with which it has to deal"
In addition to Judge Daley's action
In this case, Gov. Terrell has already
stated that he proposed to lay before
the Bulloch county grand jury the en-
tire testimony taken with regard to the
lynching before the recent court of
inquiry.
Mob violence always stirs up and
encourages the lawless element" Judge
Daley continued. ito the commission
of greater crimes against the law, and
the result Is that innocent negroes are
in many cases being punished. Only
short time ago in my town, Wrights-
vile. fire was set to a negro lodge
room, but fortunately it was extin-
guished before much damage was done.
Last Saturday night another negro
lodge room was burned to the ground
Both fires are supposed to have been
of incendiary origin.
This all goes to show how one act
of lawlessness brings on another, and
until this lawless element is brought to
justice there is no telling to what dis
astrous end their crimes will lead"
