Yellow Fever at Santiago.

Santiago de Cuba. June 2S.-seven new
cases of yellow fever were reported yes
terday, and today the same number of
cases developed. There was one death
from the disease today. Thus far since
the outbreak of the epidemic there have
been fifty cases and twelve deaths The
troops who are encamped on the Moro
road, south of the city, are entirely
healthy. There has not been so much as
a suspicious case of sickness among them
for sixty hours. All the new cases have
been from the soldiers who are in camp
near the barracks. In the city proper there
have been no new cases.

According to recent decision OF
the State Supreme Court, e county
where a lynchiug takes place is re-
sponsible to the relatives of the party
lynched in an amount of two thou
sand dollars, thus making it too ex-
pensive to take the law out of its reg
ular channels. Lynchipg ought to be
stopped, and we believe when the
taxpayers find that to take the law
INTO their own bands, it means addi-
tional taxes to come out of their pock-
cts, they will permit the law to take
its course. What we cannot un-
derstand, is how verdict will be OBJ
tained against county where there
has been q lynching. II man is
lyncbed in county, it is not at all
likely that the Jurors will render a
verdict Or Judgment against them
selves, and we presume, before the
representatives of the party lynched,
can secure a judgment against conn-
ty, the case will have to be tried be-
fore jury and probably before a
jury and who engaged in the lynch
ing. The intention ofthe law is good
but it appears to US, unless there is
some Legislation to remedy the de-
feet, the law is a nullity.

between the defendants and the "pun-

between the defendants and the pun
ishment provided by law" and We do
not think our contemporary is doing
the Jury and the white men of the
State Justice when it so proclaims to
the world. Was there any room for
a reasonable doubt as to the guilt OF
the parties charged? 1t only needs a
reading Of the conflicting testimony
to convince one of this. We admit
that some of the witnesses for the de-
tense did not show up we'll, but when
it is considered that some OF the gov
ernment's witnesses showed up badly
also, it strikes US that jury could
conscientiously do just what was
done-fail to agree, because some
would be convinced of guilt; others
would have an honest doubt and mis-
trial must follow.

Editor The TINES:

Editor IHE lines:
Please allow me space for a few
words about the Tiinrod Revival.
An association has been formed which
has in view two-fold purpose-first,
to collect into one volume all of the
poems of Henry Timrod. and Sec
ond, to erect to the memory of the
poet u monument in keeping with
the genius which shone forth in
verse, whose excellence has excited
the admiration of the brightest stars
in the literary armament. An unfor-
tunate combination of events has
obscured the fame of South Caro-
lina's greatest poet. and although
late in coming, this effort on the part
of the men composing the association
is most praiseworthy. Such men as
James H. Carlisle, w. n. Grier, F. c.
Woodward. Asbury Coward, D. B.
johnson, VIM. A, Courtney and a
score of others of equal eminence,
have pledged the money to bring
out this edition; the low price will
place it within the reach of almost
everyone. 1t is an elegantly bound
book, and contains poems by Timrod
which have never before been pub
lished. The book is now ready to be
delivered
Every cent of profit realized by the
sale of the book will go to the Tim
rod memorial fund, and every one
who purchases copy will contribute
to this fund.
Now, as agent for this book in
Clarendon county, appeal to it's in
telligent reading men and women to
aid in this worthy cause. Not for
myself do make this appeal, bat for
the sake of our dead poet whose
genius demands this tardy recogni-
ton. To this end I ask the aid of the
Manning Literary Club of Manning,
which must be in sympathy with this
cause. and to every citizen Of Claren-
don who would aid in perpetuating
the memory of Henry Timrod.

OUR BOYS ARE HOME.

The Second Regiment has been
mustered out OF service and the men
have put down their hrag- g-Jorgensons
and their swords to take hold of the
plow handles, or the pen. They had
no opportunity to show their mettle,
because when mustered IN, the Span
ish-American war was virtually over,
fighting lad ceased. We have no
doubt that this was disappointment
to the men, especially those who ap-
piled for enlistment at the frt call for
volunteers. As it was, the months Of
soldering was a valuable experience
to many of the men, and the effect Of
the service will follow them tLl rough
life. Those who went from this Sec
ton came back looking bright and
happy with much to relate to their
kin and friends, but we have yet to
hear one of them say they would vol
unteer again if another call should be
made; they seem to have had a suf
fciency of monotouous garrison
life, but had they experienced one or
two battles, from what old soldiers
tell US, there would be fascination
about it, that would have made the
men feel altogether different. We are
glad the soldiers are home again, and
we hope their experience will be Of
value to them.

savagery is so sickening and revolt
ing that they do not deserve any SYM

by Hose will not wait for the slow pro-

under such circumstances but 1T the

reason enough in q ci7il;xed land to
nete out the punishment in a civil
lied manner. The sheriff who turned
the prisoner over possibly could not

Washington Letter.
(From our Regular Correspondent }

@S---
Washington, April 21.-The Nc
Kinleyites are jubilant because their
bluff intended to drive Car Reed out
of Congress has succeeded, and Reed
has accepted an offer to join New
York law firm. This means new
deal all around in the House and a
general shaking up of the desirable
chairmanships, many of which were
held in the last House BY men who
were no more subservient to the ad-
ministration than Reed himself was.
All this will be changed in the organ
ization Of the present House, if pres
ent plans OF the administration can
be carried out, and no man will get
anything desirable in the way of a
chairmanship who does not wear the
Mckinley collar There are about a
dozen Republicans who consider
themselves candidates for Speaker of
the House; but they are wasting
their time. The Speaker and all the
important chairmanships of commit
tees will be selected by Boss Hanna
and Mr.. Mckinley and all the Repub-
lican caucus will have to do will be to
ratify the selections. There will, OF
course, be Republican objection to
this programme, but without
stronger leadership than it is likely
to have, it will not be able to change
ii. A friend of Mr.. Reed says that
be intends as farewell shot at the
administration to take a hand in the
election of his successor. If he only
would, there would be a lively scrap,
but as his law firm is to make spe-
cialty OF corporation practice his part
ners will doubtless be able to con-
yinca him thot he cannot afford fo
