GOV. CARN

What the eAttorney-G~
Appointing JIfS
An interesting question
days ago touching the stan
Justices of Peace, who might ben
pointed by the Governor to Ill tffS(
places of those who, though they had
been elected by the recent General
Assembly, had yet failed TO qualify
on the 1st day Of April, the day de-
signed in the creating act for the be-
ginning of the term.
1t seems that some of the additional
justices elected by the General Assem-
bly, have not qualified on the day
mentioned. Therefore. at the request
OF Governor Carr, Attorney General
Osborne has handed him the following
! opinion covering the question Of the
Governors right TO remedy failure Of
those elected To qualify by appoint
ment Of others:
II therefore advise you whenever
the appointees OF the last Legislature
have failed to qualify by their own
! neglect it matters pot for how long q
time after Apri. Ist, 1895 and still
| faii 10 do so, to appoint Justices OF
the Peace to the offices which are thus
rendered vacant. II before your ap-
! p3intee should qualify, the appointee
; Of the Legislature should take the
cath before the Clerk Of the Superior
Court, my opinion is the appointte of
the Legislature would have the bet
ter title; If your appointee should
| take the oath first. then he would
have the better title. In case OF the
| delay OF the appointee of tho Legis-
| lature TO qualify is not due to his neg
| lect, then your EXcellency should not
| appoint. Very respectfully,
| f. l. OSBORNE.

The car had stopped to receive

refused to work. He tried again
and the lever worked too well, for
the front end of the car rose up in
the air, throwing some passengers
into the street and piling those on
the inside in confused heap.
Nearly all the people on the car
were hurt in some manner, but on

Tillmanites Jubilant.

COLUMBIA, S. c., June lit is
a little early yet to tell what effect
the decision reversing Judge Golf
will have on the political situation
in this State. This much is certain
right now, the mass OF Negroes 80
suddenly given the ballot have had
it as suddenly wrested from their
grasp before they had power to use
1t. So far as Judge Goff's decision
in the Mills case is concerned this
would seem to leave things just as
they were before the decision Of
Judge Golf was rendered. But there
is another case pending in which an
order of injunction has been, issued.
Mr.. ]. F. j. Caldwell, the leading
counsel in this case, is here and
does not seem to be the least ex-
cited over the decision. His case
is far more sweeping In its plead
ings and it is aimed at stopping
the holding of the constitutional
convention and getting at the mat
ter on pleading that is up to all
requirements. He said last night
"that he will push this case as fast
as he can and feels confident of
winning" And it is a state OF I'M
certainty which hovers over every
thing. The state authorities are
jubilant and justly so, while the
Negroes are very down-hearted.

Racing in Illinois Is Dead Until

a New Legislature Meets.
CHICAGO, June 14.-With the ad-
journment of the Legislature to-
night, without having called up
the Humphrey racing bill in modi-
fed form, passed away the last
chance of horse racing in Illinois,
with betting attachment, under
the protection of the law, during
the coming two years. The owners
of the Hawthorne and Harlem
tracks, who were practically con-
Quoting the fight for protective
legislation alone after they had de-
feated the Aspinwall measure,
hoped to the very last day that the
Humphrey bill, amended so as to
omit some Of the most objectiona-
BILE lectures, would be taken out Of
the hands of the committee and
rushed through. There can be but
one outcome Of the situation. That
is, that the running meetings in
this state during the next two
years will be of little consequence
when they are attempted at all. All
the big stakes at Harlem will be
declared Off at once, including the
$4,000 Derby, the $4,000 Garden
City handicap, and the rest.
The stables Of ]. w. Rogers, g.
B. Morris, and Marcus Daley will
all be shipped east at once, as they
regard Illinois racing as dead.
