GOV. EVAN'S ADDRESS.
We listened with close attention to)
the address delivered by Got. Evans !
when be assumed the Presidency of j
tbe Convention yesterday, and we !
can say without hesitation, that w e j
were pleased with the tone and tern- ?
per of his remarks With one or two ?
exceptions we can and do endorse j
the suggestions he made : and we be
lieve that if the suggestions mad., by
Gov. Evans are wisely incorporated j
into the new Constitution the State
will be the better off. His sugges- ;
tions were neither new nor novel, aud ;
are the better for it perhaps, but all.
were sensible and. based upon reason j
and experience.
The principal points of Gov Evans*]
address were his advocacy of educa- !
tioi.al qualification of the suffrage, the ?
liberal and continued support of the .
public schools, the maintenance of
all of the States institution's for high
er education, the election of all ofH ,
cers. including judges, by popular
vote, the establishment of county
courts and chain gangs where pris
oners will be made to work the pub
lie roads, the enactment of a general
law providing for the chartering of
corporations and removing from the
Legislature the annual nuisance of a;
large number of special acts for the ;
incorporation of all sorts of compa- '
nies
On ail of these questions he came
out plainly and placed himself on
record in favor of them. Gov.
Kvans has risen considerably in our j
estimation, and his address yester
day was the means by which the
change was accomplished He could
have very easily confined himself to
platitudes or generalities, but he did
not do so and we commend him for
having chosen the more manly and
hotiester course
His statement that the municipali
ties are the seats of corruption, and
{hat. the municipal elections are the
only occasions where corruption and
fraud prevails cannot be allowed to
pass -unchallenged' 'Got*.. Evans

/it T8 pa4S3i)&ly:strange xbat whenever .a^ fire
occurs, that the bystanders, who really have
no business there, seem to d/light in criticise
trig"t??e efforts o? the firemen to subdue the
fi rey .frequently -causing much dissatisfaction
among the young men who co?spose the fire
department. It ?ometimes. occurs that delay
i? caused by accidents which are unavoidable,
and t ?' sbould -not bring forth ? adverse criti
cism of citizens who.should at aii times com
mend tbe efforts of our young men who give
their time" and service to such dangerous duly
without hope Of compensation or reward.
And if such sentiment-should prevail instead
of fc?lish remarks which are only calculated
to : excite ; contempt among tbe firemen, it
would redound to the benefit of all concerned.
Fireman.
The young men who belong to the fire de
I partmeot. should not take so much to heart
the adverse criticisms of bystanders at fires,
j The department, as at present organized, has
done unusuajly good work at every fire, and
I hasa record to which the individual mem
bers may refer with pride, and in which the
: city has a just pride. Tbe fire department is
! a public institution and every ciiizeD feels
himself qualified ro.criticise "it and many will
; do so.at every fire, whether criticisms are
called for or not. This the firemen should
remember, also that tbe department is uot
above criticism, and that there may be oc
casioos when criticisms wiH be both just ai.d
beneficiaste the department. There is
need for any of ihe'fitemen io get excited or
angry and if they will think awhile they will
come to the same conclusions. The remarks
of hystauders cann?.C.)i?ju;re; them, and tbey
should appreciate the fact .thai tbe fire, de

RAPE AND LYNCH LAW.
I propos1: d:scus?ing two questions of vasi
import to our people ??roi particularly so just
at th?? time. They are, Rape and Lyne'a Law,
i so-called?a misnomer, for it is suppression
' of.all law. They wre linked together in our
; State,[ hpv-ever?first rape, next lynch law.
The y.-jse,,'ph'ys.iciar. in considering disease,
I looks first to the canse, then prevention^ then
: cure. flu ok statistics wilt prove that of all
! tbe causes of lynch law rap*, stand's first. ?
like logic futain fondest of illustration : So
i to ullpstrate : Take by way o? example a
a lusty.buck'negro and what have ou A
i man pl..sma.il intellect, less moral sense hut
tremendous instincts, and passions, the sexual
I predominating, arid ?las, running out mainly
tor?ards'.the white woman?not the stoic of
the woods, a-man- Without a tear, nut more
of tipe ?orilla, the terror of th? African for
es is, and.there the king of .beasts, for 10 him
the. lion is. bufa playthit^;?fit ty pe of this in
human monster.. Now to . the toan. He
goes, forth to aeyastf.te.apd destroy, .the deyil
bei/..g .uppermost, and a powerful stimulus
within urging him on to the pei pet ra ti oh'?f a
terrible crime. He secretes himself : he rushes
up?n'30'me innocent woman ; she is overcome
j and theo'a hori?ol? crime (Which should: be
j nameless) is perpetrated, and the poor woman
I is roioed; perhaps kilted, tbe less horrible
fate : Then comes lynching, which might be
excused were there not a better way topun
? isb, and correct, and prevent, which is" the
: m?io point. Now the matter becomes slight
ly complicated because we have to consider
Cansare caunans?n cause within a cause.
; And here physiology comes in. The presence
i of too touch prolific fluid manufactured by
two little glands. -GlaBda, first cause, being
removed, prolific fluid-ceases to be made, the
stimulus is removed and the bock negro for
the future begins to be an innocent t??ti.
This should be enough, bnt when we discuss
such questions we must handle tbern fully?
not calling a spade a teaspooL or a bowie
knife a pen-maker.
Now, then, this man having a simple-sur- j
gical operation performed upon him, is oo j
longer a terror to innocent women, but after
a short time a quiet and, perhaps, a good, at
least a better citizen, resting at home at night !
insTead of roaming abroad ro ravage. The
pon?3hment is sufficient and the effect benefi
cent; ar,d in deterring others from attempts
to commit this borritile crime the result is
permanent. And this matter should also be
con.-idered in a moral aspect. Lynch him
and where does his sou! go. "he dying with a
hot crime upon it? Make a eunochofhim
and he has time to repent wnd become a f?et- ?
ter man'. ' Also, there wrll be no need ?r dis- '
position for lynching. Re3t assured the ef- ;
feet upon evil doers would be tremen dons', for
many ?f them would rather die than lose this
p?nion of their bodies, nnd its aid in sup
pressing lynching would be of incalculable
moment as well as its effect in qutetrng the
tone of society. This should apply toeil men,
equally.
