Gov. Boyd Ousted.

Cleveland Plain Dealer.l
The Nebraska Supreme Court
yesterday decided the gubernator-
ial contest in that State by ousting
Boyd, the Democratic candidate
elected by plurality of Liza, but
whose citizenship was disputed,
There were three candidates in
the election and the Republican
was the lowest of the three, Boyd
having l, 144 votes more than Pow
ers, his Farmers Alliance compet-
itor, and 2,453 more than Richards,
the Republican. The Supreme
Court dicision that Gusts Boyd on
the ground that his citizenship
was never perfected declares that
the disqualification of Boyd con-
tinues in Office Gov. Thayer, the
Republican, whose term had eXpir-
ed, but who for some time fortified
himself in the Governors room.
The case will be at once taken to
the United States Supreme Court
on the ground that the question of
naturalization is q federal one, and
the counsel for Gov. Boyd express
confidence of success in that court.

Tendency of the Labor Movement.

Tendency of the Labor Movement.
Boston Post.
The tendency of the labor move
ment, or of those who appear to con-
troll it, seems to be in two direc-
tiOns inimical to the best interests
of society-in the first place in re.
stricting the facilities of the young
to learn trades at all, and then in
the management Of onr penal in
stitutions refornatOries in forbid
ding convicts to acquire the knoWl-
edge Of handling machinery. The
logical result of this is to increase
the idle and hence vicious, classes OF
the community. In the second place
the provision made by the trades
unions for the support of the men
who are called out on strikes, often
for the most trivial causes; natu-
rally this educates men to live in
idleness and upon the avails and
savings of other peoples labor, a
sure process of pauperization.
These tendencies are not SC
much to the detriment of the capi.
talist as to the majority of the com.
munity who have acquired some
little property and who are, at any
rate, in the aggregate, the princi,
pal taxpayers: "The middling in
terest," so to speak. The danger is
that this thing will be allowed tC
go on, because our Legislators think
'the labor vote" essential to them
until the inevitable result of hare
times awaken those who are OF
should be Independent, and n sweep
ing change will be made. We shall
learn that one reduction leads tC
another; that we can not live anC
prosper without work; that com
munism cannot be the rule of life
for free people, and that legisla
tion cannot remedy all the ills o
life. Every man must have the
right to dispose of his own labor az

FALSE IDEAS OF THE Law.

Considering further the cool and un-
blushing demand of the Minnesota Ath-
letic Club, that a violation Of the law be
permitted and bonds taken for the pay
ment of the fine, 1t is worthy of note that
there obtains among some people the idea
that the sole purpose of penal laws Is the
fnfiiction of punishment. That is, that If
the penalty is paid the offense is ex plated
1t is very true that we speak of convict
who serves his time as expiating his
offense, and he does, to the extent that
he should not be followed by society with
new penalties for the old crime.
But the false sentiment to which we
refer, and which was prominent in the
case at st. Paul, is that one has license to
commit crime, if he can give assurance
that he will suffer the penalty. In very
many cases where law is broken, and
the offender is proceeded against. he de-
fends or appeals and continues pending
the legal contest, and without protest, in
the commission of the offense for which
he was proceeded against.
1t testifies to an erroneous conception
OF the purposes Of government wherever
communities tolerate such a practice
The true rule is that if one is pursuing o
course forbidden by law, and is checked
by prosecution, he should be compelled
IN SnSnapd biS iUauaJ Ioinu tIa
judgment of court sustains his defense.
But, as is well known, the very common
practice is to permit the illegal doing
pending the trial and final determination
Of the case before court.
The law is not created for the purpose
of penalties. The penalty is an incident
of the law, essential, it is true, to its re-
straining power; but what the law for
bids is inhibited because the rights of
men in life, property and the pursuit of
happiness are infringed. 1t does not and
cannot give license for continued offend
ing and the multiplication of of1enses,
because in single instance a case re-
mains undetermined. The proposition at
st. Paul was to submit to the payment Of
the penalty provided the authorities
would permit the crime to be commit
ted. In other words, the impudent prop
osition was to buy. an indulgence, as if
the sole end of the law is to collect GER
tain fines as the price of offending.

THE Epoch is amazed that in the chief
city of the nation the celebration of the
Fourth of July by the reading of the
Declaration of Independence, and by
speeches more or less patriotic, should be
left almost wholly to the .Tammany So
ciety.
To be sure, the Tammany Society or Column
bia Order, which has long history-and one
that is In part, at least, patriotic-is not
Identical with the political organization that
has Its headquarters in Tammany Hail. but IL
Is closely associated with it, and is largely
made of Its leaders and members The asso-
citation is not altogether a savory one, and the
two Organizations can hardly. maintain sep
arate regulations In the public mind It
seems as though there might be a proper cele-
bration OF the Fourth of July in New York.
which should not be turned into an occasion
OF partisan congratulatfon and appeal by
either political party. That of Tammany is
always distinctiyely and obtrusively q Demo
cratic affair.
The RECoRD-UNIoN remarked upon the
fact at the time, that in the nations great
metropolis so little was thought of the
national birthday, that Washington's
memory was crowded to the wall by
laudations of David B. Hill, and that the
reading of the Declaration, the charter OF
our liberties, was but family heard be-
tween the political harangues of bitter
partisans. The truth is, as things are
now going, New York viii presently be
entitled to be designated as 'the city that
is out of the United States"

CONVICT FARMING-OUT.

While the Tennessee rioting coal miners
cannot be apologized for in their outrage
Gus resistance to lawful authority, the in
cidenJ of the riot melted by the convict
rental system of the South will make
headway for the sentiment that demands
the abolition of the farming-out method.
The dispatches inform us that public
sympathy is with the miners in their pro-
test, while it condemns the means en-
ployed by them.
1t is strange indeed that nearly all the
people ofthe State Of Tennessee are bitterly
opposed to the rental convict system, and
yet are unable to elect Legislature that
will repeal the law. Perhaps, now that
the Briceville rioting and defiance of law
have brought the subject so prominently
forward, that the force of public senti-
ment will compel the passage of a re-
pealing act by the next Tennessee Legis-
lature. Certainly the coal region diff
culties will tend strongly to emphasize
the protest in the South against the sys-
tenn, for it obtains in several Southern
States, and was born of feeling of ami
mostly to the negro, who, for the pettiest
of offenses has been sent to the State
Prison and converted into a felon, and
then farmedout to contractors to be
worked in prison camps in swamps,
deep mines and at other hard tasks.
OF course the contractor has no COM
passion for such prisoners; he works
them to death without pang of rebuking
conscience; he starves, beats and wounds
them; he houses them in such manner
that they suffer intensely and die of
wanton neglect, lack of nourishment and
medical treatment, and from brutal as
saults and the lash of the task-master
He has only money in view; If he can
coin convict into dollars and cents it
matters not TO him that the man perishes
in the process.
Enlightened public sentiment will not
long tolerate these abuses; but it is shame
ful that by connivance of the law they
should be possible in any part of such a
country as ours. The hopeful sign is
such as the Tennessee riots has made
manifest, that the people are beginning
TO feel shame for the infamous custom,
and that their sympathies are now
actively enlisted in the work of abolish
the convict rental infamy.

SHE NEVER GOES.
The Woman Who just Drops In On
An Errand.


We are all acquainted with her, the
woman who never goes, who drops in for
call in the busiest part of the morning
| it little matters whether it is washing day
or ironing day; it is all the same to her.
Your irons may grow cold and the
| clothes may boil over, but still she stays.
She usually mentions that she has
dropped in on little errand. 1t is prob
ably borrowing errand. Only after she
has exhausted your patience and produced
as much decentralization in your house
hold as she can, she is ready to go. But
oh, the going If you have any idea that
she is really going, you are quite certain
to be disappointed. She comes back to
tell you about some neighbor you had
plain the why's and wherefores of certain
goings on in the neigborhood in which
you take no interest, and then she fingers
at the door and keeps you standing far
beyond your strength. 1t is impossible
to calculate the time that is wasted by
well-nleanlng women in such ways as
this. 1t would be an excellent thing if
calls of all kinds could in some way be
limited to ten-minute rule.
In the social world among women of
leisure it is considered in bad form to
lengthen ones visit beyond a set period,
and when woman has numerous ac-
quaintances she usually has a visiting
day, and can be certain of freedom from
interruption during the rest of her time.
| There is considerable excuse for the
much abused mot at home" which is
| frequently used by women of society.
and which simply means not at home to
visitors, or engaged. and there is no
reason for any ones taking of1ense in the
matter. Only working women, the busy
farmers wives or women who do their
own work, are subject to the annoyance
of the unannounced visitor whoiS bound
| by no social law as to her arrival or de-
parture or her length OF stay. She is one
| uncertain quantity in all the routine of
! the household.
| 1t would take a keen mathematician to
calculate the amour tof spoiled dinners,
spoiled washing and actual loss of money
value for which she is responsible, to say
nothing of the loss Of temper and general
misery consequent upon a disarrangcd
! household, delayed duties and work put
| out of joint. The very worst effect is
| that upon the visitor herself Her own
work must to go awry while she spends
! her time gossiping about the neighbor-
| hood. Her own character deteriorates
while she becomes what our grand
mothers were won't to call ''gad-about."
| Though she may have the most amiable
intention when she unconsciously repeats
the interesting stories Of the neighhor-
! hood, the temptation to enlarge, to inn
pugn motives where possibly there were
no motives, is likely to render her in time
a veritable scandal-monger, upon whose
word no person OF sense will place any
| reliance. 1t is not necessary now to
tdwelI upon the folly Of borrowing, but
| sensible housekeepers provide for the
| future and do not allow themselves to
| impose upon the good nature OF their
neighbors.
