The Spectator discovers in President
Rooseveit's letter to Governor Durhin on
the fabject OF lynchlng a great political
oven: marking a new epoch in the history
OF American law. President Roose-
Welt has another terrible problem before
him. announces this unusually well in
formed English paper. 1t would indeed
be a terrfbl, problem for the President If

to IT'S readers that ''the restoration Of
legal order is impeded by the old question
Of state rights There will be the greatest
difficulty In inducing some States to alter
their laws" They win not, 10 seems, sur

It is something for a state to pos

have been few periods in our history

Judge George Gray is being discussed

we honestly hope to see him the nomi-

There Is something of state pride an

the highest compliment TO our free in

Il Is an unpleasant comment on the
