WHITTIER ARE
WE DRIFTING?

Two persons were lynched in Ala
bama and one in Georgia yesterday.
These acts, following so closely in
the wake of the outlawry in the case
of Leo M. Frank are naturally caus-
ing apprehension among people who
believe in law and order.
Thousands of postcards represent
ing Franks body dangling from an
oak tree have been printed IN At
lanta and purchased by young and
old alike who would flood ether por-
lions of the country with them had
not the Atlanta postal authorities
excluded them from the mail. 1t was
stated yesterday that the day OF the
lynching was observed as a general
holiday by many Georgians. 1t may
be suggested that franks Day" may
become an occasion of public rejolc-
ing in that state as Guy Fawkes
Day" is in England.

The Germans have recently exercls-
ed care not to sacrifice human lives
when such course is unnecessary.
The sinking of the Lusitania and the
fearful loss of life which resulted
brought forth cry of indignation
from the civilized world which is be-
ing needed by the navies of England
and Germany. The action of the COM
mander of the British man-of-war
will be commended. The sinking Of a
trawler would have added no glory
to the officers and crew of one OF
his majesty's vessels.

GERMANS CHEER
BRITISH NAVY.

German cheers for men IN the
British Navy are an unusual wartime
incident reported from the North Sea
bv the captain and crew of the Ger
man trawler GunGrun, belonging on
Altoona, which has Just arrived at
Esbjerg.
The captain said the Gundrun was
stopped in the North Sea by a BRIT
iSh squadron. He promptly got MS
boats ready and distributed life-belts
believing his ship was certain to De
sunk.
When the British Seamen reached
the trawler the captain begged tol
time to take to the boats, and al
mits that he was staggered at Uhe
short and pointed reply.
"You can take the whole ship; we
shall not harm you"
The captain adds that the British
left amid the hearty cheers of the
greatly relieved Germans.
The above is refreshing. consider.
ing the bad blood so often shown by
the nations engaged in the war ir
Europe and is an example whlc'
will tend considerably towarI the
manifestation of humanity between
the be!l;ge-eats.

PUBLISHED DAIRY
WHAT WILL THEY
DO ABOUT 1T?

We believe it was Curran, the fam
Gus Irish lawyer, who said "You can
not indict a community" The Cover
nor of Georgia has began work in
earnest to identify the members OF
the mob who lynched Leo M. Frank,
but that his efforts to bring the guilty
parties to trial will prove abortive
is the general opinion. The element
who aflrms the act are defiant ana IN
an ugly mood, and there IS every
reason to believe that words credited
to Curran will prove true in the
Frank case.
The following extracts from a dis
patch from Marietta. Ga, are signl'
ficant.
"The murder Of Leo NJ. Frank will
go unavenged by the law if it is to be
punished in the country where it was
committed. No jury in Cobb county
would convict the murderers, no
grand jury would indict them, no Of
fetal would undertake to prosecute
them. The vast majority Of the peo-
ple believe that Frank got no more
than his deserts, and that the mob
simply carried out the verdict of the
law after it had been arbitrarily set
aside by a governor who was a law
partner of Franks lawyer.
"The leading citizens who took part
in the hanging have resumed their
occupations with no sign upon them
of guilty conscience, for they nave
none. Their consciences. approve them
and what they hear from their fell
low citizens wherever they go adds
to their self approval, for the city APP
proves them. They are regarded not
merely as men who can plead justifi-
cation; but as men who prevent q
miscarriage Of justice and saved the
law from being set aside and Knocked
by man who happened to fill the
governors chair.
"The feeling in Marietta is illus
trated in jeering and sarcastic tele-
gram sent by the chief of police to
Detective William J. Burns. who was
hired by Franks. friends and was
run out of Marietta after an attempt
to lynch him:
william J. Burns, Burns Detective
Agency, New York:
: LEO NJ. Frank lynched mere yes
terday. Come quick and help investi-
gate. H. H. Looney Chief of Police"
, A dispatch from Atlanta says:
"The public will never know the
Identities of the 25 brave and 10y al
men who took into their own hands
the execution of law that had been
stripped from them by Gov. Slaton.
1t would not be advisable for IN
uuisitive authorities or persons to try
to reveal them. They are as jealous
" banded together now and as rent
less as the moment they invaded the
State Prison.
The words this dispatch are
sufficiently plain. They mean that
the authorities will not only be de-
fed, but that it will be dangerous for
such to attempt to. do their duty.
