Circumstances .surrounding, the lynching of Ed Johnson, a Chatta nooga negro, by a mob In that city night before last render this one of the most Interesting cases of mob law lessness that have yet transpired In the South. fcor the act bl the Chattanooga mob was nothing less than a slap in,’ the face of the Supreme Court of the United States, the 1 , most august legal tribunal on the .face of the earth; Johnson assaulted a young white girl In a suburb of'the Tennessee city. He was tried, adjudged guilty and sentenced to be hanged yester day. But on Moqday, tho day before that set for the carrying out of the death penalty,■ the' Supreme Court granted a stay of execution. In re porting the action of the- Supreme Court,, an Associated Press dispatch from Washington states that “no rea sons were assigned for Intervention. 1 .Here Is a case which Illustrates bet tor, perhapB, than hits been Illustrated beforo, tho fact that the people of the South will not tolerate unnecessary delay In applying, tbe lnw which gov erns In cases where virtuous woman hood has been made the victim of the lust of an animal In human form. Whon such a crime Is committed, a lynching Is almost Inevitable unless the criminal manages to escape or the ofilcers of' the law prove rarely dili gent and resourceful. It nearly proved so In the Chattanooga case, frantic efforts hhvlng been made by a mob to .secure possession of Johnson before the. sheriff's posse which arrested him spirited him away. But the law triumphed for the mo ment, and the negro was accorded fair and Impartial trial. The ‘people of the community appeared to be sat isfied, and there was no hint of vio lence bo long as It nppenred that the sentence of death Imposed would be oarrlod out without delay. Then enme the Interference of the Supremo Court. In less than twelve hours from tho time the stay of exe cution was granted, Johnson's riddled body lay In a Chattanooga'street. The lynching was quickly nnd quietly ac complished by seventy-five orderly cltlzons, wlio created no disturbance nnd Indulged In no rowdyism. It was prompt and complete answer to the dictum ot the highest Judicial body which sits as tho representative of the lnw of the land. The Herald does not advocate mob law, nor doos It presume to defend lynchers, but here Is n case where we will go to the extent of confessing that we do not blame the Chattanooga •mob which reversed tho., decision of the Supreme Court of the United States night before Inst. ■Jli^ State of Tennesseo had dis charged her full duty to the negro Johnson: ,The commonwealth had promoted him from the mob which sought Ills life Immediately following the perpetration of the crime, nnd had accorded him a fair trial under tho rules of law. The verdict qf “guilty" was justified by the evidence, and tho people had a right to expect It to stand. The Supreme Court granted a stay of execution simply becuuse It was requested by an attorney represent ing the condemned negro. “No rea sons were assigned for Intervention." It was simply a move to defeat the expressed Will of a community .which had acted with more than ordinary forbearance. The merits of the case, so far as the Supreme Court was con cerned, were left for future Investiga tion. It Is Inconceivable that tho Supremo Court should yiot have known what effect its action would have, for of precedents there were scores, afld It is therefore no wild statement to do clare that the highest court under the nation’s flag was responsible for the tragedy of Monday night.
