The quest for light as TO the attitude
of the elected public servants of Illinois
took the correspondent to Kankakee, the
home of Gov. Small. AS a human being
tire Governor has the public sympathy
He was near the end OF his nine weeks
trial at Waukegan on a charge Of en-
bezzling State money when the riots
began between Herrin and Marion. Two
days after his acquittal his wife died.
But as a Governor he has not acquitted
himself valiantly in respect of his hand
ling of the emergency. on the night
of June 21. after the killing was over.
he ordered 1000 State troops mobilized
at Chicago When the report of the
killing reached him in the trial room he
said he could not believe It possible In
view of his reports from Adjutant-
Gen. Black. But IL IL Is true said
the Governor. then Attorney General
Brundage is the man responsible for
keeping me here at this time. away
from my affairs as Governor
Small and Brundage are both Repub-
licans. but Small belongs to the William
Hale Thompson camp and Brundage
does not.
Gov Small said to the correspondent
of THE New YORK HERALD:
IF l had known longer in advance
that there was to be trouble they might
have had troops. After the trouble j
repeatedly wired the Sheriff asking him
what he had done, and he replied he had
| everything well in hand and there was
no occasion for troops"
The Governor said he had no power
| to employ attorneys, and his normal
supply of legal advice was cut off by
| his feud with Attorney General Brun-
dage. He continued
Until there is evidence that the local
authorities are not going to enforce the
! law my duty is to see IL there is any
possibility of repetition of the crime
and to prevent it,"
| He added that because of his per-
sonal affairs-the trial and the death of
| his wife--he had not been able to de-
vote much thought to Williamson county

hope that 1.-THE Williamson county au-

Difficulty Foreseen.
There is this difficulty in every
State: The criminal laws are based
on the idea that no wrong must be done
to the individual, with the result that
society is sometimes unable to protect
itself. The defendant can get change
of venue. the State cannot So In the
present case the jury must be chosen
from preJudiced and intimidated con-
stituency. The Sheriff cannot be re-
moved by the Governor except for
permitting a prisoner to be lynched.

cannot be obtained now. Later 1t may

I'm the East st. Louis riots of 1917
many negroes were killed. l was In
vited to step in while the troops were
still there, and did so. The Grand Jury
heard 800 witnesses before one of them
would identify a member of the mob.
That opened the floodgates We In

seventeen to the penitentary and others
to jail, and fned still others. There
has been no racial disturbance since.
This taught respect for law. The local

reversed by the Appellate Court
I'm East st. Louis we had the advan-
tage of having a friendly Sheriff. and for
Jurors we went to the agricultural dis
tricts. In Williamson county good part
Of the farm land is leased for mining.
When the local officers are unfriendly

he knows where he can go to obtain a
friendly jury.

did to East ST. Louis and try to make

Mcdowell in the first part Of the march
after the surrender. and then had
marched the rest of the prisoners TO the
woods near the power house OF the Coal
Belt Electric Railroad Company and
about 100 yards from the power house
and had killed all they could.
THE mystery of the whole thing is
what started the wholesale killing;
whether it was the mobs leaders or was
started by some fanatic. We may never
know. / have not heard that the men
were drunk, but knowing something

There will be one," he said. '"rhe

that it Is hard to convict under such

truth. and why not be frank?
"As for me, I am not a candidate for

"Yes. sir, It's hard to get jury with

now, with this strike dragging on and
everything. They're as desperate as a
bunch Of longhorn Texas cattle lying on
| the desert sand and fighting off gnats.
You've got to take that into considera-
tion."
So we leave the States attorney, a
bravely speaking man with pessimistic
outlook in this particular matter, and
| inquire next as to the character of Judge
Hartwell, before whom any trial Of the
people against persons accused of the
mine murders must be held. The Judge,
by every report and the evidence of a
personal conversation, which cannot be
repeated, is foursquare. He has a curl
osity shop of firearms in his own home

hardware stores in Marion, Herrin and
other towns one of them harangued him
in front of his own house. demanding
his arms and ammunition.

Judge. IF ] had thrown a soft potato

to my wife. If they try anything I'll

Fear to Go to Testify.

At his summer home in Evanston the
correspondent found Attorney General
Brundage. He had just received letter
from a relative of man who had been
mutilated at Herrin. demanding Justice.
Mr.. Brundage has a keen blue eye and
fine face. From him II was learned
why the Grand Jury which meets in
Marion this week will not be asked to
consider the strip mine massacre. One
reason Is that witnesses-presumabl
survivors-do not dare to go to Marion
TO testify.
There are other reasons. which can
not be disclosed now but the enumera-
ton Of which satisfied this writer that
there Is nothing supine about the gov
