THE GOVERNORS MESSAGE.

The Governors message to the
legislature was a most interesting,
document, all right, but the Herald
confesses disappointment in the
document, nevertheless.
Like all of his predecessors he
touched solely m political issues.
The economical welfare of the state
is left still without a rudder.
Where one hundred thousand farm
hands are needed, We are asked to
swallow statutory prohibition.
Where taxes are increasing, land
values decreasing, and thousands of
acres going to waste for want Of
labor, he recommends a bond issue
to prevent deficiencies in the fund
to meet increased salaries of state
officials.
This is doubtless a good quality
Of craftsmanship, but it is Of the

MR.. IVES CROWELL
KILLED BY NEGRO.
Mob Pursues the Murderer But Is
Evaded by Deputy Sheriff.

On last Sunday evening Barry Grit,
fifth, a negro, was crossing the Southern
Railroad bridge at Fort Loring, and,
not having money enough to pay the
toll, became very i%mpudent to Mr.. Yves
Crowell, the bridge tender. Mr.
Crowell attempted to chastise him,
when the negro seized a heavy piece Of
timber and dealt Mr.. Crowell a blow on
the head which fractured his skull and
produced almost instant death.
The negro proceeded to Capt. Walter
Pillow, on whose plantation he lived
and surrendered to him, who turned
him over to Deputy Sheriff Champ
Taylor
4 mob was in hot pursuit Of Griffith,
but Mr.. Taylor evaded its members and
got Griffith to a place Of safety.
Circuit court being in session, the
grand jury will take the matter up
promptly, and the negro will be given
an early trial and receive speedy pun
ishment for his diaboIical deed.
MIR. Trowell was formerly a citizen Of
Eppora, where his remains were taken
tor iuterment.

Browns Reasons for Opposing Bond
Issue.

Editor Common WEALTH. would like
to state, through the columns Of your
paper, some OF the reasons why | OPP
posed the issuance and sale Of the road
and bridge bonds.
|. A petition was presented to the
Board against the issuance Of the bonds,
and the people should have been given
an opportunity to vote and decide the
matter for themselves.
2. think the Board Of Supervisors
have been too extravagant In paying
S55 to 800 per mile for roads that are
not worked.
g. am opposed to buying such *
pensive thing and street culvert pipe,
when the freight alone on such material
costs the county as much as would a
bridge made from the best cypress
lumber.
lai desire to state that | am op-
posed to tne present method OF letting
the public contracts. l have no OBJ
lection to sealed bids, but see no legiti-
mate reason why they could not be
publicly opened.
In your next issue l would like to dis
Isl the bond issue more fully.
