SOME MORE "MALIGNITY."

The Greenulle Democrat is per-
fcctly iustifable in its "thankIess
task of apologising for the gov
crnor and the levee board. The
fidelity with which the McLaurin
Gang hang together is worthy Of
a better cause. Scratch my back
and I'll scratch yourn," is their
appropriate and characteristic
motto.
The whole history of McLour-
inism in this state has been one
grand sweet apology. The gov
ernor madea speech at HazlehUrst
ON Monday in which he told Why
he had done everything he ought
not to have done, and only neg
lccted to apologize for his habit Of
eating greens with Il knife. In
that ebullition he explained his ac-
ton in regard to the Ieyee board
of this district in almost the same
words used by the writer Of the
article in the Democrat. The feel
1ngs of the board, the Democrat,
and the governor appear to be
much wounded by the course Of
The TINES and the ungrateful
public who are cIamoring for dirt
on the levees instead Of revenue
in the ever-yawning Golfers Of the
board and the constant increase of
the 'happy family The TIMES
has charged nothing worse than
utter incompetency, unblushng
nepotism, and Il pettish and spite
ful factional spirit. If it is 'ma-
Lightly" to bewail the fact that the |
district is about to be swamped
because the levee board attorneys |
can't protect the board against
superior skill; because it costs two
or three times as much as the |
amount raised 10 pay the salaries
of cotton weighers; because the
office books of the board are a
Chinese puzzle, and because it
won't be long before the whole
amount Of revenue raised is insult
iicient to pay the office expenses
and suits for damages brought
against the oard;-then we are
afraid the Democrat will have to
make the best of it.

The Bird Flown

On Thursday night c. w. Hunt
ley and his cellmate, Winston
Hall, having in some mysterious
way obtained pistols, compelled
their jailor to open the doors and
turn them loose. The community
was struck with establishment
when the escape was made public
next morning. The career of
Huntley is still fresh in the public
mind, and small sympathy has
been wasted on him. HIS daring
escape from justice may be only
temporary for no effort will be
spared to apprehend him; in which
event there will be more DISPOSE
ton than ever to give him short
shrift for the crimes at his door.
Elsewhere appears the offer of re-
wards by Sheriff Hebron for the
capture Of the two criminals, and
it is the wish Of all good citizens
that this audaclous defiance of the
laws may be promptly and prop
erly punished.
There is, Of course, no clue to
the accomplices Of Huntley in his
but there is no doub. that
he was furnished with welpops
from outside, and probably Lad
the assistance Of active and cara
bic friends in making good his -es- I

Great tribulation exists among
hou5exeepers on account of the APP
parent impossibiIlty of obtaining
suitable servants. The town is
thronged with negroes who usually
make their living as domestic
servants, but neither persuasion or
pay will prevail upon them to hire.
The problem has become very
serious, and it is beginning to be
generally believed that a secret
league exists among them to boy
colt the white people. The usual
answer received by the white
housek9eper in her trips through
Newtown in search of cook or
washerwoman is like the follow
ing: ~ don't work for white
people, or 'My husband sup
ports me, l amt hirin' = Some
times tho experience is quite in

met two likely looking" coIored
women On the street and accosted

women said to the other with
acoruful laugh Law, Miss /
Brown, lid you hear that white /
woman ask YOU if You wanted to
