WHILE the crimes for which men
have been recently lynched in various
parts Of the country are of the most
revolving character and naturally
arouse the strongest feelings of re-
venge in a community directly af-
fected, they are nevertheless a
national disgrace. Mobs do not act
under the influence of reason and are
not controlled by lay. They dea!
out vengeance, not justice, yet in
some places these mobs have taken
the places Of courts and usurped the
functions Of executive officers. The
existence of palliating circumstances
must in some instances be admitted,
because there are outrages that shock
the public sense of right beyond con-
troll, but there is nothing that can
wholly excuse the breaking of the
law in order to anticipate the punish
ment which it provides for crime. AS
the country grows more familiar with
lynchings the sentiment against this
illegal infection of capital punish
ment grows less aggressive, and the
crimes for which offenders are thus
summarily dealt with become less
serious. 1t is but comparatively
few years since none but the worst
outrages against female children
caused an infection of lynch law, and
then only after the guilt Of the ac-
cused was established beyond all
doubt Later there were cases where
aggravated murders were punished
by mob violence, and then came a
series of cases, North and South,
where the result of victims wounds
were not awaited, but where death at
hands of organized lawbreakers was
melted out. In New Orleans men
were hanged after a court of COM
petent Jurisdiction had pronounced
them innocent, and at Shelbyville a
man was hung before his victim had
died. At Memphis four negroes were
hung for an assault that has not yet
proved fatal, and at Findlay there is
strong evidence that the man hung
by the mob was insane, and therefore
irresponsible. Not only do the mobs
not lessen the crimes for which they
wreak vengeance but increase the
ferocity with which they infiict it.
1t is not long since the world was hor-
rified by the burning Of Mexican in
Texas, and little later an Arkansas
mob danced around negro who was
slowly cremated. If there can be a
case which justifies lynching it is that
of Eph. Grizzard, who was recently
hanged by desperate mob near
Nashville, but the law would soon
have visited upon him the extreme
penalty by administering which the
law has been broken. A stop should
be put TO lynching and no endeavor
to punish those who engage in II
should be omitted. 1t is high time
to call halt.

THE smuggling of Cinnamon across
the border must be stopped. The
customs inspectors have just taken
two or three mild-eyed Celestials,
who we're brought across the Cana
dian border in defiance of Uncle Sam,
and they will doubtless send them
back. But something more than
sending back the culprits should be
done. The Canadian Government
should be instructed that the United
States is not disposed to tolerate such
looseness Of frontier inspection. A
regular conspiracy seems to exist in
Canada for sending both Celestials
and opium here, despite all our legis-
ton.

THE old colored woman who used
to carry love letters between Abra-
ham Lincoln and Miss Todd has just
passed away in Chicago. There
seems to be no doubt that her claim
to the distinction was well founded.
She had abundant proofs of it, and
her dates we're all right. What is
distressing about the matter is that
Mrs. Smith is likely to become the
forerunner of long line OF similar
claimants. George Washington's
body servant died every year for a
quarter of a century and in many
widely separated parts of the country.
The negro servant of President Lin
coln will probably be dying for the
