either be sent out mighty crooked or
changed materially after they reach
their destination.

CLEMENCY BESOUGHT.

Williamsburg Murderer.

Columbia, November Ex-Governor
Heyward today received an eleventh
hour petition from Lawyers Lee &
Askins, asking that the death sen
tence of negro named Epps Snow
den, who has been sentenced to hang
at Kingstree, Williamsburg county,
next Friday, be either commuted TO
life imprisonm or that he be re
spited until the case can be looked
into. The ground for asking for ex-
ecutive clemency is that the killing
was done in sudden heat ac5 passion.
But the governor is not favorably i'm
pressed with the belated petition, still
he does not like to shut man Oh
from his right Of appeal for executive
clemency at the last moment, and ne
has taken the matter up with Judge
Watts, who tried the case, and will
give his decision within "a hours.
The likelihood is that Snowden will
hang next Friday according to pro-
gram.

INToLERABLE CONDITIONS.
Greenyille Anxious to Keep Consta-
bles-What Sheriff Gilreath Says.

Greenville November 19.-Word
that Governor Hayward will remove
the cons.ables from this county. was
received with regret by many citizens,
as there is a strong sentiment here i'm
favor of retaining the constabulary
anl putting on the half mill tax.
1t is said 90 per cent. Of the tax:
payers are in favor Of paying the tax
to have the constables remain and the
city and county officers without ex,
ception are in favor of retaining the
constabulary. 1t is said the constables
were sent back to Union after hav-
ing been removed on account of some
Of the county officers Of that county
declaring the conditions in that coun-
ty as intolerable.
The officers here are free to state
as many citizens are, that the condi:
ton here will be intolerabfe when ths
dispensary is closed and it is desired
that the constables remain here, IAN
experiment in this county" said C!Eief
Becknell, SIS not necessary. A tilnd
man can Sc that the blind tiger are
already opening up, and today we see
the effects of the talked of remosal Of
the constables.
Sheriff Gilreath is willing an% ready
to do his duty. but he says-tne con-
stables are a necessity to TIE proper
enforcement OF the law. Sc: will do
all within his power to keep down the
lawlessaess without the constables.
but he says there is more than he can
possibly do.
DO YOU know tbs will be the worst
blind tiger county n the State?' said
the sheriff, speaking about the remov-
a of the constables. Why" said he,
Union has few government dis1iiler-
les from which to sell on the side and
fev .rI;cit p,an1s. Spartanburg has
few government distelleries and COM
paritively no Illicit plants, While
Greenville is full of both government
and illicit plants, and the latter have
never been getting in better work.
He expects to see the governor per
sonally about the matter and nobody
is in a better position to know condi-
tions than the sheriff.
The cotton mill presidents, the
bank presidents the largest taxpay-
ers in the city and county, in fact al
most all citizens want the constables
retained and Governor Hayward will
doubtless be deluged with personal
communications relative to the matter
between now and the time the dispen-
saries are closed.
The taxpayer argues that the bet
ter the police protection the more val
liable his property and the business
man believes the half mill tax will be
a paying investment.-The State.

AN IMPORTANT DECISION.
Judge Brawlcy Files Order in Building
and Loan Cases.

In the United States Circuit Court,
Judge Brawley filed yesterday morn
ing his opinion in the eight building
and loan cases recently heard at
Greenville.
The main question in the case was
whether or not in the final settlement
borrowers We're entitled to credit up
on their bonds for all the monthly
payments made, whether in the shape
Of intalments on stock, or interest or
premium. 1t was admitted that they
we're entitled to credit for payments
on account Of the first two items, but
counsel for the receiver contended
that payments on account OF prem
ium were not to be SO credited, sup
porting their contention upon the de-
cision of the United States Circuit
Court in this State in 1903, in build
ing and loan association against Alex
ander, wherein it was held that by
the terms of the contract payments
on account of premium were exclud-
ed. The referee sustained this con-
tention and held that payments for
premiums should not be allowed.
The opinion just filed reverses this
report, holding that the contract in
this case was not precisely identical
with that in Alexander's case, and
that the opinion in the last named
case was not conclusive upon the
question which the court is now re-
quired to exercise it's independent
judgment, and that under the princi-
pies announced by the Circuit Court
of Appeals in the case of Building and
Loan Association against the Edge
field Hotel Company in 1904, the bor-
rover. was entitled upon final settle
ment to be credited with all payments
made on account of interest and stock
as by the terms of the contract the
building and loan association was not
entitled upon final settlement to re-
ceive anything more than the prin-
cipal sum loaned, with interest there
on at the rate Of 8 per cent. per an
mum. this form of contract having
been adopted by the building and loan
associations so as to avoid the decis-
ions relating to usuary, and that there
ia lit was differentiated from the Or
dinary buHd1ng- -aadloan contracts.

sidered in the main cause.-News and
