The End.
Shall the People Rule?

The killing of the manager OF a
theater in Jacksonville, Florida, by
robbers last Saturday night was one
of dozens of atrocious crimes report
ed in the dispatches last Sunday and
Monday. The Jacksonville robber
was captured and a crowd assembled
around the Jail but consequently
dispersed. The man was not lynched
and would not have been lynched.
Now what will happen? Will the
man be defended by shrewd. lawyers
and will the case drag a weary length
from court to court? When a white
man commits a crime, no matter how
wicked, and is convicted by a jury,
does not motion for a new trial and
appeal invariably follow?
How much correspondence is to
be observed between the heinous-
ness of a crime and certainty, swift
ness and severity of punishment?
Whenever honest, substantial and
resolute people of the state shall
form the habit of convicting the
guilty and shall simplify their laws,
so that they shall not be the play
things of adroit lawyers, crimes will
diminish.
We do not hold the lawyers re-
sponsible for conditions. If the peo-
pie who elect legislators have not
laws and governments so that law
yers shall not outwit them, it is
their fault.
Judged by the prevailing symptoms
that outcrop in newspapers every
day, this country is now in a state
of semi-barbarism and if there be a
majority of good citizens who be-
lieve in civilization they are not alive
to it and refuse to awake to it. Most
Of the murderers that are turned
loose are released because the poe
loose are released because the poe
pie themselves do not want them
punished.
1t is the business of the people to
make the laws, to elect the judges
and the governor.
When the people turn to %lynching
because they have been circumven-
ted by their own hired servants, the
sole explanation is that the people
are not fit for civilized government.
If there be any escape from the

heavens name. is it?-The State.

Washington, D. Gin testifying be-
fore the Senate Committee on Inter-

witnesses for the railroads contended
that:
ID The costs of operation are alb
normal, owing chiefly to wage scales

exceed wage paid for similar work in
other industries, and to wasteful labor
costs, often for work not done, en-
forced upon the railroads by the so
called "National AgreementS."<

dollar of operating expenses I'm 1920
were at prices fixed directly by the
government, or by general market con-
ditions and over which the railroad
Arrangements had no control.

preston was not due to the high
freight rates, but to the lack of buy
ing both here and abroad.
