The Sentence of Debs

The decision of Judge Woods, of the
Uuited States district court at Chicago,
sentencing Eugene Debs, to six months
Imprisonment, does not question the
right 10 strike. [. does not in any way
threaten the privileges of laboring men,
or accord advantages to capitalists.
1t does not abridge the right OF trial by
jury, All that it does is to vindicale
the ms jesty of law. and to demons rate
that the time has not yet come in the
United States when violence can tram
pie on the constitution. or snap its fing
els at the mandates o: the federal
courts.
Debs and the other officers of the
american Railway Union who were as
ISOLATED with him in the leadership of
the great strike last summer have been
tried for contempt of court. Their trial
has been conducted according to the
forms prescribed by law. They have
had counsel as able as money and influ-
ence could procure. Every step of the
proceedings has been contested, but the
law and the facts were against them.
They have been found guilty of defying
the injunction of the United States court
issued in July last for the protection of
the mails and interstate commerce from
violent obstruction. Debs is sentenced
to imprisonment FOR six months, while
his eigh associates, who are held to
have been swayed by his influence, are
sentenced to imprisonment for three
months. Considering the circumstanc
es, this must be regarded as q light
sent, nee. 1t establishes the principle
that the law is supreme 1t also de-
moustrates that justice is tempered
with mercy -EUenipg Wisconsin.

The Income Tax.

Philadelphia Times (Dem.): 1t was
favorite maxim of the late President
Grant, however. that the best way to
get rid of bad law was to enforce it
rIgidly. The income tax having been
incorporated in the tariff and revenue
law, it should be rigidly enforced a
long with every other provision of the
act. If experience demonstrates that
this feature of the law is vicious and
unjust, it should be repealed, but the
repeal should be direct and not an
indirect one through the refusal of an
appropriation to enforce it. The in
come tax should stand or fall upon it's
merits, and while it remains a part of
the revenue law it should be treated as
every other part of the law will be.
New York Advertiser: II is absurd
for the United States to take up a
system of taxation so generally de-
spised and condemned This is a
government of and by the people, not
a government of and by class, and
the people are ready to support it,
New York Sun Dem,) The fight is
not over The fight will not be over
while this hateful measure Of oppres-
sion and confseation remains in the
statutes to the disgrace of the Ameri-
can congress.
New York Tribune: 1t is not en-
tirely clear whether Secretary Carl
isles pet income-tax scheme is prim-
arily a contrivance to discourage
thrift or an invention to foster per-
iury

it himself the next morning. Then he
called ut the abode of Miss Damon
The ring was answered by a servant,
who said the young lady was out doing
her Christmas shopping. Here was a
piece of good luck. Leaving the pack
age with explicit instructions as to its
delivery Fadley said he would call,
Christmas night, as per previous ar
rangement with the young lady.
There was a big job off his hands,
and Fadley mentally patted himself on
the back at having done it up so neatly
He pictured to himself the glad sur
prise of Miss Damon when she should
receive the substantial evidence of his
regard, and chuckled over the little
surprise in store for his dear friend
and chum, Harvey. Early Christmas
morning Miss Damon received her
package, upon opening which she ex-
claimed:
We'll, never! Just as if were in
need of a shave. Who ever has been
so kind as to furnish me with this tom
serial outfit?" Then her eye caught
the corner of card sticking out of one
of the compartments of the case. This
she drew forth and read:
From yours faithfully
II. IRA FADLEY."
oh" said the mischievous young
lady; Mr.. Fadley, Ell? Well, just
wait till he comes this evening. I'll
bawl Next at him: see if don't"
Of all the mortified SWANS that ever
got into pickle Fadley felt the worst
when the idol of his heart flashed the
shaving tools on him. He was utterly
speechless, until it occurred to him
that his friend Harvey had his dear
ones toilet set and one of the sweetest
of little notes that ever lovesick fell
low put together.
Great snakes thought Fadley; ''if
he reads that note I'll never hear the
last of it" Then he explained the
mistake and begged off long enough to
hasten over to his friends house to
exchange the packages, He found
Harvey at home, and as that amiable
young man jerked him into the hall he
simperingly inquired:
rs my hat on straight, Ira dear, and
how do my bangs look?''
Say" fiercely calculated Fadlev, IF
you don't shut your head I'll break it
for you!"
But there was no time to be lost, so
Fadley, after duly acknowledging that
the cigars We're on him, gathered up
the toilet set and sped back with it to
the one for whom it was intended.
That was not the last of the joke on
/ him, by any means. The thing leaked
out, as such things invariably do, and
poor Fadley was so annoyed by face
/ tious illusions to his Santa Claus ex-
| perience that he was compelled to
threaten with consequences dire any

FADLEYS CHRISTMAS GIFTS.
BY FRANK b. WEIGH.

Young Mr.. Fadley was in a worry
He had some Christmas presents tc
buy, and what to get was what wor
ried him First and foremost, there
was Miss Damon, upon whom he was
anxious to create an impression-she
must have something appropriate and
elegant, whether anybody else got
anything or not. Then there was his
bosom friend and constant companion
Harvey, a good fellow who had placed
him under obligation times without
number-him he could not forget.
This being the case, Fadley started out
TO rummage the stores.
He overhauled all the leading shops
in town, and by Christmas Eve had col
lected what he thought was a pretty
sensible lot of presents for an amateur
Santa Claus to get together. For the
lady of his choice he had handsome
toilet outfit of combs. brushes, powder
puffs and boxes, manicure implements,
hand mirrors, and no end of other ele-
CANT articles for feminine use These
were all inclosed in an deliberately be-
pushed and inlaid case which was
neatly wrapped and all ready to be
sent to the intended recipient. For
his friend Harvey he had an elegant
shaving set, consisting of razors,
brushes, cups, homes, etc, done up in a
substantial case which was also ready
to be dispatched to the home of his
friend.
Not daring to trust messenger with
the presents for fear of some mistake
Fadley started out himself to deliver
them. First he called at Harvey's
house, timing his call so as not to catch
his friend at home. With his friends
mother he intrusted the package, she
promising that it should not be tam
pered with until Harvey should open

exercise the greatest caution and care. The
trouble with these things is that they come
unawares aud are often unsupported. The
germs of malaria IRE drawn In by every
breath. the seeds of disease are spread by
each swallow Of water"
The doctor looked thoughtful for mo-
ment. and then continued, There is but one
way tn prevent these Dangers and that is to
lie watchful Instead of drinking iced
water and other things all the while, and in
place OF permitting hot and foul air TO
be wGtchful and check these things on the
start.
There is but one way that this can be done
and that is by the use of some pure stimu-
liant constantly or when the slightest feeling
OF sickness appears. The only preparation
which has ever been known to certainly conn
teract these troubles in time is that great
that popular whiskey, Duffy's Pure Malt. II
has been used by the public of America for
over twenty years, aud has proven its sur
passing merits only By what 1t has accom-
plisbed.
Ii men and women would counteract the
Ceadiy germs in the water at this season of
the year by mixing Duffy's Pure Malt with

malaria. 1t should be borne in mind. how
ever. that it. is only Duffy's Pure Malt Whis-
key that will accomplish this. and that how
ever much druggists or grocers may say to
the contrary. it alone can he depended upon.
