Mess Line

The spirit of the anti-lynch bill did
not die with the filibuster. People all
over the Country who are sincerely In
favor of ending this henious crime, are
beginning to rise up against it, and as
a result we see different states passing
anti-lynch legislation
Perhaps it is better this way. Dill
ferent states have different methods
both as to the practice of lynching
and the breaking up of mob. For
instance down in Kentucky, many
years past, when the Harpe brothers
met their unhappy end, the mob was
content to cut off the head of one
and set it in the crotch of the highest
tree in the vicinity. Mississippi prob
ably leads all the states in adding ar
'tistry to summary justice, the apex we
hope was when they used blow torch
on their victims, although Louisiana
produced new wrinkle some time
since when her sons laid 'em in the
road and ran over them with tractor.
The practice of using toes, fingers,
and ears Of the victims as souvenirs,
extended from the Ohio to the Gulf,
while the far west has been more con-
servative, although whole hearted in
her efforts. Usually they place man
astride horse, the man on one end of
a rope, the limb of tree on the other,
hit the horse whack, and away they
both go, the man and the horse, al
though to different destinations.
Atlantic seaboard states, when they
have yen to return to the primitive,
usually go in for bonfires. Before they
had developed the more highly civil
. lized blood lust, they used to burn the
bodies of their victims to the accom-
paniment of dancing and yelling. H low
ever in late years, it is hardly consid-
cred fun, unless the victim is burned
alive.
Strange as it seems, burning started
In the states where Negroes feel the
safest, the New England States; it
was freedom red blooded American
took before they had even conceived
al Declaration of independence.
There are different local opinions as
tf the best method of breaking up
phobs too. Some call the National
ffGuafd, some rely only on police. II
Is said that in Texas on one occasion
when the Governor had been appealed
to, authorities sent a single ranger
When the excited sheriff met him a
the train, he asked him where hi!
comrades were. "What comrades,
asked the ranger. "You mean to say
they only sent one man down here tc
stop this mob?" asked the sheriff.
"Heil, there's only one mob ain
tfiere?" said the ranger.
1t reminds me of Henry Miller il
my home town years ago. A mob wa
just about to lynch local character
when Miller whom l knew quite well
rolled a barrel out in the street ant
gave the mob lecture on law ant
human rights. Whether it was hi
audacity, or whether it was sheer ora
tory that held them spellbound, j
worked, and while probably the higl
point in the career of the dark com
plected little cowherd, decent citizen
considered it higher one in the an
nails of law and order. They were al
mighty proud of Henry.
}Lynching will go, but for one hop
that it doesn't use the same route Ii
quor took. Never far enough ava
for US to lose sight of its shadow.
