The ChiId-B heater.

The crime of numbering children
by beating them to death is becom-
ing more common than civilization
can justify. Following upon the
heels of the Lottie Cook tragedy in
Philadelphia comes an account of
terrible tortures inflicted upon an
eight year-old child in Brunswick,
N. j., from which the poor little suf-
ferer has doubtless died before this
time. The name of the victim is
Emma Abbott, and her murderer
was her foster mother The New
York World, describing the condi-
ton of the little victim to mothers
brutality, says that her body is one
mass of pulpy bruises, her skull is
fractured and she is suffering from
deep burns where the mother applied
a red-hot stove litter to the child's
flesh. The last injuries were aggra-
waited by the mustard plasters which
the mother placed upon the raw
places in order to make the pain
greater. When the child was found
and taken to the city hospital both
eyes were black and swollen out be
yond her nose, her scalp was loos-
ened from the skull and mass of
blood was fostering underneath.
The skin ON the forehead was AFRAID
ed and the skull crushed in behind
her ear. Great red scars five or six
inches long on the girls body show
ed where the ret hot irons had been
used, and there was not spot upon
the little body where the doctor
could lay a finger without giving
pain. Last January the child had
been taken from the Home for Des-
titute Children in Philadelphia and
adopted by the woman Hendricks.
1t does seem that some special
punishment, more severe than any
yet devised, should be provided for
child-beaters. And yet there are
people who will hold up their
hands in holy horror whenever the
whipping post is mentioned as suit
able punishment for the wife and
child beater.

ration so emphatic and so fervent.
On consideration. we are inclined to
assume that the Republican majority
in the Senate will avoid doing any
of the silly things promised for
them by the small chorus of the
discontinued. That party has every
reason to feel doubtful as to its grip
upon popular respect and confidence.
1t will hardly imperil its feeble hope
of recovery and rehabilitation by a
display of purely insensate folly.
Such a display would do no sort of
harm to the Administration, whilst,
on the other hand, it would make a
very unfortunate exhibition of the
Republican party. There is moth
ing so ludicrous and contemplate
as the inability to bear defeat with
dignity.
Let us hcpe-let us 90 so far as
to assume-that the Senate majority
will bear itself with fortitude and
repOse next winter The Democrat
ic party is on trial, and the Repub-
licans, since they profess to desire
nothing so much as complete and
searching test, cannot do better than
stand back and let the case proceed.
OF course we know that Logan can
not be wholly bottled up-that he
must crate or explode; and we are
ready to give him carte blanche
right now Logan has never been
known to harm anything but the
vocabulary or to terrify anything
bigger than an echo. BY all means
let him uncork. And we are ready
to extend this indulgence to any
other smouldering volcano to whom
the ebulition is dangerous or pain
order to believe that the Republi-
cans of the Senate will as body
countenance the silly and suicidal
policy Of anger and obstruction. 1t
is a policy from which they have
nothing to hope and everything to
fear washington Post.

What Will the Harvest BE ?

We had long cold winter, which
Tapped over on the spring months,
and after the cold weather we have
had, until recently, lack of suf-
ficient rain to favor vegetation.
Nevertheless, we cannot discern from
the face of nature, at this stage, that
there is any very marked degree of
backwardness in the season. There
may be the difference of week
or ten days in the condition
of some Of the early vegetables and
fruits, as compared with other years,
but this will not make much differ
ence when the results of the season
are summed up. As a general rule
when the spring is what we call "a
little late the season proves produc-
tive. We escape the damage from
frosts, and vegetation has an unin-
terrupted and rapid growth.
This will be the experience this
year, if we may judge from the
present outlook. We will have
productive season in all the vegcta-
bles and fruits, and in all the grains
with the exception of wheat, which
suffered from the severe winter Even
the wheat we expect to turn out bet
ter than anticipated. Many fields
will present the appearance of q
light crop. The ground will be bare
in spots. but a favorable season until
harvest will make every head of
wheat bear it's full proportion of
grain, and the net result will be
equal to that of years when appear
anccs were more favorable
Looking at the whole situation
the season is propitious, and our
farmers have reason to he encourage
ed with the outlook.

Wneer Work..

IL is convincing evidence Of the
favor with which our water enter.
prise is received by our people to
find that they continue to meet every
money demand made upon them in
this behalf
The additional demand made by
the Improvement Company for
81, 800 has been met. The company
has so nearly exhausted its resources
in the gas enterprise that they have
nothing left for water except the
will to push it forward and ask for
help.
But our people do not estimate the
value of water works A supply Of
pure soft water is the one thing
lacking to make Morgantown de
lightful place to live. The lack of it
the fact that our wells furnish
water that is almost useless for do
nestle purposes. and that it is
thoroughly impure and unhealthy
ought to stimulate our people to
make every effort in their power to
obtain so valuable an acquisition as
is contemplated in this enterprise.
We do not know whether the I'm
provement Company will succeed in
perfecting their arrangements for
the water plant or not, but we think
we do know--wc feel well assured
that if they cannot aud do not very
soon, the town will be ready to vote a
sufficient sum to establish and own
the works exclusively And no bet
ter investment could be made by the
town-thc town should never have
thrown away the opportunity to own
the works.

The CONNIE N ememt Season.

Another years work is about to
be concluded at the two educational
institutions, the University and Fe-
male Seminary-the Commencement
exercises of the latter will be held
this week, and the former next week.
Our people. in town and county,
are accustomed to look forward to
Commencement week. with an in
terest almost as great as that of the
students. There ought to be. "a gen
eral interest throughout the State in
the Commencement occasion at the
State University. Doubtless there
would be a larger attendance from
abroad if the means of access were
more speedy and comfortable. This
difficulty, we had hoped, would have
been overcome by the completion of
our railway before this time. But
We HiuoI ""io dhpthci y Cai ipi onc
realization of this help to our Com
mencement season. The students
and visitors will return home this
year by the old mud road, but we
have strong hope that they will come
back next September behind the
iron horse.
We think also that there has been
a falling away of the spirit of hospi-
tality-or rather of the conviviality
which characterised Commence
ment occasions in other years of the
history Of the University. The Re-
gents were then in the habit of hav-
ing kind Of estate Dinner" at

The President and the Senate.


Thus far the country does not ex-
hibit any great amount of alarm
over the threats which are being
rather literally thrown out by Re
publican papers with reference to
the action of the Senate next win
ter. The conjectural terrors, al
though couched in the most grizzly
and blood-curdling vein, seem to
fly wide of their mark, or, if they
strike at all, to SILVER upon an eX-
terror which victory and possession
and clear conscience have conspir-
ed to render impenetrable. Alto
gether, it is breezy spectacle in
these piping summer days to gaze
upon the average Stalwart, heated
with anger and shaking its fist fran
tically at the Administrator as it
pours forth furious prophesy OF
what is going to happen when the
Senate meets. 1t is only natural to
find exquisite amusement in the
situation. Lounging pleasantly on
the shaded balcony and lazily
Watching bevy of feverish fellow
creatures striving in the red hot sun
outside must be recognized by every
judicious person as very high or
der of luxury. One is willing to
endure little noise for such a con-
sideration
But, after all, what reason is there
in supposing that the Senate will dc
such foolish things as are prophesi-
ed by the Republican oracles? 1t
certainly could not have been ex-
pected that the President would APP
point other than good Democrats to
the positions at his disposal, and in
this he has fully met public expec-

The good effects of change in
the national administration are al
ready visible in the New York Gus
tom House. One of Secretary Man
ning's first acts after he took charge
of the Treasury Department was tC
direct all collectors to cut down the
expenses of their establishments as
much as should be possible without
impairing the efficiency of the ser
vice. The result is that Collector
Robertson finds only 1921, 600 needed
for the pay roll Of the New Yorb
Custom House in May, although he
demanded $4,000 on this account
for the month preceding the Presi
Dental election. In other words. the
Collector confesses that reduction
of full ninth can be made in the
running expenses without harm tC
the public interest, humiliating as
such an admission of extravagant
management must necessarily be &c
him. If Collector Robertson, with
the natural motive to conceal reck
less expenditures, has to own up tC
the fact that S29, 900 a month can be
saved as well as not, there is nc
question that thorough overhaul
ing of the establishment by a new
chief committed to business like
administration would show the feas
Utility of much more thorough re

Startling as this exposure of dis
honest extravaganza and systematic

only specimen case. For about
fifteen years we have been engaged
in exhibiting the fruits of Robber-
sonism in the Navy Department. As
we have shown time and time again
the progress of rigid and impartial
investigation which the first honest
and fearless Secretary of the Navy
since 1860 proposes to apply to the
Mohican, would reveal in the case of
almost every other vessel of the
United States, wooden or ironclad,
the same enormous disproportion
between the amount of money
