CASE OF HARRY COLEMAN
Unnatural Son Who Murdered His
Father.

Union county has again proved that
It has men who, when serious, difficult
and delicate duties are entrusted them
will act Justly and fairly for the entire
citizenship in standing for that which
will mean better enforcement Of law
an order, and this despite the general
BELIEF that no conviction could be had
in the Harry Coleman case.
1t was not because the public gener-
ally believed Harry Coleman innocent
that they prophesied and expected an
other mistrial, but because there was
lacking a faith in the honesty, integ-
rity and intelligence Of the men who
might be placed on the jury to try him.
But in this, as in other cases, popular
feeling has been i'll founded, for there
are as many law loving, sterling and
upright men and Jurors here as there
are in any county anywhere. The main
trouble seems to be that the people at
large have not enough confidence in
men, nor a strong enough desire for
the enforcement Of law, and by this
very doubtful attitude condone and
make more possible triff1ing with JUS
tice.
The Coleman case is perhaps one of
the most remarkable that has been
tried in Union county in decades, If
ever before At the third trial the pris-
oner at the bar appeared as callous
when confronted with evidence as to
his low moral status, Of his drinking
and gambling with negroes and other
disreputable conduct as when his case
was first tried, and in the face of the
strong circumstantial evidence that 1t
was he who, without mercy, assassl-

To Aid Live Stock lndustry.-As-
sistant Secretary Galloway, Of the de-
partment of agriculture. says Wash
ington dispatch to the News and Cou-
rier, has tentatively agreed with Rep
resentative Lever, chairman Of the
house committee on agriculture, upon
a plan for the encouragement Of the
live stock industry In South Carolina
The idea Is to select about fifteen
counties where the greatest interest is
manifested in the movement and then
to apportion these counties between
two experts who will cooperate with
Clemson college and the departments
present farm demonstrators In the Pal
metto state.
After these persons. acting together
shall have organized live stock associ-
ations in the respective counties the
regular business of live stock demon
stration will begin.

arraignment possible under the cir
cumstances.

the mood Of the people, and was read
and referred to constantly Smith. then
residing at Pinckneyville, Union dis
trict, had exerted every nerve to Sc
cure the election Of his old friend, W.
H. Crawford. The newspaper burles-
que said the Jackson horse strode
through the state Of Tennessee with
utmost speed, on through North Caro-
lima with almost equal velocity. and
into South Carolina, where, although
man named Smith, at Pinckneyville
rushed in and tried to scare him of
the track for the Georgia horse to get
ahead, the Jackson horse jumped over
him, stretching himself and losing no
time until he reached the Georgia line.
Caleb Clarke facetiously remarked to
Judge Smith, on meeting him soon af-
ter reading the piece, We'll, Judge, the
Jackson horse was too much for you
ran over you; you could not scare him
off the track" He would have been
had he been bridle- wise, sir" hissed
Judge Smith in his sarcastic tone.
His schoolmate Jackson, however,
bore no grudge against Smith for. his
superior affection for Crawford, and
their sameness Of political creed ce-
mented and strengthened their earlier
ties. After Judge Smith removed to
Alabama, Jackson appointed him a
Judge Of the supreme court, but he de-
clined to accept the high position.
Judge Smith built very handsome
residence on Turkey creek, but return
ed again to q village life. Here he al
ways dispensed much elegant hospital
ity both to strangers and to townsmen.
Some of the handsomest entertain
ments I have ever attended, were din
ners given by him; and dancing par
ties with music and fine suppers, were
frequently enjoyed in his pleasant man
sion. He improved the beautiful lot
and built the handsome house now
owned by Robert G. McCaw, Esq. but
before he completed his designs, he re-
moved to Huntsville, Alabama, where
he built for himself a palatial resi-
dence.
His manner Of speaking was consid-
erably sententious, and his pithy re-
marks frequently impressed themselves
upon ones memory when the same
words from another's lips would have
been forgotten. Mr.. Bob Cooper once
said, well, Judge, you have done a
great deal toward Improvement; you
have built fine house on Turkey creek
and one in Yorkville-now you ought
to build a MILL"
II have often noticed, Mr.. Cooper.
that q mill was a fine thing for the
neighborhood, but bad thing for tie
owner" In the trite reply is a proof
made manifest to many who have had
experience to test the matter.
Nothing could show the devoted at
tachment of this stern Judge more
strongly than the habit Of removing
his daughters body wherever he went.
She was his only child. She married
and died early, but her bones found
not final resting place until they were
taken by her father to Alabama, where
be now lies beside her.

mated his aged father while the latter
was alone and unconscious Of impend-
ing danger, he did not shift his gaze or
give any sign Of emotion.
Judge Devore we'll said that the jury
in recommending mercy had asked for
a degree of clemency toward the pris-
oner, which the young man himself
had apparently not felt or exercised
toward the parent who in countless
ways, and for years had provided him
with his necessities and pleasures, set
ting him an example Of honest, upright
living, and endeavored to train him in
a way that would make him a useful
citizen.
The thought Of this aged man shot
down and dying in his own blood,
without opportunity tn raise finger
In his own defense, should haunt the
murderer to his dying day, and II there
should be any who have guilty
knowledge Of this crime and who have
remained silent up to this time, as
there is a God in heaven who stands
for justice, and who will avenge the
shedding Of innocent blood, so with
grim certainty win the one having
such knowledge be tormented and tor
tured Of mind and body until in their
anguish they will some day cry out
and let the truth be known.
Comment on this case would be In
complete without referring to the able
manner in which the prosecution was
conducted by Solicitor A. E. Hill.
Though young in years and by many
considered immature In experience
when he sought the office Of solicitor,
and for that reason opposed by those
who wished to have such an officer to
be more mature and versed in law, So
licitor Hill has surprised his friends as
well as those who did not vote for him.
by his force vigor, yet withal fair man
ner with which he has represented the
state and endeavored to see that the
law was enforced and criminals pun
ished. And the very fact that having
an officer who Is wide-awake, earnest
and has the ability to see when by ex-
ercising quickness and discretion he
can checkmate efforts that he consid-
ers might tend toward frustrating JUS
tice, will come to make the public re-
gard the law more seriously than 1t
has been, and accordingly will cause
justice to be better administered
