convinced beyond doubt that IL this
recommendation is needed by his ex-
Cellency it will directly foster and in
stigate lynch law, as men will feel no
protection under the law, and II will
ultimately lead to anarchy which we
know Is a blot on civilization, and will
impoverish us of justice and freedom
which our fathers fought to estab-
lieh."
Governor Slaton replied to the mes
sage. addressing his answer to J. F.
Price. chairman Of the committee

hearing to the case in a short while
