Show Spiriting Away. The Bubsidixed organ iirouud the cornersiiys: "But is it not probable that these lynchers remembered the mysterious spiriting away of the Celestial Ce-lestial a few months ago, who murdered mur-dered the shoemaker in the Thirteenth Ward?" It is quite probable they did; but would the organ like to kinwhow the Celestial was spirited away? The Chinaman Chi-naman was committed to the Third District for trial lor murder; the time for holding two terms of that court came and went, and yet there was no indictment found against the Chinese murderer, nor was there a grand jury called for this district; the Celestial was confined in the county jail during that time with no more prospect of a trial than there was on tbe night of the murder; he was then taken before Judge Smith on habras corjw.s, mid very properly released, although he had committed a murder, mur-der, for which he would have played out the tune of life on a single string had he been tried. The Chinaman is not the only murderer who has been turned loose upon the community by the Chief Justice perveracness in standing in t'ue way of justice; and it is not probable be will be the last unless un-less that mission jurist should be removed. |
