A 8ERIOU8 CRIME AGAINST LAW. The lynching by a mob at OadBden, Ala., of a negro charged with partici pation In a crime for which another negro had been convicted, the govern or haring commuted the death sen tence passed upon the latter to life Imprisonment, was one ot the most deplorable crimes against law and or der committed In the South In years. It was undeniably a fiendish crlms which aroused feeling In Gadsden to a high pitch. Of tho four alleged per petrators, two were convicted and legally oxecutod. The third, though sentenced to pay the death penalty, succeeded In establishing In the mind of the governor *doubt of equal guilt, and tho death sentence was com muted to life Imprisonment. It was a manifestation of popular disapproval of the action of the gov ernor when a molt attacked the Gads den jail, overpowered tho officers, se cured possession of tho fourth negro accused of participation in tlio crime anil hanged him from a convenient railroad bridge. Tills negro had not been Indicted, tho only evidence ot Ills ..... qrawn from ronrvt „„ n v.c n-nn^rnert that Gov Too-o wp.o nmlnly nrojudlcod in 'ivnr nf f’ro TV^rO whORC d«ath B*»n- tyo« wnr /*o»r*Tniitpd. The chief ev •fsuHvo nf th* 'I’tnfo fq the In^t citizen of commoowonltH to ho suspected of such a ««toto of mind His act wa and iR still to bo accopted afl proof noBltlve that doubt of guilt had been oRtabliflhed. and it wafi therefore a necullarly atrocious crime which tho Gadsden mob committed. It is not to he seriously questioned that the law’s delay has been respon sible for much of tho mob lawlessness of recent years, and for that reason It is always wise for those In authority to oxpedlte the application of justice by evory legitimate means. But the Mabama case under consideration Is without a single extenuating feature In favor of tho lynchers, who seem*, to have boon actuated solely by blind re- sontmont and unreasoning passion. From lawlessness of this character It Is but a ston to something worse, 1nst ns the successive advances have been taken which mark the develop ment, If that term may he employed, of lynch law. At first the mob did Its work quietly and without ostentation, being content to simply hang Its vic tim to the limb of a tree, first fully es- tnbllshlng the fact of his guilt. But as time passed, the formality of Inquiry Into the facts was in many cases dispensed with; barbarities of the most repulsive character were practiced; negroes wore burned at the stake to gratify the savage passions of tho lynchers, and Illegal executions occurred in the streets of cities and In broad daylight. Disregard of tho law Is bad enough, hut open defiance of the institutions which are the visible part or the law is Infinitely worse. And that Is ex actly what the act of the Gadsden mol) amounted to. It has made an unfortunate example, and the effects will bo felt for a long, long time—a much longer time, In all probability, than the lynching Itself will he re membered by the general public. Mr. Graves has bade farewell to the Atlanta News, and for the present, at least, is out of journalism. That he does not voluntarily retire need hard ly be stated. The Nows was very close to his heart, and there Is some thing pathetic In this abrupt severing of his relations with it. Those who now control the News feel thht they can dispense with Mr. Graves's ser vices; but it will not be quite the samo News. The personality of its founder was stamped upon Its pages, and while the paper may continue to prove a success as a business enter prise, It may find that It does not con tinue to enjoy that certain exclusive ness which it has been able to main tain. Let not these remarks be mis construed, for The Herald has only good wishes for Its vigorous Atlanta contemporary. May it find anotUfr Graves forthwith. Railroad earnings last year are shown by The Commercial and Finan* clay Chronicle, which has returns from six-sevenths of the mileage, to have been $152,000,000 greater than the year before, This Is an Increase on a long -series of Increases. The gross earnings last year were more than twice as great as in 1897. Last year i twice as great as in 1897. aLst year there was a marked increase over the year before in every month except February, and in eight of the months the Increase wub more than 9 per cent The city fathers have taken up the park question with the evident deter mination to dispose of it at an early date. The matter is one deserving of all the attention which it may re ceive, and The Herald hopes the Mayor and Council will be able to see their way clear to secure the pro posed tract with no more than abso lutely necessary delay. It is told of James Lick, tho eccen tric San Francisco millionaire, who founded the famous observatory bear ing his name, that when taking any one into his service he always asked tho person to plant a tree upside down — the roots In the air, the branches under ground. If there were any protest the man was at once sent iwny, Lick saying that he wanted only Tien who would obey orders strictly. Tho Gaekwar of Baroda, the Indian •otentate who has been entertaining *he Prince and Princess of Wales, pos- esses the most wonderful necklace n tho world. It Is a collar composed it five rows of 100 diamonds each, the whole set between rows of emeralds. Some of the stones are as large as walnuts and all of them are of the reatest purity.
