The Memphis appeal. [volume] (Memphis, Tenn.) 1886-1890, 1886-05-13

WASHINGTON, May l0.-The regula-
ton imposing upon the watchmen at
the various entries 10 the Treasury
the duty of noting the time at which
the clerks arrive in the morning Is
said not to have proved as effective in
putting a stop to the late corners as
was expected. So, in addition TO this,
one of the argest bureaus in the de-
partment the Internal Revenue
will from this time set the example OF
an especial espionage. This morn.
ing each chief of division was di-
rected to detail clerk for his room
to keep time of the arrival OF each
one employed in tue division. 1t is
supposed the same system will be put
in vogue in the other bureaus. The
clerks, who have been much chagrined
at the surveillance of the watchmen
at the outer doors, are no rified at
tn s additional supervision, and have
not been backward in expressing their
Indignation. 1t is not learned, how
ever, that any of them will resign in
Jnsequence.

the shape OF monopoly, usury or in

added also, "or the minority" for the
father OF the republic used these
words: "All distractions to the exc
cution of the laws, all combinations
and associa ions under whatever
plausible character, with the real de-
sign to direct, control, counteract or
awe the regular deliberation and ac-
ton OF the constituted authorities, ara
of fatal tendency."-t Washington's
Farewell Address Does not the re.
sort to the boycott at any time tend
and have the real design to counteract
or awe the regular action of the con-
ituted authorities? Mr.. Jefferson,
in his first inaugural, uses these words:
"All, too, will bear in mind this sacred
principle that though the will OF the
majority is in all cases to prevail, that
will to be rightful must be reasonable,
that the minority possess their equal
rights which equal laws must protect,
and to violate which would be oppres-
sion." CITIZEN.

ST LOUIS, Mo-, May u. Story
comes from Prescott, of the Iynching
there Yesterday afternoon of Frank
Lyles, who mur6e ed Minnie Grim ea,
aged sevente en-, because she rejected
his offer OF marrisge. Lyles was
walking home from school with Miss
Grmas and when near the la,ter's
home ne pressed the repeated ques-
ton upon the young lsdy. who refused
20 answe in the affirmative. The
young man became enraged, drew a
revolver and shot the gill in the side.
She started to run for the house, but
the second shot brought her to the
ground. She recovered herself and
again started to run, but again fell.
Lyles in the meantime having
kept up a continuous fusilade and
emptied his revolver into her body.
He then deliberately loaded his re-
volver and fred seven more shots into
the form of the already dead girl, after
which ne cut her throa'. Then he
beat her brains ous with club. He
was captured at once, making no re-
sistauce, but was shortly sfterwart
taken from the officers by a mob and
hanged.

The Judge of the supreme Court.

10 the Editors OF the Appeal:
1t surprises aud pains us to read the
animadversions of our home press on
the judicial course of our criminal
Judge, especially in the Emma Nor
man case. Toe head and front of his
offending seems to be that after giving
the cold and clear cut law he quoted
verse OF appropriate poetry, embody-
ing the noblest sentiment of human
nature; and that he administers the
law without the tyranny that charac.
ter zed some of his predecessors. And
yet, conUerto, he is censured for APP
pc 'nting an extra gusrd for the
ened and bounded by a band
of assassins. There is certainly some
ground of charging this as extraju
dicial. But how does this comport
with the other charge OF undue levity
