The South seems to have reached
point where IL must consider lynching
as Il serious matter. The recent
declarations OF the governors CT
Georgia and Virginia upon he sub
iect Indicate the pass To which mob
vengeance has brought the authorized
legallIusLTumeuts for furnishing crime
and The attitude of leading Southern
Journals is not less instructive. The
SavaTnlh News. Bourbon organ,
finds reason TO inquire whether lynch
ing ever tends 10 reduce the usual
crime" which it Is intended to ayenRe
In fact, the News frankly asserts that
''Lhe evidences go TO show that IL does
not. The fact is, that as the number
of lynchings has Increased, so has the
number Of assaults upon women ln-
creased. So lar from proving a de-
teriment, lynchlng seems actually 10
have stimulated the criminal
spirit. LawlessDess begets lawless-
ness, aud when criminallyO in
clined persons see the law and the
courts Get at defiance by mObs OF lynch
ers, they are embOldened TO defy the
law and the courts rs individuals.
Whatever tends to bring the machin-
cry OF Justice into disrepute tends also
to increase vice aud crime. Lynch
ing, therefore Is not preventive, but
on the other hand, seems rather TO be
attended with an increase In the crime
in question. How can the crime be
stopped? That is "A question requir-
ind deepest study. ln order 20 put
an end TO The crime, the class of per
sons who commit IL must be civilized.
The means 10 that end are manifold.
The leaders of the black race must
lift 10 their fellows, aud teach them
the proprieiies OF life aud respect
for law and order. Meantime, every
thing possible should be done 10 pre-
vent lynching. Mob law will not re-
move the cause which most frequently
leads 10 lynchiDg"
