With America preparing to ship large quantities of bacon and bullets to Chi na, Germany loading ten transports with horses and military supplies, at San Tranclsco. and Russia already seizing new territory, there appears to be something In the wind besides the mere rescue of the legatloners im prisoned at Pekln. JUSTICE FOR LYNCHERS. Philadelphia Times. Texas lias awakened to a sense of her honor and dignity, and set the whole South an example by convicting three men for participating In a "lynch Ingbee." They have all been sentenced to life imprisonment, and hereafter these acts of lawlessness will be de prived of their Jocose quality in Texas. The very nature of a lynching tends to prevent the law from being executed upon those who take part In It. When the victim of it Is already a prisoner, the officers charged with his restraint and protection are not only too weak and few to resist a mob, but are In most cases in passive and sometimes In active sympathy with the lynchers. The Jury of in'iuest Is drawn from the Lazy Livers are many times the cause of vaHotis diseases.

BL very men who nded In the deed, and If any of ilicm became known to the aw the trial Jury Is made up ot the very persons who are In the same case as the primmer and could easily pass from the box to the dock, so that con viction Is practically Impossible. Be sides that, the sympathy of the com munity Is with the lynchers, and ihey, generally speaking, are only the active voice of the majority, which encour ages the act and supports the perpetra tors of It. Nevertheless. In the face of those opposed conditions. Texas has se cured thrv conviction, and "more power to her arm" In like causes for the future is the encouraging comment she will hear from all aides. In a recent strong but harmful book a distinguished writer has made a plea of Justification of lynching, whose Pffes are often reform! to In the South as palliating the crime. In It Is the story of an upright man and law-abiding, who by every means at his command opposed lynching. He was about to be married when his fiancee became the vic.Im of An outrage, which In the South as elsewhere takes place with un forgivable crimes. The lover Kd the lynchers and allowed no man to aid him In putting the rope around the guilty negro's neck. Then he boldly avoed his share In the deed, and an approving people Indorsed It as a right eous act. The fault with this story Is that It begs the whole question by making It personal to every reader, who is aked In the directest terms would you. In that man's place, have done the same? The answer, having regard to the qualities of human nature must be almost invariably yes. But that reply has no bearing upon the outrage done to J'jstlco and evad?s the vital Issue concerned. The law in the South provides for the criminal's punishment and for this of fense has but a single movement, and It leads to death by execution. The ob ject of It If guilty, cannot escape, and it matters nothing to him whether It be delayed or come promptly. He has but one life and it atands forfeited. The lesson of a legal execution must always be more Impressive and salutary than the prompt Justice of a mob, and It Is partly for this reason that lynching Is a crime. It may have been some satis faction to the community to allow the hero of the story to execute with his own hand an act of vengeance, but the offense to law was a high price to pay for the satisfaction. If the law Is supported by the peo ple 'its deliberative methods will secure all the vengeance they can achieve by the wildest deeds, but if its provi sions be broken the arm of Justice la paralyzed in all its functions and a scoff is made of her. Therefore, Texas, by these convictions, has done well, and she baa answered the problem In the apologue with an emphatic No. GO EAST VIA SHORTEST AND QUICKESTLINE TO St.Pau!,DQliuh, Minneapolis, t'hica?) and All Polna East DAILT TRAINS; FAST TIME; SER VICE AND SCENERY UN EQUALED.
