THE BARNWELL LYNCHING.

Two negroes in Barnwell county, Is
miles from the Court House, murdered
a prominent farmer. Some neighbors of
the dead man next day murdered the
two negroes.
These were most ~deplorable incidents
and are to be vigorously condemned.
Nevertheless, there is no occasion for
surprise. When negroes kill a good
white man in this State in a locality re-
mote from jails, sheriffs and policemen
they are frequently and promptly
slaughtered. This is wrong, it is ruff
ianly conduct and, according to the
statutes which the white people of
South Carolina make and construe, it is
murder. But the white people of South
Carolina refuse in many emergencies to
deal with the negroes as they deal with
themselves and some generations must
live and die before they will change
their habit.
The root of all the trouble lies in the
clothing of the negroes with the rights
and privileges of citizenship, for which
they are not fit. For this the North is
responsible.
The old Abolition, now Republican,
party of the North has endeavored to
set up a social and political system in
the South which contradicts the nat
ural laws of civilized society.
If the negroes were not artifcially
placed on the political plane of the
whites, laws for their control could be
devised which would prevent lynching.
The endeavor to treat black semi
barbarians as the equals in law of white
men inevitably leads to occasional out

BUILD ROADS.

Never have the people been so able
as now to buy good things but the time
has not come when they should buy
things they do not need.
More than any other material thing
they need good roads. Good roads are
short roads to all kinds of improvement.
We wish the people of this county would
build 40 miles of permanent good roads
across the county this year. In that
event they would build more next year.
Taxation is the only way. We are
likely to have "better times" than we
now have.

The MUIR der of Mrs. Hollister.

Mrs. Franklin C. Hollister, whose
brutal murder by Richards Iyens has

an empty house 10 Montana street for
hours before she was killed by gang of
five young hoodlums, of which her STAY
er was one, according to a story which
has just been told to the police.
The story confirms the theory upon

she had been kept there several hours,

These are small cards Of the very simplest

Berlin, Jan. 10 The German press
in discussing the approaching Pan
American Congress, denounces the Mon
roe doctrine. The newspapers accuse
the American government of making
systematic attempts to extend the scope
of this doctrine. The fact that Secre-
tary Root intends to attend the coming
Congress is given as proof that the
United States government is encouraging
the Pan American movement.

The members OF the State Legislature
who have offered good roads bills are
keenly disappointed by discovery that
their efforts will probably be 10 vain.
The plans of the good roads men 90 far
as creating a fund by increasing the State
tax for this special purpose is concerned,
are knocked all awry. 1t appears that
under section 1S9 of the constitution
such special tax as contemplated is
prohibited. But the general State tax
rate of 20 cents for the expenses of gov
eminent and the Indebtedness OF the
State may be increased. 1t would be
possible therefore to raise the amount
needed for road building by this means.
The new constitution, it seems, will be
block to many measures introduced in
the legislature.

FRIDAY EVENING. JAN. 10, 1866.

To-Day has been observed as legal
holiday in the State of Virginia, in
honor Of the birth of Robert E. Lee, one
Of the greatest men ever born in the Old
Dominion or anywhere else on the globe.
His life has been viewed from every
standpoint by historians during the past
third of century. Many who have
taken the pen were in no way inter
ested in the cause for which he ex-
erted all his military skill for four years.
This class we're therefore impartial, but
after having studied him as one OF ma
lures noblemsD, gifted with extraordl'
nary genius, of the gentlest aud most
considerste nature, and animated
throughout life by Christian principles,
,hey have found no vulnerable point, and
vie with his admirers in according him
the praise he deserves. There are many
Incidents 10 the life of She great Virgin
iaus which appeal to all lovers of great
and good men. The last chapters are
especially suggestive, as in them the
true greatness of the man shines forth.
Rising superior TO difficulties and disap-
pointments is of all life's issues the most
difficult. The ambitious and enviOus
fud it peculiarly trying, especially
those conscious of possessing genius. 1t
WAS different with Robert E. Lee. He
retired from scenes Of strife, and, far
from the madding crowd, was greater in
defeat than in victory, and his star is
now and ever will be the alpha of great
constellation.

The Moroccan Conference.

Algeciras, Spain, Jan. 1.-THE dele
gates of Morocco to the international
conference now in session here are max
ing strong play to counteract the ar
engagements being made by the powers
for reforming the financial system and
police service. They are trying to use
the favorite method of Abdul Hamid,
Sultan of Turkey in his various disputes
with the European governments Of SET
ting the powers against one another in
order to head Of the adoption of regu-
laiions which they feel will be unde-
sirable for Morocco. So far, however,
their efforts in this direction have not
met with any success and ii is not likely
that they will. The only hope of the
Moroccan representatives lies in The
possibility OF Germany lending them
assistance in order to strengthen her
hand 10 Morocco. This hope, however,
is very slight, as the German represent
atves are conducting themselves with
strict correctness. The powers are pre-
seuting a united front in support of the
necessity of internal reforms in Morocco.
There is some danger that the Moroc-
can delegates will threaten TO withdraw
from the conference # the powers carry
their insistence upon reforms to ex-
tremes. What the result would be then
no one will venture to predict. II is
probable, however, that the conference
would continue, and that after COM
plete programme for reforms had
been drawn up, the powers would insist
u on Morocco approving them.
