An ~INNoCEST MAN HUNG By A Mon.
The Dubuque Times tells of an inocenl
man being hung by a vigilance com,
mittee on Monday last at GAINESVILLE
Bremen county. 1t says: ''In the Times
of yesterday there was an account
of the hanging of a supposed horse thief
by a mob, or self. styled vigilance COM
mittee, between GAINESVILLE and Waverly.
Fuller particulars have since t~ranspired
in regard to the affair, which places il
in an entirely different light, and reveals
the horrible fact that an innocent man
has suffered death al the hands Of the
mob. Il seems that two young men,
partially intoxicated. took the horses and
rode them down to Cedar Falls, and after
they got there turned them loose. Nc.
Roberts was arrested at GAINESVILLE, as
the supposed thief, and hung in a man
ner already related. When the farmer
got home found his animals there. Il is
also stated that McRoberts was hung by
the mob at ten o'clock in the evening,
and left hanging blythe mob until twelve
o clock the next day. Warrants are
BOW out for the arrest Of the rInglead-
ers, and it is to be hoped that the parties
concerned in the outrage will be brought
10 Justice. We understand that n Of
The thief leaders of the mob is the de-
putty sheriff Of the county. Il is certain
" a sickening affair, an no doubt remains
that an innocent man has been hung"

view of giving peace, quiet aud protec-
lion everywhere. Ia times like The pres
ent, it is impossible, or at least eminently
improper TO lay down a policy TO be ad-
hered TO right or wrong. through an ad-
ministration. New political issues, mol
fOreseen, are constantly arising. The
views of the public on the old ones are
constantly changing and a purely admin

to execute the will of the people. / al
