The jury brought in a verdict of
guilty in. the peonage cases tried in

tupity for determining the truth was
better than that of those who merely
read reports of the case
The United States court will impose
punishment for peonage if the YER
dict of the jury stands. If the testi-
mony on which the jury convicted was
true, the matter should not be per-
mitted to end with punishment for
peonage. The testimony showed many
cases Of assault and battery This
was violation of the state law. The
crime of peonage was complete when
men were held in involuntary servi-
tude No assault was necessary to
constitute the crime, and every case
of assault and battery constitutes a
separate offense against the state laws,
land the men who are guilty should be
punished
1t is not clear whether these offenses
are alleged to have been committed
in Florida or Alabama Perhaps some
were committed in one state and some
in the other At any rate the state
should act. The impression should
not be created that the interference
of the nation is necessary to the pro-
