RABBI scHWARz CONDEMNS
THE LYNCHINC

Editor Pensacola Journal:
For the second time within eight
months our fair city has been dis
gTaced and its decent and law abiding
citizens put to the blush by a dis
graceful outrage against law and Or
der committed by a lawless element
with the insOIence and the temerity
to take the law into their own hanuS
and presume TO act for the entire peO-
pie of Pensacola who must perforce
bear the responsibility and the stigma.
The more shame and pity is il, that
on going down town this morning
found scarce a ripple of comment or
indignation, so that it is not imprOba-
bic that this letter will have the char
acter Of a voice crying in the wilder
ness.
And yet, some one must speak out
and give expression to what would no
doubt be the verdict of many, had
they but the courage TO admit it. l
am most happy to say that / was not

meT, and had only the humiliation and
pain of reading of the disgraceful at
fair in a northern paper under the
usual caption that describes such
traVeStieS on justice so common in
UnciyiliZed corners of the earth. My
horror was sufficient on learning, af-
ter my return, that there were many
who openly boosted of their part in
il and proudly laid claim to the honor
of having touched the rope.
And this time there is not even the
excuse offered for the last lynching.
Have we no confidence at all in our
courts of law. no faith in the citizens
of our community to see justice done

the mercy of any mob Of undesirable
citizens that allow themselves TO be

these cases, and as il was during the
strike of last year, by hoodlums?

Pensacola Quits.

Several weeks ago the sheriff of ES-
Gambia county announced that he
proposed to enforce every law upon
the statute books. with reference to
the observance of Sunday. This meant
that he would not only put a stop to
all forms of petty traffic on that day,
but that he would put an end to the
running of trains, the loading of ships,
the manufacturing of ice, the Operat-
ing of street car lines and other in
dustTies which under modern cOndi-
tiOns have come to be looked upon as
necessities on every day of the week.
But Pensacola has seen the futility OF
trying TO enforce Anticipated and OBJ
soIete blue laws and has quit. The
city, the sheriff and the people have
seen the uSeIessneSS Of trying to put
an end to modern conditions and
turning back the hands on the clock
of time The reaction has come. as
come it must, and Pensacola, accord
ing to adviceS sent out by the wires,
IS as wide open as ever il was. The
thirsty Pensacolian can get his soda
water on Sunday. He may even puT-
chase a cigar on that day, or buy
newspaper. Pleasure boats with happy
cxcursionists once more ply the Wa
tiers of the bay. and on last Sunday,
so it is said. there were two cracking
good games of baseball on the home
grounds. 1t was ever thus when the
pendulum swings the other way
