TIE Indictment of Governor Tanner.


TIE Indictment of Governor Tanner.
Those who have been watching the sit
uation closely, will be pleased to learn
that there is a probability of Governor
Tanner, OF Illinois, being compelled to
answer to jury for his outrageous neg
lect and foolish braggadOcio of October
last, in reference to the Pana and Nir-
den riots. He has been indicted by the
grand jury of MacOupin county for Grim
inal omission of duty and malfeasance
in office.
The bare facts in the case are these:
The coal mines at Nirden, ILL.,, had
been shut down al the summer and fall
because the operatives and mine owners
were unable to agree upon a scale OF
wages. The latter announced their in
tention of importing negro miners from
Alabama to fill the vacancies caused by
the strike, and Immediately the white
men in Virden began to prepare to repel
any such invasion as this. Fully 1000
of them were collected ready for desper-
ate work of any character. and a child
could have fOrcseen trouble. The sherif
of NacOupin county notified Governor
Tanner OF these facts, and explaining
that the local authorities were not strong
enough to act in the matter, asked for
military protection. The governor calm
ly replied that if the owners imported
men to work the mines, they knew they
were doing it at the risk of blOOdshed,
and refused to take any action until the
peace had actually been violated. On
the 18th Of October a train brought in a
load Of Alabama miners to take the place
of the strikers and a pitched battle, in
which twelve were killed and twenty
four disabled, ensued
The next day the governor defended
his action by calling the importation OF
miners "an invasion into the state" and
declaring that should it occur again he
would meet the train at the state line
with gatling guns and cut it to pieces.
This reckless speech was severely con-
demned in nearly every paper of the
United States, and the grand jury of
MacOupin county, in which Virden is
situated. and which had. therefore. suf
fered most from the governors criminal
negligence. determined to try the efficacy
of the law to bring the chief executive
to his senses. The statute under which
he is indicted, reads as follows:
Whenever there is in any city. town or
CO.. MY timult riot mob or body of mon
acting together ny force with attempt to
commit q felony or to offer violence to per
snMs or property or by force or violence to

they continue in the performance of the
duties incumbent upon citizenship. It
is only the agitatOrs and the disturber5
who create trouble. The sooner the
colored race learns to drop the anxious
politicians and educated place-hunt-
ers, the better it will be for it.
Drop the politicians, and go to work.

Country or ToWnp

Country or Townp
4 correspondent who writes from the
experiment station OF Lake City. Fla,
wants to know whether it is best to live
in the city or in the country.
The inquiry is one calculated to rouse
a long train of speculation. The an
sWer to it depends on so many condl-
tions, circumstances, probabilities and
possibilities that even a suggestion is
likely to create wrong Impressions; and
even the inquiry resolves itself into n
vague question which may mean much
or little.
We have observed that when a man
who has been raised in the country
comes TO town and succeeds in winning
a competency from the hand OF tickle
fortune. all his desires turn toward the
country again. He remembers the hap
DIV days on the old farm. They seemed
hard days al the time. but whom light
fingered memory begins to spin her web
she has the knack Of cmbroidoring and
gliding the hardships of youth until they
appear to be the happiost experiences
Of life And so, as VIC grow older, we
long more and more for the scenes Of
our early days, or for surroundings
that viii be perpetual reminder.

SIGNING of the Peace Treaty.


permits The Constitution TO publish, for
the FIRST time, in connection with the announce
ment of the approaching Peace Jubilee festivi-
ties to occur in Atlanta this week, the news of
the signing OF the Peace treaty in Paris.
Through this historic document Spain
has signed away the last yestige of her
great American empire which, at one
time, covered the best part of the north
ern as well as all OF the southern conti-
nent. 1t must have been through a
strong exhibition of patriotism and an
exalted sense Of exploration that Spain
first undertook the gigantic task which
gave to the world two new continents
and out OF which have grown empires
which are to control the nations Of the
earth through an indefinite period. The
history of that exploration and ihe
building up of her colonies contains
many records Of noble doinss which have
been too often lost sight of by those
whose interests ran in another direction.
But whatever of good Or i'll there was in
Spanish domination upon this continent
is now at an end, and the United states
and Spain have reached q position where
the past should be buried and the fu-
ture should be entered upon with cOur-
age and determination to work out their
respective destinics in the history Of the
future
With the United States there are no
ranking hatreds or jealousies to stand
in the way of perfect harmony \ busy
nation has no time to lose with bicker-
ings and discomfort. 1t is on the as
ccnding plane. and is looking forward
rather than backward. The great destiny
which is now marked out for the United
States is sufficient to cngross all its
time and to take up its greatest ener-
pies. In the career upon which We are
entering we do so with kindly feelings
toward all the world, and toward no
country more particularly than to Spain.
We recognize in that country the great
pioneer Of American discovery. We rec
ognize in her race a people devoted to
national pride and warmly attached to
the institutions of their fathers, We
extend to them the hand of fraternity,
remembering nothing of i'll which may
have passed, and fun Of solicitation for
the future welfare Of this gallant people.
Daring the great Juhilea Of Peace
which mast. upoa this day, be as sin
cprely felt by tie people of Spain as it
is by those of the United States, Spain
has reasons Of her own for rejoicing. 1t

the party inquired, Ito what command
do you belong?" I responded, there
are four of you and three of US, tell us
to what command you belong" There
was a pause and no reply. We
realized the time had come to assume the
offensive. and calling to them. said Il
will meet any one of you" Again there
was indecision on their part, each ap-
pearing to desire his fellow to accept the
challenge. After a short colloquy a big

mounted on light grey horse. rode for.
ward to meet me, as I moved towards
him. Mason and Henderson were eau,
toned to rush to my help as soon as
fred. was assured they were Yankees,
and acted accordingly. But there seemed
to be still alingering doubt in their minds
as to our identity. We neared each other
until our horses heads met, both nerved
to the highest tension, when my antagonist
again inquired g to what command do you
belong?' His pistol was in his hand, un-
der his coat-cape, cooked and ready. So
was mine. Realizing the truth would give
him the advantage, 1 replied to the in
quiry, First New York Cavalry" That
regiment was camped near Berryville.-
The same inquiry was propounded to him
and he responded TwelfthPennsylva
Cavalry" Just then, raising my pistol
rapidly, 1 fired. saw the bullet had
struck but not seriously wounded my foe.
His pistol was discharged from under his
cape, and he turned and fed. His COM
rades, seeing the discontinue of their
leader, turned and fled also, and Mason
and Henderson coming to my aid we
pursued the four nearly to Myerstown,
but their horses being too swift for us,
they escaped. A few days afterwards we
learned from some parties in Kablctown
that my first shot took effect in the right
shoulder. This no doubt had prevented
the raising of his pistol and possibly
saved me.
Was it justifable to tell story under
these circumstances? My opponent told
the truth and it served him badly. Abra-
ham, when in danger on account of the
beauty of his wife, said she ismy sister. -

quent resort. In fighting an enemy VIC
have the same right to fight with the
tongue as the sword. If in war killing is
justifable homicide, certainly lying is
justifable falsehood. Is not feint a
falsehood? Lee and Jackson misled the
enemy by feints. However, on this oc-
casion, there was no time to consider the
ethics of the case; was assured that a
falsehood would be to my benefit, and
did not hesitate to avail myself of it, and
judged rightly, as my opponent immedi-
ately relaxed his vigilance, advantage
was taken of it and first shot obtained.
Our little fracas caused considerable
commotion in the neighborhood and we
rested on our laurels that night with a
widow lady near by, who showed us no
little kindness" She had visiting her at
the time niece from New York. In the
