THE POLITICAL BOYCOTT.

Mr.. William r. Moore, of Tennessee,
wrote to the New York Tribune letter
giving his reasons why he favored the
passage of the Lodge election bill. In do
ing this he exercised his inalienable right,
and was entitled to be treated with respect
for the courage to express his convictions
But because he spoke freely his opinion,
the Southern press proposes to boycott him
in his business. The Friars Point (Miss.)
Coahomian says:
Every selfrespecting merchant in Mississippi
should boycott William Z, Moore, of Memphis
His representatives should be shown the door
and copy of last Sundays Memphis Appeal
when they attempt to solicit orders. For bigotry
and eflrontery this individual is entitled to the
palm. 1t is enough for the South to know that
he has written to the New York Tribune Witty
ing the Southern people and insisting upon the
passage of the Federal election bill. Boycott
him.
Such appeals are discredit to Journal
ism and shame TO free institutions. They
indicate a determination to control free
speech by cowing the citizen; they testify
to the lowest possible conception of the
purpose and guarantees of free govern
ment, and prove conclusively that precisely
such measure as the Lodge bill is needed.
The public influences that exert them
selves TO crush man in business because
he entertains certain political belief, will
not hesitate to threaten and punish the
voter, and to employ intimidation and
force to prevent casting a free ballot. In
deed, the men who can lower themselves to
the method of the boycott Will not hesi-
tate to repress votes and manage the ballot
box by foul means to conserve their ends.
If the Southern press and people are rep
resented by such expressions as we have
quoted, there is confession that the Repub-
lican voter in the South is not permitted
to cast his ballot as his conscience dictates
That being the case, the application of
such remedies as the Lodge bill proposes is
necessity. 1t is improbable that the
measure will be passed at this session of
Congress, but such assaults as are made
upon Moore will have tendency to insure
its passage at later day.

electrical engineer who made the expert
ments on animals for the commission ap-
pointed by the New York Legislature
while the electrical execution bill was
pending. He says:
Kemmler was dead within a second after the
alternating current was turned on. Ny ex-
perience with animals and the reports of the
death show that one seconds contact with the
alternating current will prove instantly fatal;
but that if this current is Withdrawn before the
expiration of twenty-five or thirty seconds the
muscular rigidity caused by the passage of the
current through the muscles, Will be followed
by corresponding relaxation, which may pro-
duce spasmodic expulsion OF breath and at
tempts at respiration. If the current is kept on
more than thirty seconds, there is no move
ment whatever of the muscles when the current
is cut OFF. Kemmler was killed instantly and
painlessly within the first second, but as
the current was opened taken Off before thirty
seconds had passed, there were reflex motions
of the muscles which frightened some OF the
attendants into thinking that he was not dead
The current was applied the second time, and
at once. as the report reached me, an appear
ance was produced on the face and hands OF
the criminal which showed beyond doubt that
the first shock killed him.
This ought to put aside completely all
the sensational stories to the effect that
Kemmler was tortured and died linger-
ing death, and that the execution was, in
short, a failure.
