The people of Darlington are determined
that no destruction of state property shs
be permitted here, and last night, when an
effort was made to loot the d,spenssry, it
was promptly resisted.
Duriog the morning sn effort was made
to organize the citizens 10 resist the country
volunteers thst Governor Tillmsn had called
for. Mayor Dsrgan and other promipent
citizens addressed the men and advised
them not to make any such demonstration
but remain perfectly quiet, as the under
standing was that Governor Tillmsn, upon
advice of Gen. Farley, would do nothing to
excite the people here, and the military
would, under no circumstances, be allowed
to come here.
General Farley Was of the opinion
that there was absolutely no occa-
sion for the bringing of the military
The people here dit not at all like the
idea of having the Western Union Tele-
graph Office put under censorship at Colum-
bia on their account.
With all the posses back in the city, all
of the constables out of the county, the
people bent upon keeping the peace, comes
the news that 900 troops from Columbia
have started on the way here. At this hour,
p. NJ, efforts are being made to have the
troops retnrn to Columbia, on the ground
that their presence can do no possible good.
Upon the receipt of the news that state
troops were being sent here under Gen.
Richbourg, the sd, isory committee promptly
met. After consideration of all sides of the
question it was decided thst no effort will be
made to have the troops stopped, nor would
any resistance be offered to their taking up
quarters here,
A message was received by the advisory
committee from Governor Tillman, in
which he says that ss soon as life and prop
erty are safe in both counties, he will issue
a proclamation restoring the civil status.
There was no demonstration when the
troops arrived tonight. The mayor of the
city had thrown open every public place to
the troops. Altogether there are some 200
men most of them are well drilled organ
izations. There is not the slightest indica-
ton of trouble.

The Pay of Firemen.

To the Editor of The Evening Star:
Not wishing to disparage the good work
so early and ably championed by The Star
to raise contributions for the sorely stricken
families whose providers have been so ruth
lessly torn from them, would it not be bet
ter to ask. by petition or otherwise to the
proper authorities, that the salaries OF our
brave firemen be raised to such adequate
proportions as to allow and enable them to
take care, Independent of popular subscrip-
tion,O of the families and loved ones depend
ent upon them, and who in a very short
time will disappear from the public mind
for one say give these noble men wages
enough to provide for the dark days which
their dependent families will pass through
as a result Of fidelity to duty by the below
ed husbands, fathers and brothers.

Insure the Eiremen,

To the Editor Of The Evening Star:
1 would respectfully suggest, In, viewrof
the object lesson we have very recently
had. that, inasmuch as we expect fremen
to risk their lives in saving our property
and often the lives Of our families, we
ought not, in case their lives are sacrificed,
to place their families in a position Of de-
pendence on charity. I would suggest
therefore, that 1t is no more than right in
justice and humanity for the District gov
eminent to keep insurance of at least
$1,000 on the life of each and every fireman
for the benefit of his family in case of
death while in the discharge of his duty.
