Indicted After a Decade.

Quite sensation has been sprung
in Saluda county recently by the
solicitor handing out an Indictment
charging Pope B. Havird, white, with
murder, and the grand jury returning
a true bill.
Some ten years ago negro named
Tom Scurry, living with Havird, very
suddenly and very mysteriously dis
appeared and he has never been seen
or heard of since. Recently a rumor
gained currency that Havird split
Scurry's head open with an axe while
they were splitting rails, and covered
the body with brush and logs and
burned it. This rumor, coming to the
ears of Solicitor Zimmerman, caused
him to make an investigation on the
quiet, with the results that he was
satisfied that there was enough in the
report to Justify him in handing out
an Indictment for murder, and the
grand jury evidently think there is
enough testimony to warrant a trial
of the case.
A bench warrant has been issued
for Havird and he is expected to be-
apprehended at once.
1t seems that seVeral now clalH W
have known of Havird's killing the
negro at the time it was done, but
they have kept it secret all these
years, until recently, when there was
falling out among them, and Havird
snd the parties who say they have
known of the murder all the time be-
gan to whisper it to first one and then
to another, until the report gained
circulation.
The reason they assign for Havird's
killing the negro is that Havird's barn
was burned and he charged Scurry
with it, and getting good chance,
put him out of the way for doing it:
Havird is the young white man who
was shot few years ago by John
Marlborough in such manner as that
one of his arms had to be amputated.

GEN. JONES ADDRESS.
Urqes All Democrats to Register, So
as to Be Able to Vote.

To the Democratic voters of South
Carolina: Fellow Democrats--ln
view of the great Indifference which
seems to exist among Democrats of
this State as to registering under the
new law requiring all voters to regis
ter this year, I feel it to be my duty
as your chairman to address you in
this public manner and urge you to
60 to your county seats at once and
register. There is no doubt about the
fact that the negroes are registering
in great numbers in some counties
and if the Democrats do not register
they cannotvote in the general elec-
ton in November next, and some OF
our Congressman may be defeated.
The electoral ticket of this State may
also be endangered by the failure of
the Democrats to register. The time
expires September 1, 1908, and after
that.it will be almost impossible to
be reregistered. We have heard of
late various threats that our represen-
tation in Congress would be reduced
by Republican Congress on account
of our small vote in the general elec-
ton. All indications now are that
the next House of Representatives
will be very close and the past history
of the Republican party proves that
that party will stop at nothing to
count in a working majority should it
be in power.
Now, fellow Democrats, do not al
low this serious charge to be made
against you, but 60 Immediately and
register, and be prepared to roll up
big majority for the Democratic elec-
toral ticket and also for our Congress
sional nominees. The Democratic
County Chairmen throughout the
State are urged to earnestly request
the Democrats in their respective
counties to attend to this important
matter at once and to use their best
efforts to get them out Immediately.
as the time expires for registration
September 1, 1908.
Very respectfully,
Willie Jones,
State Chairman.

CRIMINAL
PLOTTERS
Detectives Hired to Manufacture
Evidence to Send Innocent Union
Men to Prison.

One of the most astounding
stories of criminal plotting ever
produced is told in a recent issue
of the Pittsburg Leader. 1t laws
bare a plot to send innocent union
men to the penitentiary through
forged documents and perjured
testimony manufactured by detec-
tives of the Theil Detectives
Agency in the employ of corpo-
ton. The conspiracy involves the
proprietor of the Gazette Times of
Pittsburg, the Manufacturers as
ISOLATION, and government officials.
The conspiracy was frustrated
only by the confession of humble
tool who, striken with remorse at
the terrible crime he was aiding,
revealed the entire plot.
Seven members of the Machin-
lists, Union had been indicted for
using the mails for fraudulent
purpose, it being alleged that they
had sent lottery tickets to other
states through the mails and in
violation of the federal law.
e. J. Grant was employed as a
detective by the Oliver interests to
get "evidence' against the accused
machlnlStS. He served under
Dalrymple, a Thiel sleuth, who
laid the plans for the dirty work
Grants confession, made in a
sworn affidavit, shows the fol-
lowing facts: Grant got a soap
impression of the keys to the bust
ness office of the Machinists'
Union for Dalrymple, who was
thus able to steal several bundles
of rattle tickets of the union and
place forged contract in the desk
OF the business agent to incrimate
the union. Dalrymple drew up
the contract in the Office of the
subway interests. The document
was latter found by government
officials where Dalrymple said it
would be found.
The next thing done was to mail
number of packages of rattle
tickets to machinists' unions in
Pennsylvania and other states,
with the address written on
stationery of the local union and
then inform government officials in
various cities to which the matter
was addressed.
| Grant'a confession indicated
the seven union men who were
acquitted by the jury. And 50
the case stands in many respects
like that of the Haywood trial.
SO far as the manufacture of levi
dence' by detectives is concerned.
The Thiel Detective Agency was
intimately connected with the case
TOO, and a number of its sleuths
presented bills to the state of
Idaho for occasional "drunks7'
they enjoyed
The Leader is vigorous in its de-
mand that the scounderels who
plotted this work should be prose
cuted and 1T very pertinently asks,
"W1ll criminals go freef''

that can deprive Il citizen of his
liberty or property without the
facts in the ease having first been
determined by jury of his peers,
is revival of medieval barbarism.
Two serious problems confront
this nation today. Before them
all other questions sink into insig
nificance They are: First, allow
ing q supreme court of nine men
often by ii meager majority of one,
to pass upon the coustituIionality
of law solcmnly enacted by the
two houses of congress. In no CIV
illzed country in the world is such
a power exercised by courts of last
resort 1t is not conferred upon
our.supreme court by the national
constitution, and is 4 power which
the court arrogated to itself with
out any au hority whatsoever, eX-
| cept its own. Second, government
by injunction.
''lf the liberties of the American
people are to be maintained; if we
undergraduates a government of
the people, for the people, and by
the people; if we would prevent a
moneyed oligarchy from usurping
the rights OF the people, the power
to issue and enforce iniunctions in
'abor disputes must be token from
the courts. Persons must be pun
iSh2d for the crimes they have
committed when jury of their
peers has determined their guilt.
