AbbeyiIIe's Prospects and AbbeviIle's
Needs.

Abbeville Is getting on boom. On all sides
are signs OF buildingiand prosperity; and AN.
beville will very likely be one of me largest
and most prosperous towns In the upper
Suoth Carolina. in short while. with all
our ra ilroad facilities. our splendid new shool
the railroad repair shops and the increase or
population that they will bring will make
abbeville one of the most important towns
in the State. Two new churches are going up:
also several dwellings and more To be oullt
soon, there has also been several stores, etc.
started lately and other good signs; Our next
move should be to have ware house Where our
70 armers can safely store their cotton. Nearly
ali towns Of this size have them and we surely
can have one. WeLave about seven or elgnt
cotton BUYERS this season with prospects OF
more next season and we ought TO have q
ware house. The cost would not be great ana
the money could ne raised oy SUBSCRIPTION. !:
A company could be formed and have IL oullt
by next season. This would he good thing
for US and the farmers for miles around. Let
us have one In the near future; IL would oe
great r at advantage to US, so let us haveit.

The Della Howe Estate.

From the expression OF our correspondent
as to the feeling of the delegates TO the Cen
eral Assembly, we believe they represent the
sentiment OF our people in reference to the
proposed sale OF part OF the lands belonging
to the poor children of this County.
While the financial management OF the
institution is perfectly satisfactory to the
best interests of the institution, yet exper-
lence teaches that no investment is so per
manent and safe as real estate. The present
management in the course of time. will give
place to other agents of the fund who may
not be as careful and as cautious as they are.
The sale of the estate might possibly give
rise to different questions OF law, for 1t Is
very doubtful If the Legislature has the
right, under the will, to sell the land.

Leave this Fair Land for the

The Southhound g., e. & ~, took from Alb.

quite mum her of their frienns were present
TO bid them farewell. Except Mr.. j. T. Miller,
the whole party OF emigrants were young,
healthy and hopeful OF brighter future, and
may be more than realized. but when people
pull up stakes and leave the land OF their
birth to seek 81 home and a fortune In new
and, to them, an untried country, among
strangers. the heart involuntarily experiences
n feeling OF sadness, and nobody ever knows
the prvatons and sufferingS to which the
emigrant is often subjected, or course the
best lands and the most desirable places have
been already taken, and they must scuflle for
The party consisted OF the following named
persons:
j. T. Miller, Due West.
j. b. Lowe, Anderson County.

The three last named are children. The
first named is an old man, far advaced In life.
He leaves his home. and the friends OF life-
time. quits the scenes with which he has been
familiar for more than sixty years to find
a resting place in n distant State.
Mr.. Miller goes to Waco, and the other par
ty goes to Dallas, where they will break up
and seek diflernt homes, as their fancy or
their imagination may entice them.

South Carolina unQueStionably needs q
more stringent law in regard to insurance
com panies doing business In this STATE
Spnrtanburg Herald.
The insurance companies deal only with
property holders, and need not be interfere
with. 1t is quite different with the railroads.
Everybody wants to ride on railroad, or Is
interested In getting cheap rates. The rail-
roads have no votes. Therefore, they must be
regulated. Ifa vindictive Legislature and a
greedy combine OF strikers fail to regulate the
railroads, we will be surprised.

THE KELLEY INSTITUTE.
Let Us Assist Those Who May Desire
its Treatment.

Mr.. Miles Johnson will visit Abbeville this
week in the interest of the Kelley Institute.
That there are persons here who ought TO take
the treatment there Is no doubt. In other
communities money has been raised 10 assist
those who wished the treatmeut-the money
being lent to them, and when returned, 1t has
been lent to others. II Abbevllle would lend
a helping hand to rescue any victim of the
whlskey disease, much more good would be
effected than by sending thousands OF dollars
to propagate our religion in China.

A Hopeful View.

The future of the negroes of the
United States, or, as some writer's of
their own race prefer to call them,
the Afro>Americans, is subject OF
grave import both to the whites and
to the colored. 1t is a matter alrea.
dy receiving attention from thinkers
of both races. The educated Afro
American sees in the history Of the
two races and in human nature ex
plantations of the lines Of distinction
that are drawn and sets himself to
the task, not of abusing the domi.
nant race or of embittering Ethe ne
groes against those who assume su-
periority, but of calmly considering
the means of overcoming existing
prejudice, as similar prejudices have
been overcome among other people.
In this connection an address worthy
attention was delivered before the
Bethel Literary Society last night
by Mr.. Andrew F. Hilyer. The
speaker was a colored man and he
addressed colored audience. Mr..
Hilyer stated very clearly that theme
gro did not demand social recognition
This he alleged demand forsocial
equality, he said. was used as bug
abo to make enemies for the race.
What they did ask was equal indus
trial opportunities, The color pre-
judice, he held was to be overcome
by an exhibition of worth and power
by the colored people that would
command respect. He urged de
velopment of all their resources to a
point that would place them on an
equality with the whites in an indus
trial sense. This, he asserted, was
to be secured by the exercises ofrace
sympathy. by cooperation and de
vel ,pment Of the power OF organiza-
ton. Mr.. Hilyer's address was of a
hopeful character. He denied that
there was any increase in the feeling
of prejudice, holding that what
seemed to be stronger feeling was
orly the natural resistance that the
coloi ed man met as he advanced

100. and WoOnsocket by little less
The Democratic assembly ticket il

vote polled was the largest in the his
tory Of the state. The result is sur

Notes About the Fight.
The state election in Newport was a
hot fight. Thevote has been very large.
and ward rooms were the centers of ex
citement all day. This eliminated in
the fifth ward where the Republicans
claim that the Democratic supervisor
who is also president of the common
council, violated the ballot law by Civ.
ing unsolicited assistance to a voter.
They collected evidence and placed it in
the hands Of ex-city Solicitor Peckham
who has promised to prosecute if it Is
sufficient, and prominent Republican
lawyer is of the opinion that it is.
The Republicans propose to bring
criminal suit against the president and
Supervisor Boyle, and, perhaps, the
warden of the ward as well, and, also.
if necessary. will appeal to the supreme
court and contest the seats Of members
Of the legislature elected here
There was a serious row over the
election in Jam stown, eliminating il
a personal assault by the Republican
representative, J. B. Banders, upon DR.
Howland. a Democrat, which neces
STATED the attendance of physician
and may result seriously.
In Woonsocket the Democratic assem-
bly, ticket was elected by about thirty
majority.
The Democrats lost an assemblymar
in North Smithfeld
West Greenwich goes Democratic.
The Republicans lose two assembly
men, the Democrats gain two assem-
blymen in Foster, Republican strong
hold.
There was no election for assembly
men in Exeter, Republican, last year.
Gloucester elects two Democratic as
semblymen. The total Democratic as
sembly gain thus far is FIVE.

satisfaction of the demands ofjustice
may be the pretense. but it is only
the motive. The prisoners lynched
are always such as would get cold
justice untempered with mercy in
the courts. The mob never takes a
prisoner out Of the hands 0 the law
for fear that he may escape justice
at the hands of the law. The rich
murderer, the murderer who has in'
fuential friends. who may fee. able
counsel or pack a jury with his
friends, has no fear of the mob. It
is only the weak and the triendless
criminal whose crime is punished by
mob law and mob murder.
To make matters worse, in very
large per cent of these cases the
the crime is easily preventable.
There is abs rlutely no excuse for al
lowing a mob to break into strong
Jail lead out a number of prisoners
and shoot or hang them to death.
One brave, determined man can
keep any mob at bay. Why should
an officer charged with the custody
of prisoners and sworn to defend
them, hesitate to shoot a blood thir-
sty ruffian bent upon murder?
Why should he hesitate to defend
the law and its prisoners against law
less violence by all means necessary
to repel it? We have had enough
of these atrncious and cowardly
lynch murders. 1t is time now TO
shoot or hang a few lynchers.-Mem
