quarter from
January to March was had. The meeting
was conducted by Prof. Guss, the superin-
tendent, and was interesting throughout.
The services principally consisted in answer
ing questions relating to the lessons. The
questions had been written on blackboard
and treated Of each lesson in five parts,
namely: The subject. golden text, the
person or persons named. the time and place
Of occurrence and the truth taught. Besides
these several teachers were provided with
slips with quotations from the Bible on them,
and were allowed to comment upon them.
After the exercises of the scholars was
completed addresses were made by DIR.
Butler, Mr.. Reamy, and Mr.. Elias johnson,
an Indian of the tribe of the Tuscaroras, who
has been connected with the Christian church
some time. Mr.. Johnson related some of the
history of the tribe and its people, and when
through repeated tho Lords prayer in his

Under Mob Ru1e.

An ineffaceable blot has been put upon the
fair fame of Cincinnati. She has had three
days battle with an unorganized mob, and
has not yet been able to restore order,
although aided by a large force of state
troops. II is passing strange that city so
strong in all the forces Of civilization should
be so weak in the presence of domestic
insurrection. She maintains large police
force but when an emergency arose which
required the officers of the peace to face
death in the discharge of their duty they
were not equal to the occasion. The state of
Ohio is the third in the union in the strength
of its military establishment, but the gov.
ernor has not yet sent sufficient force to Gin.
cinnati to cope with the rioters
At this distance it is difficult to understand
either tho motive Of the mob or the remiss-
ness of the city and state authorities that
permitted it to get the mastery. There was
great indignation over the failure Of jury
to convict a man Of murder. who was no.
toriously guilty, and tho first outbreak was
directed against the Jail in which he was
confined. Tho sheriff and his deputies hur.
ricd the prisoner off to the penitentiary, and
after the rioters discovered that he was gone
there was apparently no oreason for continuing
the attack on the public buildings The mob
dispersed for the time being, but gathered
again in greatly increased numbers, fired the
court house, and inflicted loss upon the
whole community which will be felt for a
hundred years. The destruction of the puf-
lie records of great city is far-reaching
calamity.
The administration of justice in Cincinnati
is said to be feeble, corrupt, and uncertain
but the burning of the court house is a poor
remedy for an evil that ought to be corrected
by civil methods. The indignation which
has found vent in fire ana bloodshed ough
to have been directed against the corrup
officials, through whose connivance the un
scrupulous lawyer and professional "jurJ
hxer" are able to get in their work. Ther'
is evidently something wrong about the Gin
cinnati system of drawing and summoninl
jurors, but the villany that defeats justic,
cannot be cured by mob violence.
1t does not appear from the dispatches tina
tho mob is in pursuit oil any particular per
son, or has any well.defned object in Wow
unless it be to hang tho men charged will
murder who are in Jail awaiting trial. Th,
state is bound to defend these prisoners, ever
if Gatling guns have to be brought into re
QUESTION. There are times when life mus
be sacrificed to enforce the law. A violen
uprising of the people is generally provoked
by some exasperating grievance but as ia
as is disclosed by the dispatches, there wa
no excuse for this outbreak in the 6rst place
and its continuance can only be accounted 70
on the theory that the lawless and crimina
classes have got control and are seeking a
opportunity for plumber.
