RE-ENTHRONE THE LAW*
(Continued from another page.)
Nobles case resulted from the action
of lederal courts, and in the Allen
case on account of defenant’s escape
from prison, and the questions there;
upon arising in state and federal
courts, while in the last case from
new trials granted. In the two first
cases the delays seem to have been
sanctioned by popular sentiment
strong enough to secure commutations
of the sentences from death to life
imprisonment; and in the Flannagan
case in which insanity was the defense
the prosecution had to be suspended
on account of the mental and physical
condition of the defendant.
Of course it may be replied that if
these cases had ended before popular
indignation subsided, the defendants
would have been executed, but this
is a suggestion of brutality and not
of justice.
Another suggestion is the abolition
of jury trial and sometimes the kin
dred suggestion, that the jury he no
longer the sole arbiter of the fact, but
be aided and influenced by the judge
as in United States courts. These
suggestions, besides being objection
able on their merits, offer no solution
or relief. In a case of rape by a ne
gro upon a white woman or girl,
properly proved, a Georgia jury could
be as well trusted as any judge and
such a jury would not need the ad
vice of any judge to induce it to con
vict. If the real point, of this latter
suggestion is that there might be cases
in which the judges might force ac
quittals for rape or convictions for
lynching, the fact that with all their
influence with grand juries they can
not or do not cause bills to be found
and trials to be had in such cases,
seems fatal to the view.
Under present law the jury has only
one question to determine and that
after argument of counsel and instruc
tions of law from the court, and it
barely happe.is that a verdict of guilty
is set aside for error of the jury. On
the other hand, nearly all new trials in
criminal cases are caused by errors o
the judges. This is not said by way
ot criticism. Our judges are in the
main good men versed in the law, but
they have a multitude of questions to
decide and it is human to err on the
bench as well as elsewhere, the con
scientious judge has enough power
and responsibility already. The
change suggested would aftord the
judical demagogue an oppurtunity to
assert his self-importance and display
his spurious backbone and ad captan
dum rhetoric on the popular side, and
matters would be worse than instead
of better. Shoidd occasion arise to
stem a torrent of passion, he would
probably exercise the privilege of
leaving the question entirely to the
jury.
Our present penal system is con
structed out of condensed and seas
oned wisdom collected during cen
turies of experience and reflecton,
modified into conformity with the
principles of our self government.
Let us build the temple higher and
stronger and renovate and beautify it
but at the same time protect it from
descreation and destruction.
I will now outline the bill I men
tioned and conclude.
An Act. Entited an act to expedite
the administration of justice in
cases of rape, assault with intent
to rape, murder, arson, lynching

wicked oi races and all classes.
The troable is not in our judges.
While their salaries are too small, in
competency among them is rare and
corruption rarer, and the selection of
their successors is with the people.
Asa rule our jurors are our best citi
zens. The trouble is not in the bar.
Sometimes a lawyer may do more
than his duty to<his client to the prej
udice of public justice, but the in
stance is exceptionable. '
By the prevailance of the awful
crime referred to, we are subjected to
an ordeal from which those of other
states and countries are exempt. We
must not content ourselves, however,
with saying when they condemn us,
that we are as good as they; we must
prove that we. are better. We must
quit defending and excusing mob vio
lence and give it our unqualified con
demnation. We must quit defaming
the law and the courts and give them
our unqualified support.
That the negro is here and free and
enfranchised is not his fault, and to
hold the race entirely and individual
ly responsible for the crimes of their
most depraved is manifest injustice.
For selfish reasons if for no other they
must desire the enforcement of the
law in such cases, but when mob vio
lence prevails instead of law, we have
their acquiescence only instead of
their co operation.
Let us preach obedience to the
law from the pulpit and the platform,
in the newspapers and the schools; in
the city and village and on the farm
and above all in the home. As far as
possible let us drive out and keep out
of the state the manufacture, sale and
use of liquor, the author and promot
er of every species of crime and of
tener than otherwise the abettor of
the rape fiend and the mob. Crime
will not entirely cease, hut we will
have less of it and more of good will
among the races and among ourselves.
Progress in the great cause of law and
order will soon he followed by social
and industrial, moral and religious,
progress, and ere long the Southland
of Washington, Jefterson and Madison,
Davis, Lee and Jackson, will resume
its leadership among enlightened man
kind; not in the murder by mobs of
scores of offending savages at home,
nor in the slaughter by army and navy
of thousands of unoffending savages
in foreign lands, hut in the mainten
ance and control of that powerful but
unofficious government out forefathers
instituted to secure justice and peace
among the governed, tnd otherwise
to leave them to themselves and the
laws of God in the practice of philan
thropy and virtue and the pursuit of
temporal and eternal happiness.

“I reckon the most excitin’ race
I ever see,” observed the man with
the faded hair, after an interval of
silence, according to the Chicago
Tribune, was between two Mississippi
river steamboats. The engineers
crammed the furnaces with bacon
and everything eke in the cargoes
that would make a hot fire. The
Prairie Rose was the name of one
boat and the Minnesota Belle was
the other, but everybody knowed it
was a race between the engineers, fur
the leason that they’d had a fight in
St. Louis once. I was on the Rose,
and we was chinnin’ the passengers
on the Belle. It wasn't more’n forty
feet i-way, and the boat that got
around the big bend first we knowed
would win the race—”
“Which got there first ?” asked one
of the listeners, tired of the oratory.
“Well, the engineer of the Minne
sota Belle got there first,” rejoined
the man with the faded hair. ”Or
parts of him did. His boiler explod
'ed.”
