VANCE SETS THE EXAMPLE FOR
ALL TO FOLLOW.
News and Observer.

News and Observer.
Once again the people of Vance
county, under the greatest provoca-
ton, have demonstrated their devo-
ton to law and order.
a few years ago, when a pure young
woman was outraged in that county.
the brute was promptly placed in
Jail, application was made for a spe-
cial term of court, the negro was
given fair and speedy trial, was con-
victed, and legally executed. That
spectacle ought to have been an
example for the emulation of the peo-
pie Of every county in North Caro-
lima.
Once again Vance county has given
an exhibition of devotion to law that
is inspiring to all lovers of law and
order. There have been few more
horrible crimes in the State than the
unprovoked murder of the railroad
man by vicious negroes on the Sea-
board train near Henderson on Tues
day. If lynching is ever excusable
for the crime of murder, this was the
occasion. But the people of Vance
truly believe there is never time
when the people should violate the
law in order to punish criminals.
These murderers have been placed in
Jail and they will be tried at the next
term of Vance court. The evidence
against them is conclusive, the Off
GERS of the law able and lust, and
swift punishment will follow.
Men and brethren everywhere
Emulate the example set by the law
abiding and high-spirited citizens Of
Vance county.
