THE RACE QUESTION.
Bill Introduced In Congress Providing for
the Repeal of the Fifteenth Amend
ment to the Constitution.

A Washington special to the
News and Courier says that Repre-
sentative Hardwick introduced his
bill providing for the repeal of the
fifteenth amendment of the Consti-
tuition. The introd action of this
bill is intended to induce Congress
to take up and consider the race
question, which is not only being
agitated in he South, but is burn
ing issue III some of the Northern.
Western and border States.
Of course there is no prospect Of
all early consideration Of the Hard,
wick bill, for it will hardly be
reached during the extra session.
1t has not been referred to com
mlttee, but, legislatively, it lies up
on the Speakers table to be referred
to All appropriate committee when
the Speaker shall make his com
mittee assignments. By introduce
ing his bill at this time MIR.
HardwiCk is but CARRYING on,
one of the campaign pledges he
made when he defeated Judge
Fleming for the nomination. Mr..
Hardwicll has been industriously
circulating among his Democratic
associates since the present session
began, AID he has already received
much encouragement at the hands
Of some of the strongest men OH the
minority side of the House to force
the fighting on his bill at the frs
opportunity. He has not proceeded
far enough with his canvass of the
House to venture upon prediction
but he has his heart in his work
and although one of the "baby'
members of the House he is capable
of dealing with this great subject
like veteran.

ASST GNMENT ORDERED.
Camden, Nov. 18.-At Il meet
ing of the board of directors OF the
Farmers and Merchants bank, the
following action was taken:
Having with the aid of two able
experts, examined all Of the avail
able records, books, papers and ac.
counts found in the bank vault, the
result of which satisfies the board
that the assets and securities Of the
bank are sufficient eventually to
meet all its legal obligations and tc
pay all depositors and other credi
tors, but III view Of the serious in
terruptions caused to it's business by
the calamity which has occurred
the lack at this time of an available
person willing to assume the duties
of president and in the further con
dition which exists that some time
will be necessary to convert the as.
sets into cash, we do hereby resolve
and determine for the best interest
of all creditors under the circum-
stances to make all assignment of all
tne property, securities and credits
of the bank to f. S. Vaux and A.
D. Kennedy to be administered fol
the equal benefit of all creditors
according to law"
This resolution was signed by the
entire board of directors and the

He was president Of the DeKalb cot
