Anti-LynCh Law no Good
a Case Twice Tried in South
Carolina Courts, Goes Against
the Victims Heirs.

Charleston, S G, Sept 27-The
anti lynching law of this State,
making the county responsible for
damages to the family of the vic.
tim, has received another black
eye. On January 4, 1897, Isaac
Brown, a negro, was handged to
the railroad crossing ut Stillton,
Orangeburg county, his neck
broken and his body riddled with
bullets. Browns father brought
suit against the county for dam
ages last year, but the Jury
promptly brought in Il verdict for
the county. The verdict was set
aside by Judge Gage, and another
trial of the same case has been
had, this week, and another ver>
diet rendered for the county of
Orangeburg.

Tillman in Wisconsin.
South Carolina Senator Argues
with Republicans Against
Imperialism.

United States Senator Benjamin
r Tillman addressed Democratic
gathering of 900 persons at the
South Side Turner hall, Mllwau>
kee, last Thursday night, confn.,
ing his remarks chiefly to i'm
periaIism. He was frequently ap-
plauded.
"One burning question:" he
said, "is to determine whether or
not you will retain republic to
live under or whether you will set
up a military despotism." "
The Porto Rican tariff law he
characterized as "a damnable act,
for which you will rise up and
call the Republicans to account :"
These people, he said, were
promised that they should receive
all the rights and guarantees that
the constitution calls for, but the
Republican party has from the
start denied them their rights.
He dwelt at length upon the
Philippines and ridiculed the state =
ment of Republicans that tho war
was over in those islands: and
stated that in the face of such re-
ports messages were being sent
to Washington almost daily con-
tanning news OF the killing Of
many of our soldiers. He quoted
Admiral Dewey to the effect that
the Filipinos were better able to
govern themselves than the Cubans
who were given their liberty while
the Filipinos remain slaves.
He urged his hearers to arise
above party and vote for principle
and liberty; that they were to
decide whether the constitution
and the flag were to go together.
Taking up the argument of "the
full dinner pail" the speaker
told his listeners to tell the Re-
pubhcans that "slaves heretofore
have had full dinner pals"
Senator Tillman closed by IN.

Bryan, and predicted defeat of

Columbls Before Dying.
Columbia Record


The coroner held an inquest
yesterday over the dead body of
Frank Washington, col. who was
killed Mt Big Lake, in the county,
by Piigram Flowers. Both are

They were in a gambling game

This was Sunday morning at 6
O'Clock. The bullet was fired into
Washington's face and it passed
through his head, lodging under
the skin in the back of his
Uranium.
Notwithstanding the bullet went
through his brain, Washington
was able to drive to Columbia for
medical assistance. He died Mon
day morning at 1 O'Clock.
PiIgram Flowers fled and has
not yet been arrested.

Mormon Elders,
Meet With Very Severe Treat
ment in Florida.

Mariana, Fla, Sept 2G-Re-
ports come from the western por-
tlon of the county that Mormon
elders who have been at work all
summer there have been run out
of the county by angered men.
Three families were packed up
to 90 with them, consisting of
eight women and girls and two
men, when mob of 50 men
gathered, stripped and whipped
the elders, and at the muzzles of
sAotguns escorted them across the
county line, warning them that
they would be killed if they re-
turned. One of the man converts
was also severely beaten.
Another report says that one of
the elders were killed and three
others covered with tar and cotton
and set on fire.

Howard Convicted.
A Kentucky Jury Says that He
Murdered Goebel-Death will
be the Penalty.

Frankfort, Sept 26-Jim How
ard, who has been on trial here,
charged with the killing of Gov.
Goebel, was this morning found
guilty of murder In the first degree.
The jury fixed the penalty at death.
1t is said the first ballot was ten
to two for conviction.
The fact that the jury had de-
liberated all of yesterday after
noon without rendering verdict
led to the belief that it was hope
lessly divided, and this fact made
the verdint o shock to Howard
and those who hoped for his ulti-
mate acQuittal.
Howard did not lose his com
posure when the extreme penalty
of the law was read in the crowd
ed court room. He glanced at
his attorneys, who sat beside him,
and smiled and said nothing. At
ter the Jury had been discharged
Howard was taken back to Jail and
here for the first time he betrayed
emotion. He called for a pen and
paper and wrote Il long letter to
his wife, during which tears
courscd down his cheeks. He was
Joined later by his attorneys, who
spent a good part of the day in
conference with him In regard to
the motion tor a new trial which
will be filed tomorrow and other
matters in connection with the
case.
w Fl Culton, who is under in
dlctment as an accessory to the
Goebel murder, and who gave
damaging evidence against both
Howard and Caleb Powers, was
released on bail this afternoon and
his case was continued until the
January term. His bond was
fixed at $40, 900, and his brother
in-law, K f Hogg of Owsley
county, and j + Halcomb and
John johnson of jackson county
became his sureties.
Howard and his friends are
very bitter in their denunciatlon of
witnesses who, it is charged, were
in the conspiracy to murder Goe-
bel and who have since been manu-.
featuring testimony against others
in order to obtain immunity for
themselves.
"Jim" Howard. as he is COM
monty known in the mountains, is
q strikingly handsome man, A
years OF age, and would be one of
the last TO be pointed out by
stranger as the man on trial.
He has the record, however, of
being the leader of the Howard,
White faction in tho Baker How
ard feud in Clay county, in which
numerous lives were taken. He
had killed George Baker and was
suspected of the assassination of
Tom Baker, who was killed after
the same fashion as Goebel, and
Howard's friends believe that
these facts had very much to do
with the making of the verdict
sentencing him to the gallows.
The trial of Henry E Youtsey
Newport will be called next Mon
day at Georgetown.
