Before Election. - The practice of
chicken-stealing, which our opponents pro-
fess to consider so reprehensible, is not
only quite innocuous in itself, but it is the
hope and preservation of the country, and
should be encouraged and upheld by all
true patriots"
After Eiection.-"The country has
passed its verdict upon chicken-sfealing,
and has declared that it must cease. 1t is
dangerous, most vicious practice, and
no words of ours can condemn it in terms
too positive or too scathing."

Germany is the only civilized country
in the world wherein murderers are still
beheaded with an axe or sword. Neither
old Emperor William nor his predeces-
sor, King Frederick William ", could
ever be induced to sign death warrants,
and hence capital punishment had be-

however, shares none of the views enter
tanned by his predecessors in this respect.
Executions have become frequent, and
hardly week passes by without the
