We might as well investigate English affairs in india, her Whitechapel murderers, her Jack the Rip- per’s slashings, the Maybrick trial and her alleged injustice and cruelty to this woman, her rapacious colonial policy in Africa and the degrading effects upon the Chinese re< sulting from her opium war. H What do they propose to do, in case they find that the law is not administered here according to their ideas? Declare war against us, or open the vials of thelr wrath upon our heads? What information do they seek? Do they want to know that the white people in the south have lynched negroes whose miserable lusts led them to the commission of the black crime of rape upon white women? If so, they need not investigate, for such is the fact. Do they desire to know that this has been done by infuriated communities for the pro- tection of their white women, and to save the victims of these fiends from the humili- ation of testifying in courts? If so, this is the fact. Do they want to know whether there was any doubt as to the guilt of the men lynched? If so, for the satisfaction of their yearning souls, they could have ascertained without encountering the perils of a sea trip that their guilt was clear in every in- stance. If they had desired to learn whether these lynchings were permitted or countenanced by the civil authorities, they could have learned through the regular channels of cor- respondence that in every case the civil authorities were either without knowledge or were overpowered. In Virginia, the authorities in every case have asserted all their power to suppress the lynching spirit, and within the last few months I have pro- tected from violence,with military, at heavy expense to the state, three negroes, who were charged with outraging white women. They had fair trials, were convicted and executed. While lynch law is to be condemned, and every effort has been and will be made to suppress it in the south without the advice of tl would-be philanthropists, who have taken so much upon themselves, lynchings will surely cease whén the crime of rape ceases. ‘These sympathetic Englishmen might find missionary work among the megroes of the south, in warning them against the consequences of the forcible @fatification of their devilish lusts, CHARLES T. O’FERRALL, Governor of Virginia. Gov. Northen’s Views. In reply to a similar query in regard to the English lynching committee, Gov. Northen wired the following reply: “Say to the ‘English committee’ who have come to this country ‘to invest'gate and denounce lynchings in tl:e souih,’ that @ received their information from itrrespon- sible sources, and that thé English people have declined and refused to be properly. informed about our laws and the conduct of our government. The English papers, ‘to my knowledge, have declined time and again to publish statements made to then in defense of the south by Englishmea who are now residents of the south. Under these conditions, we do not wan: any fur- ther outside hypoc: cant “pon false ideas of our government. The people of this state are quite able to administer their own affairs, and they are doing it in full justice to the negro, as our Jaws and our conduct will attest. “We have eady endured more outside interference in our local matters than we will submissively tolerate in the future. “Let these kindly disposed Englishmen return to their own country and prevent by law the inhuman sale of virtuous girls to lustful men in high places; to steal their goid; to prevent bread and labor riots and strikes, which are wholly unknown to the people of the south; feed and give employment to the poor, as do the people of my section; give to the oppressed Irishman the rights humanity demands; and when they shall have pulled the beam out of their own eyes, then they may, with better grace, appoint themselves a’ com- mittee to hunt for the mote that may be in our eyes. “While we have irregularities at the south, and negroes are sometimes lynched, they are never slaughtered by wholesale, as Englishmen sometimes destroy them. “I send you by mail the law and record of my state on these matters, and I chal- lenge not only the English committee on lynchings at the south, but the civilized world to show a better. Why come before an investigation to ‘denounce’ the south just prior to corgressional election, when we have just had a negro lynched in Kansas April 2, another in Ohio on the Sabbath, April 15, and when white Poles and Hun- garians have recently been brutally butch- ered in Michigan and Pennsylvania, and negroes run out of Franklin Park, N. J., in herds. We challenge investigation by all persoas who have the right to investi- gate these charges, but any attempt upon the part of Englishmen, tainted with their own national crimes, to arraign us for trial must be considered as a gross impertinence, “W. J. NORTHEN. Governor of Georgia.” Gov. MeConnell’s Reply. Gov. McConnell of Idaho sent the follow- ing dispatch in reply to the query regard- ing the English lynching committee: “In reply I beg leave to say that as the President seems to be in touch with the English people on the tariff and coinage questions, apparently taking his cue from that astute nation, it may be possible that the committee to which you refer is coming here on his invitation, or that of the Sec- retary of State. In that case courtesy would impel me to withhold my opinion, which might be offensive to the distin- guished visitors.” Gov. Tillman Polite. Gov. Tillman Fas wired the following to a New York paper: “In reply to your telegram of this date, would say the Englishmen are welcome to South Carolina, and to learn the truth. They can’t investigate us from New York. I wilt afford them every facility to get at facts. B. R. TILLMAN, “Governor of South Carolina.” Advised to Go Home. Governor Fishback of Arkansas sent the following reply: “That England, a foreign country, and one which pays less than one-third as much morey per capita for the education of its people as the states pay, should assume the role of a missionary to teach us cur duty, can but excite ridicule as well as resent- ment. If its committee is really sincere in its efforts to suppress lynching, {t must be sadly wanting in common sense not to have learned this much of human nature. “My advice to the committee, if it fs in- deed in earnest and honest, is to go hom “WILLIAM FISHBAC! Other governors responded as follows: Gov. Altgeld. Answering your telegram, I will say there are outrages committed in the south in violation of law, and there are out- reges committed in Ireland in the name of the law. Possibly the English commit- tee can do some good in the south. If it does, then the southern people should re- turn the compliment and send a commit- tee to Ireland to stop the outrages there. JOHN P, ALTGELD, Governor of Illinois. Gov. McCorkle. I regard the sending of an English com- mittee as a piece of intermeddling with our affairs not to be excused. The south is always, in a proper case, ready and will- ing to give full hearing of its affairs to a competent tribunal, but certainly it not regard an Englishg committee in that Nght. 3 McCOR:!

Go Stone. The coming of the ‘English committee, of whjch you speak, td investigate lynch- ings in the United States, is an exhibl- tion of superb chéek, but I am sure I do rot object if the cémmittee shall be guided by a genuine desire to know and tell the truth, W.

We ate amply able in this grand country to take care of ourselves. ROBERT J. REYNOLDS, Governor of Delaware. Gov. Matthews. The visit of the English committee to in- vestigate and denounce southern lynching is certainly a remarkable and singular pro- cedure. It should be regarded 1s a med- dlesome interferet.ce, wholly unwarranted and not deserving of even courteous or tolerant treatment by our people. It is a good opportunity to let England or other countrics understand that we can and will manage our internal affairs without inter- ference on their part. CLAUDE MATTHEWS, Governor of Indiana. Gov. Sheldon. 5 We have no need for English commit- tees in this country when the purpose is to give peculiar emphasis to the English idea of English superiority. We deprecate lynch- ings. Punishment, for crime does not re- quire such means.” We can, however, take care of our own affairs without the aid of English pharisees. If I were the governor of a state which they propose to investi- gate they would get scant courtgsy. . H. SHELDON, Governor of South Dakota. Gov. Shortridge. Lynching is wrong under all cireum- stances in any country, north or south. The English had better attend to their own business. America will not tolerate for- eigners meddiing with our home affairs. E. C. D, SHORTRIDGE, Governor of North Dakota. Gov. Pennoyer. ‘The English are running the present na- tional administration as to its financial policy, and are thus emboldened to further tmpudence. It is all wrong, but just now the English appear to be running our gov- ment. SYLVESTER PENNOYER, Governor of Oregon. Gove West. ‘The coming of the English committee for the purpose named is presumptuous ef- frongery. We are fully capable of manag- irg our own affairs without interference from any quarter, and are entirely willing to permit full occupation to our English cousins in attending to their own business. it. I heartily commend the energetic CALEB W. WEST, ) Governor of Utah. +e LATE SPORTING NEWS MR. SALISBURY }RULED OFF. Charged With Tiki His Mare From Fleetwood Without Permission. . The California turfnjan, Monroe Salis- bury, was yesterday ‘expelled from the trotting turf by the judges of the post- poned 2.16 race, which: brought the grand circuit trotting meeting in New York to a close. The offense'was Mr. Salisbury’s re- moval of the trotting mare Expressive from the Fleetwood. track, which, it is charged, was done. without permission of the judges. Expressive started in the 2.16-class race, which was begun on Friday last and com- pleted yesterday. The mare was heavily backed as a favorite. Strontia won the first heat and Judge Austin the second. When Expressive was taken away Saturday night to fill an engagement at Terre Haute her backers were left in the lurch, as the bets stood just the same as if the mare was on hand to trot it out, and thousands of dol- lars were thus lost. It was too wet to race on Saturday, and an effort for compromise was made by which the money could be divided and the race declared aff. Everybody agreed to this except the owner of Judge Austin, which horse won the race yesterday. Judge Austin fairly out trotted Roseleaf and the others in both heats, taking a new record of 2.12 1-4. Mr. Salisbury controls the prospective queen of the turf Alix, 2.05 1-4, who is to trot at Terre Haute this week. He also owns Azots, 2.00 1-2; Directly, 2.10 1-4, and other famous performers.
