and took him out and punished him fatally.
But lie escaped before death overlook him,
and. reaching neighborhood of acquaint-
ances. revealed the names of more than
thirty of his illegal executioners. The whole
lot has been indicted. and we have reason to
hope will be punished. This is a long step
forward in the establishment of law against
the fantastic justice that Is too apt to rule
the action Of those who supplant the law by
their own inclinarions. 1t matters not
a whit that the victim OF the
lynching was guilty and de-
served all he got. Every reasonable
probability led ts the conclusion that the
courts would do according 10 law all that
any mob would do in defiance of law. In
that state of things mob to execute extra
legal or illegal justice is simply an abomina-
ton to the moral sense of every intelligent
and right-feeling man. But just such cases
have occurred in many States under the
same general conditions, and have escaped
with as complete immunity sif their action
had been that OF an honest. law-abiding
body. We can not now recall a single in
stance OF the legal punishment OF mobs that
have inflicted illegal punishment on offend
ers. Indiana has had score of lynchlng
mobs in the last five wears, but il man of
all the hundreds concerned has ever been
called to account 10y law for il We can't re-
member it. We can't recall case even of
an indictment OF mob murder. But South
Carolina, whatever may be said of some fea-
lures of her social or political condition.
puts the heavy hand OF law on illegal COM
binations to punish crime without law. 1t
is we'll done, and she deserves all honor for
leading the way in one of the most impor-
tant reforms of the social condition of this
country.

The Wheat CroD.

A cargo of wheat, raised in India. was
sold in London, September -, for eighty-nine
cents bushel. This was three cents bush
el higher than the price in Chicago, and
eight cents lover than the quotations in
New York city. Samples OF the India
wheat were sent from London to Chicago.
The India wheat was not considered equal
in quality to the western-grown wheat of
the United States. But il was wheat, and
flour and bread could be produced from it,
and very fair bread, too. Nearly 900. 900, 900
bushels of wheat were raised in India the
present year, and the importatians into
England and other countries from that
source have greatly increased. But the ex-
portations from the United States TO Europe
for three months up to the first of October
were 100000 bushels, against 5000, 0Ot
bushels during the same quarter of 1854.

THE BANCROFT TREATY

The dispatches from Germany indicate
that Minister Pendleton is having serious
difficulty in effecting a satisfactory under
standing with Bismarck concerning the
rights of American citizens residing in Ger
many. The trouble lies in the unfriendly
construction placed by the Premier upon the
Bancroft treaty. Formerly all able-bodied
men residing in the country were required,
without regard to their nationality or
citizenship, to render to the Govern
ment at least seven years of military
service. To reside in Germany, under the
protection of the German Government. were
deemed, without reference to nativity or
nationality benefits equivalent to the SER
vice. BY the Bancroft treaty this hardship
"a to Our people, was abolished, and it was
stipulated that American citizens residing
in Germany, who have not abjured their al
legiance to the Government of the United
States. shall be exempt from military duty.
The number of our citizens residents
IN that country is very large This ex-
enption is universally regarded as a rare
and valuable privilege. It's enjoyment by
50 large a class seems to have invoked
against It's possessors considerable native
prejudice. and to have excited in Bismarck
a spirit of undisguised hostility. In conse-
quence, he has rssorted to every expedient
possessing the least FEASIBILITY to nullify
the exemptions. AS one means to this
end the residence of German-Americans
in the Empire has been subjected, in some

of the Charleston News:
PROFESSIONALLY the colored people have
made much progress intellectually, morally
and in the acquisition OF the goods of this
world within the past twenty years, and
not continue, and with relatively more rapid
strides. The Government under which they

in the working out of the destinies of the

CHILDREN up in Wisconsin are getting in
the habit of throwing dynamite cartridges
into the kitchen stove. This follows natur-
ally. OF Late years the habit OF exploding
coal oil can in making the kitchen fire has
been growing in disuetude. and something
else must be devised to rouse up the house
hold in time for breakfast. We hope, now
that a useful field for the energies OF a dyna-
mite cartridge has been found, that news
papers and other dangerous social elements
will keep-it out of politics -.-------

THE idea that newspaper has a higher
mission than making great politician out
of little demagogue, and that the press
owes some allegiance to the commercial in
terests which support it, is gaining its way.
An esteemed exchange that has been faith
full organ with its crank, always at the
call of the self-seeking party place
hunters, finds it time to revolt against
further use as party tune grinder and de-
cides that it will be s,e,rspoper in the fol-
lowing declaration of independence:
Formerly it was supposed that a newspa-
per had no reason to exist except for political
uses. Service to party and party managers
was regarded as its natural function. 1t was
to be an organ" first, and a newspaper, only
in limited and incidental way, afterwards.
This idea OF journalism is not yet wholly OBJ
solete. Politicians and party leaders would
like TO maintain the servitude of the press
in the old way, and they will succeed to
some extent in doing So but only with Jour-
nails of an inferior class. Strength in jour-
nalsm comes from independence. With
independence and strength comes ability TO
serve the public.
All of which has the right ring. That
kind of independence will react hopefully
upon politics. and will shorten the dema-
gogue's grass until he will be hedged be-
tween work and starvation.
When that time comes the Sentinel favors
joining all hands round in persuading him
TO starye.

THE POWER OF LAW.

OF which we know anything but South Car
DINA merits the commentator of being the
first State in which lynch law has been prev
alent at times to apply the law fairly to the
power and peril of extra legal justice. Where
the law is powerless or practically non-exist-
ent, as happens in some of our frontier re-
gions, there is an excuse for an outside adj
ministration of justice that can be found in
no community of legal organization and
orderly administration. There is none where
there are courts, and sheriffs, and juries, and
jails, and all the appurtenances of legal JUS
tice. Yet criminals have been killed by one
process or another, ranging all the way from
hanging and shooting to whipping
and kicking to death by mobs,
sometimes disguised, sometimes not,
where there was no lack of legal means of
punishment and no reason to believe the
law would not fully vindicate the outraged
