Stop the Hawaiian Intrigue.



II may be regarded as settled matter
that nothing will be done looking to the
restoration of the Hawaiian monarchy by
ident has surrendered. But the character
of his intrigue, and the fact that he is sill
withholding important documents throwing
light on the present conditions of affairs
in the islands, mske it incumbent
upon Congress at once to declare its
sense that until the result, of the congress
sionai investigations into the whole subject
of the Hawaiian revolution and the sp,li-
cation for anne RATION have appeared, 1t is
inexpedient that anything be done calcu-
lated to disturb the present status in Homo
lulu. The Senate has acted wisely in de-
Gliding TO enter upon an independent inves-
:igation of its own, and there certainly can
be only one opinion as to the impolicy Of
any proceeding on the part of the executive
which may interfere with that investigation
or with the action that Congress may deem il
advisable to take after its committees reports
have been received. Mr.. Cleveland has adj
mitted this. He has described the authority
of Congress as .'hrosder" than his own. He
SAYS that its poNers are ''e tended" and its
discr, ton s.wii- . aud he s.inits that in ad-
dressinS Congress he exp cts that it will do
something promising, iudse J, ito co operate
in any Legislative plan which may be devised
for the solution of the problem if it is
sconsistent with American honor, Integrity
and morality"
Insulting As it is to an American
Lesi.lsture to have any such provi-
sion as that attached to Pfesi-
dental Recommendation. the impor-
tsnf thing Just now is that Mr.. Cleveland
comedies the authority Of Congress to deal
generally with the subject of cur Hawaiian
relations ard admits is duty to get in the
immediate situation. II should not BE- nee
essaIy to arsu-. there fore, ihst the Presi-
dent ought to do nothing which can possibly
embarrass CONGRESS in The performance Of
that duly. II il particularly noticeable,

Denmark Lynchers Spare e Negroes
Life TIL This Morning.

COLUMBIA, s. c., April 2O.-A special to
the Register from Denmark, s. c., says:
"Henry Williams (colored), who criminally
assaulted Miss Mamie Baxter last week,
wes caught and brought here. a mob of
500 is in town. Part were for lynching
him Immediately, but the others said he
should not hang until morning. The mob
broke into the Jail and took him to
the scene of the crime to lynch him. 4
crowd followed, and Senator Mayfieid,

THE NEGRO IDENTIFIED.
DENMARK, 8. c.. April 20 - Farmer
Baxter's daughter and her brave little
brother, who defended his sister from the
black brute at almost the cost of his life,
recovered sufficiently from their injuries on
Wednesday TO fully identify their
assailant, and DR.. Sallee, in whose
employ the negro said he was, knew him,
but stated that he had not worked for him
negro's face, made by Miss Baxter IN her
struggle against q fate worse than death,
were other evidences, and also
the testimony of another negro
who denied that he had changed clothes
with the would-be rapist, as the latter had
stated. The community went carefully to
work to satisfy themselves that they had se~
cured the right man, and the news spread
far and wide.
EsAlI during this morning farmers were
gathering throughout Barnweu county,
preparatory to starting for Denmark, near
which place the negro was held under a
citizens guard. Determined men in bug
gies, wagons aud on horseback could be
seen driving toward the rem
devious. The morning trains of the South
Carolina road brought men from Barnwell
Court House, Blackwell and other places, and
by noon the woods around the old town of
Grahsm's as Denmark was oEce known,
were full of men who did not propose to all
low black flend to live longer
than was necessary to prove them to be
such. They belong to q race that never let
such outrages pass unpunished. Death,
and death by the most violent methods, is
their sentence. to teach lesson to all black
brutes
