Senator Chace, of Rhode Island has
resigned his seat because his salary as
Senator, $4,000 per annupl, is not
enough to pay him to neglect his pri-
vate business for longer time. That
wise body of men would like to have
their salaries doubled, knowing that at
$4,000 a year they could do their dear
people at home more good in the latest
fashionable manner. Living without
style in Washington is not only not fash
ionable but is also very near to bring
disgraceful and the poor man will have

At the little dance given in Washing

$4,000 was made in pure cash. It is
proposed to turn this sum over for the
benefit of the poor people of that city.
OF course this applies to the Office seek

not as poor as the historical Jobs tur-

President Harrison showed his good
judgement when he recently appointed
Hon. A. G.. Mellette of Watertown as
Governor of Dakota whose term of Of
fee lasts as long as Dakota remains a
Territory. Governor Mellette is not an
Importation, nor can the term carpet
Dagger apply with any fitness to him.
He is of the people and for the the peo-
pie of that long disenfranchised terri
tory and, unlike his predecessor, will
not suffer the red-tape formality which
characterized Church's administration
to cut any figure in his official career.

Last Friday the people of Minneapo-
lis had the satisfaction of seeing the
law assert itself in the case of the Bar
rett boys and penalty for the commits
sion of serious crime measured out in
the shape of hangman's moose. False
and tender sentiment has spoken out
against this mode of punishment which
is as old as history itself and many ways
for disposing of criminals has been sug-
gested in place Of capital punishment.
Serious diseases need serious and des.
perate remedies; serious red-handed
crimes need like penalties in case oftheir
commission. The first thought of the
average murderer is, can escape from
the penalty of the law, and take away
from his mind the thought of the gal
lows and its terrors, let him know that
through the trickery and very often un.
demanded means of some scheming
lawyer and the loose condition of the
construction of our criminal laws, he
will figure the chance of escape as al
most certain and commit murder with
only a thought of how to escape. False
sentiment has no right to stand in the
place of solemn duty; the tears and
prayers of Mrs. Barrett for executive
pardon for her sons were but womanly
natural and heartfelt but they cannot
dry those on the cheeks of the murdered
man s wife nor call back TO life the one
cruelty shot down. The state, out OF
respect for the honor of its name and
the sacradness of human life, gave the
Barretts punishment if anything un-
equal to the nature of their offense
against it. Certain it is that crime will
increase unless the punishment for it is
not certain. quick and effective and if
the shadow of the gallows and the sight
of a moose is not potent enough to keep
men from committing murder then sure.
ly life imprisonment, electricity or any
other plans of punishment proposed by
would be reformers will fall far short of
their purpose. Do not make heroes OF
assassins nor smother them with in beds
of flowers to pass peacefully away with

The Duluth and Winnipeg land grant
extension bill met it's just deserts at the
hands of the Senate last week. When
it is necessary to open up a new and
sparsely settled country to develop its
resources and to swell the tide of i'm
migration it is needful perhaps to offer
railroad Company . bonus in the
shape of a land grant to hasten its con-
struction but Minnesota at this late day
cannot afford to bid for rich railroad
corporations and offer them its now
rich and valuable acres simply as an in.
ducement to construct railroad. It is
hoped that the road will be built at
time when it's stockholders can see the
way clear to warrant them in paying at
least fair nominal price for the lands
over which it is to run. Railroad COM
panies usually are rich and no longer
should be treated as infants and fed with
public lands.

open up a law Office in st. Peter and

g..
A bill has been introduced in the
legislature to provide for the adoption
of the Rhines system of balloting at
elections. The system is simple and is
this: AFTER an elector has been found
to be entitled 70 vote he goes to the
place in which the voting machine is
standing. He sees before him a box
with cover. Raising the cover, which
sounds bell, number of rows OF
keys, or buttons, are disclosed. Each
row presents some one party, and each
row is ia different color. On the face
of each key is the name of the candi-
date, while on the side of the key is the
name of the Office. The voter presses
a button and it remains down. 1t has
pressed against roll of paper under
meath, making clear mark of figure,
which figure is the total number of
votes that particular candidate up to
that time has received. He does this
with as many candidates as he wishes
to vote for, each vote being recorded
in the same manner. When he has
voted he shuts down the lid:o the
machine, the keys are released and the
box is ready for the next voter. When
the last vote is polled the machine has
faithfully recorded and country every
vote, and it only remains for the in

We are not at all ambitious, but we
would like to change places with Gov.
Merriam tor about sixty seconds, or
long enough to affix his signature to a
pardon for all three of the Younger
Brothers. They have been sufficiently
punished, and the ends ofjustice are fully
subserved. They have been exemplary
prisoners, and, were they free men to-
day. we believe, they would make good
and useful citizens the remainder of their
days. we have always believed that the
Younger Brothers were more sinned
against than SHINING. Circumstances
znade them what they are.
The above extract taken from the
Princeton Union does not sound like
Bob Dunn. He seems to have lost sight
of the fact the Younger brothers are
serving out their sentences for completely
in the murder of mai whose only Of
fence was an unfinching devotion to
duty-a man who sacrificed his life to
this band OF red-handed robbers rather
than betray his trust. The crime was
premeditated murder for money-a muir
der cody planned and executed i'll excep-
~tionally high-handed defiance of law. II
ever there were criminals who deserved
all the punishment the law can inf1ict
the Younger brothers are the ones.

PROOF OR NO CHARGE.

Editor Herald.-A great deal has been
published by the papers of this state
charging the members of the legislature
with corruption. 1t is a, very easy mat
ter for an editor to sit in his Office and
through mere malice, hatred or ill-will,
write a bitter article, de%nouncing legisla-
tive bodies with corruption, making
wholesale charges, but giving no proof.
1t is time this ~disgraceful Islander was
ended. 1t is a disgrace to this state to
have such charges made against her law
makers. Now let the men who have
made the charges produce the proof or
stand before the world as wilful, mali
cious liars. Every member of the legisla-
ture owes it to himself to demand the
proof of these men who make these
charges and if they will not produce the
proof, to brand them as liars and falsi-
fiers, unworthy of the least credit. Make
them show who furnished the money and
who disbursed it, and to whom. And
thus a foul stain will be taken from the
halls of legislation which are claimed to
be reeking with corruption most foul.

There is more to the Bulow case than
was supposed when the discussion began
in the Minneapolis papers last week, and
it is the opinion of many lawyers who
have examined the facts in the case that
he should not not be hanged under the
sentence. A case of a man pleading gull
ty to murder in the first degree when the
punishment is hanging, is a very strange
one, and has no precedent in the United
States where a man vas hung by the
law on his own plea or evidence. Bulow
was sentenced or his own plea of guilty,
with no other evidence and that plea
was o considered by a jury, but by the
court. In an Indiana case that was
somewhat similar the supreme court
held that the sentence imposed by the
court could not stand and that the plea
of guilty was for the consideration OF the
jury. Attorney c. A. Lindbersh, who
was appointed by the court to defend
-Bulow, is giving the case careful study
and is now in St. Paul to place the mat
ter before the proper authorities.-Litth

In the Notwithstanding cases in Mime
apolis, whereby several conspirators sue
ceeded in defrauding the Union Elevator
company of 25 900 bushels of wheat, one
Harley was arraigned on a charge of
grand larceny, but the court held that
the charge could not be sustained under
the indictment, as the offences charged
were separately SO small that they on
stituted a series of petty larcenies only.
He plead guilty to petty larceny and was
sentenced to pay a fine of 500. Many
of the state papers seem to consider it
strange that the aggregation of petty
larcenies do not constitute grand larceny,
without stopping to consider the effect
in other cases of so aggregating offences
1t is true that in this case the sum of the
small crimes was a great one, but the
case is exceptional i'll all its aspects. The
law is all right-the case is all wrong.
