effect that the actions Of the late Vigilance
Committee was revolutionary and lauless,
and recommending that It's members be pro-
secuted. The Crescent gives brief view
of the points Of this charge, a. follows:
g Tie Judges statement ofthe case was in
substance, that every man who acted ID o.
with the so.called Vigilance Committee, by
that acting perpetrated high treason and
proclaimed himself an outlaw. That the act
Of Mayor Waterman in attempting to legal
ize the said committee BY swearing in tie
members thereof as special policemen was il
violation Of all law. That II the Mayor, Or
acting Mayor. had ordered posse q men.
under his authority, 70 arrest, the figilants.
or dislodge them from the property which
they had seized, and in the enforcement 81
that authority any of the yigilants had been
killed. tile killing would have been jastifable
homicide !; but that il any o. the yigilants, OF
even one man Of them, had killed any man
acting under the Mayors orders, the whole
Of the so.called Vigilance organization would
have been jointly guilty Of murder"
