The Democrats of Wayne forgot
their wisdom Un Tuesday and per-
mitted the election of DR.. Pitts to
the Legislature. We say permit.
ted because we know the DemOcra-
cy is the strong party in the cOun-
ty, and has often defeated DIR. Pitts
for office. This should not have
been so, gentlemen OF Wayne.
Mr.. Gray was the nominee in ac-
cordance with rules laid down by a
Democratic convention of the conn
ty, aud should not have had dis
satisfaction thus visited upon him.
DR., Pitts majority is about 100
votes.-ShubWtd Messenger.
Such short sightedness is becom-
ing entirely too prevalent in the
Democratic ranks of this State.
We have some %malcontents in this
country who seem willing to risk
the ruin of their party for the sake
of a little independence, so-called.

assigned.
4. Call on the dull pupil to recite as
frequently as the bright one, if not more
frequently.

CHEAP LABOR.

Connecticut has established labor
bureau. The chief OF this bureau is Mr..
Arthur I. Hadley. He has issued re-
port, in which he reviews the question of
foreign cheap labor. AS was to be ex-
pected, this report says that foreign cheap
labor should not be employed and cites
the Chinese us an example. But this is not
all. Chief Hadley says that the French
Canadians have Il standard of living
which it would be a misfortune to Ameri-
can workmen to adopt. What this
standard is we know not, but the French
Canadians are a strong, healthy and
hardy race, and their standard of living
cannot be greatly inferior toproduce such
a race. Their standard of living no doubt
teaches them frugality, and irugality is
the thing which the majority of working
men need above all things. Frugality
means thrift, and thrift is the great de-
sideratum OF the laboring classes. Chief
Hadley says that il Italian immigration
to Connecticut increases for the next five
years rs it has in the past five years,
very perplexing social problem will re-
suit. Connecticut can scarcely bring
against the French Canadians and the
Italians the same charges that are
brought against the Chinese on the Coast.
1t is but a year or two since the Hun
garians who went to Pennsylvania were
set upon and mobbed by the miners OF
that State, and against these poor Hun
garians the charge was brought that their
standard OF living was 30 low that their
very presence was menace to American
workmen. When anything does not suit
Il certain class they sound the dema-
gogue cry about protecting the
American laborer. America has been
the home OF inventive genius,
and this genius has produced its wonder
full results because labor in America was
scarce and dear, and labor-saying ma
chinery has been brought to its present
perfection because the supply OF laboring
men was insufficient The American
workman deserves every encouragement.
but what he needs most of all is to school
himself in the ways OF domestic economy
and to frequent the grog shop less. Ex-
travagance and grog are the great ene-
mics OF the American workman, and the
sharp competition to which he finds him
self subjected by foreign labor will be
found to greatly diminish ii he abandons
the ways OF extravaganza and vicious
pleasure,

THE PUNISHMENT AND THE CRIME

There is genuine sense of progress
and fitness of things in the Mikado's de-
termination to "make the punishment fit
the crime" To make the punishment
exactly fit the crime is very delicate
operation and requires much experience.
Captain John Goldman, gentleman well
known in Utah, is of the opinion that the
crime OF unlawful cohabitation and the
punishment therefor do not fit, at least
30 a reporter in the Boston Trarcller says.
He says that the punishment for unlaw
ful cohabitaton should be increased He
rightly thinks that the crown of martyr
dom is too cheap at six months, and says
that the punishment for unlawful cohabi-
tation should be increased to five
years. Increase the punishment to
five years imprisonment with hard
will think twice before they choose "mar-
tyrdom" in preference to obediencee to the
laws. The reasons for choosing "martyr-
dom" are not M over anxiety TO be con-
sistent and to adhere to religion, but are
chiefly the fear of social ostracism and the
jeers and sneers Of co-religionsts. This is
not so with some but we believe it to be the
case with the majority. Ii the price of
''martyrdom" was raised from six months
to five years, perhaps the power of social
ostracsm and OF jeers and sneers would
be greatly lessened. The men who go to
jail in preference to obeying the law make
d choice between two fears, and the fear
that the finger OF scorn will be pointed at
them in the community in which they
dwell is greater than the fear OF prison
walls for a few months. The Government
should follow the Mikado's advice, and
make the punishment fit the crime.
Another thing that should be done is
to provide q prison in which every pris-
oner would be confined in cell by him
self. These cells should be light and
airy, and during a portion OF the day the
sun should shine into each of them.
But the silent system should be pre-
served. The Utah Penitentiary is dis
grace to the Government and an outrage
upon humanity. Perhaps Utah will have
a decent place in which to contine Grim
inals when the reign of peace for thous-
and years shall be ushcred in, but we
doubt if it has one before, Society owes
it rs much to itself to confine the offend
ers against it in Il decent place, as it does
to protect itself from their lawlessness.
