EASTMAN NOTES.
Business Changes-General Regret
at Rev. Ansley's Departure.

Business Changes-General Regret
at Rev. Ansley's Departure.
EASTMAN, GA. Dec. 1.-The young
men OF Eastman have arranged pro
gramme for a masquerade ball at the
Uplands Hotel on Jan. next. Cards
orchestra of Columbus has been engaged
to furnish the music.
Cards are out for the marriage Of j. 5.
Shingleur, OF Dodge county, to Miss
Emma ;. Baldwin, of WhitesVille. n. G..
Mr.. Shingleur is engaged in the naval
stores business. Several other marriages
are expected to take place here in the
near future.
". w. AshDurn has sold the Ashburn
House to Mrs. w. n. Leiuch, who took
charge yesterday. j. d. Peacock, who
has been running the hotel, will 90 to
Hawkinsvlle, where he and &. B. Parker,
OF Dodge county, nave become Interested
in the business of the Industrial Manu-
featuring Company.
j. w. Lee has purchased from &. W.,
Ethridge his stock OF wines and groce-
ries. W. B. Rogers, agent, has sold his
mercantile business to J. L. Wall.
The Methodist sunday school will cele-
brate Christmas with a Christmas tree.
II" Baptist school will have either tree
or supper.
Inc Proceedings OF the South georgia
Conference, lately held at Cuthbert, re-
ported in the SAVANNAH NEWS and other
papers, all make the mistake OF referring
to Eastman as mission, when 1t is really
a station, just made Sd. The converting
OF Eastman into station IS due IN
large measure to the efforts of Rev. j. }.
AnsIey, who has been pastor during the
present year. Mr. Ansley has endeared
himself 10 the people and there is general
regret that he was not returned to this
work for another year. He has done
much good here and added many men,
bers to the church. His successor, how
ever, Rev. T. NJ. Christian. will receive a
hearty welcome, while the affections and
best wishes of the people follow Mr.. Ans
ley TO his new field Of labor.

NEGRO KNIGHTS,
South Carolina Farmers Not to be
Ruled by Their Hands.

Ruled by Ihclr Hands.
COLUMBIA, S. c., Dec. 17.-The efforts
of some of the organizers of the Knights
of Labor in this State to enroll colored
people in the order has caused much
bitter feeling against the order among the
farmers. Some of the State papers nre
denouncing the movement in the strong
est terms. w. j. Russell, State Organizer
of the Knights OF Labor, in answering
the newspaper comments, Is bitter. He
says: "In your ignorance you may
think that the mechanics and laborers
in the rural districts of South
Carolina are to be used as lazy,
Indifferent men in these districts choose
to dictate; that they are not freemen and
snail work for what pay you may choose
10 allow them" Some papers advise
farmers TO ''spot' ali white men like Rus
sell endavoring to organize negro knights
OF Labor and to drive them from the
neighborbood. These journals have ad-
vised that the Legislature should appro-
pirate money for the maintenance or
militia, as well equipped soldiers will be
needed If this organization goes on.
LEGISLATIVE ACTION.
This the Legislature has done, and to
further protect the farmers against the
organization OF the cOlOred people living
on their plantations the Senate has passed
by large majority, and the House viii
doubtless make 1t law, n bill providing
that sit shall be deemed conspiracy, and
shall be q misdemeanOr for any persons
united, organized, associated or banded
together, to interfere by threats, force, or
in any other way, with any contract be-
tween any employer and any employe,
whether such contract be verbal or in
writing, or TO permit any person for them
or IN their name, or on behalf of such
union, association, organization or
band, to interfere with employer or
empoye, whether the contract be verbal
or in writing, for wages or for any other
consideration, TO prevent the execution
OF such contract, ADD each and every one
convicted of this oflense shall be punished
by imprisonment for not less than elk
months, or fined not less than 5000, or be
both fined and imprisoned. Each Of such
contracts interfered with as above
described shall constitute separate and
distinct oflense here. The possibility OF
strike at the cotton picking time, when
the whole crop OF the State would be lost
( II not promptly gathered, was the princi-
pal argument used, together with the dec
laration that If strike occurred among
the negroes much more blood would be
spilled than last summer in Chicago and
st. Louis"

COLUMBIA, S. G.. Dec. 1.-The six
negroes implicated in the murder of the
boy, John l.. Goode, in York county,
were lodged III jail in this city last night.
Both the prisoners and the deputies were
very much exhausted when they arrived
here. They left Yorkyille oy private con-
yeyance on Tuesday evening for Gas
tonia, station on the Airline road,
twenty-four miles from Gorkville.
The road was rough and
they were constantly expecting the
lynchers to overtake them. The party
missed connection at Gastonia but took
the next train for Charlotte and missed
connection with the south-bOund train
over the Charleston, Columbia and Au-
gusta road. They came through last
night unmOlesred, but in fear OF an attack
at Rock Hill and Chester. The delay of
the party in reacninV there may have
thrown the lynchers off the trail.

AN OFFENSIVE PARTISAN WHO CLEAN
HIMSELF OF AN OFFENSIVE CHARGE.
Louisville, June 30-A sensation was
created here last night by a ramor that
Colonel r.. M. Kelly, until recently
United States pension agent at this
point, was short in his accounts to the
government. The rumor had been cur
rent several days, but last night the
Courier Journal received o dis
patch from Washington saying,
on the authority of Third Auditor Will
liams, that when Kelley was succeeded
by Gen Buell. here, February 18th, q
settlement of his accounts showed a
credit to the government of SOL, 900 in
the New York sub treasury. Enquiry
at the sub-treasury, however, revealed
the fact that only about six dollars
was there dne the government
from the pension Office here. Kelly
was notified and Gen. Williams says he
Immediately paid over the fifty one
thousand dollars, thus squaring his
accounts. Williams..wishen explaining,
said he thought Kelly had been de-
ceived and duped by those he trusted.
Kelly states simply that his accounts
have been exa mined and found to BIZ
correct and he yves the government
nothing. Y

For the Pacific ExtensI,

-
0Washington special: Since the visit
of Messrs. I. J. Evans, Samuel Haas and
George f. Wright, of Council Bluffs, on
Saturday, the members of the Iowa
delegation. which intended to vote
solidly against the bill to extend the
time of payment OF the Pacific railway
debt, have changed their minds. The
delegation here OF Saturday represent
ed the board of trade of Council Bluffs,
and they came with q memorial signed
by almost all the members of the state
Legislature who were i'll the sessions OF
the senate on the impeachment court.
The Legislature last winter passed reso-
~lutions instructing the Iowa delegation
to vote against any extension measure.
This last memorial practically absolYes
the delegation from carrying out the
wishes of that legislature. The delega-
ton told the members of congress that
the bill was not thoroughly understood,
end they came here, after getting the
memorial, in order that any member
could use his own judgment on the. sub.
ject. They do moi advocate the bill
itself, but simply came for the purpose
OF allowing the members to use their
own Judgment. ALI but Congressman
Murphy and Frederieks were here and
saw the delegation, and it is now
thought that a majority at least will
vote for the bill provided it is reached
on the calendsr.
