Augusta Tribune: There was very
serious shooting scrape down the old
Port Royal road yesterday afternoon.
The result is that Mr.. Frank Chris
holm was shot dead, and that Mr..
Frank Greene is now lying at the city
hospital. and in all likelihood dying.
The cause of the difficulty was a long
standing feud. They had been enemies
for years Yesterday they met, and
one of them in some way brought up
the old trouble. Hot words ensued. re-
volvers were drawn, and Chrishobm
was shot dead. Greene received a bull
let wound in the head, which Will very
likely end his life. He was brought
TO the city on the morning train from
down there to-day. He was taken to
the hospital, where he was afterwards
operated upon. His recovery is very
doubtful Jackson is a small town
about fourteen miles down the old
Port Royal road. now the C. and w. C.

GEORGIA HEROES HONORED.

Georgia soldiers who displayed con-
spicuous courage and galIantry in bat
tie in Cuba and the Philippine Islands,
have been nominated BY President
Roosevelt for appointment by brevet
to higher rank in the army. The
President sent the names to the SEN
ate for confirmation recently along
with a list of gallant soldiers from
other states. The Georgians men
toned are as follows: Capt. Frank F.
crenshaw, Twenty-eighth Infantry, to
be lieutenant colonel by brevet, for
distinguished gallantry in battle at
Papaya, Philippine Islands, June 5,
1900. Capt. Crenshaw received a
wound in this battle from which he
died later. First Lieutenant James V.
Heidi, Sixth Infantry to be captain by
brevet for distinguished gallantry in
battle at Santiago. Cuba, July 1, 1898
Lieutenant Colonel John w. French of
the Twenty third Infantry, who died
at Fort Mcpherson in 1901, to be colo
mel by brevet, for distinguished gallan-
try at Manila, Aug 13, 1898. Among
the other Southerners to be thus pro-
NOTED for gallantry in action the Pres
ident mentions Maj. Micah B. Jenkins,
who recently refused the Tillman
sword, and Maj. Joe Wheeler, Jr., a
son of Gen. Joe Wheeler.
GEORGIA LOST A GOOD FRIEND.
Atlanta Journal The state of Geor-
gia lost good friend and very help
full one when Mr. Aaron French of
Pittsburg died at his home in that city.
He had reached the ripe old age of 10
and for several months past his health
had been in such a precarious condi-
hot fk1 - 1T
death will cause little surprise. Aaron
French made his own fortune by his
strong native ability, his great energy
and his excellent judgment. His ex-
perience in youth aroused in him an
earnest interest in young men who
strive to make their way in the world.
He saw in the Georgia School of Tech
nology an agency that would accom-
plish immense good for the industrial
development of Georgia by educating
many of her sons along practical and
productive lines and he became the
largest benefactor of this noble insti
tute. Time and time again the School
of Technology received from Mr..
French substantial evidence of his de-
sire to strengthen and enlarge its work.
1t is better and more complete school
to-day because Aaron French has lived.
The sum of his benefactions to the in
stitution is large and constitute mon
ument to his memory. The example
set by Mr.. French in aiding the School
OF Technology, we doubt not has
moved others to help the institution
and will bear more fruit of that char
acter Mr. French has benefited Geor-
giar also by demonstrating more clearly
than it was generally known before the
fact that the gold deposits in this state
are rich and can be worked proftably.
He took a lively interest in all that
looked to the development and advance
of Georgia, though he was citizen of
distant state and the great bulk of
his interests were there. He won the
lasting gratitude of the people of Geor-
gia. and they will preserve his name
in honored and lasting memory.

There is satisfactory evidence that
very many members of trades unions
have been shocked at the open blow
against the State involved in the Sche-
nectady unions expulsion of WILLIAM
POTTER for belonging TO the National
Guard. There is murmur of disap-
proval of the hostility to law and order
which has trickled through unionism
This is a welcome sign But il be-
hooves all former associates of POTTER,
the country over, 10 contemplate honestly
the earlier spread Of the malign spirit
which they now condemn.
In attacking the National Guard the
Painters and Decorators Union No. 80
is no pioneer There never has been an
instance in which the State troops have
been called upon to protect life and
property against striker violence that
they have not been denounced as tools
of capital and" tyrannizers over labor, I"
not only by the individual agitator, but
by the very highest labor councils.
What is this but friendlness to law
lessness and treason to the State?

Government.

The policy of enforcing unionism
everywhere, even where it isn't wanted
by the laborers themselves, as in the case
of the Schenectady railroad; the coercion
of men and corporations by the boycott
the display Of hostility TO the National
Guard by the expulsion of members be-
longing to 1t: the defiance of law in the
case of all great strikes, are simply diff
ferent phases of an endeavor to sub
sttute trades union government for the
government we have.
The present government aims at the
establishment of equal rights among all
men in the enjoyment of life and the pur-
suit of happiness. Trade union govern
ment aims to make money for those who
belong 10 trades unions. The great
annual fund of profits now. divided ac-
cording TO the fundamental law of trade
the trade unionsts would divide arbi-
trarily so as to increase their share; and
they would permit nothing TO stand in
their way TO success.
Herein is the radical and irreconcilable
conflict between popular government
and trade union government.
We're for the United States.

Mitchell vs.. the Truth.

JOHN MITCHELL, of the United Mine
Workers, has just been on the stand ex-
pressing the opinion that the unionist
who commits crime is unionism's worst
enemy" That is his defence against the
charge that the reign of terrorism on ac-
count of which Governor STONE finally
called out the entire National Guard OF
Pennsylvania was caused by his own
followers.
We refer Mr.. MITCHELL. 10 the peti-
ton published by the employees of the
Hillside Coal and Iron Company when
they saw their liberty and peace en-
dangered by the Presidents taking his
stand at MITCHEILs elbow Never has
a union man been punished for COM
hitting violence against a non-unionist
Until this policy is reversed no labor
leader can honestly deny that lawless-
ness is practically a part of his pro-
gramme.
