TIE LOUDOrN LYNcmIN

The blush of shame has again been
brought to the cheeks OF TIN law
abiding citizens of the Old Dominion
Lynch law. relic of Ourlawry. has
again had the right of way and the
blood of an untried and unconvicted
man has been split to satisfy the
blOodthirstineSs of a frenzied mob.
The crime with which the urfortu-
nate negro was charged was sutiici-
ent TO arouse any conn unity TO ac-
ton but in a county like unto good
old Loudoun. where every official is
a heightened gentlemen. there was
not the least hit of necessity for call
ing on Judge Lynch 20 convene his
Court.
Again there sits in the Governor
Chair at Richmond man who i do
ing all in his power TO make Virginia.
what she has a right TO he. one of the
brightest stars in the constellation
OF States. Publicly and privately he
has literally begged his constituents
to honor and obey the law. His ad-
ministration thus far has been one
of the cleanest and best i'm the history
OF the commonwealth. Therefor.
looking at the subject from every
standpoint. there was not the least
semblance of an excuse for this mob
violence.
The accused had been arrested. He
was in prison. He would have r.
ceived a fair trial and if found guilty
would doubtless have been hung.
No one. not even the mob which
has cast this blot upon the state.
had the least doubt about this.
The question naturally arises.
what will be done with those who
committed this rash act?
From the press, We learn that a
number oi those who led in this crime
are known. The act was committed
in broad day light and was witnessed
by hundreds of people.
Will the authorities of this erst-
while good and law abiding county
OF Loudoun permit the guilty TO 20
UNPUBLISHED, or will they arrest them
and bring then to the bar Of Justice?
The peace and dignity OF the COM
monwealth has been assailed. The
guilty should be held To strict nc
count.
