4 THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON: 7 THE EVENING STAR bas the fullest Local Circulation of any Newspaper In the World, \ and as am Advertising Mediam is werth mere than all the other papers published in Washington. ed Although some ontgivings from New Orleans have been belied by the report of the grand jury in the lynching case, general public expec- tation has been realized. The jury finds that the entire community, or six or eight thousand people fairly representing it, were concerned in the “taking off” of the Italian murderers of Chief of Police Hennessy, and therefore that the indictment of particular persons is im- practicable. The grand jury will undoubtedly Teflect the sentiment of a large majority of the people of the nation. That is to the effect that & pack of wolves such as the Mafia deserves no better fate and the legal machinery cannot be adjusted anywhere in a manner to permit them to go at large unpunished. The law was made for thé protection of the innocent, the virtu- ous, the law-abiding, and not to shield crimi- nals from justice. When the forms of law be- come forms of injustice then the community wreaks a kind of “wild justice” that may be in most cases unjustifiable, in all cases horrib! but unquestionably in some cases is excusable. ‘The deeper question of the prime causes of the outbreak might have been presented more ef- feotively if a strong writer had heid the pen, but the primordial facts are lovsely imbedded im the report and cannot escape the intelligent public. These are the deadly secret society, fattening on corrupt municipal polities, con- trolled by scheming small bosses and using the stiletto when the secret bribe fails to work, slaying the officers of the law and manipulat- fng the petty juries to secure the acquittal of the assassins—the murderous society having its origin in sluck-twisted immigration laws and evasionsof naturalization laws,in the haste of the state to admit voters, in the exigencies of politics, which work at things of evil tend- ency for seltish advantage —the inevitable re- sult of violations of common sense and political morality, the corruption of the seats of justice, the buying or frightening of juries and the failure ot ail the Means of law to realize the ends of law, and therefore the breaking down of government in its high places, and the substitution of self- preservative violence for the sanctions of con- stitational liberty. It is painfal, but if it re- veals to the entire public the necessity for immediate and radical reforms of the jury sys- tem, if it forces the enactment next winter of better jaws regulating immigration and nata- ralization, if it makes manifest the impossibil- ity of granting citizonship to freshly admitted criminals and preserving at the same time the peace, order and other rights of the com- munity, then the ordeal will not have been endured in vain. It is this aspect of the case, and not Italy's increased displeasure, that should most impress the American people. ——_ With all respect for those persons in the south who are restless under the tedching of history “‘as aha is wrote” and issued from the press, and who also insist that history for southern schools must not, nevertheless, be colorless, but be defensive, Tae Sram holds them to be mistaken. The greatest and most reliable of the ancient historians, Thucydides, was very nearly colorless in the respect of bias or prejudice in recording events that led eventually to the humilimtion of his own coun- try by one of tie contending nations in the straggle. The scientitic seuool of historieal study seeks to give to the narrative as little pic- torial eifect as consints with high literary art, | and the literary art is subordinate thronghont | to the critical in all the best works of the pres- ent day in Germany, England and America. The south is therefore mistaken if it is cor-| reetly represented by some of its leading news- papers and school teachers, who my that no history must be taught in the schools of that section except such xx is chiefly illustrative of southern facte ant defensive of southern policy in the past. Rejecting the “northern” text books as biased. they would stitute for these to them offensive works others open to the sume charge by other people. No. If “colorless” books are to be contemned, it would. be better that these anxious individuals should place in the hands of their ingenuous youth the story of their country as written by the writers of both sections. Let the young people decide | for themselves without warp or twist. swenpleenent terol ealesiaint Asspecimen of the kind of Ttalians we have | im this country who have assisted in molding nt recently, is afforded in Cion- an Italixn newspaper in New | swearing he The -ecords in Home | was never in prison. show that he speut eizht vears bebind he bare for forgery ani lar 1f such x man as this should snffer at American hands, Italy would no doubt experience several dozen throbs of “patriotic anguish.” pos + The passage of the Newfoundland coercion Bill through the committee of the whble of the British House of Lords after explanations that should bave caused it to be laid aside, is not “Swears "Tis A Bancars.— Cowper. ‘Webster uses above quotation in connection with his definition of “BARGAIN,” which, be says, isa gainful or a satisfactory transac- tion. To dispute with such an suthority as Webster dove seem rash, but thd writer's opinion is that “BARGAIN” BARGAIN—That which brings lose and gain. ‘There never yet was s bargain that wis gainful and satisfactory to all parties engaged. It’s a loss to the one, again tothe other. A BARGAINS PITIFUL STORY. ‘The better the bargain the more pitiful the story. There'ss history of woeto every one of the under- mentioned bargains.
