THE LYNCHING EVIL.

Concord Standard
1t hardly needs saying that every good
citizen of the State wishes to, aid Gov
ernor Aycock, in suppressing lynchings
Lynchng is deplorable almost to the de-
gree of the crimes that usually lead to
it.. Too often it is the men wanting in
integrity themselves who are most con-
spicuous in working up a mob. This fact
makes good men, who under great provo
cation would feel entirely justifiable in
engaging in it, either refrain or act with
reservation. Lynching is so demon
alizing, too, that iustitiable instance
1--WE conceive that there are such) is
always followed by disposition to lynch
where guilt even is doubtful. These con-
siderations seem to dismiss all considera-
lions of excuse or justificat ton. But when
we reflect on two instances we see an
other side. The one is that in Cabarrus
in May, 1899, and the other is the fol-
lowing related by the Raleigh CORE
spondent to the Charlotte Observer:
mot long after the war, in Jones coun-
ty, few negroes went to the house of a
white farmer. found him in the field
ploughing, took the plough lines and tied
himself, took the farmer to his yard,
hanged him by the thumbs, went in the
house and brought out his two little
children, beat out their brains against
trees, outraged his wife before his eyes
and then killed her and him.
The correspondent further says:
This led to a ku-klux organization
at once and to the killing not only of
these devils, but of scores of other
blacks; in fact, it is said of more than
l00, many utterly innocent. The great
crimes simply set people Wild
We trust that under similar circum-
stances the governor does not mean to
offer the $500. There is a limit to human
endurance and in his eloquent language

water"
There is with this tendency to excess
in the public mind a conservative force
that is largely a safety value. For in
stance. A reckless element for a while
seemed dangerous in Cabarrus, and there
was threatening mob before the jail on
one or two occasions after that taste of
blood in 80, but they were met by a
by persuasion and physical strength, to-
gether with police manpulations dis
persed them, and they learned that the
time had come when names would be
taken down and presented to the grand
jury if the wild extremes did not stop.
We believe the good people of the State
will hold IN the hands of the Governor
in suppressing this terrible evil. but
great excuses of crime will meet the
inevitable fate and in such instances it
would seem best not to press the matter

BRIBERY AND PERJURY.

The president of the Iowa Bar Associa-
tion. in his annual address. drew the
severest indictment of his State that
could have been drawn. He says that
bribery and perjury are common, and
gives this testimony:
lone judge of long experience upon the
bench writes me that in his opinion about
one-half of all the evidence received on
behalf of the defense in criminal cases
is false.
another judge of equally high repute
writes that he believes IS per cent Of the
evidence offered in divorce cases ap-
proaches deliberate perjury.
'Another writes that perjury is COM
mitted in a majority of important law
suits, and that the crime is rapidly in
creasng.
I'm short, with reference to the prev
alence of perjury, the time has come
when, in the words of another, justice
must wear a veil. not, that she may be
impartial, but that she may hide her
face from shame. Some tell us that the
crime is committed mostly in the police
and petty courts, where as a rule the
witnesses belong to the vicious classes.
But the fact remains that it is committed
in other courts and by men processing
high station in society, church and State.
While there is no doubt too much per-
jury committed in North Carolina, we are
glad to believe that it is not common, as
in Iowa. and that there is strong
healthy public sentiment that frowns
. down upon it. Recently, when law agent
of the Southern Railway slept with a
juror while case was pending, it Great
ed State wide Indignation, so healthy is
(, public sentiment in North Carolina. Jur-
ors as rule, are honest and discrimjnat-
Ting in North Carolina, and if a perjurer
is not afterwards indicted for perjury,
the, juror is smart enough to detect the
false testimony.

TO COLLECT SOUTHERN BONDS.

The New York Times says that the
North American Trust Company has de-
cided to make an effort to collect or COM
promise the bonds issued by the Southern
States during the reconstruction period,
and since repudiated in whole or in part
by those States. In their circular letter
they says: eve believe that individual
efforts will always prove futile, and at
the solicitation of large holdings of these
bonds we have consented to make the eff
fort to collect or compromise same, with
the full belief that in a united way sat
isfactory results may be had. AS soon
as sufficient bonds have been deposited
to justify such action, propositions to set
tie on an equitable basis will be made,
to be followed by other steps if neces-
sary, which under the advice of our at
torneys promise good results
AS to North Carolina this statement is
made:
''In North Carolina S11 1866. 900 of spe-
cial tax bonds were issued in 1896 and
the same Legislature later prohibited the
payment of interest thereon. In May,
1879, with debt of s25, 531, 53S, the Leg
islature directed payment of 40 per cents
on the dollar for bonds issued before
1861, 25 cents on the dollar for bonds of
1865 to 1867, and 10 cents on those of 1866
and 1861
