Tho plastering has been pronounced good
and holds to the laths tightly and all the
painters who have examined the walls and
ceilings report them in good condition to
paint and have no fear of the plaster fall.

some five years ago and tho building since
has been painted outside at II cost Of somo-
thing less than $500 There has been no

Let All Persons Do Right.

We have had occasion to complain at
different times Of the lynching Of persons
charged with outrages Of various kinds in
the Southern States. Men should learn
to rely on the law for protection rather
than cOuntenance or encourage violence
In oondeinning tho summary punishment
OF offenders, however, ii would be we'll to
remember the provocation which led to
the act. II there had been no crime COM
mttted, there would have BEEN no OCCASION
for punishment. II all mon were law
abiding, there would DO no danger OF any
one being summarily disposed of. Nen
guilty of rape, arson or murder, have no
occasion to complain Of the violence of the
relatives and friends Of the sufferers from
such crimes, as they have no right to ex-
do wrong know fully the consequence and
cannot complain when summarily pun
lshed. 1t Is easy for parties not aggrieved
TO say the law should be allowed to take
lts course, but relatives and immediate
friends of the sufferers are not quite SO
ytoical. They become desperate and they
cannot be blamed for administering speedy
punishment. Tho pcrpetrator Of tho dast-
Ardly crimo knows well the consequence s
thereof and justly forfeits all right to
complain Of what may follow. II the
commission Of crime was stopped, then
lynching would also stop, Greater effort
should therefore be made to make men Of
all classes wiser and better, so thcre will
be no occasion to complain Of the violence
Of any portion Of the community The
citizens Of our State are law abiding, but
perhaps they are not more 50 than the citi-
Gems of Maryland or Virginia and tho per-
petration of gross crimes would DO very
likely to lead to the same ebuliution Of
feeling and the same manifestation Of
violence. Let the vicious beware! "Thoso
who SOW to the wind reap tho whirlwind."

There is rumor afoas in official cir

is nothing less than that this government
is about to make overtures to Spain for
the purchase of Cuba. However this may
be, it has long been known TO the world

patton, malaria, dyspepsia, rheumatism,

and corresponding dose before retiring
contributes to sound repose. No medi-
cinal stimulant on the market ever re-
ceived such strong professional indorse-

it. Not only in this country, but in many
