Two Indians reached jackson last
week from Leafe county. They came
to ask the aid and assistance Of Gov.
MeLanrin, Their names are Rainbow
and Willie they belong to the ehoetaw
tribe, IL seems that Rainbow owns q
piece Of land in Leake county which a
negro is about to take from him. Rains
bow knows nothing Of title and terms
Of that kind, and il seemed to him that
the best thing to do would be to see the
governor and have him have the inter.
meddling negro decapitated at once.
To their immense disgust the executive
could DO nothing Both these Indians
were in the little war that the Indians
had near Carthage some time ago. They
were mixed up Ia the ball play and
candidly acknowledge the fact. When
the question as to how many were
killed Ia chat memorable little serims
mage was put, they said that not more
chan six or seven were killed Special

OUR STATE POLITICS.

Uneasy lies the head that wears
crown, is truism which might, with
equal force be applied to the head OF
our own political organism. The
chief executive OF any State, has at
best, if he performs his duty indepen-
dent Of politicians, and solely in the
peoples interest, q rough and stumpy
road to travel; this is SO in the course
OF a routine administration, but when
extraordinary events occur as have
occurred in South Carolina since the
inauguration of ". H. EIlerbe, then
the head of the government in whom
is vested the appointing power is in
deed the mark for greed, disappoint-
ment and spleen.
In political experience OF nearly
quarter OF a century, we have never
seen such State of affairs as exist
today. We have passed through,
and participated in the memorable
struggle Of 1876, and was among
those who risked our all-Lite and
our Liberty for the welfare of tie
State. Hampton took hold OF the
government and brought order out
of chaos, necessarily, he had q great
many appointments to make, but the
fires of patriotism were still burning
in the hearts OF the people and his
appointments were received without
comment. This was a happy condi-
ton, but after the reign OF Hampton
spirit of unrest began and occa-
sionally murmurings could be heard
until convention in 1880 took a
snap judgment and nominated tick
ct; from that time on the murmur-
ings became more frequent until IN

The American arms are triumphant.
The Spanish arms although defeated,
have won the admiration OF the world
for their bravery. No soldiers ever

Spaniards i.ave been driven from
their entrepchments, and Tie heights
around Santiago, and those positions
are occupied now by Ame,icans, but
the greatest cause for Ill rejoicing, is
the capture OF Admiral Covera and
the destruction OF his Acct. Admiral

cluding Admiral Ccrvera. The nan killed
was George H. Ellis, chief yoomaa OF the

Every American feels that the 1920
anniversary OF the nations birth has
been greatly and wonderfully cele-
brated. The world stands amazed
at the success of American valor on
land and on sea. Shafter has forced
the surrender of Santiago, and on to
Havana will be tie cry. The t'Yan
kee Pigs" will soon have possession
of the Cuban capitol and cold glory"
will be waving from Moro Castle.
Our bands will be marching through
the streets OF Havana playing "Iankee
Doodle" and "Dixie" and Spain will
plead for mercy. Cevera made a
desperate dash to escape from San
tiago and had gotten sixty miles away
before he was overtaken and captur-
ed. He escaped to the shore and
surrendered himself to Lieut.. Morton,
who took him on board the Glouces-
ter. The Spanish Admiral was
wounded and Lieutenant Comman-
der Wainwright in receiving him
said, Il congratulate you, sir, upon
having made as gallant a fight as was
ever witnessed on the sea-" and then
he placed bis cabin at the disposal
Of the captured Admiral. This was
indeed a meeting OF two brave and
generous souls. The news from the
land forces are not marred b. rever-
ses; We lose men but not in compari-
son with the losses Of the other side

Our view OF the matter is not to
drag the question into politics, but
build up sentiment against the vio-
lation of the law, teach the people,
it is not only their duty, but to their
interests to uphold the law, and when
that is done there may be good
chance to enforce prohibition. Let
Us give the dispensary a fair tria! and
should it not, now that all obstacles
are removed, prove !; good temper
ance measure, we can be counted on
to help in any cause which will pro-
mote temperance.

plicitv. This was the scurviest trick in
his whole harangue, e,and it was done to
place us in false light; we endeav-
ored to ge5 him to correct the state
ment and at first he would lot; evi-
dently be wanted the people to go
home with q lie burning in their
minds, but after much insisting and
persistence on our part, he eventually
admitted the letter was not from US.
Colonel Watson, poses as pious
christian gentleman, but if his per-
formance in Manning did not show
him up to be tricky politician and
willing to resort to questionable meth
DDS to carry a point, then we are in
competant to Judge. His play for
sympathy was grand effort, but he
overdid it ard it will prove boom
erang. He stood up here and tolc
his hearers that be had not been prop
erly received; that it was after nine
o'clock before he secured a place to
sleep, and he seemed to hold us re-
sponsible for it: naturally we felt that
something was wrong, and on inquiry
we were astonished to learn from
some of the campaign party and one
of the members of the county execu-
tive committee that Colonel Watson
had most outrageously and wit b bare
faced hypocrisy misrepresented the
facts. He arrived on the afternoon
train with the party, registered at the
Central hotel and in less than half an
hour after his arrival he boastingly
invited several OF the candidates. to
his room to show them how fortunate
he had been to secure what he told
candidates Shumpert, and Epton, and
Mr.. E. D. Hodge and others, was the
best room in tie house-''the bridal
chamber. y
This miserable deception was cal
cnlafed to. and did win sympathy for
him, but the Misrepresentation was
only one OF his tricks to catch votes.
When the people, however, are put
in possession of the facts and their
eyes are opened, it gives them a clear
insight INTO the true character Of the
man who has the indecent efrontery
to charge others with being political
tricksters. :"
Right here we wish to say, while
Colonel Watson was properly enter
tained--possibly not SO we'll wined
and dined as he was at the New Eng
land society dinner in Charleston,
when he and Major Hemphill OF the
News and Courier were guests Of
honor-but he received as good at
tention as very reputable hotel
could afford, but it is a source of
deep modification to admit that, by
some misunderstanding or lack of
arrangement, several of the candi-
dates found some difficulty in secur-
ing homes, although we are informed
that at one of the hotels entertain
ment was provided for number
which did not take advantage of it.
Individually the editor had at his
house some of the gentlemen as his
guests, and we had every reason to
expect that ample arrangements were
made at the two hotels for those who
were not privately entertained. We
sincerely regret and feel mortified
that any strangers should enter our
gates and have cause to complain for
lack of attention, but as far as Col
onel Watson is concerned, he had no
right to complain, and in order to
make a political hit, be dagrantly and
with meanness misrepresented the
facts

Police Court Notes

The battery trial of Mrs. A. Marion was
continued yesterday by Justice Morrison
to be reset. Mrs. Marion is accused of strik-
ing Sister of Mercy.
Justice Morrison found w. H. Hart, the
teamster, guilty of battery upon Henry
Herold and fined him $40, which he paid.
Justice Morrison found Charles, Salvini
guilty of petty larceny and will sentence
him today. Salvini stole bicycle belonging
to A. Roberts, from the rear of Maier's
butcher shop. He claimed that mysteri-
GUS man named "Frenchy" had given him
the wheel, but "Frenchy' could not be
found by the officers, so Salvini was ad-
judged guilty.
The case against Charles Thomas.
charged with assault to kill upon H. Han
sen, was continued until December 9th for
examination by Justice Owens, as Hansen
is still i'll from the effects of Thomas al
legged attack.
Wong Kay, the Chinese who defaulted at
his trial on the charge of battery, was ar
rested and taken before Justice Owens yes
terday. Wong was released upon $50 cash
bail and the case went over until this after
noon at 2 o'clock.
