We respectfully refer the Re corder to the subjoined from the Statesville Landmark, which is good authority on almost any sub ject. We could produce quite a number of the same tenor : . "This paper has a record of condemnation of lynch law. It is a desperate punishment and pre Tentiye of crime ; but it is not in She heart to upbraid those citizens f Cabarrus who last 'Sunday sight yisited such swift and ter rible vengeance upon those two negroes. The dangers of lynch law are that under its operation ihe wrong man may be put to death in the passion of the mo saent and in the eagerness to find a victim ; and that if it is exercised and condoned in one class of cases it may spread to others, un iil the life ot no man accused of any crime which aroused popular indignation, whether he be guilty or not, would be safe. If it were confined to such cases as this in flaKarrnst frif?t.?m nf it: wnnlrl f practically hashed, and indeed criticism and reproof in such in stances as this are a waste of Trords at best. Human nature, the desire to visit speedy punish- 3aent. are not to be reoressed. and A. the onlv wav to stoD lvnch law in -. w this class of cases is through a cessation of the offence." We extend our fraternal hand with aU the gusto of neighborly good-will and esteem to our con temporary, the Monroe Enquirers ' 3or the following . manly defense of our county and for the fitting re buke to the Biblical Recorder : M The Biblical Recorder says that it believes the negroes lynched near Concord, on May 29th, were inno cent. Why the Recorder thinks 4hose two fiends were innocent when they declared their guilt in the face of death and had the blood stains of the murdered girl on their slothing is unknown to-us. If there Ihad been any doubt of their guilt before, certainly that doubt was re moved when Johnsons's pants were Jaund a few days ago iri a wood-pile, where he had hidden them, with blood Btains on the identical por tions of the garment as were found on the overalls of the wretch. "TheHecorder further says, 'The saen who lynched them ought to be arrested, tried as speodily as possi ble and being found guilty, ought to b hanged until they are dead. . Th greatest shame of it is that the lynching occurred; but scarcely less tolerable is the fact that tho - . w vMWW State must 'suffer the disgrace of the crime of a hideous mob.' "We think 'that tfie men who love virtue and who believe in pro tecting defenseless Women are few and far between in our State who would say that the citizens of Ca barrus, who, to revenge the hellish crime committed in : the humble home of Sam Hartsell, took the law into their own hands and hanged the criminals, should be put to death for that act. We have heard so me of the best and' most conserva tive citizens of the State declare that the lynching was just. The Recorder would do well Ho give its sympathies to the stricken family of that humble farmer and good citizen, Sam Hartsell, .. instead of frothing at the mouth and demand ing the lives of the men, many of them as good citizens as will be found in the State, who hanged those two brutal, bloody-handed criminals who committed two of the most awful crimes known to law. "Let the Recorder's desire to see the men of Cabarrus, who lynched Johnson and Kizer, put to death be gratified and every devil in human form would feel that to some extent he is protected in his work of rob bing womanhood of its virtue. We doubt not that some of those who took part in that lynching at Con cord are men of noble character, men who in the business, the social and the relizous walks of life are of as high standing as he who de- r mands their blood and says they should die as criminals. Cursed be the hand which is lifted against the good citizens of Cabarrus who avenged the blood of an innocent girl and sent to their death two wretches who so richly deserved to die. "The Recorder makes itself dis gusting in demanding the lives of the lynchers of Johnson and K'zer." TUDl'DLE IS TOE CAMP. It will be seen in today's issue that some very unpleasant expe riences have been suffered in Com pany L. It is most unfortunate beside be ing very criminal in Mr. Winecoff to resent a supposed injury with a false statement against Captain Hill. In as much as such thing existed, we are glad for the publicity that justice may be done to each. We feel sure that Captain Hill will be reconciled to slight abridgement of his communication flowing out of natural indignation. We hope that Mr. Winecoff will profit by the hu miliating experience and will not aaiu resent a real or imaginary wrong with a statement that is false. There is yet another that we regret to see entangled in this affair. Cap tain Hill feels justified in a sharp degree of indignation toward our townsman,Mr.R K Black. Being de sirous that each should nave a chance to be set straight, we 'phoned Mr.1 Black, informing him that The Standard would contain Captain Hill's communica tion, in which he would be de nounced. Mr. Black asked us to state that when he received the letter from Mr. Winecoff he read it in the presence of the group 'who happened to be present, and on the statement of Mr. Winecoff he did not regard or treat it as a secret. He farther -, told as that he retained the letter, but gave Esquire Hill a copy. He says his motive was to place the information where it could be used for correction if needed. iSeqmre Hill, however, claims that Mr. Black's course was not satisfactory in the interest of fairness. i iPmf Vail fitrAttn DAd. For about two weeks, Mr. HeLry Van Straiten, father of Mrs. Sol Lievy, has been quite sick. On Saturday evening it was noticabie that Mr. Stratten could not live much longer He died : Sunda morning at 2 o'clock. Mr. Stratten was a uin of fine intellect having once ben a profea eor in one of the colleges in Bclcrinir , and was able to converse in sever different languages. came here about two months ago from ni home in Athens, Ga., to visit Mrs. Levy. He also has a son in Athens. He was 70 years of age. The remains were tasen to Char lotte on Sunday morning and at 4 o'clock in the afternoon they were Interred in the Jewish cemetery. Loses Ills MIucl. We are informed that on Satur day morning Mr, Will Barringer, who lives in the community of Hileman's mill in No. 5 township was cutting wheat but on Saturday evening he was found missing. The community began looking for him bat not until Sunday morning did they succeed in finding him. He was foand in the woods and had, eaten nothing. His mind seems to have become deranged. Notning at this time could be learned as to what would be done with him in his condition or whether he had in any way recovered. Installation Services. On Saturday evening Rev. J N Faust, the newely elected pastor of Trinity Reformed church, was or dained and installed as the pastor of that church. The services were conducted by Revp. Paul Barringer, of Mt. Pleasant, A Shulenberger, of China Grove, and J M L Lyerly, of Cresent. The services were to have been held Sunday morning but owing to some engagements on the part of the ministers it was changed io Saturday afternoon. The Holy Sacrament was administered on Sunt day morning by the pastor. ynler Stock in Trade Gone. The frenzy of Butler and his lieutenants over the action of the Democratic convention will be well understood when it is remembered that they have now lost their power to trade. They have no threat to hold over the heads of Republicans in driving a bargain.
