The Lynching at Macon.

A mob at Macon at l o'clock yesterday
morning took the law into its own
hands and lynched ex-Policeman Moore,
who was in jail on the charge OF having
outraged deienseless girl, a stranger in
the city. The outrage which the mob
committed was greater than that which
the eX-polceman comm ed, assuming
that he was guilty Of the crime with
which be was charged. But was he guilty ?
About the last words that he uttered
were that he was not guilty. just before
he was dragged from the Jail he declared
to another prisoner that he was not guilty,
and that he was only guilty
ofriding around the city with woman
OF a questionable reputation. There is
ground for believing that his statement
is true. Inquiry had been made with
respect to his alleged victims character,
! the result of which was sufficient to JUS
tify very careful investigation.
There was no occasion for resOrting to
lynch law. The alleged criminal was in
Jail, and there was no reason TO think
that he would not be punished if guilty.
Why. then, was not the law allowed TO
take its cOursei
We do not pretend TO say that be was
not guilty, but there is room for doubt.
There is possibility that the mob lynched
a man who was guilty OF little more tina n
an irdiscretion. Of course it makes little
! difference whether the suspicious respect.
| ing the character OF the alleged victim
are well founded or not, so far as the
| Nervousness OF the crime is concerned,
! provided the crime was committed, but il
the suspicious are we'll founded doubt
OF the truth OF the victims story is raised.
! But there is no excuse tor lynch law in
Macon. The law is enforced there, and
the guilty are punished. If the lynched
man were guilty Of a greater crime even
/ than that with which he was charged
that would not have justified the act OF
the mob.
In very many instances the victims OF
lynch law are innocent. When the Haer.
/ tells were murdered in this city several
years ago, Il it had not been for the vigi.
lance, pluck and determination OF the su.
thorites, parties arrested on sus.
piclou Of being the murderers would
have been lynched. There was great
excitement, and movement made for the
/ jail. The least sign OF weakening on the
part Of the officials would have been
fatal doubtless to the prisoners. There
! WAS 30 evidence TO show that the sus-
pected men were guilty. Lynch law may
be necessary on the border sometimes,
where society is hardly organized, but it
is not In a civilized and well regulated
community like Macon.

Mr.. Tildcn,s Wealth.

The story that was started soon after
Mr.. Tilden's will was read that some OF
the heirs were dissatis fed and intended TO
contest it, rested, ii seems, on
very slender foundation. If at
any time there was an intention
TO begin contest it was very
soou abandoned. There was not one
chance in hundred that II would have
been successful. 1t could not have been
shown thst Mr.. Tlden was not capable
of making will at the time that his will
is dated, or at any other time within an
hour or SO before his death, and it could
not have been shown that he had not
dealt with the heirs fairly, and even
literally. What folly II would have been,
therefore, to have begun contest that
could have done no one except the law
yers any good.
The report, it seems, grew out of re-
mark OF one of the sons of Henry Tilden,
who thought that money that had been
advanced to him and his brother to pay a
certain debt Of their father should not
have been deducted from their shares.
/ His disappointment, however, wasn't
keen enough to induce him TO try to break
the will.
Mr.. Tilden's idea was that young men
should make their own fortunes. He did
not believe in providing so literally tor
them that they would be in a position to
live a life of idleness. He gave to each
of the younger heirs an income Ofbetween
S., 600 and $4,000 a year, and this, added
| TO what they can earn themselves. he
thought fully sufficient TO meet all their
wants. BY making them all very. rich he
might have done them harm rather than
good.
No doubt there was some little disap-
pointment, when the Will was read. among
those Of the heirs who expected to be
millionaires, and, doubtless, the disap-
pointed ones could not understand why
the bulk of the estate should be used for
the public good rather than to the enrich
ment OF relatives. Mr.. Tilden, however.
obtained his great fortune by his own eX-
ertions, and he had perfect right to do
with it as he pleased.
1t will be admitted by all disinterested
persons that the will Is a wise one. 1t
will give to New York city magnificent
circulating library. and thousands OF this
and coming generations will have occa-
sion TO recall Mr., Tilden's name with
pleasure. The heirs, if they had got the
entire estate, might have squandered it
or lost it in business ventures. They are
now assured of a comfortable income
during their lives, and the city of New
York will have an institution which will
be of incalcuable benefit to her people.
There are already three public IL
braries in the city of New York
the Astor, the Lenox and the His
torical-but no one Of them is just
what is needed by the masses of the
people. The library which the TIlden
trustees will establish will supply long
felt want, and be a monument to a man
who will rank in history with the greatest
OF Americans.
