THl ALBANY DaLy HERALD: WEbffE8DAY FEBRUARY 14, 1906.
A 8ERIOU8 CRIME AGAINST LAW.
The lynching by a mob at OadBden,
Ala., of a negro charged with partici
pation In a crime for which another
negro had been convicted, the govern
or haring commuted the death sen
tence passed upon the latter to life
Imprisonment, was one ot the most
deplorable crimes against law and or
der committed In the South In years.
It was undeniably a fiendish crlms
which aroused feeling In Gadsden to
a high pitch. Of tho four alleged per
petrators, two were convicted and
legally oxecutod. The third, though
sentenced to pay the death penalty,
succeeded In establishing In the mind
of the governor *doubt of equal guilt,
and tho death sentence was com
muted to life Imprisonment.
It was a manifestation of popular
disapproval of the action of the gov
ernor when a molt attacked the Gads
den jail, overpowered tho officers, se
cured possession of tho fourth negro
accused of participation in tlio crime
anil hanged him from a convenient
railroad bridge. Tills negro had not
been Indicted, tho only evidence ot Ills
..... qrawn from
ronrvt
„„ n v.c n-nn^rnert that Gov
Too-o wp.o nmlnly nrojudlcod in
'ivnr nf f’ro TV^rO whORC d«ath B*»n-
tyo« wnr /*o»r*Tniitpd. The chief ev
•fsuHvo nf th* 'I’tnfo fq the In^t citizen
of commoowonltH to ho suspected
of such a ««toto of mind His act wa
and iR still to bo accopted afl proof
noBltlve that doubt of guilt had been
oRtabliflhed. and it wafi therefore a
necullarly atrocious crime which tho
Gadsden mob committed.
It is not to he seriously questioned
that the law’s delay has been respon
sible for much of tho mob lawlessness
of recent years, and for that reason It
is always wise for those In authority
to oxpedlte the application of justice
by evory legitimate means. But the
Mabama case under consideration Is
without a single extenuating feature
In favor of tho lynchers, who seem*, to
have boon actuated solely by blind re-
sontmont and unreasoning passion.
From lawlessness of this character
It Is but a ston to something worse,
1nst ns the successive advances have
been taken which mark the develop
ment, If that term may he employed,
of lynch law. At first the mob did Its
work quietly and without ostentation,
being content to simply hang Its vic
tim to the limb of a tree, first fully es-
tnbllshlng the fact of his guilt.
But as time passed, the formality of
Inquiry Into the facts was in many
cases dispensed with; barbarities of
the most repulsive character were
practiced; negroes wore burned at the
stake to gratify the savage passions
of tho lynchers, and Illegal executions
occurred in the streets of cities and
In broad daylight.
Disregard of tho law Is bad enough,
hut open defiance of the institutions
which are the visible part or the law
is Infinitely worse. And that Is ex
actly what the act of the Gadsden
mol) amounted to. It has made an
unfortunate example, and the effects
will bo felt for a long, long time—a
much longer time, In all probability,
than the lynching Itself will he re
membered by the general public.
Mr. Graves has bade farewell to the
Atlanta News, and for the present, at
least, is out of journalism. That he
does not voluntarily retire need hard
ly be stated. The Nows was very
close to his heart, and there Is some
thing pathetic In this abrupt severing
of his relations with it. Those who
now control the News feel thht they
can dispense with Mr. Graves's ser
vices; but it will not be quite the
samo News. The personality of its
founder was stamped upon Its pages,
and while the paper may continue to
prove a success as a business enter
prise, It may find that It does not con
tinue to enjoy that certain exclusive
ness which it has been able to main
tain. Let not these remarks be mis
construed, for The Herald has only
good wishes for Its vigorous Atlanta
contemporary. May it find anotUfr
Graves forthwith.
Railroad earnings last year are
shown by The Commercial and Finan*
clay Chronicle, which has returns from
six-sevenths of the mileage, to have
been $152,000,000 greater than the
year before, This Is an Increase on a
long -series of Increases. The gross
earnings last year were more than
twice as great as in 1897. Last year
i
twice as great as in 1897. aLst year
there was a marked increase over the
year before in every month except
February, and in eight of the months
the Increase wub more than 9 per cent
The city fathers have taken up the
park question with the evident deter
mination to dispose of it at an early
date. The matter is one deserving of
all the attention which it may re
ceive, and The Herald hopes the
Mayor and Council will be able to see
their way clear to secure the pro
posed tract with no more than abso
lutely necessary delay.
It is told of James Lick, tho eccen
tric San Francisco millionaire, who
founded the famous observatory bear
ing his name, that when taking any
one into his service he always asked
tho person to plant a tree upside
down — the roots In the air, the
branches under ground. If there were
any protest the man was at once sent
iwny, Lick saying that he wanted only
Tien who would obey orders strictly.
Tho Gaekwar of Baroda, the Indian
•otentate who has been entertaining
*he Prince and Princess of Wales, pos-
esses the most wonderful necklace
n tho world. It Is a collar composed
it five rows of 100 diamonds each, the
whole set between rows of emeralds.
Some of the stones are as large as
walnuts and all of them are of the
reatest purity.
