For this he was tried and sentenced romptly to resideat of the city of Paducah ang({to aterm of seven years. He yg aS “Prompt action in the Dinning case would prove of incalculable im- portance in the way of showing the mobs that they can not invade the homes of citizens of the state and so. cure their conviction when they repel by force their assaults. If Dinning is pardoned it will show people in the North and East that in Kentucky there is a chief executive who has the courage to that a triendless negro obtains justice, even jafter a jury failed to return a fair | verdict; that in Kentucky all citizens ‘are treated alike. WHAT THE MINISTERS THINK, Rev, John P, McFerrin, of Louis- | ville, pastor of the Methodist Episco- pal church, South, says: cvery man has a right to defead himself, no matter what color he is or in what country he lives ‘In this country, at least, the col- ored man’s rights ought to be res- pected along with the white man’ © | If the facts of the Dinning case have been reported correctly the negro was justified i) defendiny himself. he mob that surrou ded the negies hae was grossly in the wrong, no r what their motive was for so “i ng. If the negro bad done noth- Ne to make himself amenable to the law, he should have been let alone. I think that the governor would by no means go amiss in exercising his clemency in this case.’? Rev. Charles Craik, dean of Christ Church Cathedral, says: “When I heard of Dinning’s sen- tence I thought of writing acting Gov. Worthington in regard to par- doning the negro. If the act was not justifiable, there never was case of self-defense justifiable. Mob rule isa stainto the state, and is even worse when it comes to preju- dicing juries. He most certainly ought to be pardoned,” Rev. Adolph Moses, rabbi of Tem- Adas Israel, said: Dinning ought certainly to be pardoned. He was either guilty of murder in the first degree, and ought to have been dealt with according! or he ought to have been cleared. As it stands, the acting Governor ght to exercise his clemency, If |Dinuing had been a white man he would have been cleared on the evi- dence without question. The jury had no right to take in consideration the past character of the man. If he had done nothing which made bim liable to the law he bad done nothing that justified a mob attacking bim in lis own house. Hence he had a right to defend himself. PADUCAH ARCHITECT. B.. B.
