THE AMELIA LYNCHING.

The Amelia lynching furnishes The
Times with another opportunity TO enter
its most solemn protest against this brutal
defiance OF all law and order. No man
has any assurance Of protection in any
right whatever if public opinion Justihes
this abrogation OF law. There can be
no law for any case II those who choose
to do so may, when they think proper,
claim that some offence is outside the
jurisdiction Of the law. The law must
be universal and applicable 10 all cases,
or it is no law at all. II any ofrense is
to be put beyond the law at the will OF
individuals then all offenses may be so
outlawed. The way 10 end the crime
for which this negro was lynched Is TO
punish II promptly and certainly accord
ing to law, and the way TO secure this
is for the people to see that those whom
they put in Office to administer the laws,
are qualified TO do so and have a viii
TO perform their duty.
Whatever those engaged in that
lynching may think OF themselves, I'm the
eye OF the law and OF every right-minded
man, they are participants in murder.

had all the appearance OF deliberation
and forethoueht this inslnuation that the

bears all the marks OF II. 1t Is almost
impossible to believe that the speaker
was unconscious Of what he was saying.

what ne said In the Senate on Thursday;

IsEvERY SILVER ADVOCATE HoxEsrq

In another article In to-day's issue. on
Senator Teller's speech, we have given
fair specimen Of free coinage argument
alton. We shall devote this one TO some
remarks on the personnel OF a distinguish
ed free silver statesman. SenatorStewart
of Nevada. When the act of 1878 demon
etizing silver was passed. It was thorough
ly explained In both branches Of Congress
and the fact that II forbade the silver
dollar TO be coined was as well under
stood as any provision Of any act OF Con-
gress that was ever adopted The public
records show this to absolute demonstra-
ton, as any one can see for himself il he
will ask his senator OF congressman to
Sherman delivered In the Senate on
Wednesday, August goth. 1888 There are
an abundance Of copies OF this speech, and
1t collects together all the record evidence
within a short space The man who here
after says this act was passed surrepti-
tiously. with knowledge Of the existence Of
this speech, IS lending himself to the cir
culation OF a. falsehood. Every senator
from the Pacific coast voted for the pas
sage of this act. The mines out there had
not then begun TO yield silver largely.
The act provided for the coinage OF the
trade dollar. and the Pacific coast want
ed this in trading with China and Japan
As their mines were not then yielding
much silver they were indifferent TO the
fact that the act forbade the coin
age OF the Az liz grain dollar. and as il
provided for the trade dollar that they
wanted, II was entirely acceptable 10 them
SO that they willingly voted for its pas
sage. understanding what IT meant. Sem
ator Stewart, Of Nevada, was at that time
a member Of the Senate. What position
did he then take respecting this measure?
He voted for it. and he knew that It de-
monetized silver. We say he knew II be-
cause every man must be supposed TO
know the purpose OF an act which he
supports and votes for, and because in
one year from the time the act passed the
Senate he made a speech in that body
which showed that he then knew the fact
and was glad Of 1t. On February 18th,
1874, ne made a speech in which he used
this language:
