have a very strange way of dealing
with negro ravishers. The following
is a clipping from the Seattle Post
Intelligencer:
colored barber charged with criminally as
s.iulting two girls of tender years, pleaded
guilty this afternoon and was sentenced to
Six months in the penitentiary. Smith S
his defense, and it was expected that he
would fight the charge, as the two girls have
since been taken in charge by the Crlttenden
home, in Seattle, and their mother has
moved out of the city.
Had this happened in the South
Mr.. Spencer Smith, the colored
barber, would have been hung, if not
burned OF course, the Northern
radicals would have hurled all
kinds of invective at the Southern
people. Smith would have been
held up as a martyr, victim OF
Southern brutality, and the testi
mony of respectable white people
would have beer discredited by the
Northern press and the lies of the
| negro sympathizers accepted as the
unvarniShed truth.
Six months imprisonment for :
double rape is something unheare
of in any country which claims t.
be even semi-s:m ilized. Judging
from the leniency of this sentence
| there can be no reason to doub
that when Smith will have servet
out his time in the penitentiary h.
W II be taken up by his whit
friends, who put up the money TO
his defense, and idolized as an in
nocent member of docile and OPP
pressed race.

Saturday which furnished considerable
quiet amusement for those who noticed
it. One Of the Elks, in all the splendor
Of his uniform was making his way

using his tightly rolled purple and white
as a cane. There was a good
sized knot hole ia the floor and pres.
emily the Elk brought his umbrella
down jnst right 80 that it slipped from
his hand and shot through the hole so
quickly that he didn't zee where went.
He glanced around and made a clutch
at the only Elk umbrella in sight, and
when he found that wasn't hisn, he
was the most bewildered man on the
gro1ni, until some one explained the
sudden evanishment Of his

County Judge Scott Finds Some coustitutloaal
Obstacles Ia the Way Of RefunduG
the Dett.

CountyJudge Scott has been wrestling
with the proposition made by The
Journal 10 refund the floating debt by
means Of a popular loan to the people at
three or four per ent interest, and thus
put tie county on a cash basis.
Judge Scott finds the constitution,
Art. II, Sec. 10. prohibits counties hav-
ing debt Of over 5000. There have
been two snpreme court decisions on
this clause, Ore. p COS, and q, ,436. The
debt is now about f62.oOO. Taxes are
declared delinquent Oct Let and pay
ments Of taxes are reducing the
debt rapidly BY the first Of the month
the floating debt may be down to t5O,-
600.
Judge Scott is taking time to look up
all the legal obstacles and will give The
Journal readers bis opinion in few
days, a. 10 whether the county debt can
be refunded or not.
II would appear that the present debt
is unconstitutional and as the people at
last election refused 10 remove tie debt
limit, the county cannot get relief by
legislation II must help itself II il gets
relief from high interest.
