Old fashioned hanKlng bees are growing monotonous. Even the fiery stake la losing its charm through too frequent exhibition. It la not long since it was reported that Georgia mob bad tied a negro to a railway track to be run over by a train. A Florida mob on Thursday, took Proecta Nellis. a negro Into an open space. He was told to run, and when he ran. more than a hundred men opened nre on him. The Ocala dispatch naively says: "He was shot to pieces." This, however, was not new, any more than burning at the atage Is new. Burning was done by the In diana when In the savage state, but In the burning of the negro at Purcell, Ok., the Chickasaw Indians, who are numerous thereabouts, refused to par ticipate. A finer proof of the Indians' advancing civilization eouto not be offered than this evidence that he is now so far advanced that he refuses to revert, under strong temptation, to the barbarism of his forefathers. This leads not only to the hope, but to the confident belief, that the Indian would be equally strong to resist temptatlpn to revert to that form of barbarism, popular with his ancestors, of releasing a prisoner, with a com mand to run, and then filling his body with arrows. It is many years since Indians were guilty of such barbari ties. They would still be barbarous, as j to methods of execution, even after conviction of the most heinous crime. In the case of Preech Nells, he had not been given so much as a prelim inary examination. Charged with a double murder in the perpetration of an unspeakable crime, there can be no doubt that, even on nothing more than prima facie evidence, he would have been convicted and made to suffer the penalty of the Florida law. In that impressive way to inspire both respect and terror In the criminally minded. But for the purpose of mak lne a savage holiday, he was denied . ril and made a victim of such in humanity as always arouses hate, re- j snr! now primes, instead of i gruiuicui. - respect and dread. We trust that, in .im nil of the whites of this country will be as well civilized as all of the j Indians are now. No white man need j despair of attaining civilization wniie he has the high example of the In dian before him.

All of this clans who are not In the National Guard are In the reserve mil tt fa. Governors of the different states will be Invited to cooperate In estnb HsliltiK sixteen tactical divisions where the militia can be mobllU.'d for active duty If needed. Another prop osition Is to add something to the al lowances of the National Guard. It Is already armed by the National Gov irnment and provided with teachers from the regular army.

Dec. 4. The initia tive and recall of Judicial decisions, as amendments to the Federal Consti tution, were proposed today by Sena tor Hrisiow In resolution laid before the Senate. Senator Hristow's first resolution would permit the President to submit to popular vote at a Congressional election any measure he ha recom mended to Congress and upon which no action has been taken for six months. The second would provide thut "If the Supreme Court shall decide a law enacted by Congress Is in violation of the provisions of be Constitution of the United States, the Congress at regular sesslyn held after such decis ion, may submit the act to the voters at a regular Congressional election. I'nder each amendment It is pro vided tiiat the questions submitted I to the people must have a majority of the popular vote lu a majority of the states as a well as a majority of the Congreslonal districts of the na tion. Jn a urtef explanation, Senator Ilrls tow declared the uniendment affecting the president, would enable him to appeal from a dilatory or adverse Congress to tho people and that a president could not as an excuse for signing an undesirable measure, say that It was the best he could get from an unfriendly Congress. Senator llristow, In support of his amendment affecting decisions of tho Supreme Court, declared that It would "give to the people an opportunity to slate whether or not they desire the law, enacted ,y Congress and approv ed by the president, to stand us thy last expression of their will and Judgment." The resolutions were referred to the Judiciary committee. Discretion. A sound discretion Is not so much In dented by never funking a mistake u by never repeating It. Itovee. fOSE CITV IMPORTING CO.
