THE CONTEST SETTLED.

The contested election eases for
Worcester county have been decided
in favor of the Democratic contestees.
This is what we have been expecting
ever since the Senate hung up the
appointment of Mr.. Charles o. Mel
win, W. w. johnson and other ap-
pOintees of Governor Lowndes. The
MESSENGER said. as soon as the Re-
publicans of this county decided to
contest the election, that we need ex-
pect nothing like fair consideration
of the case by such partizan Legisla-
ture as that now in session, and the
facts bear us out. We do not write
to deceive, and we mean what we say
the people of Worcester county
know this, and we point them once
more to evidence which is undisputa-
BILE that the MEssENGER's estimate of
this committee and the people who
were pushing the contest was and Is
correct one. If it had not been that
the Republicans knew that Senator
John Walter Smith would kill their
goose If they killed his duck. the CON-
mittee would have decided the election
contest in favor of the Republicans.
Delegate Lewis of Caroline county,
openly charged this on the floor Of
the House of Delegates last Tuesday,
and his remarks appeared in the Sun
of Wednesday. In commenting fur
Their upon the case the Sun says:
The speedy report in the Worcester
case is said To be due to the activity of
the candidates for police commissioners
and their friends, who worked hard
throughout the afternoon to have the
report brought in. They knew how
far their election rested ON this action
and were anxious to have their sus-
pense relieved.
Thus il will be seen that the will of
the people of Worcester county amount
ed TO nothing in comparison with the
political arguments used. The fact
that the Democratic candidates we're
elected by good safe najorities and
that Republican witnesses against
them we're guilty of perjury, did not
count. The able argument made by
counsel and the convincing evidence
produced by him, went in one ear and
out the other. Mr.. Smith said to the
Republican leaders that the Demo-
Gratis of Worcester had been fairly
elected and if they were turned out of
Office by the Republican Legislature
that he and his fellow Democratic
Senators would refuse to confirm the
officials appointed by Governor Lown-
DIES. The Republicans blufied but the
Senator'S showed they meant what they
said, and thus just cause was pro-
tected and the peoples verdict at the
polls last November prevented being
set aside. We are thankful that our
Senator held the key to the situation
and that he has prevented the rape of
justice ATTEMPTED by the Republicans
of this county. The Republicans
knew their candidates were defeated,
but when they learned that Repub-
lican Governor and Legislature had
been elected they calculated that a
contest was the proper thing and that
they could depend upon the Legisla.
ture to seat them. whether right or
wrong. Alas

The Democrats hold their offices to

IN Worcester County is stronger to-day
than it has been for years. The ac-
tons of the Republicans in this county
and in every part of the State have
convinced the people that the Demo
cratic party is the party of the people
and for the people, that they who
voted the Republican ticket last fall
made a mistake if they thought the
many promises made by its candidates
would be fulfilled. The Republicans
have shown themselves thoroughly in.

Treachery and assassination may be
tolerated in Spain, but the atmosphere
of freedom in America condemns for all
time those who in any way and for any
purpose make use of these agencies
which are horrible relics Of the days Of
the inquisition. Their introduction in
the Cuban war by Weyler, the butcher,
has aroused the indignation of the peo-
pie in this country TO high pitch.
Not since the first gun of the Civil
War sounded the tocsin Of the greatest
war of modern times has the war spirit
and feelings of national pride been 80
thoroughly wrought mp, as is now the
case. Spanish cruelty, insolence, bar
barity and total deprsvity shown in the
management of Spanish troops in Cuba
has been surprise to the civilized
world.
