provocation they draw the concealed

their race dead.
Not such large per cent. Of the hot
supper and church rows would be at
tended by serious consequences wereli
not for the ready pistol. We have been
informed by some of the older negroes
that when one of these alterations oc-
ours at negro gatherings fully hall
dozen pistols are drawn, indicating that
the practice of carrying concealedweap-
ons among negroes is growing. When
the negro who stole the horse and mule
in the Horns Creek neighborhood Sun
day night was arrested on the North
Augusta bridge early Monday morning
as the result of telephone message to
the Augusta authorities, a concealed
pistol was found on him.
Unless the law prohibiting the carry
ing of pistols concealed is more rlgldiy
enforced, the practice will grow and
the number of murders will continue to
increase. When a pistol is found con-
cealed, the maximum penalty should be
imposed. AS long as the offense is
treated lightly, the nuisance will not
only be unabated but will increase.

7ating the prohibition law every place
that retailed whiskey was closed. That
has been the lawin this State for some
time but we haven't heard that the CT
ficers Of the law have been instructed
to close blind tigers. There must be
several hundred license holders in Char
lesion alone.
This, however, suggests the question
that the national government should
not issue license to violate State
law. The wishes of the people of a
State or county should be respected.
And our prediction is that the day is
not far distant when public sentiment
will force congress to prohibit the
issuing of liquor licenses in dry ter

Jail Caught Fire.

Several times the grand jury has
recommended that some changes and
improvements be made in the jail for
the protection of prisoners. The fire
which occurred in the kitchen of the
jail Sunday emphasizes the necessity
for these improvements. At present
there is only one exit from the two up
per stories, and that is by a stairway
leading down into thekitchen. Had the
fire Sunday made such headway that
the flames could not have been extin-
guished, making it too impossible to
remove the prisoners, the four or five
human beings that were locked on the
second and third stories would have
been roasted alive. This is horrible to
contemplate, and yet it is liable to
occur any time.
Several grand juries have in the past
recommended that stairway be placed
in the hall leading to the second floor.
This would afford another means of
escape should fire make the use of the
one leading down into the kitchen i'm
possible. This matter should receive
attention at once. We have also been
informed that the roof of the Jail leaks
and is badly in need of repair. These
matters should receive prompt atten-
ton.
