A Serious Question.

EDITOR Observation-Disclosures in
attendance at the meetings at the
court house last week / heard
several times the statements that
there are over forty whisky holes
within the limits of our town.
have also heard that there are
thirty-tive or forty Government
licenses held here, aud as yet
neither one Of these statements
has been refuted or denied. so far
as ! have been able to lee IN. TO
me this seems marvellous. How
are the persons owning these
dens protected as other criminals
are not? Are they bound togeth-
err in a secret band sworn to
further the interests of each
other openly violating the law
and dragging our young boys and
mep down TO mInY Are they all
members of one church or off
spring Of the same nation so that
octopus like they can clasp a
thousand Shiny, hellish arms
around the limbs OF our officers
and etfectually prevent the en-
forcement of our laws? Or must
we jump at conclusions and say
to the descredit Of our officers.
The iingling OF the guinea helps the
the heart that honor feels?''
In the name of all that is right
what does it mean?
A moral, upright citizen may
walk our streets with q revolver
minus hammer, trigger and
barrel in his pocket, and if it is
discovered. ten 10 one. he will be
fined for carrying q concealed
weapon. Yet right under our
eyes and emphatically within the
range of our nasal organs the law
is violated scores of times each
day. Is it because they go about
it in an open AID fearless manner
with no effort at concealment,
that these criminals go unpun-
ished? Go into the street any
day and you ean see their signs,
a burly, blear-eyed, red nosed,
bloated specimen of humanity
standing in the door of a room
across the middle OF which is
erected a partition. says as plain.

swindle people out of their money.
Several hundred students ut Ann Arbor
have been victimized. They paid one
dollar each IN advance, to an employ
ment bureau to secure job during va
cation, and recently one of the students
began to make some inquiries and dis.
covered that no such bureau existed.
The advertisers had bled the students
for all they were worth and then pull

Similar schemes are being worked and
people would do well to be cautious be-

Another brief chapter IN the history
of the homestead difficulties near Iron
River was written on Wednesday and
Sheriff Ball, of this city, appeared In a
leading role. Isaac B. Christie had
taken up his residence on piece OF
the disputed land and refused to move
after proper legal notice had been
served. A writ of restitution was ac-
cordingly placed in the hands of the
sheriff and the officer visited the prem
ises on Wednesday. He removed the
lonely cabin dweller from his wonted
haunts and contributed toward re-
moving the hauuts by tearing downDthe
cabin. Possession of the property was
then given to Thos. G.. Atkinson

The L'Anse sentinel. (L'Anse, L.S., Mich.) 18??-current, 1893-05-13

The first lyncliing on the new Me-
saba iron range, occurred Saturday
afternoon. An unknown man enticed
two little girls, one aged five and the
other six, into the woods at the village
of Mountain Iron and criminally as
saulted them. AS soon as it was
learned that the deed had been COM
mitted, all mining work was suspended.
A party started in search of the man
and throughout the night the search
was kept up. At daylight over 200
men joined in securing the hills and
woods. At noon the searchers dis
covered the brute hidden behind a
pile of rubbish in the rear of saloon.
In the midst of band of resolute
miners the man was half dragged, half
carried, to an opening in the woods on
the outskirts of the place. Cries of
"Kill him, ""Shoot him." Burn him.
Hang him." were heard on every side,
and when the clearing was reached q
rope had already been thrown over a
projecting limb. The frightened vii
lain was asked if he had anything to
say. He was too badly frightened to
articulate, and when the respite had
expired, hundred hands hauled up
the rope. In a moment the body was
dangling in the air ten feet from the
ground and as the last expiring
twinges of his limbs told them that the
moment of death was at hand, score
of revolver bullets we're fired into his
body. There was no attempt at con-
cealment on the part of those taking
part in the lynching and there will be
no attempt made to arrest them.
