EVIL IEluEncE OF MOB LAW.

President ROosevels letter to Governor Durbin com
mendng the latters prompt vigorous action in win
djcating the majesty of the the Evansville lynch
ing is timely and In every way admirable He as
srts, Governor Durbln and Governor Yates had al
Deady done, that mob violence is simply one form OF
anarchy Justice Brewer went UNSUITABLE step further
and called it murder
Commenting on the action of the president, the New
York World paper not politically friendly to him. says
THAI his declanaon the spirit laessness grows
with what it feeds on and when mobs with IMMUNITY
lynch criminals for crime they are certain to begin
70 lynch zeal alleged criminals other causes is
borne by the news Within the last fortnight
there have been Iynchings carried out or at
tempted for ordinary murders assault and battery upon
men thieving and even for insults"
Vey impressive is Mr. Roosevelt's warning against
the deplcRble effect upon the counrnity and upon the
individuals engaged in these mob murders. Whoever
he "in any Part Of country has ever taken part
in lawessy putting death criminal by the dreadful
torture of fra must forever after have the specta
Gle Of his handiwk scared into his brain and soul
he can never again be the same rsa."
But while ccndemning as beyond extenuaton the
bnchings the president says plainly the coored PEG
pie relation the hdeous crime which incites these
mobs that they should in every way possible show their
belief that they. than all others community
Mortified at the commission Of such crime and are
peculiarly concerned In taking every possible measure to
prevent its recurrence and bring she criminal to inme
date Justice"
The president likewise puts emphasis upon the de
pand that wretches who have been guilty OF the crime
most frequently the Of lynchings should meet with
swift vengeance under the law: he rightly says
that the best immediate efforts of all legislators
Judges and citizens should he addressed to securing such
reforms IN legal procedure as to leave no vestge Of
excuse for those misguided who undertake 10 wreak
vengeance through violent methods"
These words Of the president will not only be
read all over this country hut they rebound TO tbs
credit d government throughout the civilized world
