THERE rs A BETTER WAY +.

The Newberry Observer, in very
sensible article, aptly remarks that
our circuit judges are becoming
somewhat given to Grating from the
bench. No doubt they mean Well
but as a practical proposition juries,
according to their lights, appear to
be doing pretty we'll in South Carolina
these days, and if all of the court
machinery shall keep pace with our
/ juries it will not be long before there
will be greater respect for law in the
State
Recently at WATERFORD Judge
Prince delivered from the bench a
speech denouncing the officers of the
law for lodging around with Fox,
Gappins and Kirby instead of boldly
bringing the men to the penitentiary.
1t is practically certain that had
Sheriff Roof attempted to have
brought these Williams from Augusta
when he first went there for them
there would have been a lynching, or
many persons would have been
killed. The. sheriff was warned by
Solicitor Callison that a mob was
waiting between this place and
Augusta for the purpose of wrecking
vengeance upon these men. In this
case discretion was the better part of
valor. It would have been an easy
matter to have caused the death Of
perhaps many people by making the
attempt to bring the prisoners to Lex
ington. Such a course could not
have been justified when it was pos
sible to protect the prisoners and at
the same time preserve perhaps many
lives or prevent a very serious dis
order.
The idea that law enforcement Off
GERS must make themselves appear
so terrible that every man should
tremble before them is not in any
wise compatible with our ideas Of
freedon-and by freedom we do not
mean freedom to execute the law by
any but the constituted authorities.
We need to be taught respect for law,
but there are better ways of inculcat-'
ing it in. axfree people than shooting
it into them.
