THURSDAY EVENING MARCH 30, 1900.

Two NEGRO men have recently been
shot and killed here by members OF
their own race, and it is reported that
most of the negro bucks arrested and
searched by the police are found to be
armed with pistols, though rszors con-
tinue to be the fsvorite weapon with
those who are too impecunious to
equip themselves with revolvers. In
view of the notorious fact that when
excited the negro, Notwithstanding his
two centuries of association with the
white man, manifests the barbarous
instincts of his savage ancestors, the
law against carrying concealed weap-
ons should be more strictly enforced,
not only for the safety of the white
people, who have to bear the burden OF
their black neighbors. but for that OF
the negroes themselves. They should
be dissrmed and placed upon q peace
footing as soon az possible.

of the State funds of such salaries and
expenses as were provided for In the
act. He also pointed out that the pro
vision OF the act in requiring the re-
funding of excess commissions to the
treasury must necessarily mean that 40
appropriation had been provided for.
How" asked the Senator, were they
to refund something that they did not
get, or that no provision was made
for them to get? If the coterie OF
our public are not careful they will
find themselves, after completing their
labors, with a mortgage upon them.
They are, according to our learned
friends, to work without pay and with
out tools. The State lie made to appro.
