ABOUT LyNcHINCS.

Five brutal assaults upon respectable
| white women We're made by some negroes
at Little Rock, Ark, a day or W ago.
! Thus far the a~ssailants have not been
lynched. Referring to the assaulting of
a woman by negroes, a writer in an east
ern journal thinks there is n aspect of
the question of lynching which should be
presented. He says the north and east
have, from time immemorial, endorsed
the principle underlying the punishment
of the horrible crime of assaults upon
women-ten-fold horrible when !perpe-
trated by negroes upon thef deli-
cately nurtured women usual In the
south, and he may have added upon wo-
men Of any section of the country. y
In about every state in the Union the
fact has been emphasized that when a
ravisher of a woman has been shot by her
natural protector the judge upon the
bench has charged in favor of the
avenger, the jury has acquitted, and
press ana pulpit ITOn MdlHe W leNtS
have applauded and proclaimed well
DONE" There are few negroes in the
north, and the few are generally of a
much higher order of Intelligence than
the many in the south, hence the crimes
of the sort are few. But whether COM
mitted in the north or in the south, public
sentiment runs with the avenger.
1t is true lynch law should never be
escorted to where courts are organized
INC justice is dispensed by them. But no
human institution can be absolutely per-
feet. Perfection is an attribute of God
alone. But the white men of the south,
and, for that matter of the north, will
suffer death before they will tamely de-
liver over their helpless wives and
daughters, their mothers and sisters to
| ravishment and murder. Too often they
! will not wait the slow operation of courts
to accomplish what so many stand ready
to perform. But the assailants of the
white women at Little Rock are not
| lynched. They may never be.

The cause is given. The price of beef
has advanced in the east because Chi
cago meat packers and shippers purpose
driving Australian beef from the English
market and supplying it with the Ameri-
can article. In order to accomplish this
they are shipping vast numbers of Amer
lean carcasses to London and undersell-
ing the Australian product at a loss.
There are beef cattle enough in the
country for all ordinary demands, but the
American market is kept at the mini
mum to fill the English market, and
thus deter Australian shipments. To
compensate themselves for the losses they
sustain to compete with and drive Aus
tralian beef out of the English market,
they run up the price of steaks and chops
in their home markets. In this instance
the Americans loss is the Englishman's
gain.

TIVE n YACHT RACE.

What are yacht races for, anyway? in
quires one. What is horse racing for?
asks another. The proper answer to the
first would probably be. to develop a
boat upon ines which insure the greatest
speed, the presumption being that the
nearer perfect the vessel be the more
speed and safety will be assured. The
same lines would probably be followed
in constructing larger crafts. Therefore,
boat racing is simply a test of speed and
safety lines, by which the bodybuilding
world may be benefited.
The answer to the second inquiry may
be given somewhat as follows: Horse
racing develops, or rather emphasizes,
the speed lines of an animal. The nearer
perfect the animal may be in build and
disposition the greater is his power to
cover distances. This does not apply to
draught horses; they are measured by
quite different lines. But the race or
speedy horses are built upon forms Pc
culiarly their own, cleanliness of limbs,
depth Of chest. or lung power, action and
gameness. When such be found. the
breed is propagated as closely as posi-

lighting it over a smoky lamp or gas let.
The finest tobacco that ever grew doesn't
taste good after you have been eating
onions. Again, you should rinse your
mouth out after a cigar, pipe or cigarette
before lighting another. If you do YOU
will find that every smoke has the soft
fragrance of the early morning cigarette,
instead Of the hot staleness of the last
pipe.

THURSDAY, AUGUST II, 1899.
THE POWERS SILENT.

Some time ago Aguinaldo appealed to
the powers for recognition Of Filipino in
dependence. If that ambitious gentle
man imagined they would tumble over
each other in their haste to recognize his
mobs and their ability to TAXI care of
themselves, protect resident foreigners
and fulfill their international obligations,
he has been sadly mistaken, for the pow
tan mummies. China, alone, has come
the nearest to a recognition, by recosniz-
ing mules as contraband of war.
The simple fact that an act of recogni-
ton Of Filipino independence would give
offense to the United States, with which
they are all on terms of peace has and Will
deter the powers from committing such a
foolish deed. They know that the attitude
of the. United States toward Spain during
the years of Cuban insurrection was scru-
pulously free from any &C: upon their
part. which could give offense to that
power. In fact, this government ven to
great expense and much trouble to pre-
vent the departure Of filibustering and
other unlawful expeditions from our
eminent refused to recognize even the bel
ligerency of the Cubans, though impor-
tuned, not only by them, blu by many of
our WI people who were anxious to en-
brace a popular cause
General Grant laid down the grounds
Upon which recognition may be given or
withheld in a special message to Congress-
which are so pertinent of the case for re-
cognition which Aguinaldo attempts to
make out, that the following passage may
well be quoted:
The question of belligerency is one Of
fact not to be decided by sympathies for
or ~prejudices against either party. The
relations between the parent state and the
insurgents must amount, in fact, to war
in the sense Of international law. Fight
ing, though fierce and protracted, does
not alone constitute war; there must be
military forces acting in accordance with
the rules and customs of war-lags Of
truce, ~cartels, exchange of prisoners, &c.
and to justify a recognition Of belliger-
ency there must be, above all, a de facto
political organization Of the insurgents
sufficient in character and resources to
constitute it, if left to itself, a state
among nations capable Of di~scharging
the duties of a state and of meeting the
just responsibilities it may incur as such
toward other powers in the discharge Of
it's national duties.
No one, not even the most radical of the
anti-imper.alists. socalled, will contend
tina the F%ilipinos can be trusted to fulfill
even the primary duties of a responsible
government, the maintenance of order at
home. Agu.naldo cannot maintain it, for
his following does not represent only a
fraction of the population. The powers
recognize all these facts and patiently
await the accomplishment Of the govern
ment's plan to adjust the conditions at
the Philippines upon peaceful lines. And
Aguinaldo will also wait.

The fact, however, that yacht racing.
as we'll as horse racing, has a pecuniary
or pride-gratifying side to it need not
be denied. In the ensuing international
yacht race there is, doubtless, more pride
than money at stake. Americas cup is
wanted on the other side of the Atlantic.
1t has been held in this country for a
series of years, and though boat after
boat has been sent to beat the defenders
of the cup and bear it way to Great
Britain since August, 1851, at which date
the America won it over a large number
of competitors. it still remains here.
1t was 20 years before ar effort was
made to recover the cup n when de-
feat after defeat followed the attempts
to retake it Great Britain discovered that
Brittania did not rule the wave so far,
at least, as the speed of yachts was con-
ance would not yield, and again another
grand effort was made to win the coveted
trophy. The inventive genius and skill
of the best boat builders was secured
upon both sides to the contest, their out
put being Lord D%unraven's Valkyrie and
the American Defender. The vessels
Joined issue in 1895, and still the cup re-
NAMED in America.
The cup has since been in u~ndisturbed
possession of this country, and would,
probably thus remain for an indefinite
time. if Sir Thomas Upton, the famous
London tea merchant, and, erstwhile, a
poor day laborer in this country, am
nounced thai he would give us another
fight for the bauble. Again the best skill
and the best material were pressed into
service to construct and equip the two
best and fastest boats ever put upon
water.
The Columbia, the American yacht,
represents the latest ideas and devices in
yacht building. 1t is said the gentle
men who supplied the 'sinews of war;"
will be out of pocket at least $3.50, 600 by
the time the vessel will meet the Sham
rock off Sandy Hook.
But little is known of the Shamrock on
this side of the Atlantic. 1t is known,
however, that she was built by England's
cleverest designers, and that neither
pains nor money was spared in her con-
struction. 1t is said the Shamrock bears
a strong resemblance to the Columbia.
If Sir Thomas shall defeat the American
yacht he will certainly be the hero of
the our in Great Britain and all her de-
p~endencies, and his gratified pride will,
doubtless, recompense him for his cash
outlay. If the Shamrock fail to carry
away the cup she will simply pocket her
defeat, as her predecessors did,, and go
home and take her place among the "also
ran But, win or lose. the Shamrock
will be received with a hearty good will,
and as hearty a "g~ood-bye" and wishes
for a safe and prosperous home journey,
at the hands of the American people,
will be given her when she shall de-
part.

CAPT. GODFREY RESIGNS.
40 LONGER PRESIDENT OF l. !.
:. y. Co
Retires From Business on Account of
Impaired Health-Successor to be
Elected shortly.

Captain w. b. Godfrey has rendered
his resignation from the office of presi-
dent of the /. l. 5. n. Company and has
already retired to private life a meet
ing of the company will shortly be held
to elect a successor.
This move was not unexpected. Cap
tain Godfrey's health has not been good
for a long time and he has felt for
a year that his income was sufficient to
justify his retirement from active bust
ness. In a short time he will probably
leave for an extended trip abroad. 1t is
expected that he will retain all of his
moneyed interest in the l. l. 5. n. Com
pany.
1t is premature to say that Vice-Pre-
sident John Ena will succeed to the
presidency. This matter is entirely i'm
the hands of the stockholders. At the
same time 1t is generally conceded that
the offices will be filled by promotion.
Mr. Ena is now in charge of the affairs
of the company as acting president j.
f. Mclean and Norman +. Gedge are
next in line of promotion.
The l. l. S. n. Company is just now
in the most prosperous period of its
history. 1t carries more steamers than
ever before and its dividends are larger
| than they ever have been. The stock is
at healthy premium.

Indications That Proceedings Will
Not BE Taken Against the League.

Not ne [sSAtAS& tne t4etSue.
Thursday, April 6sahas come and gone and
the threatened suit against the National
League by President ;D1eyfus of Louisville
cations it looks as if the courts would not
be called upon to settle the schedule con-
troversy. Messrs. Brush, Hart, Robson
and Wagner have claimed from the first
that the Louisville man had 10 case, and
it would seem that Mr.. Dreyfus. after
reaching home and consulting the clubs
lawyer, Mr.. Zack Phelps, decided to aban-
don the matter entirely. Such a decision
would prove pleasing news to base ball
| fans the country over, as they have
about decided that the magnates have be-
come too prominent of late, and that they
desire to hear more Of the game and play
erS.
AS an indication of how the wind is
blowing down in Louisville and to substan-
tiate the belief that legal proceedings will
not be resOrted to, the following special
from Chicago is given. 1t says:
Barney Dreyfus, who presides over the
destiny Of the Louisville base ball club,
yesterday threw up the sponge, after a
seemingly desperate fight against Presi-
dent Hart of Chicago ct al,
President Hart received a polite letter
yesterday asking If he would consent to the
Chicago club opening the season on Friday,
April H. instead of Saturday, April 10, as
the schedule provides.
Mr. Hart was agreeable to the PROPOSE
ton. The men must be advised, however
so telegram was sent to Manager Burns
authorizing him to offer the men extra pay
II they opened the season April IA.
You see,' said Mr. Hart, "'the Louis
Villes We're to open with Chicago Saturday
skip Sunday and play two games Mon
day. Saturday is always a good day for
outdoor sport, so the Louisville club, by
shifting one of the Monday games forward
to Friday would have good opening on an

ton, permitted changing dates at the OPEN
ing OF the season in such cases. The men s
