T., 1894. Mr.. Bryan said: Il only desire
to say, Mr.. Speaker, thai this resolu-
ton ought to pass. 1t Is simply to in
vestigate whether there has been any
violation OF the federal constitution or
laws by the action of these men. I be-
lieve in law and order, but I believe
that the law and order should be main
tanned by the lawful authorities. and
not by the private armies. Govern
ments are organized to protect life and
property. These functions should not
be transferred to private individuals
and hired detectives until we are ready
to acknowledge government a failure.
1T is not fair to compel corporations
to protect their property in his way.
nor is it right that the safety and ever
life OF the citizen shall be imperiled bv
a private and irresponsible soldiery.
Let public order be preserved by

eral Birney is the son Of James G..
Birney, who was twice the candidate
of the Ab~olitionist party for president
Of the United States. In the letter
which he has addressed to Chairman
Campau, of the national Democratic
campaign committee, he says:

HOW WE BUILD
VEHICLES.

Now in building of Buggies We'll tell you
what,
There is always somewhere a weakest
spot
In hub, tire, felloe, in spring or thill,
In panel or crossbar, or floor or sill,
In screw, bolt, thoroughbrace, lurking
still,
Find it somewhere, you must and will
Above or below, within or without
And that's the reason beyond doubt,
That a buggy breaks down but doesn't
wear out.
We build our vehicles to beat the town
And county and all the country "roun,"
And we build them so that they "kaint"
break down.
For as you all know it's mighty plain,
That the weakest piece must stand the
strain,
And the way to fix it, as we maintain,
Is only '.jest"
To make that place as strong as the rest.
We use the strongest hickory and oak
That can't be split, nor hent, nor broke,
Step and prop iron, bolt and screw,
Spring, tire, axle and fifth wheel too,
OF steel of the finest, bright and blue,
Crossbars of ash from the straightest trees,
Panels of poplar that cuts like cheese,
But lasts like iron for things like these.
Thoroughbred, BULBS hide, thick and
wide.
Boot, top, dasher, from tough old hide,
Found in the pit when the tanner died.
This is the way, we put "'em" through,
And now good friends don't you think

Correspondence Of the Yorkville Enquirer.
HICKORY GROVE, January ia band
of whitecaps, or rather blackcaps- it is
supposed they were colored-made raid
hast Saturday night on Ed Pinchenback,
colored, who lives OH lands belonging to
the estate of J. s. R. Thomson, in this
neighborhood. Ed made his escape
through a window, and as he is swift
afoot, his would-be assailants failed to
get their hands on him. By the way, /
am reminded that through this instance,
we came pretty near having test of the
provision of the new constitution which
imposes fine on the people OF the county
in the case of lynchings. Had the Negro
been regulated, don't believe that it
would have been long before somebody
would put in his head the fact that the
incident offered the opportunity of his
life in getting big damages from the
county. Then the white people Of this
section would have no doubt turned their
attention to the cowardly whitecappers,
and made them pay dearly for their fun
by prosecuting them to the full extent OF
the law. The whole thing suggests that
we have laws in this country for the
punishment of crime, and if a man.
whether white or colored, is guilty of any
criminal offense against the law, it is
better to leave his punishment to the
courts.
