The La Junta Lynohing.
Editor Herald:

Editor Herald:
The lynchlng at La Junta the other
night of the negro Pullman porter.
supposed to have been guilty of the
most odious crime on the calendar
can find no justification in the minds
of any Of our law-abiding citizens
In the first place the evidence against
the colorcd man was not conclusive
and had II been the case would not
have been altered.
For a few years Colorado's severest
penalty for the crime of murder was
life Imprisonment, Homicides be
came of such frequent occurrence that
in several instances the people toor
the law into their own hands and the
murderers were uucermoniously
strung up. Then large share of the
public. shocked at the idea of lynch
ing in the state, cried give us back
the hanging law and the crime of muir
der will decrease" The law was
again placed ON the statute books.
Did the peoples cry prove true. No.
There have been more murders com
nitted the past year. since the law
was re-enacted than before
When n hen1 in human form COM
mlts the crime charced to the negro
at La Juntl. the people cry Lynch
him, burn him. and thereby set an
example to others who may be In.
clined to do similar acts, and this hor-
rible crime of outrage will cease :"
Does 1t cease. No. Since the negro
at Limon was burned at the stake a
little over a year ago there have oc-
cured three cases of outrage by ne
groes In the state. All three have
been lynched. Three crimes of this
year. More than was ever known
in fve times the length of time be-
fore And every one of these brutes
was reasonably well aware of what
the result of his awful act would be.
But he was not deferred, nor will
others be by fear of being lynched.
In these cases all law and all conse-
quences are forgotten and the brute
nature within them asserts Itself in
It's most henious shape.
We proudly assert that our laws are
supreme. If so they would be respect
ed and allowed to take their course,
and the people should place men in
executive positions who will carry out
these laws when called upon to do so.
How often have we taken to task
the people of the South for this sum
mary punishment of negroes accused
OF the same crime as was this man
at La Junta. No longer can we con
sistently eriticise the Southerners foi
their action in this direction.
The idea is not that this negro did
not deserve death. But the law does
not prescribe death in such cases
and even If it did, the citizens Of any
community have no right to take the
law into their own hands for execu
tion. If our laws are not severe
enough in certain instances. let then
be strengthened and then let tht
proper authorities mete them out
Our laws and their proper administTa
tion are the solid rock upon which ou
government rests.
The La Junta affair was a disgrace
to Colorado JUSTICE.

M.DanleIsl Reoord.


Ed McDaniels, principal in the
rape case, who was found
guilty by jury last night y the
charges filed against him, certainly
furnishes an object lesson to all young
men who may have a desire or are
already following in his footsteps.
The moral of which the following his
tory of his life during the past few
years will plainly show.
McDaniels comes of respectable pa
rents who have for some years resid-
ed at Florence, Colorado, where his
father served several terms as post
master.
AT an early age Ed developed like
ness for horses, and was never SO
well pleased as when astride a bron-
cho, the crazier the beast the better
satisfied was he, and for several years
mule skinner" was the name he
liked best applied to himself. This
life developed fondness for red lik
ker" and the attendant scarlet con-
tingent that goes with the crimson
fluid
He developed hardness with the
"shootin' iron" and was in numerous
scrapes in and about Florence during
which street lamps, window panes
and bric-a-brac in sporting houses suf
fered considerably. All of these me
lees, however, were smoothed over by
his father.
Some six years ago McDaniels was
keeping company with a respectable
young girl of Florence, and as often
happens, it became necessary for him
to marry her. a sweet little boy
was the outcome of the union and af
ter stormy life of a few months, sep
aration followed, and the wife return
ed to her parents roof, where she now
resides with the child.
After the separation McDaniels be
came more reckless and devilmay-
care than ever. One of his favorite
occupations was to get properly loaded
with the stuff that cheers, mount a
broucho and ride up and down iii
front of his wife's home. firing his re
volver right and left and yelling like
n demon.
At that time he had lease on a
coal mine near Florence, and was
plGHl Hteltu WIN liOHSyI dho
Everything went" Later in the
game he imported sporting
woman from somewhere, and as tde
refinement of cruelty to the little
woman who bore his child, would
dress the harlot in the best money
could buy, load her into a carriage
and drive around the block where
his wife lived.
This performance was kept up for
some time, when finally, losing the
lease upon the coal mine, and money
not being so plentiful as of yore, the
town became too torrid for McDaniels,
and he flew to a more congenial
cline.
The past few years have been spent
by him wandering about mining
camps, playing the piano in saloons
and houses of ill-repUte. In addition
to the income derived from such
sources, was added that of fallen
women, of whom he always managed
to have from one to three on the
string at all times.
This last act in his career, which is
but a fitting and natural elimination
of such a life, will doubtless take
him back to reside for a considerable
period within eight or nine miles ol
the home where are his wife and child
but what n. homecoming for them

Beside the Stream.

How silent comes the water round that
bend;
Not the minutest whisper does it send
To the exchanging salows blades of grass
Slowly across the chequered shadows pass
Why, you might read two sonnets ere they
reach
To where the hurrying freshnesses aye
preach
A natural sermon Ger their pebbly beds;
Where swarms of minnows show their little
heads,
Staying their 'wavy bodies 'gainst the
streams,
To taste the luxury of sunny beams
Tempered with GOODNESS. How they ever
WreStle
With their own sweet delight, and ever
nestle
Their silver bellies on the pebbly sand.
II you but Scantily hold out the hand,
That very instant not one will remain;
But turn your eye, and they are there again.
Sometimes goldfinches one by one will drop
From low-hung branches little space they
stop;
But sip, and twitter, with their feathers
sleek;
Then off at once, as in a wanton freak;
Or perhaps, to show their black and golden
wings,
Pausing upon their yellow fiutterings.
John Keats.
