against the control which they assert
organised labor Is trying to obtain over
the realm of art.
The recent experience of Director of

and a movomont Is now under way to
establish one or more international or
ganisations In an effort to protect art

ing plasterers, house painters, plumb

employed on structures where the ar

MOB LAW AND ITS EFFECTS
Address of Justice Blschoff of
New York Court.
New York. Oct, il.-In an address
before the Phi Delta Phi Fraternity of
this city. Justice Blschoff- of the New
York supreme court has pointed out the
fact that the spirit which underlies mob
law confronted the patriarchs of old
in the Moaato law and Is to be found
underlying the development of theentlr
system of criminal Jurisprudence," rep
sesentlng the rebellion of passion
against orderly procedure' of the law
and tha safeguards thrown about an
accused person. The cause of lynch
Ings and other outbursts, he said, may
be epitomized In the words "the law's
delay."
"It Is true," he continued, "that there
la more or less delay in ths administra
ting of the law, which appears to pro
crastinate, so that the time elapsing
between a crime nnd Its punishment
seems at all times needlessly prolonged,
but this Is not the fault of the law or
Its administration, so much as It Is the
result of conditions which surround the
gradual evolution of our great Judicial
system.
"Tha demands upon our country are
too great tr a vys'em planned to ac
comodate sarcly half the business
nmv nresented and making no elastic
prevision for cnlagod requirements. It
Is but right and Just, god la ths admin, j
Istr&llon of criminal law the punish,
went should follow speedily, with all
due caution and protection to the ac
cused, ths accomplishment of the
crime. ..
'Tut It does not follow, because of
this defect, the delay of Justice, that
the . system is wrong, or that mob
rule had better supplant It, or that
there is Justification at any Urns for as
sassination In the name of punishment
for crime. It Is but a vole that should
te heeded by our legislature in provid
ing an clastic, flexible system for the
administration of th law, which will
meet every emergency, th measure
speedy, exact, and unerring Justice In
every rase."
Justice Blschoff described the con
dition of the negroes at th close of the
Civil war, their lack of knowledge of
19th century clvllizatlon.tbelr being left
npn an impoverished land without gov
ernment aid or supportand their strug
gles against the antipathies of the
whit race.The north he said undertook
to educate the colored people of whose
conditions and limitations they were ig
norant, with the result of a misunder
standing and bitterness. ,
"And today." he added, "It Is being
realised that th best friend of the ne
gro is the south, who can best, too,
solve the great question Involved in
this discussion."
