THE HERRIN rTNpTNo.

Late though it was in startling, and
then only after widespread criticism Of
the deplorable affair had made it i'm
possible to longer neglect 1t, the grand
Jury sitting at Herrin. III, for the pur-
pose of placing the responsibility for the
massacre thai occurred there has gone
thoroughly into the facts and brought
indictments against those who 1t believes
were involved
The grand jury has done its duty. It
has pointed out the weakness Of those
who were supposed to act for the pro-
lection Of the entire pubic, and not one
particular faction of it and 1t has point
ed out the savage manner in which
those who had surrendered to a super
Tor force. but one acting without any
legal basis. were inhumanely treated and
shot down in such a cold FLOODED man
ner as to place a lasting blot on any
civilized community.
How the grand jury could come to any
other conclusion was beyond comprehen-
sion. 1t was an open and giaring dis
regard for law and order and one which
ticed. Southern lynchers were never
more bloodahirsty than those who par
ticipated in the Herrin affair.
But now that the grand jury has done
it's duty. what is going to follow? Are
those who have been indicted going K
be brought TO the bar OF justice and
given such punishment as their crime
calls for, or are they beyond reach AM

GREEcE sHOULD WORRY.

Probably It is the most natural thing
that Greece should feel, as the result
Of the indicated turn of events in the
near east, that It Is being left to fight
alone Just at the present time the
prospects of fighting are considerable
distance from Greek territory, but the
efforts of the allied nations have been
directed to check that and what Greece
refers to is the good chance that will
prevail for fighting after the Turks get
into Thrace,
If the Kemalists are at all concerned
about the avoidance of bloodshed they
viii sit tight where they are and con-
tinue to exert pressure upon the allies
They are assured the possession OF the
territory they seek without fighting for
it, which is more than they would have
reason to be certain of should they I'M
dertake to gain possession Of it by
force. In agreeing to yield to the
Turkish demands there is evidenced a
desire for pace and an anxiety tc
avoid splitting any more human blood
III that region.
But when the time comes that the
Turks get into Thrace. as Is now fore.
cast, well may the Greeks have fears
over what Is likely to happen The diff.
ficulty Of restraining the Turks then Il
likely to be quite as great as the task
of holding them back now And If the

tl.ET TERs TO THE EDITOR
Cannot Understand Dog Law.

Mr. Editor: Perhaps some kind reader
may explain to me what I cannot under
stand about the dog law. There IS q
dog in my neighborhood which runs
loose and has been killing lots OF my
chickens. Sometimes he eats them
right there and sometimes carries them
off. I have several witnesses to such
facts. I telephoned to the first selectTnan
for advice 1 was directed to the dog
warden who tells me to shoot the dog.
I wrote the selectman letter last SAT
urday explaining the facts to him clear
". I am still waiting for an answer.
The dog owner has been several times
notified of his dogs dcings by myself
and witnesses. He takes no notice. HIS
dog is running loose ever since then
and all I can do is to chase him or
through the medium of a little child as
am unable to go outdoors myself be-
cause of sickness. I am a city and town
taxpayer. Have not the right to be
protected and ask for compensation? Can
I, as a taxpayer, not insist that the
dog law be properly enforced? Who
is responsible for that?
1t seems very hard and unjust that
one class of people who try to obey the
laws, pay taxes and live up to the
American standard, however hard It Is
for them while others just please them
selves and do not take notice of the
| laws. There are those who steal the
| corn right in back of ones house, take
the apples from the trees and even cut
some of your buckwheat. They opep
gates to let your cattle and horses ruH
| out or your pasture and even go so far
as to poison dumb animals. Where does
| the protection come in?
| AS Secretary of Labor Davis says
'sThe board of labor and the immigra
ton office have a lot of work on hand
SO there ought to be only decent people
admitted to the country who are ready
to take the burden of citizenship OF
their shoulders and obey the laws" LIE
us hope they are successful, but will
the city and town officials lays the
duty to protect the citizens. would b,

Charity Most Needed.

Mr. Editor: While the subject Of
Christian Science is being discussed in
your paper will you allow me to make q
few comments?
Christian Science, I believe is consid-
cred a religious belief founded by 8
good woman who the public know but
little about However, that is not say
ing anything against her. A religious
belief or faith is too sacred to be ar
gued or turned into a controversy While
have not as yet met a man or woman
who could explain to me satisfactorily
the full meaning of Christian Science,
that may be because I am too dull to
comprehend its meaning, but 1 have
never known anyone who was made
| worse by practicing it. Then, why
should anyone say unkind things about
it SO long as it INJURIES no one? It's sell
dom that we find two persons who agree
on any one subject. Every church has .
different belief. They all place a differ
ent construction on the scriptural pass
ages for while some believe in a God

Day Adventist belief Is entirely differ.
emit from many other religious beliefs
So it is with many others, but 1 believe
in being tolerant, for after all no creed
is going to take US across the river, M
matter how we pray or believe. Blu,
what we need most is cIarity-a lovs
for the Golden Rule. That we should
bring into our lives every day. Then
