Many papers throughout the state
are making suggestions as to the
means to be adopted for the sup
preston of ]ynchlDg. Among the
plans advocated is the following
from the jackson News:
The News ls,frmly of the opin-
ion that the legislature should di-
vide the state into two districts
and appoint two special judges to
preside. Whenever a murder or
an outrage Is committed in coun.
ty, make it the duty of the sheriff
to notify one of the judges to try
the case. In this way the excuse
for lynch law is removed. Then on
top of this make participation in a
lynching II criminal offeuse. Mobs
In this state are getting entirely
too bold. They 60 after their VIC.
Tins in broad daylight if need be
and make no pretense toward conc
ceallng their identity. 1t used to
be that men were ashamed to be
seen In mobs and wore masks, but
that day has passed and it is rath-
or something to boast about. The
press must not only deDounce lynch.
Ing, but it is likewise its duty to
suggest ways to put check to it.
Fut the condemnation of the law
on the men who compose the mobs

IL the remedy which suggests itself
10 the News as being intensely
practical"
In connection with the above the
iollowing1pIan might also be adopt
ed: Insist that colored prea cheers
shall, at every service, warn their
male hearers of the swift and ters
rlble punishment that Is sure to
follow the commission of the two
most heinous crimes known. For
tho benefit and guidance of the

EXCHANGE FL ASHES.

The sensational papers that are
publishing columns of matter to
show that mere political change
has not brought immediate prose
perity, and that are attacking cap
Ital in every issue, are doing more
to delay better times than all other
agencies combined, says Printers
Ink. Better times depend upon
confidence and the free outflow OF
capital into industry. The sensa-
tional sheet aims to destroy conf
dence, and it so constantly attacks
capital and capitalists that men with
money become shy OF investing it.
And all the time It poses as the
friend of labor, while attacking and
breaking down the very agencies
from which relief from present cons
dltions come.-Newspaperdom.

EVERYDAY DUTI ES,

We are often guilty of under.
rating our every day duties. When

stake and some uncommon work to
be done, we are at once fired into
enthusiasm and we discharge our
duty nobly and generously. But
in the same measure as our am

rious things, we are slow aud neg
ligent in things which require our
constant care and attention. Rev.
