Horrible Massacre of Negroes.

The Chicago Times has the following &C.
count from Columbia, S. c., of the lynching
OF eight negroes at Barnwell, SouthC arolina
Three hundred armed men, with faces
masked, surrounded the jail just at the
darkest hour before dawn, while the inmates
are sleeping heavily. They move with eau
ton and as an organized body The taller
is quietly seized and quickly overpowered,
his keys taken from him, the heavy
doors unlocked and be: ore the eight negroes
sleeping within are awakened from
their sleep their cells are filed with strange
figures. They are seized and carried out in
to the night Their cries for mercy, prayers
and curses are alike UNDECIDED by their silent
executloners, The body of men is put in
motion and proceeds q quarter of mile and
halts in the outskirts of the town. The eight
unfortunate Wretches are secured, several
undred shots are fred and eight bodies lie
on the earth. with blood running from a hum

was the scene OF the terrible tragedy enacted

as the crimes records will prove. Four years
ago five men were lynched in Yorkville for the
brutal murder OF a little boy who caught
them stealing. But they belonged to an or
gained gang, whose members were sworn to
kill whoever caught them stealing. and they
were believed to have committed several
murders previously. Their conviction was
their own hands. But the wholesale lynching
at Barnnell is without parallel in the records
OF crimes, and there was less grounds for the
act than probably any lynching before. 1t
is doubtful II the country show like
record.

Secrets of the cronfn Jury.

The first authentic story of how Juror Cul
yer acted during the time tie jury was bal.
loting on the fate OF the Cronin plurderers was
told the PIONEER Press correspondent at
Chicago. The details were furnished by Ju-
ror Marlor by special permission ofState's.
Attorney Longnecker, and the recital may
result disastrously to the pious Evanstonian.
When the ballot was taken on guilt or inno-
cence OF prisoners eleven men promptly vot-
ed that Burke, Coughlin and O'Sulliyan
were guilty. Juror Culver alone bal
loted mot guilty. The result created con-
sternatlon In the room, but Culver was I'M
disturbed. Foreman Clarke paced the floor
IN passion. Culver had long been suspected
oy ms companions, to whom he had made
startling admissions. Another ballot was
taken as to whether Cronin was killed in the
carlson cottage Eleven jurors voted
1T he'd been stained by the doctors blood,
but Culver declared the state had
tragedy. turbulent scene followed.
Eleven men stood before Culver and demand
ed an explanation, but the strange juror in
tensitied the bitterness by remaining silent.
Culver pleaded WEAKNESS and requested b
cot. His colleagues stormed and refused to
upon plank and began to pray loudly.
During his suppication he was the
target for volly of interrogatories,
but paid no attention. Saturday
morning the obedient juror opened the storm
afresh by defending Martin Burke, the fugi-
tive assassin who, he said, had not been
identified as Frank Williams. The eleven
Others could stand this no longer. They
gathered in a corner and wrote a series of
questions On slips of paper. Culver made no
reply. He perspired profusely and trembled
violently. Foreman Clarke followed Culver
up and down until the latter, becoming panic
strlcked, opened the door and called Bailiff
Santa. The door was slammed shut and,
with pallid face, Culver fell on his knees and
began praying again. His companions
banged on the table and raised such uproar
that Culver resumed his march around the
room. The eleven men followed him with
lmprecations. Finally Culver grew so weak
that he called three jurors into one corner
and agreed to vote Coughln. Burke anu o 'Sul-
llvan guilty, providing kunze and Beggs were
released. The proposition was registered.
Then Culver Tell down and was soon asleep.
When morning came q ballot was taken. 1t
resulted as follows:

violating their agreement of the previous

the fixing of the punishment for Burke,
O'sullivan and Coughlin Eleven jurors
voted to hang Burke, but Culver held out.

when Coughlin's name was called. When the
weary men lay down to sleep that night

ed that fourteen years long enough

asleep When morning came Culver
consented to send Burke, O'Sulivan and

five years. The next ballot resulted Ito 1.
After the thirtieth ballot Culver threatened
to withdraw his vote of guilty unless the

Jurors Walker and Pierson were growing i'll.
The situation was desperate. Finally on the
thirty-second ballot the twelve voted bal

While the verdict was being written Culver
said he believed the men to be innocent and
that he only yielded to the majority because
lie believed them to be conscientious men.

money by hiring home labor and using
home material.
In regard to sidewalk and street nave
ments We believe we express the senti
ment Of the great majority Of the
tax payers when we protest against the
use of any other than Utah material. We
believe we voice the opinion of nine tenths
OF the property owners when we protest
against sending to England for cement for
sidewalks. We believe that the masses
will almost revolt if other than Utah stone
or Utafr asphaltum shall be laid on any OF
the public streets. If the policy is to save
money or, the first cost of these improve
ments, why not send for gang OF Chinese
or import d drove of Mexican poems to take
the place Of home white labor? This would
be as consistent as to import paving blocks
from beyond the Mississippi, or fetch Port
land cement across the ocean.
The people should have voice in these
matters; it is their right, which should not
be denied them, to designate the material
for which they must pay. We know that
if left to them the people would say, no
more imported cement so long as there are
smooth sandstone slabs within few hours
of the city; no paving material from be-
yond the Utah border SO long as we have
enough granite and enough asphaltum to
pave the streets OF every capital on the
globe

HOME MATERIALS.

The matter of using home materials for
local public improvements was before the
council on Tuesday evening, and one gen
tleman made an earnest and, we hope, sue
cessfnl appeal in their behalf
This is essentially home material c on
munity. To patronize home institutions.
to encourage home industries, to utilize
home resources have been bprn and bred
in the people, and taught them from the
pulpit and through the press. The sssua-
ton of the people compelled them 10 adopt
and encourage the ''home made, principIe.
They were months travel from the mann
featuring centres, and had no WAYS of
earning money with which to pav for what
they required. Necessity forced them IN
rely upon themselves to produce what they
must have, and it was necessity which
drove them TO utilize such material re-
sources as existed. The ''valley-tann idea
was born or the truest economy. and .be
result of living up TO il is seen in the
fact that large community grew rich and
prosperous within itself Wealth was
created and helG. Instead OF telling for
and e1lrioa,ing others, the Utah peorle
worked for themselves and retained the
profits among themselves.

WYOMING AND gaE DEMOCRATS.

Outraged by the polilp....tl outlook. On the
contrary, the leaders of the party are quite
hopeful of obtaining control of the nesy
state, and are going to struggle to that end
from the start. They point to the fact that
two years ago there was big split in the
party, and the Democratic nomination for,
Congress went to an unknown man, the
strong men of the party being ignored; that
little was done in the way of campaign,
and practically no money was expended;
that the Republican candidate was the pop
ular Judge CAREY, who had done good work
for the territory in two Congresses, and
had plenty of money at his back, and that,
Notwithstanding the Democratic leth-
arey and disaffection the Republican
that if the election in 1888 had been
contested earnestly and with vigor the
race would have been very close Since
then the immigration has been largely
Democratic, especially In the three
western counties, where the people are
tired of yielding everything to Cheyenne
and the east. Judge CAREY will not be
candidate before the people, as he has his
eye on Senatorship, hence new man
will have to be taken up for Congress and
there is no man in the Republican party
who is as popular with the voters as the
late Delegate. The Democrats have many
strong men and they will not draw their
purse strings tightly as they did two years
ago. They realize that the contest is an
important one, as the party which wins
the first election will have the advantage
thereafter, and be very apt to hold the
state for several years.
A Democratic victory in Wyoming next
autumn would be as astonishing to the
Republican party of the nation as it would
be glorious. The state was created for no
other purpose than to increase the Repub-
lican strength in Congress and in the cleo
toral college; if there had been an in
timation that possibly the new state would
fall into the Democratic column Wyoming
would have been kept out of the union and
forced to keep company with New Mexico
and Arizona. 1t will be amusing, as well
as poetic justice, if the new state shall re-
fuse to be used in any such disreputable
