NOTWITHSTANDING the fact that
the negro, Green Mills, was taken
from the Columbia Jail and hanged
by a mob in broad open daylight,
the coroner's jury rendered verdict
that he came to his death at the
hands of unknown men, and the
grand jury failed to find any indict-
ments. There is no doubt that the
negro richly deserved death, and
there is furthermore no doubt that
death would have been his punish
ment at the hands of the law. While
he deserved death, he was also en-
titled to the laws protection until
the law could have accomplished his
execution. There are cases in which
we believe the people are perfectly
justitiable in putting an end to Grim
inals la Judge Lynch-the massacre
of the Italians at New sOrleans we
believe was such a case-but the
spirit of pob violence is getting mos
too rampant in some sections fol
public safety. Eight out Of ten O
these mobs could be foiled without
shedding drop Of blood, if sheriff.
and jailors 8Eould only do theil
sworn duty. The sheriff of Maury
county displayed cowardice in hi
failure to protect the negro, and TIT
grand and coroner's juries displayed
cowardice in their actions upon thu
case. Reason about it as much a
you please, there is no getting arounC
the fact that the sheriff and iurie
utterly failed in their plain sworl
duties. Call such failures by pleas
anter names if you like, but still
they are nothing but cowardice. 4
mass meeting was held in Columbi
last Monday to express disapproba
ton of the deed, but it turned out +
be greater farce than anything els
in the history of the case. Maur,
county wants to create a healthie
public sentiment in favor of the su
premacy of the law, or else dire re
suits to the whole county will follow
