The New York Evening Post, always
delightful when severe. goes for Gov
ernor Black in its best style. 1t SAYS
opinion which Governor Black mani
tests in that part of his message de-
voted to the subject OF civil-service re-
form is only matched by the ignorance
displayed in other sections and the
slovenliness of style which character
ICES the whole paper. 1t declares that
he talks like the ward politician, rather
han the college graduate and member
of the bar, not only when he speaks of
civil service" meaning civil-service
reform, but also, and still more dis
creditably, when he speaks of the
plan known as the university extern
sion," meaning plainly the university
settlement system or college settlement,
as the same system is called in this
country. Evidently, says the Post, he
has only the vaguest idea of what uni
versity or college settlement work
really is, for his definition of it is very
wide of the mark, but as evidently he
does not know what the university
extension system is. or he could not
have made the blunder of confounding
the two things. The truth is hat the
whole document has the p~erfunctory
air of a ~school-boy composition writ
ten because it had To be, and without
any real thought-as, indeed, is almost
confessed in the opening statement
that the message of the governor is a
constitutional requirement, n the
and recommendations herein sub
mitted are in compliance herewith"
Nothing could be more charming than
this; it must even delight Governor
Black himself

Lynching is not quite a national. in

Twenty-six states We're free from it

~lynchings of 1896 occurred in the south.
Louisiana led with %, Alabama had Is,
Tennessee IA. Florida 10, Kentucky and
Georgia 9 each, Texas Z, Mississippi S
and Missouri 5. The average annual
number Of lynchings in the United
States during the last L years was 1877,
and the aggregate was zoos. Though
Louisiana had the most lynchings, the
leading papers of the state declare that
th:s form of punishment neither pre-
vents nor diminishes crime. It is a
matter of local custom and indulgence
of mob passions. and is clearly not an
agency by which justice and civiIiza-
ton can be strengthened.
