MR. BRYAN AND THE DURBIN-BECK-HAM INCIDENT.

Mr. Bryan’s article on the Dur-bin-Beckham inoident is character- ' istic of him in its adroit misrepresentation of facts and its wrOng conclusions. Other persons have discussed the incident on legal or constitutional grounds and in its relation to the administration of justice. Mr. Bryan treats it from the standpoint of partisan politics alone. Assuming that Governor Taylor was a party to what he calls a political conspiracy to kill Goebel he says: “Since he [Taylor] became a fugitive from justice the Republican party has been making a hero of him.'’ Whatever recognition Mr. Taylor has had from Republicans hasbeen because they believe he was fairly elected Governor of Kentucky and dishonestly counted out, as thousands of an-ti-Goebel Democrats in Kentucky believe today. There is not a Republican in Indiana who does not regard the murder of Goebel as an atrocious crime, for which the perpetrator, if he could be found, should receive merited punishment but they no more believe that Governor Taylor was a party to the orime than they would have believed that Goebel was a party to the murder of Taylor, had the latter been killed. Men of their olass sometimes kill their enemies, in street affrays as Goebel had killed one man but they do not enter into conspiracies to murder. Probably some excited and passionate Republican killed Goebel, and it'is greatly to be regretted that he oould not have been oaptured and punished, but no sane person outside of Kentuoky believes that Governor Taylor had anything to do with the murder. For that reason, and Republicans do not believe he could have a fair trial in Judge Can trill’s court, Republicans are glad the governor of Indiana refused to surrender him. Mr. Bryan says: If a Republican cannot be tried in a Democratic State, will the Republicans insist that a Democrat could have a fair trial in a Republican state? If the reasons presented by Governor Durbin are sound, then it is perfectly safe for a Republican to kill any Democratic executive and flee to a Republican state, and if Democratic Governors act upon the same principle it is safe for a Democrat to kill a Republican offioial and then flee to a Democratic State. Who has said that a Republican oannot be tried in a Democratic state or a Democrat in a Republican state? This is one of Mr. Bryan’s illogical conclusions. The thing happens every day. MrBryan purposely ignores the difference between normal conditions and those which make a fair trial impossible. If the time ever comes in this state that a Republican judge, a Republican prosecutor and a paoked jury of Republicans undertake to trample down justice and railroad a Democrat to the penitentiary or the gallows on a false charge and perjured testimony, let him hasten to {Kentucky and demand the protection of a Democratic Governor. He would be sure to get it, and all fairminded Republicans would say he deserved it. —Indianapolis Journal
