The present methods of the Courts
Of this country in dealing with crimi-
mails seems to be that suggested by the
criminal who was sentenced to death,
and given the privilege of choosing
the manner of his death. "What
manner do you choose?" asked the
Magistrate.
II prefer to die of old age, sir!' re-
piled the prisoner.
And that seems to be the manner
Of inficting the death penalty toward
which all the Courts are drifting, and
which many Of them have practically
adopted.

To the Editors of the Standard:
Memory. still reverts to my old
home and its cherished scenes, and
with due reverence to the scenes of
my youth and the many friends in
Ohio, whom l have been separated
from the past four months. I Icannot
refrain from speaking In the highest
terms of the country and climate in
which am now journeying. Here
we have had the gentleness Of spring
through all the winter months, and
even now the the farmers are turning
the soil preparatory to sowing oats,
and the trees are sending forth buds,
and the blue birds are heard to whis-
tie their welcome song of spring.
How different is this change of scene
compared with the severe winter Of
my native cline. The hardy s'rlw-
berry has produced blossoms through
the entire winter. Two crops year
are said to be grown from certain
kinds of vegetables.
Vegetable and fruit culture appears
to be the chief industry in this section
of the country, and those engaged in
it are said to be doing a thriving busi-
ness. Pea planting has already be-
gun, and the entire country wears the
aspect of thrift and enterprise. Peo-
pie from all sections of the Union are
focking to this fair land of promise.
People of means and intelligence
people who Travelled thousands of
miles in search Of homes in a genial
climate, and have pitched their tents
here under the Sunny Skies of Arkan-
sas.
The temperance cause is now agi-
tating the minds Of the people in this
county, and local option Tor the three
mile law now holds the reins of the
entire county, as there is not a single
saloon within its borders. It fills me
with a sense Of pleasure to know that
l am in community where peace and
good society are predominant feat
ures.
The school system where I am at
present is another feature in the gen.
eral make up Of this country. Judso-
MIA has primary School and Univer-
sity, where scholars may graduate in
all the normal branches. have been
very we'll pleased with this country
since 1 have been here, and expect to
remain here during the summer, and
may eventually make it my future
home, and you will please change my
paper from Flat, Ohio, to West Point,
White Co., Ark.
With best wishes for your own, and
the peoples prosperity in Jackson
County, I am respectfully yours,
MILTON M. KELLER.

At Hazelton, mining town near
Wilkesbarre, Pa, the work Of retim-
bering the mines-which extend be-
meath the town was in progress,
when a portion of the surface caved
in, distance of three feet 1t is now
feared that the entire town will set
tie, thus causing, not only much dam
age to property, but serious loss Of
life. This has been subject much
talked of in the early days of shaft
mining in Jackson, but there was
never thought to be any serious dan
ger. There were some two or three
small settings here, but they did not
amount to much.

COLUMbUS, w., leu. % 4OOI.
During the past week a large
amount Of work has been done by the
Legislature.
In the House six bills were intro
duced, and in the Senate nine.
twenty-five bills were passed by
the House and fifteen by the Senate.
Twenty bills were signed and be-
came laws.
Total number of bills introduced up
to present time: In Senate Is; House
1S9; total 264.
Of the bills passed this week the
bills known as the 'Civil Rights Bill" !"
and the Redistricting bill, we're those
upon which the greatest amount Of
discussion was had.
The bill amending the Scott Law,
which passed the House and is pend
ing in the Senate, changes the present
law as follows: It provides that the
payment of the "tax" shall be made
in June and December, and repeals
what is known as the "McConnells-
vile Ordinance" part of the law, or.
in other words, the local option clause.
This bill will, I think, be amended in
the Senate.
A joint resolution has been intro
duced in the Senate by Mr.. Elliott,
providing for submitting proposition
to amend the constitution so as to
provide for the regulation Of the
liquor traffic, by license graded in
amount according to the business
done This could not be voted upon
by the people until Oct. 1885.
On Thursday Senator O'Brien Of
fered the following joint resolution:
'Be it resolved by the General As
sembly of the State of Ohio, That we
hereby request our Representatives,
and direct our Senators in Congress
from Ohio, not to vote upon any bill
or resolution now pending in Congress
until they hear from the Ohio Legis-
lature."
This resolution was adopted in the
Senate and sent to the House, when
the Speaker held that it was an insult
to the House and would not have it
read.
Senator Reed returned from Erie,
Pennsylvania. to-day, where he has
been taking testimony in the investi-
cation Of the case Of Senator Fassett.
There are more members here than
usual during the tri-weekly adjourn
ment, as some of them cannot get |
home on account of the flood.

sbtaiued indefinite leave on account |

Our subscription list is gradually
increasing. For several weeks we
have been printing 66 quires, or 1854
papers. Last week we did not have
enough papers, and some of our sub
scribers did not get any papers. This
will explain the cause. This week we
print 81 quires, or 1908 papers, and if
new subscribers continue to come in
as they did last week, we will soon
have to add another quire.

1t is a noticeable fact that where
the Legislature have had an opportun-
ity, during the present session, to fill
an office, they have given colored men
and ex-soldiers who were formerly
Republicans, precedence over life
long Democrats. We do not object
to this, in the least, but many of the
"old-liners" wonder what they are
getting out of the Democratic victory
in Ohio.

curiosity about the size Of your feet.

Sergeant Mason, his wife and baby,
have been on exhibition in a Cincin-
natl museum, for some days. The
only Distinguishing feature about the
Sergeant is the fact that he tried to
murder the murderer, Guiteau. The
Sergeant and Guiteau seemed to be a
good deal alike, and the formers con-
duct proved that he was at heart as
much Of murderer as the latter.
But he had the drawback Of being a
poor marksman.
