R. M. To Vo, Comptroller-—Dear Sir:
Public office is a public trust. Public
offices are created for the services
of the people, and not the aggrandise
ment of a few individuals. 'She prac
tice of bartering department clerk
ships for private %ain is a disgrace to
the public service, and in this nefari
ous traffic you are a record-breaker.
You have robbed the state's em
ployes, and your Incompetent admin
istration has permitted others to rob
the s ate. The man who, claiming
to he a Christian, depritjts others of
employment is a hypooand a ty
rant. If the boat of Democratic spoils
nien-yoliticians of this state of ihe Mc
Gougney, Robbins,, Sebastian, Round
tree type, had such a thing about them
as a conscience in a healthy state of
activity they could not look a Repub
lican in the face without blushing.
“The greatest mind that 8ver gave
its wisdom to the world, tho wisdom
almost capable of umpiring the mu
tiny between right and wrong, said:
‘You take my life when you do take
from me the means by which I live.
If that be true, you arc a murderer
of the (j^epest crimson hue. Although
I cannot help mystolf before laying iny
life’s burden down, I shall strike a
blow, feeble though it be. for the good
of my deserving follow-man.
For the right against the wrong,
for the weak against the strong,
Yours truly, W. G. Hill.”

LYNCHING IN NORTH STATE.
John Osborne Pays Penalty For an
Assault.
Cnmlo-tG, N. C., July 4.-—John
borne, the negro charged with crimin
ally assaulting Mrs. Lizzie Wentz,
white woman, aged G4 years, in Union
countv. Sunday night, paid the penal
ty with his life.
Ho was taken from the officers who
were conveying him to the Union
county jail . and . . lynched . . at . a point * l /
mile.* from Indian Trail, a elation on
w, the Carolina , Central * i railroad. ii . The
lynching party was composed of
eral hundred people and the two men
who had charge of the prisoner were
easily overpowered.
Osborne received a preliminary
hearii. during b:o afternoon and was
Committed to Jail to await the next
term of Union county superior court,
It is said that the negro made a full
confession of the crime before he was
lynched.
Frank Kezziah and Luke Horton
were deputized to take the prisoner to
Monrco and lodge him in jai!. Af
ter they had traveled about 2 miles
of the distance, and wnea they were
in the midst of a body of dense wood
land, they wore halted by a mob,
who pulled the negro rrom the buggy
and made Kezziah and Horton drive
.
on. Tho negro was not secured with
out a struggle. Kezziah fired one shot
at the mob before he was disarmed,
The mob lost no time in tying a rope j
around the negro’s neck and hanging
him ixi the limb of a tree near the
roadside.
John Osborne, the lynched negro,
was about 24 years old. He bore
a bad reputation and had been ac
cused of committing criminal assault*
previous to the commission of the
crime for which he was lynched.
Mrs Wentz is in a critical condi
tion. There is no excitement in the
neighborhood.

Shooting of an Officer by a Negro, and
Subsequent Attempt to Lynch Mur
derer, Resulted In Race Riot—Ne
gro Dives Ransacked.
Evansville, July 6.—Race prejudice
between blacks and whites brought on
a reign oL terror here Sunday, which
has not ended. All of last night and
all day yesterday armed men threat
ened the lives of citizens. Gun stores
were broken open and weapons and
ammunition were seized by blacks and
whites. The county jail is partly
wrecked, and an angTy mob of 2,000
whites broke in to aunt for a black
victim; the wall was forced with a
haltering ram; negro dives were ran
sacked and shot to pieces in the search
for the black and an armed company
of drilled blacks marched through the
streets threatening the lives -of all
whites.
Cause of the Riot.
The race riot was the immediate
outcome of the shooting of Patrolman
Massey Friday night by Lee Brown, a
negro. Brown and anofiher negro
had engaged in a quarrel, and Brown
had sworn to kill his antagonist. Ha
ran toward his home to secure a re
volver, and Patrolman Massey, hear
ing of the trouble, lay in wait for
Brown. As the negro came Hack
armed, hunting his enemy, Massey
stepped from a doorway and laid his
hand on Brown’s shoulder. Brown
turned quickly, a revolver in his hand,
and shot the policeman in the abdo
men. The officer as he lay on the
sidewalk, fired at Brown and wounded
him dangerously.
Patrolman Massey afterward died
from the effects of his wound.
Brown was arresetd and hurriedly
placed in the Evansville jail.

Military Encampment.
Birmingham. Ala., July 6.—There
seems now to be no doubt but that
the Third regiment of the Alabama na
tional guard, which Includes the Bir
mingham companies, will go into
annual encampment at Montgomery.
The capital city has offered $1,200 as
a bonus to secure the encampment,
and there, seems to be no substantial
objection to having it held there. It
le estimated that the soldier boys will
spend about $16,000 in Montgomery
if the encampment is held there. The
First Alabama regiment will camp at
Mobile this year, some time during the
month of August, fi Is thought.

Rome, July 6.—The text of the but

“Although his holiness passed the
night almost without sleep, he is mJt

the condition of his chest is normal.
There is a slight cough with some ca

still weak, but not Intermittent and the
temperature is below normal. The con

cannot be described as better, but it

that It wag foared that possibly it was
only the last flickering of the vital
flame.
During this brighter Interval, tie
pope resumed his habits of command
and insisted on giving orders for the
preparation of the brief appointing
Monsignor Volponi, actually secretary
of letters to princes, as secretary to
the Conststorlal congregation, a post
vacant owing to the promotion of Mon
signor Noeella. to the Cardinate. The
importance of such an appointment,
especially at the present moment, is
manifest when It Is considered that at
the pope’s death the secretary of stata
ceases to exercise his functions, which
are assumed immediately by the sec
retary of the Conslstorial congregation.
