Outrage and Murder,

NASHVILLE, Tenn, June 27.-Mrs
Bate who lived near Shelbyville, was
outraged and murdered by some
unknown person yesterday.
When her husband returned home
at dinner time he could not find her,
and instituting a search he finally
discovered her body near the house.
Her skull had been crushed, and there
were other marks of violence.
No clue to the identity of the MUIR
derer has been found, but a thorough
search is being made, and, if the
guilty person is found, he will be
lynched. Great excitement exists in
the neighborhood where the terrible
crime was committed.

BAD PROPHETS.

Matt. w. Ransom may be all
right to vote $4,000 annual
pension to Grant and appropria-
tons for objects North when ask
ed for, but when it comes to Civ
ing political advice in North Car
DINA, or forecasting political
events, we are very much inclin-
ed to believe that he is q back
number and away out of date.
It is such advice that he gives
and such prophesies as he and
Ed. Chambers Smith make, that
has done more to demoralize
Democracy in North Carolina
than any thing else.

JARVIS FOR CHAIRMAN.

The following from the Will
mingtOn Messenger and Balti-
more Sun is thoroughly enc orsed
by THE SENTINEL. 1t expresses
our views SO entirely chat we
have nothing more to add to it /:
We are anxious to see Governor
Jarvis at the head of the Democratic
State Committee. The canvass to be
conducted must be by brainy, sa-
gacious, cool headed, self contained,
industrious, firm manager. No bung-
ling should be allowed in such crisis.
The times are most extraordinary,
something "out of joint" in fact. The
ablest possible management is the de-
sideratum.
We do not doubt that the announce
ment that Thomas j. Jarvis was at
the head of the committee and would
prove highly satisfactory to most
Democrats, and would be regarded as
something of an augury for victory.
The Messenger was the first to name
him and would feel encouraged in its
work to know that the best man in
the State for the place was on deck.
The Baltimore Sun says:
eek Gov. Thomas j. Jarvis is fa-
vorably mentioned in connection with
the Craftsmanship of the North Caro-
lima Democratic executive committee.
This would be an excellent selection.
Governor Jarvis understands The COM
plicated political situation in the old
North State thoroughly, and is wise
aud conservative in his counsels.
With such a man % direct the CAM
paign North Carolina would doubt
less respond with its usual decisive
Democratic majority"

THE.MINER LAW.

The fact that the constitutions
ality of the Michigan electoral
law, know as the Miner law, has
been affirmed by the Supreme
court of the State, has already
been noticed in The SENTINEL.
Itprovides that instead ofchoos-
ing the presidential electors on a
general ticket, as the universal
! custom has heretofore been, only
two electors at large shall be
chosen by the State. The rest
are to be chosen by congression-
al districts, each of the twelve
districts into which the State
is divided by the recent appor-
tionment choosing an elector for
that particular district.
This law was passed when the
Democrats, by a division in the
Republican party, got posses
sion of both branches of the leg
islature. The State as a whole
being Republican, the object Of
the law was to enable the Dem
ocrats to choose the electors in
the districts where they have a
majority.
The Democrats nOw have seven
out of the twelve districts, and
as the two electors at large make
the total number fourteen, there
is reason to believe that the cleo
tors will equally divided between
both parties.
President Benjamin Harrison
denounced this law in his last
message to congress, but the Su-
preme court of Michigan, which
is composed of three Republicans
and two Democrats, does not
sustain him. The court in it's
opinion laments this departure
from the universal rule, but it
declares it constitutional. The
Providence journal shows that
the Michigan method was first
in use among the States. 1t
says;
"The district system of choosing
electors was in vogue in Massachu-
sets from the first presidential cleo
tion for many years; in North Caro-
lima it was continued in use until 1911,
and in several other States it was em-
ployed until well on in the present
century, New York not changing I'M
til 1928 and Maryland not till after
the election of 1882. At different
times and in different States other
methods of choosing electors have al
so been Used besides either the district
or the general State ticket system.
All these various schemes were entire
Iy legal under that clause of the Fed
eral constitution which provides that
each State shall appoint its president
ial electors Sin such manner as the
Legislature thereof may direct New
ertheless, in the face of this broad
permission, action was brought in the
Michigan courts to declare the Miner
law unconstitutional, either in ignor-
ance of the Federal provision or in
the hope that the State Supreme
Court, being Republican body, might
find some means Of overturning the
statute. The constitutionality of the
Michigan law being now judicially
affirmed, in the event of tie vote in
the electoral college the electoral
vote of Michigan by holding the bali
ance between the two parties may be
OF great Importance"
