Charles Wiliams, a disreputable negro,
shot and instantly killed street-car driver,
named Polk Mitchell. at o'clock this
afternoon. An hour before Williams had
been elected from the car for entering it in
drum ken msnnar, smoking in the pres
ence of ladies. The murder was the most
brutal and unprovoked that had ever
occurred in the city. Lynching is feared.
A mob of determined men, mostly COM
posed OF factory laboreIs snd railroad men,
armed with shot-guns and all other kinds
of firearms, marched, about IL o'clock, to
the county Jail, follosed by several hun
dred people, and at once began demanding
sdmittance to the Jail. 1t soon appeared
that nothing would deter them, and shoot

sheriff would certainly result in the kill

the mob, and the front door of the all was

hard time effecting an entrance. For an

At midnight the rnport of a pistol

had not, they would disperse.

ED. COMET II suppose you are aware
OF the fact, that ours, is a progressive
State. The 44th general assembly
has discovered, that the State Govern
nent can be run without money, and
that the appropriation Of money for
any purpose whatever, is a relic of the
dark ages. The assembly viewed the
situation as ii is, and seeing that the
deaf the blind and the insane are all
provided with comfortable quarters,
any that the public school system is
established throughout the State, and
that the courts arc in good running
order, and that the State officials gen
orally have comfortable quarters, con-
cluded to try an experiment so theas-
sembly adjourned, sine die, without
appropriating Il dollar for any Of these
purposes. If this experiment proves
a success, the country will be under
everlasting obligations, to dozen
Republican senators who immortaliz-
ed themselves by deserving their seats
Just at the time when the bill provid-
ing for the expenses Of the State for
two years. was on its final reading in
theSenate. They were sworn tosupport
the constitution, and legislate for the
general good, therefore, we must con
clude that the public welfare requires
that the state is ia better condition
without, a law to provide revenue, or
n law to appropriate the same, than
under the old threadbare system Of
our fathers.
How times have changed! But we
should not wonder, when we see the
changes going on every where. This
is not more wonderful, than the dis
covery Of the electric light or the
power OF steam, or the telegraph, or
the more recent invention, the telo-
phone! But TO be serious, that mex
cusable, and nonsensical. bolt. of radi-
cal Senators, is SO damaging to all
the material interests of the state, that
language expressive OF the indigna-
tion of our outraged people, towards
the rebellious Senators, has never vet
been discovered. | once heard man
say, he never swore, because, when he
cot mad enough to swear, that "cuss-
ing, could not do justice TO tho sub
iect," and that expresses the senta-
ment Of the people on THE snject.
They feel that they have been in.
suited, that they have been trifled
with, for the sake Of little cheap no
toriety, by their chosen representa-
tives.
Instead Of holding up the hands oI
the Governor, these have seen fit tc
heap upon him the impossibility, ol
carrying ON the government without
money. 4 PLuRIBus.
