but cabinet member states this mora

MASSILLON MATTERS.
Massillon, Sept. 3.

Massillon, Sept. 8.
A team belonging to Fred. Weis-
garber. who resides north of the city,
ran away Saturday evening and car
ried destruction in their path. The
team was hitched to a stone wagon
and left by the driver tied to q
post in front Of the Stahl meat market
in Canal street. They were tied with a
safety rope. In some manner that is
not known the team was frightened and
tore the rope. They went around the
corner into Charles street and ran west
to Muskingum street. The grocery
wagon of w. ]. Stuhldreher with Carl
Muth in charge was going south on
Muskingum street with a load of groc-
cries. Beside him on the seat, was the
daughter Of George Baatz, who resides
in the Howelps addition. The girl was
going home, and as the grocery wagon
was going in that direction she rode.
The runaway team collided with the
grocery wagon at the street corner and
threw the occupants of the wagon into
the street. The rear wheel was broken
and the groceries were scattered all
over the street The young man was
not seriously hurt. The girl, however,
was picked up anu Carried intO tne
residence Of Albert Winold near by.
She was very badly frightened and was
bruised. DR.. Cans was summoned and
found that she was not seriously in
jured. She was removed to her home
later.
The team went to South street, then
crossed the bridge and ran down Erie
street. Near the cemetery Silas Rohn,
Of Navarro, was driving south in a
buggy belonging to Fred Hess Of this
city. Behind the buggy he lead mule.
He heard the team coming and drove to
the side Of the road.
He got out and tried to stop the
horses. They turned to one side. how
ever, and struck the mule. The animal
was turned over and thrown against
the buggy with such force that a wheel
was broken. The mule scrambled tc
it's feet and was none the worse for the
acrobatic feat Of turning complete
somersault and landing on its head.
The team ran to the residence Of George
Dobson, near the place where the street
car line turns into the asylum, and there
one Of the horses fell. One Of the horses
had leg cut and there was only one
board left on the wagon. The driver
soon came up and took charge Of the
team.

While engaged one of the seltzer bottles
exploded and piece Of the flying glass
struck Daley in the left side Of the
head. Blood flowed freely from the cut
and DIR. Culbertson was summoned.
He found that the temporal artery was
severed. The cut was two inches long
and Daley was weakening from the loss
Of blood when the physician arrived. 1t
required several stitches to close the
wound.

SATURDAY JANUARY, 20, 1900.

Gov. Laurin, of Mississippi, in his
inaugural address, created a sensation
by making a fierce denunciation of
mob violence and deploring the fact
that it is constantly on the increase in
Mississippi, the state ranking second
in the number of lynchings. He said
lat the frequent hangings by mobs
las done much to discourage the in
vestment of foreign capital, as money
is slow to go where life and property
are not sacredly respected by the peo-
pie and protected by the courts and
the state can never hope to attain any
degree of prosperity or grandeur of
statehood so long as public opinion
permits high-handed mobs to treat the
laws with contempt, defy it's courts
and their officers, and murder people
without Justification. AS a remedy.
the governor asks the legislature to
pass a law giving the family of any
person who may be lynched the righz

damages against the county wherein
the lynching occurred. The law
should further provide that the office
of sheriff or constable shall become
ipso facto vacant whenever any pris-
oner is taken from the jail or from the
custody of such officer. The governor
regretted that it seemed to be a
growth of intolerance among the
white people against the Afro-Ameri-
cans. That Gov Laurin is way ahead
of the people of Mississippi is evil
denced by the fact that while all other
parts of his message was greeted with
rounds of applause, that portion reIat-
ing to lynching was received with pro-
found silence, by the 500 people pres
ent. It is bold thing for a governor
of Southern state to denounce lynch
ing, and Gov. Laurin deserves the
thanks of the Afro-Americans of the
country.

Gunner got his training as a chicken

common for white men to blacken
their faces and rob their neighbours

American is lynched. He calls his
