I've favor the creation Of single

eQuare miles and that Of the In
dian territory only 3i,0O0 square
miles. The average area OF the
states and territories west OF the

LONGlNO'S SPLENDID EXAMPLE.

The action OF Gov. Longino OF Mis-
siSsippi In declining to interfere with
the course Of the law in several cases
recently has received almost universal
cummendation. And this ~commenda-
ton is well deserved. When men OF
prominence are convicted Of murder
and sentenced TO the gallows COVER
norS are subjected to a peculiarly try
ing ordeal. The appeals and petitions
Of worthy relatives are hard TO resist,
and when a governor ~courteously but
firmly stands out against such a siege
he must be a man OF exceptionally
fine character and true moral courage.
Without any ostentation and with
ready sympathy for the sorrowing
relatives Of the guilty persons, Gov.
Loagino saw his duty clear. The law
had been grossly violated. Indict-
ments had followed. An able and
resolute trial judge, Larkin, presided
over the cases. The jury heard every
thing in extenuation Of the crime that
could be adduced by the alert and re-
sourceful counsel for the accused and
brought in a verdict of guilty. The
Supreme Court reviewed the cases and
found no flaw in the proceedings.
Gov. LOngino was asked to interfere
with the orderly administration Of
justice. though there was not the
slightest iota Of doubt as to the guilt
Of the condemned.
There was no ground on which he
could interfere except that Of SYM
pathy for the relatives Of Lauderdale
and Cooke. The governor made it
plain in his gently resolute way that
he did not consider this a legitimate
ground for interference. He set the
example to Southern governors es-
pecially Of UNFOLDING the majesty Of
the law in the face of moving appeals
to Longino, the man. We can re.
alize the debt his State owes him
when we suppose for a moment that
he had yielded to the opportunities Of
the friends and kinsmen Of the con-
yicted men. He would have been
condemned for his weakness, for max
ing a farce Of the administration of
the law, for exercising clemency where
clemency was VIGOROUSLY undeserved.
As he denied the application for a
Communication OF sentence, he deserves
the highest popular commentator for
his strength Of purpose, for unfolding |
the dignity Of the law and for deny
ing elemency where it would have
brought about a palpable miscarriage
Of justice. It is to be hoped that the
example Of Gov. Longino will prove
contagious. Commercial Appeal.
