MOB RULE OR THE LAW.
Gov. Durbin Of Indiana Discusses Re
cent Lynch1ngs.

COAt Ay AASAAAAAE3S'
In an article in this weeks Independent
written by Gov Winfield T. Durbin of In
diana, that official says:
1t Is a dangerous thing to possess free in
situations without knowing the cost at
which they have been attained or realizing
that eternal vigilance is the price of their
maintenance. The machinery of monarchi-
cal government Is everywhere apparent:
the pomp Of courts, the, pageantry Of fleets
and armies the strong arm Of authority
relentlessy lifted to make respect for the
law compulsory wherever 1t is not vOlun-
tary. But to the people of our republic the
semblance of national, -ahthority-the au-
thority which stands back OF the elemental
guarantees Of our government-is not a fa-
sight Of soldier Is a rare one. The ma
chinery Of our government moves noise
lessly: 1t Is in effect Invisible. Those in
authority are citizens among citizens.
A government such as this realizes the
ideals of the founders Of the republic and
the aspirations of those who believe that an
"inalienable right Of man Is the broadcast
liberty consistent with the rights Of others,
that with this essential qualification the
least government Is the best government.
And yet 1t Is easy to understand how 1t Is
that under such conditions the patriotism
of a generation which has received free
institutions as an inheritance, which has
neither won them nor defended them, and
looks infrequently upon the things that

such as that in which we life

erty, every well wisher of his posterity
swear by the blood of the revolution never
10 violate in the least particular the laws
or his country and never to tolerate their
violation by others. AS the patriots OF
seventy-six did to the support of the Dec
laration of Independence, so to the support
OF the constitution. and the laws let every
American pledge his life. his property and
his sacred honor: let every man remember
tnat TO violate the law is to trampie on the
blood of his father and to tear the charter
or MS own and his children's liberty. Let
reverence for the laws be breathed by every
american mother to the lsping babe that
prattles on her lap. Let 1t be taught in
schools. In seminaries and in colleges. Let
almanacs. Let 1t be preached from the
pulpit, proclaimed in legislative halls and
enforced in courts of Justice. And. in short
let 1t become the political religion OF the
nation"

hand in the rise of a mob spirit utterly
without palliation in country where all
laws are popular creations and where all
officials exercising administrative and ju-
dicial functions are made and may be I'M
made at the ballot box.
The method Of extenuation adopted by q
few public and many private apologtsts for
lynch law have become familiar. The awful
ness Of the crime and the outraged sense OF
justice 1t arouses are pictured in palliation.
But the essential issue raised by tho riot
ers is not between the mob and Its victim
or his crime. but between the mob and the
law. The law is as much outraged by a
lynching based on a heinous crime as by
lynching without provocation.
There are instances without number In
which the mob spirit. once aroused, has led
to the pursuit of objects entirely foreign to
that which brought it into being. The
sweep Of the mob spirit through q commune
ity is like the rush Of water through a sew

nation Of officials in the execution OF the
laws is often assigned as an explanation, II
not in palliation, Of the mob spirit. BY
whom are judicial and executive officers
chosen7 BY whom were the delays of the
law deliberately decreed? They are in large
part the safeguards reared by the people
themselves for their own protection against
summary procedure. What member Of an
American mob charged with crime would
look upon these safeguards otherwise than
as essential accomplishments Of free gov
eminent?
Let us place against these apologies for

A SAD. DISASTER.
Dig Csn ON Battleshlp Iowa ExploAes,
killing Three Men ana
Woundtag Five.

Pensacola, Fla, April 10.-A disas-
trous explosion occurred ON the bat
tleship Iowa Thursday, while the YES
sci was at the target practice in the
gulf. The forward port Pinch gun
burst from premature explosion of
shell, l2 feet of the piece outside the
turret being demolished. Three men
were killed and five injured, two seri-
ously.
The killed are: First Glass Seaman
Kiele, Ordinary Seaman Percell, and
Gunner's Mate Berry.
The injured: First Class-Seaman
Caught, Ordinary Seamen Thursdale,
Brown. Mansdale and Purcker.
The men killed and injured were on
the second or gundeck at mess. Three
pieces of the exploded gun, each weigh
ing over a ton, passed downward
through the spar deck, falling upon the
men at mess, instantly killing the three
named. All of the men were horribly
mutilated. The heavy missiles, after
passing through the gun deck, contin-
ued down to the third deck, where they
the heavy steel bringing them toa stop,
thus saving the engineers and firemen
who were at work below. Although the
upper decks were covered with men,
no one there was seriously injured.
The explosion occurred just as the
mess call had been sounded. Firing
was to have ceased after the shot for
the dinner hour The range had been
set and the Iowa was steaming along
at speed of IL knots an hour, when
Lieut.. Reed, in charge of the forward
1s-inch turret, gave orders to load and
fire. The time fuse was cut for the
range, the piece charged, breech closed
and the word given to fire. Following
the report of the gun, there was a
smothered noise as the shell exploded
midway in the gun, and pieces of the
bursted gun and shell were scattered
broadcast. Three great holes were
torn through the deck.
