THE Atlanta Constitution speak out
plainly in condemnation of the Yazoo
county murderers: ..-...
Mob rule is anarchy and anarchy
breeds assassination aud all the long
train OF horrors that religion, and
society, and civilization have been
hghtiDg against since the world be-
gun. We have been claiming that
the States are able to enforce their
own laws and to maintain peace with.
in their own borders. Were we mis-.
taken? Has ruffianism in Missis
sippi reached that point where the
Governor of the State is powefiess to
cnnIrul it? It must be controlled,
and that speedily. Are the
State authorities powerful or are
they powerIess ? We know very
very well that public sentiment in
that State regards these ebuiitions OF
ruftianism with unspeaksble horror.
but public sentiment Is worthless un-
less it makes itself felt in the direction
OF peace and good order If the Gov
ernOr of Mississippi feels that he ia
unable to cope with the political
bAshi bazouks that infest the State.
then it is his duty either to convene
the Legislature or to call upon the
government for troops to suppress the
outbreaks; for it can not be denied
that the wisest. most Just and easiest
solution of ruffianism that has out
grown the powers Of State Is the
bayOnet." @@s~
