The Public's Rights.

The people Of the United States
view with dismay, not unmixed with
anger, the fact that the coal miners
and operators seem to be drifting
into another great strike, which would
affect the industries of this section Of
the country, imperial domestic comfort
and cause some measure Of wide
spread distress, such as prevailed
when the last battle was on. The fact
that the trouble is slated for April 1
would mean less misery, but no less
nuisance and general annoyance. 10
matter how much coal has been ac-
cumulated by the operators, prices will
be affected and such a situation pre-
cipitated as will mean nothing less
than calamity. Our civilization fails
when such a menace as this has to be
periodically faced The rights Of the
public are too little considered upon
the one side and the other.-Spring-

James ". Israel Shot in His Field by
Jesse Bush Near Whitney in Spar
tanburg County.

Spartanburg, February 1S.-Jesset
Bush shot and killed James W. Israel
in a fed on the lands OF Mr.. Berry
Cudd about five miles beyond the city
near Whitney this morning. 1t was
the result of a serious family trouble.
Last night the daughter Of Bush,
about II years old, gave birth to
child. 1t is said that Isreai was ac-
cused Of being its father.
The Bushes live near Lolo but last
year they lived on the Cudd place, not
far from Israel's house. Seeing Israel
in a field working this morning, Bush,
armed with a shotgun and a pistol,
approached him and fred three times,
twice with the gun and once with the
pistol. The gunshot wounds killed
Israel.
At the time Israel had a hoe in his
hands working but when commanded
to throw up his hands he dropped the
hoe The coroner's inquest was held
this afternoon, the verdict being that
deceased came to his death from a
gunshot wound, the gun being in the
hands of Jesse Bush. Immediately
after the killing this morning, Bush
came to the city and delivered himself
to the sheriff. He is in the county
Jail.
Israel is survived by a wife and two
children. He was recently indicted in
the magistrates court for hugging and
kissing the wife of his brother-in-law
against her consent. The case was
compromised.

IMPORTANT DECISION.
i.e:aacrcG iy Judge Prince OF Circuit
Coi.;---!t 3gects Confederate Vet
GRAMS.

Judge Geo. Z. Prince of II circuit
court has rendered decision III &
case which VIII be Of general interest
ana considerable Importance. He
holds that the acmof the legislature
which exempts Confederate veterans
4ron: the payment OF license taxes is
unconstitutional.
The ease came before him on an
appea. from the mayors court of the
CITY of Laurens. John Wade Anderson
vas the appellant. Anderson is a Con-
cede,&te veteran. He undertook to
Go business in the city Of Laurens
without the payment OF license taxes,
and the mayor imposed a fine, holding
that the lew e::e1npcing veterans from
the payment ot the license taxes was
unconstitutional. anderson appealed
to the circuit court and Judge Prince
has Just rendered his decision.
the decision is very lengthy one,
covering pages of legal cap paper The
review OF the case, with the law bear
ing on the points at issue, are very
carefully and thoroughly reviewed.
The judges IN this state are not
given to apologizing for their de-
cis;ons. ard Judge Prince would be
the last man in the world to do q thing
Of that kind. However, in talking Of
the matter today he said he had tried
very hard to keep from deciding the
act unconstitutional, but had not been
able TO do SO. I'm my Judgment he
said, the law is unconstitutional, and
that is all there is to it. realize that
the decision, if it stands. VIII work
q hardship on a great many Confed-
crate veterans, but the law and the
constitution were before me, and
could arrive at no other decision. 1t
is hardly necessary for me to say, I
suppose. that I have as much sympa-
thy for the Confederate veterans as
any man in the State, but judge has
to do his duty as he sees it, just as
other people have to do, and have
simply discharged my duty as I saw
it. -
Judge Prince said he hoped the de-
c:sion would be reviewed by the su-
pren1e court, so the matter would be
finally settled.-Anderson Mail.
