cipal Offices and some part Of the prop

any court which, after such action, re-
fuses to recognize this as court Of
primary jurisdiction, would invite criti-
cism and rebuke. There is thus estab-
lished, without congressional action,
rule Of procedure that will prevent
hereafter such a conflict as has, in
this instance, stopped scarcely short Of
public scandal.
We need not say that the decision Of

great system to a paying basis, which
has progressed so rapidly under their

proceed until the insolvency is ended

A NOVEL REMEDY.

While human nature averages about
the same in all parts of the country,
there are social conditions in the South
that make lynchings there more fire.
quent than in any other portion. The
days have passed when vigilance COM
mittees in the mining states held their
courts, with Judge Lynch on the bench,
and hung desperadoes with scant cour-
tesy If with ample justice Now and
then in the North some crime, more
heinous than usual. provokes the wrath
OF the populace, and the offender is
given short shrift; but it is in the South
that these impromptu executions are
the most frequent. OF late the papers
+ Of the South have been leading a cru
SADIE against these illegal administra-
tons Of justice having discovered that
the people outside their states, ignor-
ant of the social conditions out Of which
the lynchings spring, regard it as in
dicating general lawlessness which
renders settlement there undesirable.
Last year Gov. Atkinson, of Georgia,
recommended, as a remedial measure,
that the county in which any lynch
ing occurred should be held liable in
damages to the personal representatives
Of the deceased for the injury sustained
by the unlawful act of the mob The
South Carolina legislature is the first
to act on the suggestion, and a bill
has passed authorizing such action to
be brought, and making a county la
bic for the amount of damages the jury
may award. Now Gov. Bradley of
Kentucky, sends special message to
the legislature recommending that
similar act be passed in that state,
limiting the damages to $1,000. The
movement is SO strong, and the inter-
est behind the measure so pressing,
that it is probable that the Southern
states will all follow South Carolina
in this effort to supersede the methods
Of Judge Lynch's court with those of
the established courts.
Back Of the movement there is reason
to add interest. The basis of govern
ment the justification of it's existence,
is that it protects life and property.
The state has hitherto been immune
from the justice that makes the indi-
vidual responsible to the injured for his
acts. Corporations are held liable for
damages caused by their neglect or
the carelessness Of their employees. The
basis of liability is the contract for
safe carriage, in the case Of railways;
for the employment Of careful men or
the use Of safe implements, in the case
Of others. Is there not the same basis
of contract between the state and the
citizen? Does not the former implicitly
contract that in consideration of the
payment by the latter Of his share Of
the public charge and the performance
Of the duties Of citizenship, it will
shield him and his property? And if
any number of the citizens of a state.
disregarding the law, destroy the prop
erty of another citizen, or, assuming
the functions Of the courts, execute what
the mob may deem justice upon him.
why should the state not be response
BILE, and why should 1t not make the
subdivision of the state where the act
was committed respond in damages
for it2
However this may be, the action
taken and to be taken will have re-
pressive effect on the passions of South

FUNDS FOR IMMIGRATION.
South Dakota,s Association Enthu-
sfasticaIIy ut Work.

SIOUX FALLS, S. D., Jan. 2S.-Col
Thomas H. Brown, who returned last
night from the meeting of the execu-
i've committee Of the South Dakota I'm
migration association, says the COM
mittee Is going to work enthusiastical-
ly to advertise the state. 1t will in a
few days issue an address to the peo-
pie giving in detail the plans of the
committee and making an appeal for
funds. The committee will make
requfsition on the several
counties of $50 for each 81 ,OOO,-
900 assessment, which will produce a
fund of $4,000. Nonresident real estate
holders will be asked to contribute 81
for each quarter section owned.
One of the most important results
Of the meeting was the decision to issue
a map, separating the state into four
great divisions, the Black hills, the
grazing section, the artesian basin and
the Sioux valley. The committee will
meet again in Sioux Falls, Feb. IL.
The platform adopted by the Sioux
Falls commercial club as instructions
to its delegates has been adopted by
the committee as its platform.

price Of 81 to 80 cents. and two pounds
dockage. Still later, when the power
of the elevator combine was at its
highest, he could get no better grade
than No. 3. After the blockade was
broken, and there was an open market,
his wheat again graded No. hard.
Between the extremes Of the conditions
presented to him by the elevator COM
panies with whom he had to deal there
was a difference of ten cents per bushel
on the wheat harvested from the same
field at the same time and having pre-
cisely the same market value.
Most Of the cases cited are those of
men owning large tracts of land, and
having large amounts Of wheat to dis
pose of. They have a remedy. They
are able to wait. They can ship direct,
because they can market their grain
in carload lots. They can sell In the
terminal markets by sample. But the
man who has not been heard from is
the small farmer. He Is the victim. He
has not carload to ship. He is wholly
at the mercy Of the elevator combine.
When he offers his grain for sale, he
can take what he can get for it with
all the infamous reductions that are
shown in our correspondents letter, or
he can haul it back home, only to re-
ceive the same proposition later on.The
small farmer of the Northwest is the
prey Of the elevator men. 1t is little
wonder that the outrages perpetrated
upon him have dwarfed in his mind
all other issues, and have made him
ready to join any party and to resort
to any measures that will release him
from the cruel impositions of which
he is now the victim.
We do not believe that the people Of
this state are aware of the infamies
that are practiced by the elevator COM
bine. Never was there any issue in
the history Of our public policy that
could compare with the demand for a
free and open market for the farmers
product. The denial of it is the cankar
at the heart Of the prosperity of the
Northwest. 1t is not the inclemency of
the seasons,it is not any failing qualities
Of soil or climate, it Is not discrimina-
ton in freight rates, it is not the money
question, that is eating the life out of
the farmer Of Minnesota, keeping him
poor in spite of his most strenuous
labor, reducing him to the condition
Of a vassal bound In endless thraldom
to an unfeeling lord, so much as it is
the control of the market by elevator
companies who make the exigencies of
the farmer their opportunity, and wrest
their unearned millions from the tillers
Of the soil. The G O b e is not through
with its investigation yet. 1t has
scarcely begun. 1t has published
enough already to convince any honest
man that the farmers Of this country
have such a grievance as exists no
where else, and that the Northwest
can never know comfort, prosperity
and the content that goes hand in hand
with justice, until these infamies are
made impossible, and there is secured
to the farmer the results Of his honest
toll that are now appropriated by those
who have no title to them except the
strong hand Of relentless power.

ern communities; and disposition to
let the law, instead Of Judge Lynch,
execute the DEGREES Of Justice will be
cultivated. It is difficult here in the
North to understand the conditions out
Of which most Of these 1ynchings occur;
and, probably, were the conditions here
the same, the record would be Identical.
But this is neither excuse nor justif-
cation, and it will be better for the
South In the long run, better In a ma
terial as well as moral way, when
courts, not mobs, try and convict and
execute.

NEW READING ROOM.
sf. Andrews brotherhood Has One

The members of st. Philips Chapter,
Brotherhood of st. Andrews, gave an
enjoyable entertainment at their hall,
463 Rice street, last evening, at which.
in addition to an excellent musical and
literary programme, Frederick i. Nc
Chez delivered an interesting address
upon "The Old Things" The proceeds
of the entertainment were to be devot-
ed to the furnishing Of reading room
which st. Philips chapter purposes to
open in their present quarters, and APP
plying his subject to the proposed plan
of operating the reading room, namely,
to simply have a congenial place for the
young men to congregate, without
cards, pool tables, billiards or other al
Turing forms OF amusement. Mr.. Nc
Ghee said that the old things were
the best. All great achievements had
their origin in old methods, no matter
how pleasing or enticing was their new
aspect Young men anxious to improve
themselves should study characters Of
great men of the past. When great
movements were contemplated, the past
was always searched for methods with
which to carry them to a successful
issue.
