to be high time TO act in the matter and settle

From Middfetown Transcript.


Two Of the Wilmington evening pa
pers rather overdid themselves in tho
way of sensation in reporting the Odessa
outrage. Readers would have better
opinion of newspapers if they would
get the facts in such cases and stick to
them. There was no attempt made
here to lynch Redden, and probably
not dozen persons in Middletown
knew that he was to be- taksn to New
Castle on the noon train of Saturday.
There was no unusual crowd at the
station, and there was not the least
disposition shown to open court with
Judge Lynch on the bench. Had the
circumstances of his atrocious criue
and the fact that he was to be taken 10.

known here, the state of affairs at the
station might have been more exciting,
But perhaps it is best as it is.
