That Golden Game.

There is considerable comment Pre-
and con anent the game between the
university foot ball team and Golden. Il
is understood that Golden will not pla,
the game if Boulder insists on playing
Bob Scbaefer. The Boulder boys on the
other hand insist that the game of bunco
perpetrated by Golden will not stick and
say they will play Schaeffer notwith
standing the protests.
In speaking with some of the promi-
nent Boulder hackers of the Varsity this
morning, it developed that Boulder peo-
pie are opposed to the university running
any risks of raising big row, with the
danger of losing the game. Better &C
cept defeat, they say, than allow the re-
port to 60 forth that Boulder is afraid.
But the removal of Schae ffer, while it
would weaken any team, will not neces-
sarily mean defeat at Golden's hands,
and it is the general opinion that the
Boulder boys, as long as they allowed
the rule to 70 unprotected last spring,
might as well accept the inevitable now.

The Indiana Lynehlng.

The lynchlng Of five thieves In Indiana
Is disgrace to that state, 1t Is true that
the victims of the mob had been commit
ting some depredatlons, or there was
reason to suppose that they were mem
bers OF a band of robbers which had
been guilty of burglaries and highway
robberies, but they were In the hands or
the law. Their crime was not one which
Is punishable by death IN any civilized
country The presumption was that the
law would deal out Justice to them, as
the evidence against them was conclu-
slye. Yet a mob of the best citizens"
attacks the jail, and, after infllcting fatal
wounds upon three of the men, all five
are dragged to a tree and hanged, the
three wounded men being dead before
the tree was reached.
All this occurs In an enlightened COM
munity In Indiana, the citizens of the
town endorsing the action Of the mob.
There Is a saving credit to the good name
of the great state that Its governor has
directed that all the power OF the civil
authorities be commanded to bring to
Justice the good citizens" who perpe-
trated this act of lawlessness, In defiance
of the laws Of the state and the country,
which guarantee that every man accused
of crime shall have fair trial, and
which provide means for the punish
ment of criminals.
In view of the nature Of the, offense
the prisoners are charged with (the at
tempted robbery OF store), the mem
bers of the mob of citizens who particle
parted in the hanging were each and
every one guilty Of murder. One can
understand how citizens, Infatuated by a
crime Of fiendlsh nature, can have
some excuse for visiting quick and fatal
punishment upon the perpetrators OF the
deed, but this Indiana mob had no such
incentive.
No lynchlng ever occurred In this coun-
try with less excuse, or which has cast
greater disgrace upon the community in
which 1t occurred, than this murder of
men who were charged with no more
serious offense than an attempted rob-
berry a.
When mob law amends the criminal
code and makes burglary a capital Of
tense, for which accused men are to be
hanged without trial. 1t is time to call
halt. When such disregard for law
and order is shown by the members of a
community in one of the most enlighten-
ed states in the Union, it is indeed time
for the chief executive officer of the
commonwealth to move for a wholesale
prosecution OF the responsible parties IN
vindlcation of good order and the majes-
ty OF the law.

The Inauguration Of ex-Postmaster
General William L. Wilson as president
of the Washington and Lee University.
which occurred Wednesday at Lexing-
ton, Va, takes from West Virginia one
of her most distinguished citizens, and
from political life distinguished leader.
During his political career Mr.. Wilson
alienated large number of his political
associates of his own party, and in this
respect was peculiarly unfortunate on
two occasions. Mr.. Wilson, all admit, Is
a courageous man, however we may dis
agree with him In his economic theories,
and tn this courage was due the fact that
twice, Immediately preceding his retire
ment from political life to devote himself
to educational work, for which he Is bet
Ger fitted, he lost the support of leading
men OF the party which had previously
delighted to honor him.
First, in 1894, his connection with the
tariff legislation which proved SO dlsas-
trous to the country, and his own we'll
known extreme free trade views. lost
him the political friendship Of a very
large number OF Democrats, who were
interested in the Industries of West Viz
ginla, and resulted in his Overwhelming
defeat for reelection to Congress. Even
after defeat, however. he retained the re-
spect and even the love- OF the masses of
his party in the state and the country.
because the great majority believed
faithfully In tis tariff policy, notwith-
standing Its failure to accomplish the
things promised Tor It. To his own credit
be II said that he went down with his
colors flying, applauded by his admirers
for his loyalty to his cause.
On the second occasion, in 1896 the per-
sonal and political courage of Mr.. Wilson
received a much more severe test. After
the capture of the party organization by
the new school Of financial theorists, and
the complete surrender NJ the great mass
of the party, including the organization
in the state which had heaped honors
on him, he had the courage to repudlate
that abJoct betrayal OF the tlmo-honored
principles OF Democracy, and In the face
of an overwhelming opposition In tho
