sheer desperation have taken the law in
their own hands. Crime had become so
bold and rampant in that section, and the
courts seemed SO powerless or unwilling TO
protect life and property that men were
compelled, in self defense, to organize a sort
of vigilance committee in the counties OF
Brown, Jackson, Orange, Washington and
Clarke, which during The ast few years has
done some bloody work. Mob law is ter
rifle thing, and the perpetrators of this act
should, ifpossible, be ferreted out and pun
ished. Yet when bad men succeed
by a system Of terrorism or corrup-
ton in preventing the execution OF
the laws and defyiDg justice,
it is hard to say that society shall quietly
submit to their depredations and make no
efforts to defend itself against scoundrels
who snap their fingers at the law. This
very man Heffren committed an atrocious
murder few years since, and Twas acqut-
ted by local jury in the face OF overwhelm-
log eviience OF bis guilt. The jury not
only acquitted him, but at tae close OF the
trial bore him on their shoulders to the
nearest drinking saloon. and drank to the
health Of The escaped murderer. And 1t is
well known that not only juries, butjudges
have proved the fast friends f criminals IN
some Of the counties above named. Such
things are hard TO bear, and come Is rear
furnishing a Justification for mob violence
as anything possibly could. As near, We

Pig mos avn pRorncrroN.

According 20 the st. Louis Republican,
American pig iron, WI ich is sold to con-
suuers in this country At ffty-one dollars
ton, is transported to England and sold
a. forty dollars, doubtless yielding good
profit TO the producer. The virtue, or rath-
er hypocricy, of protection, is well exposed
by tie Republican In the following words:
tWhen the American iron-master ships
iron to England at $40 ton, he proves
that be can make a profit at that price.
Why, then, should the people be taxed 81
q ton for his protection against the very
manufactures he is underselline9 When
American iron-masters sell iron 10 foreign
ers al Sl1 q ton less than they exact of their
own countrymen; and the onUndaga Salt
Company sells its salt in Canada for thirty
five cents a barrel less than it asks in the
home market; ard the Boston sewing ma-
chine mannfacsarers sch, their machines in,
Europe for S25 less than the price they
compel us to pay at home, they all prove
that the whole system of protection of
which they are the benesciaries, is hypo-
critical and fraudulent prssext for robbery,
and that tho sooner the people are relieved
of it, The better. -E

MOB LAW INDIANA.

The mobblng and killing of criminals in
Southern Indiana is getting Z !, be rather too
common. The indianapolis Journal state s
that Deloss Heffren, who was hung
by q mob at SaleE on the 2Sth
lnts, was the twelfth person who
has been lynched in that por-
ton of the State within the last four years
Less than four years ago six members of
the Reno gsrg of express robbers were.
hung By a vigilance committee; about two
years ago three negroes were lyDched in
Clark county for numbering tho Park fam
ily, and in October, 1870, two burglars
named Pickett aud Tougatt, were seized
by a mob in Orange county while on their
way to jail and summary executed. So
Heffren makes the twelfth, and perhaps
there have besn more. But there appears
to be a reason for these outbreaks of mob
violence which seems to mitigate their oc-
urrence in the estimation Of Indianians.
The Indianapolis Journal says:
"The administration of law in certain
portions of Southern Indiana has become
SO loose, not to say corrupt, that men in

This was for travelling as Supervising Ar

at the same time he was going over the

the SUMS correspondent ADDS this little ex-
nlauation: "There is something about
these bills, even conceding that as Super

WE noticed some days since that guam
tity of corn was found hot and badly dam
aged in Chicago. The fact created panic
among corn holders and buyers, and the
market value of four million bushels fell at
once eleven cents bushel in that city. A
large quantity on its way to New York and
other markets shared the same fate; SO
that the known lass WAS one million one
hundred thousand dollars. 1t turned out
that only one bin was shot" at all, and the
loss on that was thirty dollars; pdaic did
the rest.

THE ANTI.fAss MoVEMENr.

| Touching the movement Of certain rail-
roads leading into Chicago to abolish the
pass or dead-bead system, Mr.. j.. Edgar
Thompson, Vice President ofthe Pennsyl-
vaD,a Railroad, who was in Cbiesgo few
days after the meeting was held, is report
ed to have said that whatever might be the
present Intention aud desire of those COM
posing the meeting at which The resolutions
abolishing the pass system was adopted, the
effort would in The end prove abortive! and
that G discretionary granting of passes does
not injure the railway in the least-cn the
other band, Che thought 1t wasa whole
some practice. Ibappears thai this anti
pass movement has already abous come TO
an end. The directors of the Western lines
fir that the mana ers of the Eastern lines
will not come into the arrangements at all,
SO that the reform at best could be only
partial. Besides, the Western directors
recognize that they have more TO lose by
the aboiitionof the dead-head system than
the Eastern men, since they make mere
frequent trips TO the East than do Eastern
men TO the West. But this is not the only
trouble hat has beset the Chicago reform
ers. The Chicago Journal says:
"One of our morning daili,s expresses
The opinion that st. Louis railroads will
join the roads having headquarters at
Chicago in abolishiDg the dead head system.
We wish there were ground for this expac-
tation, but there is mono Whatever. On the
contrary, St. Louis is jubilant over the
harvest it hopes to reap at the expense of
Chic $50. Already free passes are being
literally distributed to the mercha nts who
live at points where the two cities have
competing roads, in the hope Of drawing
custom. ..r -..r- ..--

In his message to the last Legislature Of
Ohio, Gov. Noyes recommended that the
laws OF ,thas STATE should DO define The pun
ishmens Of 3 crime that iiia the imposition
of sentence no discretion should be left
TO the Judge who tried the case. This is
good recommendation and should be acted
upon by The Legislature of every State.

THE Boston Advertiser is informed that
the manufacturers of nails in New England
have unanimously agreed 10 stop their
works during the greater part ofthe months
of July and August. The reason alleged is
that heavy stO,ks ofnails have accumulated,
and the market prize has thereby been
crowded down below the manufacturing
cost. A similar action on the-psrt of the
Pittsburg manufacturers, was reported q
few weeks ego.

a NICE LITTLE GAME ExPosED.

phe New York Sun makes some ugly
zevSations in regard to Supervising Archi-
tect Mullett. It appears from statement
of the Washington correspondent of the
Sun, that Mullett has inst returned from a
tour of inspection OF 3 portion Of the fifty
public buildings now in TIA course or erec-
ton by the Government. Mr.. Mullett
makes frequent tours Of this kind; indeed,
he is always making them, because it is a
business that pays. Mr.. MaIlett is not only
Supervising Architect of-the Treasury De-
psrtment, but be is, by the appointing LIT OF
the Postmaster General, special agent OF
the Postofice Department, and as such is
provided with a free ticket over all the r.A-
roads in the United States. The Suns cor
respondent states that previous to the pres
ent Administration, the rule OF the Treas
ury Department wss to allow officers and
clerks whenever they went off on public
business, actual necessary expenses only,
and the person putting in such claim was
required to swear to the correctness of every
item charged, but the Department has a
bad rule now of allowing sCch persons ten
cents per mile. Under this new rule, Null
let has presented the following mileage bill:
