Mr.. Hoskin III.

Mr.. W. A. Hoskin was taken
dangerously i'll Sunday, the 18th
and for a time life was despaired
of. DR.. Shirley, of Winchester,
was called in consultation with
the attending physicians Drs.
Smith and Irwin. Under the To-
cal physicians care he has got
ten along real nicely and is now
able to go about the place. The
numerous friends of Mr.. Hoskin
wish for him a speedy and COM
plete recovery.
We neglected to mention Mr..
Hoskin's illness in our last issue
on account of waiting for the
latest information concerning his
condition and at the time of 60
ing to press it was overlooked.

Bridge Talk.

The Champion Bridge Compa.
ny, of Wilmington, Ohio, and
the Joliet Iron and Bridge Co.,
of Joliet, ILL.,, will each have a
representative at the meeting of
the City Council next Wednes-
day night and try to interest our
people in the building of a bridge
across Red river at this place.
Travelling men usually are good
takers and we hope these gentle
men will be exceptionally so if
they can talk a bridge in here,
for the Council could make no
mistake in contracting for SUBJ
stantial bridge at any point cross
ing the river into Clay City.

The Lynch Law.

Ever and anon the question is be-
fore us for a season why mobs are
so much more frequent in the South
than in the North. Most usually
The answer is given that the reason
lies in the fact that the South has
the negro to deal with in greater a
bundance than the North. This
may have some bearing on the
question, but when we consider
that there are more whites mobbed
in the South than all classes put to-
gether in the North, than the above
ceases to be legitimate reason.
We must therefore look some where
else for solution of the question.
Perhaps the secret of the matter lies
in the laxity or rather the over-rid-
ing of the majesty of the law. The
daily papers are publishing a tabu-
lated list Of the pardons of crimi-
ais in number of states both North
and South for given time. Wheth-
er they furnish an answer to this
question or not the comparison of
these figures is quite significant.
Let's compare few states North
and South. In three years Indiana
pardoned convicts, Kentucky just
across the river in less time, par
doned 80. Pennsylvania in two
years pardoned so while Alabama
in the same length of time pardon
ed 1856. Wisconsin in two years
pardoned 3, while Texas in the same
time pardoned 420, New York with
all her millions in two years par
doned 30 while Georgia in the same
length of time pardoned III. Illi-
rois in two years pa1doned 2, while
Tennessee in four years pardoned
400. Maine in two years pardoned
2, while Arkansas in the same
length Of time pardoned 800, and
thus the list might be continued.
Whether this furnishes an answer
to the question or not, we must ad-
NIT that these figures are quite sig
nificant. AS long as the governors
and pardoning boards of the South
override the mandates of the law
this way what else but anarchy can
we expect? The people pay the tax
and our courts drag out contin-
ued and expensive prosecution and
finally after days and sometimes
weeks of delay the criminal is sent
to prison perhaps for less than half
the time that Justice would demand.
But in a short time the governor,
through the pretense of sympathy,
turns the criminal loose on a suffer-
ing public. While this state of af-
fairs exists we need not expect any
thing but the present state of affairs.
if our highest officials persist in
overriding the law, and trampling
justice under foot, we can not ex-
pect any thing else but that the
people will follow in their wake.
If we would cleanse the stream,
we should first purify the fountain.

Special to The Journal.
New York, Feb. PA corps Of sur
veyors left New York, Feb. 20, for
Omaha, to survey the country ewest Of
the Missouri river, toward the Pacific
coast. The head of the party does not
know in whose interest the survey Is
to be made, but has orders to make
it complete, and to lay down on paper
as short q line as possible to the Paci-
fic. The expenses will be met thru an
engineering firm with offices in II
Broadway.
1t is believed the survey will lay
down line to constitute a right OF
way for the Chicago, Milwaukee & st.
Paul road, when there is an opportun-
ity to build lifelong link between the
Missouri and the Pacific. There is no
official continuation Of this belief.
Chairman Roswell Miller of the Mil
waukee, denies that there is the least
proba bility that the directors will
| shortly authorize the raising OF capital
| in any form. The road is not doing
anything itself or with it's own survey
ors that would afford a just basis for
j! the belief. The engineers whose
checks will pay the expenses, say II
| is their own business, and that certain
| ~ they are not encouraging any
guesses as to what line will use the
right of way when it is completed.
! The party consists OF sixty men
who will work in five separate and dis
tinct parties, reporting ultimately tt
one head.

BURLING.roN's NEW ORDER
Sweeping Effect Will Be Felt Only IL
Kansas City.

Kansas City, Feb. 24.--Notice has
been given by the Burlington railroad
that it will decline to absorb any
terminal charge at Kansas City on
grain or grain products for shipment
over that line including inbound OF
outbound switching, reconsignment
charge, transfer charge or any other
terminal charge. The same notice
says that the Burlington will refuse to
sign bills Of lading for grain or grain
products loaded in Burlington cars
without permission of the company.
This applies to Kansas City only and
is the result of the practice of using
Burlington equipment by other lines
without permission. The notice means
that the Burlington intends to go out
of the grain business so far as 1T re
lates to handling shipments east OF
Kansas City. No such sweeping or
der has been issued by railroad IN
years.
