In Wales the custom of visiting the rest.

Sunday, or, as it is called there, Flower
Jog Sunday" On that day the cemeteries
are the popular places of resort, and the
tombs are covered with wrea.hs' OF choice
flowers.
The State of New Hampshire has had
thirty.eight Governors in the past 100
years, and their average age when elected
was titty-three years. The youngest, Levi
Woodbury., was thirty. four years old
when chosen, in 1923. The two oldest
were each seventy.

Some of the people in Boston are feeling
an anticipatory thrill of delight over the
approaching trial trip of steamer which.
if local opinion can be trusted. is to revo.
lutloniZe ocean passenger traffic and make
Boston the chief port for arrival and de-
parture OF those who sross the Atlantic
Ocean. The steamer in question, the

TIE BEBKEY CASE.

This is very curious state OF things.
Thomas BeIkey is believed by this COM
munity to have embezzled sum of 3, 700,
public money. The evidence upon which
this belief rests is such as to convince even
those who desire Iot to be persuaded
1t has been sufficient to justify the County
Central Committee in removing Berkey
from the county ticket. But it would APP.
pear to be nobody's duty to 90 anything in
the premises, or else some official or officials
are strangely neglecting their duty. Is it
possible that the District Attorney, the
Attorney. General, have no responsibilities
in case Of this kind, Can a man embez
zle s.. 700 of the public funds, and every.
body hear of it, and yet he be allowed to go
about Lis affairs ur9uestioned, uDchal-
lenged, unarrested! Ii man steals a
loaf of bread, and is caught, summary
lusticc-or injustice-is meted out to him.
If man gets DRINK and makes a disturb.
ance, he is locked up and fined, or sent to
the chain-gaug But when man misappro.
PIRATES the public funds by hundreds oil
thousands of dollars, the blindness of jus.
tice becomes phenomenal, and the machin.
cry OF the law ceases to operate. We
are not called upon to analyzs the
present situation, and show exactly
how it is that nothing has been done. /,
is our duty as public journalists to poin,
out the facts, and TO express what We
know to be the opinion of the community
to the effect that it is disgrace to it that
such apathy and neglect of duty should be
tolerated. II cannot be wondered at that
defalcstions in public offices are frequent
when we note the IMMUNITY which attend:
such crimes. Bat in this case it really
seems that the guilty man believes himself
the object of popular approval and sym
pathY rather than of popular condemna
ton, and considering the immunity from
prosecution he las thus far enjoyed per
haps such belief is rot surprising. JUS
now we desire to know if it really is no
body's business that s., 700 has beer
embezzled from the State? An afiirmativ,
answer to that inquiry would at least be
fair warning to the voters for the future
to take more care in selecting the holder
of iiduciary positions.

in short time. The army and navy are
weakened by the Egyptian expedition also,
and all things considered, it would seem
that if there really existed any organized
scheme Of insurrection in Ireland, it would
be more likely to develop Cow than at any
future time. The Government has not
been 80 weak there for many years, and
the withdrawal OF the constabulary at
SO critical a juncture might easily be the
signal for formidable and most embarrasE.

The trouble besx,een THE Government
and the Royal Iiish Con stabulsry does not
seem to be at all satisfactorily settled. The
situation in Doblin, in fact, is nothing less
than dangerous. The constabula-y have
gone to their duty for the moment, hut it
is evident that unless large concessions are
made to them they will not remain, and it
is equally plain that If the Government
once gives way to them sunless they have
the right of the contes,l, it will become
