Infamed by the Bnch-afahaffy Gang, a
Negro Assaults Charlie Dougherty.
Yesterday afternoon, after o'clock. a
colored man was waiting for Tax Collee-
tor Dougherty at his office. There was
no one in the tax office but Charley
Dougherty, the collectors son. When
Charley informed him that the time had
arrived to close the Office the darkey said
that he was going TO stay until he paid
his taxes. This, Charley informed him, he
could not do Then they had some words
about the matter, young Dougherty all
the time standing in the gate that leads
into the railed-off portion of the Office
Finally the negro struck Charley with a
knife or some other instrument, which cut
h m over the eye and upon the right cheek.
Charley sprang for the revolver, which is
always on his fathers desk. and the
colored man ran rapidly out Of the office
and down stairs. The man Is not known
as he had not given his name and
young Dougherty did not recognize him.
Thus, the way that the Higgins
Mahaffy gang is at work among the ne
groes Of this city has begun to bear
its legitimate fruit The negro is an
animal. which, If he is allowed TO pursue
the even tenor Of his way, is not very
hard to get along with. and is really not
capable Of a great deal OF harm outside
OF the depredations that his weakness
for chicken lead him into.
But let some white man work upon
him and let him get the idea from some
man, in whom he believes, that he is be-
ing wronged and there is no knowing
where he will stop.
