WELLs'S TEAM A GOOD ONE.
The Correspondents i'm Other Cities
Take on Their Hats to- Us.

Manager Wells has certainly gotten to-
gether the best ball club that Richmond
has ever had. The men are in good
shape. and just a trihe over anxious for
the season Of 1898 to open. They viii
only have to wait until tomorrow week,
and then tho fun starts in earnest.
The Bluebirds reported he-e in splendid
shape, and it was the result of Weiss
good judgment in taking the men away
Tor secret practice. A better place than
Charlotte could not have been selected.
and the men certainly were benefited by
the trip. They came home in good shape.
and FOR the first time IN the history OF
baseball here grand showing has been
made In the spring exhibition games.
TWO games were won from the Cham
pion Bostons. two from Augusta. and
Montreal lost two. and the showing
against Baltimore was all that any root
or could ask for.

A Northern exchange SAYS:

The murder by Sheriff Martin and his
deputies of peaceful citizens in Pcnnsyl-
vania. because they were laborers belong.
in, to the common herd, has been declared
lawful in g sovereign State of this Union
When this horrible assassination first oc'
CARED the statements of both parties were
published at length. which made It clear
that the shooting down Of the miners for
marching on the highway by an armed
force called deputies under Sheriff Martin
WAS cold blooded murder. but at the recent
trial creatures for the defense were found
to swear in effect that the deputies in shoot
ing the fleeing miners in the back were
acting strictly IN self-defense. Stories told
bv the aSsasSinatorS Immediately after the
occurrence, aud the testimony they trump
cd up at the trial, are Numerically op.
posed to each other. The shooting and
the acquittal are equally outrageous. and
both are disgrace to the State OF PennSyl-

WHO BLEW UP THE MAINE /!

The report of the court OF inquiry,
investigating the cause of the des-
truction of the battle ship Maine, has
been finished and is now on its way
to the President. At present the
public vii! not have an opportunity
OF seeing publication of the report
and what it is can only be surmised.
The only positive uncontradicted
information to have reached the pub
lie so far, is that the battle ship
Maine was blown up in Havana har-
Dor and that 253 brave souls were
launched into eternity. The press
dispatches quote Admiral Sicard as
saying last night:
The case of the Maincis most peculiar
perhaps the most peculiar which has ever
occurred in the history of the world.
Flom the general tone of his remarks II
might be inferred that the court hndlngs
do not definitely solve the mystery OF the
explosion. This is further borne out by
the Admiral's statemen: that even after the
report had been sent to Washington tue
department may require further lnveslga'
| ton.
The Manning times. [volume] (Manning, Clarendon County, S.C.) 1884-current, 1898-03-23

The prohibitionists are organizing
throughout the State and they pro-
pose to meet in convention and nom
mate u full State ticket. Suppose
they do nominate a ticket, how can
set of State officers enact prohibi-
tion law? We are very much inclin-
ed to the opinion, that this prohibi-
ton move is nothing more nor less
than new tack to promote the po-
litical aspirations OF a class of poll
ticians that, either failed otherwise,
or had no chance with either of two
factions that have been holding the
boards in the Democratic party in
this State.
1t does not need any argument TO
convince the people that the theory
of prohibition cannot be put to prac-
tical use, for if people want to drink
liquor they will drink it and all the
laws which may be enacted will not
stopit. The dispensary comes nearer
regulating the liquor traffic than any
thing yet tried, and now that it is
about to receive fair trial, here
comes another move to destroy it.
There are men connected with this
prohibition movement who are sim
cere, and are pushing it as religious
duty, but there are others who are
not probibitiouists, either by precept
or example and have only donned
the prohibition cloak TO further their
individual political interests, II
there is sincere desire to give pro-
hibition a trial, the place to make
fight for the cause is in the counties
when it comes to electing members
of the General Assembly, because if
the majority in the General Assembly
are opposed to prohibition no prohi-
bition law could be enacted, even if
every State officer from Governor
down to the Adjutant and Inspector
General were the most ardent teeto-
talers.

Charleston's Grand iurv has again

Charleston's grand jury has again
refused to find "true bills" against
blind tigers, and Chief OF Police
Boyle is determined to fulfill his oath
of Office. When Martin, the Reform
er, was chief, the excuse for not find
ing strue bills" was that Reformers
we're unworthy of belief. Now the
police administration is under a Con-
servative, and the jurors still ignore
their oaths. Major Boyle says that
every case he presented "was sustain
ed by creditable and sufficien. testi-
mony." Notwithstanding this, every
case was thrown out. Is it surpris-
ing? Not at all, for the jury COM
mission are hand-in-glove with those
who oppose the liquor law, and OF
course they will see to it that men
who regard their oaths are kept OH
the grand jury. The fact OF the mat
ter is that some of the grand jurors
are corner grocers" and ven Hans
runs Won grocery, de pisness Won't
pay widout Katrina; who sells del
peer il der pack room. There should
be something done, even in Charles,
ton, that will rid that city of the
spirit of lawlessness that exists. L
after the removal of the metropolitan
police, Charleston is determined tc
allow the macaroni eaters and Fritz
and Hans, Pat and Moike to rur
rough shod over law, the sooner the
State Legislature makes change il
the method of drawing juries in that
county the better. Blind tigers have
no more right in Charleston thar
elsewhere, and when an officer like
Chief Boyle admits his inability tc
bring offenders to justice on account
of packed grand juries, it is time
for the decent element of that city tc
come forward and ask to be relieved
from such oppression.
