PiXTivir.t.E, Ky., Nov. 4. Tho lawumd
order party havo at last, If not finally,
temporarily triumphed, and an uncertain
duration of prospective peaco Is at
hand. Wlls Howard and Wilson Jrin'
nlngs, and a few of tho mosVidcsponile
of their followers, havo fled tlio country
and gono to parts unknown, whllo tho
residue of tholr men havo scattered out
among th" mountains to engage In pursuits
much safer than attempting to
tho good people of Harlan County
and to bushwhack Judgo Lewis' party.
Ltttlo John Howard, Wlls' brother,
passed through hero Friday en routo to
Arknnaaa. Knvoral of Howards rclai
tlvjfrom.HArlfttttt.Cty,iBsti
whomi aro 'wealthy and Influent
citizens, but havo not taken fttf
band in tho troublo, oceompar.ed
Johnny to- this placo and rcmajjled
hero all day. It Is thought that pelt
purposo was to provide ways and ranj
for Wlla aafo transit or exit. ,Thoy
stated positively that thero woulikfot be
any further troublo In Harlan Htwcen
tho present vigilantes, and that iio law
and order party could with perfeA safety
dlannfaA (o their homes and bassurcd
that no ono of them would bolstnrbcd
again by Wlls Howard or aiy of his
men. This announcement dA'S not ac
cord with Howard's rcputatwn or the
solemn oaths ho has frcquAitly taken
and called upon his faltlful band to
witness, yet theio may besomo reason
to give It credence, us Howard ha
Wen rapidly losing ground since CoUaty
Judgn Lewis took tho liw in his own
hauds, nnd in defiance or tcrriblo throiU
and over tho willful neglect of duty on
tho part of tho other county officials undertook
to bring tho outlaws to Justlc.
Tho reverses In tho two fights producel
fear, distrust and cowardlco among
men, who refused to follow him oi
raids which ho proposed, and, choostn;
between fighting alono or fleeing, thi
leaders choso tho latter, which ha
been urged upon them by their frlendi
for somo tlmo. Ho tho report truo o
not, a restless Insecurity will cling ti
tho various citizens allied with Inlaw
and order party, for Howard's de
pernio hand may ithow itself at an;
hour by visitation upon their homes am
themselves tho vengeanco lie has swori
to take. Truly Harlan County suffer
from tho most Xerrlblo calamity In thi
naturo of a feud which over befol an;
pcoplo. Thero havo been five bold as
aasslnattons and fifteen other homlcldO;
growing out ot tho troublo, tho peaco o
tho county has been destroyed, whlli
prosperity Is merely nominal, and ycl
tho end Is not In sight.

HiruilxaiiAM. Ala.. Nov. . A largn
protracicu mooting has lecn going on
at Hcthol Church, a largo settlement in
thn northern part of. Fayette County,
during tho past week. Wednesday last
a very handsomo female preacher put In
an appearance, nnd, securing a Httlo
church not far from Hcthol, began to
hold, what sho called Mormon exhorta
tions. Tho young men and young wom
en or the neighborhood bocamo much Interested
In tho "femalo preacher's''
meeting, and two young women, daughters
of respectablo farmers, confessed
tho Mormon religion and Joined
thn church. This aroused tho hoi-test
indignation of tho bettor class
of citizens, nnd thev determined
to run tho handsomo female preacher
out. Further Investigation disclosed
tho fact that tho young woman cxhorter
was being secretly supported In her
work by two Mormon ciders, Who kont
dark. A committed hunted down tho two
eldors, and yesterday morning they woro
tarred and feathered and told to go.
Many think tho handsomo young femalo
preacher is nothing moro than somo
young villain disguised in fomalo attlro.
An investigation is to bo mado if sho
preaches again, and If such Is tho caso
tbo femalo preacher will bo lynched.
