THE PATRICK LYNCHING.

There have been several conflicting re-
ports as TO whether or not young Walls.
Of Patrick county. was guilty Of tho crime
for which he was lynchcd.
We have carefully reviewed the evidence
in this case before the coroner's jury as
reported in the Patrick County Enter
prise. and it IS purely circumstautal. The
evidence was taken before Walls was
lynchcd
The first witness was r. T.. Fry. who
testified that on Monday before the muir
der Of Sadie Cook he said TO Walls: 'I
hear that you have been accused Of steal
ing" Walls replied that Il was the d-n
Cooks, and II they did not mind they
would come up with their heads cut on.
Tho next witnesses were two physi-
clans. who testified as 20 the character
OF the wounds.
Walter Cook. brother Of the deceased,
testified as to the murder, but knew mo-
thing 10 imDlicate Walls.
Walls was then put upon the stand and
gave a pretty straight story as 20 his
doings on the day of the murder. lie
stoutly denied that he had killed the Girl
or that he had made any threats against
the Cooks.
The next witness was Matilda Epperson,
who testified as follows:
Il went to Mr.. w. e. Crawford's the
next morning after Sadie Cook was as
saulted. She could not speak. 1 took
hold of her hand and told her IL Henry
Walls had treated her thus TO squeeze
my hand: she did squeeze it. L then
took hold % her hand and said to her II
IL was done by a negro, squeeze my hand,
and she did not squeeze Ii. but when 1
repeated the same 10 her as 10 Henry
Walls she again squeezed my hand"
Two other witnesses testified that they
saw Walls at a spring washing his clothes
and this was all the evidence against
him.
such is tho fmsy evidence upon which
this man was condemned to death ana
executed by a mob.

TRUE TO THEIR coNv1crIoNs

Mr. John r. McLean's paper, the Gin
cinnau Enquirer attempts TO ridlcule the
convention of the Sound Money Demo
Gratis Of Ohio. This is but natural. when
1t is remembered that these Democrats
are opposed TO Mr.. Mclean, the free
silver candidate for the United States
Senate.
But the Ohio Democrats cannot be ridi-
culed They stand for the principles of
true Democracy; for sound money: for
tariff for revenue only for the extension
of tho civil service merit system. and
they demand "retronchment OF expenses
and scope Of government. so that there be
left the utmost freedom Of individual ef-
foTt consistent with safety and peace"
There is no step backward from the 20
sition that they took in 1896. and Carlisle's
ringing letter to the convention is the
slogan Of Sound-Money Democracy. not
only in Ohio, but throughout the Union.
Said he:
Those who at the dictation Of their own
enemies discarded their old friends and
attempted 10 revolutlonize the creed Of
their old party, will justly be held respon-
sible for all the results that have here
tofore followed. or shall hereafter follow
their departure from Democratic princi-
pies and traditions. and we who have re-
fused 10 desert the old standard and
cOalescc with the advocates Of fatism. So
cialism protectionism or any other form
OF government paternalism. can well af-
ford to stand whore we are and wait
for the deliyeTance which Is sure 10 come.
On the other hand. we are confronted
by O political organization which Is IN,
parent OF nearly all the victories OF gov
eminent recently adopted and now advo.
Gated by our free silver opponents. The
Republican party Is directly responsible
FOR q system Of taxation which can be
justified only upon the same grounds that
would Justify confscation In any other
form. and It has established and main
tanned @ system Of paternalism which
cannot be logically defended without vim
dicating the justice and propriety OF the
most extravagant demands ever made by
Populists upon the bounty OF the Govern
ment
IL has imposed taxes upon ell for the
benefit OF a few and distributed subsidies
and bountes from the public treasury IN
violation Of the Constitution and without
regard FOR the rights OF the general public.
thereby creating discomfort among the
people and engendering spirit OF re-
sistance and retaliation which constitutes

LIE r1rrsYLvANIA nAnGAIN.

II was mentioned IN our dispatches Of
Sunday. that the Democratic Convention
OF Plttsylvania county had nominated
Populist for the Legislature. We clipped
the following interesting paragraph from
the proceedings Of the convention at
Chatham. as reported ia the Danvile
Registers
Tbe nomination Of Mossrs. Cooke ana
Roach raised tho question as TO whether
| the Populists. If given g showing ID lne
convention, would abide the action OF ihe
convention and support the ticket any
how. The question created great deal
| of animated discussion. No one being
authorized 10 speak for Mr.. Cocko his
name was withdrawn. II was then stated
that the chairman Of the Populist party
would guarantee that that party viii en-
! dorse the Democratic ticket If the POpu-
lists be given two representatives on the
ticket There followed further discussion
and finally Mr.. J. T. Bennett, the Popu-
list county chairman, was invited 10 come
before the convention and say what he
wanted. lie was escorted 90 the stage
and addressed the convention. He said
he was not authorized to bind the Popu-
list party, but ne believed II this conven-
lion gave the Populists two names on tho
ticket they would not nominate another
ticket.
This political bargain must Of necessity
disgust all true Democrats. The dele
gates TO the Chatham Convention were
elected as Democrats. What right had
they, therefore. to put upon the Demo
cratic ticket an avowed Populist, thus
forcing an Democrats either 10 vote for
n Populst nominee. or 20 scratch the
ticket? Why did they not have the same
right TO put a Republican on the ticket?
True Iemocracy IS as much opposed TO
Popuism as # is TO Rcpublicanism
There was "a time I'm Virginia when Dem
ocrats generally did not hesitate 10 say
that they would rather see the Rcpubn-
cans i'm control than tho Popullsts. so
great WAS their aversion 10 Populsts
Now, however. there seems TO be so little
difference between Populsm and Demo
cracy I'm Virginia. that the nomination
Of q Populist for Lieutenant Governor
was seriously considered by the Roanoke
Convention, many delegates voting for the
Populsts man, and in Pitsylvania coun-
ty they have actually put a Populst on
the ticket, under an agreement that the
Populists will not put ticket Of their
own I'm the field.
How can Democrats tolerate such bar
gains as this? Tho Populist leaders
have recently denounced the State organ
ization and the action Of the Roanoke
Convention in tho harshest terms. and
yet the Democratic Convention Of Plttsyl-
vania in order 10 forestan opposition de-
lberately put a Populist on the ticket
and ask Democrats to support him.
is party success a more desirable thing
than party principle? Is there really so
little difference between Virginia Popul-
ism and Virginia Democracy as that it
makes no difference whether the nomi-
nces be Democrats or Popullsts?

This is the case which aroused tho Pop
ullstic press Of North Carolina 70 such
1T Of frenzy that It declared that the sac
red rights Of a sovereign state were being
trampled under foot by n partisan federal
judge. It was never denied that the lease
Of the North Carolina road to the Ola
Dominion and Danvilie Railroad Company
was made IN due form with tho approval
Of the stockholders Of the road, the
state Of North Carolina owning part
OF the stock, and those authorized 70
represent the State being a party TO the
transaction.
It was sought 70 show that Judge ST.
monitor had no jurisdiction, because the
state OF North Carolina was sovereign
power. but Judge simonton very properly
decided that when a State takes stock in
company, II necessarily valves Its SOW
ereign function and must in all respects
be treated as any individual who owns
stock in the corporation.

ton. Judge simonton then said that the
next question 70 be settled was as 20

that no evidence whatever has been pro-
duced to sustain the charge OF fraud

land should protect the rights Of the

THE RIGHTS OF A STATE.

We have on several occasions referred
to the effort that was made by the
North Carolina authorities 10 cancel tho
lease Of the North Carolina railroad 70
the Southern Railway Company. on
petition OF the Southern Railway Com
pany Judge Simonton granted an in
junction preventing the State authorities
from taking further action. and finally
appointed a lawyer Of high standing to
take evidence In the case as TO whether
or not the lease had been fraudulently
obtained. as charged by the state.
Evidence was taken last week and OF
course Governor Russell made a desper-
ate effort to sustain the charge.
The Charlotte On. c. Observer, one Of
the fairest and ablest newspapers in the
State. in discussing that phase OF the
question says:
We have observed attentively the ex-
pressions OF the press, and have heard
with care the expression OF private opin-
ION, and there IS little dissent from the
popular verdict that thus FAR Russell &
Co., have failed miserahly In their effort
to establish fraud IN the lease Of the
North Carolina railroad The question
was asked Of old. When the Master re-
turns will He find faith on the earth?
II It could be shown that the gentlemen
who composed the last board Of direct
ors Of the North Carolina railroad were
guilty OF corruption in the negotiation
by which this lease was effected. We
should know that integrity was no long
