Mi530URL MO8 U3ES THE HEMP White Man and a Negro Hanged by Angry Citizens. LEXINGTON, Mo., Aug. 12.—Charles | Salyers, white, and Harry Gates, colored, | were taken from the County Jail here by | Saturday nights when the tournament of | a masked mob at 1:30 o’clock this morn- | ing and lynched. The men were charged | with _ killlng George W.. Johnson, a wealthy farmer, who surprised them at his henhouse, near this town, a week ago. Salyers and Gates were arrested on the day following the shooting after an ex- citing chase. Johnson was ene of the | wealthiest and most respected men in the ccmmunity, and the feeling against the two men was intense. Last night shortly after midnight armed men came to town by twos and threes, most of them masked. They massed fin- ally near the courtyard, in which the County Jall is situated. A demand upon the jailer for the prisoners meeting with refusal;"several members of the mob, who had come well prepared,. broke in the outer door and made quickly for the cells of the mutderers. It took thirty minutes to cut through the steel doors. Salyers was taken out and then Gates. ‘Without encountering any serious objec- tion the mob started with their victims for a point a half-mile south of town. There Salyers was granted permission to make a statement. He said that Gates had shpt Johnson after firing three times, and tHat when the last shot was fired Gates had hold of Johnson. Before bein killed Johnson had exchanged shots wit! the men, and Gates was found to have been shot in the right hip. Salyers’ state- ment finished, the men were quickly strung up to a tree. There they were left hanging, and the mob dispersed quietly at 2 o'clock after an hour’s work. Only one shot was fired, and that was to put out an incandescent light in front of a livery stable as the mob passed by on the way to the scene of the lynching. Salyers, alias Sacks, had lived hére for a number of years and left a family. He had a bad reputation. Gates, who was 30 years old, had served a term in the peni- tentlary for burglary committed in’ Lex- ington. NO GREAT PROFIT ON A BANK’S CIRCULATION Makes Least When Interest Is High- est and Money Most Needed. No amount of demonstration that the money invested in bonds might otherwise be loaned directly to the bank’s custom- ers, that engraving charges, express charges, circulation tax, redemption tax and premium on the bonds must be con- sldered before the profits are counted, will convince the average American citizen that banks are not especlally favored when they are permitted to issue circu- lating notes. Therefore one great step in currency reform ought-to be accomplished by the official declaration of the late Sec- retary Gage that according to the most careful computations of the Government actuaries the extreme profit to the most favorably situatel banks is less than three-fourths of 1 per cent on their note circulation. And paradoxical as it may seem to those Wwho have not figured the problem out for themselves, this maximum profit is earned by the banks in the big money centers, where currency fs plenty and interest rates are low. Thus,in communities per, cent the profit on circulation is seven- ty-hundredths of 1 per pent, shrinking to thirty-one hundreds of 1 per cent when in- terest rates raise to 8 per cent. In view of these figures it is easily seen that the main object of a banknote circulation—to supply currency when and_ where it is needed—is actually defeated by present conditions, for where the need for cur- rency is greatest the inducement to issue it is least, and where the need is least the m’d:ecement is' greatest,—New York Tri- where the prevaliling rate of interest is 4| R R RN Y Obeying the Letter of the Law. Senator Debobe of Kentucky tells a story of an episode in Bourbon County in his State. A worthless, drunken fellow, who was a common nuisance, was arrested and brought into court. He demanded a tri{ll by jury, and the court ordered that a jury be impancled. On the next day, when the court met, there were gathered in the -jury box twelve of the hardest, most disrcputable characters in the county. “What ‘does this mean?” asked the Judge. “Well,” said the Sheriff, “I knew that the prisoner was entitled to be tried by a jury of his peers. It was pretty hard work to get them, but in case any of these won't do, I have a few more hov- ering around a whisky barrel outside.”” ‘The court looked at the prisoner and at the jury. “The case is dismissed,” was all said.—New York Tribune, he MAYES" FRIENDS SWEAR FOR HIM Leave Their Cozy Cells in State Prison to Help Him.

'Lney were on the witness stand yesterday de- nying that Mayes was an associate, but admitting that he lived with them in this city and elsewhere. The farmer, Robert Lee Tally, swore yesterday that he saw Mayes assisting the other members of the gang in man- ufacturing bad money. He admitted that Hazen had promised not to prosecute him if he testified in court to what he had told Hazen on the occasion of his arrest. Convict Thomas Johnson swore that the vaiise found in Mayes' room contain- ing the counterfeit money was his own and not Mayes', and identified a shirt in the valise as his own. 3 The argument to the jury will be be- gun this morning.
