Brave Fil.e1nen.

.l.s
Heroism is usually associated in
the public mind with battle fields, and
many inspiring are the records, of
deeds of valor and Of struggle. But
in these days OF peace we are con-
tinrally being reminded that there
are battles other than those in which
men are pitted against each other in
deadly combat. Probably among the
most spectacular are those in which
hardy, fenr!ess and trained men wres-
tie with the great fires which threaten
property and lives. Intent upon
thelr duty and: with no selfish
thought OF themselves these hremen
stand face to face with danger in
such battle, and oftimes as In the
every recent catestrophies in Chica-
go, Philadelphia and other cities
prove, they go unfalteringly to their
death. Such heroism Is an inspira-
ton to the performance Of duty un-
der all circumstances and strength
ems faith in human nature.

OF course there is an enquiry Gs to
the cause or causes that led to the
death OF so many hremen in the re-
cent Chicago {: fire. There always is
an inestigation after a catastrophe
and.,great things are promised at the
outset Of what is going :to be done in
the way of reform and Of the severe
punishment to be meted out to the
guilty ones. But some way or other
the investigation usually fingers on,
the report Is smothered or made in
ocuous, no guilty one Is punished,
and no reforms instituted. There is
an occasional exception to all this,
but 1t Is only very occasional, and the
stockyard Investigation Will be one Of
the executions IL anything of value
results from 1t.

Something Unusual.

One Of the worst Of English rail-
road accidents happened in that
-crntrv = weelr or two ago resulting
In the loss OF abou: thirty lives. The
singular thing about 1t Is the fact
tha: the railroad company voluntarily
assumed responsibility for the acci-
dent, II seems almost IKE miracle
thst any large corporation or trust
should take the blame to Itself. U.s.
.ua1ly, 1t is the otherlway and the
best legal talent Is employed and
every slhterfnga resorted to in the
effort to show that an accident Ia the
fault Of others, IN actof divine prov
idence, or methlng else. and that
tie corporation Is as innocent as an
infant child.

Thumb Rings.

That demand made by so1ne ladies
in an eastern state that married men
be compelled by law to wear thumb
rings has at least the merit Of novel
t., but it would not work. Men are
such wicked. designing creatures that
they would find some way to circuIn-
vent the law and continue to fiirt
with and make love to casuspecting
females. Tet the idea has great pos
sibilities. Why not, for instance,
enlarge 1t and compel man to wear
ring for every marriage he has con-
tracted. In some districts with some
men the two thumbs would scarcely
be large enough to carry all the
rings.

Pink Franklin's Case.

| In commenting on the action Of
Gov. Ansel III committing the death
sentence Of Pink Franklin to imprie-
onment for life in the penitentiary
the Columbia Record says the Gov
ernor's conclusions in the case do
|not appear to be supported BY the
faets4wsieh-h relates In his decree
or decision, = which. the Record goes
on to dem onstrate IN a most con-
elusive manner. ''If Constable Val
ent,ne, says the Record, holding
valid warrant. had a legal. right to
Invade the negro's home and eject
his arrest BY force, the killing OF
Valentine was murder and his slayer
should hang.
.+.'Ifs Constable Valentine, holding q
warrant valid or invalid, had no legal
right to invadef thesnegro's home and
effect his arrest by. force, the negro
had legal right to resist such IN
lawful entrance anG in killing the
constable he: was justified, and should
therefore go free. If guilty. the ne
gro should hang; !not serve a life
term in the penitentiary. If not
guilty, he should neither hang nor:
serve a life sentence. ~, E.
"There is. no manslaughter: In the
case; even If there were. the penalty
for manslaughteriis Is not life imprls-
onment but Imprisonment from two
to twenty years. Pink Franklin, no
matter the color Of his skin, should
either, hang: OF go free. That Is all
there Is to the killing Of. the con-
stable KS
The Record is exactly right, and
we are glad to cay that the. opinion
expressed by it agrees with the opin-
ion expressed by The Times and
Democrat more than once in this
case. AS the Record says, Franklin
Is either guilty Of murder or he Is
innocent, and he should either be
hung. or set free. There is NO 'es-
Gaping that conclusion, from what
Gov Ansel himself says In his e1-t
cuse for comm uting the sentence Of
Franklin ito life imprisonment.

The State seems to think that

The State seems to think that be-
cause white man might have es-
capped punishment under the testi-
mony that convicted Franklin OF
murder, tAat the negro should be
excused. 1t Is hard to convict a
white man In this State on any kind
Of testimony. but because Of this
fact, we do not think that either JUS
t!ce or wisdom demands that negro
criminals should be allowed to es-
cane because white men are not con-
yicted Of crime. Rather than lower
the standard OF justice so as negroes
can escape deserved punishment, let
US strive 10 raise 1t 40 as it will
reach and punish the white man

criminal.
