NEW CON Constructed So As to Maintaia White Supremacy. Columbia, S. C., Nov. 28.—South Carolina's Constitutional Convention will adjourn sine die next Tuesday. All the work of the convention has now been completed, except that of final revision of the changes made in the Constitution, which is in the hands of a committee. The body has been in session continuously with the exception of a ten days recess, since the tenth of September. The new Constitution will be differ- ent in many respects from the one it will supersede. The most import ant change will be in the sufirage article. In round numbers there are 140,000 adult male negroes and 100,000 adult maie whites in South Carolina. The present Constitution of South Carolina was adopted in 1868 and was framed by a conven- tion composed mostly of recently liberated slaves and dominated by Northerners, who came into the State at the close of the war. It was patterned after those of Massa chusetts and Ohio. The greatest objection to it was against the suf- frage article, which bestowed the franchise on all male citizens of the age of 21 years and upwards, not laboring under certain disabilities named. Some of the most intelli gent negro members of the conven tion of 1868 were opposed to uni- versal suffrage and wanted on educational qualification imposed, which would haye prevented a vast majority of the members of their own race from voting. The present Coxstitution provides a natural negro majority of 40,000, which has been overcome by an in- genious registration law, which re quired euch officer tu be voted for in a separate box, the voter being com. pelled to select the proper box. The leading men of the State have always recognized that there wasa possibilty of one or the other or both ot them being overturned in the Federal courts. This possibility induced them to advocate the calling ofaconvention for the purpose of framing a Constitution permitting such qualification of the suffrage as would insure maintenance of white supremacy. There was great ob- jection to the calling of the conven- tion from the illiterate whites There are about 15,000 illiterate white adult males in this State. The con- vention could neyer have been called had not most explicit promises been given that these men would be taken care of. How to cut down the negro ma- jority and preserve the vote of the white mer, and to do itin sucha way as to run the gauntlet of the Federal Courts was the difficuls problem which engaged the atten- tion of the convention, in which there are only six negroes. Senator Tillman, who led the tight for the calling of the convention, was made Chairman of the Suffrage Committee.

New York, Nov. 27.—President Cleveland may imitate President U. S. Grant by taking a trip around the world before trying for a third term. E. C.

Ifa Democratic Congress would not heed Secretary Carlisle's argu munt for a retirement of the green backs or his plea for authority to issue Treasury certificates to meet temporary deficits, a Republican Congress is not likely todo so. It will probably be thought “better politics” to force the Administration tofanother bond issue at a high rate of interest. ‘his would work up into excellent “campaign thunder’, on the stump. The cost to the country would of course not be con sidered by “smart” politicians of the Reed and}Dingley and Chandler type. What any other Government in the world would do in a similar emergency would be to put an extra tax of $1 a barrel on beer until there isno longer need of it. It would yield just the revenue desired. But this is probably too simple and business like to be adopted. The Republican leaders are urged by the newspapers of their party to reverse the process of the McKinley law. The duties were raised in nearly every sched ule of that bill with the avowed purpose of diminishing revenues, through decreased importations. It is now proposed to increase the revenues by increasing the duties— a paradox of protection too palpable to deceive any except the ignorant Of course there is no expectation that President Cleveland will ap prove any bill taxing wool of restor ing any other feature of McKinley ism.

According to the story related by a number prisoners in the jail, Pat Crowe had a hand in the affair. Crowe and Harris, so the other pris- Oners say,{have been running things in the jail to suit themselyes. Har- ris had a grudge against Anderson and the two have frequently quarrel- ed. When Anderson entered the cel) occupied by {Edward Grooms 10 o'clock this morning and found Crowe and Harris in there the quar- rel was renewed. Harris cursed and abused Anderson, and when the lat- ter attempted to quiet him down he pulled a revolver from his pocket and shot Anderson in the left side. During the knock-down-and-drag-out fight that ensued before Sheriff And- riano could get into the jail Harris was badly cut over the head with a knife in the hands of some of the other prisoners. Charles Frogge,an Atchison county prisoner, who was loged in jail Monday, it is believed to be the man who carved Harris, as Deputy Sheriff Noland relieved him of a long-bladed knife when his cell was searched. Qne of Harris’ ears was badly cut, a finger was mashed and he has several serious scalp wounds. Drs. Bell and Crothere were called to attend Harris and An- derson, and they were unable to say on first examination whether the wound would prove fatal or not. Drs. Electric Bitters. Electric bitters is a medicine suit- ed for any season, but perhaps more generally needed, when the languid exhausted feeling prevails, when the liver is torpid and sluggish and the need of a tonic and alterative is felt. A prompt use of this medicine has often averted long and perhaps fatal bilious fevers. No medicine will act more surely in counteracting and freeing the system from the maiarial poison. Headache, indigestion, Constipation, Dizziness yield to Electric Bitters. 50c and $1 per bot- tle at drug stores. 1-4t Lincoln, Neb., Nov. 28—A.
