Editor Mansfield, of Wayne, to
Locate in tile Capital City.
Hon. w. l. Mansfield, of the
Wayne News, is to assume editorial
charge of the Charleston Gazette.
The following is from the News OF
this week:
"For several weeks proposition
has been pending looking to my
taking charge of the Charleston
Daily Gazette as it's managing
editor. Those propositions have
been concluded and L will go to
Charleston at once to begin the du-
ties of the new position. My per
sonal associations with the people
of Wayne county from my infancy
and my business connections with
them as publisher of The Wayne
News for the last twelve years,
have forged ties that 1 rend with
great reluctance. Nothing but the
temptation of prospect of a broad
or field for my chosen profession,
would induce me to tear away
from tho old mornings. For the
present shall not relinquish my
residence here, but shall claim my
native county as my home until L
am satisfied beyond all doubt that
1 can better my condition by per-
manentIy locating elsewhere. I
have arranged with Mr.. Boyd
Jarrel to take charge of the Wayne
News, and 1 commend him to you
as one entirely worthy of your es-
teen, confidence and support"

BODIES oE VICTIMS MUTILATED.

Palmetto Ca, April 24.-The body OF
Lie Strickland, the negro implicated
by Sam Hose in the killing of Alfred
Crawford, was found swinging to the
limbs of n tree. about one mile from
town, at sunrise.
The ears and fingers were cut off,
and On the body was pinned a placard
bearing these words:
1--WE Must Protect Our Southern
Women"
Strickland was n negro minister, 60
years of age Sam Hose, just as the
torch was about, to be applied to the
pile of wood under him, near Newman
Sunday, admitted killing Alfred Gran
ford. but said that Strickland had
given him $12 to do the deed.
The confession of Hose caused great
excitement here, and crowd of men
left for the home of Major Thomas,
where Strickland works. and at dusk
took the negro from the place and
brought him into town.
Major Thomas made a speech to tn .
mob while they were on his farm, urg-
ing them not to take the negro, and
saying he believed the fellow was inno-
cent. The men would not listen to
them. He was brought into town and
taken to the public square, where an
impromptu trial was had. Everybody
who knew Strickland was called upon
to give testimony as to his character.
Several negroes employed by Colonel
Thomas said the negro was law-abid-
ing, and was not implicated in the
Crawford affair.
Ofhar naon1a 1it,ipry moan kho
place gave Strickland bad name.
There were several people in the crowd
who favored letting the law take its
course and suggested that the court
adjourn to another place one mile from
town, where several people lived who
knew Strickland.
This met with approval and the
court" moved out into the woods one
mile away. He was strung up two
or three times in an effort to get
confession from him, but each time he
refused to say that he had any connec-
ton with Hoses crime, and denied that
he had paid Hose to murder Crawford.
The crowd seemed to be evenly d.
vided regarding the guilt and inno-
cence of the negro, and after speech
making, which continued until day
light, it was decided to take the
preacher to Jail at Fairburn. This
was the last time the negro was seen
alive.
a couple of farmers coming to town
reported finding the body of Strickland
hanging from the limb of a tree and
shockingly mutiIated. The marshal
summoned two deputies. and entering
a spring wagon drove to the scene.
The body of Strickland was secured
and brought here. An inquest was held.

BRYAN ON EXPANSION.
Some Red Hot Comnents on the
situation That Exists and
is Growing Worse.

SYRACUSE, N. Y, April 2O.-The
Alhambra, with seating capacity
of 5000 people, was comfortably
filled with an enthusiastic crowd to-
night to hear Col. VIM. j. Bryan.
Mr.. Bryan on being introduced was
cheered to the echo. His address
covered old ground on the subject
of income tax and the currency.
Taking up the subject of expan-
sion Mr.. Bryan said,
A large standing army is bur-
den to taxpayers and menace to
the republic. This nation can de-
pend upon it's volunteers. They
can defend it in the hour of danger.
(Yociferous cheering,)
What has happened to make
more soldiers necessarily Nothing
but Republican administration,
The President says our occupation
of Cuba is temporary. There is no
trouble in Porto Rico. Seventy
thousand soldiers are wanted to
carry the benign blessings of free
dom to 100000 of Filipinos.
Who will pay the costP If the
Filipinos, they must be taxed four
times as high as Spain taxed them.
If we pay it, ask the gold man
how it will get back to the tax
payers. Common people furnish
soldiers and syndicates get the mon
ey paid for war. 1 don't want a
single soul to be brought under
the American flag unless he can
share in every blessing of this gov
ernment. (Applause.) Shall we
call our Chief Executive President
of the United States and Emperor
of the Philippines? Government
by one man backed by force is des-
potism. People who are opposed
to taking the Philippines plead not
for tho Filipinos, but for the Amer
lean people lest they may by be-
coming accustomed to despotism
be prepared to yield to despots.
To oppose Christianity fred out of
a gatling gun. The man who is
hit does not need the gospel. Does
the laboring man want Oriental
labor to compete with himP Every
nation in Europe wants us guilty of
conquest. If we are to become an
empire let us send Barthodi's stat
ute back to France and go to Eng
land and borrow statute of Will
liam the Conquerer. Let us treat
the Filipinos as we would the Gu
bans and we will erect in the har-
Dor of Manila a new statute of lib
erty in the old world.
