NO INTERVENTION IN GEORGIA
(From New York WOrld.)

(From New York WOrld)
Five negroes, all Americans, were
taken from the Worth county jail at
| Sylvester and lynched, but no United
States Senator has introduced a reso-
luton calling for intervention in Geor-
gia by the United States. The ne
groes were hanged to the limb of
| tree and their bodies riddled with bull
lets, but congress in it's wrath is not
clamOring for the instant invasion OF
Georgia by Federal forces to vindicate
the rights of American citizens.
Neither Senator Fall of New Mexico
nor Senator Borah of Idaho has made
an impassioned plea to the Senate
that the brutal murder of five Amer
leans by Georgia mob be avenged
in blood and the national honor up
held in the eyes of the world.
The victims of the Georgia mob did
not carry United States passports
either. They had not asked for a mil
itary escort. They were in jail and
under the protection of the authorities
of the law. They were not in semi
barbarious foreign country infested
with bandits and guerilla forces. Their
personal safety was pledged by the
laws of the State of Georgia and the
peaceful character of the community
to which they belonged An Ameri-
can citizens at home, they enjoyed
the full guarantees of a Constitution
of the United States, designed to es-
tablish justice, insure domestic tran
guilty and secure to them the bles-
sings of liberty.
Georgia is not Mexico. 1t is a proud |
and sovereign state of the Union If |
its law-abiding people happen to in
dulge a weakness for Iynihing, it is |
because they have state traditions to !!
maintain. In 1911 there were eleven
lynchings in the state; in 1912, elev
en-; in 1913, seven; in 1914, only two,
far short of the annual average. Janu-
airy 10, 1915, at Monticello, a mob of
100 men gathred at the Jasper county |
jail and lynched four negroes That
was just a year ago. This week the
mob lynched five. Up to October II, Il
1915, there were fourteen lynchings
last year in Georgia, in which Amer
leans were shot, hanged or burned at II
the stake. The lynching of Leo Frank
