Mobs and the Mob Spirit.
Nashville "American" CDem.).


The mob spirit thrives through sugges-
ton. 1t is bloodthirsty, unreasonlng and
unreasonable, with savage delight In
defying the law, in the excitement over
an excuse and all opportunity to destroy
life by a method the very horror of which
is capable of such deeds. Lawlessness
feeds on lawlessness. Formerly the mob
was satisfied to hang its victim. When
the Texas mob burned negro it was a
shock to the country. The world regarded
1t with horror. But as crime becomes
familiar its responsiveness grows less. The
first burning of victim by mob suggest
ed the crime to others, and it has been
repeated so often 1t has ceased to be more
shocking to the benumbed public mind
than an ordinary hanging formerly was.
1t has grown to be the common method OF
the mob. 1t will grow more common and
and on smaller provocation until some
more fiendsh and brutalizing method is
resorted 20. Cannibals eat their victims.
We have not arrived at that pont-yet.
The enlightened mind cannot fail to real
lie that such crimes cannot be committed
without injury to those who commit them.
The fire may consume the victim, but the
crime leaves black scars on the living
which do not heal. There is a penalty
for all this which we shall not escape.
The thoughtful must shudder as they
contemplate this downward drift. Where
will it end?

Elijah Breaks Loose Again.

Norfolk Virginian-Pilot, Dem.
Hon. Elijah Dowie Glass is still panied
and unhappy because the Virginian-Pilot
refused to see the resolution of May, 1900,
in the light of his mental reservations. In
Wednesdays issue of his paper, Elijah lib
crates few additional sections of his fish
wife vocabulary and displays the gentle in
stincts he denies to others, by trying to
drag another newspaper, whose editor, as
be says, is gentleman, into controversy
with which the latter has nothing to do.
The Virginian-Pilot will cheerfully con-
cede to Elijah primacy in the use of bill
ingsgate. We haven't either Elijah's taste
or training in this matter, and shall not
enter the contest with him. 1t isn't either
possible, or worth while to reply in news
paper to language that would have cost
Elijah his teeth, if uttered face to face.
As to the merits of the case, the Vir
gilman. Pilot did the Hon. Carter Glass no
injustice whatever. 1t printed an inter-
view with a member of the Resolutions
Committee of the May, 1900, Conven-
ton, in which the member questioned
Hon. Carter GLASS; authorship of the ref.
erendum resolution. Subsequently, the
Virginian. Pilot looked into the matter,
found that Mr.. Glass was not member of
the committee which drew the resolution,
and asked him how he came to be the
author of tie resolution. Mr.. Glass hav-
ing asserted in his speech, accepting the
permanent craftsmanship of the last DEM
ocratic Convention, that he was the author
of the resolution; that he was entitled to
interpret it as meaning what it did not
say, and that any one who differed with
him was an idiot, the question was certain
ly entirely proper. Following his unique
ideas of the proprieties, Mr.. Glass answer
ed the question through another newspa'
per. So soon as the Virginian-Pilot's at
tention was called to the reply, it prompt
ly gave the glst of it-(though it might
very we'll have ignored it)-and stated that
MI. Glass's authorship of the resolution
was fully explained. This much by way
of making it's position clear to the public
Elijah is not at his best when he Is
pained. He is at bis best only when he
"cavorts" on the platform and declares
himself the only prophet and expounder
of Democracy. Then, then only, are the
founts of merriment broken up and Taught

RACIAL INSTINCTS.
Tame Young Mouse That Kills Chick
ems In the Same Manner IN His
wild Brother.

The white rat in comparison with
his wild congener is somewhat less
vigorous and hardy Especially does
not endure cold or hunger so well),
and has sloughed off some of the
timidity and suspiciousness of the
wild rat; on the other hand, his
senses, with the exception of sight,
are as keen, his characteristic rat
traits are as persistent, and his men,
tai adaptability is as considerable.
In view of the many generations OF
luxurious idleness of the white rat,
writes w. S. Small, in the American
Journal of Psychology, this profound
and enduring nature of specific
psychic traits is striking. A per-
tinent illustration was furnished by
a young rat that escaped from his
cage and was loose about the labora-
tory for several days. He had just
been weaned when the accident oc-
CURED. Food was rather scarce and
he got hungry. Finally one morning
he found his way into the chicken
pen, and in less than two minutes
had killed two chickens, and was
upon third when discovered The
chickens were three times as large as
himself. The killing was done by bit
ing through the throat of the victim,
and was as neatly and deftly exc
cuted as if the executioner were an
old hand. The Importance of this IL
lustration lies in the fact that this is
exactly the method of killing EN-
ployed by rats. The only possible
preparation in his experience this
pygmy could have had for such seri-
Gus business must have been in play
with his fellows. That at best, was
of slight Importance, as he had
reached the playing age but few
days before.

FINISHING OF BROADCLOTH.
Various Processes Undergone by the
Goods Before 1t Il Placed
on Sale,

In some mills the goods are buried
and sewed as soon as they come from
the loom, but generally they are first
washed, then buried, sewed, carbon
lied, neutralized, dried, weighed and
measured for the fulling. If goods
containing a large amount of seeds,
burrs, ETC., are fulled before carbon
izing, it is often found necessary to
carbonize a second time, as great
part of the vegetable matter has be-
come so firmly imbedded in the body
of the cloth that the acid cannot easily
reach it. This extra carbonizing is
liable to injure the goods.
Both sulphuric and acetic acid have
been used for many years In fulling.
Sulphuric acid has been mostly en-
ployed for piece dyed goods, felts and
similar fabrics. Acetic acid has found
the most favor for wool dyed cloths,
and sometimes a mixture composed
of half of each kind has been found to
work we'll. The strength of the acid
solutions varies between one and one
half and two per cent.
The goods are first saturated with
the acid solution. Some fnishers full
the goods partially in soap, then wash
them thoroughly and complete the
fulHng process with acid. Alter the
fulling is completed, the goods are
neutralized in the same way as in the
carbonizing process. The cloth is now
extracted, and, in case it is not to be
carbonized before fulling, is sent to
the fulling mill. After fulling the
goods are gigged, dried and cropped.
A double gig is nearly always used
For the finishing part of the process
Doth cylinders are run with the nap.
The amount of the gigging, says n.
Reiser, in the Textile World, depends
upon the fneness of the goods. 1t
should be continued until a smooth,
lustrous surface is obtained. In or
der to set the nap, the goods are
wound, while wet, on rolls, and left
In this condition from IL to "a hours,
or until the greater part of the water
has been drained off; the rolls are oc-
casionally turned end for end during
this time. The goods are now dried,
the nap being brushed down at the
same time. They are next back
,urled, and given five or six runs on
the cropping shear after shearing
they are brushed, hot pressed in
plate press, steamed for quarter OF
an hour and left to cool on rolls. The
goods are next dried and weighed for
the d-einG 2=ccsss-.

Editor Richmond News:

Editor Richmond News:
| am a citizen of Augusta county-a
farmer, a Democrat, and Confederate
soldier, who stood behind the gun. OI
course, am interested in the proceedings
of the Constitutional Convention, and
have read all of its proceedings to this
time, and have been amazed at some Of
the proposed measures, and particularly al
the one proposing to proclaim the docu'
ment, even before the. members of that
body know what it will contain.
Do the members of the convention be
lieve that we are going to submit to any
such action? Have they forgotten the
pledge" of the Norfolk convention, which
solemnly averred that if convention was
held the result should be passed on by the
people? otherwise there would have been
no convention, and, with many Others,
now regret one was ever agreed on.
send you this message to inform you
as to the sentiment of the country people
concerning this procaiming business
which is, that if any such autocratiC
method prevails among the members Of
that body, we will take the necessary
steps in the Valley to have the dividing
line run along the top of the Blue Ridge
and cast in our fortunes with West Virgin
ia. There is in the Valley the best part
of the State of Virginia, and we have long
felt that we are not fairly treated by the
politicians of tie east side, and already
the talk is growing about cutting loose
from old Virginia, with all its history and
traditions, and letting what remains Of
the old State pass such Constitution and
laws as it is suffering for, and we will &c
where we properly belong-to West Vir
GINA.
If Mr.. Wysor will hold up bis end Of
the log, and Judge Harrison the Other
end, Augusta will do her part to accom-
pllsh this muchneeded change, and we
will fad our people of this great Valley
transferred to State which has Con
stitution that we have an opportunity tc
read and study before accepting. Nc
pIoclaimine for us. A. G. T.
