sheriff Jenkins Did His Duty.

1t appears that some parties are dis
posed so censure Sheriff Jenkins for
taking the murderer Headrick out of
the county when he was captured.
There was every indication hat an
attempt would have been made to take
the fellow from the officers and hang
him had he been brought here. There
was ever talk of burning him alive.
Under the circumstances. 1t Il the
sheritf's plain duty to do just as he
did. When assuming the Office ne
holds he took oath to uphold the laws
of the state and do his whole duty as
sheriff. To protect prisoners in his
charge until the law has dealt with
them is clearly one of his duties. Had
Sheriff Jenkins brought the man here
and a mob had formed for the purpose
of taking him from the officer by force,
it would have been proper for the
sheriff to summon armed men. if nee
essary, to assist him in protecting the
man from violence at the hands of the
excited crowd. If the mob had proved
determined and the officer and his
posse resOlute, we all see what it
might have led to. As matters stand
nov, the law will doubtless be allowed
to take its course and the murderer
will get the punishment he deserves.
No one will think for Il moment that
the sheriff had any more sympathy for
the criminal than the rest. to prompt
him to thus project him. Cool-head-
ed. right-thinking people certainly APP
prove the sheriff ; action in this mat
ter. In their estimation the circum-
starces presented an excellent oppor-
tunity for Sheriff Jenkins to show the
qualities he possessed as an officer of
the law. He measured fully up to the
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS..
