TO STOP LYNCHING.
Congressman White Has Bill to In
trCduce.
Washington Dispatch.)

Washington Dispatch.)
George II. White, the colored member
of Congress from North Carolina, says
he will Introduce in the next Congress n
bill which he believes will go
far to rectify the deplorable
conditions now existing in the
Southern States. The bill authorizes
the exercise of coordinate Federal and
State authority for the protection from
lynChing Of all persons charged with
crime. and guarantees Il fair and lmper-
tial trial and protection until the courts
shall decide as to their innocence or guilt.
RenreSentative White has said that the
President has promised the support of
the administration to such Il measure,
and he believes that his bill will become
a law. 1t is the belief of the author that
i'm cases where a Stats claims it is un-
able or negIects to uphold the majesty
of the law and properly guard against
lynclings. the Federal authorities should
take a hand and see that violence is not
committed.

BEN W GOD.
The Proposed Change in the N. B. &
w. Line --Other News.

The ordinance providing for the re-
moval of the NJ, B. & w. railway
tracks from the principal thorough
fares to Kentucky Heights is to come
up at the regular meeting of Council
this evening, and as to what sort of
treatment it will receive seems to
many Of the interested parties to be
matter of mere conjecture In speak
ing of the question, a prominent citi-
zen last evening remarked that in view
of the fact that the majority of the
citizens are not in favor of the pro-
posed change, for the reason that it
would deprive merchants along Main
street of the present transient trade,
and thus be detrimental to the business
interests OF the town, that he was of
the opinion that the ordinance will not
be passed. On the other side. the
friends of the ordinance are hopeful
that it will be carried through. The
electric light question is also scheduled
to come up this evening.

the participants were two men who
exchanged blows at different times ear
ly in the evening and later came to-
gether in mix-up. One of the men
used revolver, firing several wild
shots, which created considerable ex-
element. Their friends interfered and
both were persuaded to return to their

was struck by the flying bullets.
