The death OF President Garfield at
the hands of the assassin Guiteau, and
the efforts made by lawyer Scoville,
Gniteau's brother.in-law, to save him
from the gallows are still fresh in the
minds Of the public. The "tables," so
to speak ahave been turned" and now
lawyer Scoville has been sent to Jail for
refusing to pay fifteen dollars allimony
due his divorced wife. The yillianous
crime OF Guiteau wrecked his sisters
happiness, broke up her once happy
homo and cast her and her husband a
Wraokx ron The dark sea of despair.
There Is a lesson with a deep moral
attached to this entiia affair, aad those
who have an uncomfortable desire to
take human life, without any warranty
therefor, may we'll hesitate and cons
slider the consequences. Guiteau was
.undoubt edly crazed when he COM
mlsled the deed, but the rctribuiion
