MOB VIOLENCE EINNEWORLEANS

The nations of Sicily are notably re-
vengeful and bloody. Among them
fiourished the vendetta, and among
those of them who have settled in this
country exists the Malta. This organ
tion is especially strong at New Orleans,
where numerous murders have been
laid at its door. A few months ago Da-
vid Hennessey was elected Chief of Po-
lice of New Orleans He had ayowed
his intention of breaking down the
Malta. Soon after his election he was
assassinated. Nineteen members of the
Malta were accused of the crime. Citi-
zens organized to prosecute them,
while contributions poured in from
Italians everywhere for their defense.
Three of them had mistrials. Jurors
were corrupted, and on Friday four
more of the nineteen were acquitted.
Public indignation rose. A call for a
meeting of citizens was issued. On Sat
urday morning 5000 solid and reputable
citizens met at the statue of Henry Clay.
Speeches were made melting to action.
The meeting became a maddened mob.
Arming themselves with rifles and re-
volvers they rushed to the prison, storm
ed the doors, overpowered the keeper,
and shot down with little discrimina-
tion eleven of the imprisoned Italians,
dragging several of the corpses to the
street, and stringing them to posts. The
press of New Orleans were unanimous in
defense of the deed, and Boards of
trade and Exchanges upheld it. The
press of the country outside is united
in condemning the killing. Secretary
Blaine sent dispatch to the Governor
of Louisiana calling attention to the fact
that the mob's action was a violation of
our treaty with Italy. Italian citizens
in almost every large city met and
clamored for reparation. The Italian
government has instructed Baron De
Fava, the italian Minister at Washing
ton, to present vehement protest to
the United States government against
the action of the mob, and our govern
ment has promised to make an investi-
CATION The local officials at New Or
leans have promised to punish the Of
Tenders, but it is well understood that
nothing will be done. The general feel
ing throughout the country seems to set
strongly against the mob. Such vio-
lence is always to be deprecated and
checked, and it is questionable if it is
ever justifable. The feelings, how
ever, of the people of New Olleans
should be considered. Murder after
murder, for which no one had suffered,
had angered them. They felt that no
mans life was safe from the knife of
the assassin, and that the city was men
aced by dark foe that must be destroyed
or there would be no safety or peace.
Justice at law had notoriously miscar-
ried, and the hot blood of the South
could not await the slow forms of legal
redress. Their action was unlawful,
cruel and bloody, but there was in it a
show of Justice.

ment, in It's editorial columns, the fol-
lowing from the Kansas City Gazette:
1.-The alliance crusade against the
merchants Is all wrong. NO other class
of men in Kansas have suffered so
much by hard times as the storekeeD
ers. There have been FIVE failures
among the merchants to one among the
farmers; the farmer needs the country
merchants and the merchants need the
support of the farmer. They are mu-
tually benefited by the most cordial
relations, and it will be sorry day for
the farmers of Kansas when the little
stores are closed and the storekeepers
forced back upon FARMS
If the Cresset were well posted i'm al
lance affairs it would know that ther:'
have been propositions made over and
over and over, to start an alliance store
at Medicine Lodge. These propositions
have come from outside capitalists
who ask no money, and no subscriptions,
of stock. They only ask support Of al
lance people. and promise to give then
advantages they do not enjoy. Yet on
farmers have invariably refused to even
promise to patroniZe the store, know
it would hurt the men who are already
in business here. We have heard men
say that though every merchant i'm
