TO HANG.
A DALLAS JURY PUTS ON A LAW
AND ORDER MOVE.
Lafayette Rodgers Assessed the Death
Penalty for His Criminal Assault
on Rhoda May Dexter.
Special to the Gazette.

Special to the Gazette
DALLAS, Tex, July 3.-To-day. for the
first time in over ten years, a Dallas county
Jury made a conviction and assessed the
death penalty.
Lafayette Rodgers was at 9:15 o'clock TO-
night pronounced guilty of criminal assault
and the penalty was fixed at death.
Rodgers has been on trial for the past
three days on an indictment of criminal as
sault, the ofense having been committed
against Rhoda May Dexter, aged nine
years.
The testimony given during the trial was
most conclusive, showing Rodgers to be u
depraved brute. Under the pretext
of treating the child to q milk shake
he took her from her home and
assault upon her in open daylight, threaten
she ever told OF the affair. Once at home
the child broke down and told
her mother of the horrible
crime Rodgers was arrested May
20, the night of the day on which the crime
was committed.
There was not a person who knew the
circumstances but thought Rodgers should
be hung, and the verdict tonight
was entirely satisfactory TO all If
a less sentence had been inflicted it
is doubtful if the prisoner would have
ever reached the jail, as a well organized
effort would have been made to secure the
man and lynch him. This sentiment pre-
vailed to.a great extent and hundreds Of
men waited to hear the verdict. but as it
was satisfactory ali parties dispersed in
good order when Rodgers was taken to the
iail where he will wait the death sentence

If Governor Hogg tries 10 put down muir
der and lawlesSness In Texas, will not the
vicious elements all over the state unite 10
oppose him, People who favor law and
order should watch the opposition TO Gov
ernor Hogg That opposition will assume
virtue it has not, and by opposing Gov
ernor Hogg on other grounds seek to re-
move from power man who has an
nounced his resolve to fight lawlessness
in every guise.-I Fort Worth GAZETTE.
It has been animated more than once
lately that certain combinations are in pro-
cess of incubation to fight Hogg. but if the
governors disposition and determination 10
have the laws enforced be the only grounds
for attack; he will be in no danger Hous-
ton Post.
We have it straight from headquarters
the Fort Worth GAzETTE-that only the
lawless or their apologists will oppose Gov
ernor Hogg. Hereafter must we put our
hands on our mouths in the dust when
we speak his name The immacu-
late Mr.. Hogg; the embodiment of honesty /;
the apotheosis OF wisdOm-thespuppet of the
Tyler mailkmaids Waco Day.
The Day is disingenuous. THE GA
ZETTE did not say or mean to say that
''only the lawless" oppose Governor
Hogg. THE GAZETTE did say and
meant to say that lawless men would
oppose Governor Hogg if he sought to
suppress them; and the Day knows as
well as THE GAZETTE that this is true.
The Day should not permit its opposi-
ton 10 Governor Hogg to obscure its
sense of justice and fair treatment OF
others who cannot see men and meas
ures as the Day views them.

THE ALIEN LAND LAW GOES TOO FAR

Lawyers appear to agree that the
alien land law is unconstitutional. In
that event it cannot last long enough
TO do any very serious damage A de-
cision by the supreme court can be
reached within year perhaps. or very
little more. But if the Objectionable
features can be removed and the law
amended so as to make it just what the
people want, at special session of the
legislature, it will be all the better for
Texas. That can be done inside OF SIX
or seven months. A supreme court de-
cision can not be reached that soon,
and the sooner the mischief is bauished
from the law. the better.
The law as it stands came in response
to demand from The people. The leg
islature felt doubtless that duty re-
quired some such law. But it exceeded
its duty. 1t went too far. 1t did more
than it was asked to do More than
the people wanted, and mere than is
good for them. 1t not only prohibited
the alien ownership OF land, but it
went further and added provision
that vitiates or clouds titles. Was that
necessary to the main purpose OF the
law? Not at all. 1t was not only SUI
perhuous. but extremely miscellaneous.
The legislature never meant that the
law should have that effect. Its pres
ence in the bill is due TO haste
and want of reflection, such as are apt
to damage the most important ana nee
essarY bills that have to be put through

Tho Bottom Out.
Galveston Tribune.

The investigation is about over. Judge
McOord knocked the bottom out of II. But
what if he did, he and others have been
dragged from their homes and kept here for
weeks on expense 10 answer whats That's
the question. The state dragged them here,
and all TO no more purpose than TO pander
TO and assist in the most depraved and vii
lainous piece Of attempted political black
mail in the form Of revenge. Now that il is
over, what has been gained by it, And
what a pretty place the state is occupying
as chestnut scratcher for q few disap-
pointed Tylerpieites. 1t would be amusing
We're it not such serious matter, for under
the established precedent any man, judge
or lawyer can be dragged up and be made
to prove himself an honest man. 1t will be
a hard matter for some of the latter named
class to do unless they are allowed consid-
cradle lime for consultation and rehearsal.

RATHER q peculiar condition of
affairs exists in New Orleans. \ postal
telegraph company wanted to lay their
wires underground, but the city re-
fused to let them do so. a private cor
poration had built a number of towers
over the city for the purpose of string
ing wires from these, charging the
telegraph, telephone and electric light
companies a rental for the use of the
towers. The city council that denied
to the postal telegraph company the
right to lay their wires underground
left them nothing to do but to accept
the offer of the tower company. Under
such conditions the tower company
ought 10 do a rushing business. If it
is not an impertinent question, how
much stock do the New Orleans alder
men own in that company?
