Not only does the dragon symbolic
to the Chinese all that is imposing and

A live dragon would certainly be an
alarming animal to meet on a lonely
road. for a Chinese writer describes II
as having a came's head, a deers
horn. a rabbits eyes. cows ears, a
snakes neck. frogs stomach. carp's
scales and an eagles wings and claws.

beard. I'm the middle Of the latter

FRIDAY, NOV. %. 1900.

Tho crime 70. which Preston Brooks
WINS lynchci was one of the mos, diapoli-
cal ever committed in Colorado. The
negro boy certainly deserved to suffer
death. Ills was tho crime OF boy who
had inherited evil tendencies. He was
o. an inferior race which has been brn'
tali.cd by generations OF slavery and OPP
preston. Nevertheless there can DO no
cxcus. offered for his ficndish crime. No
one attempts to pailin,c tho o'icnse oil
the negro. ;,n, tho commission oil one
crime does not Justify the commission OF
another. And the latter crime was com
,ni,,cd by 200 men Of average intelligence
and character. which makes II nll the
more ccnsurablc. Had the boy been
hung or sho, no protest would have been
made. IN, burning to death OF n human
being was n revival OF savasry disgrace
ful To Tn, fair name Of Colorado. 1. Is
hoped that the rousing mass meeting Of
Denver Sunday afternoon, which made
sucl, emphatic dcnuncia,itn OF the
Li,non affair. will have some effect in re-
moving the stain from tho state. There
was one feature Of tina, meeting to which
the Denver lailics did no, give deserved
ptominencc. II was this: No sentiment
expressed a, the meeting elected &c
much applause as that denouncing the
Denver dailics for the space devoted I"
the details OF the burning aud tue horFi'
bic pictures given. This strong indic'-
men, of the dailics' coarse scnsa,ionalism
their reports failed TO notice.
