spectors who were sent out to
watch the workings of the expert
mental trials made under last win
ter's appropriation for the pur-
pose, have made their report to the
post Office department, and though
the full report has not been made
public, it is said to be most favor
able to the plan. The most en-

the satisfaction noted among far

increased use of the mail service.
Preston county recently sent
two men to the penftentiary. One
of them had stolen $500 diamond,
denied it, and was convicted after
a costly trial The other had sto-

and saved the county the expense
of a trial. The diomond thief was
sentenced to two years in the pen,
while the other received for his
horrible crime three years in the
same institution. Preston county

MOB LAW

Governor Atkinson of Georgia pro- poses several measures in his annual message to the legislature of that state, for the suppression of lynch ing. One of these is that, on the ap- pearance of a lynching party, ,he of hcial in charge of a prisoner shall loose his bonds, give him a gun and tell him to fight for his life. This is gt5tting back very close to first prin- ciples and promises, if authorized by the legislature, to produce some very interesting episodes.
 Another suggestion by Governor Atkinson is, in effect, that an official who loses a prisoner by lynching shall be held accountable in the sama degree as if he had allowed him to es- cape; this, of course, unless it can be shown that the officer fought to the last to protect his prisoner.
 But none of these expedients go to the root of the matter; they are no more remedial at the best and apply to only single class. The recent wholesale lynching in Indiana, for i'm stance, had for it's victims men who had mot bsen arrested, but who were hunted down and killed merely on suspicion. The trouble lies deeper
 Governor Atkinson seems to reach the essence of the matter when he says that lynching will be stopped "when hpt ola or,H xx-1,r law, progressively condemn and deter mine to suppress the practice" It is in fact, only by education of the pub lie in respect for law and order that this form of barbarism can be elimi- mated. And this is slow process; it cannot be effected by special act ot legislation.

KILLED MURDERER ROHAN

Chicago, Nov. 5.-A duel was fought this evening between Detective How ard of the city police force and Skip py" Rohan, a murderer and fugitive from justice. Rohan's description was telegraphed here from St. Louis, where he was wanted for killing a man, and the police have been on the lookout for him. Detective Howard ran across the man at Center avenue and Harrison street and attempted to arrest him. He resisted, and, drawing two revolvers, took refuge behind a large box. From this po- sition he opened fire upon the officer, and nearly thirty shots were fired, of which Rohan fired twenty. He was finally stopped by bullet from the policeman's revolver, which pierced his heart. He died instantly. How ard was not hurt seriously, although slightly wounded in two places.
