Governor Tillman is opposed to the
Sub Treasury bill, and has consented
to discuss tbs subject with Ben Ter
ren, the national Alliance lecturer, at
the next meeting of the State Alb
ance.
Charleston politics seems destined
to be muddled. Governor 1illman
removed W. P. Cantwell. the super
visor of registration of Charleston, os-
tensibly because he was holding two
Offices. Mr.. Cantwell declined to be
be removed. Governor Tillman ap-
pointed Geo. ". Williams as deputy
supervisor, and the whole thing is in
confused condition. Mr.. Williams
has the books of the Office, and it is
probable that Cantwell will eventually
have to accept kicking out.
This is day of progress. Last
Saturday we left Manning after nine
o'clock in the morning, spent an hour
in Sumter, went to Darlington, spent
two and half hours there, returned
to Sumter, where we staid two hours
more, and then got back to Manning
q little after seven o'clock. We were
thus able ir one day between sunrise
and sunset to spend two hours and a.
half in Darlington, three hours in
Sumter, and three hours in our Office
in Manning. We repeat it that when
one can be in three different county
seat towns, and do a full days work
exclusive of time consumed in travel
ing, that it is q day of progress.
The new railroad schedules are as
convenient as we could reasonably ask
for, and the travelling pnblic duly ap-
preciate it, but our mail facilities are
poorer than ever. We now practical
II get but one mail day, as the Col
umbia mail gets here so late at night
it is not opened till next morning, BY
which time the Charleston mail has
come in. What we need is a mail
service on the other two passenger
trains. Then we would indeed be
happy, with a double passenger and
mail service. Failing to get the
double daily mail service, it would be
far more convenient to have the Col
umbia mail to come on the mornings
train. The Columbia morning papers
can duly appreciate this suggestion OF
a morning mail from Columbia.

Court opened 10 o'clock Tuesday
morning, and the case of Thos. W.
Blown was begun. The testimony
in this case was somewhat conflicting,
the State showing that Mr.. G. F. Nc
Faddin had been shot on the prem
ises of MIR. Brown without legal pro-
vocation, while the defense set up the
plea that McFaddin went to Browns
place to collect some money, and not
getting it INDUCED in offensive Ian
guage towards Brown in the presence
OF his family. Both parties drew
pistols and McFaddin was shot in the
thigh. The case was hotly contested
by the attorneys on both sides. The
jury found verdict of not guilty.
The case against Chas. F. McFad-
din for assault of a high and aggra-
vated nature and for carrying con-
cealed weapon was next tried. This
was cross indictment growing out
of the same difficulty as the former
case. It took up nearly the whole of
the afternoon and resulted in ver-
dict of guilty, with recommendation
to mercy. The sentence was fine
OF fifty dollars or six month in the
State penitentiary. He paid the fine.
+. The last case heard was that Of
Benjamin ". Ward for selling liquor
without license. This case was re-
ported to and presented by the grand
jury at the last term of court. The
State got in its direct testimony and
the defense commenced its reply when
darkness came on AMI the court took
a recess until this morning.
This morning the Ward case was
resumed, and occupied all the morn
ing. The jury then took it in hand,
and at half past six o'clock this after
noon rendered verdict of not guilty.
It will be noticed that nearly all of
the cases were against white men.
The negroes seem to have been be-
having themselves.

1t Discusses Emperor Williams Liquor
Bill and American Pork

BERLIN, Oct. 10.-tfter a long recess
the bunaesrath or Legislative body repre-
senting the individual states of Germany
reassemb!ed Wednesday. The house con-
s1dered as the first order the projected
law to repress drunkenness which, as is
we'll known, is the pet measure of the en-
peror. a majority of the plenipotenti-
aries declared that their governments
could not accept the project in the present
form. A Bavaria representative intima-
ted that his state desired no such liquor
legislation as that proposed. The Prus-
sian member, acting under instructions
from the emperor, was the only plenipo-
tertiary who defended the measure. The
bill was finally referred to a commission.
1t is certain that it will appear in the
relchstag transformed from the rude,
thorough attack upon the liquor traffic
into a mildly benefcient bill for the pro-
lection of drunkards. The liquor dealers
are arranging for holding congress at
Stuttg for the purpose of organizing a
political defense.
The bundesrath discussed the abolition
or the prohibition against The importation
Of American pork and approved the edict
opening the country to America, but will

lax the vexatious formalities restricting
the entry of Austrian, Italian and Russian
pork into Germany. Austria has COM

Twenty-first Congress of the National

Ex-PreSident Rutherford B. Hayes d.

on Reforms.
Special Need for Improvement In
Means of Dealing With

PITrsBuRG, Oct. 12.-The twenty-Grsi
annual congress Of the national prison as
ISOLATION opened this evening in Carnegis
hall, Alaghaney. Gov. Pattison, VINO
was to have received the delegates on be-
half of the state, was unavoidably de-
tanned but was ably represented by Adiu-
tant General MoCIeland Major Courtney,
welcomed the delegates In behalf of the
cities of Pittsburg and Allegheny. The
president of the association, ex- president
Rutherford B. Hayes. then delivered his
annual address, dwelling on reforms in
present methods. The salient PORTS
were that if the jais and lock-
ups in our country, four or FIVE thousand
in number, are in truth as they often have
been aptly termed, compulsory schools Of
crime maintained at public expense, we
hall have from this quarter alone an &C.
cession to the criminal classes in each
decade of perhaps forty thousand trained
experts in crime. He urged, above
all things, reform in the manner of deal
ing with the Young, the beginners in law
breaking. The professional criminal,
said Mr.. Hayes, belongs in prison. To
the question how long he should be kept
there, the answer is until he is cured
of his criminal habits, if it
keeps him a convict to the end
of his life. Mr.. Hayes also dwelt at length
upon the question of what should be done
to protect and encourage ex-convicts on
their discharge from imprisonment, IN
stead of as now, IN many cases, bounding
them back to crime

RIOTS IN CHINA.

SHANGHAI, Sept. 12-The North China
Daily News referring editorially to the
ichang riot says there are points about it
OF serious Importance. 1t is in no sense
the work of a mob. There was, indeed, a
pretext in the shape of a child said to
have been kidnapped, but this is evidently
a mere subterfuge. There is evidence that
the riot was directed and carried out by the
soldiers. The Chinese general at Ichang
is friend of foreigners but he was help
less in the presence of orders evidently
sent his Human soldiers to destroy all the
foreign property they could that day.
Wnen the soldiers got orders from their
secret leaders they cared nothing for the
officers. The central government is pow
erless, for it has Human officials every
where and troops everywhere are Humans
men except Ii Hung Changes disciplined
force. To order him to sup
press Human with these men is
to start civil war. The situation is very
critical, and the only solution is for a
foreign force to overawe Human with
the tacit connivance of the Chinese gov
eminent. There will be no security for
foreign life OF property in China unless
the rebelIious Hunanez are suppressed by
force.
