The New York Express is one OF the
few democratic papers of the North which
squarely condemns the Mississippi outrage
business. Referring to the statement OF
Governor Stone that mo jury in Kemper
county would convict the rioters. the Ex-
press says: 1.-The people of the country
will be sorry to hear this confession OF Ju-
dicial and executive feebleness, and all
the more so, as the statement is probably
true. Governor Stone and his constitu-
ents must be aware of the moral and po-
litical blight which accompanies such
confession. When State cannot arrest
and try a case of murder, it ceases to be
a State. When community is ready to
protect murdererers against the law, il
ceases to be free. The South has just es-
capped Federal bondage, upon a pledge
to show capacity for free, responsible
self.government, but this case in DeKalb
county, Mississippi, does not look like it."

During the time that Gen. Wade
Hampton was endeavoring to gain con-
troll OF the State Government of South
Carolina" says the New York Times, "he
was profuse in promises that the colored
people, under his administration. would
be protected in all their rights. Regard
ing the school question, which the negroes
have always considered a vital one. he
was particularly explicit, and his speeches
both before and after the election, were
filled with assurances that the system of
public education inaugurated by Gov.
Chamberlain would not be radically
changed, and that any alteration which
did occur would be advantageous. not det-
rimental, to the interests OF the colored
people. The black men were only par
TALLY treasured by these pledges they
had the examples oil Georgia and Alaba-
ma before them; they knew that Southern
democrats while seeking for office made
promises only to break them when the
object OF their ambition had been secured
and they did not believe that Hampton
was more Trustworthy than his associates
1t now seems as if their worst fears
were to be realized. The first decisive
blow has been struck by The democrats at
the University OF South Carolina. and,
having the power, there is no assurance
that they will not go further by degrees,
and. in the end. deprive the colored people
of the country districts of all means of
educating their children. Under the la Tvs
OF the State this result would be accomp-
lished the moment the Legislature refused
or neglected to make an appropriation
for the support of the country schools"

The jury In the EIlenton
riot case have disagreed. One half
the number were white. the rest were
colored men. Chief Justice Waite's
charge to the jury clearly defines the po-
sition of the United States. as distinguished
from that of State Government. in re-
gard to this class of offences against the
laws. These men were not on trial for
murder, but for conspiracy to deprive COL
ored citizens of certain rights guaranteed
to them by the Constitution of the United
States. II is not surprising that the jury
disagreed for. had there been any pnblc
sentiment to compel the State Govern
ment to proceed against these persons,
they would already have been tried and
condemned for the major offence. That
the enforcement acts must prove q dead

population reject both, has received fresh
