The march was from Mclntosh to Snelsonville, a distant of 4 miles Their were coutinual cheering fer Harrison, Morton and 'Mclver the whole way; now aud then some mischievous fellow W'ould yell out: “Hurrah for Nornun” Several vehicles were inline The ti rat one bore Rev F, Sue! son, second carried Capt. L, M Pleasant,, the third held our most popular friend J E Whiteman: next • came was the great gaueedate speak er, Rev W H.

Next was Prof. S. B, Mbrsa of Savannah, styled as the "Ladies Pet” Uis speech!wasivery interesting throughout: he told now vlgourously the Republicans leaders fought to carry their county, Chatham, but like many other places counted out. The next speaker was who is known as our“ Doll Baby”, Capt, L. M. Pleasant. His speech and advice we know is always interesting, for he always "Getthere Eli.” Our next speaker was our loving “Business Boy” J.

Since the roVr in Yatsacraw on Thanks giving' Day lorty persons have been ar rested tor alleged rioting, etc. Among the number are several women who have been heavily fin»d. Many oases liavo beeu turned over to the Superior Court lor prosecution, and no doubt many in uoceut people have been incarcerated for the alleged beating of linemen McMurry and Cronin and the man Crim mins; The evidence at the coroner’s inquest ol Mike Tillman who was killed in the difficulty, showed that policeman McM ur | ry did the only shooting at the time; yet the jury tells an intelligent public that he was killed by some unknown party during a riot. The fact is far as we can learn there was no riot at the time the unfortunate man was killed. He was trying to escape from McMurry wheu tho lattar shot him repeatedly. McMurry has been a citizen of the United States for about fifteen mouths it is said, aud may think he cau shoot down a Negro beeause he resists arrest and tries to escape. The law does not uphold a policeman when he shoots a prisoner who is trying to escape a sim ple arrest. McMurry has by his ignor ance of our laws not only taken a human life but has imperilled the wellfare of our whole cijy. The good people of our city, white aud black should he unani mous iu condemning the unlawful use of the pistol by the police and it is expect ed that Solictor General Fraser will call the atteuticn of the grand jury uow iu session to the matter. The property owtiera and law abiding eitizens "of Savannah have much at stake to allow the authors of the repeat disturbance to go by un-notieed wheth er they be policemen, or citizens, white or black. The well the whole people is concerned, and those who pre-. cipitfitvd the row whether policeman or cit izeu should be held to a rigidjaccount ability by the law.
