ALLUDING TO the report that Con-
gresham O'Ferrall has the ear of the
President and therefore has the sup
port of the office seekers for the guber-
material nomination, State exchange
says: "Any man in Virginia supposed
to represent the appointing power can
carry off pie, plate and ALL" Virgin
ians. unfortunately for themselves, as
well as for their State, are not like their
fathers, but still it is hard to believe
that they have degencrated to the ex-
tent implied by the remark referred to-
In the earlier and better days of the
State the mere suspicion of an attempt
to influence the political action of Vir-
einia by any such means, and 1t can
hardly be more than that in the pres
ent instance, would have been disas-
trous to any man against whom 1t
might have been breathed.

The South Carolina Liquor Law.

Circuit Judge Hudson, recognized as
one of the strongest judges in South
Carolina, has decided the dispensary
law now in operation in that State
to be unconstitutional. He heard arg
uments yesterday on motion to is
sue an injunction against the
opening of dispensary in Darlington.
Judge Hudson, in deciding against the
State and declaring the law unconstitu-
tional, denounces it as great monopo-
ly and says it is not regulation of the
liquor traffic, but intended to raise rev.
enue for the State.
The decision is sure to have far-reach-
ing effects and result in great deal of
confusion. The case can hardly be
heard by the State Supreme Court be-
fore fall, and in the meanwhile the Cir
cult Court decision holds. There may
be variety of Circuit Court decisions,
indeed, one for each Of eight circuits.
The saloon men are happy. 1t is not
yet known whether saloons can reopen.
Things are very liable to get in a
muddled condition from this pc
culiar law. 1t is probable that
similar injunctions will be applied
for in most of the counties. Whether
an Injunction can be taken out against
sale of liquor in which dispensaries
are open is not known. The opinion
of the Supreme Court on the constitu-
tionality of the law has never been ex-
pressed. Governor Tillman was asked
about this yesterday and said that as
executive he would enforce the NV and
would punish any violation of it, even
by an employee of the road. If it was
law it must be obeyed, and if it was not
law let the courts say so.
a dispatch from Charlotte, n. c.,
says: 1.-THE Robert Portner Brewing
Company, which has a shipping deposit
tory for its beer in Charlotte, declares
its intention of shipping large quanti-
tv of beer to Charleston and Greenville,
in South Carolina. The Richmond and
Danville Railroad, which has decided
to ship liquors from other States to
South Carolina, will carry this ship
ment of beer. No secret is being made
of the matter, the brewing company
and the railroad maintaining that they
are willing to test the matter in the
courts.

ROUND HILL, LOudoun, Co., Va,
July 9th, 1893.
To the Editor of the Alexandria Gazette:
1t is not necessary to inform you
that the GAZETTE circulates extensively
through this region, for you know it,
nor is it necessary to state that You
publish good paper, for our people
are high up in intelligence and would
not subscribe for paper published in
Alexandria on personal grounds. They
take it for the same reason | do, be-
cause they think it well worth the solid
cash paid for it.
The average Virginian of all pursuits
believes it his duty to freely express
his opinion on all subjects that relate
to the public welfare, and, therefore. ]
concluded to drop you line in regard
to State politics, and attempt to reflect
the opinion hereabout ola large num-
Der Of democrats.
General Grant, l believe, was Presi-
dent in 1872; he is not now among the
living, there are others dead, requies-
cat in pace.
Within three years of a quarter of a
century since, when the southern
States were still in the throes of recon
struction, it is charged by his opponents
that Charles T. O'Ferrall, now candi-
date for.democratic nomil a.ion for Gov
ernor, had his name placed on a repub-
lican ticket. He denies it and l believe
him, but in the good Lords name what
has that to do with his president po-
lilical status? 1t appears to me it
should more seriously affect him if the
charge was made that he lacked cour-
tesv by failing to kiss the big toe Of
the royal Princess of Timbuctoo.
Does it not appear to you that there
is some awful dry moss on this resur-
rected petard, and that its sole object
is to divert the public mind from ma
tional issues through an uncommon
small side show?
Is not Mr.. O'Ferrall an honest, moral
and conscientious man?
= Has he not for many years demon
strated his ability in Congress?
Has he not stood well up in the front
ranks as a statesman, democrat, true
Virginian and patriot and contended
successfully for front rank IN the ma
tional councils for many years?
Is he not square on all political IS
sues with national and State democrat
ic teachings? Would he not, if nomi.
mated, be elected, and make a good
Governor?
Is there any man who has greater
fitness for Governor both from ma
tional and State standpoint
1 have no acquaintance with MIR.
O'Ferrall except that acquired through
knowledge of his public career for the
last dozen years, and that has convinced
me that he is the man for the hour.
do not think it necessary to study
ancient history to make up sound
Judgment in regard to proper nomi-
nee for Governor. Respectfully yours,

Summary Justice.

Summary justice has been melted out
to the iiend who assaulted and then
cut the Threats of the young Ray sis
tiers near Bardwell, KY, several days
ago. Charles Miller was the wretch's
name, and were it not that mob of
1000 men who had taken possession Of
him become too excited to carry out
their plans he would have been burned
alive instead of being hung, as was an
ticipated yesterday. After being drag
ged from the Jail the negro was hur-
ried away amid cries of "burn him" I'M
til IL telegraph pole was reached. A
chain was thrown around his neck, and
two men climbed the pole with the
other end of it. The negro was drawn
up and strangled. Some one fired a
shot into his body before he was dead.
EVERYBODY was disappointed and angry
at the manner of his death. The body
was lowered and horribly mutilated.
The ears, fingers and other parts were
cut away. The body was then dragged
by the mob a distance of 500 yards
across the railroad tracks and burned.
The fire was kept burning all night.

AS THE new LIQUOR law of South Car

AS THE new liquor law of South Car
DINA has been decided to be unconstl-
tutioual by a circuit judge in that
State, it is probable that liquor will
soon be selling at cheap rates in the
land of the palmetto, and Governor
Tillman thereby regain all his lost pop
ularity. as, if the decision be sustained,
the State will be compelled to dispose
of the immense stock of liquor it has
laid in, at a forced sale and for such
prices as it can get. Old time and
true blue democrats, who always work
in the traces, may sometimes be wrong,
but ninety times out of a hundred they
will do better for the people than kickers
and those who pose as independents
and reformers, when they think that
by so doing they will advance their
own selfish interests.

JUSTICE BREWER, ofthe us. Supreme
Court delivered an address on the 4th
inst, on individual liberty, in which he
rightly deplored the loss of such liberty
in this country, in respect of both cap
ital and labor, in the former, by means
of "trusts" and combines" which
freeze out the individual unless he shall
ioin them, and in the latter, by organl-
cations, which prevent him from work
ing against their orders, though his wife
and children may be suffering for the
necessaries of life. The worst of this is
that the evil so justly complained OF is
increasing, and that at present, at least,
it seems to be irremediable by law.

The Dead at Pomcroy.

FONDA, Iowa, July S.-Pomeroy was
a place of collins and confusion after
the cyclone had passed. The dead lay
upon the tables of an old billiard room,
child and greybeard side by side, with
the unwashed ice piled above the
bloody sheets with which they were
covered. A young man lay with
large splinter piercing him from should
er to thigh, another had been crushed
against the side of building with such
force as to leave him mere shapeless
mass of bone and flesh. One woman lay
in rear room with her head by her side
until her right limb should be found and
the shattered remains inferred in one
package; one woman was struck by
the flying sections of a roof and liter
ally crushed to pulp. The Frost sis
tiers, two young school teachers, had
been fatally injured under tree where
the wind had carried them, still lay on
the cold slab clasped in each others
embrace. The wind had set the one
hearse in town on end with the tongue
driven full length in the ground. Wag-
ons were used and twenty of the killed
were inferred yesterday.
The dead at Pomeroy now numbers
forty-four. OF the injured from twelve
to twenty more will die. The total
deaths from the storm in Iowa thus far
heard from reaches sixty-three.
