THE RIOT.

The riot at Cincinnati was strange
and very foolish thing. A murderer
had been tried and acquitted contrary
to the proof and the testimony, and
large Indignation meeting was held
in which respectable citizens joined.
The speeches were a little of the in
cendiary order, but not OF such a
character as 10 necessarily provoke
disturbance. After the crowd got
out of doors there was cry for a
rally at the Jail where the prisoner
was confined, and large number
rushed for the jail; here the mob, for
it really had become mob, procured
timbers and tools with which to beat
down the doors and open the cells.
The police interfered as was then
duty, and there were arrests and
fighting which resulted in bloodshed.
Excitement ran high and vast num-
bers assembled in the streets unit
the authorities had no control, and i
became necessary to call for the mil
tia. The troops, after time, free
blanks and later bullets, killing anc
wounding many. The mob, now made
up of the worst classes, had be
come intent on murder and pillage
and it required the most severe meas
ures to restore order and quiet. Th

The whisky bill being defeated by
a most satisfactory vote, it will now
be of interest to see to what extent
the prophecies of the distillers
will be realized. Prices, they said,
were to fall ; a deluge of cheap whis-
ky was to be poured over the country !;
banks and distilleries were to sus-
pend payments, and financial cri-
SIS to result. We have recorded a
belief that none Of these things will
come to pass. If they do not, it will
be we'll to remember the emptiness of
the threats of the whisky men when
they ask the same favors next year.
Orleans County monitor. [volume] (Barton, Vt.) 1872-1953, 1884-04-07

wonder is that in all the trouble for
three days SO few were killed and
wounded. 1t is unfortunate that in
many instances the jury system
proves so corrupt and inadequate to
meet the demands of justice. In this
case the murder was of such a ma
ture and the proof so convincing that
no honest jury could acquit, and an
indignant public could scarcely be
restrained from resorting to the Inch
law. But when the passions of men
were let loose they knew no bounds.
This circumstance shows that there
is an element, in all great cities at
least, that is as combustible as finder
and as dangerous as powder.
