LAW AND LYNCHINGS.
Gov Ellerbee's Message Dealing With
an Absorbing Question.


Columbia. S. c., Jan. 1O.-The Gen
eral Assembly Of South Carolina con
vened in actual session today. Gov
ernor Ellerbe. in his message, took oc-
casion to refer to the subject of lynch
ing. He says at the outset:
During the last several years there
has been an apparently increasing dis
position among us to attempt the right
ing of real or supposed wrongs by the
law-breaking practice of lynching."
He says il means the abolition of the
regular order of justice, and this is the
first step in the destruction of social or
der.
Concluding, he says the remedy sug-
gests itself, "See to it as conservators of
the peace of the State. as makers of its
laws, as the guardians of its sacred
honor. that its laws are so enacted and
so administered that conviction and pun
ishment shall follow crime with the GER
tainty that links effects to causes. 1t is
possible, it is necessary for the protec-
ton of society and vindication of justice
that a stop be put to those legal bubbles,
those astute technicalities, that vice-en-
couraging dilatoriness in the administra-
ton of justice. which tends not so much
to the protection of individual rights as
TO the subversion of the rights of So
ciety and to utter loss of confidence in
the stability and even in the possibility
of government.
THAT an officer charged with the duty
of holding and cf protecting a prisoner
should suffer him to be seized and snatch
ed from the hands of the representa-
tives of the States power and sovereign
ty should constitute forfeiture in itself
of his office, for it is a confession of in
disposition or of inability to perform the
high duty committed to him. Such Off
GERS Will never correct lawlessness. for
they are either in sympathy with it or
they are afraid of it.
''As an additional measure OF restraint
it would be well, and | recommend that
any county in which the crime Of lynch
heirs of the victim of the lynchers in the
sum of five thousand dollars. and that
men who shall be convicted of participa-
tion in lynching shall be deprived of the
right to vote or hold office in the State"
He dealt with the ever-increasing sub
ject of the dispensary i'll extenso. He
recommends the submission of the ques-
tion of dispensary or prohibition to the
people for a popular vote and letting
each county decide on which it Will
adopt High license as factor in the
vote is omitted. though it was generally
expected. The laws delay is vigorously
handled in what he says about the courts
of the State.

1--WE regard the man whose name our

contest i'm 1900 Events since 1896 have
shown the wisdom of the Chicago CON
vention. The constant growth Of the
money power, the firm clutch it has
taken on the nation, and It's fixed de
termination to fasten upon the people an
absolute control by the banks of the ma
tonal currency is satisfactory evidence
that to-day. as in 1896 the peoples sole
remedy lies in Il return to the money
system under which the nation thrlyed
and prospered--the free coinage under

"The growth of the trusts ana the
daily Capitalization of capital in these
powerful agencies afford abundant proof
of the necessity for early and determined
action to prevent the actual and hope

and aristocracy. For this nation is
drifting rapidly toward condition
when. though free in name. it threatens
to be in fact IN pligarchy, whose chosen
few will hold pre-eminence neither by
right nor birth nor ability, but by the
single power of wealth.
I'm the trying days when war was
first declared, when every true Ameri-
can stood ready to brave all in defense
of the fatherland, the one sign of fear
came from the capitalists, who trembled
lest business relations should be dis
turbed. The one note of discord to mar
the harmony of S0,000.000 freemen
singing in unision the anthem of the
Republic was the hoarse croak of alarm
sounded by Waa street. The dangers
which threaten the stability of the Re
public do not arise from any fault of the
people, but from the selfishness the cor
rupton. the insatiable greed, the lack
of patriotism of those who dominate the
trusts and monopolies."
