After about five minutes we went out

colored man, with his right foot and leg

Col. Ingersoll has the kindest OF
hearts towards all mankind. Only a

man?" said the Colonel, coming right
to the point.

The reporter "hred away" on the

and soon had material which he
made into copy salable to a syndicate

nature exhausted with a single inter

THERE must be some reason for
the increase of laWlessnesS in this
country and most people will not
seek far to find it. There is a grow
ing contempt for the forms and the
authority of law that is only too sig

people are lacking in respect for the
law, but that they are sick and tired
of it's maladministration The men
why lynch assassins are in the wrong,
of course, but they are not without
excuse; the citizens who tear UP the
tracks of marauding railroad COM
panies rather than invoke the aid Of
the courts are also justified to some
extent. The lynchers know that the
assassin, if left to the law, will evade
Justice for months or years and may
escape it altogether. AS for fighting
railroad corporation in the courts,
no man of sense dreams of such d
thing nowadays. All the tricks and
devices that can be invented by high
salaried lawyers are against the citi-
zen, and the interminable delays and
extravagant cost Of litigation can be
borne only by a wealthy corporation.
Justice, or that which is now called
Justice, is in most cases at the dis
posal Of the wrongdoer. The victim
is forced out of court by technical
titles. the DELAYS of the law or the
sheer weight Of money. That is why
lawlessness is spreading. Men have
no reverence for the law which pro-
tects only the lawbreakers.
