In three States-Delaware, California and
Nevada whipping post is in full opera
ton, and in all of these, it is said, it produces
good results. The question of introducing the
whipping-post is now under discussion in
quite a number of other States; in North
Carolina public opinion strongly urges its in
PRODUCTION; in South Carolina the entire press
favors such measure, with the single excep-
ton of the Charleston Nens; while even in
New York the Times thinks public whippings
would have good effect on the tramps and
smaller criminals. The latest place to
take up the discussion of this measure
is st. Louis. The late grand jury of
st. Louis in its report strongly recommends
the whipping-post and declares it a necessity
for the protection of the taxpayers of that
city. The old system of Furnishing petty
offenses by short Imprisonment in Jail, at the
expense of the people is, the grand jury says
an incentive to crime. In support Of this
assertion it calls attention to number OF
cases wherein offenders confess that they
committed the offense because they were
hungry and cold and wanted to be locked up
where they could keep warm and get some
thing to eat The whipping-post would

The inroads of prosecution on the political
leaders of the Republican party of South
Carolina was well shown the other day on the
reassembling of the Legislature Of that State
When the Senate adjourned in April last 1t
stood: Republicans H. Democrats 16. Ten
Republicans have since retired from the SEN
ate, through fear of being prosecuted by that
body for offenses committed while members
OF It, In the interim four Democrats have
been elected to fill the vacancies made by
these designations. The Senate, therefore.
now stands: Democrats 20, Independent l,
Republicans 6, vacancies 6. In the House,
ALSO enough Republican members have re-
signed to reduce their number from So to "a.
giving the Democrats 81 majority, where they
had only majority before. The Democrats,
as will be seen, have now complete control
of the Legislature.

soon brighten these Offenders, and few know


soon brighten these offenders, and few know
how numerous they are.
Any number of schemes have been tried to
get rid Of the tramps, and all Of these have
failed, and the tramp nuisance, with its ar
sons, murders and outrages In its wake, is
daily growing worse. Whipping alone can
overcome and cure it. In reply to those who
declare the whipping-post barbarous, the
answer is made that In enlightened England
whipping Is still punishment for brutal
outrages," such as wife beating and other
offenses of this kind, and Is there declared
to be q complete success.
Whatever is the popular opinion on this
subject, there seems little doubt but that the
authorities Of st. Louis will follow the advice
Of it's grand jury, and try the moral suasion
OF the whip upon offenders. When this is
done the rest Of the country will be better
able to Judge of the working of this system in
large city, and whether 1t really cures
trampism, wife beating and petty larceny.

ACCORDING to our Dover correspondent
the directors of the Farmers Bank are not
willing that the Legislature shall put an
expert into the institution to make an in
spection. But why? If the Banks affairs
are all right why shouldn't the directors
desire the most searching inspection pos
sible. Is not their action calculated to ex-
cite undue anxiety where none has hereto
fore existed, or not much. True, the stock
sells from IS to $40 below par, and the div
idends have never been over 6 per cent,
Notwithstanding the immense patronage
the Bank enjoys from the State, the coun-
ty, the sheriff, and other public officers.
But the high character of the directors has
heretofore been an offset to these depres-
sing circumstances, and its now their pri-
vilege to stand between the institution and
public confidence. A "put up job" of in
vestigation on their part is not the best
ground upon which to make that stand.

BEEF FROM THE WEsT.-A year ago a firm
of butchers in this city undertook the ex-
pertinent of bringing to this market fresh
meat, particularly beef and mutton, from
Chicago, in refrigerator cars. The intention
was to do a wholesale business, selling to
butchers, but the Philadelphia butchers,
who were getting twenty-eight cents a
pound for tough steaks generally refused to
touch it. Nevertheless the experiment has
proved a complete success some of the re-
tailers in the different markets and a great
many grocery stores took it, and are retail
ing it to their customers with perfect salts
faction. This beef and mutton is in first
rate condition when slaughtered in Chicago,
and is superior to that brought here on the
hoof. The firm are now selling about $50
cattle per week, headquarters selling at
wholesale for 10 cents and fore-auarters al
81 cents per pound. Families who buy this
meat get the most succulent sirloin steaks
for Is cents pound, and the best of South
down mutton for l6 cents a pound.-Phia

PARTY INTEREsTS.-The repeal of the
Kent and Sussex dog law was purely a
party measure, so far as we can learn.
The public welfare was given a back seat,
while the Legislature cOnciliated lot of
men who, too thriftless to even feed their
worthless ours sufficiently to keep them
from yearning for the mutton that might be
found in the sheepfolds of more thrifty
neighbors, nevertheless could cast enough
votes to make the Democratic Legislators
respect their wishes hlore than the good of
the State. These men said, in substance,
if you like our votes, respect our dogs, and
the majority of the Legislature bowed sub
missively. That was the actuating motive
in the repeal Of the law.
Let us look at some statistics in this
sheep and dog question. 1t is estimated
that there is a dog to each family in the
State, on an average. 1t is further esti-
mated that what supports dog for year
will raise hog weighing 200 pounds. We
find this latter statement in the Baltimore
San. We have about 5000 families in the
State, according to the last census; there
fore. if we have $4,000 dogs, they consume
in year enough food to raise 100000
pounds OF pork.
In 1870 there were 22,7I4 sheep in the
State-5,lS5 in New Castle, 1916 in Kent
and 1928 in Sussex. These sheep are
worth at least 100000. They produced
58,3l6 pounds of wool, which, at 40 cents
per pound was worth $23, 3,326.40. Thus
22,714 sheep represented a commercial
value to the State of sl23, ,326, while $4,000
dogs represented-what? What CONNER
cial value have they? What are they, fol
the most part, but a nuisance and an OBJ
struction to a branch of husbandry tha
needs fostering by every means the State
can employ.
1t is estimated that in States where sheeI
raising meets with fair success, and wher,
the losses by the ravages of dogs is properl.
compensated, that the average will rul
about two sheep to each family otherwise
one TO a family-one sheep and one dog
This average, from the otherwise stand
point, holds good in Delaware. Therefore
the Legislature, by repeating this dog lav
for political effect, makes the State tn
loser to the amount Of over 100000 in on
branch of husbandry alone.
