l iw" the ratio of'yii' Iiiiit to the numb r
ot" legal ee. ui ions shows a decided ano
steaoy inciease. New laws to re ress
lynching have had, and can have, no ei
fect. It has alw'ii s been niuroer to take
the life, even of a criminal, without war
rant ol law, and no new law c ,u nia':e it
any greater orl'ence. The remedy must
be sought in t'.iis east-jn-t i- a Dhysici.iu.
or a maehini-t seek the ri'niel in a case
entrusted to thetn. the tif?t step l- to
a-certaiu the cau-e ot the trouble. That
being know u the remedy can oe intelh
gent ly applied.
The cause of lyuchiir' is not a spirit of
lawlessness. As a nne the men who p r
ttcipate in it wish ardently to enfoice jus
tice. The tru.h is so ii ly feels that it

lost confidence in the promptness und cer

is committed s .eiety will roie. t itself ' y

is the case ot the Yigilau e Committees oi

tor their punish mtnt. The ouuv-er ol i
homicides in 1H92 being 0,791 the other
capital felonh s committed would doubt-h-ss
raise the total to 10,000 or over. That ;
lor tins number of offeaces only 107 wciv
le :allv eouvicte.l and executed is signifi
cant. Its signitican e is deep. ned by the
fact that society despairing of a due execu

to Sav that it was no ineuiisiiieraoie num

The remedy lor lynching is to restore
the confidence ot society iu the jus:,
prompt and efficient trial and pumsu
meut of criminals. Courts i.re ery ex
pensive to the people. Yet in mo-t case.

The Progressive Age, of Aurora, has

account of the murder when it occurred
and another telling the particulars ot the

Praetleal Diaetnssion of Lynching.
Although comparatively few lynchings
or-cur in our own State their steady in
crease in the country at large is attracting
public attention And, though. North
Carolina already has a special law against
lynching, 'he matter is expected to receive
consideration at the hands ol the coming
legislature
The views of the eminent jurist, Walter
Clark; Associate Justice of tbe North Car
olina Sugreme Court copied this
morning from the American Law
Review, the leading legal periodical in this,
country it seems to us, is directly Tin the
right line. Some step should unquestion
ably be- taken to make the law more
speedily snd surely effective and thus re
move as far from the people as possible
the temptation to mete out swift and ter
rible justice when ;t is deserved, and what
means will accomplish this should.be
studied and discussed by our ablest men
until a correct solution of this most diffi
cu t question is reached.
IX EVERY HEART THERE IS AN ARK
In every heart there is an ark
That" stems the floodtide ot despair.
A raven and a dove are there.
Acioss the waters dread and dark,
We first send out .
The raven doubt.
Which, to and fro
Will come and go,
And fan its black wing in the air.
But bring no olive leaf to cheer.
We then sentl out the dove of hope,
Which 1 ho' at first she find no cheer.
Will come back when, at hour of
prayer,
The windows of the ark fly ope.
Then after seven days again,
She starts upon h"sr patient quest.
Her weary footsole she is fain
Cn yonder olive bough to rest;
15uf first back o'er the waters dark
Flies with the leaf to cheer the ark.
Aye, even more she there remains
Yet other seven days and nighls,
Till I-ove come tlown with rainbow
lights,
And hope is needed ne'er again.
1 1 Not so with raven doubt. He sallies
Down in some boggy fen, to gnaw
His c-aven wing, and croak and caw
Or freezes lo some bust of Pallas.

Children Who Suffer
from scrofalous, skin or scalp diseases,
ought to be given Dr. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery, tor purifying phe blood.
For children who are puny, pale or weak,
the 'Discovery" is a tonic which builds
up both flesh and strength. What is said
of it tor children applies equally to adults.
As an appetizing, reslorative tonic, it sets
at woi k all the processes of digestion aDd
nutrition, rouses every organ into natural
action, and brings back health and
strength. In recovering from "grippe ''
or in c.invalesence from pneumonia, levers,
and other wasting diseases, it speedily in
vigorates and buil.ls up the whole sys
tem. For all diseases caused by a torpid liver
or impure blood, as Dyspepsia and Bili
ousness, it it doesn't cure in every case,
the money is returned.
