LYNCHING AND THE CRIME.
Hillshoro Observer

Governor Aycock---or President Nc
Kinley, for that matter-will never stop
lynching in North Carolina as long as the
crimes which call for lynching are per-
petrated. Lynchng is deplored by all
good people, but the crimes that cause it
are damnable.

On some occasions, too, Of public mourn
ing there Is an apparent failure to under
stand orders, and the flag is often half
masted on one building for a longer period
than on its neighbor. Now that the flag
is in use to a greater extent than ever be-
fore, citizens in very large numbers dis
playing It constantly on their places Of
business. and even on their residences. it
behooves the government to set q good
example in point of the respect with which
the banner is treated. 1t should always
display flags which, If not absolutely fresh
in color, are at least whole. The sentiment
attaching to the tattered flag does not ex-
tend to the effects of the weather and neg
lect. No head will ever be barred out of re-
spect for banner which has been per-
mitted to lash itself to rags because some
janitor's assistant has forgotten to haul it

Gov Mcsveeney's Sensible Action.

In declining to accept the designations or
Senators Tfllman and McLaurin. Gov. Nc
Sweeney has rendered the people of South
Carolina n sigma service 1t is said he
aspires to a seat In the Senate himself: and
when the proper time arrives IL will be sur
prising if the good judgment he has now
shown does not operate in his favor. Ger
tain it is that his conception of the present
situation is correct. and that the interests
of the state do not demand a heated cam
paign peppered with personalities a year
in advance of the regular order.
Senator Morsan-excellenta authority in all
matters enatoriai-describtd the per-
formance of his South Carolina colleagues
as child's play. 1t was Wy like that. and,
as The Star stated at L.. same time, in
many states IT would il.-;.:ntly have cost
both players the confitt nee of the people.
1t grew out of a taunt in debate and had
justification even in the matter of per-
sOnal pride Mr.. Tillman's bumptiousness
and Mr.. MCiaurins stTsitiVeness were
equally without warrant. Each man was
regularly in the commission of the state
for a stated term. and neither had been
requested by the people to resign In fact,
a Tillmanish effort to pass a resolution
through the South Carolina legislature last
winter requesting Mr. McLaurin TO resign
had failed. So that it was treating an i'm
portant matter far too lightly for the two
senators TO throw their commissions into
the scale in a mere clash of personal
opinions.
Gov. McSweeney gives one reason for
declining to accept the designations the fact
that campaign thus naugurated would be
conducted in the main on personal lines.
That is true. but so. for that matter will
be the campaign of next year. This weeks
discussion of the situation in South Caro-
lima shows that no other sort of campaign
is possible in the state. A quarter of CEN
tury of mere personal contention. with but
one party in existence and national issues
ruled out, has prod ced condition of af-
fairs where sustaining the machine is the
only proposition the ringsters will tolerate.
Mr. Tillman shoulders his way to the stand
where Mr. McLaurin is speaking and calls
for his resignation on the score that Nc
1hurtn has dared to vote against his Till
mans. views in the Senate Il am the peo-
pie" shouts Mr.. TflIman. in effect
Still sufficient unto the day is the per-
sonal assertions thereof. Next year is the
time appointed for the contest In South
Carolina. and next year is soon enough
Gov. McSweeney. therefore, should stand
his ground and force both senator's back
into their proper places. to remain there
until the bell rings for the regular bout and
everybody is ready.

Major Sylvester's election as president of
the police chiefs association yesterday in
New York is a source of much qualification
to the people of Washington. who know
how worthy he Is of such an honor The
circumstances under which the choice was
effected double the compliment Major
Sylvester was selected for the position for
his personal qualities, which have made
him markedly popular among his colleagues
during the comparatively brief period of
his chiefsh1p, and Furthermore because Of
his position at the national capital It Is
desired by the police chiefs to secure fed
eral legislation along the line of interstate
police co-operatiOn and it is shrewdly con-
ceived that by placing the highest author
ity In the representative organization in
the hands Of a man SO favorably known to
members of the national Congress much
will be gained toward success. Major Syl-
vester is himself an advocate of the plan
OF establishing federal police bureau Of
Identification. to facilitate detective and
cr1me-prevention work throughout the
country, scheme which appeals more and
more strongly for adoption from year to
year This election is compliment to the
police force of the District which has long
been recognized by experts as one of the
most efficient in the country, despite the
inadequacy of its numbers.
