JtJSTtCE MAY YET REIGN IN
 HERRlN

It has remained for a grand Jury to give first promise of enforcing real justice for the Herrin massacre. Not only have PA indictments, charging murder, conspiracy to commit murder rioting and assault, been returned put the jury in it's verdict unmerclfully con demn the authorities for the supine surrender to the mob which caused two score of deaths under conditions almost unconceivabie in a civilized country. "The atrocities and crueltles of the murders are beyond words to describe" the jury reported. "A mop is cowardly but the savagery oi thls mob in it's relentless brutality IS al most unbelievable. The indlgnltles heaped upon the dead did not end un- til their bodies were inferred Tn un- known graves" It is significant that the jury assigned as one of the causes of the riot a telegram sent by the president of the United Mine workers declaring union men justified ln treat ing this crowd as outlaws and in view ing it's members in the same light as they do any other common strlkepreah er." When the horror was over, MT. Lewis attempted to minimize the ef- feet of his telegram, which was clear ly provocative, and it was not until President Harding, in message to congress, urged definite action in deal ing with the Herrin affair that posi- tive action was taken. The crime IS one which never can be atoned, one that shames a great people, but it is encouraging at least to observe that the district where the horror had it's scene has awakened ito it's responsl- bilities to demand justice to the living and to the dead.

THE BOOZE NOISE
(Eastland (Texas) News)

 Many people are of the opinion that the American people talk of nothing but booze, spending their daylight hours figuring how to get some Of the old stuff," and their evenings drinking it.
 The bootlegging business as at pre- sent constituted is, of course, dis grace to the nation. But those critics of the prohibition law who believe that all the deceit, the contempt for law and the serious results which fol- low the drinking of bootleg booze, are due solely to prohibition will find, if they look bit, still larger number of people who disagree with them.
 The spirit of lawlessness was grow ing before the days of the Volstead Act. People with self-respect, with law abiding tendencies and reasonable sense of dignity of citizenship, do not disobey this law any more than they did any previous ones. There are thousands and thousands of homes where the only difference since the prohibition law went into effect, is the substitution on the shelf of the medi- cine closet, of the two-ounce bottle of aromatic spirits of amonia for the four ounce bottle of brandy or whis- key which used to stand there, year on end, used only in serious emergency and then measured only by the table spoonful
