THE SOUTH CAROLINA INJUNCTION.

THE SOUTH CAROLINA INJUNCTION.
Judge Golf, of the Federal court of
South Carolina has made permanent the
injunction forbiding any further proceed
ure under the act passed by the last
legislature of the State for the calling of
constitutional convention TO fix
qualifications for the suffrage. The in
junction is based upon the find
ings of the court that the reg
istration act of 1882 is unoonstitu
tional and that there were sufficient
frauds in the election last fall to vitiate
the calling of convention. 1t is we'll
known that the chief purpose of the con-
yention was to fix some qualification
for the suffrage that would entirely
exclude colored citizens from partioipa-
tion in elections, and that this puprose
might be more certainly accomplished
qualifications for the participation ir the
convention had been provided that
would exclude all representatives of this
class. Under Judge Goff's injunction
the proceeding must either be stopped
altogether or carried on in defiance of the
United States court, and that will surely
bring on a conflict between the State
and United States authorities. Judge
Goff's preliminary injunction was much
| criticized as an unwarrantn BILE interfer-
ence by the Federal court with a purely
| local matter, and it has been claimed
| that to the State courts alone belonged
the power of determining whether the
proposed convention infringed the con-
! stit1tion or not But the assumption that
| the matter is purely local or State is not
in accordance with che fact. The qualifi-
cations of the suffrage to be fixed by this
| convention would affect not merely the
election of State officials, but of repre-
sentatives in Congress and indirectly
Senators. But even If local elections only
were involved undoubtedly the United
States courts would have the right to in
terfere to prevent the disfrauchising of a
class OF citizens guaranteed the right of
suffrage by the Federal constitution by
conspiracy such as Judge Goff found to
limit the suffrage, provided they do not
limit it on account of race, color OF
| previous condition of servitude, but this
was really what they were trying to do
in South Carolina. By system OF regis
tr alton laws they practically shut cut
| the colored vote, and then undertook to
call convention TO ratify and make per-
manent this fraudulent exclusion of a
class, in violation of the constitution.
Gov. Evans is in quandary as to what
he shall do in the present emergency.
He is not quite ready to defy the United
States court, now that the injunction
has been made permanent, though when
the injunction was only temporary he
made good deal of loose talk in that
direction. The most he is willing TO say
publicly is thai the situation is very
grave, but that the public may rest as
sured that in some way white supremacy
will be maintained. We have no doubt
it will. If the constitutional process
fails there are bulldozing and ballot box
stuffing to fall back upon and in both of
those arts the South Carolina whites are
experts.

HELENA. April Z. - Judge Hiram

down the elevator shaft in the Gold block
and sustained very serious injuries. The
Judge has apartments on the fourth hoor,
and as usual he unlocked the door lead
ing from the first floor to the elevator. II
was very dark and he did not notice that
the elevator was up. He stepped into the
shaft and fell seven feet striking an iron
bumper. Ten minutes afterwards, ~ A.

heard cries of help. He procured assist.
ance and soon got the judge up stairs.
Drs. Tracy and Barbour made an ex-
animation and found fracture OF the left
hip, the capsul of the joint being broken.
The judge suffered terrible pain, but bore
up bravely. He was given an anesthetic
during the operation. but was In great
pain before and afterwards. He said he
had been to dinner and came down in the
elevator as usual. When he went back
he supposed the elevator was In place, but
some careless person had gone up and
failed 10 send the elevator back. The
Judge would not permit his friends to send
for his family, now in California. Late
| this evening he was removed to St. Peters
hospital, where he is now quite comfort

The Committee Reports That the Produe-
tion Far Exceeds Consumption
WASHINGTON, April 7.-Sir Julian
Pauncefote, the British ambassador. has
furnished to the department OF state
copy of q circular issued by the West In
dia committee of London concerning
sugar production. The ambassador ex-
plains that IL Is not TO be regarded as an
expression of opinion by his government
of the committees views. The circular
calls attention to tho fact that the sugar
industry, beet as we'll as cane, Is passing
through crisis of the most serious de-
scription, and expresses the hope that In
attempting to provide n remedy the vari-
Gus governments should avoid taking any
steps which may aggravate the crisis in
stead OF relieving IL. IL is shown that
while the production Is increasing at the
rate of 200. 900 tons per annuui, the con-
sumption grows slowly at the rate OF
only 250, 600 tons per annum- Naturally
prices are depressed and the bounty sys'
tenn Is ascribed rs the cause OF this state
of affairs. Therefore IL advises the en-
tire abolition of the bounty and the
stimulation of consumption by the reduc'
ton of the duties levied. which are exces'
sive In Europe and prevents the people as
| a whole from using sugar.
