WHY HE WAS NOT LYNCHED.

!
Frankfort Special to Louisville Courier
! Journal
| When Tom Buford fired the shot that
| took the life of member of the supreme
court of the commonwealth of Kentucky
| and fired the shot because of an official act
| of that judicial officer, all Frankfort, to use
the words of distinguished citizen, was
"paralyzed" by the enormity of the deed and
the manner of its accomplishment. To that
mental shock of the public mind and the
prompt act of an officer in hurrying the as
sassin to Jail, Tom Buford probably owes
the continuance of miserable existence.
Had one voice broken the spell by calling
for vengeance, spontaneous outburst of
passion would have led to the tearing asunder
of the cold-blooded murderer, and to the
scattering of his carcass as food for dogs.
Happily for the already outraged law, when
the reaction came the criminal was bevond
the reach of an unorganized fury, and cooler
heads were taking precautions to thwart any
plans OF concerted assault. Quick, as
though fire-bells had called them, an excited
throng of angry people poured into and filed
up st. Clair street. in the neighborhood of
the jail, and while there were but few open
threats made, it required but a casual OBJ
server to read in eyes too hot for tears the
one wish of the people. County Judge
Thompson ordered Sheriff Williams ian old
school-mate and lifelong friend of the MUIR
dered MANI to summon posse for the pro-
lection of the murderer, and when darkness,
under whose cover mobs, like over beasts of
prey, usually do their devilish work, crept
over the scene and passion became rampant.
Gov. McCreary mingled with the mass, and
with earnest appeals and sober reasoning
sought to dissuade them from their purpose
of indicating the law by lawless means.
There were no noisy demonstrations, the
Governor being accorded respectful atten-
ton and courteous treatment. The coolest
heads considered the precautions taken suf-
hclent to prevent any attempt at violence,
but the Governor, in the abundance of his
caution, had instructed the peace officers to
call for the militia if there was any donbt
about the matter, and soon after dark the
call was made, and thirty-five members of
the McCreary guards, under the command OF
Capt. Ed. Taylor, were stationed around the
jail. This action on the part of the author
tiles ELECTED some unfavorable comment, but
severe storm of wind and rain came M
about 9 O'Clock, and the crowd scattered to
collect no more. At no time could the as
semblage properly be termed mob, but the
friction of so many excited minds, if allowed
to continue uninterrupted, would have
worked up frenzy disastrous in the end.
Under the aggravating circumstances attend
ing this most unprovoked and, considering
its deleterious effects upon the interests Of
the people of the whole State, most disas-
trous crime in the annals of the American
people, the citizens of Frankfort deserve
much credit for the forbearance and self
control which saved them and this State a.,
other stain.

expanded to embrace claim for purifying
mlddlings, when no such process was de-
scnbed, suggested or claimed in the origina

), Judge Nelson expressed the same idea in
these words: "The actual invention of
Oochrane has been enlarged by the addition
OF new matter in the reissue, 80 that when
the two patents are compared the extension
Is apparent. The new patent is not for the
same invention secured and embraced in the
original letters PATENT
Judge Treat at length discussed the two
methods and said of the case already deoid-
cd against WEIGH by the supreme court: eff
an appeal is taken, that court will have be-
fore it in this suit the large amount of new
evidence introduced; in the light of which
II can determine for itself whether it will
review its former opinion or not.''

"Who we're the persons interested in this
performance
"Mr. William Warder and Mr.. Rodney
Mason, in 1873 and 1874, entered into an
understanding to obtain the greater part of
the interest in the old Cochrane patent. and
then reissue it so as to cover the new pro-
cess. Middlings had never been ground in
to superfne flour here. Cochrane readilv
agreed to give one-half his interest to Mason
which was one-fourth of the entire patent
for obtaining the reissue and prosecuting
suits under the reissue. The thing was then
so worthless that William Warder had got
fourth of it for nothing. These three men
-Cochrane, Mason and Warder-slipped off
to Washington City, and associated with
them three lawyers Phillips and
Walter Cox-and two men of means-John
y. Evans and J. Van Buskirk. These latter
persons furnished $1,000 to carry on the
litigation. The patentees at once brought
suit against miller at Georgetown, D. c.,
under their new patent. This miller, Welch,
had been the first to tell them that purified
mlddlings could be manufactured, and he is
suspected of being in with them. Their
suit was pressed, and before it was decided
the Interested parties resolved to carry it
right up to the supreme court on printed
briefs They got a verdict in their favor"
"How did they get that VERDICT"
"By an er parte affidavit of the first in
Ventor, Cogswell, he testifying that Cochrane
was the real inventor of the air-blast and
ventliator. The supreme court, thus misled,
decided that the old Cogswell and McKiernan

hazard of being arrested on summary pro-
cess, or no process at all. 1t will paralyze
the Republican party because that party de-
ponds upon the coercion of voters rather
than upon their free will.
After careful consideration of the facts
in the case we are inclined to the belief that
ssmonstrous paralysis such as Mr.. Garfield
refers to would be eminently bene-
fetal. It would give every
man an opportunity to record
his vote on whatever question might arise in
an emphatic manner, without fear that by
doing SO he might incur the displeasure of
some satrap who was doing the bidding of
his master. 1t would be benefit to the
cause of republicanism if such paralysis
should overtake the country, and continue
until real republicanism was established per-
manently throughout the length and breadth
of the country.
We sincerely trust that the "monstrous
paralysis that Mr.. Garfield fears may come
about. It will do the country good.

weaknesses Of Mr.. Hayes and to profit by
them. He has shown upon how weak q
foundation the objections of Mr.. Hayes to
the bills passed by Congress rests He has
shown that the purpose of the Democratic
party in passing those bills was thoroughly
patriotic, and that it was in complete accord
with the constitution.
Mr.. Knott has not made "a strong case
against the Republican party as the facts
would warrant, yet he has exposed some of
the weaknesses of the party in such man
ner as to carry conviction with it. He has
exposed the partisanship of the vetoes in
the most emphatio manner. He has shown
the falsity of the pretense that the Republi-
can party is q party Of exceptional vir-
tue and that such pretense is q
hollow mockery. He has shown that the
employment of troops at the polls is re-
cent innovation, and had never been sane
toned in the sense that Mr.. Hayes sane
toned it, at any stage of the existence of the
nation.
Mr.. Knott's pronunciamento will have q
beneficial effect upon the public at large. It
will enlighten those who are yet in the dark
as to the issues involved in the recent con-
test. II is clear, manly exposition of prin-
oiples, and as such will command the atten-
ton of the whole public.

MR.. KNOTT,s REPORT.

Mr.. Proctor Knott, chairman of the judi
ciary committee of the House, has given to
the public brief review of the veto mes
sages of Mr.. Hayes, thus far presented. Mr..
Knott handles the person cat the other end
of the avenue without gloves, and succeeds
in making very good case against Mr..
Hayes. In the first place he analyses his
two vetoes of the repeating clauses of the
army bill, pointing out the Inconsistencies of
his first and second vetoes in manner little
short of positiveness. He convicts the ex-
eoutive of having promised to approve one
thing, in his first message, and of having
disspproved of the same thing in his Sec
ond. His historic references differ some
what from those Of Mr.. Hayes in that they
are truer to history, and teach an entirely
different lesson.

The emperor of Germany celebrated his
golden wedding on Wednesday. The chron-
icler of the event, after describing the fes-
tivities of the occasion, says the emperor
walked with feeble step, as if he was not
long for this world. Such an evidence of
disloyalty will no doubt consign the CORES
pondent of the Associated Press to year in
the German bastile. He ought to have de-
scribed the emperor as hale and hearty, hav-
ing sawed cord of wood before breakfast,
cantered dozen miles on spirited steed
and read chapter in the bible without the
aid of glasses. Then he might have hoped
for promotion; now he can only look for

A NEEDED PARALYSIS.

Mr.. Garfield, in the debate in Congress
on the 18th, referred to the "monstrous
paralysis that would be visited upon the ex-
eoutive department If there should be days
on which laws could not be enforced. Mr..
Garfield was particularly felicitous in allud-
ing to tue aforesaid paralysis that would
attack the Republican party in case it was
debarred from the use of the army at the.
polls. We have no doubt whatever but
paralysis that would affect every fibre of the
party would be manifest in its conduct if
such calamity should overtake it.
The truth is that the Republican party de-
ponds for its success upon the fact that the
executive of that party is able to ward off
the "paralysis'' that threatens. He has on
two occasions interposed his veto against the
repeal of laws that of themselves would
have removed all danger of the interference
of the military with the civil power in the
matter of elections. If such acts had re-
ceived executive sanction the "paralysis"
would have taken place without any unneces-
sary delay. As it was, the crisis has been
delayed to more convenient season.
No person of sense will deride the mill
tary arm of the government or attribute un-
worthy motives to any person who happens
to be attached to it. They act under orders
from their superior officers, and are not
responsible for the mischief they do.
Nevertheless it is fact that they are capa-
BILE of doing infinite mischief-of completely
overturning the will of the people at the
polls. A few bayonets at the polls will pre-
vent the registration of several scores of
votes, even though the persons who hold
the bayonets in their hands may be auiescent
and avoid, as far as possible, any obtrusiye-
ness. The fact that they are present, exer-
cising powers unknown to the constitution
is sufficient to intimidate those voters who
are not absolutely assured Of their RIGHT tn
exercise the elective franchise. The result
invariably is that the party that controls the
troops gains voters, while the party in the
minority loses.
The 1'monstrous paralysis that will at
tack the Republican party when the troops
are removed from the polls is simply lepiti-
mate result, flowing from legitimate causes.
It will paralyze the Republican party because
it will remove from it the main stay mon
which it depends for existence in many dis
trlcts It will give to the citizen the right to

The Democrats in Congress have shown
one thing, at least, that ought to be scored
up to their credit. No matter how violent
the opposition to them has been, they have
always been courteous, gentlemanly and
considerate. Even in the heat of debate no
insult has been uttered towards an oppo-
nent, and no apology for words spoken in
debate has been required of any of them.
No matter how great the provocation, the

have restrained their passions, and stand

line, and feel in sense proud of myself
when you tell US she is absolutely free from
tramps,' and that for this blessing she is in
debted to the wisdom of her legislators.
There are great many people who believe
that Senator Doran and Representative
Smith, who were mainly instrumental in de-
feating the tramp law in our State, are so
intelligent that they only resorted to ridicule
when the advocates of such laws
proved to be impervious to argument.
The discussion of this question will
certainly BIO prominent in our next Iegisla-
ture, and to the end that it may be popular
ly understood and intelligently discussed by
our electors, hope you will not think
am asking too much in asking that some one
of the enacted laws, that, for instance,
which is assumed to be the most eficacious,
and the most deserving of our imitation,
shall be published in full in your oolumns.
When we can get the legal definition Of q
tramp down to black and white, there will
be fair chance for the human mind to ex-
ercise its own ingenuity in the solution Of
the curious but irrelevant problem as ia
whether there are any tramps left in Connec-
ticut, and of the practical and relevant ques-
ton as to how few honest men in search Of
work shall be COMPOUNDED in Minnesota with
the scum of our much Wanted civilization
I hope your malicious wish that Dorau
