A PROPER SENTENCE.

The papers OF the Peoples party in
Utah hold Chief Justice Hays, of Idaho,
up to derision and scorn. In this busi-
ness the Ogden Herald takes the palm.
From description Of Judge Hays in the
Herald of yesterday one would imagine
him to be fiend incarnate, the embodi-
ment of all that is vile and hypocritical;
and he is all this merely because he does
not construe the laws in accordance with
the wishes Of the Herald.
The great crime of Judge Hays is that
he rigidly enforces the Edmunds law,
and allows no guilty man to escape. But
it might be supposed, from the TRADES
against Judge Hays, that he was only
severe upon those who violate the Ed
munds law, and connived at the escape of
those criminals who violate other laws
than the Edmunds law. Such is not the
case, though.
As all know, Idaho has been infested
with gang of horse thieves for years
past. These thieves have been the ter
ror of stockmen, and all efforts to bring
them to justice have proved futile. Very
recently couple Of them were caught,
tried and found guilty. This of itself was
something new, but that which follows is
newer still. Judge Hays sentenced one
OF them to twenty years Imprisonment,
and the other to twenty-five years i'm
prisonment. The probabilities are that
the press of the Peoples party will never
mention such thing, but leave their
readers with the impression that Judge
Hays only places the heavy penalty of
the law upon those who have violated the
Edmunds law
When laws are broken, the ends OF JUS
tice are far more often accomplished by
the inhiction of the full penalty of the
law which has been broken than by the
infiction OF the least penalty. Criminals
do not appreciate leniency in the proper
light. They look upon leniency as some
thing gained by cajolery and successful
assumption of contrite look. They
look upon the law rs their enemy, to be
beaten in any way possible. But far
more pernicous than the lenicncy of the
Court is the exercise OF the pardonng
power. This power should always exist,
but it should rarely be used 1t is a
power in an Executive much like the war
power OF the State, and should be used
rs rarely. The exercise of the pardonng
power leads criminals to think that
the sentence OF the law can be
thwarted ii they can but command sui
ficent influence; and there are very few
criminals who cannot command influence
enough to get up petition stating how
good they always have been and how
sorry they now are.
We hope, and believe, that Governor
Stevenson will not undo the good work Of
Judge Hays in sentencing these horse
thieves respectively to twenty and
twenty-five years imprisonment for their
crimes,

FARMERS INSTITUTES.

The farmers of Wisconsin have secured
the passage OF law authorizing the for
nation OF farmers institutes, n very
worthy object, but very poor way
in which to accomplish it. The
farmers OF Wisconsin had no more need
for law to authorize them to form insti-
tutes than they had for law. to author
ize them to raise wheat or fatten cattle
The less law the better, and especially is
this so in matters OF voluntary association
such as farmers institutes.
The object of these institutes is to
get the farmers together during the win
ter months for the purpose OF discuss
ing agricultural matters, and agricul-
tural matters only. To farmers, the
winter months are months OF idleness,
more or less, and the formation OF these
institutes would relieve the monotony OF
winter, and greatly aid the farmers in ev-
cry way. The exchange OF ideas upon
all topics relating to agriculture could not
but be beneficial, and such an exchange
would, naturally, lead to the desire to
improve all classes OF crops and the OBJ
tanning Of better domestic animals. In
these institutes the farmers would dis
cuss the merits OF the different crops and
the best manner OF raising them. They
would also lead to thorough investiga-
ton of the merits OF the different breeds
OF domestic animals, how to rear them,
and how to improve them. There
is also the important question
of feeding, how to produce the
best results ut the least cost. This ques-
ton has never received any considera-
ton in Utah, and most OF our Utah
farmers waste enough feed in winter
time by their method OF feeding to keep
one-half more animals than they do.
The farmers OF Utah thrive in spite OF
their wasteful methods, and were they to
adopt methods OF strict economy and
skill what is now ease would in few
years become affluence.
The farmers OF Utah should organize
farmers institutes and they would find
themselves greatly benefited thereby.
To their institutes they should frequently
invite some one whose knowledge
and experience OF farming and
stock raising gives his view weight,
to lecture to them. Occasionally
these meetings could very profitably be
addressed by some chemist of authority,
and occasionally by skilled veterinary
surgeons. Very few farmers have any
knowledge whatever of veterinary sur
gerry and medicine, and yet they are
called upon almost any day to doctor a
sick COW or lame horse, and the usual
remedies employed are but torture with
out any relief. Let the farmers OF Utah
follow the example OF the farmers of Wis
consin, but omit the law part OF the in
| stitutes

il is the united sentiment of the people OF
Utah against the Edmunds law and the
object that it seeks to accomplish, which
makes the Utah question SO hard to solve,
and furnishes that moral support to the
men convicted of violating the Edmunds
law which causes them to bear imprison-
ment with fortitude, and to look upon
themselves as heroes and martyrs. With
draw the moral support OF the united
sentiment OF the people of this Territory
from these same men, and there is not
one in a thousand but that would avail
himself of the chance to avoid imprson-
ment by promising obedience to the law
in future. The sentiment OF the people
of the United States is as strongly united
| in favor of the Edmunds law as the senti-
ment of the people OF Utah is united
againstit. This being the case, and neither
party proposing to yield, the Utah question
resolves itself into question of force, and
having resolved itself into question Of
force, it is easy to solve the question ac-
cording to the laws of natural philosophy.
Will the laws of natural philosophy teach
us anything but this, that where two
forces of the same nature are opposed to
each other the greater force will overcome
the lesser force?
1t is far better to settle the Utah ques-
ton on some other plan than that OF
~.
insist in trying this plan and will listen to
no other, well and good; but they must
bear in mind that the laws OF the United
States will be enforced in the United
States, and that American institutions as
based upon the monoganic system of the
family will be preserved, cost what it
may.

AMERICAN NOVELISTS.

The Omaha Herald OF November 7th
falls foul of The Nineteenth Century for an
article which recently appeared in that
magazine, and in which American novel;
isis were not spoken OF in the most COM
plimentary terms. The article referred
to appeared in the October number of
The Nineteenth Century and was entitled
"The Novel of Manners" and was by the
Rev. III. ID. Traill, author OF the Life OF
Sterne in the English Men OF Letters
series edited by John Morley.
The article was review OF the English
novel and spoke but incidentally OF James
and Howells, and the criticism upon these
novelists was that they analyzed the mo-
tives OF their characters in place OF so
presenting their characters that the reader
should analyze the motives himself. The
theory OF presenting a character was con-
demned in these two novelists, and not
the manner in which they develop their
theory.
There are two ways in which to present
character, either synthetically or an
alytically. In the one case the motive
OF action is discovered from the action
and the circumstances surrounding the
actor. This is the synthetic method. In
the other case every motive is presented,
every thought is given, and knowing the
state OF mind OF the character drawn, the
action is inferred. In novels constructed
after either plan there is more OF less OF
each method employed, although the
novel will be classified according TO the
preponderance OF either method
The novels OF Richardson are par ercel-
leace constructed upon the synthetic
plan, and were they less long than they
are it would be impossible to Judge OF the
motives OF the actors. Richardson has
been termed the father OF the modern
English novel, and yet this century has
not seen novelist employ his method ol
drawing characters. His method was
the epistolary method. 1t was also the
method OF Fanny Burney, but never OF
Fielding or Smollett. The Rev. Trall
praises Richardson, but condemns Fanny
Burney in unmeasurel terms. Richard
sons fame rests chiefly upon Clarissa
Harlowe, novel in which the interest
does not flag once throughout the entire
eight volumes. But Richardson's Sil
Charles Grandson is almost as famous
as Clarissa Harlowe, and yet il
is an exceedingly dull novel
Sir Charles is the hero, and upon him
concentrates most OF the interest, al
though there is Il lively solicitude iol
Harriet Byron and the Lady Clementina
And yet Sir Charles is the very personifi-
cation OF conceit and pomposity, and is
altogether too good for this world and O
this fact he is ever aware. Evelina /,
infinitely more interesting than Si
Charles Grandson, and so high an au
