A man may have duties and respon-
sibilities in small town that will oc-
cupy all of his time and perplex exceed
ingly, and yet in larger field may
achieve a very much larger success
and develop a greater capacity than
would have been possible in the limited
field. So the new responsibilities we
now face not only disqualify us to meet
our home problems, but the larger
capacity for administration which they
will develop, the larger view of affairs
which they will accustom us to take
will tit us the better to deal with the

A Dear Lesson.

Denison has had an expensive lesson
In the results of carelessness. There
was dangerous hole in crossing,
citizens and tax payers passed over it
for weeks without reporting it to the
council and street commissioner, one
member Of the street committee passed
over it daily, commented upon it, in
tended to fix it, but made no move un-
til on Thanksgiving night MISS Nc
Carthy fell through the hole, was in
jured, suffered through months OF pain,
and now the city finds that it has a
total Of nearly $25OO to pay on account
Of this criminal carelessness.
There is no use in ordinations and
personal comment. We believe the
council did what its members thought
was right. Had they settled they would
have been blamed, and now that they
have gone to law and been beaten they
are being blamed. 1t was as sure a
case of the devil and the deep sea as
ever confronted council.
Not only has Denison lost financially,
but the animosities and ill feeling
growing out of the suit will last many
years and do us infinitely more harm
than the finincial loss. Let benson
learn one lesson from this case, and
that is that the city is absolutely re-
sponsible for any injury resulting from
an accident occurring from defective
walks, and let every property owner re-
member that he is responsible to the
city for any accident occurring on his
sidewalk. If this lesson is learned,
we'll learned, and remembered. it will
be worth $500 to Denison in the
future.

Southern Savagery.

Since the terrible scene enacted at
Paris, Texas no such crime has been
perpetrated as the fiendish work of a
Sunday mob at Newman, Georgia. The
crime for which the mana negro OF
course-was mutilated and burned at
the stake, was terrible, atrocious. He
deserved death if any bastard ever did.
The lynching might have occurred in
any place north or south-but the hor-
.rible orgies, tho mutilations, the fight
for pieces Of the wretches body are en-
tirely aboriginal with the southern
democrat. We wish to be fair in this
instance. we wish to say emphatically
that lynching for such crime might
have taken place as we'll in Denis0n,
Iowa as in Newman, Georgia. But nc
one can ever make us believe, and in
deed there is no precedent in all the
north, that such utterly fendish orgies
could ever take place on northern soil
In this connection it might be we'll tC
state that in the case Of the Lake City
mob who shot an innocent man and
killed the babe in its mothers arms the
jury disagreed. How the devil must
laugh when he figures on the amount
of southern hospitality he will some
day entertain in his tropic home. Sc
far as we have been able to learn there
are no race distinctions in hell, and the
negro ravisher and the white men who
fought for pieces of his liver shall meet
on the same plane there. AS for the
Lake City wretches, it seems that the
justice on man cannot reach them, that
there is not enough manhood in South
Carolina to secure a conviction for the
atroclous murder, but in that place OF
eternal punishment we believe the ig.
norant. depraved negro murderer and
ravisher will be looked up to by the in.
telligent, educated southern gentleman
4 who murdered Postmaster Baker and
his little babe.
