A Friend Deceived.

If there Is consistent and honest
e, durSer Of Senator J'ilIman in
South Carolina it is the editor of
the Orangeburg Patriot, who has
stood sqnarely by Benjamin The
rillmauito through thick and thin,
and has never faltered in his ale
glance TO the author Of tho famous
manifesto of 1890 Editor Parks
was raised in Edgciield county,
and i accustomed to speak out
plainly when there is occasion.
Here Is tho estimate he puts upon
the free pass episode:
If any man in state politics for
the past twenty years ever sue
ccodcd in thoroughly convincing
the masses that he was sincere in
his condemnation Of the free pass
evil, that man was Senator Till
mau. When he was found with
free pass No. l IN his possession
his friends were amazed, but upon
his acknowledge nont that he had
made . grave blunder, expire, sing
bis regrets that he had accepted n
pass, most of his friends forgave
him. But now that he has been
found with various free passes IN
his possession, he will not find it
50 easy to obtain forgiveness for
the second otfense. We have
been very much deceived in Sena.
tor Tillman and the last episode
has filled many ofhi friends with
deepest h g + in. "-Grcenville

Iorkyi!Ic, Aug. %. The ex,
citemcnt attending the riot and
murder OF Alex Lee byAlf Lcach,
both colored, at negro picnic q
few miles west of this place yes
terdny afternoon, has about sub
sided. The slOye: and two other
negroes arc in jail and Magistrate
Conner has issued six warrupts for
negroes who took part in try ing to
take the prisoner from tho faithful
negroes who held him until the
officers Of the law arrived.
These negroes who performed
this brave act were from York
willie and vicinity and are heartily
commended by the citizens and
officials of this place. Their names
deserve to bc given to lho public
and arc as follows: Ed Lcech, Joe
Reid, John Wheeler, Hogan Bry.
ant, Pres King, Paul Crawford,
Ed Bycrs, Bob Adams and Adam
Cha mbcrs. There were n number
of others who "backedn them and
were ready TO give assistance.
These men were unarmed and
labored under disadvantages, hav =
ing TO stand off Il mob who were
armed with pistols, knives and
clubs. They also had to put up
with blows from the mob and had
some of their clothing torn. Their
faithful services ought to be re-
cognizel by the governor and
other officials, and if thought best
they should be rewarded. Such
action as this by the colored peo
pie will do more to put down
lynching than all the newspaper
articles, conventions or sermons
that can be written, held or
preached.

Relations Of Territory

The statement that Secretary Hitch.

discussion of the actual relations that
exist between territorial form Of
government and TIE interior depart.
ment which. in a measure, administers
the affairs Of a territory. Il is not
believed that the agen's Of the interior
department can do more than secure
evidence Of corruption, simply as de-
tectives and submit this evidence to
a grand jury in the county in Which
the cflense was committed.
The peculiar relations existing be-
tween a territory and the federal gov
ernment have led to uncertainty in
the minds OF many persons as to how
much authority the citizens Of Ter
fftory could exercise in the manage
ment and control of their public affairs
without conflicting with the greater
authority OF the federal government.
The members OF a territorial legisla.
ture are elective. but their official
salaries and certain incidental ex-
penses Of territorial legislature are
paid BY the federal government. In
earlief years no act OF a terri, crial
legislature could become a law until
after its approval by congress. This
provision was omitted from the organ
ic act OF Oklahoma The organic act
prohibits the enactment of laws in
conflict wi b the constitution and laws
Of the United states, but lawyers, who
have studied the question declare that
this specific injunction fails to ex-
press the full authori3 yof congress.

A Hunch

To the property owners of Guthrie:
Can you give a reason, logical, or
otherwise, why Guthrie with its many
railroads will not be within the short
space of two years a city of $4,000
inhabitants? Why it will not be the
retail and jobbing city of the south
west? Why it should not with its
excellent railroad facilities erect a
cotton mill? It's In as good a cotton
belt as any of the mill towns of
Georgia and bucket brigade
would look awful good
Why the real estate opportunities
here don't offer better investments
than other cities of like size on
earth? Why the railroads are all Sc
curing terminals and acreage proper
ty here, without it's meaning that
there is going to be something do
ing" Why you don't during this
calm before the storm" have Laux
make an abstract Of your property,
so you can correct all flaws at your
leisure? Many a good sale falls
through on account of defects in titles.
You experienced this during the little
furry OF year ago.
The best Of prophets for the future
is the past" My nunch to you is that
you govern yourself as above set
forth. generate little enthusiasm for
Guthrie and you'n soon realize that it
really deserves to be what 1t is-the
only city OF destiny" ia the south

public schools II will be recalled that
there has leen sharp rivalry between
the advocates respectively of French

OF education has avoided any attempt
to decide between them 1t treats
them as equals, and puts them both,

Thus no pupils win be required to
