Ston 1t.

We are confident we voice the sentiment
Of the best element of the southern people
when we say that lynchings must be
stopped. There is one crime for which a
considerable portion Of the people excuse
lynch law, and that is rape, but, as we
have pointed out many times. If it is ex-
cused for one crime it will be resorted to
for other crimes.
The thing 10 do is 10 stop lynchings,
and the way TO stop them is to enforce
the law vigorously against those who par
ticipate in them. The law makes the
lynching of a man murder, and if lynch
ers were dealt with as murderers there
would be very few lynchings.
There is no excuse for lynch la " in any
part Of the south. There are courts for
the trial of criminals. Let the courts
deal with criminals and if they don't deal
with them promptly and vigorously let
public opinion deal with the courts.
We have in mind the lynching Of six
black men near Memphis Friday night,
an account of which appears in our dis
patches this morning. The men were
accused Of arson, They may have been
guilty. There Is a possibility that some
or all of them were innocent. Even if
they were guilty, they were entitled to a
fair trial They didn't have a trial
They were murdered.
II is said the men who lynched them are
unknown. They can be discovered if a
proper effort is made, and the authorities
will be guilty OF a neglect Of duty if they
don't discover them, and make them
answer for their crime.
Lynchings in this state have practically
ceased since Gov. Northen has taken a
firm stand against them. Let all the
governors take the same firm stand in
favor of compelling respect for the law,
and public opinion will become so strong
against lynchings that the punishment of
criminals, whatever their crime may be,
will be left to the courts, and the courts
will be required to have the offenders
promptly tried, and if guilty, punished.

Aldermen For Profit.

Judging from the New Orleans papers
the people of that city are profoundly
grieved by the discovery that so many of
their aldermen are candidates for the
penitentiary. Eleven aldermen, together
with the city engineer, have been in
dicted for bribe taking. One of them has
been tried and convicted, no defense
having been made, and all of them stand
good chance of being condemed to wear
stripes. Only a day or two ago one of
them was arrested while in the act
OF receiving 500 bribe. 1t is
suspected that there are others who ought
to be indicted, and would be, probably, if
satisfactory evidence. could be obtained
against them.
The New Orleans aldermen appear to
have taken Office not for the purpose of
caring for the city's interests, but to rob
the city and the people. They have
passed ordinances granting concessions
to individuals and corporations only when
paid to do so, and they have demanded
and received big bribes.
1t has long been suspected that there
was vast deal of corruption among the
New Orleans officials. 1t is a wonder
that with such men in charge of her
affairs the city has prospered so greatly.
The question might be asked, why
it is that trustworthy men are
not elected to Office. The answer
is plain enough A thoroughly
bad element has control of the city. And
that element will continue in control un-
less those who are interested in promot-
ing the city's welfare take an active part
in politics. The only thing that can save
the people of New Orleans from being
pillaged by their municipal servants is a
vigorous campaign against the thieves
and the political organizations of which
they are the leaders.
Municipal corruption is not confined to
New Orleans. 1t exists IN many of the
cities to a greater or less degree 1t is
time that a determined stand against it
should be taken. Otherwise the thieves
and bribe takers will defy public opinion,
and municipal governments will become
SO corrupt that heavier burdens will be
placed upon the people of cities than they
can bear

The Constitutional Amendments.

What about the constitutional amend
ments that are to be voted upon at the
approaching state election2 Are any of
the candidates discussing them, and ex-
planning the meaning of them, and what
their effect would be if they should be
adoptedl If not, why not? 1t is of the
utmost importance that the people should
vote understandingly upon these amend
ments.
One Of them provides that the legisla-
ture shall meet in the summer instead
of the fall; another provides for increas-
ing the number of the judges of the su-
preme court from three to five, and still
another provides for pensioning all ex-
confederate soldiers who are In an indi-
gent condition, whether they are suffer
ing from the effects of wounds or not.
There ought not to be any opposition to
the amendment changing the time of the
meeting of the legislature. The change
will accommodate those mem bers who are
farmers, who have more spare time in the
summer than in the fall. The sessions
are prolonged now because mem bers are
frequently absent at home when they
should be at Atlanta attending to the
duties for which they are very prompt in
drawing their per-diem compensation. If
the mem bers we're required to be pres
ent in the legislature every legislative
day, except when i'll, or lose their pay,
the work of the session could be done in
Just about one half the time that it is now.
The members neglect their duties and
dawdle away their time, and that is the
main reason why the cost of the legisla-
ture is so g eat.
The amendment increasing the number
of the supreme court judges should be
adopted. There is no doubt about that.
The people are more interested than the
lawyers in having more Judges The su-
preme court, as now constituted, cannot
do properly the work required of it, The
judges haven't time to write opinions.
They can do little more than render de-
cisions, making few notes to show their
reasons for deciding as they do. They
would get far behind with their work if
they should undertake to look up authori-
ties and make a thorough study of each
case
The people ought not to be left to vote
blindly on the pension amendment. There
ought to be a statement as to what
amount would be required to provide the
pensions contemplated. The amendment
would be adopted in all probability if it
were shown that it would not greatly in
crease the tax burden. The fear that it
would increase that burden beyond their
ability to pay might induce many voters
to cast their ballots against it. There is
an impression that it would require
much heavier tax than is at present col
lected to pension all the INDECENT ex-con-
federates in the state. That impression
should be corrected if it is wrong. An
estimate should be made of the amount
that would be required for pensions and
published, so that the people could vote
intelligently. IL is a mistaken policy not
to inform the people in respect to these
matters.

russdav,a Grand Rally.

Chairman Clay, of the democratic cam
paign committee of the state, has fixed
upon Tuesday next as the day for a grand
rally of the democracy at many points.
| A very large mum Der of the best stump
speakers Of the party will on that day ex-
plain democratic principles and expose
/ populist fallacies. 1t will be the purpose
1 Of these speakers to show what the Demo
] cratic party has accomplished in national
affairs since it has been clothed with
power, and to give reasons why IL should
be continued in power, not only In this
state, but also at Washington. There
has been a good deal of criticism of the
democrats for failing to do all that was
expected of them, but great reforms are
not accomplished in day. II requires
time to effect reforms. The Democratic
party as done remarkably well in the
short time it has been in control
of the government. 1t has made
changes in the tariff which are
Of inestimable benefit to farmers and
manufacturers, and it has introduced
such economy in the administration of
the government that millions of dollars
will be saved to the people annually.
II is an easy matter 10 find fault with
the party in power, even when it has
done all that it promised to do. The
speeches of Judge Hines, Mr.. Watson and
other populists are almost wholly made
up of fault finding. Unable to defend
successfully the nonsensical demands of
their own party they seek TO make popu-
list converts by attacking the Democratic
party.
We are certain that on Tuesday, and
on each succeeding DAY of the campaign,
the democratic speakers will have no
trouble in satisfying democrats that the
Democratic party is deserving of praise
for what it has done, and that before
this congress is ended it will do all that
it promised the people it would.
There is one thing that the democratic
speakers should keep in mind on Tuesday,
and for the remainder of the campaign,
and that is that the doctrines of the
Democratic party are stated clearly in
the national democratic platform. The
statements of the platform need no inter-
probation. They are so clear that no one
can fail to understand them. The state
ment in respect tdssilver is particularly
lucid. 1t is that the Democratic party
does not favor any financial legislation
that would not, with absolute certainty,
keep the silver dollar on parity with the
gold dollar. In other words, the Demo-
cratic party is a sound money party.
There are some democrats who have
got on the populist platform so far as
silver is concerned. They should get off
of it at once. If they think
they will win populists to democracy
by accepting the populist doctrine in re-
spect to silver they are making a great
mistake. 1t is mistake OF which the pop
ulists will make effective use. The dis
tinction between the democratic position
in respect TO silver and that of the popu-
list is very marked. The democrats are
for sound money and the populists are for
debased money.
If the democratic speakers and news
papers stand squarely on the democratic
platform the victory of the democracy in
October will be greater than that of two
years ago. III
