spectators, representatives of the
leading citizens of Shreveport.
They came there from no idle GU
riosity. The writer knows that
many came there to show their
sympathy for the accused.
AS stated before the writer is
necessarily partial to the side Of
the accused; but it is equally SO
that he knows him better than any
one else, and therefore believes
implicitly Mr.. Abbott's story that
he acted in self-defense.
AS to the rumors about a pre-
vious difficulty and his having
weapon with him at the time ofithe
affair; these can be satisfactorily
explained to any fair-minded per-
son and will be to jury-if one is
ever empannelled in the case. Mr..
Abbott does not make a practice
of carrying a concealed weapon.
Our editor therefore asks his friends
to come to han, for ali explanation
of the unfortunate, yet unavoida-
BILE affair. This is but fair; no one
can deny this.
Our paper returns thanks to the
Evening Journal and Morning
Times for the journalistic solicit
tude and fraternal courtesy dis
played in dealing with this deplor-
able, but necessary affair.
It likewise returns sincere thanks
to Col. John S. Young, sheriff,
Col. S. j. Ward, chief deputy, and
the other deputies for their courte-
sizes rendered on this occasion

HOMICIDE.
Mr.. s. Il. Abbott Uses n Revolver in
Self Defense.

These head lines are used advis-
edly. They were selected because
they speak the truth; they define
the nature of the occurrence.
OF course we deplor, the fact
that it became necessary for our
Mr.. S. T. Abbott to kill the negro,
Moses Starks; but it was done to
save his own life, attempted with
uncalled for, unwarranted impu-
dence, on the part of his negro as
sailant.
The Progress seldom says any
thing against the dead. 1t never
does except in righteous defense
of the living. And thus in this
case, Moses Starks once very
impudent and presumptuous ne
gro, is now dead because of his
insulting disposition, tc which
was added an attempt to kill Mr..
S. T. Abbott, one of the publish
ers of The Progress.
OF course it is natural for our
editor to be partial to the cause OF
his business associate; but the
facts bear out our statement that
the homicide which cost Starks his
life, was due to the negro's own
insolent disposition; his attempt
to voluntarily pick a fuss with and
beat, bruise and kill a white gen.
tleman.
In stating that the case was one
self-defense we mean no reflection
on Judge A D. Land. We believe
it is we'll known that the writer has
high opinion of that jurist. He
has confidence in his honesty, in
tegrity and legal ability. But it
is possible for such men to err and
when they do, they err greatly.
And we think this is the position
of Judge Land in the present case.
There were no witnesses to the
transactions. Only the testimony
of the defendant himself was all
there was bearing directly on the
case. All the other was purely
circumstantial. And yet the Judge
bound him over to await the action
of the grand jury. OF course the
Judge thought he was doing right,
but a large number Of people think
it was an egregrious error of judg-
ment, especially in setting the
bond at 5000. One half that sum
would have been large amount
for such u case.
OF course no jury will convict.
That is a foregone conclusion.
And when the trial comes Off it
will be proven how extremely Of
fensive Starks has been to white
gentlemen in our city, and even to
ladies'. 1t will also be proven that
a sigh of relief went out from more
