Man of Wisdom.
The following special to the
Atlanta Constitution is very re¬
freshing to Georgians who have
read the many adverse and scaih
mg criticisms of the leading pa
pers of the country upon the
burning of Sam Holt. The ed¬
itor of the Review is evidently
a man of great wisdom and
readily appreciates the enormi
ty of the crimes committed by
Holt and the effect they pro¬
duced upon the people of the
community in which they cc
E'Khart. Ind., April 2o.—(Spe
cial)—'TfiefReview, the oldest,
one of the leading and one of
the most conservative republi¬
can papers in uorthvvest India¬
na, in and editorial in to-day’s
issue, vigorously justifies the
Molt lynching in Georgia Sun¬
day. The Review says:
(( The editor confesses no
sympathy with the critics of the
mob who burned the negro in
Georgia, If ever there was
palliation for a crime, if crime
it could be called, in this case
vengeance, quick and complete
for the deed of the negro butch¬
er and ravisher, was exhaust¬
ed. A brute who would de¬
liberately murder the husband
in coll bloo l in order that he
might satisfy his lust on the
derendleas wife, is beyond the
pale of even modern barbarism
The crime was the most horrible
that can be conceived. A peo¬
ple that accepts a hell as a pun¬
ishment for the smaller sins of
humanity ought not to blame
human nature for applying the
torch to a brute that could in
cold blood be guilty of such acts.
He is worse than a wild beast,
worso than the most savage in
babitent of the most unciviliz
ed portion of the earth. In this
matter it is not a question of
but the individual crimi
and there are time3 wdieri
y )e public has more reason to
resort to violent measures to
protect itself against human
beasts than again3t wild beasts,
The review never has
nanced lynching, hut the writer
confesses a willingness to w mi
a t 1 he act of the Georgia people
