New Strength for High Court

n . mistake was made when the Democratic
Y caucus OF the General Assembly con-
ferred the party nomination for judge Of the
Supreme Court of Appeals on Frederick
Wilmer Sims. of Louisa. That success Judge
Sims already has attained in the face of
obstacles and discouragements that would
have daunted a less resolutc spirit. proves the
mettle OF the man. The admiration and
esteem of his fellow-members OF the bar
with whom he has engaged in many hard
fought legal combats, testify to those quail
ties and attainmentS that will make useful
and honorable his service on the Supreme
Bench. His judicial fitness has been demon
strated amply
The contest has been spirited one. vigor-
ously waged. but without seeming bitterness
on either side. 1t is an additional tribute 10
Judge Sims, OF which, perhaps, he is espe
cially proud that his victory has been won
over SO able and distinguished an opponent
1t was natural and praiseworthy that many of
the former students of Professor Lille, now
members OF the Senate or House, should stand
i'll answering loyalty by their old preceptor
that a controlling majority Of the Democrats
OF the General Assembly preferred long ex-
periencr on the bench and in the active prac-
tice of law and prolonged contact with the
actualities Of life, to the student and teachers
less varied and practical equipment.

FiUe Negroes
Hanged to a
Limb of Tree

Albany, Ca, Jan. 21.-Five negroes
taken from the Worth county Jail at
Sylvester last night were hanged to
one limb of tree on the outskirts Of
Starkville some time during the night.
The bodies, containing many bullet
holes, were found this morning.
Forty or so men took the five ne
groes from the Jail and sped away in
automobiles. They were being held in
connection with the killing of Sheriff
Moreland of Lee county during the
Christmas holidays.
Cutting all wires leading north from
Sylvester was included in the plans OF
the party. officers were foiled in their
attempt to telephone to head off the
lynchers.
The five men were hanged to one
limb within full view from the road.
Apparently they had been strung up
and then became targets for the men
who had taken them from the Jail.
Four of the victims were OF one
family-Felix Lake and his three
sons, Frank, Dewey and Major. The
fifth was Rodius Seamore.
Moreland was killed at the home of
Felix Lake when he went there to ar.
rest negro.
