THE ATLANTA GEOROIAX AND NEWS. nArrnDAr, Arnrr. ts. isor. EX-GOV. NORTHENREPORTS ! CLIFFORD, THE BOY TERROR', I HE RESULTS OF HIS WORK IN 49 MORE COUNTIES I T .h e people of Georgia: Inuring »'>• recent > amass over the I I .net the people of tortf .ala* making eighty-five counties I t^hsve Visited since 1 undertook the I LrE that has engaged my time and my tfori. exclusively, for the past four I 'every county vlilted tbte Mp*mr IJSavors were heartily und unnnl- “ „.|v indorsed, except by ten adverse 2°.“; out of all the multitudes of pco- : I ha.l the honor to address. The I I.- votes Included qn* mayor, who llfd he Indorsed Tillmans vlows-us- Tillman's language. At another Sire a citizen arose and said hr be- Seed 111 lynching negroes until the I ti«- is changed. Th» third man was [■hr editor Of the county palter. He ..id he had not yet decided ns to the •find he would take. The other seven Vrd against me without giving their Lssons for their action. This shows a mast gratifying state of public opinion, ,, open!'- expressed In forty-nine ■mintles In the southern part of the Public opinion on law and or- ;,' r I, rapidly changing for the better. This Is fully attested by the record of I thr names below. In each county visited I asked for the appointment of a committee of I rsnresentatlve business men who would M-ooerate. In every needed way. with , ,i. e sfleera of the law. In preventing and suppressing lawlessness ond crime and especially criminal assaults. At every place I have spoken I have pro nounced criminal assaults the most vil lainous Iniquity known to the catn- [ | orue of crime and I urged the people i,I remove, as far as may he within their power, the conditions that make I lurh "Ullages possible. The second service I have asked the committees to render Is to aid the sheriffs In securing law-abiding citizens to form the possfe to pursue and ap prehend criminals who have outraged the law und to sec that the lawless ele ment of the community Is entirely , ex cluded from such pursuit. It Is generally known that the crowds Umt rush In pursuit of alleged crlml- Mls are composed, mainly’ of the Isw- Itn "who claim to be the peoplo ad ministering Justice by their own hands." These wild people search In hot passion, with bloody eye and mur derous Intent and hasty and violent re. lulls. When an outrage la publicly hn- pounced and the hot pursuit made known, the papers, speaking of the criminal, always feel authorized to say. "he will be lynched as soon as caught.” These crowds of the lawless overpower the Sheriff: by physical force or. more likelv, bv the number of votes they Cirrv, and our laws ore outraged by criminal procedure, a The late Judge Bleckley forcefully nld: "Nothing Is more certain than ■ that mob executions Increase the crim inal population of the state. The larger the mob and the more secure of Im munity, the more criminals are lodged In the bosom of aoclety and each man Is no less guilty than It the crime of the whole mob had been committed by himself alone. Murder Is none the less wicked because perpetrated by a crowd.” It Is sxpected that the committees, •(pointed by the law-abiding people In the respective communities, will change these conditions and keep all the methods for apprehension nnd pun ishment within the authority of the Sheriff Nelms, from the hold of - furious mob. almost In the shadow of tho home that IValker had outraged and destroyed, and. after the gallows had been prepared and the rope fas tened around the criminal's neck, hur riedly bringing him to Incarceration In the county Jail and making It possible for Judge Roan, on the evening of the day of the arrest, to call the grand Jury together nnd complete a fair and open trial of the case and pronounce sentence within four days thereafter, furnishes an Instance of marked and distinguished heroism that should be immortalized In the annals of our civi lization. Within thirty days the neck of the brute was broken, but It was broken by due process of law and not by a murderous mob. Why not have all the sheriffs In all the counties to know that public senti ment demands that all crime and vlo- Ibnce shall he punished to the extent of tho law and that all the luw-abldlng people of the community will support such Efforts to enforce the law while they positively remand the lawless and their wicked efforts forever to the rear? for these things the following com mittees will conspicuously stand In their respective localities The special attention of the people of the atate la called to the character and hlghstandlng of the men who have thus taken position for law and order In their several communities.

April 12.—A Democratic congressman who talked very warmly about the suggestion of the Georgia editor. John Temple Graves, that WII llam J. Bryan In the next Democratic national convention ahould nominate Theodore Roosevelt for president, was Representailve'James Hay. of Virginia. i!r. Hay Is earring his seventh term In the house, and la one of me leaning Democrats In congress. 'it Is the sheerest nonsense," he said of Ihe Graves suggestion. ”U Is the ubuffvdest thing in politics Phare heard, except possibly the story qf the 15.- dflO.ooo conspiracy to defeat President Roosevelt and his policies; "It Is Impossible." rontlnued Mr. Hay. ‘that any Democrat In a Democratic national convention should nominate President Roosevelt. Ills record Is anything but Democratic. His poli cies, however well meant, are not Dem ocratic, and 1 can not see how any one calling himself. a Democrat 'can ad mire, respect or commend what we understand Is the Roosevelt way of conducting the government. “Take the ship subsidy, which Roosevelt supports. There Is not a sin gle Democratic Idea In that business. If there Is a Democratic Idea left In the country. It Is opposed to the ship subsi dy nnd all other subsidies. "How does Mr. Roosevelt appeal to Democrats an a tariff reformer? If he ever was inclined In that direction It was when he wrote books as a youth, at the same time that he anathema tized Thomas Jefferson and other of our greatest Democratic statesmen. Throughout tho six yearn of the Roose velt administration he line been as un yielding a stand-patter as Speaker t'annon. Payne. Dulzall or any of the rest of them. President Roosevelt has very ostensibly made w.Tr on Hie trusts.

I would recall to them that the negro school teacher. Booker Washington, as recognized by President Roosevelt, has superior claims to consideration as an adviser thun have United Stales sena tors who happen not to agree with the president In pntronnge affairs, as nota bly In the rase of Alabama and Ohio.
