been oblivious of it.' _
In the first place, the conduct at our
dance was not obstreperous; secondly,
if our critic will remember, the. eyening
was very warm, why should not
couples seek, tha cool_air to he found,
outside of the building? Thirdly, he
"aparently is-1 not- cognisant of the
fact that most of the large dances,
both private and publicTto secure spe-cial
artistical?and?aesthetic effects,
tvill turn nnt. 1ight3 during the course
of these special numbers.-- As regards
his reference to boisterous laughter,
by what instrument yet invertted can
laughter be measured to ascertain
whether or not it is merely an etfpresr
:sion of youthful glee, light-heartedness,
and happiness of bisterus? 7

as hjs article is not based on facts,

to detract from the success of our^
dance. Since his criticism he knows,
leep down in his heart, is unjust, we
can only suppose that ?he was predisposed
in this matter and therefore.balievo
it would-bftve-beert?in bettorticket
to our dance than to have attended
as Or guest, with a knife up
his-sleeve, as it were.. ~Atsm calling

dance, not many days past, which
.U'HO off 'A-- ** *

:older-.?ml-- -more-cosmopolitan than
those attending our dance, where th?
beverage served was stronger, thp
laughter louder ,ete, than at our
dance. This par icular dance received
the most favorable criticism at'the
hands of our critic. We can only judge
by this that the only word we can
think of to describe his conduct would
be toadyism to a certain set, and
lunking to help ingratiate himself by
using this method of disparagement
of our dance to further his ingratiatlon.
By dolng^thiKTjt is our upiniun
that he. has made a tike of himself in

His offer was declined. It was again
made, and^ jigain rejected. Now we
are told that?the Cov-ernor can ie"BTttly^do
no Tncrre under the eh-currr stances.
It is declared in statements
.coming o^t of Richmond that the
Governor's part in _such _an affair
must be predicted entirely upon the
will of local authorities. Unless local
authorities accept T;Tie offer of StabsT
assistance, it is declared, the Governor
is without authority to act. It is
.stated that he. ca.imot eve noffer a reward
except it be supplementary to
-a TOward"already, offered.*-This means
-bluntly stated, in Virginia at-leasts
a lynching is purely a local affair in
so far as it is dealth with by law,
the rest of the disvgraced citizens of
the State be hanged. If the local authorities
should choose to whitewash
"the whole affair, they haVe the power
tp do so. grid-Ure-Qnypmoy
bo'dy else, can interfere.
Considering these allegations, is
there" any cause for fear of punishr
mcnt niL the part of lyncherFTn Vfir-T
ginia? -They know that it is more
} precarious to bootleg?liquor og-to[d>reak
the sneed limit an the highway
than it-in to riddle a human bein?
with hullets, savagely mutilate his
body and hang it to a tree limb. Why,
lynchers know that no local acquies^
cence is required for the* State's legal
machinery to go anywhere. in its.
-confines after the distiller or the

open, and filially - the-'countv iudce !

bd to his appointment of a special
State counsel?to assist the commonwealth's

Now wo are told. the ^State investigators
may unearth whatever evi
dencfe they can or may, but it must
be presented to the local grimd jury
fnr nni-idrrntiim or failure of consid.
eration, just as the jurors may please.
It is stated that the grand jury has
the' power to ignore the Stae probers
altogether. ,,s
The rrtost ardent advocates of federal
anti-lyncHing legislation have
^te-ver been able :lo master such pnwerful
suporting argument as has been
disclosed by the lynching of Raymond*
