There has been enough, too much,
of this finding men guilty of criminal
acts, and giving them only civil pen
alties to suffer-for them. 1t brings
deep and constant discredit on our
laws. 1t is full time for the punish
ment of crime to lose its present APP
pearance of being an optional matter,
and to have it appear to be what it was
intended to be, an inevitable conse-
quence, whenever the guilty party is
within reach. 1t was President Wool
sey, if we are not mistaken, in his Wig
orous papers on divorce, few years
ago, who demanded that if the court
granted a divorce on the ground of
adultery of either of the parties, the
person whose guilt was proved should
be made to suffer the penalty prescrib-
ed by law for the offense, and that
when society discovered the guilty
party the law should not be allowed to
ignore him.-Hartord COuraat.

The 4th of March was selected for
Inauguration day because it would so
seldom come on Sunday. This has
happened only twice so farm 1921
on Monroe's second inaugural, and in
1919, when Zachary Taylor became
President. The third time will be
next March, and so it will always hap
pen three times during each century,
or one year after every seven leap
years, the three times in the next CEN
fury being 1917, 1915 and 1878.

WHILE women are steadily gaining
ground in education, industry, society,
administrative positions and moral in
fuenee, the signs of their enfranchise-
ment as steadily diminish. The ex-
pertinent of universal male suffrage
has not proved sufficiently successful
to encourage an extension of the priv
ilege, and there is hardly a question
that the majority of our people would
reduce the number Of voters rather
than give the ballot to a whole sex as

SAMUEL j. TILDEN, the present
Governor of New York, is sixty-three
years old. His past career is full of
grand s-statesmanlike
triumphs which will give him a highly
honored niche in our history. His
early youth was characterized by no.
bleness of character, honesty of pur-
pose and wonderfully clear insight
into the political needs of our country.
He has not refrigerated. To-day, at
the mature age ofsixty-three, he stands
one of the brightest ornaments of the
nation. There lives no man who loves
his country more or whose judgments
are more valuable. He is purely the
architect of his own fortune, and that
fortune is ample enough to preclude
all possibility of his being corrupted,
even if his unalterable sense of honor
were less sustaining. The Democracy
had better think twice before it ig-
nores him as candidate for the Pres
idency.-Franklin (Ky) Patriot.

BEECHER's paper, the Christian
Union, has collapsed, and an entirely
new management has taken hold of
the concern with n view of trying to
get back the circulation of $4,000
copies weekly which the paper enjoyed
before the damaging revelation about
Beecher came out. The circulation
began to fall off during the Beecher
trial, and has been reduced below 25,-
600 copies, while Ford 4 Co., the for
mer publishers, have become bank
rupt. No greater evidence is needed
as TO the popular conviction of the
guilt of Bcecher. Every effort was
made to keep up the circulation, and
although Beecher himself wrote volu-
minously for it, down it went.

you may well be proud Of the ability
and skill that reared them, and when
you tread these halls next Indepen-
dence Day, forget no man who iSop-
pressed in this country; let your
hearts burn with the spirit Of l778.
What was the spirit Of l7I6? The
Justice and duty Of freenen to resist
oppression, to make war at all times
and against all odds for q just prinoi-
pie. And | say to You that, compared
to the wrong which the Federal Gov
ernment, by the will and under the au-
thority Of the President, has. inflicted
on the. State OF Louisiana, by twice
overthrowing by armed force the only
elected officers Of her State Govern
.ment, the wrongs suffered by the Brit
ish colonies in 1776 at the hands Of
the king were but as,

Who does not love the beautiful snow,
In all it's glittering and dazzling glow.
Flying and dancing so feathery and light,
Clothing the ground in beautiful white 2
IL hath charms alike for old and young
Gifts beauty the poet in rapture hath sung
To call it dismal who would speak so
OfGod's own blessing, the beautiful snow |!
Il is wicked and simple and wrong to COM
plain
OF the fast falling snow or pattering rain;
The Lord sends it down to his creatures
below,
And we'll welcome the coming Of besuti-
full snow.
When winter comes on and snow
flakes do fall,
II is beautiful sight and pleasant to al;
The children cry out, GRANDMOTHER to-
day
Is picking her geese and the down flies
swsy."
The earth is made bright 10y the glittering
snow,
And it gladdeos our heart because it is so:
For if it were black, and darkness should
fall,
And ill the earth, twould be dismal to
ALL
But the Lord made it white TO give light
below,
'And we're thankful to Him for the beau
snow,
And we'll join in with poets and all that
bestow
Their praises to God for the beautiful snow.
The song of the poet too great does not
laud
The beautiful snow, dubbed by some as a
fraud;
II softens, enriches and mellows the soil,
And increases its yield to the browa oo"s
OF toll,
So that the poor may have plenty OF grain,
Who OF the snow will never complain.
They only regret they're not able to go
And enjoy as others Gods beautiful snow.
