LYNCHERS ACQUITTED.
The Seven Defendants Found by the
Jury to be Temporarily Insane.

The lynchiug trial which has
been in progress at a special term
of the circuit court held at Darling
ton, and which awakened great in
terest in this vicinity, and more
or less throughout the state, came
to an end last Monday evening,
when the jury, after deliberatio n
of but an hour and half, brought
in the following verdict:
we the jury aud that we have a reasonable
doubt of the sanity of the defendants John A.
Meighan John f. Meighan, Frank Meighan.
Frank Bliss, Hezekiah Andrews, Thomas
Smith, and AIonzo Taylor at the time of the
commission of the otfeuse charged against
them in the Indictment aud we, therefore,
find them not guilty. We also find that the
following of the above named de PENDANTS
have not recovered from such insanity and are
now of unsound mind; John Meghan,
Hezekiah Andrews, aud Alonzo Taylor.
This is interesting, to say the
least. Opinions as the justness of
the verdict differ widely. There is
but little doubt but what a streak
of desire, to have the men who
participated in the lynchiug let off
reasonably easy, permeated the feel
ings of a majority. But that the
old insanity plea secures the ac-
quittal of seven men, acting in
unison and deliberately, in violation
of all law, after ample time had
intervened for their wild passions
to have subsidized, staggers fair
minded and law-loving citizens, and
besides arouses them to a realiza-
ton of the fact that the passionate
and willful characters are in de-
gree unbridled, and the protection
thrown around human life has been
made less protective. As Mil
waukee paper says: "Whatever
may have been the jury's real be-
lief as to the responsibility of these
men, there is 10 doubt that the YER
diet will be the subject of ridicale
wherever it is read. 1t will seem
marvellous strange that four men,
all neighbors, residing in a particu
lar part of the country, should all
have gone insane at a particular
time, should all have gone to town
at particular time, should have
Joined three other lunatics, should
have taken part in the hanging of a
man, ana that then these four
lunatics shoGld all have recovered
their reason at the same time. For
the jury finds that these four men
are not insane now"
BY the same paper the jury Is
advised "never to get into any
trouble with any of these seven
men-because these seven men now
have license to kill, their suscepti-
billty to emotional insanity having
been established by the jury. AS
insanity appears to take on an epi-
demic form in La Fayette county,
the public will look with interest
to the future of its citiz ems"
Seibolt, the man lynched by these
Sc ven men, was surely as insane
when he committed murder, as
were they when they did the lynch
ing, or else was acting in self de-
fense, and therefore equally en-
titled to a trial and liberty.

FARMERS are learning that it pays
TO keep the strict account of their
business that merchants do. Many of
them are keeping itemized accounts
of their receipts and expenditures,
so that they may know at the end
of each year just how they stand
financially; whether they have made
or lost money. Every farmer should
take an inventory of what he
possesses, including his farm, stock,
machinery and other things of value
used by him in carrying on his
farm, once a year. Then he should
keep an exact account of his receipts
and expenditures, showing the
number of bushels of grain raised,
as we'll as the other products Of the
farm, and the expense of raising
and marketing the same. If IL is
necessary for merchant to take an
account of stock, and keep track Of
expenses, it certainly may be con
sidered good policy for farmers to
dc the same. The work, Of doing
this in the case of a farmer, is not
great, and the benefits arising from
systematic itemizing of receipts
and expenditures are not only high
ly beneficial, but extremely salts
factory. At many of our county
fairs prizes are offered to those
young farmers who can show the
best set of books Kept for the
purposes of the farm. Many Of
the sons Of farmers are attending
business colleges and learning the
art Of bookkeeping, and they can
use their knowledge in that
| direction as well on the farm as in
the counting room.
