LANCASTER = ENTERPRISE,
Wednesday, January 13, 1904

One man was killed by anoth-
er on the streets of Lancaster
during the holidays. 1t is said
the dead man had made threats
against his slayer. The man
who slew did not resort to the
protection of the law ; he armed
himself, went on the street, met
his alleged enemy and shot.
The dead man had, it seems, a
bad reputation, but when he
was killed he was unarmed.
Two house painters met on a
crowded section of Columbia S
main thoroughfare last Friday.
One is said to have threatened
the other. The man who claims
10 have been threatened did not
apply to the sheriff or a magis
trate to have the threatener ar
rested or put under peace
bond. He armed himself and
went on the street. Meeting his
enemy he accosted him, intima-
ting his readiness to fight; then
he drew his pistol and fired with
,he intent of taking life. At
the first shot he inflicted a Sc
rious wound the wounded man
turned and fled. Again and yet
again the armed assailant fired
at the back of his fleeing enemy
with murderous intent. When
the wounded painter was being
helped to a Doctors office by
friends, his assailant walked on
the opposite side of the street,
pistol in hand, cycling him.
The man who was shot was un-
armed. The man who attempt
ed to take his life, who attempt
ed to shoot him in the back,
says he thought he was acting
in self-defense. This is simple
anarchy it is lynching without
the mob. How long will public
sentiment permit itf-TheState.

of Latter Day Saints to which is
accorded authority to shape the
belief or control the conduct Of
the members of the church.
He denies that the church in
culates or encourages belief in or
practice of poIygamy or counter
ances Or connives at violation OF
