When the public expresses Its Indig
nation at the :ommisslort of a crime,
the accused need not appropriate to
hhr.wlf all the sentiments expressed.
In the case ot a series ot crimes or
supposed crimes which are charged to
a certain set of men. It Is not necessar
ily true that those men are regarded
with hatred or malice by the law
abiding ficeussers. It Is usually true,
however, that their offenses are re
garded as despicable, and that the clr-
cumstanc which permit and the con
ditions which foster such Infractions
of the law are thoroughly deprecated
by all good citixens. The attltutde to
ward the crmlnal or supposed criminal
may be that of Indignation, animosity,
or of pity, but against the existence
'of lawlessness and especially the com
mission of acts of violence to the per
sonallty of another, there can but ex
ist an unanimity of condemnation and
a desire for the vindication of Justice.
Such has been the motive which, has
.actuated those who have desired and
witness ?d the conviction ot Patrick J.
Lynch for the crime of shanghaiing,
technically called kidnaping. The
events of the past years since Lynch
became a character of note may
or may not have made for him en
emies, but the crimes which nave ben
laid at his door, one at least of which
has been fairly proven against him.
have become a blot upon the name of
the city in which he has lived and the
noble river upon which he has operated.
Fair-minded citizens cry out for Jus
tice and the discontinuance of such
abhorrent practices. In times past
public sentiment has not always been
fully awake on moral subjects to se
cure such a conviction. Known trans
gressions of law have been winked at
because of difficulty of obtaining evi
dence, lack of moral sentiment to back
up a prosecution, or for other reasons.
It is indeed a matter for congratu
lation that Astoria has proven a moral
growth by showing that such flagrant
crimes can no longer go unpunished In
her precincts.
The correction of such abuses rest
very largely with the people, and de
pends upon their willingness to sup
port the officers of the law In appre
hending and convicting offenders,
where there Is a strong sentiment In
favor of the guilty. No more fearless
and able men bold offices anywhere
than those who are charged with the
execution of the laws In Astoria.
Sheriff Linville Is a man who knows no
fear, who never makes a failure, and
who has achieved a wide reputation
among law-breakers as a good man to
steer clear of. The same may be sail
cf District Attorney Allen, who has
shown a moral stamina and an intelli
gent energy in the bold and fearless
discharge of his duties, which has
marked him as the right man In the
right place.

can be desired, it Is principally due to
the cllixens who shirk Jury duty, who
themselves engage In shady practices,
and who think more ot a dollar honest
or otherwise than they do of the rep
utation of their city, or the moral ot
their children. If the laws are not ob
served to the letter.
Today Is a legal holiday in Texas to
commemorate the battle of San Inclnto,
In MS, when Governor Sam Houston,
at the head ot 800 men, defeated the
Mexican army, took Santa Anna pris
oner and secured the Independence ot
the Republic of Texas. It is the an
nlversary ot the birth of .Frederick
Froebel, the German teacher, who
founded the system known as (he
"kindergarten," or the children's gard
en method of teaching. Also the
birthday .n 1S10 of George P. Gordon,
the American printing press Inventor;
of Henry W. Shaw (Josh Billings) In
ISIS, ot John Muir, the naturalist and
author. In IS3S; on this day, too, in 1S9S,
President McKinley Issued a procla
mation declaring war against Spain.
, :
"Dog eat dog" seems to be the rule
of the Balkans. The atrocities ot the
unspeakable Turk" are known of all
men, but the Bulgarians and Albanians
are apparently not better. Murder,
pillage, Incendiarism and indescribable
outrages on women and children are
practiced Impartially whenever the op
portunity offers, as the latest story of
the destruction of a Mussulman vil
lage by Bulgarians, accompanied by
frightful atrocities, unhappily attests.
"Man's Inhumanity to man" apparently
contiues ever.
"Jersey Justice" is once more Vindi
cated. Furthermore, the fact is ex
emplefied that is no respecter of per
sons, In a most emphatic way, for a
high officer of the law has been made
to feel the weight of the law. Thomas
McCarter, the attorney-general of the
state, has Just been compelled to pay
a fine of 127.50 for speeding his auto
mobile faster than the law allow.
