We fear that many will not be able to

have discharged their duty toward the
church building here. Many have
done nothing, others have not worked
enough to get weary. But the promise
is to the faithful. And so our church
is moving on just the same.

NEW YORK, Feb. 2S.--A petition in

nance came to a sudden end when

Among the reasons assigned for
Captain Collins action to-day are the
suits brought against him by the Rus

AWFUL MURDER
IN MOUNTAINS
ENTTCED FROM HOME AND
HEAD BEATEN ENTIRELY
.
FROM BODY.

Giving an account Of horrible
crime committed in Dickinson and
Wise counties, T. J. Fleming. sheriff
of Dickinson county, in letter to the
governors Office, received Thursday
describes the affair.
Sheriff Fleming says that A
Howell. who lived In the wild noun
famous section of Dickinson county
was enticed from his home by a gang
of unknown men and taken TO Wise
county where he was brutality muir
dered. Howell's head was beaten en-
tirely from his body, which was not
discovered for nearly two weeks at
forwards. The murdered man was
taken from his home on Feb. 6.
The letter does not give any reason
for the horrible crime but 1t Is thought
the man must have been involved in
some feud among the mountaineers
of the district. Robbery has also
been assigned as the motive.
No reward Is asked for from the
governor and the local authorities are
at work on the case.

reimbursement of the negro as 1.-The
crime of all history" which was fol-
lowed by a plan of 'robbery--right-
eous robbery-at the ballot box to
preserve Anglo-Saxon civilization"
However, the time came, said he.
when bad men began to cheat their
own brethren at the ballot box. Then
1t was resolved that there should be
no excuse or pretense for anybody to
cheat anybody. This led to the call
ing Of the Constitutional Convention
held nine years ago to correct the
outrageous evils gnowing out of the
terrible suffrage conditions then ex-
isting.
When a bad man was nominated
the people were confronted with the
necessity OF supporting him or con-
sorting with the negro" 1t was these
conditions, said he. which brought
about the constitutional convention.
He described at length the care that
had been placed on every word of
the suffrage clauses In the new organic
law. He raid II was devised TO dis
franchise no white man, and IL any
white man failed to gsr on the roll
OF voters II was his own fault--not
the fault OF the white men who fran
ed the constitution. The work had
DfeI bGHE WIN GASn care Inat III the
nine years not a line of the instru-
ment had been set aside on appeals TO
the Supreme Court, and yet. within
the limits of the Federal constitution.
IL had reduced the negro vote from
LAT 900 to 5000. The intent of the
constitution-maker OF whom the
speaker WAS one, was to safeguard
the ballot from the purchaseable and
ignorant vote. 1t was impossible to
legislate against the negro as such.
so it was against the characteristics
OF the negro that legislation was d.
rected. The constitutional convention
knew that ore Of the virtues of the
negro was Tot thrift. II was their
purpose that no man or interest should
pay any ather mans poll taxes. Every
man should pay such poll taxes, per-
'sonaliy. out of his own funds. These
provisions were put In the law by de-
sign Particular attention had been
given 70 the registration requirements
They had been Undecided In the con-
stitution. Yet tfey have been dissr.-
garsiesf by the registrars from one end
OF the Commonwealth TO the other.
