ANARCHY IN ACTION W hat a Confederate Veteran Said of Mob Violence Every mob is a stab at the sovereignty of the people, and a malign denial to them by force of arms of the right to the freedom of orderlv n n r a u f l l t . . . The fire bells would ring out the alarm and the streets of any of our cities would swarm with armed and indignant i>eoplc if thev were told that a gang of intruder» were com- ing to expel their chosen judges from the judgment seats, and put irresponsible and vicious men. chosen b v th e marauders, in their places. Yet that is the mission of th e m o b when it «rtiis to storm a S S u d pal . U> d « tL If men would only reflect what trea son mob law is to their homes and institutions, mobs would be well nigh impossible. Aside from this attack on government, the evils of the mob have almost boundless sweep in all the relations of life. Can any man. in the wildest flight of the brain, picture Robert E. Lee or John B. Gordon, no matter what the charge against the criminal, joining a mob to break down a jail, and taking a prisoner out to hang him ! Why not ! Because they are types of courage and honor, and justice and veneration for law. and all these cry out a- gainst such an act. — The late Judge Thomas G. Jones, of Ala bama.

"There are two things my con stituents have always expected me to be in favor of—tax reduc tion and more liberal expenditure of Government monev." No man is worthless, but some are worth less than others. Henry P. Fry (white). Presi- lent of the Anti-Fanatic league of New York, has stepped into the limelight with some interesting scenes from inside the cup of the Ku-Klux-Klan. “ After being on the inside of this movement (K. K. K.) for three months." writes Mr. Fry, “ I found that the whole proposition was a fraud and that instead of its being a fraternal order, it was a secret political con spiracy designed to control the entire lawmaking and law-enfore- ing branches of the State and . Federal governments." Mr. Fry and son is a sourthern gentleman ge of a Confederate armv officer.
