:REV. MR. ELLWooD'S OPINION.
Sorry Lynching Happened but Thinks .a Speedy TriaI Was Needed.

..@ Speedy Trial Was Needed.
 Wilmington, De-, June 23.--Rev. H. A. Ellwood, of the Olivet Presbyterian church, who last Sunday forcefully ex- pressed himself in a sermon appealing to the justices of the supreme court for an immediate trial of White, dictated the following statement to-day:
 q am very sorry it happened as it did. I believe the man should have had legal trial, but I also believe that he should have had a speedy trial The best we can learn from last nights out break is that the people are tired of the details of the law. Certain terrible crimes require stern and speedy pun ishment, and when the machinery of the law is not set in motion the people, impatient of the delay, move them selves. I personally deplore the lynch ing. I believe, however, that if the judges yesterday had announced that they would call a special session of the court and try the man at once the Iynching would have been averted."
 Chief Justice Lore, of the state su- preme court, which had declined to hold the trial until next September, would not make reply to this statement, say ing he would not be in keeping with the courts policy to answer such criti- cisns.
 Justice Pennewill stated that at the proper time, if any person was brought before the court on charge of partic- ipating in the lynching, the could would have something to say.
 Dover Del, June Ex-Governor Hum appeared greatly distressed to-day over the lynching of the negro, White. When pressed for statement he said:

some fancied political advantage.
For two weeks Governor Toole
turned a deaf ear to the thousands
who were asking for a special session
and when he finally gave reluctant
consent to the petitions it was only
upon the assurance that such action
would result in putting to work the
thousands Of idle men whose families
must otherwise suffer.
This despicable attack upon the
governor will have but one result.
1t will cause the News to be classed
by the public where it belongs
with the mud-slinging shysters who
howled that the governor was owned
by Heinze SO long as he refused to
call the extra session.

BENEATH CONTEMPT.

scurrilous article tries to besmirch
the character of Governor Toole by
intimating that he was corruptly in
fiuenced in calling the special ses-
sion of the legislature. 1t is we'll
known fact that the venal and cor
rupt are always ready to impute like
motives to others. and the News is
no exception to the rule.
It requires some courage to openly
charge a public official with corrup-
ton and support the charge with
proofs that are at least reasonably
convincing, and such action is to be
commended. But to charge public
man with such corrupt motives by
mere inuendo and insinuation based
upon nothing more substantial than
the speculations Of a degenerate
mind is the cowardly resort of those
who are willing to biacken the char.

THE POINT OF VIEW.

How self-interest may color our
view of even the most unjust and ar
bitrary action is shown by the num-
Der and variety of reasons offered in
Justification Of our hasty recognition
of the revolutionists of Panama as
the duly constituted government of
the isthmus.
1t Is pointed out that the entire
isthmus was under the control of the
rebels and that not a vestige of the
Colombian government remained. I'm
der such circumstances it is claimed
that prompt recognition of the new
republic was the proper thing. But
why such haste in recognizing the
new power?
The sequel to the whole affair is to
be found in the fact that within
few hours after the recognition of
the new republic by the president of
the United States treaty was signed
giving us the right to construct a ship
canal across the isthmus. These are
the cold facts and no amount of
sophstry can hide the fact that the
right to construct the canal was the
price which we were given for our
protection to the new republic.
1t sounds very we'll to say that
every vestige of Colombian authority
had disappeared from the isthmus,
but it can also be said that every YES
tige OF United States authority had
disappeared from the south within
few days after the firing on Fort
Sumpter, but that fact did not justi-
fly the recognition of the confederacy
by other powers, otherwise the story
Of the great rebellion might have had
a different ending.
When brought down to it's last an
alysis the only fact remaining is that
we needed the isthmus for a canal
site and this was the simplest meth
cd of securing it.
The people Of Florida or any other
state of the union could wipe out
every local vestige of federal au-
thorty in a few hours. but such ac-
ton would not justify the recognition
of such state as separate govern
ment by foreign powers. nor would
they have the right to say 'hands
off, when We attempted to suIbdue
the rebels of such state.
The injustice of our action is in our
refusal to allow Colombia the prlvI-
lege of landing troops to subdue the
rebels, for by such action We estab-
fish a precedent that may insure the
.disintegration of every South Ameri
can nation.
If 1t is not actual robbery it
amounts to holding the hands of the
victim while some one else does the
looting.
We need the canal and need it
badly, and Colombia has been out
rageously unjust and arbitrary, but
these facts do not justify wrongdoing
on our part and sooner or later we
must pay the price.
