Green, Former Vol Coroner of Richland County. \h A human being was shot to death Lj n a store in the business heart of ^ Columbia at half-past 10 o'clock L Friday morning. So far as the I widence presented at . the inquest jj indicates, the killing was without! the sluuiow of justification, a wan- (| ton slaughtiMLthat would have U'cn s -hocking to me humane sense of a t civilized community had tin; vie- , | tim of the deadly shot l>een a dog. !c Where does the responsibility lie, for the ruthless killing of the negro, Mose Tucker, by William S. Green, ; s former coroner of Richland county? !t It lies immediately, of course, in , the disregard of the laws of God ( 1 . . .. .1 A 1. . .1 ' turn mail on me pail 01 rue Mayer, ig But primarily tin* resjionsibility fur {. that bloody grave rests at the door&i r of the peace officers of this city and \ county who have failed to make 1 this man resjieet the law in ' cases, and at the doors of those U legislators who year after year permit the continuance of loopholes : through which influential or favored criminals may escape. And behind the failures to perform their full duty is a dormant public sentiment, unworthy of a law-abiding people. The law should provide that whenever there is a violent breach of the peace, in which a life is threatened or deadly violence attempted, there shall he rigorous prosecution. Whether or not the assaulted person is willing to "let the case drop," the case should be followed up by officers of the law, from magistrate to solicitor. The I offense is not alone against the j>er-' son assaulted, it is against the stale, I it is against society. And every abandonment of a prosecution gives encouragement to lawlessness and development desperIf a man is killed his nearest of kin can not "drop the case" against the slayer. Why, then, if I the attempt to kill is unsuccessful j should the state permit the intend-1 ? ? 1 victim to "(Imp the ease" or ho brought oft"? Had thoro been administered in the Columbia ami ! Hichland courts for tno last fifteen years the fearless, impartial justice j that was known in this city in the years when John T. Ithett was mayor none would have grown up regardless of law, or feeling free, even if his conscience permitted, to | *2\JtAA ^ " -v ? j of reproof. W hen Mose Tucker was killgd | the man who slew him wjis on his way from the police court, where he had heen summoned for attempting to cut to death a white j man on the previous evening. He! went to court, armed with at least a pistol; hut found the charge had ' heen "withdrawn." Had its withdrawal not heen permitted this i community would have proUihly escaped the shock and digracc of that killing; had the law heen enforced in previous years it would have made itself respected or feared, and the knife would not have heen used on Thursday night. No man-made decree can force men to do right through fear of their consciences, nor make them love the law tor the sake of society, nor inculcate such respect for themselves and their families that will guard against disgrace. Man-made j laws cannot do these things, hut those that disregard all else that j appeals to the higher senses are i reached hy fear and man-made laws, enforced, protect society from those acainst whom .o- ....... needs protection. Only through * fear of punUhmcnt can society he protected from tint coward that ' strikes down without warning a de- !| fenseless heing, or from him on \ whose soul the stain of human t iliMid rests lightly. I'uerefore, so- ' iety should appeal loudly and ( nsistently upon the law and denand its enforcement in every t v nstanee.
