Some Lynchine Figures.

Judge Lynch has been asked to do a
great deal of work this year and III
victims have been tried in his court
and given the inevitable sentence Of
death. But IS of these We're in the
North, and all of those hanged in the
North were men. In the South 103
have been lymched within the year, 81
of them being negroes. and seven of
those were women. The record is as
follows: Alaska five, Arkansas II,
Mississippi u, South Carolina 15 In
dian Territory three. Illinois one, Kan
sas l, Georgia nine, New Mexico one.
Missouri seven, Alabama II, Kentucky
FIVE, North Carolina four. Louisiana
eight, Tennessee six, Texas three, Vir-
ginia four Maryland two, West Vir-
giria one, Washington one, Wyoming
three, Oklahoma one. and Florida one.
The record is probably far from COM
pIete, for there have undoubtedly been
many lynchings in Alaska since the
Klondike craze that will never be heard
of. but even as it stands the spectacle
is horrifying. Law and courts are few
and far between in the Klondike and in
Alaska, but in all other parts of our
country there are courts and means
of legally furnishing wrong doors whose
guilt can be proven
Once in a great While, when the
furnishes the only way for melting out
justice. but we venture to say that out
of those 121 lynchngs in the United
States this year in no case was it nee
essary for the people to take the law
into their own hands in order to ad-
minister justice. Lynching is ON the
increase each year and old Judge
Lynch is becoming altogether too pop
ular. How many of those 121 men do
you suppose We're innocent? Governor
Atkinson of Georgia, recently appealed
to the Legislature of that state for
stringent laws that would put stop 10
,lynching, and he cited a half dozen in
stances in which the men hanged Were
innocent. He said in part 10
the Legislature: Both capital and
worthy Immigrants seek places where
law is supreme. and the frequent &C.
currences of lynching will advertise
ours as lawless state and half
civilized people. 1t sacrifices the inno-
cent, brings law into di5repute, creates
lawlessness, impedes material growth,
and in the eyes of all the world lowers
the standard of our civilization and
degrades the character of the people.
This baTbarous practice does not de-
crease, but increases, crime. Having
stained their hands in blood, its per-
petrators are more easily led again TO
violate the law. Recently a man tried
and convicted ON a charge of murder
confessed also that it was he who tied
the rope around the necks of the two
men who were lynched at Columbus in
1885, / condemn it and viii not apollo
gize for such lawlessness. To eXter-
inmate the practice it must he made
odious and dangerous. The penalty
should be the scorn of the people and
the punishment of law"

The Monitors at Manila.

The letter from Secretary Long Of
the navy department, to Captain Whit
ing of the monitor -Monadnock, prais-
ing the officers and crew of that vessel
for the courage, patriotism and ability
shown in taking the monitor to Manila
to reinforce Dewey, brings to public
notice two of the most remarkable
trips ever made by the.Mar vessels Of
any nation-that long journey by the
monitors +Monadnock and Monterey OF
1000 miles to Manila to join Dewey's
fleet. Coming at a time when the air
was full of talk about intervention by
the powers and other disquieting ru-
mors that made it appear as though
our hero Dewey should have little
more support, the voyage of the YES
sells was watched with keen interest
but when they arrived in Manila the
news of the protocol was absorbing
public attention and not until this ilet-
ter was written by. Secretary Long did
the public learn to appreciate what had
been done. =...-.-
The monitors We're desagnedfor coast
and harbor defense. and lit was never
intended that they should be subjected
to the trying conditions off, sea voy-
age, and particularly one: across the
stormy Pacific. When therefore for
eign nations learned that these rive
vessels, with but one foot of freeboard
space between the rolling seas and
the deck-had been ordered to take :
1000 mile voyage, the European papers
styled it as foolhardy and impossible
The vessels were not built to stand
rough seas, and every man who made
the trip showed that Uncle Sam could
| have his life for the asking-the YES
sells simply had to go and when the
members of the crews We're addressed
! warned of the dangers of the trip, told
step to the rear and be given shore
duty, every man in the crews stood fast
