DINA electrified the fifth annual con-
vention of governors here today with
a bitter arraignment of the more mild
Northern statesmen who frowned on
lynching as a ccrime and punished it
as such.
In the course of his speech, during
a discussion of modern penology,"
the governor of South Carolina said:
'If the men of the South cannot
protect their women, where is their
-boasted chiyalry? All We need to
know in my state is that we have the
man who assaulted woman of our
race, and up he goes--he gets no
trial, for he isn't worthy of it. I
have pardoned over four hundred
men convicted of cocplicity in lynch
Iings within the past twenty-five
months, and hope that conditions
will be such that can make it over
800 before the end of my term. Rape
is a detestable, diabolical crime and
should be punished by death without
trial."

Population Of County Has Enlarged
II Per Cent, and Cases Of Insanity
10 Is Per Cent.

Washington.-Insan in the United
States is increasing twice as fast as
the population, according to figures
gathered by the federal government
In a special inquiry through the CEN
sus bureau.
The figures show that while the pop
ulation Of the country grew II per
cent. in the five years from 1904 to
1910, the population in asylums for the
insane rose about Is per cent. AS
to the number of cases of insanity not
resulting in commitments to hospitals,
the census bureau has no data.
Our figures" says Director Durand,
afford a striking indication of the
prevalence of insanity, if not an exact
measure It is somewhat startling to
reflect that the 1S7,454 patients con-
fined in hospitals for the insane make
up a population larger than Columbus,
Co."

largest individual cotton mill owner
in the world, who owns cotton milla

sachusetts, employing In all 1900

niversary of his birth. He started to
work in cotton mill II years ago,
when a boy Of eight years, for IS
cents week and never attended
school until he was seventeen; then
only for a year and half. So fast
did he learn, however, that at the
age of nineteen he was a teacher in
the district school of Exeter, Mass,
his native town.
During the Civil war the Robert
Knight mills were among the very
few that continually kept going, and
his profits were large. The knight

LESS GOLD is MINED

On the other hand, Australia showed
a continuance of the decline which
has been persistent since 1903, the
loss In 1911 being about $4,O0O,OOO
The production OF North America was
about the same as in 1910.
These three grand geographic div1-
sions produced nearly 100000, 900 and
the gains and losses in other produ-
cling countries probably about Offset
each other. Australasia has fallen
from $89,210,100 in 1903 to So, OOO,-
900.
Although gold production continues
to increase, the increase was at a
diminishing rate and the director ex-
presses the opinion that there is moth
ing in the present outlook to indicate
a repetition of the phenomenal gains
that were made between 1890 and 1899
and between 1901 and 1908. They were
the result Of the discovery OF the cya-
hide process and of the development
of the wonderful Transvaal field. The
only country in the world that is
showing notable gains at this time is
Africa, and the Transvaal field is near
ing its maximum.

some parts of the orient to describe
q form Of homicidal MANIA accompan-

In MALAGA, Slam, Java, and adjacent
