 St Francis Levee district into publish
 in the following unprincipled insinua-
 ton that there is something dark about
 the expenditures of the board, which will not bear the light of investigation:

 to correct the error"
 The Sun has been imposed upon, and

 pecially the unsophlstieated represen-

Helpless Victims of Alcohol.

In every large city there are great
numbers of minor delinquents who
are a greater puzzle to the penOlogsts
than the major criminal. Last year
there were more than $4,000 commit
ments of this class to the workhouse
of New York city. Many individuals
were committed more than once for
short terms. SO considerably fewer than
$4,000 persons are represented in this
list; but even so it is great flood OF
human hotsam floating in and out of
the city Jail, a drain upon the tixpay-
ers while confined and worse pes, to
society when at large.
By far the greater number are ha-
bitual or periodical inebriates, and the
misdemeanors which they commit are
almost always induced by alcoholic.
indulgences. They are victims OF the
disease inebriety, and can no more
neip drinking When the impulse Is on
them than boat without an anchor
can help floating down stream.
Once the alcohol is in their system
propensities are aroused which lead
to criminal acts-wife beating, crimi-
nal assault and the like During the
paroxysms the offender is utterly
irresponsible, often absolutely uncon-
scious. TO assume that the pillory,
the whipping post or for that matter
the guillotine the electric chair or a
portion of boiling oil would have any
terrors for hin. is to disregard the
simplest psychological conditions.
There is no conceivable punishment
that would be deterrent to crimes due
to alcohol or passion.
