LYNCHERS READY
To Hang the Brute who Assaulted
Little Girls.
Genoa, 111., October 25. —The
people of this state are getting a
| taste of negro brutality as felt in
I the south, and the indications are
that public sentiment with regard
to lynching will undergo a change.
Ira Stebbins is in jail here, and
it is not unlikely that he may be
lynched.
A heavily armed guard ispatrol
ing the jail yard.
The sheriff has been notified of
the situation, and has been request
ed to come here at once and bring
a posse with him. Stebbins crim
inally assaulted two little girls,
; aged respectively 3 and 4 years.
The little daughter of John Hac
■ sail, a prominent man here, was
saved from her assailant just in
time, and the mother of the other
child, armed with a revolver, vig
orously effected a rescue.
The situation here is alarming,
and unless a vigorous stand is taken
by the authorities, a lynching will
become part of the history of this
city.
