The First Fruits sv Rey. Thomas B. Gregory Copsriaht, 1910, ty The Prose Pubebia, Co (iy Kew York Brening Word.) Courts of Justice Were Established to Mete Out Punishment or Clear the Guiltless A Ts capture, tMal and conviction of the negro rapist at Camden, N, J. 1g the latest lilustration of the coming of good out of evil. Within thirty minutes from the time Whitings was delivered to the court he was tried, convicted and sentenced, and within two hours he was in prison, beginning his twenty-year term at hard labor. ‘That lynching is an evil and a crime no sane human being ever for Toineiit doubted. Being destructive of that bed-rock principle of all true elvilization—DUE PROCESS OF LAW —it is perhaps the ‘master erime, and should be dealt with accordingly. And what has been largely responsible for this supreme offense against the or ens upon which the very existence of human society depends The answer ip right at hand—the LAW'S DHLAYS. - There are crimes that seem, to the rank and file of people, to demand Immediate punishment—the quicker the better—and if the courts refuse to satisfy this very Luman sentiment, if they persist in their mock dignity, in withholding the retributive hend, the community take: matter into its own hands and without intending it, or even being eonscious of it at the time, commits a graver offense than the one they punish. It was the realization of this fact—late in coming but apparently effec- tive when it did come-—that produced the #peedy tria) and conviction at) Camden. The Lord be praised! Better late than never, and fhe chances are that the rest of the country will take the hint from New Jersey, and so help to bring about the end of @ orying evil. “The law's delay!" Shakespeare was not the only one in the past to de- plore it, and to make it one of the reasons for wanting to “shuffle off this mortal cult.” Jt has been the joke and mystery and plague of all the ages. Nevet to be forgotten is the remark of Sydney Smith; “The land tor- tolxe has two enemies—man and the boa constrictor. Man takes him hom and roasts him, and the boa constrictor swallows him whole, shell and al and consumes him SLOWLY in the interior, as the COURT OF CHANCERY | DOPS A GREAT KATATE.” SLOWLY! that is the word. And why? One word answers the question red tupe, . Courts exist for the purpose of dealing out penalty to those who break the laws, and, of course, for the vindication of those who may be falsely agoused of breaking tham; and plain common penge tells us that the quicker bade yer " Accomplished the better for all concerned, ‘0 ¥ justice iw in itself a crime.
