CLEVELAND AND DANA.

Mr.. G. A. Dana, the editor OF the
New York Sun, and ex-President
Cleveland have been saying very hard
things of each other. The Sun has lost
no opportunity to abuse Mr.. Cleveland
and to drag him unfavorably before the
public. We have always admired that
quality in Mr.. Cleveland which en-
abled him on former occasions to hold
his tongue and pay no attention TO
those who attempted to injure him by
personal abuse, and we are sorry that
he should have broken the record on
this occasion. Mr.. Cleveland is now
a private citizen and should be treated
as such. The attacks of tie Sun, how
ever, can not injure Mr.. Cleveland.
They only help to keep him before the
public and instead of injuring him will
help him and raise him in the estlma-
ton of the people of the country.

COWHIDING IN COLLETON.
4 Very Unpleasant AffAir-Cowhided
Under Arrest.

Especial to the Charleston NorId.J
CoTTAGEvILLE, Colleton Co., April
222.-Intense excitement prevailed III
this village to-day.
Four dayssince J. D. Risher, a young
man of high standing, Was cowhided III
his field near here by J. W. Lemacks,
ST., Andrew Lemacks, his son, and
Fraser Roger. They held a revolver to
his temple during the cowhiding.
Risher was charged with slandering
Minnie Lenlacks, but denies it. The
sympathy of the community is with
Risher.
To-day the case came before Trial
Justice II. w. Ackerman for aprelinl-
mary hearing. The parties were bound
over to the court of sessions. They have
failed to give bond, and officials at this
writing are about to start to Walter
boro with the prisoners.
Forty Of Risher's friends are armed
waiting for the prisoners to start to
Walterboro. They avow their intention
Of giving them an unmerciful coWhld-
ing en- route.
Ifsuch an attempt is made, and there
is little doubt it will be, there will be
desperate conflict, and perhaps seversl
lives lost.
Both sides stand well. The COM
munity is disrupted greatly over the
event but is more apprehensive of the
outcome during the next few hours.

+ Special to News and Courier.

SpGCldl W -NchS dltl NOulISI.
WINSsEORo, April 2l.-Major Wood
ward declines TO meet Tillman at
Ridgeway as will be seen by a letter
which will be published in the News
and Herald tomorrow, as follows:
Mr.. r. a. Means, Chairman of COM
mittee Of Arrangements-Dear Sir: In
accepting your invitation to be pres
ent and participate in the meeting of
the sd of May, organized by the Till
NANTES of Ridgeway in the interest
OF Mr.. Tillman's personal candidacy,
| certainly had no idea that the ALI
ances of the county were to be lugged
in as part of the machinery for his ele-
walton. Your letter of the 18th, quoted
below, shows too plainly the hand
which it is proposed to play.
"As this meeting will not be in
anywise partisan affair, I am hap
py to be able to say it has seemed
to me we'll to have the three Alliances
of this neighborhood to appoint 4 COM
mittee of six each upon reception or
arrangement, or with view of the Alli-
ances taking position that will show
for itself.'
Our constitution prohibits our going
into politics, and when l Joined the
Order took an oath to keep inside the
rules, which shall certainly try to do
as long as I am member. In addi-
ton to this, Col. Stackhouse, the head
of our Order in this State in recent
elaborate, statesman-like article on the
very subject, and in reply to interro-
gatOries made with avieW to drawing
him out, says distinctly, unequivocally,
Enthusiastically, that we must steer clear
of politics, and if he had said nothing
all the common sense in the world
would teach US this. I have known
Col. Stackhouse for over quarter of
century. He is i clear-headed, Chris
tian patriot, and was grand soldier in
| that grandest of armies which the in
comparable Lee commanded, and you
will pardon me, therefore, for saying,
not extensively, that | prefer to march
with his column than under your
leadership.
The fact that you are the secretary OF
the County Alliance and would,
therefore, be the channel through
which such orders would be dessemi-
mated, only magnities the outrage
which has been perpetrated upon our
cons ervative Order and makes this
protest upon my part the more solemn.
And, now, sir, this cancels my agree
| ment. l can take no part in any such
meeting, for I don't intend to be made
tool of by any one, either at Ridge
way or elsewhere, who desires to ride
into office either upon the shoulders OF
Capt. Tillman or or the back OF the
Alliance. If 1 am present at all it
will be only as a spectator. Very re-
spectfully yours.

The Abbeville Medium two weeks
ago in writing up the Easter services in
the various churches in that town on
Easter Sunday went into a minute
description of the dresses, ornaments,
etc., of the ladies who attended the
different churches. 1t read very much
like the descriptions usual, written
about State balls. Not only this, the
dresses of the ladies is considered the
most prominent feature of the whole
solemn Faster service. The Medium
says: But the most attractive feature
of the day was the heavenly beauty Of
our devout and bewitching women who
worshipped at the several churches.
Their costumes We're stylish and
varied, contrasting with their radiant
eyes and rosy checks. Below we give
few Of the elegant costumes, as many
as our reporter could observe while
paying attention to the sermon.n
Then follows the description. This is a
new departure in journalism and one
that we cannot see the propriety Of nor
commend.

HE YIELDED TO TEMPTATION.

Mr.. Tillman in his speech before the
Farmers Convention which met in
Columbia in 1856 said:
The temptations thrown in my way
by friends, and enemies also, in suggest
ing my name for Governor, are devices
Of the evil one to lead ME astray: but
have told the devil to get behind ME.
| commenced this fight pure and hon
est, and only 4 farmer. l will end it as
l began, and for reward l only ask
Your good opinion and contidence.'
1t would seem from this that Mr..
Tillman has been unable to keep satan
behind him. Of course he has right
to run for Governor if he wants to.

THE LEXINGTON INDIGNATION
MEETINGS.

The Lexington people have been
very greatly stirred up for the past two
weeks over the action Of Governor
Richardson i'll respiting the negro,
Wellie Leaphart, who had been con
victed and was sentenced to be hanged
for outraging a young white girl in the
town of Lexington some time since
When the respite was given the prls-
oner was removed to Columbia. Ihe
affidavit submitted to Judge Wallace
upon which he recommended the
RESPITE has not yet been made puoIlc
and the Governor refuses TO give 1t as
vet TO the public. The evidence OF the
guilt Of the party is conclusive. He
was permitted to he tried without
harm to his person and but for this
respite would have been executed
legally.
It is very rare thing for a negro
charged with this otfense on white
girl, to be given even trial. This Is
one crime that has been somehow
looked upon as deserving of summary
punishment. We do not want any
innocent man hanged, but the delay
and proceedings in this case Will very
much add to the chances of any one
in the future charged with this CRIME
being given summary punishment
without process of law or court.
The Governor we presume has wha
he considers good reasons for with
holding the contents Of the af1ldavl
upon which the respite was granted
but we cannot see how any good VII
result from it.

Col. Hoyt says in his interview pub
lished elsewhere: "It is time to coun-
sci forbearance, not to excite animosi-
ties" and this truth we fear some Of
our jealous friends have forgotten. AS
Col. Hoyt says in another place "the
enemy of to-day may be the standard
bearer of tomorrow" And if we
create too much friction and bad feel
ing it will be difficult to bow gracefully
to the will of the majority. There
should be more moderation and less
bitterness.

We thought one OF the main pIahkS
in the organic law of the Farmers Al
lance was that it was a non-political or
ganization, yet we see that several suo-
alliances are endorsing the March con-
vention and rledging to support MI
Tiilman for Governor. They even 60
so far as to condemn other people who
do not think as they do.
We are glad the farmers are taking
an interest in politics, but we can see
no GOOD to result to the alliance from
doing so as an organization.

One of the most enthusiastic Tillman
men we know in the county is a typo
in this office. In fact we believe a
majority of the force in the office are
inclined that way, yet they do not re-
fuse to work for US and we do not refu: e
to employ them. We accord them a
right to their opinion and they the
same TO US. There is no sense IN
friends falling out because they do not
agree on public questions.

Druggist, who Sold Liquor on Sunday
Resisted Arrest and Shooting Follows.

ISpecial to the News and Courier.]
News of a riot in Mccormick, S. c.,
is reported here tonight. The partlc-
ulars. as learned by your correspon-
dent, are that Mr.. Sturkey, one of
three brothers, reported DR.. Calhoun,
a druggist, for selling whiskey on Sun
day. An officer went to arrest the
doctor, and he pulled out his Win
chester rifle and opened fire. The
officer, it is said, was struck by the
bullet and seriously wounded. Other
citizens then took hand, and bloody
riot has been going on ever since.
Several persons, names unknown, are
said to be fatally shot. Report has It
that the fight still continues, and to-
night worse trouble is expected.
AN ACCOUNT FROM MCCORMICK.
MCCoRM1CK, April ol.-The town
constable and ?. b. Calhoun, druggist
here. became involved in a difficulty,
in which Calhoun was badly shot. The
widest excitement has prevailed here
since y o'clock to-day. Calhoun has
been arrested.
FURTHER DETAILS.
McCoRM1cK, April 22.-Iesterday

in a fever of excitement, the result of a
difficulty between Town Marshal J. NJ.
Jennings and his assistant, NJ. l.. Is.
Sturkev, on one side, and ?. B. Cal
houn, u druggist, on the other.
Calhoun had been charged with sell
ING liquor and was fined one hundred
dollars by the town council. He re-
fused at first to pay the fine, but after
wards complied. According to Jen,,
nings's story Calhoun stepped out OF
his store With a gun in one hand and a
pistol in the other, and said: "Now,
Jennings, you want anything you
can get it," w1ereupon Jennings told
him to consider himself under arrest.
Calhoun at this juncture blazed away
at Jennings twice, the balls glanclng
by his legs. Jennings returned the
fusilade, wounding Calhoun slightly IN
the head and other parts Of his body
His wounds were painful but not dan.

seventy-tive yards from the main
street and opened a general bonn
bardment with his Winchester rifle
upon the stores of }. B. Harmon,
Vi. l.. B. Sturkey & Co., and Jen'
nings and Sturkey, all of whom
from their doors and windows, re-
turned the fire with their shotguns
Calhoun eventually took refuge il

hour before sunset. Upon his return he
was taken into custody by J. p. Black
