Of course revolt our moral and our COM
mon sense. yet these are the inevitable
consequences that must flow from any
principle except the safe one that no
man IL TO be punished for crime until he
has had fair end open trial, and then
only In accordance with the laws OF the
land.
Lynching having been held justinable
in the case OF brutal assaults. the natural
logic was the application OF the same
method to other offences, and so the list
Of crimes. real or supposed, 10 when
lynch law is applied in various parts OF
the country. has grown enormously IS
still growing. and no one can tell where
IL will stop. The distress which individ-
uals suffer-as victims or Witnesses In
going through the ordeal of trial Is
lamentabie, but it IL the tribute which
all COED citizens must pay for the pres
eryation Of law and order and for the
maintenance Of the peace and dignity OF

statement as It printed 1t from son''
other Populist paper and was itse'i INA
posed on. But, however this may w.
lie extract quoted is a misquotation Vi
Mr.. Hoopers speech. He said no sueh
thing as he Is therein stated 10 ha''
said. The passage In his speech reads as
follows:
ERNEST seyd. OF London. distinguish
ed writer. who has given great AFTERNOON
TO Che subject Of minis ana coinage, HI. ~,
.xarining the first drafts or the Dill,
FURNISHED many valuable Suggestions
which have been incorporated IN uhe
BILL"
This ia what the Record states thai MI.
HOOPER said and what The Sun published
and made us publish, as what he said, Is a
earbIed version of IT that puts words into
Mr.. Hoopers mouth that he never utter
ed. He did not say that Mr.. Seyd was
then here. He did not say that he was
ever here. He said what was the exact
truth. that Mr.. Seyd had examined the
bill and had made valuable suggestions,
which had been incorporated In the bill.
And we have already stated more than
once, that when Mr.. Hooper had charge
OF the demonetizing act he sent copy
of Il to London 10 Mr.. Seyd, who wrote
him an elaborate letter pointing out 10
him that the bill demonetized silver, ana
arguing against this being done, besides
suggesting a number OF amendments con-
corning the details of coinage. some OF
which suggestions Mr.. Hooper stated the
committee had adopted. Mr.. seyds let
ter to Mr. Hooper is in the Congressional
Record and can be seen by any one.
Thus 1t is that misrepresentation al
ways come back to plague the inventor.

SOME TnouGmrs on LYNcnING.


Mr.. J. r. Snow. OF northumberland
county, writes us asking II We would ran
TO take a negro's life who outraged GER
tain relations very near ana dear 10 us
The common argument for iyncning is in
voived in this inquiry and we snail give
what appears to us to be the sensible ana
proper answer to IT.
If we should come upon negro after
such an act we should probably ria the
world Of him. The laws of all civilized
people justify homicide under sueh cir
cumstances. II IS what is known 10 the
law as killing in hot blood" The law
makes allowances for human inurmities,
and II supposes a man under such circum-
stances to lose his reason temporarily.
and TO be therefore no more responsible
for his acts than maniac is. But when
what the law calls cooling time" has IN
tervened between the outrage ana an al
tempt TO take the vioiaters life, It Will
not tolerate the angry mans attempt 10
vindicate himself. and much less n mob
OF outsiders 1t says that that cooling
~
possession OF his faculties. and that. hav-
ing them. he should act as reasonable
man. and no reasonable man condemns
any one on charge MADE against him
until he has had fair and open trial,
and no reasonable man takes the Ire from
any ore except under the sentence ana
condemnation of the law. FOR these rea-
sons we say to Mr.. Snow that as far as
human nature woulc permit we should
<ndeavor to allow the law 10 have It's
course in our own case as we think should
be done I'm ali other cases
These principles are so elementary that
we can hardly be justified in wasting
space TO elaborate and enforce them.
But this remark is entirely in order II
lynchlng by mob law is permitted in any
case. then all sense OF necessity for obe
dience TO the laws is taken out OF the citi-
zen's mind. II public opinion tustihes a
mob-not the injured person-in setting
the law at defiance in one case, upon
what principle can II condemn the mob
in another? The law must be the law,
which means submission TO II in all cases,
or II is no law al all.
Now what do We find as the conse-
quences OF tolerating lynching? We find
that II is spreading until all conservative
men are becoming alarmed actually for
our civilization. One Of the negroes
iynched at Roanoke has been since as
certained TO have been entirely Innocent.
Another, that the mob there was bent on
iynching. was saved by the officers OF the
law and was afterwards shown to be
innocent. Three negroes were iynched
some two weeks back IN Louisiana be-
cause they could not. or would not. tell
WHARF thsis brother. whom the mob was
