WASHINGTON MAY 24-The President to-day
appointed Abial Lathrop district attorney for
South Carolina TO succeed Leroy +. NOunIans.
This act OF the President caused much sorrow
and disappointment in the Brayton and Mel.
ton camps. Each was confident after con-
Miller few days ago that the appointment
would drop into his indivinal grasp; hence
their surprise must be very great. At the
White House IL is said that neither Mr.. Bray
ton nor Judge Melton created very favor
able impression on the appointing power,
may have had by confidng to n friend OF the
Administration the fact that he had not prac-
ticed law for number Of years. In makin
this selection the President ignored the con-
tending South Carolina factions and picked
out a comparatively dark horse.
that but few Of his friends were aware that he
WAS In the race. He had the endorsement of
Judge Simonton and several others Judges in
the State, and even his enemies admit that
he II good lawyer and a man against whom
nothing personal can be charged. The South
knocked out when they saw the official an
nouncement, and they are like strangers in
foreigo land: they do not know which way
10 turn or what course to pursne. They
claim that MIR. Lathrop is not party leader
by any means. and while he is regarded as a
been more with the Democrats than with the
Republicans. Whether the regulars will
hold an indignation meeting and denounce
the President is question for further con-
sideration. They are too full for utterance.

Advertising is not the road to success, but
success itself-Richardson.
Advertise your business, owe all my suc-'

How can one man know what you want.

sell unless you advertise it-Murat Hal

The advertisements which appear in pub

If YOU advertise 1t gives you reputation

Elsewhere we give a full and detailed ac-
count Of the Lyon-Mabry homicide. Our peo-
pie were greatly shocked. Extreme sorrow
and grief have filled many hearts, while q
deep sense Of sadness and great regret per-
vades every heart. The slayer and the slain
were related by blood or marriage to ma
jority Of our people, and each possessed the
respect and good will of all. During our
long sojourn among this people we do not
recollect OF any event which has cast so great,
q gloom over the town.
If the law had been properly enforced in
the past this most sad affair might not have
occurred. Where the law is enforced, men
restrain their passions, and seldom under
take to redress their own wrongs.
The prisoner claims to have good defense
which defense will not be known until the

Ne,Cs and Courier.

While on the way to his office on Saturday
morning, D. l.. Mabry, a talented young
member of the Abbeville Bar, was waylald
by his wife's step father, John 7, Lyons and
brutally slain. The circumstances of the
homicide are not fully known, but 1t appears
to have been deliberate, cold-blooded muir
der "
the crime show that Mabry had left his young
wife and two little children, and was presum-
ably going down town to his law office; that
he had reached the public street near the Acad-
emy building, when he was accosted by Lyon,
who was armed with a double-barreled shot
gun, and WOO asked him if he were ready to
fight: that Mabry answered, III You shoot
''you are n coward that Lyon then advanc-
ed step and fired; that Mabry falling. to the
earth, exclaimed, "Don't shoot again. am
dead !" that Lyon advanced again, emptied
the second barrel of his gun into the body OF
bis helpless and prostrate victim went home,
told his wife OF the shooting, and was flually
arrested and lodged in Jail. 1t Is said that Ly.
on claims that Mubry made movement as II
to draw his pistol, Lyons intention being, OF
course, to establish plea OF self:defence;
1t is furthermore stated that "Mabry's pistol
was found in his pocket after his "death."
Mabry was 2G years old, and gave promise OF
q brilliant career mt the Bar and Of long and
useful life. Lyon is G2 years of age, and In
the course of nature cannot live much longer.
What Will the law do with him? How VIII
an Abbevile jury regard his case? Will
sympathy" for the living make them deaf TO
the demands OF justice? Ana II Lyon lS sui
fered TO escape just punishment for his bloody
deed, what right has the public to expect that
there will not be another and another homi
eide? OF what value is human life in South
Carolina, If 1t has come TO pass that, man
can arm himself with a shotgun and settle
his domestic differences by shooting down his
adversary upon public street and within the
shadow of school-hOuse where the Gospel OF
the Golden Rule Is taught day after day ?
Are we Christians, or are we savages? Has 1t
come to this that every man Is n law unto
himself. and that the citizen who is quickest
on the trigger is after all superior TO the
Courts and the scaffold? Is 1t any wonder
that pcaceably disposed people warn immi-
grants away from our shores, and that II Is
Becoming as safe TO cast o tent in Oklahoma
as it is to build a house and possess Il home in
South Carolina?
We would not say word to prejudice
Lyons case-he should have fair and Inn
partial trial: but If the essential facts in the
killing of Mabry are as they have been relat-
ed in the newspapers we have no hesitancy in
saying that he Is guilty OF murder and should
be hanged. The time has come when the law
must assert ITSELF If the State will not pro-
tect the lives of It's citizens, let the juries be
discharged and the Court Houses be closed,
and let every man be put upon his guard.
We have had bloodshed enough, and in our
pity for the living we must not forget the
dead.

May Newspapers Discuss Crime :?

The comments Of the Ne,cs and Courier
upon the recent homicide in Abbeville, have
been the occasion of many very wise sugges'
tions as to the injustice of newspaper COM
ments.
Now, we are ready to admit that newspa'
pers, like individuals, may 60 beyond tho
bounds of propriety, and many err. But in
the main the newspapers are honest. They
cannot afford to be otherwise than right ~
long as they desire to maintain their infiu-
ence for good. Is it not true that in every
land where freedom of speech is guaranteed.
that the press is the defender OF the peoples
rights Is 1t not true that the press in every
land OF freedom is the upholder of law and
order?
Because of the anxiety which our people
have manifested to see what the Ne,rs ana
Courier said we copy the editorial from that
paper. For the same reason we also copy all
editorial from the Greenrile News
