The expression of indignation at the meeting
in Jersey City on Saturday may have been
natural enough under the tragic circumstances
which aroused the populace, but the resolu-
tons demanding that Mr.. Glendenning quit
the city were an outrage upon law and order,
to say nothing of their injustice to the accused.
The whole proceeding smacks of the back
woods, where there is practically no law to
meet such cases; it is disgrace to all con-
cerned that it should have occurred in law
enforcing New-Jersey. One or two men feebly
protested against the manifest injustice of the
resolutions, but not one in all the crowded
hall seems to have had courage to denOunce
the action in the terms it deserved. If MIR.
Glendenning is guilty, the law has no punish
ment adequate to his Otfense; but thus far the
crime is only charged, not proved. AS illus
trating the gross injustice of the action of
these indignant citizens, it may be noted that
one of the strongest citations of proof against
Mr.. Glendenning which the resolutions con-
tanned, is shown this morning to be no proof
at all.

Five of the eight resolutions in the Ala
bama Republican platform refer to the ques-
ton of the civil and political equality OF the
races. There Is usually so little accord be-
tween party platforms and party per-
formances that people attach little
weight to the former; but the Alabama
Republicans say the same thing over so many
times that even their opponents must credit
their declaration that they do not intend to
raise trace ISSUE and that when they ask
for equal rights they have no thought OF
mixed schools or social equality. The Con-
vention ignores the Currency question, which
is a great deal better than some other Con-
ventOns have done.
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1874-08-24

While the story Of lawessness in Alabama,
published in another column, is evidently
written by an excited partisan, it has the in
ternal evidence of an honest statement. The
facts therein presented ought to be made the
subject of some sort of investigation, and the
people of Alabama owe it to their good name
to explain how such outrages can be perpe-
trated in State nominally enjoying repub-
lican form of government and claiming to
give its citizens the rights of free thought
and free speech. 1t is common in the South
to ascrbe crimes to political motives; and 1t
is not clear that Mr.. Billings was murdered
because of his Republicanism; but it was un-
doubtedly a dastardly assassination, and a
State in which such crimes are allowed to go
unpunished is not desirable place of resi-
dence.

Does anybody in Mr.. Tilton's household
tell the TRUTH We have now the testimony
of the young lady so often alluded to in the
case as "Bessie -" the adopted daughter of
the Tiltons. She fatty contradicts what Mr..
Moulton says about the cause OF her leaving
Brooklyn, and informs the Committee that on
two occasions Mr.. TiltOn attempted by vio-
lence to take improper liberties with her. But
at the request of Mrs. Tilton she consented 10
sign statement that TiltOn had never done
anything of the kind. Is she afflicted with the
same weakness which Mrs. TiltOn confessed IN
her letter to Moulton: Rather than make
"others suffer as l now do | must lie, for 1t
is a physical impossibility for me to tell the
"truth ~

which are arriving from eastern cities, where
many of the manufactures are making only half
