Is necessary IN the Interest OF law and

II the law is respecter of persons, II
II fails to protect one man and allow the
mob TO tranaple the law under foot, what
guarantee has any man that he VIII be
protected? There can be no halfway
measure. no compromise with the mob
either the State or the mob must rule.
there cannot be two masters.
4 Nor Is there any occasion whatsoever
for mob violence In the State OF Virginia.
It has been aoundantly proven OF late

of proud satisfaction and felt assured that
he was living in a law-abidIng community,

The Society OF the Cincinnati.

In June, 1883, officers of tho Revolution
airy army met on the banks of the 11ud-
son River, in the State OF New York.
and organized the Society of the Cin-
cinnati. The object of this society was
ITO perpetuate the friendships formed
during the contest recently ended; 10
keep alive the patriotism OF It's mem
bers, and to provide for the needy among
their number. Tho distinction having
been made hereditary, the society was
bitterly attacked by some as being OPP
posed to republican equality, and even
Benjamin Franklin thought that he saw
in it the germ Of future aristocracy.
So bitter was the opposition that in sew
eral cities charters were refused to the
branch societies and some OF the societies
were finally dissolved.
But the fears Of the opposition were
groundless. They reckoned not with the
spirit of true democracy, which was al
most as the religion Of the American
people. The members OF the Society OF
the Cincinnati had worked together and
fought together in patriotic cause, and
were bound together by the ties OF sa-
cred association and sacrifice in sort
of spiritual democracy. Such an organi-
zatiof, was necessarily conservative and
preservative of the democratic spirit, and
there could be no taint of aristocracy
It's founders fought for independence, for
manhood. for self-government. for indl-
vidual liberty, for equal rights to every
man. They fought for the establishment
and perpetuation OF democracy in it's full
and glorious Significance. 1t is true that
they proposed to pass along the honors
from father to son, but in the very ma
ture of the case that which they handed
down was democracy, and to-day the So.
ciety of the Cincinnati is representative
of true Americanism.
1t is an honor and pleasure for Rich
mond to entertain this week the distin-
guisbed representatives OF this ancient
and honorable organization. and they
are very welcome to the Inequalities of
this "ancient and honorable" city.

WEDNESDAY, MAY 10. 1906.
The Mayors Veto the Peoples

L
nv a vote OF Ii to s the Board OF Al
aor,,a, last night defeated the Lynch
Minor plan OF expansion which was pacR-
ed by the leading trade and civic orsan'-
cations Of the city, and concurred IN the
Mills plan previously adopted by the
Council which was backed by a few 'ndiH
vduals.
Mr. A. Beirne Blair. who led the oppo-
sition to greater expansion. confessed
that he was opposed to any extension
OF the city's lines at this time. lie fur-
ther declared that he accepted the NILS
plan only as the lesser of two evils. yet
when the final vote was taken he voted
fer the Mills plan Notwithstanding that
the Lynch Minor plan had been defeated
and there was no occasion for him to
commit himself to either evil" AND
This 90. after he had shown by his own
argument, If he showed anything, that
expansion under either plan would saddle
upon us burden of maintenance that
threaten the city with financial dis
aster.
According to Mr.. Blair's reasoning, If
the Mills plan became effective. the city
will have to bear this ruinous burden.
Yet the territory to be annexed VIII az
ford no adequate relief to the congestion
in the central and western portions Of
the city, and will supply no lands suita-
Bile for manufacturing sites. We are con-
WINGED that the ordinance of annexation
as now adopted by both branches of the
Council is worse than no anneSation at
all, and we earnestly hope that the Mayor
will veto 1t and reegate the entire sub
ject to the people.
The hereditary conserva tism of Rich
mond will require some time for the
awakening of all members of our COM
munity to the vital issues Of the ques-
ton, but that awakening will come and
will demand an extension Of our borders
on broad and brave line.
In that day the watchword will be the
advancement of the public good-not the
safeguarding of private interests.

thorlties os Henrieo county and Richmond

Mccarthy and Chief Werner-in protect
ing from mob violence a negro confined
in the Henrico jail charged with brutal
crime. Il don't care whether you are
guilty or not said Sheriff Solomon to
his prisoner, Hthe mob shall not take
you; promise you that" That must be
the sentiment of every faithful and cour-
ageous officer Of the law. 1t matters not
who the criminal Is. or what his crime Is,
3 when he becomes a prisoner and is In
the custody Of the State, 1t is the sworn
duty of the officers in charge to see that
he is protected from mob violence. If
this negro is guilty OF the crime with
which he stands accused no punishment
I Thing else to be considered: The law is
/ no respecter of persons and the law guar
antees to every man, when accused OF a
crime, the right OF fair trial by i
jury of his peers
The Constitution of the United States
says that no State shall deprive any
person of life, liberty or property without
due process OF law"
Section of our own Bill. OF Rights
provides that mo man shall be deprived
OF his life or liberty except by the law OF
the land or the Judgment of his peers"
and again that in all criminal prose-
cutons man hath right TO demand the
