The Pinckney murder in Charles
ton so shocked the entire country
that the newspapers everywhere have
expressed their opinions, and there
are none outside of Charleston bue
what believe the unfortunate Pinck-
ney was murdered by parties well
known to the inmates of the Bardin
house. In a communication from
Charleston in the Western North Car
DINA Times, published at Henderson
vile, under date of April 7th, the cor
respondent says that during the in
vestigation before the grand jury, "a
juror is said to have told Miss Rad
clife that everybody at the Bardin
house on the night OF the killing
should have been put in jail at once"
"Well, now, you just try that on
me, replied Miss Radcliffe, in fiery
tone, 'and you will get more lead in
you than was poured into poor
Thomas Pinckney."
This statement from the young
woman who was guest at the home
of the Bardins, and who has figured
in other scandals with Miss BardiD,
caused the Juror to turn red and the
questioning took another turn.

nation from him, he will be at their
service, and will render such an ac-
count OF his stewardship that the
shameless crowd who have resorted
to every conceivable plan to injure
him will hide their heads and steal
away, like they have always done when
McLaurin faced bis accussers.
Gen. Butler in our opinion would
scorn to permit his name to be used
against McLa urin, the two have al
ways been warm friends, and the on
ly inducement Butler would have to
re-enter politics, would be to defeat
Ti.lman who defeated him, and whose
public policy he has always oppos-
ed.

ll is Lue OplulOu VI tue AtIOAHey
General that county treasurers have
no right to pay the warrants drawn
by the trustees for the school charts
and maps, and if this opinion had
been given earlier there would have
been a great saving Of money. The
States law department says the fact
of the warrants being in the hands OF
third parties does not make any diff
ference, that the warrants are illegal
and the county is not liable. But to
show what kind of concern was per-
mitted to do business in this State,
we find that they are attempting to
come back to introduce ''school IL
braries." The concern is the B. 0.
Evans Company, and in writing to
tue State Board they claim they have
practically no further interest in the
chart claims, except that they would
like to see the holders of them pro-
tected, but that from money stand
point they are relieved from all re-
sponsibility, not even having endorsed
the paper. The paper was made pay
able to the selling agent and properly
endorsed by the county officials be-
fore being discounted to the present
holders. Then in the face of this
bald face swindle, they want to come
back and sell school libraries" Well,
may be they will succeed in some
counties, but we do not think the
people want anything to do with
them, unless it is to get hold OF the
whole oily tongued set, and put them
in the penitentiary. The parties who
bought the claims, when they find
themselves the dupes of these agents,
will join in with the authorities to
bring them to justice.
The company in disclaiming re-
sponsibility is convincing, that the
swindle was premeditated, that they
sent into the State an irresponsible
lot OF agents who took the warrants
in their own name, sold the claims to
innocent parties and skipped out. We
do not know what the legal status of
the matter is, but we think it would be
a good idea for the Attorney General
to commerce criminal proceedings
against the head Of the concern and
have him brought into the State to
ahe put on trial for fraud together

In last SUNDAYS News, appeared

In last Sundays News, appeared
an article from Washington purpor-
ing to be a newly found surprise par
ty for political consumption in this
State. The writer springs a sensa-
tional bon mot by stating, rumor has
it, that Gen. NJ. c. Butler and Sena-
tor B. r. Tillman have thrown their
arms about one another and plotting
ly confded in each other with view
to slipping from under Senator John
L. McLaurin his Senatorial seat. In
the coming campaign, Butler is to
give Tillman his support and in re-
turn Tillman will help Butler oust
McLaurin.
Just what inspired the article can
not be foretold, but we can imagine
the writer when he penned his lines
wondering, if there is really anybody
in South Carolina so credulous as to
believe word of it. Gen. Butler has
reached time in life when we doubt
if he could be induced to again be-
come active in politics,and if he were
to, he would hardly be idiot enough
to make a deal in futures so far off as
the end of McLaurin's term. Then
again Senator Tillman would hardly
undertaFa the job of helping Butler,
because they are both "men of Edge
field" and no one knows better than
Tillman, that the people have quite
suficiency of Edgefeld monopoliz-
ing the honors. At one time Edge
field had nearly every big Office in
the State. BIT should such an ar
rangement be made between Tillman
and Butler, or between Tillman or
anybody else, it had better be kept a
secrect until after the next primary
at least. John L. McLaurin is at
home now, taking a long needed rest,
and he is permitting those who have
been making capital out of his vote
on the Paris peace treaty to exhaust
themselves, when in his jugdement
he thinks the people want an expla-

to take up the charge brought against Moiineux by
Harry Cornish, upon which Moneux Is still held
