Commercial Tribune.
Startling as was the scene in the
Georgetown Courtroom on Tuesday
night in the trial of Henry Youtsey, it
furnishes no occasion for surprise.
Human endurance has its limitations.
Torture carried to sufficient excess will
break the strongest physical organism
and wreck the best balanced mental
equipment. 1twas in this theory that the
Spanish Inquisition had its existence.
The Kentucky Inquisition is of equal
atrocity. 1t bears similar fruit.
The Court at Georgetown and at
Frankfort, which is the same, is not
Court of justice. 1t is a political tri-
bunal of conviction. Prostituted from
its high province of protecting the in
dividual from the community, rs we'll
as the community from the individual,
it has in no instance involving an in
quiry affecting the rights of the people
versus Goebelism deviated one jot from
pre-judgment to the prejudice of the
people. The same condition has OBJ
tanned in the trial of individuals whom
Goebelism has marked for destruction.
Partisan, from the Judge on the
bench to the lowest petty officer in at
tendance upon the lobby, its fitting in
scription Of welcome to all accused by
this vengeful horde of political pariahs
is "Who enters here leaves hope be-
hind" 1t could not follow in any APP
proach at fair and impartial summon
ing of Jury venire that three panels
could possibly be drawn, each of which
was composed of eleven pronounced
Goebel Democrats and the twelfth man,
of equal political bias, mere masquer-
ade. The laws of chance are all against
it. But the laws of chance were
guarded against with rare caution.
After months of physical and mental
torture, endured in confinement that
has been one continuous inquisition,
human endurance is exhausted.
Badgered by agents of intimidation
and emissaries of corruption, with
home despoiled and family broken,
physical collapse comes in natural
sequence. Weakened and nervous

VICTIM OF INQUISITION.

from these months of torture, Henry
Youtsey is arraigned before Jury
chosen to convict in a Court that makes
palpable and open presumption of his
guilt. Confronted by a profession of
confession that, however false, he Is
powerless, in these prejudiced circum-
stances, to successfully controvert, he
reads his doom. He knows his trial is
a mockery and his conviction predes-
tined. His innocence or his guilt has
nothing to do with the case. He is con-
demned before trial and his trial is a
farce. This knowledge is his torture.
1t is not matter of surprise that his
reason is dethroned and that despair
takes form of frenzy. He protests the
innocence he is hopeless Of establish
ing in this Court of pre-judgment. He
cries out against injustice. 1t is the
helpless wall of a man before Court
sworn to protect every citizen in his
unimpeached innocence turned into an
inquisition for the wreaking of politi-
cal and personal vengefulness.

ALL TOGETHER DEMOCRATS.

We publish elsewhere in today's pa
per ringing address by the Chair
man of the State Democratic Execu-
tive Committee to the voters of North
Carolina, calling on them to work
earnestly from now until the election
for the electoral and Congressional
tickets. Senator Pritchard is quoted
by a correspondent of the Charlotte
Observer as saying that this week
will be devoted to getting the names
of ALL REPUBLICANS IN THE
STATE on the registration books.
Every party worker had been in
structed to vigorously prosecute the
work of registration"
The Republican plan is to conduct
no public campaign in Eastern North
Carolina in the hope that the Demo-
cratic vote will be light, but 'every
party worker has been instructed to
vigorously prosecute the work of reg
istration," and to getting the names
of ALL REPUBLICANS on the reg
istration books. The negro always
votes. The quiet Elan in the East
needs only to be made known and
thoroughly understood to be met. Let
Democrats everywhere be on their
guard against apathy. A full vote
means a crushing defeat of Mckinley
ism and negro postmasters as full
vote in August meant crushing de-
feat of Radicalism and negro State Of
ficials.
All together, Democrats!

A TIMELY APPEAL

We call the special attention of our
readers to a short communication on
the first page of today's paper from
Capt. Thomas w. Mason. He is the
man of all others to preach peace. He
is a patriot who never spoke unllind-
" of others or was ever guilty of UNI
charitableness. To every advocate Of
Carr and Simmons, particularly those
over-zealous partisans who think they
can advance the cause of their friend
by injuring his opponent, we com
mend these words of Capt. Mason:
1--WE cannot afford to quarrel
among ourselves, my fellow Demo
Gratis, or TO speak evil of each other.
The enemy is too near our gates. Sure
Nv we can clothe one of our comrades
with our highest honors without I'M
kindness to another who remains with
us in the ranks. They have all been
true and tried yolxe-fellows. The very
meaning of our primary is that we
NAV choose one of our number calm
Nv, periodically, without heat, and
without the suspicion of sinister in
fluences. Do not let us mistake that
meaning, and thus defeat the very
purpose of this new method OF choice
Let all strife and bitterness cease;
and let us march to victory again un-
der the shadow of our locked shields.

he was completely cured, and his general
health restored.

In Tho Island of Zanzibar Regulated BY

travels spent some mQ0khs in Zanzibar.
In speaking OF his experience there at
the Hoffman House. Mr.. Crawford
said: Zanzibar, you know, Is a small
island on the east coast OF Africa,
about half way between the entrance
to the Gulf OF Alden and Delagoa Bay.

as his face lit up with pleasure. He
