LAUNDERING ON PORT ARTHUR

Tago and Kuroki are still hammer
ing upon the doors of Port Arthur,
and the fall of the fortress in a day or
two seems assured. II the Russian
garrison is determined to.be annihllat-
ed before surrendering, the Japanese
forces seem none the less determined
to capture the place. It is hardly to
be doubted that they will eventually
succeed, but the sacrifice Of life must
be great. Toe Investment of Port
Arthur is being steadily enforced by the
Japanese, who have already captured
most of the outer defenses, and at one
point are wi hin cannon range of the
citadel itself. Late advices say that
shells are b ing dropped into the city
and that several citizens. have thus
been injured. The Russians seem
desperate and determined; the jap
auese reckless Of the cost of the for.
midabe undertaking. The japanese
will, of course, gain an important
advantage by the capture of Port
Arthur, bnt is ia would not nee
essarlly be an irreparable loss to the
Russians. Tue attempted flight of the
Russian fleet appears to be of ominous
significance. It would seem to indicate
that the fall of Port Arthur is lmmi .
nent. TlmeIs of the greatest import
ance to the Japanese. Their success
lies in quick and aggressive action
On the other hand, the Russian policy
is to play for time, Cri ici,m of a
commanding General, without full
knowledge Of the situation, IS idle and
presump nous, but Kuropatkin see ms
to be pursuing wise policy in his
movements for delay, while the Jap.
anese commander is also employing
the tactics and stra egg that will most
effectively serve the Japanese interests.
The fall of Port Arthur would enable
the Japanese TO greatly increase the
force operating against KuropatkiD,
aud would have the effec', probably,
of fastening the crisis IN that direc-
ton. The war in ManchurIa IS far
from being ended.

LAWS DELAYS IS RESPONSIBLE

The fearful punishment visited upon
the murderers of the Hodges family at
Statesboro GA. is to be deplored, yet 1t
is the natural sequence for such an
atrocious CRIME. Not in years has
such fearful spectacle as the burning
of two humans at the stake been
Witnessed in Georgia. Why was this
second crime committed? It was not
the fear that the negroes would escape
hanging for they had already been
sentenced to death, and had freely and
openly told of the wholesale murder
and connected their companions with
it, Was ii not the fear of needless de-
lay, tho exasperating Hardness in
executing criminals that so often &C.
ours after conviction? The outraged
people of Statesboro knew full well
that there would be months of delay
in legally hanging Reid and Cato.
The usual motion for new trial would
have been made and, this denied, the
case would have been appealed to the
supreme court. There it may have
remained for months, awaiting con-
sideration. If, FINALLY, the judgment
of the lower court was sus aimed and
the day of execution fixed, there was
reason to expect still further delay in
the form of reprieYe upon the plea OF
''newly discovered evidence" This
prospect, and 1t is the history of all
such cases in Georgia, exasparated the
people of Statesboro, as 1t would those
of any other community. The guilty
negroes had been legally tried and
convicted; why needless-s delay in
executing the punishment imposed?
1t was the laws delay as much as a
thirst for revenge that inspired these
outraged people to lynch the prisoners.
And the laws delay Will be respon-
sible for many more such horrible
scenes in Georgia in the future, as it
has been IN the past.

One Of the favorita maxims of Gen
eral Grant and one certainly in ac-
cord with human nature was that in
every closely contested battle there
comes a time when both sides are exe
hausted. When this condition arises,
he said, the army that first breaks the
lull and puts itself in motion is likely
to win a blow then is worth a dozen
previous ones.
