BostOn's Manifesto.

Those Boston people who held a mass
meeting. Tuesday night, put in Wig
orous protest against lynch law. They
refer to the brutalities in the way OF
roasting and mutilating which, in very
recent times, have added new horrors
to the lynching process; they demand
respect for the law of the land, and
they invoke the shades OF Garrison.
Phillips, Sumner and others in witness
of the Righteousness of their plea.
No man ventures to come out in open
advocacy of lynching. yet II is piece
OF brutality which in recent times has
oftenfound excuse; 1t has almost gained
recognition as the proper treatment In
eUpiation for certain heinous crimes. 1t
is not denied that the increase in the
number OF cases where lynching is re-
sorted to is suspiciously rapid or that
the tendency is to apply 1t to a con-
stantly widening range OF offenses.
Some time ago the Standard printed
the figures showing how many cases Of
lynching had occurred within a period
of twelve months. 1t was an alarming
total.
The old-fashion process, under lynch
law, was to hang summarily and have
done with the offender. Communities
are disgraced where, under modern pro-
cesses, the guilty man is first fiayed
and then hanged, or burned at the
stake, or tortured under processes sur
passing the cruelties of the inquisition.
1t revoIts humanity to read that the
severed head of an offender was carried
as in triumph TO the parents of a child
who had been outraged; this refining
of cruelty meets no response in the
breast OF decent citizens.
The Boston meeting was held under
the auspices Of various societies of col
ored people. 1t is true that in a large
majority of instances lynch law has
been visited upon colored men in Sec
tions of the South. But It is also true
that, within about three years. the
scope of territory within which lynch
law has had victims has been greatly
enlarged-the stain of lawless process
is on many northern and western states
and, in a number of instances. white
men have been it's objects.
| Protests like those that come from
Boston are constant. Naturally every
good instinct in civilized communities
resents the lynching plan, yet 1t seems
to hold its own and more. The causes
for this tendency are not hard to find
Americans are not people OF brutal in.
stlncts. When in this country justice
is swift and sure in the pursuit and
punishment OF capital cffenders-as Il
is in England. for instance-lynch law
will become a thing of the past.

That is an expectation and a belief

lis he is an utter stranger to the people

DRUNKENNESS A DISEASE.
Acknowledgement of the. Fact In thu
Austrian Reichsrath.

Acknow,e igemnt of the. Fact In the
Austrian Reichsrath.
Medical men generally have for years
been of the opinion that drunkenness as
it exists to-day is a disease-created, per-
haps, by moderate indulgence, but ulti-
mately becoming as much part OF the
human system as any other disease OF
the blood. The first instance in which a
legislative assembly has treated the
drink habit as disease rendering its
victim a source of danger to the state
has just been provided by a bill about to
be introduced to the Austrian reichsrath.
This bill proposes to treat the persistent
drunkard as a person who Is mentally in
capable and likely to infiict injury upon
the community, not only by actual vio-
lence, but by his example. 1t is therefore
proposed that the authorities shall keep
him under control, both during good be-
havior and for such longer time as in the
opinion of competent physicians will
serve to wean him from his craving for
strong drink.
This bill is the result of a long-contin-
ued series of efforts by the medical pro-
fession of Austria. The ground has been
taken that the position of the drunkard
in social life has not been properly .esti-
mated. 1t is argued that he should be re-
garded more as a lunatic than is at pres
emit the case, and that he should be treat
ed accordingly. There has always exist
ed a feeling that the craving for drink,
with it's consequences. ought to be treat
ed as a mere bad habit, a temporary and
recoverable error, not really form OF
mental disorder. This, there can be but
little doubt, is a false reasoning, for evil
dence has multiplied in recent years that
the victim to alcohol is subject to dis
ease, just as much as maniac or luna
tic.
The bill to which reference has been
made may be taken as fairly represent
ing medical opinions on this subject.
Modification in detail may, perhaps, be
found advisable as time goes on. but the
profession will probably approve the bill
on it's general outlines. The attempt to
repress the excessive drinking habit and
to treat Il as an ingrained vice, which
has absorbed all traces of a resisting
will, certainly deserves fair trial. Ev-
cry precaution will be made to render the
preliminary investigation as searching as
possible. and no personal privileges will
, be lost by detention.
