HON. L. A. CLAI'K.
Hon. L. A. Clark was unani¬
mously elected to succeed himself.
This is quite a compliment to Mr.
Clark. It is the first time in many
years that a mayor has not had
any opposition. Mayor Clark’s
administration has been quite suc¬
cessful. He has placed to the
city’s credit over $2,000 in fines.
The following gentlemen were
elected without opposition to suc¬
ceed themselves.
Councilmen: C C. Brooks, 8
P. Thompson, C. A. Harwell, J
B. Davis, Jr., C. A. Sockwell, H.

as the building of a handsome

FRANKLIN MOSES
ASPHYXIATED.
Was at One Time Governor of
South Carolina—A Noto¬
rious Scalawag.
A recent dispatch from Bostoi,
Mass states that Franklin J. Mos¬
es has been asphyxiated. He was
a governor of South Carolina dur¬
ing the davs of reconstruction, and
a more notorious scoundrel and ut
erly corrupt man never inhailed
tho balmy air of sunny Carolina
than was this consummate scala¬
wag, Moses. lie took a million
oi more of the States money and
appropriated it to his own use.
He built the finest mansion in the
South, flower gardens and drive¬
way would have compared favor¬
ably to Vanderbilt’s of today.
The Editor has visited this 'old
h /tne of Moses. Every kind of a
tree, and fluwer that was known
to bntamsto, could be found in the
magnificent gardens. Moses
spent money so recklessly that
even his conspirators were asham¬
ed of him and deserted him. He
was forced to leave Carolina, and
for years he lived in the North in
the same style that he had lived in
Carolina, but finally he lost every
thing he had and was reduced to
extreme proverty. He had seve¬
ral term s in the penitentiary, tfm
last improsonment was f jr thirty
days for the larceny of an over¬
coat Moses came from as honor
f’ U term, R. R. Fowler, N. Z. An¬
derson.
Unexpired term of J G. Lester,
E II Jordan.
The election passed off very
quitely.
All of of the gentlemen are to
be congratulated. They have been
faithful to their trusts, aud merit¬
ed the compliment that was paid
them Wednesday.

and intelligent ancestry as Caro¬
lina can 1'^st of. He was simply
the black sheep of the family.
His name became «o odious in
Carolna, that his brothers and
relatives had their names changed
Very f«w tears will be shed over
the grave of F. J. Moses. Most
men, even among the worst, have
an eLent of goodnessm in thmn;
But if Moses ever possessed a
single redeeming trait, it has nev¬
er been dicovered. The purpose
Moses served for the last forty
years in reminding South Carolina
of the darkest crimes in the world’s
history, that were iuflicted upon
the South by the North.
