OPPOSED TO LYNCHINGS.

Leading citizens in the south have
been organizing for the purpose of
stamping out lynching and mob law
generally. Such an organization was
recently formed in Nashville, Tenn,
and designated as the Law and Order
league. Resolutions adopted have
been signed by 96 prominent citizens
of the city. The leagues avowed pur-
poses include development of sound
public opinion leading to the prompt
and certain enforcement of the Grim
inal laws, "to cultivate a spirit Of
higher respect for the majesty of the
law; for the officers by whom and
the agencies by which it is admins
tered, and to uphold the officers Of
the law in the performance of their
duties" and publicly work "to the end
that mob violence and, at least, the
more serious crimes" may be sup
pressed.
Here are excerpts from the resolu-
tions passed by the league:
EVA are forced to confess that the
silence Of the best peoply in the pres
ence of this distressing stuation and
their unwillingness to grapple with
it have helped to produce the condi-
tions out of which have sprung law
less and frenzied mobs and timid Of
ficers of the law.
1--WE have a strong conviction that
lynching is unjustifiable under any
and all circumstances and is wrong in
the sight of man and God. What
ever may be said of a certain wild
justice in pioneer days or Of condi-
tions that prevailed after the Civil
war we cannot now defend lynching.
We must condemn it at all times and
especially since it has become asso-
ciated with the monstrous orgies of
later days. If one group Of men de-
cides that lynching is justifiable for
one crime, another will decide that
it is equally justifiable for another,
and so on, until as the facts estab-
/ lished, it is resorted to for every sort
Of crime or offense.
while public sentiment is thus be-
ing educated we shall use every oppor-
tunity to bring to bear upon respons-
ible Officers the pressure Of organized
public opinion. We will uphold them
in their enforcement of law. We will
request judges to make mob law a
special subject OF instruction to all
grand juries. We urge sheriffs to
prepare for any emergency that may
arise 1t is apparent that it is just
as much the sheriff's duty to protect
human life and keep down mob vio-
lence as it is to prevent the sale of
liquor. 1t is also worthy of note that
the supreme court has held that the
officer is not entitled to trial by jury,
but the proceedings are summary in
character, and the judge himself can
render judgment on the facts.-Tulsa

THORPE PLANNED
ESCAPE FROM JAIL
FOR MANY WEEKS
Brass Thief Who Escaped Local Jail
" Monday Night Had Cut Hole
Through Jail Wall and ny ,.
Iron Pipe Was Able to- ,o
Throw Door Lock.

Buck" Green, local negro who is in
the local jail awaiting trial on in
dictment for chicken stealing, today
told Jailer Watson and Turnkey Gault
that Jake Thorpe, who escaped from
the Jail Monday evening had been
planning his escape fol. many weeks
past and had urged Green to assist
him so that they both could make
their get away.
Green showed the Jailer a hole in
the wall near the door which Thorpe
had picked by the use of samll
piece of iron which held back
the window shutters and heavy iron
staple which he had twisted from one
of the door to the cells. For many
weeks. Green said, Thorpe had been
working at this hole which he kept
stuffed with small piece torn from
his blanket. The hole was finally
large enough that he could throw the
lock on the big az door from the in
side by the means of piece of old
| pipe which had been carried into the
| jail to him. The hole did not come
entirely through the wall of the Jail
into the Office but went just far
enough to strike the iron bar which
threw the door lock and the hole was
behind a heavy auxiliary door which
most always stood open and back
against the wall so that the hole was
not noticeable.
Green and the other prisoners were
afraid to report Thorpe to the iailer
or his assistants for fear that Thorpe
who~was a very large man, would dc
them some bodily harm.
After having discovered the hole il
the wall and finding how it coult
swing the lock, this morning, JaileI
Watson began an investigation of tho
Jail and found heavy iron cell staple
which had been covered by a piece o.
blanket and made into BLACK jack
which Thorpe is said to have kept hid
He is said to have told the prisoners
that he would get out even if he hat
to knock Mrs. Watson down wher
there were no men in the office t,
get out.
All of the prisoners have been lock
ed in cells and the ont side iail doc
is kept carefully locked until the cou.
ty officials have covered the hole pick
cd by Thorpe with heavy steel plat
for anyone with the assistance of
small piece of wood or n small ba
could throw the ~" door lock from
the inside of the Jail.
