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 t'u: special case. 1 1 CASTORIA.
