The Race Question Again.

The law-abiding people of the
South must do their duty in bring
ing to justice the mob who took the
eight negroes from jail at Barnwell,
S. c., recently, bound them to trees
and then riddled them with bullets.
They owe it to themselves and to
their state to prosecute with vigor
the perpetrators of this terrible
crime. VIII they do it? Itnow
looks as though they would not.
A portion, at least, of the victims,
were innocent of any serious crime,
and were only massacred with the
rest on account of their color. 1t
was a war of races.
While it is true that lawlessness
and deeds of violence may occur
in the North, it would be impossible
for such an outrage to occur with
out the most strenuous efforts being
put forth to bring the murderous
mob to justice.
If the people of the South cannot
or viii not put stop to these dis
graceful tragedies aud secure to the
colored people their constitutional
rights the federal government must.

The Missouri Press Assoclation.

ST. Louis, Mo, April 4.-The ex-
ecutive committee of the Missouri
state press association in session at
the Laclede hotel yesterday decided
that the annual meeting should be
held at Hannibal on August 10.
Mark Twain will be invited to deliv-
er an address, and it is expected he
will do so, as he was born near that
city and found many of the incidents
in his books in that section. The
meeting is to be followed by an ex-
cursion to st. Paul, Helena, Yellow
one Park, Salt Lake City and Der
yer. The cost of this will be about
$50. The committee prepared its
full program and a circular to send
out asking members to send in no.
tices as to whether they would &C

His Shots Told.

Birmingham, Ala, April Ga tel
egram came from Irondale tonight
asking for physician.
All that can be found out is that
three negroes were stealing railroad
iron to-day when Town Marshal En-
gland and Deputy Sheriff Fonten-
berry came up and called for their
surrender. The negroes ran about
a mile with the officers in pursuit
when one of them turned and shot
England. Deputy Fontenberry
opened fire On the negroes and when
the firing ceased all three We're dead
Marshal England will probably die.
The shooting created the widest
excitement in the town On account
of the political troubles there and
half the town was under arms before
the exact nature Of the affair was
learned. The political excitement
however, had nothing to do with the
tragedy.

Blew Out his Brains.

On Sunday night a young man by
the name of Adolph Lindemann, of
German descent, living with his par
ents few miles west of Rockville,
ended his mortal career in most
shocking manner, the particulars of
which, as near as we can learn, are
as follows:
Young Lindemann procured an
old shot gun and going to house
used as a kind of work shop fasten-
the gun in wooden wise and after
placing his forehead against the
muzzle of the gun pushed the trig-
ger down and the gun was dischag
ed. It is stated that the whole TOP
of his head was blown off and his
brains were scattered over the cell
ing and walls Of the room.

a BRACE OF FELONS.
They Expiate Their Crimes on the
Same GallOWS.

bonneville, Ga, April 3.-Robt.
Mccoy and VIM, Hicks, both color
ed, were hanged publicly here to-
day for the murder of VIM. Hughes
and his wife, and old couple. The
drop fell at 1890, and the felons
died in IA minutes from strangula
ton.
Both made full confession of the
brutal crime which they committed
and died game, going straight to
heaven.
The murder which they expiated
to day was one of the most cold
blooded in the catalogue of crime.
They were hired to kill other parties
and while on the way to do their
dastardly work, ascertained that Mr..
Hughes was known to keep consid.
erable money in the house. They
decided that it would be more lucra
tive to murder the Hughes family,
instead of the other party as intend
ed by them. They fingered around
the premises until evening and qui-
etly approached the house and found
the old lady in the kitchen cooking
supper. She was most cruelty MUIR
dered with an axe. Leaving the
kitchen they met the old gentleman
at the gate and served him similarly.
It was not until the following morn
ing that the murdered bodies were
discovered.
Robert Saxon, who aided in the
murder, was killed while resisting
arrest. McCoy's remains will be
sent to the Atlanta Medical College
and Hicks was sent to Perry fol
burial, his father accompanying the
remains.

Well, we are liable to cut a consid-
erable figure.
No, not as an organized party
Our constitution prohibits partisan
politics. Every member is free to
vote as he pleases.
