A pE-rRvEp MoNuMENT.

The Advertiser prints today some what lengthy account of the ceremo- nies attending the unveiIing in Co., lumbia of a monument to Editor N. G. Gonzales. who was killed by Tiilman In speaking of the matter The Raleigh
 Evening Times uses this bitter lan- guage:
 There is no occasion here to call to
 mind the manner of N. c. Gonzales
 by denouncing again the twelve men who acquitted his slayer or the liars and the perjurers who went on the stand to ply their trade for price. act that ever dfsgraced a proud State and a prouder people.
 There is nothing to be gained now
 by denunciation of the slayer of MT. Gonzales. or by harsh criticism of the court that failed to punish him, or of the witnesses who testified in the case. As the evidence showed. the killing was murder, neither more nor less, and the acquittal was a surprise to the country. but that is now closed l incident, so far as anything is to be gained by renewing the discussion. But there is something in the honors shown the memory of Editor Gonzales I that is far above any individual sig nificance it may have, and far above
 and beyond the expression of personal love and respect for fearless and
 conscientious editor. The fact was a
 noble and touching tribute paid by the | people of South Carolina to the free dom of fearless and untrammelled press. It was their manner of show ing how highly they appreciate the
 manhood which could neither be ca joled, bullied nor bought.
 A century or more ago one of the greatest of British statesmen in a speech in Parliament called attention to the many dangers threatening the people andNthe nation. but" he add ed, in effect, leave the press free and
 untrammeled and I defy them to en- croach on the liberties of the people of
 England" If that was true of Great
 Britain it is infinitely more applica-
 bie to the United States. Freedom of speech and of the press are among the advantages secured to us by the Con-
 stiution, and it was in maintenance of this freedom that Mir. Gonzales lost his life.
 It may be true. as charged, that he
 was sometimes overbearing, and 1t may
 be possible that he was not always perfectly fair, but these faults, if he possessed them, were the result of his fearless and open nature. He was
 neither a bully nor a demagogue. He
 uttered his sentiments without regard to consequences. and if he sometimes went beyond the bounds of prudence and courtesy it was because of his
 hatred of wrong and his devotion to the cause of right. His faults are
 buried with him but his people remem- Der and commemorate his virtues.
