THOSE WHO started out TO be-head
the Big Three, have succeeded,
That's about all there is in 1t. Those
who think they have revOlutionized
the government very materially, are
mistaken. Those who think Il ey
have made any big saving, are mis-
taken. In truth, the whole hight hss
been very much 0f tempest in n
tea pot" aud nobody has won any
decided victory except those preju-
diced few who wanted to decapitHte
the Big Three. Nothing would salts
fy the Andrews bill crowd when they
etarted out, but that the City Mar
shall and Recorder should be elected
direct by the people. This was their
dearest wish, and this the HERALD
waged war against, arguing in the
first article we wrote upon the sub
ject that we we're opposed to giving
the negroes, the dead beats and the
buns the same voice and vote in q
municipal government that an
honest tax payer enjoyed. From
first to last we made the fight on thi'
line, and make it 50 hot that the
Andrews bill crowd dropped Mr.
Andrews bill without even giving
him the courtesy OF a hearing; anC
then Mr.. Smiser drew up a bill "lol
harmony" which-iudging from thu
little Of il that has been prin,ed-is {
very harmless sort of bill, eXcep

fair and unjust advantage of tire,

e'ec ed to the offices they lold. Tn,
HERALD would have befriende'
Messrs. Erwin, Latta and LipscOmb i
il could; and for that 1t has neithe
excuse nor apology to offer. But tn,
prime purpose of the HERALD was Il
defeat what was the dearest wish o
the opposite side; this is, the election
of tn s. officers by a direct vote O
he people; and in that the HERALl
has succeeded.

the Board of Mayor and Aldermen
and held last Saturday, to vote for or
against supervisors, resulted in 476
votes for mo supervisors" and 3
"fOr supervisors. The friends Of
the supervisor system declined TO

the petitions, and If justice would
not be accorded them then, it would
not be accorded at all.

physical trouble that caused the several post
ponements of the hearing, followed close by her
side. II there were any one in the room who
had previously doubted the newspaper reports
to the effect that Mrs. Boyd was q strkinyly
handsome woman the idea was dispelled almost
instantly. There was no one in the room who
did not gaze on her face. The scene was short
but impressive. Mrs. Boyd looked we'll with
the exception OF slight pslior about the
cheeks, the result OF continued confinement
and Illness Her dark features were rendered
more impressive by large and expressive eyes,
the pupils of which appeared dilated. Her
face plainly showed traces of suffering. Her
dress was black, well fitted to her form and
finely made. Her bonnet was also of black ma.
teriais. with crepe veil. Mrs. Boyd's mother
was less composed and she could not restrain
the tears that forced themselves to the surface.
The mother and daughter were spared a pro-
!onged silence by tho appearance of her attor-
ney, William Martin, accompanied By S. II.
Piles. Mr.. Martin converscd few minutes
with his client and then informed the justice
that both Mr.. Piles and himself were busy in
the superior court Mr. Piles then supple
mented his remarks by waving an examination.
Deputy Prosecuting Attorney Winstock said the
state had no objections. Justice Humphrey
glanced at Mrs. Boyd and said:
1.-THE defendant is bound over to the superior
court for trial, and is committed without BAIL"
The justice then went on writing aud the de.
fendant sat still as death. her big black eyes
revealing something OF the shock she knew was
coming and was unable to avoid, and her bear
ing indicated that she felt the gravity OF the
situation.
Jaiier Monroe waited a moment after the
justice had spoken and then walked out. fol-
lowed by Mrs. Boyd and her mother. The steel
door to the woman's department in the souta-
west part of the Jail clicked and all was over.
Information charging the defendant with
murder in the first degree will be filed probably
today and the trial set for an early date.
