IT AS A BAD M0?E. .
The attempt to lynch Will Ed
wards nd Tom Carr in Salisbury
Saturday night is not a matter to
be co 'ttiinplated with compla
cence by the law-abiding people
of the county. It is accumulated
wid-w.ee that there is an element
in tl.c county dangerous to the
good name of the county and the
safet" of citizens about whose
degre . of guilt there is difference
of opin'on. Not that the writer
is the least bit in
sympathy with the turn
the c jiirts. have given to this
particular case. Our under
stanaing of the matter leads us
to believe that both these char
acters axe just what that Rowan
jury said they were,
murderers in the first degree,
and that retributive justice as
well as a healthful confidence of
our people that the strong arm
of the law" will protect our citi
z 8ns, demanded that they be
hanged on the 20th day of De
cember. But in this we are
aware that we may be in error,
while we know positively that
mobs cannot be trusted to meet
out justice.

tion demands prompt and vigor

Editor Caldwell, of the Char
lotto Observer, came - near.. Con
fessing en last Sunday his penitence-
for writing a glooniy
article the. Sunday; before. 'It
seems his readers expect sun
shine without ; clouds from Ms
editorial skies. rWe read the ar
ticle and hardly feared that any
body would commit suicide from
its promptings.
There was, we thought, a fine

It is the wicked that have no
bands in their death, 'whose
strength is firm, who are not
plagued as other men, who have
more than heart could wish. It
is the wicked that speak loftily.
If life to the abitious were but
the living of it, then it were
scarcely worth the candle.
Rest is sweet only to the
weary and hope is an anchor
only to those tossed on life's
turbulent seas. '"
