Laxx,a Indefinite Delay.

Columbia State: There is In the Jail
at Georgetown Negro barber, Jonn
Brownfield, who has sentence OF
death hanging over him, yet he may
have to remain where he Is for some
wears before he will know whether 1t Is
to he executed or not, or before the
state courts can order its execution.
The case is a striking illustration OF
how the law may tie up case. John
Brownfield killed a white man In l9oo
in Georgetown, and the affair brought
about the riot trouble there, which
caused the governor to send the mill
tia there, and finally cost the state
about s2,7OO. Finally the Negro was
tried and convicted Of murder. and was
sentenced to die at the ropes end. His
Negro lawyer, Whipper, appealed to
the state supreme court. Meanwhile
the Negro managed to escape from
the jail, but was too weak from the
confinement to run. He was quickly
recaptured and has been in the jail
since. In the meantime Sheriff Skin
ner died and the present sheriff. Mr..
McKiethen, was appointed. Not long
ago the state supreme court sustained
the circuit court and the Negro was
ordered resentenced. Before day
could be set for the execution Whipper
appealed to the United States supreme
court, this acting as a stay OF pro-
ceedings in the state court. 1t is prob
lematical when the case will ever be
reached in the United States supreme
court. In the meantime the Negro
must remain in Jail, and no further
step can be taken until the highest tri-
bunal in the United States hears the
case and hands down it's decision. The
fellow, it Is said, has now completely
recovered his health, and bears his
confinement, which may last for seve-
raj years, remarkably we'll. The case
is a most unusual one.

Alleged Republican Programme.

August Kohn in News and Courier:
There comes all the way from Wash
ington a well-defined report that the
Republicans are expecting results
from the appointments that are being
made in South Carolina, and that the
expectation is that the recent appoint
ments of Gold Democrats and the like
Is to result into an evolution Of Re-
publicans: The report that comes is
that certain appointees are to see that
q delegation is sent to the next Repub-
lican convention, and If those who
have gotten the appointments and who
have been beneficiaries Of the Republi-
can administration do not find it con-
genial or promising OIL success to go
into the regular Republican conven-
tion, the idea is that they are to get up
some sort Of a convention and send a
delegation to the national convention,
and if the new Republican party idea
has the swing that is claimed for it,
then such a delegation would be seat
ed whether there be delegation from
a regular convention or not. The
great trouble with such plan is the
expected fight that will be made
against the denomination of President
Roosevelt. If Hanna is in charge of
the machine and accomplishes the de-
feat of Roosevelt, as he is now working
to do, then such delegation, compos-
ed Of the new element Of the party,
would get a frost at the Republican
convention; but if the convention be
controlled by President Roosevelt and
his followers, then the new element
would get seats in the convention and
settle the status of such an organi-
zation, small as it may be in this state
This Is a new phase Of the conditions
in this state and may mean a great
deal to those who are getting the plums
or who are expecting them.

SCRIPT FILINGS
REJECTED
Serious Trouble Narrowly Avsvted
Some Forty Psrse~s Secured
Claims In the Section.

The Lewiston land Office was the scene
of a land rush last Tuesday morning
which for time threatened to prove very
interesting. On Tuesday two townships
Of white pine were thrown open for filing.
The states priority Of sixty days had ex-
pired and many eager sppiicants were
on hand to take up what the state had
left.
The FIRST IS Of this number had been
holding down the ir places for IS hours
and the remainder joined them from the
train Monday afternoon. Some Of the
new cotners jumped from the, moving
train as it SLOWED up to enter the city
and rushed to the land Office to fall IN
line.
The doors opened promptly At a m.
aud the applicants pressed forward tc
make their filings. In the midst of the
work sensation waa sprung. When
Jno. Pointing and Charles Thompson 81
this city approached the clerk they were
forcibly seized by those behind them and
compelled to take places in the rear q
the line. The cause Of the attack OF
Pointing and Thompson was the dis
covery that they were agents Of the Tur
rish syndicate and were in possession O
script to take all the land in question
When all filings were made Thompson
and Pointing offered script for 24Ao acres
including nearly all that the applicant,
who elected them had filed upon. Offer,
tor about 1000 acres were accepted bu,
the land Office refused to receipt filings OF
the lands covered by those who preceded
the script filings.

Tuesday a successful raid of the Nex-
perce soft drink house was made by the
federal officers. The prop,ietors, Joseph
Martin and Charles Vickery, were put
under arrest and the place searched and
several gallons of liquor seized and des-
troyed.
Warrants issued Monday on complaint
made before Commissioner +. O'Neill by
]. s. Hindman, a secret service, man who
has been spending some time in the re-
servation country. Deputy Marshal
Foresman and Officer Hindman drove to
Nezperce from Peck. surprised the pro.
prietors, effected their capture and the
seizure of the beer and whiskey found in
the establishment. Vickery and Martin
are both we'll known on the reservation.
Vickery operated for time at Culdesac.
Martin has lived near Fletcher. A few
months ago they rented the Charles
Holm property at Nezperce and opened
soft drink house. They became very
bold violators Of the law and now suffer
the consequences OF being caught red
handed by the authorities. They were
brought to Lewiston by the officers We'd
nesday morning and taken before Com
missioner O'Neill. They waived ex-
animation and were bound over to the
October term in the sum Of $500 each.
They failed to furnish bond and are now
in the county Jail.

The Albion Normal.

Governor Hunt has asked all of the
trustees Of the Albion Normal school Ia
resign, says the Boise Statesman. From
all that can Ike learned AT this time an
amazing condition exists in the affairs of
that institution. The original board Of
ru'tees consisted Of II. I. Eames. presi-
dent; DR.. X. T. Story, secretary; and
John w. Daniels, w. T. Jack and Mr..
Holden. As long as year ago II was
discovered that the school affairs were
being loosely managed. Pres. Eames
had given his name to vouchers aud the
money appropriated by the legislature
was being industrinusly drawn from the
treasury. The legislature had given
$4,000 for the purpose Of improving the
main building and building a dormitory
also $4,000 for running the school.
From the obtainable information il an.
pears that the secretary was not much OF
q book keeper. Local scan1a arose
touching the conduct Of the Office Of Sec
retary Story. At this time Gov Hunt
asked Prof. Daniels to go to Albion aud
investigate, As chairman Of the audit
ing committee he found that Secretary
Story had failed to take receipts for
money expended and that a major por-
ton OF the $4,000 appropriated for i'm.
provenlents was gone. This he laid be.
fore Governor Hunt who asked Professor
Daniels advice as to what sionld be done.
The Professor replied that there was only
ore way out Of the dilemma, aud that
was for Governor Hunt to demand the
resignation of every member of the board
OF trustees. This the governor did and
all resigned except Mr.. Holden who is a
very close political friend of the COVER
nor's
Professor Danials suggested to Cover
nor Hunt that he should appoint the new
board entirely outside of the village OF
Albion for the reason that the relations
between the village and the school were
such that the conduct of the school had
become farcieal.
