JUDGE LYNCH’S COURT as In this presidential year, when the politicians of every 74 party are secking office, we shall doubtless hear much of the ‘ | words “law” and “right” and “justice, ay Doubtless some of our campaign orators will quote-—as a they often do—a national document which is extremely fash t ; ionable in campaign years, and which says: “All men are en 2 dowed with certain inalienable rights—among these are life | liberty and the pursuit of happiness.” i And yet— j ‘+2 0m i 4 About ten days ago, in the capital city of one of the great est of the states, a citizen living under this very constitution met death in this manner. The man’s name was Wm. Donigan, For many years he had made a living for himself and his wife and children by} mending shoes in a humble shop two blocks from the state} house of Illinois. Saturday night he was at work as was his custom. Sud- j denly a crowd surrounded his little place of business, It set fire to the building, and the man, choking in the smoke, fled to the street. There he was stoned, and as he staggered he was seized by the men who made up this mob. Next Wm. Donigan’s throat was cut. A rope was then run through the wound, and the victim bound to a tree. o.@ ¢ ¢ © What was the offense of this feeble, gray-haired man of 80 that he should be driven from his shoemaker’s bench and tor tured? He was a negro; and in the city where he, a simple, inof- fensive man, had lived for years, another negro whom he did} not know, and perhaps had never seen, had been accused of as- sault against a woman. Seventy-one years ago, in this same Springfield, Ill, then a little western frontier town, a young men's lyceum used to meet on winter evenings to discuss public questions. On Jan, 27, 1837, the topic for the evening's discussion wedi “The Perpetuation of Our Political Institutions.” At Vicksburg, a few months before, a mob had lynched a} number of white men, and in St. Louis, a few weeks before, a negro, about to be executed for murder, was seized by a mol | dragged through the streets and lynched The young men of the Springfield lyceum on this particu lar evening discussed these matters. The principal speech of the evening was made by an awk ward, rawboned young man who had recently come to the lit-/ tle town, and who had only that year been admitted to the bar This young man said, among other interesting things, that | evening: “The innocent, those who have ever set their faces against violations of law in every shape, alike with the guilty, fall vic-| tims to the ravages of mob law; and thus it goes on, step by! step, till all the walls erected for the defense of the persons and | property of individuals, are trodden down and disregarded. “By the perpetrators of such acts going unpunished, the lawless in spirit are encouraged to become lawless in practice; and, having been used to no restraint but dread of punishment, | they thus become absolutely unrestrained. “By the operation of the mobocratic spirit, the strongest | bulwark of any government, and particularly of those consti- tuted like ours, may be effectually broken down and destroyed —I mean the attachment of the people. “All the armies of Europe, Asia and Africa, combined with all the treasure of the earth (our own excepted) in their mili-| tary chest, with a Bonaparte for a commander, could not by force take a drink from the Ohio or make a track on the Blue Ridge in a trial of a thousand years. “If danger ever reaches us, it must spring up among is; it cannot come from abroad. As a nation of freemen we must live through all time, or die by suicide.” ee ae Seventy-one years after this speech was made ward young lawyer, a mob of citizens cut the throat citizen who was innocent of crime—and then they ran a rope through his gaping wound. — a by th RARE RENE AER RRR ERE } * HOW WoULD-— Ps * ~ YOU BAY ITT * * ‘This Is a new think excite * i * There are many different ways of saying a thing, and few & # persons will agree upon the best method.

Peas, beans, lentils, milk, eream and nuts con tain the same food élements, but are free from polsons. So also are fruits and all vegetables. Flesh foods are all more or less im pregnated with polsonous excreta Second, keep the body free from accumulated polsons. How? Drink much water-—-at least two quarts a day, get a Warm scrub bath every day aud a sweat bath once a week, and attend to the other excretions.
