ed With Embezz1ement.

Rafael Romero, county school super
intendent of Mora County, has been in
dicted by the U. S. grand jury of the
Fourth Judicial District on charges Of
embezzling, and secreting letter con-
tanning a check. The government
claims to be able to prove that Ro-

other and cashed the check which it
contained.

interest as Romero is we'll known

friends in the Territory, who declare
that the charges against him are un-
just and have been trumped up by his
enemies. Romero is a graduate OF

FACTS AND FANCIES.

an Mr.. B. u. Springs, proprietor ol
the Springfield farm, has the distinc-
ton of having been the only plaintin
to win a case against Il railroad during
the extra term Of court. Mr.. G. w. -
Hart succeeded In non-suiting one
claim for 100000 and Mr.. G.. +. san
ders succeeded In non-suiting an
other claim for like amount and still
another for only 500. Altogether II
was an unusual record, and the rail-
roads have cause to be encouraged by
II. But in the case Of Mr.. Springs,
there is no reason to doubt that he had
right to have his complaint so to
the jury nor neither is there any DOUBT
that he was entitled to his verdict.
Although the whole story did not come
ont It was about like this: The rail-
road runs through the Springfield pas
ture. From time to time the grass
had been set on fire by sparks from the
engines. and the fire had been commu-
,icated to the forests. There was O
complaint to the railroad; but no claim
for damages AS the result the rail-
road people asked Mr.. Springs to build
his pasture fence on their right OF way
close up to their track, so his cattle
could eat down the grass ana lessen
the fire danger. This was done. on

when caught by the officers, were each
required to hand over SO as guaran-

Tillman's Application For Bail.

The hearing on the application Of
James H. Tillman for bail, was COM
menced at Newberry last Thursday
and postponed until next Thursday,
when it will be concluded in Colum-
bia. The motion for postponement
which was made by prosecuting attor-
neys and sustained by Chief Justice
Pope, was on the ground that Till
mans attorneys had not filed copies Of
the affidavits submitted today with
prosecuting attorneys, giving them no
opportunity for reply. Tillman's line
of defense as indicated in his and other
affidavits submitted, is that Gonzales
had made threats against Tillman,
saying that he had made him show
the white feather on several occasions
and would do so again. That when
Tillman met Gonzales, Gonzales had
his hands in his overcoat pocket. That
when he perceived Tillman he showed
his hand deeper in his right hand pock-
ct and glared at Tillman. That Till
man believed his own life in danger
and fired. In addition to Tillman's af-
fdavit one was submitted from
Holtzenbach, stating that deponent had
heard Gonzales in conversation with
White, a door-keeper of the house,
make threats against Tillman. Holtz-
enbach claims ~he was in Columbia
applying for a job. Also there was an
affidavit from j. A. White, substantial
ting Holtzenbach.

SOME time ago, the Ledger suggest
ed that on account Of the congested
condition at the state hospital for the
insane, that the state buy some land
in one of the upper counties and es-
tablish another hospital. The Green
Vile Mountaineer' objected on the
ground that the state already owned
plenty Of land in Columbia for all the
purposes Of the hospital. Now there
Is a resolution before the general as
sembly to authorize the hospital to buy
four acres Of Columbia land for price
not to exceed $500. We still think
it would be wise to do as the Ledger
suggested. Establish a new hospital
in one of the upper counties-Ganney
Ledger.
We are inclined to indorse this sug-
gestion of the Ledger as being emf
nently correct and proper. 1t seems
that the Columbia people have things
in such a shape that the general as
sembly never considers that any new
state enterprise can be established
anywhere else than in Columbia. The
penitentiary is in that city as are also
the state hospital for the insane, the
state dispensary, the South Carolina
college and other large state interests.
The Columbia people are in a posi-
tion to work the general assembly and
the state officers for each Of these In
stitutions with view to benefiting
Columbia, and 1t is quite clear that
the people Of Columbia get more than
their fair share of the benefits, that
are derived from taxation Of the peo-
pie Of the whole state. 1t Is a fact
that the Columbia banks get the ben
eft Of the vast majority Of the state
deposits of the state treasurer, and 1t
is the same with the whole list of gov
ernmental benefits. There has been
about enough distribution of govern
mental benefits and enterprises to es-
tablish the rule that everything does
not belong to Columbia; but we think
the distribution idea could be carried
good deal further without injustice
or hardship to the people Of the state
as a whole.
