Wreak Vengeance FOR Attack on
Members Of White Race.

Stamps. Ark. March 21.-Two ne
gro women were shot to death by =.
mob last night at Mechanic, a village
six miles south of here. The town
has no jail. and the women had been
locked up in the school house and a
guard put in charge Of the building.
They were charged with using a
razor with probably fatcl effect on
Mrs. Ella Rhoton, a white woman,
and her daughter. and kicking Mrs.
Rhoton's little son. 1t seems that
the RhOton's met the colored women
on a public road IN McKamIe, and. &C
cording to Mrs. Rhoton, the negresses
showed her out OF the road and kicked
'the little boy Mrs. Rhoton told
them to quit kicking the child and
they then attacked her and her dangh
ter. The men guarding the prisoners
in the school house made very little
resistance to the lypchers.

mainland. The explorers say that
the party may not return from this

THE GERRYMANDER.

II was not exclusively Republican
victory recorded in the decision OF
the court OF appeals Yesterday, up
holding the opinion that the gerry
mander of 1906, grouping a number
of Republican counties into one dis
trict. was a violation of the spirit
of the constitution. 1t was a victory
of the people over the politician, a
warning that marks the limit to
which politically biased legislatures

passed by the legislatures for the
past ls years What condemnation
OF the conduct Of political party by
its own judgesl
The court expresses the rather
vaguely founded hope that the next
liegielature viii do justice to the peo-
pie and redistrict the state in an
equitable manner, according TO the
letter and spirit of the constitution.
The point was made by the con-
tes;ants in the suit that the joining
o. more than two counties into one leg
liflative district is per Sc a violation
of the spirit OF section 1888 of the
constitution: but the court held other.
Wise. provided it be necessary in
order to efrectuate that equality Of
which the spirit of
the whole section demands" 1t adds
rather Significantly, 1T is dIficuh at
this time to see how this necessity
can otter arise"
The uneven growth of population
requires that every decade. or so the
state be redistricted so as to apbor-
ton the representation according to-
population, and such an equitable
distribution Of the representation,
having due regard for the geographic
cal outlines of a proposed district,
would be right; hut the legislature
of this state has been consistently
following the pan OF herding Repub-
lican counties into as few districts as
possible, sometimes placing in the
same district counties that touch at
the corners.
When It comes to the disfranchise-
ment of citizens, It is no longer a
question OF party advantage, but one
for all citizens, Democrats and Re
publicans, to become interested in;
for such high handed outrage breeds
anarchy and disrespect for the Jaw,
both on the part of the aggrieYed and
the aggressors, and endangers the
rights Of the people If the Demo-
Gratis cannot retain their power in
Kentucky except by the exercise of
such unwarranted license, 1t is time
for a change in policy.
