RAPE, ROBBERIES AND NJ MURDERS
A few days ago Mrs. RAIDER was killed
by robbers in Montgomery county, near
this city. A little later NJ rs. o ARA, near
Manayunk, was brutally outraged by a
number of brutes in human form. On
M onday night man was murdered in a
row in the Sixth Ward of this city. On
Tuesday afternoon, while Paying ster
Blssell and his assistant, Captain Carling,
of the Delaware, Lackawanna and West
ern railroad, were going in q buggy with
81. 900 to pay the miners in the Brisbin
colliery, in the outskirts of Scranton, they
were attacked by two masked robbers q
short distance from the mine. The rob-
bers drew revOlvers and fired, slightly
wounding Captain Carling. Mr.. Bisseil
returned the fire, and the robbers fed to
the woods. On Friday morning of last
week four masked burglars armed, of
course, with revolvers, broke into the
house of MIR. Lew w. Pennock, near
West Grove, in Chester county and tied
him, his wife and a man named Carver
hand and foot, and then ransacked and
robbed the house of large amount of
money. On Tuesday night terrible
tragedy was enactedsnear Fairview, in
York county, in which two men were
killed. On Tuesday, in the afternoon,
masked men robbed the dwelling of
George Thompson, in Bea, er valley, and
killed his hired man, named Thomas
Barns. These are but the cases of rob.
berry and murder in this state that come
under our mental view at this moment.
Tomorrow may show as many more
Some of the above crimes were perpe-
trated in broad daylight, in utter con-
tempt. and defiance of the law and Its
Robbers and murders in this
state seem to have concluded that they
have nothing to fear from the law. No
doubt they reason that if they should be
arrested, tried and convicted they would
be set free by the board of pardons; and
with this hope in their minds they con-
clude to rob and kill at pleasure. In
some of the counties vigilance commit
mittees have been formed, and lynching
will become necessary if the proper au-
thorlties remain so lax and inefficient
for the punishment and prevention of
crime. The people will be compelled to
take the law into their own hands. 1t
has become question of life and death,
and self.preservation is the first law of
nature. If the courts and the board of
pardons will not protect the people, the
people must protect themselves. And
a few summary hangings by the outrag-
popalace in different parts of Pennsylva-
mia, lawless though the proceeding
would be, would have wholesome ef-
feet, A short shrift and long rope
would be only just such criminals as
those who committed the robberies,
rape and murders above mentioned, and
we could not blame the people if these
scoundrels should be strung up accord
ing TO the code of Judge Lynch.

COL. MCCLURE rs. COL. FORNEY.
The Philadelphia Times says 1t was in
bad taste for Colonel Forney to declare that
the plain uttcrance of Governor TIlden will
increase the satisfaction of the American
people that he "was neither elected ncr de-
cared President OF the Uni.ed Stat " To
say at this late day, with the multiplied
proofs and bitter confessions which have
come from the chief actors in fraud
themselves, that Governor Tilden was not
honestly elected President is to insult the
Intelligence OF all parties and President
Hayes himself makes no such claim. H.
was lawfully declared President by a lawful
tribunal, and his acceptance of his commits
sion from the arbitrament created by the
nation to battle with fraud, may be treated
as public duty under the circumstances !;
but the fact Is none the less grounded in
the convictions of the country and the
world. that the result was revoIutiouized
by fraud, and that there eau be no repetition
of it that would not be death blow 10 free
government.
