OHIO RIVER AND CHARLESTON

Relative to the report that Messrs. j..
P. Morgan & Co. have been examining
the Ohio River and Charleston railroad
with a view of completing the gap be-
tween its sections in North Carolina and
Tennessee, The Manufacturers Record
has received letter from President Sam
uel Hunt, in which he says there is no
truth whatever in the statement.
1t is stated, however, by correspond
ent of The Manufacturers Record, that an
examination has been made of the right
of way by northern parties, who may take
up the matter independently of Messrs.
Morgan & Co. We learn from reliable
source that arrangements were made
sometime ago for railroad expert to ex-
anime the line of the Ohio River and
Charleston, and if favorable report was
made, the money would be furnished to
complete the system from the Ohio river
to Charleston. The Manufacturers Rec
ord correspondent states further that the
line would be built to Sumter, s. c., and
that it would form an outlet for large
tract of timber land, which has been ex-
amined with view of development.

- The interstate commerce committee
has favorably reported the bill which
Senator Tillman introduced on March
Is, with view to strengthening the dis
pensary law. The bill provides: "That
all fermented, distilled or other intoxica-
ting liquors or liquids transported into
any state or territory, or remaining there
in for use, consumption, sale or storage
therein. shall, upon arrival within the
limits of said state or territory, be subject
to the operation and effect of the laws OF
such state or territory to the same extent
and in the same manner as though such
liquors or liquids had been produced in
such state or territory, and shall not be
exempt therefrom by reason Of being in
troduced therein in original packages for
private use or otherwise, and such states
shall have absolute control of such liquors
or liquids within their borders, by
whomsoever produced and for whatever
use imported; provided, that nothing
herein contained shall be construed aS
affecting the internal revenue laws of the
United States or liquors in transit"
That this bill would, in great measure,
carry out its object, should it become Il
law, there is not much question. 1t
would, of course, still leave open the
contention that a state has no right to
engage i'm business to the exclusion of its
own citizens. But however this may be,

CASE OF JAGGERS,

The case of Charles Jaggers, charged
with the murder of Robert Owens, was
tried in Gaffney last week.
The testimony showed that Owens was
dressing. There were two pistols on a
bed beside him. Jaggers picked up the
pistols and pointed them at Owens.
Owens said something to indicate that
Jaggers was only bluff in whom there
was no danger, whereupon Jaggers fired.
Owens said "you have killed me" Jag
gers said "I hope not" There was moth
ing in the testimony to indicate malice |;
but all the facts seemed to point to very
great carelessmess.
After due deliberation, the jury return
ed verdict of ''guilty of manslaughter,
with recommendation to the mercy of the
court" and Jaggers was sentenced to the
penitentiary at hard labor for the term OF
two years and eight months.

At a recent meeting Of the Ohio Bap'
tist convention, one of the ministers
scored John D. Rockefeller, the head OF
the Standard Oil trust, on account of the
manner in which he is bleeding the peo'
pie as to the price of oil, and offered con-
resolutions. Other ministers
referred to the princely donations thai
Mr.. Rockefeller had made to the Chicago
university and other religious and educa'
tional institutions, and the resolutions
failed of passage. The minister who
spoke against Mr.. Rockefeller spoke OF
his contributions as mere sops to dis
tract the attention of the church from his
methods.

scribed in the book haye been found,
people have dug down and found, in de-
tail, that the cities were just as they are
described to have been."
"Well, what do you fellows think of US
folks who do not believe all that; but
have beliefs that are entirely different ?"
asked the reporter.
"You mean what do we think of other
Christian denominations?
"Yes, you may answer it that way"
"Well, we think that any man or any
church which believes in Jesus Christ,
and works for the upraising of humanity,
will receive due reward. All the de-
nominations do good-some more and
some less but we think that we have the
nearest perfect church on earth, and that
the plan of salvation as laid down by us
is the most complete. But, of course, we
recognize that the members Of each and
every other church think the same thing,
for if any man thought that there was
another church more perfect than the one
to which he belonged, you know he
would not remain in the less perfect
church."
"Well, changing the subject little
what is your object in this country; are
you trying to organize churches or are
you sending your converts to Utah? ?"
"There was time when we sent the
saints to Utah. That, however, was whei
there was more intolerance than there is
now. Now we tell them to stay here
for there is no danger that they will be
molested. God is spirit who is every
where and can be worshipped as we'll here
as in Utah. But we are not out after con-
verts especially. We are only here trying
to give true idea of our beliefs-to lei
the people know what Mormonism really
is. We are trying to overcome some o.
that prejudice which naturally exists
among people who do not understand oul
creed"
"Well, suppose you cannot get house
to preach IMP"
"Surely we will be able to get house
but if not, the gospel of Jesus Christ is
not too good to be preached from the
streets. Better men than we are have
preached it out of DOORS"
Before leaving, Elder Chamberlain said
that the Mormons had been actively at
work in this state for something like two
years, and at the present time there are as
many as "a missionaries here. 1--WE have
in this state six church organizations,
and near Blacksburg, in Cherokee coun-
ty, we have Sunday sch ool with 40 pu-
pills"
The reporter mentioned to him the fact
that Mormons had been "whitecapped" in
this county within the past ten years /;
but at this he expressed no special con-
Germ, further than to say that he believed
that the country had grown more enlight-
ened since then, and that those who did
not care to listen to Mormonism would,
at least, not seek to interfere with those
who might have desire to do otherwise.

That John Wannamaker, former post
master general and the great merchant
prince of America, should at last be
coming to his senses, is not at all surpris'
ing. John is shrewd business man, as
every one will cheerfully admit, and
when he surveys his great piles of goods
daily depreciating in value on account OF
a contracting currency, there is no won
der that he should raise his voice in favor
of currency system that would ensure
more stability.
