ANOTHER MOB INDICTED.
\
I Twenty men were convicted in
Asheville Saturday of participation in
li the recent raid on the Asheville jail
in search of a negro charged with at
tacking a white woman. Fifteen of
the men were sentenced, the other five
receiving suspended sentences.
This is the second time in the
course of a few months that mobs
have been indicted and convicted in
L North Carolina. The first was in
the eastern part of the State when
a young man was taken from jail
and mutilated. The fact that the
rt second case was centered in the west
ern part of the State and that con
i', vietions were secured in each case in
dicates that the people of the State
are generally agreed that mobs will
v not be tolerated.
1* Judge John M. Oglesby, of Concord,
was presiding at a term of Bund!rnbe
• * County Superior Court when the at
' tack on the jail was made. He inane- !
diateiy instructed that every effort be
made to apprehend the mob members.
Sheriff Mitchell worked diligently on
the case as did Solicitor Swain. The
court officials as well as the eouuty
officials are to be commended for the
'• promptness with which they acted.
Judge Oglesby fixed the bonds of the
men arrested at $2,500. showing iu
f his first move that the State regard
ed the offense as a serious one.
* The negro which the mob tried to
j take from the jail lias been duly tried
and competed. He will pay with his
ft life for his crime. That shows that
*, mob law is not needed in this State.
- " It is not needed, nor will it be tcler
„ ated. We are not living in 'an age of
t barbarism, and those persons who
1 seek to take the law into their r.ivn
h* hands will realize it when justice acts
as promptly and as surely as it did -n

Contempt For the Court-
ifle Daily.
When the lib-odd Asheville resi
dents who tried to smash tpe county
bastile in their efforts to kill a
negro were being arraigned for trial
in Buncombe Superior court. vwo
under bond failed to answer and
Judge Stack ordered the bonds for
feited. The attorney for one of the
absentees exp'ained that hi * client
had an imiKirtant real estate trans
action in Florida, which demanded
his attention, ur.d that the wires to
Florida were so congested that he
couldn't wire his client and lie had
recourse to the nftiils. Take notice
that a citizens under $2,500 bond to
answer a criminal charge, with full ,
knowledge of course of the term of
court to which he was bound, and the
date, considered his private business
of more importance than a summons
to court. The court could await
his return or go on withou him; he
had more important business. The
wires were so Joader with business
that his attorney couldn't wire him. 1
Wire business to Floida out of
Asheville must be enormous, , I
That is an example of the iudiffer- j
enee With which the courts arc often
treated by those wWF think they will
be able to get away with it. and who
often succeed. Judge Stack told the
attorney that the excuse wasn't j
valid, but if that forfeited bond is
collected it will be cause for surprise.
Take notice of any Superior court
sitting and observe how often tael
judge has to twiddle his thumbs
while he waits the appears nee of
subpoenaed witnesses, defendants
under bond, or other persons, fre
quently attorneys, who often come in
at their convenience aud pleasure.
With all due onsideration for
emergencies, that sort of indifference
to court orders and regulations '
doesn’t create respect for the courts;
ad. some of the excuses offered by
lawyers are an insult to the in- \
tel'igcnce of the court.

Editor Eugene Ashcraft in his
Catch-All Column says:
“Newspapers say that it e6st IV. !

If friend Ashcraft will investigate
a bit. he will find that the Good Book
does not say "all that a man hath
lie will give for his life.” It was not
God who said that, it was the devil.
And it’s as big a lie as the devil ever ■
told. His satanie majesty remarked
that "all that a man hath will lie

and means of tempting Job away from

CHAPTER XXVIII. (Continued)
There were other overflows un
derfoot now, but the cold had frozen
them find the going was getting con
stantly better. The snow was thin
and in places the sleds slewed side
wise and the dogs ran on slack
traces across long stretches of bare
glare ice. It was while negotiating
such a place as this that Rock paid
the price of his earlier carelessness.
Dorgt's dry moose-skin soles had a
sure grip, hence he never hesitated,
but the lieutenant’s moccasins were
like a pair off tin shoes now and,
without warning, he lost his foot
ing. He was running swiftly at the
moment; he strove to save himself,
to twist in midair, but he failed.
'Poleon heard a cry of pain and dis
may, so he halted his team and came
striding back. Rock raised himself,
then took a step, but faltered and
clung helplessly to the handlebars.
He began to curse furiously; he Un
dertook to estimate the extent of his
injury, then explained:
‘My foot doubled udder me and I
came down on it like a ton of bricks.
.By Heavens! I believe something
! broke.”
’Poleon was solicitous. He
blamed himself, too. “It’s dem wet
moccasin’. I should have stop’ an’
mak' you change,” said he.
“We can’t stop,” Rock groaned,
j “I’ll be all right as soon as—” The
words ended in another explosive
oath as he again put his weight
i upon the injured member. Blas
phemy poured from his lips as re
peatedly he tried ta force his foot
to carry him. He cursed himself
for a clumsy blundering a'ss; he
shouted at his dogs; he sent his sled
forward and along behind
it, half supporting himself, until ’Po
leon finally halted him.
“It's no good mak’ bad t’htg
worse, M'sicn’r the woodsman de
clared. “You bus' him for sure, an’
it’s no use goin’ furder. S’pose
! mebbe we boil de kettle, eh?”
| “And let them get away clean?
j When we had ’em? They can’t be
'll mile ahead. Let ’em slip between
our fingers?” raved the officer. “I
i can’t. I won’t—”
| “We mak’ li’l fire an’ look him
over dat foot. Me, I t’ink you don’
walk no more for two, free week’.”
“You go! I’ll deputize you! Get
’em, Doret, quick! You can do it!
I’ll wait! Go ahead!”
| The other nodded. “Sure, I can
i get ’em! I never have no doubt
’bout dat in de least, but it’s better
I we fix you corfor’bte.”
“They’ll be across, I tell you—
over the Line—”
“I came pas* dat place more ’n
once or twice”—the French Cana
dian grinned—“an’ I never seen it
no Line.” He forced his companion
to lower himself upon the sled, then
swung it toward the river-bank,
calling upon his own lead dog to
follow. Up and into the shelter of
the spruce he drove the Police team;
quickly he felled dry wood and kin
dled a fire. This took bilt a few
moments, but Rock was wet with
sweat and in consequence he was
i shivering wretchedly; his teeth were
chattering even before the blaze had
taken hold. ’Poleon continued to
, work with what speed he Could, and
in a surprisingly short time he had
built a snug wickinp and filled it
with boughs. This done, he un
hitched and fed both teams, spread
Rock’s sleeping bag under the shel
ter, and set a pail of Snow to melt.
By the light of the fire he examined
the latter’s injury, but could make
little of it, for already it was badly
swollen _ and every manipulation
caused its owner extreme pain.
There were no remedies available;
there was not even a vessel of suffi
cient size in which to bathe the foot;
hence ’Poleon contented himself by
bandaging it and helping his trail
tnate into bed.
Not since leaving Dawsort had
either man tasted hot food, hut
their hunger was as nothing to their
thirst. Even in this length of time
their bodies had shrunk, withered,
inside their clothihgrund for per
haps an hour they took turns greed
ily draining the pail of its tepid
contents. Under intense cold the
; human body consumes itself at a
rapid rate. Once it has burned it
| self out it preys upon those deep
hidden forces which nature holds
in reserve, and the process of re
cuperation waits upon a restoration
of a normal balance of moisture.
Both. men i were weighed dovfrn by
an aching, nightmare fatigue, and as
they sat gulping hot water, absorb
ing heat from within and without
tneir muscles set and they felt as g
their limbs had turned to stone.
But, once the first mad craving
for drink had been assuaged, they
fried bacon Mid made tea. Like
wolves they fell upon the silt meat;
they dipped the hot grease up in
their spootts and swallowed It with
relishr they crunched their hard
tack and washed the powdery
mofithfulis dotvn with copious
j draughts from the blackensd pail.
When the tea was gone they brewed
another scalding bucketful.
> . Rock lay back finally, but the
movement caused him L to bare his
teeth in _agony. At ’Poleon’* quick
inquiry he shook his head,
i . " , *n. right,” he, declared.
Good for the night. You can pull
out any fine you want to.”

THE CONCORD DAILY TRIBUNE
) “You done firs’ rate,” the woods
man told him. “If I come a lone I
catch ’em ten mile below, but--U’l
( tanj, more less, don’ mak’ no differ.”
‘1 believe you would have got ’em,”
i the officer acknowledged. After a
time he persisted: “They’ll put up a
: battle, Doret. You’ll need to be care
ful.”
’Poleon was squatted Indian fash
ion over the blaize; he was staring
fixedly into the flames, and an ab
orifjjpal reticence had settled upon
him; After a long time he answered:
“Mebbe so I keel de beeg feller. I
dunno. So long one is lef’ I mak’
him clear dat boy Phillips.”
“Decent of you to take a chance
like that for Pierce,” Rock’kesinned.
“It’s different with me; I have to
do it. Just the same, I wouldn't care
to follow those fellows over the
Boundary. I don’t think you'd bet
ter try it.” • ;
In spite of his suffering, the lieu
tenant fell into a doze; whether he
slept ten minutes or an hour he never
knew, but he awoke, groaning, to find
the big woodsman still bulked over
the camp-fire, still smoking, still sip
ping tea. Rock ate and drank some
more; again he slept. For a second
time his pain roused him, and once
more he marveled to discover 'Pol
con occupied as before. It seemed
to him that the fellow would never
satisfy himself. Eventually, how
ever, the latter arose and made prep
arations to leave.
The Northern Lights had flickered
out now; the empty sky was
sprinkled with a million stars which
glittered like scintillating frost jewels
frozen into the dome of heaven;
there were no sounds what
ever to break the deathlike silence
of the night, ■ for the Arctic wastes
are all but lifeless. There was no
bird-calls, no sounds of insects, Wot
even the whisper of running water,
for the river was locked deep be
neath its icy armor.
"You got ’nough wood to las’ long
tam,” ’Poleon declared. “If I don'
come back, dem Forty Mile Police
is sure to pick you up."
'“I can go in alone if I have to,’’
the injured man declared. "Au
revoir and good luck.”
’Poleon made no attempt to hum
his tired team; for several miles he
plodded along behind them, guiding
them to right or left by a low-spoken
word. Years before, he had rocked
on the bars of this stream; there
fore its landmarks Were familiar to
him. and in spite of the darkness he
readily identified them. In time- he
made out the monuments marking
the International Boundary, and *
short distance beyond that point he
unhitched his dogs, then took a cav
bine from his sled and sliced it full
of shells. Next he removed his lasir
rope, coiled it, and placed it in his
pocket, after which he resumed hil
journey alone.
Occasionally he dimly glimpsed de
serted cabins, habitations built bv the
gold-diggers of other davs. Care
fully he followed the.all but indis
tinguishable sled tracks ahead of hiqi
Until they swerved abruptly in toward
the bank. Here he paused, pulled
a mitten, and, moistening, a finger,
held it up to test the wind. What
movement there was to the alt
seemed to satisfy him, for step by
s . te P,_ he mounted the steep slope un
til his head finally rose over its crest.
Against the sky-line he now made
oi\t a small clearing; straining his
eyes, he could see the black square
of a cabin wall. No light shone
from it, therefore he argued that his
men had supped and were asleep.
He had assumed that they would
not, could not, go far beyond thr-
Boundary; he had purposely allowed
them sufficient time in which to overv
come the first -agony of jptigue ana
tQ fall asleep. He wondered
hensively where they had put their
dogs, and if by any evil chance the
McCaskey team included an “out
side” dog of the watchful, barking
variety.
Gingerly he stepped out, and found
that the sflow underfoot gave off
ortly the faintest whisper. Like a
shadow he stole closer to the hut,
keeping theg imperceptible night
breeze in his face.
So noiseless was his approach that
the tired dogs, snugly curled each ia
its own deep bed of snow, did not
hear him—your malamutes that are
broken to harness are bad watch
dogs at best. Not until he had melt
ed into 'the gloom beneath the wide
overhang above the cabin door did
the first disturbance come. Then
something started into life and the
silence was broken.
’Poleon saw that a csfpvas sled
cover had been used to curtain the
door opening, and during the instant
following the alarm he brtished the'
. tarpaulin aside and stepped into the
pitch-black interior.
It had been a swift maneuver, tfifc
result of a lightning-like decision,
and-hot so reckless hs It appeared.
He stood now kith his back to the
rough log wall, every muscle in'l3l
body taut, his ears strained for some
sound, some challenge. He had bed!

Joe McCaskey uttered-a cry, a
scream. The flame was crushed in
his palms and again the cabin was
ink black. It remained as silent as
before except for a dry rattling of
breath in the elder brother’s throat.
“Wha—what ’d you—see?” the
younger one gasped. Both men
were tiow fully awake, but, disre
garding the question, Joe cried,
wildly:
“Who are you? What d’you

and his flesh was rippling with a

was it that had walked in out pf the

spring? Nothing human, nothing
natiiral, that was sure.
Similar thoughts raced madlv
through his brother’s brain, and the
latter let forth a thin wail—almost
a sob. The sound set Joe into mo

Where was the thing—?
Joe’s body turned rigid, his shak

when out of the darkness came a
sigh—faint but unmistakable; whence
it issued neither brother could tell.
With another shriek Frank fell
back and burrowed Qnto his sleep
