Mob Law Is Treason!


The wholesale killings at Herrin,
ILL.,, can be described only as cold
blooded, brutal. fiendish, coward!y
massacre. Those who attempt to
palliate or explain the inhuman
crime are lacking in moral sense.
The men slaughtered were en-
gagged in an employment that
was lawful, however unpopu-
lar in the immediate locality. There
was ever a question as to whether
they were violating the laws of the
miners organization. At any rate
most of the working men tied to-
gether and shot or beaten to death
after capture were ignorant of any
intended offense. - ,
The anti-lynching law pending
in Congress, opposed by mob SYM
pathizers and constitutional hair
splitters, might, if in force, have
made the authorities of the county
in which these bestial crimes were
committed, somewhat more inter-
ested in: the performance of the
duties they we're sworn and paid
to discharge. A heavy and richly
justified monetary penalty would
have been imposed upon the To-
cality il which the law has been
suspended by a perverted public
sentiment under which murder is
no crime. The claim is often made
that attacks upon lynching are
aimed at the South. In all the his
tory of Southern lynchings, partly
to be explained by deep rooted
racial prejudice, there is no chap
ter of outlawry so black as that
which has just stained the reputa-
ton Of Illinois and of America as
afand of law, order humanity and
justice.
, We think sometimes that in this
country we are far removed from
the possibility of such organized
brutality as that which reigns in
Russia. Incidents like that at
Herrin, Ill.,, have a tendency to
awaken US to the possibilities of a
CERTAIN kind Of ed q ?ca 2 and agi:
tatioq working upon the an'llnds of
ignorant and brutal men. There
are organizations and politicians
engaged from Washington and
elsewhere in sowing the seeds of
class hatred, envy and lust for
domination which, if they come to
their full fruition. will drench the
soil of this country with blood,
and the Herrin spectacle will be-
come typical of conditions through
out this country. This may seem
an alarmist statement, but anyone
who will take the trouble to look
the infammatory literature being
sent out by the train load from
Washington and other propaganda
eenters will be convinced that it is
not q far fetched PREDICTION.
Lawlessness in a republic like
ours, which laws are the handl-
work of the people acting through
their duly chosen representatives,
is treason; treason not only to
statutory and constitutional law,
but to all that America stands for.

It was most gratifying to read
Richard Colts tribute to the In
dian, but why should he attempt a
defense of that class of noble, .
''brave," kind hearted" men
who shot down and killed Indians
simply because they were In
dians'? Surely MIR. Colts from
tier experience must have taught
him that the ''kind.hearted Indian
killers'' were outlaws keeping far
enough in advance of civilization
to escape the laws clutches for
crimes committed far behind the
scenes of their villajny.
The ''kindhearted Indian killers"
were de:estable parasites, preying
wolflike on the honest pioneer set"
tiers and, Notwithstanding their
assumed bravery, they had a
cringing dread Of the courageous
law officer. That they killed each
other was their only redeeming
trait.
Can it be said that Bridger,
Fremont, Pike, Father de Smet or
Lewis and Clark, who explored
practically unknown territory from
the Mississippi to Puget sound
under the guidance of the Shos-
hone squaw Sa Ka Ka We bird

other clean, noble, selfsacrifcing
men who passed peaceful lives
with Indians, fundamentally"
killed their fellow men simply
because pure red blood flowed in
their veins? ,.- ..,. ~; ,..>-~>.,>.z .
Had Mr.. Colt lived in isolation
at any army post he would have
met with the real frontiersmen-
refined, educated gentlemen de-
spite their selfbanishment to the
UNEMPLOYED wilds, perhaps to flee
from the duplicity of fellow white
men. Such was Grizzly Bear
Tompkins, a Kentuckian who came
to Fort Rice, Dakota, in 1872,
complaining that the white men
we're swarming over the west
divide of the Teton and Alb Sa Ro-
Ka ranges, and are crowding me
out after over half a century OF
peace" Poor Grizzly also found
that the white men were squeezing
him on the east of the range, and,
turning to his dog and pony, be
said, ''Come, boys, we will have
to move north to find room to
live"
Many suns and moons have gone
west since dear old Grizzly checked
in. His left ear and bit Of scalp
had been lifted not, however, by
an Indian, bHt by an oyer frolic-
some grizzly bear, TO this day,
if the ''kindhearted Indian killers"
