No 48 S il A J 5 8 w??? ho mm A Brutal Crime Avenged in a Brutal Manner. The Law's Delay Is Clearly Responsi ble for (he Enforcement of Mob Law in Delaware. At "Wilmington, Delaware, on Mon day night, because he ravished and murdered a 17-year old school girl, named Miss Helen Bishop, on the Wednesday previous, a big, black brutal negro, named George P. White, was burned at the stake, in the pres ence of 4000 people. The negro had been arrested and an effort made to have a speedy trial of the case. It seems that the judge was a man of politics, and politics controlled his action and he put off the trial of the case to next Septem ber, after the negro had made the following confession: I was sent by Mr. Woodward to the cornfield to try some corn. I saw Mr. Woodward's daughter, and intended to assault her, but a couple of men came along and I did not disturb her. Tuen 1 saw the Bishop girl and I followed her I seized Jier and asked her if she had any money she would give me to let her go. She gave nie 05 cents. Then I again seized her, and she cried, ""Please I don't hurt me." I choked her and ac complish 1 my purpose. Then I asked her if she was going to tell on me She said she was. I gave her a hack in the throat with my knife and asked again if she was going to inform on me. She said she was, and then I cut her throat twice again and left her. After that 1 went back to Mr. Woodward and told bim there was no good corn down there, and he sent me somewhere else. I went back at once, but soon left. Then I went "back to the house and put on a white hat instead of the cap I had worn. After the Judge refused to grant a speedy trial there was discontent, and the people talked of the hollow mockery of law; and that when the laws ceased to be enforced, "the peo ple not having the law" enforced "are a law unto themselves." This was the position taken by a minister, who, while he advocated law, yet so wrought up his congregation that they took part in the h-nching. The brother ought to have been just a little more heroic and openly advo cated, if he so honestly believed, whatever he hinted at. The Presbyterian church of Wil mington of which the Rev. Rdbert A. Elwood was pastor, was crowded to its utmost capacity, and Sunday night the reverend gentleman took his text from Corinthians v:13: "Therefore, put away from among ourselves that wicked person." In referring to a speedy trial for the negro, Rev. Mr. Elwood said: "I call your spicial attention to that part of the text found in the constitu tion in which it says: "In all criminal prosecutions the accused shall enjoy the right to a seedy and public trial." "On the day of this terrible1 crime the officers arrested a 'man supposed to guilty. He was taken before a magis trate and held without hail. Tonight he is in jail, with armed guards parading about fur his protection, wahing for the middle of September. Is that Seedy? Is it even constitutional? "Oh honorable Judges, call., the court, establish a precedent, and the girls of this state, the wives of the homes and the mothers of "tout fireside and our be loved asters, will not. be '"sorry,, and neither will you. "And, honorable Judges, ifyou do not hear and heed these appeals, if that prisoner should lie t.iken out and lynch ed, then let mc say to you with a full realization of the responsibility of my words, ewn as Nathan said to King David of old, after liissoldiers had killed Uriah: "Thou art the man." There sponsibility for lj-nching would be yours for delaying the execution of the law. "Should the murderer of Miss Bishop be lynched? Yes, but only under one condition, and that is this: If his trial shall be delayed until Septeinlier, and then, though he be proved guilty, through some technicality of the law or any undue influence upon either Judge or Jury, he be not given capital punish ment, then the citizens of the state should arise in their might and execute the criminal and thus uphold the majesty of the law." On llonday night a mob of 500 persons attacked' the workhouse where White was imprisoned. The guards fired on the lynchers and one young man was killed, but the mob went on with the work in hand. One man shot out all the lights and then heavy sledge hammers were brought into play and doors were smashed and the negro taken to the place of execution and cremation. The negro was .taken to the spot where he com mitted the fiendish crine and the de tails as;told by the Associated Press are as follows: "When White found that his case was lopcle h b '. confessed to having commit ' ed the deed and grayed fervently to God to forgive his sins. i While White was praying and con- j fessing the crowd was struggling to form a circle, and some men began splitting I rails with which to burn the wretch. From 5000 to G0O0 ersons surged back and forth, crowding and pushing to gain good positions from which to see the burning. When everything- seemed about ready a man on horseback, who said his homo was in Kentucky, rode to a near-by farm house for more straw. The straw was pulhd around the stake and White was brought into the circle. His nerve seemed good and he held his head up while he addressed the crowd. He, made another confession, and appealed ' to God for mercy. Ho was then! fastened to the the stake and the torch ' wa applied to the straw. ! The tlames lenped up and licked the man's hare hands. He was held erect by one of the lynchers until his clothing . was burning fairly, when he wsu pushed into the bed of tire. He rolled about and his contortions were terrible, but he j made no sound. Suddenly the roes on ! his legs parted and he sprang from the i tire and started to run. A man struck , him in the he id with a piece of feme rail and knocked him down. Willing ( hands threw him again into the flames. ' lie rolled out several times, but was j promptly returned. While this was go ing on, shouts, cheers and gibs went up j from the crowd. j When the i egro had ceased to show J signs of life, the body was placed on its back and fuel was piled upon it and a roaring fira was soon consuming it. It was about 2 o'clock when the crowd be gan to disperse. At noon today Deputy Coroner Kil more went to the scene of the lynching for the purpoj-e of securing the remains of the negro in order to go through the legal form of holding an inquest, hut, af fording to the story of those who left the place in hour previous, there was little possibility of his finding anything sub stantial, as the relic-hnntera had made off with the pieces of bones that were left, and the Coroner had nothing to hold an inquest on." The horrible details are sickening, and while the death of the negro was merited, yet the scene and effect up on the mob was most deplorable. It will be seen from a perusal of the above that the white race is the same all over the United JStates; and that notice is everywhere being served on negro rapists that their crime will be avenged at the stake. The Judge of that county was directly responsi ble for the execution of the negro, because notice had been duly served on him, by the people, that a speedy trial was demanded. Chamberlain on Oregon. In response to a communication from the Ohio Valley Manufacturer asking Governor Chamberlain's views uon the business situation and outlook in this state, the Governor yesterday answered the questions in the order of their ask ing as follows: "Oregon is prosperous and prospering. Her crops of all kinds h.ive been abun dant during the past two years. Her mining interests are rapidly developing. Manufacturing enterprises are springing up in our midst, and there is a steady Influx of immigration which protnies well for the tuture. "I have every reason to believe that our state will be benefited by the devel opments of the coming year. Pros jiects at present are most flattering in every field of industry, and I can Eee nothing now that will tend to retard the growth of our state and the prosper ity of our jHtople. 'The coming presidential campaign, 'tro matter what its result may be, will not have any appreciable effect iion the business conditions of this state. I am of the number of those who believe the inevitable laws of pupply and de mand regulate the growth ami develop ment of a state or country rather than the personality of the individual who happens to be a candidate for president orlhe qifeMibnsjhat enter into the campaign.'-' . A New Air Ship. M. Saiitos-Diimout made his first ap pearance Tu. sl.iy i i airship No. 9 over the center of Paris. He started from Long Champs', goiiT- in the direction of the Place ile I'Ktoilt. He executed a number of skillful maneuvers over the Place de l'Ktoile, made a lour of the Arc de Trfomphe and , turning down the Champs Klysse, biought his airship down at the door of his house. Later he returned to long Champs. There was little wind. The ship maintained an altitude of about 100 feet, and answered her helm perfectly. "No. "J" is the smallest airship Santos Dumont has yet constructed. She measures about &500 cubic feet, has a three-horsepower en Hine and resembles an elongated egg.

King Peter I of Servia, yesterday entered Belgrade, the capital, and was duly acknowledged to be the new king, in the cathedral, by the Metro politan, or Archbishop, of the Greek church, which is the State religion of Servia. Ile was met at the depot, previ ously, by the cold-blooded murderers of King Alexander and Queen Draga, and the only nation represented at the religious ceremony at the cathe dral or afterwards, at the palace, was Russia, whose Ambassador gave his roval nibs the clad hand. The sol diers and populace had been thorough ly schooled to shout "God save the kingf "Long live the kingF' and other clap-trap exclamations, and the little function was over and the king who plotted for the throne, and the assassins entered into a conference of state. The United States. England. Ger many, France. Italy, Austria and all other governments had sent sjiecial instructions to their Ambassadors to either leave the country or the capi tal previous to the king's arrival in Belgrade, The reason for this is to give the new king a chance to deter mine what he will do to the murder ers and to absolve himself from the crime, and to see if the new king is to be the tool of Russia. Of course that is how the affair stands in diplo matic status; but the real meaning of the absence of the foreign represent atives, placed in cold words of the English language, indicates that the various governments stand appalled at the crime, and uplift their hands against the governments of Servia and Russia and their rulers, and de nounce them as black-hearted, cold blooded murderers. Many of the read ers of the Plai.ndealek know but little about the true nature of the civilization of the central portion of Southern Europe, where a score of governments exist and languages are spoken in a section of country about the size of Oregon, and like Oregon in climate, scenery and topography. In religious persuasion the various peoples are Mohammedan, Armenian and Roman Catholic, but they are re ligious in name only and are actually well, the civilization and religion of the tenderloin district of Seattle is to be commended in comparison- -and for rulers the head gamblers and bums of Seattle are gentlemen com pared to such rulers of such two-bit governments, as the records of massa cres of Christians, Jews and Moham medans will testify. The country is indeed beautiful; in fact, it is the beauty spot of Europe, but ever since the power of the Greek nation was broken by Rome, and Rome, by the advancing hordes of the Turks and their allied forces, it has been a fes tering sore and a cess-pool of cor ruption, so far as civilization and good government is concerned, and banditti, kings and people have come and gone in rapid succession for the past thousand years. The next twen ty-five years, however, will witness a remarkable change in government, for Russia will undoubtedly force her government from the North over the entire peninsula bounded by the Adri atic, Mediterranean and iEgean seas, and the murder of the late Servian king and queen and the putting of Peter on the throne is only a part of the Russian plan. Free Seed in Kansas. Governor Bailey of Kansas will call a sjiecial session of the Legislature and Senator F. l. Smith will introduce a Hood- relief measure in the Senate, fol lowing the lines of the precedent estab lished in 1801, when an appropriation was made to furnish seed for the settlers in Northwest Kansas who has lost their all by drouth. Ho would require those to whom money is supplied to give a note therefor, without interest, duo on October 1, 11RH, and when it is collected the money Hhall Ikj returned to the State Treasury. This plan will require a half-mill levy to meet the appropria lion, ii woum mean lo tlie average taxpayers over the state a tax of -10 or OU cents. An Aden dispatch to tho Daily Dis patch says it is reported there that Gen eral Manning, commanding tho Somali laud expedition ngainst the Mad Mullal and Colonel Cobbe, who it was fearet 11 1 "V nau oecn cm on near Lamot, nave sue cecded in joining their forcc9 nnd have reached Bohotle in safety. ilpuc. MfiTPc, On Monday, the Pope of Koine made seven now cardinals. They will receive their red hats totVpy, Thursday. On Sunday, at Seattle, a man shot and killed his wife. Shu had applied for a divorce and that was the cause of the homicide. The charge that army ollicers looted buildings in Manilla at the time of its surrender has lioen received and investi gation ordered. A half-cocked detective dropped his revolver and it went off and this gave rise to the rt-iMirt that a crank had at tempted to murder the Czar of Russia. A councilman of the city of Scrantou, Pa., is under arrest for soliciting a bribe to pass a bill. The strange part : about tlie business is Unit tlie bribe was not paid. I'y rending account of the Yakima Valley prosperity we are led to believe that the farmers there are hi dog gnu lazy that they allow the vine to e.ir themselves out dragging the pumpkins over the ground to pulverize the soil. Forty-two candidates pas.-ol the men-' tal examination at Annajioli, Monday, I fur admission to the Naval Academy. ! Among them was William K. Pore, of Oregon. The shipping tratlic at Cienfuegi" is tied up by a strike of lighterman for higher wages. Heavy rains have over come some sections of the country. The cessation of cane grinding is everywhere complete. It seems that the various companies building war sliiiis, for the government ,re in a combine and that thev are try- ig to beat, not only tbe persons and tirms fun isliiug part of the material. I... a .1... -- i ,!. .: List Sunday at Oakland, Calif., a self confessed niurderei was feared in n his cell by a negro holiness woman of the Salvation armv until be went in to spasms. She held up fire and brim- tone to such an extent that the mur derer fairly sizzled in it. Reports from the West of Ireland, Lancashire and other points, state that thousands of acres of ttotatoes have been ruined by the the present froj-t and rain. It is feared that the failure of the Irish potato crop will entail much hardship on the peasants. When the House of Commons went nto committee Monday on the budget bill, Henry Chaplin, Conservative, lormer president of the Board of Agri culture, moved tbe rejection of the clause providing for the rejteal of the grain tas. After a protracted discuss ion tbe motion was defeated, -41(1 to 32. Frank V. Hymen, former deputy state grain insH'ctor, was in Seattle, Tues-day, and stated that the wheat crop in Hast en! Washington this year will lie away below the average. The trouble is the lroutli, and in some sections Mr. Hy men says the crops will tie an almost total failuru. The acreage this year is heavier than ever lieforu but the yield will not nearly be so larce as last. The Ziegler Polar expedition sailed Tuesday fron Trondhjem, Norway, on the steamer whaler America for Franz Joseflund, where the American will pass tbe Winter and whence tho oxixilitious will lie sent out with dog sledges.
