Rockville Ind. Tribune: The re-
publican argument on being compelled
to stay in the PHILIPPINES, if logically
pursued, would compel every man to
stay in the wrong when convinced that
he is wrong. 1t would confirm every
fraudulent title and stop every court OF
Justice from giving man his just dues
when defrauded Of them.
In other words, it means that there
is no appeal when stronger power

This is a perfectly natural thing. Take

THE RECENT MURDERS.

In another column this morning we
publish a communication in which at
tention is directed to the growth of
mob spirit in the Ogeechee district of
this county, because so little effort has
been made to arrest and bring to JUS
tice those who committed the recent
murders in that district. The writer
of the communication mentions five
murders and there have been no ar
rests in connection with any of them.
1t is not surprising. Of course, that
there is feeling among the people
Of the Ogechee district that they are
not getting the protection to which
they are entitled.
We do not know what steps, If any,
the county authorities have taken to
cent murders and bring them to JUS
tice, but we have not noticed that they
have offered rewards, or requested the
Governor to offer them. for the appre-
hension and conviction of the murder
ers. 1t does seem as if something more
ou6ht " US uO1e imam Lnefe mas yet
been. The murders are becoming alto
gether too frequent in the Ogeechse
district for the peace of mind of the
residents of that part of the county.
If the murders are not checked they
viii be tempted to leave their homes
and go where they win feel safer.
We do not know, of course, that a
reward would assist in the discovery
of any of the criminals, but no harm
can be done by the offer of a reward.
On the other hand, a reward might be
productive of good results. We have
heard rumor that if a reward were
offered information that would lead to
the arrest and conviction of the muir
derers of Michael Schrenk and his
clerk, j. Carter, would be forthcoming.
The rumor may have no foundation.
but why not make the effort to get
such information? Nothing towards
giving the people of the Ogeechee dis
triet better protection win be accom-
plished unless the county authorities
lead in an effort in that direction.

THE FLOODS,

For several days past considerable
space in our news columns has been
taken up with flood reports. Severe
storms have visited practically the
whole section of the Mississippi and
Ohio valleys from New Orleans to
Cincinnati. Tennessee and Mississippi
seem to have been the worst sufferers
from the waters, though Kentucky.
Alabama and Missouri have suffered to
greater or less extent. So far it is
not possible to estimate the loss of
life, though in all probability the total
will reach pretty nearly if not quite
100. Twenty-Five victims were ac-
counted for in the dispatches of yes
terday, with a number of persons
missing. Whether these latter have
escaped with their lives will not be
known for several days.
The property losses will total mill
lions of dollars. Sc far probably the
greatest damage to property has been
sustained by the railroad companies.
through losses of bridges and en-
bankments and the suspension of traf-
fic. In some sections not only bridges
but roadbeds have been washed away
and all transportation demoralized.
The work of repair, of course, cannot
be undertaken until the waters shall
have subsidized, hence there is still a
period of delay and loss ahead of the
companies.
There can be no doubt that agricul-
tural interests have suffered very
heavily. The floods came just at the
season when planting is fairly under
way. Whatever seeds had been put in
the ground before the rains are lost,
as we'll as the labor of preparing the
lands and the fertilizers used. Under
the most favorable circumstances it
will probably be two weeks before the
work of replanting can be taken up,
and two weeks lost at the opening of
April is quite a serious handicap in
growing a crop. The effects of the
storms, therefore, win be felt for
months to come.
The storms and floods to which we
have direct reference were preceded
only about a week or ten days ago by
similar but somewhat less severe
storms extending from the Georgia
line into Tennessee, Alabama, Missis-
sippi and Louisiana. Some damage
was done by these principally to rail-
road property, but their destructive
ness was not nearly so great as has
been that of the floods of the past few
days. There were several washouts
in this state that stopped traffic tenn
porarily. Georgia, however, has about
recovered from the effects of these
storms. Tennessee, Alabama and Mis-
sissippi have not been so fortunate.
Before they had had time to make re-
pairs following the first series of down
pours, the second and worse series
came on. Whether the heavy precipi-
tation on the Upper Mississippi and it's
tributaries has been sufficient to cause
dangerous high water in the Lower
Mississippi will probably be developed
in few DAVIS
