The mob at Carr clifton Miss. that
wantonly killed a dozen or more
colOred men was an outrage for
which there can be no matter of
justification, being Il disgrace to civ

State Of Mississippi. Even if the
two Browns were bad men. they
could have been dealt with in a
different manner.
1t is very likely that they had
been insulting and abusive to the
whites and had goaded them to des
peration. But even then, that
would afford no excuse for the indis
criminate slaughter OF the other col
ored mri. Unnecessary, the Browns
could have been disposed of wit b
ont taking tn" lives OF innocent men.
The law could surely have handled
II pair of half Indian drSperadOes

Zens, There is no feature in that
terrible slaughter that can be ad
duced to justify tie bloody deed,
and the State of Mississippi owes
it to the world to bring the guilty
leaders to punishment.
