A little girl gave her father the most i'm

when, in answer to the Question, "What was
the minister's te1tr' she replied, Keep your
soul on top" Challenged to find the text,
she discovered that it read, II keep under
my body" But she had got the right inter
pretation of it. He who keeps his soul on
top, but makes his body strong and vigor-

two conditions of physical well being, and
will have what is the essence of true man

Now comes the announcement tina
another effort is to be made to break
the power of the stupendous monopoly
known as the Standard Oil company. A
company for that purpose is now being
formed. at Toledo, O., representing $685.
100000, which will obtain its supplies
from the oil wells of Northern Ohio" 1t
is stated that this will probably prove
the most vigorous competitor the Stand
ard has ever had, but it is doubtful
whether it is strong enough to accomplish
the work it has undertaken. As long as
the rivalry lasts the public will be the
benefciaries. However, should the new
corporation succeed in breaking the
power of the Standard it will simply sue
coed that monopoly; if it fails, as it most
likely will, it will join in and from new
trust. And they will make up their
losses in short order.

In an article in the American Law Re
view Justice Miller. of the supreme
court, advocates a modification of the
jury law so as not to require unani-
nous verdict except in those cases whose
penalty is death. He adduces in sup
port of his position the fact that no
where else in the practical affairs of life
Is entire unanimity required in determin-
ing a line of action. And besides. when
unanimity is made essential 10 the YER
dict, justice it often defeated by the bias
and stubborness or incapacity of enc or
two members of the jury. Besides these
arguments adduced by Justice Miller, is
the temptation which is offered of tam
pering with jury to prevent an agree
ment or securing the choice of jury
man with view To a hung Jury.
Though unanimity in the verdict is as
old rs the jury system, yet there is
growing belief throughout the country
that change i'm the direction indicated
by Justice Miller is demanded in the
interest of justice.

cessful construction of this tunnel. dug
from dark corner of the cellar of the

the only tools being two broken chisels
and a wooden spittoon in which to carry
out the dirt,--was one of the most re-

FROM THE COUNTY ATTORNEY

Owing to the unwarranted notorietv

charged the duties of county attorney, l
nave concluded that as the people and
tax payers of Sedgwick county are en-
titled to a statement of how l have
transacted their business to give them q
brief synopsis.
have considered that the two great
duties incumbent upon the county attor-
ney is to punish the criminal and protect
the tax payer. With reference to the
former will respectfully refer all criti-
Ching friends to the records of our

that during NV term, that Is now but

A bad course invariably makes cow
ards of its champions and causes them
to over estimate their opponents strength
The great and powerful nation that tries
to bully the weak and helpless very often
proves itself a coward. frightened at its
own shadow. England has proved this
true in its treatment of Ireland. Glad
stone aptly summed up the situation
when he said that $4,000 900 people are
afraid of 100000. All of the odious CO.
ercion laws made to intimidate the Irish
spirit was called out by this cowardly
fear of the majority for the minority.
1t is because England knows that its
treatment of Ireland is cruel ana unjust
that it is in such constant terror of what
the outraged spirit of Irish liberty may do.
There is no terror like the terror of a re
proving conscience. ApropoS of this
condition as to the attitude of the English
government toward Ireland the pope's
advice to the Irish bishops to urge the
people of Ireland to prudence and respect
for law is good and timely. There is no
doubt that he sympathizes deeply with
the Irish people in their struggle for self
government. But like safe and wise
counsellor he deprecates resorts To VIC
Fence ahd urges them IL conform To the
laws and not seek to oyerturn them by
force. The pope is. therefore, in line
with the counsels of Parnell and other
home rule leaders. They are satisfied
that lreland's salvation can be worked
out through constitutional methods and
can only be imperiled by resorts to force
and violence.
