Numbering an Editor.
30. K"

The slayer Of Ralph Smith has been
found guilty Of manslaughter.. The
verdict should have been murder in
the first degree, but it is sufficient
that Messrs. Shortridge and Deuprey
and jury OF twelve intelligent men
have established the fact that it is a
crime to shoot down an editor who,
with good, honest intentions, publish
es provable fact in his paper. Pow
ell had his remedy at law, but he pre-
fered to take the matter in his own
hand. He murdered quiet, hard
working, inoffensive and useful men,
Der OF society. 1t is a satisfaction to
know that he is to be punished for
his offense. The extreme penalty
for the offense for which he has been
convicted is ten years, and it is too
mild when the enormity of the offense
is considered. He will be sentenced
on Wednesday. rs. F. Post.
