LET HIM GO HANG.

More disheartening that lynchings to MT. William Lloyd Garrison II as a friend of equal rights is the ac- duiescence of such men as ex-President Cleveland, President Eliot. of Harvard. and pishop Lawrence. Of Massachus- @ orad raee). in the nullification of the Fifteenth Amendment and the matnten- ance of caste schools. What The Ob- server would like to do with MT Gar rison is to tie him and Senator Tillman over a clothes-line by the toes and let them have 1t out.-Charlotte Observer.
 It is, quite evident that this second edition of the Garrison brood came on the stage about half a century too late. He is a decided misfit at this stage. The original William flourished when cir stances and conditions were fa- vorable to his brand of politicians. The anti slavery sentiment was dominant almost everywhere North of Mason & Dixon's line. People focked to hear this apostle of abolitionism and his invectives and furious fulminations against Southerners generally and Southern slave-holders particularly fell on greedily listening ears. If he had proposed to lead an army South to murder the owners and free the slaves he would have found plenty of willing recruits, no doubt. That he was an apostle of evil is beyond doubt, but he was an apostle at time and period when he wielded immense influence.
 This new edition should be put on cold storage or packed away with liberal supply of moth-balls. There are no more slave holders to be robbed and no more ignorant negroes to be freed and catapulted into society and politics. The gospel of hate has lost most of it's force. The pretence that the negro Is the equal of the white man in all respects has practically been shorn of its vitality and is only in sisted on by an occasional mouthing ranter whose skin is of the wrong color, whose birth was failure in the scheme of nature, and who is trying to prove himself an excrescence on the body of American citizenship.
 As for The Observers plan of pun ishment we are not sure that 1t would not come under the head of cruel ana unusual punishment and thus be barred. Whatever Tlllman may do or say. and however violent he may be at times. we do not admit that he should be put on an equality with Garrison, even over clothes-line. The nroper thing for William Lloyd to do is to seek a lonely spot and hang himself It gals him sorely to hnd good and patriotic men up North lik" inc ~es named by The Observer and lflss many thousands of others up there who are with the Southern peo- nle in their determination to separate the races in schools and fin the homes. All the rantlngs of his sort will not change the laws of nature or the de- termination of Southern people to manage this race business in their own way. The best public sentiment o1 the North is with us, but if It were not if would make no difference down here. We are not losing sleep over Garrison. If left alone perhaps he will bite himself and there an end of him.

ROWING TO THE rYRANr.

The Butte (Mont.) Inter- Mountain Of March 2s, has just reached our office. after an absence of six weeks. and its explanatory editorial opens with this paragraph:
 On February 1s, six weeks ago yes- ferday the publication of The Inter Mountain. and of all other newspapers in Butte and Anaconda, was suspend enforce a demand for an advanced scale of wages. It is due the press man mand f they e'1 were following the exam pie which had been furnished by the organizations of the printers and siarso'Seefi sition oP the "S puSIishers The tter made and announced an agreement that there would be no resumption un- \t.l such time as all question or inSes 6iItees relating to the conduct Of the business had been satisfactorily adjusted. It f fair tS all haVs to Seen amicably and for a period Of three years under guarantee of a contract signed by an pSrihes h bIiebae' SEnGePaea' wnra ane sustained by all of the labor organiza- tions after full consideration
 Things have reached a pretty pass indeed when all the newspapers of two thriving Western cities can be held up and forced to suspend busi- ness for six weeks at the orders and demands of any union. Is this the Freedom of the press about which Americans are wont to boast? Is 1t not rather the thraldom of serfs quail- ing before their masters? It Is one os the most discreditable examples of union intolerance and domination that we have noticed in long while. Tt is my part to command and yours to obey" says the autocrat, and the unions issued their orders to the Mon tana newspapers and the latter obeyed the edict.
 It Is no credit to The Inter-Moun- tain that 1t was permitted to resume publication with practically the same employees that had been with 1t before the surrender. We presume it was al lowed to do so as a concession for it's lack of independence in the first place If the unions had decreed that none of the original force should again be given employment we presume there would have been nothing left but sub- mission. The entire affair is not at all creditabIe to Western journalism The InteF- Mountain is good news paper and one that we value, but we sincerely regret this performance.

BUNDLEY's RECORD.
Hi. Attitude Toward Negro Education
 While He Was 6 Democrat.


 While He Was a Democrat.
 The following Is part of a letter recently written by a Republican of this State to Attorney General Bona parte at washingtin in reference to MT. O. R. Hundley's record in the Legislature of Alabama, before he left the Democratic Party and became a Republican:
 To the Attorney General of the United
 States of America:
 am directed by the Presidents Sec retary Hon. William Loeb, to bring to your attention the record of MT. Oscar R. Hundley, of Huntsville. Ala, whose name is under consideration by the President for appointment as Unit ed States Judge for the Northern Dis Hundley's attitude upon proposed amendment to the Section 2 of Article XI of the Constitution of Alabama, known as "the Hundley Amendment" submitted to the voters of Alabama, and defeated, August 6, 1894; wherein was provided that the money collect ed from persons of the white race. may education of children of the white race, and the money collected from persons of the colored race. may by law he applied exclusively to the education of children of the colored race" which proposed amendment to the Constitu- tion of Alabama may be found on page 1215 of the Acts of the Legislature of Alabama (1S92-93.)

AN Ircorsrsr. VI RECORD.

It was given out to the Associated Press by somebody at the White House last Saturday that MT. o. R Hundley would probably be named by President Roosevelt early this week for the new District Judgeship for Northern Alabama.
 This appears to have been prsma- ture. to say the least The appoint ment has not yet been announced, and it Is stated that there is still a strong protest being made against Hundley's nomination, not only by Democrats but also by Republicans. There Is yet hope that the appointment may be protested.
 The Advertiser has already voiced protest against this appointment. The bulk of well-informed Democrats in this State know that Hundley is not fit man for that position. though it is rumored that some of them have thoughtfessly yielded to solicitations from mutual friends to write letters about him. which might be construed as endorsements. Yet those Demo- orats know full well that there are other Republicans in the State much better fitted for the place than Hund- ley. and that they should have been more careful. Now that there seems to be a good chance for his success, some of them are very sorry of their hastiness. M
 On this page appears portion Of letter recently written by an Ala bama Republican protesting against Hundley's appointment. The Adver- tiser reproduces only the portion con- corning Hundley's public record when he was, a Democrat and in the Legis- lature upon the question of the negro school fund It seems that Hundley or his friends have been trying to min iaize this record. which is now very inconsistent when he is a Republican and seeking a high office from a Re- publican administration. When he was Democrat, he was frequently termed the artful dodger;" it looks as If his conversion to Republicanism has not improved his weakness in this respect.
 The Advertiser has not gone to it's files or to the original records in these matters, but it has very good general recollection of Mir. Hundley's course on that matter, because it has always opposed the proposition Hundley so assiduously used as a political stalk ing horse when he was a Democrat. This paper has no doubt of the sub stantial correctness of the quotations.
 Surely President Roosevelt with his admirable record for the highest class of men for judgeships will not name Hundley when all the facts are placed before him. If he must appoint a Republican, there are several of that party far more suitable and much more satisfactory to the bar of the State. If, however, he wants the highest type of man, a combination of brains, equip ment, experience and character, he will have to pass to the Democratic list of applicants. There has been no new crop of Republicans in Alabama since he waived them all aside a little while ago and appointed Judge Thomas G Jones to the vacancy here. It is tc be devoutly hoped that the, President will not make any appointment in vio- lent contrast to that admirable one.
