n will be HELD IN YORKVILLE,
beginning TUESDAY,, JUNE 20, and

ion of Superintendent McMahan, and
will be conducted by two of the leading
educators of the State. The value of a

young men quietly lodged their prison
ers in Jail to await trial. Before PASS.
ing the life sentence Judge Aldrich
said:
"And just here 1 wish to say to the
good people of Horny county that in
this instance you are deserving of the
highest praise and commendation OF
the people of South Carolina and oi
all this broad land of ours. You are
noted for being brave people physi'
cally. There are no people on earth
braver than the people of Horny coun'
ty. That is the reputation you have
made for yourselves in war and in
peace; and therefore that the law in
this county was resorted to the due
administration of justice means much.
You Ito the prisoners) violated the law
in desecrating a pure home among a
brave people, and yet the bravery of
the people Of Horny county was
adorned by that higher virtue, a love
of law, desire to see the law enforced
in it's due and orderly course of ad-
ministration, bravery over and above
the instincts of race, of anger, and no
lyncher's hand was called upon to
protect the rights of the citizens of
this county. These young men who
arrested you, young men in the flush of
manhood, in the dignity of American
citizens, with a reverence for law
which characterizes all pure men,
brought you here and incarcerated you
in jail, from which you were brought
to trial in court of justice, before a
jury drawn according to law, duly
tried and duly convicted. Such a
spectacle is worth thousand lynch
ings.
"Lynch law means the destruction
of law. Behind the hand of the lynch
ers may be the power of Sampson ; but
in the exercise of that power they pull
down the temple of justice upon the
heads of themselves and their families
and their posterity ; and in place OF
peace and order, civilization and
Christianity, they would hurl the coun.
try into the lap of barbarism.
ga land without law is a land with
out liberty, and land without liberty
is land where the powerful oppress
the weak, where might makes right,
and the only refuge for the humble
and the poor is the courts of the land.
In place of that in Horny county,
every man can walk freely abroad,
and every house, be it ever so humble,
is protected even in the still hours OF
the night by the unseen but all-power-
full protection of the laws of the state
of South Carolina, and the people of
Horny county have set noble exam
pie, an example that will find respect
in the hearts and conscience of every
man who has learned at his mothers
knee the precepts of divine law. II
will command the respect of every
citizen, of every thoughtful man and
woman who in the progress of their
education have learned to love, respect
and revere the law"

There has never been lynching in
Horny county. There has been provo
cation but the people have seen fit to
allow the law to take its course. The
following from the Conway correspon-
dent of the Columbia State under
date of June 6, is interesting and in
structive:
The case of the State VS.. George
Murrel and Daniel Chestnut shows
that Horny means to maintain her
good reputation in regard to lynch
law. 1t will be remembered that
some time during last spring these
Negro boys broke into and attempted
to enter the home of Mr.. Smith, at
Socastee, with intent to commit rape
on two white girls. The young men
of the neighborhood pursued the fends
to their hiding place in swamp,
where they were captured and COM
PEELED to confess the deed. Although
advised that lynching was proper, these

Hauling Liquor In the Night Time.
The supreme court, sitting en- banc,
last Saturday afternoon, granted new
trial in the case of Holleyman ct. al,
who were convicted of hauling liquor
into the state in the night time
from North Carolina. The case came
up from Chesterfield. 1t was contend
ed that the arrest of the men and the
seizure of the liquor was in violation
of the interstate commerce law, the
men living at Lamar and being on their
way when arrested, they transporting
liquor from North Carolina. The
court stood to 4 in favor of revers-
ing the decision of the lower court

Watts, Aldrich and Buchanan were on
one side and Justices Jones, Pope and
Judges Townsend and Klugh on the

parents, carried her to ride yesterday
afternoon. They had been engaged for
sometime, and, so far as known,
there was no objection on the part of
anyone. They drove to Fair Forest,
small town five miles in the country,
and were married by Rev. J. R. Aiken,
Baptist minister. When the affair
became known on the campus it crea.

Practical Application of Superintendent OF
Education McMahan's Address at Hick-
ory Grove.
Editor Yorkville Enquirer.
Among the many attractive features
of the closing exercises of the Hickory
Grove High school, the short address
of Hon. Jno. J. McMahan, state super
intendent of education, is deserving of
special comment. The writer was so
much impressed with the truth and
Importance of the words uttered, that
he desires to call public attention to
some of the points touched. The peo-
pie of Hickory Grove and surround.
ing district should we'll consider the
words of truth and wisdom that were
so earnestly and forcibly expressed.
Knowledge is power, and to obtain
knowledge we must have educational
facilities. Good schools-knowledge-
power. Upon the educational facili-
ties of community depend the social,
financial, industrial, and moral welfare
of the citizens.
If we have the true progressive
spirit and desire to promote the well
fare of the present and the coming
generation, we will stop short of no
effort to maintain, if not improve, the
present standing of our school. We
should not consider merely the person
al advantages to be gained but, in a
humane and patriotic spirit. Let US
remember that we owe duties to those
who are not able to provide for the
education of their children.
Mr.. McMahan declared that in order
to have good government, We must
have intelligent voters, who are able
to think for themselves and so vote in.
telligently. The greatest danger that
threatens the safety and freedom of
a people is ignorance. Look about
you and see the growing tendency of
today to tax commodities of food.
How many of our citizens know how
much taxes they pay over the counters
of the store? While "kicking" at a
small tax sin the open" for better edu-
cational advantages, they pay their
"blind tax" without murmur. Ig-
norance may be bliss, but it is not econ
omy. And people will complain dole
fully of the high taxes of their party
and are lured over by the pick-pocket
policy of the opposite side. 1t is a sad
truth that too many of our people are
blinded by the specious arguments and
sheer bombastry of the wooden stump
orator. How can such people vote in
telligently2 Ask them the meaning of
their vote and you will be surprised at
the answer. We need a more intelli-
gent citizenship.
The writer knows the people of this
community to be of an Intelligent, be-
nevolent and progressive class, and he
believes that they will act upon the
great principles of enlightened citizen
ship in meeting the question now pre-
sented to them for the promotion of
our educational advantages. Let US
lay aside all complaining, pickering
and fault-fnding, and come together
as unit in our efforts for a good
school. If we do this, success is GER
tain and the benefit to our town will
be greater than if we built whole blocks
of brick stores.
Let us all 60 to the polls next Tues
day and cast our votes solidly for the
special tax levy for our graded school.
