CRIME AND SOCIETY.

AS there are two kinds of socialism,
a materialistic and religious socialism,
so there are two kinds of indlviduallsm,
a religious and a materlalistlc lndlvld- |
ualism. The. conclusions of these diff
ferent ways Of thinking upon the sub
ject of crime, its causes and remedies,
will illustrate their pecullarltles. The
socialists of both schools incline TO the
view of the perfectibility of man, and
maintain that individuals become
criminal because their social surround
ings compel them to become so. The
religious indlyiduaiists ascribe crime
to the perverse free will of the crimi-
nal, tempted but not cOerced by his So
cial situation. The materlallStic IN
diyidualists ascribe it to heredity. The
latter seem to be approaching the mat
ter in scientific way, by the statistical
comparison of the physical and psy-
chical characteristics of criminals and
non n-criminals. There are, however,
two criticisms upon their methods and

A SINGLE MORAL STANDARD.

Considerable discussion has recently
taken place-for the most part an alto
gether one-sided discussion the
question Of applying a single moral
standard to all persons alike, without
distinction between the sexes. Com
plaint has been made of the rank in
Justice that dscriminates between the
different punishments meted out to
men and women who are adjudGed
guilty of the same crime or fault. And
all who have expressed themselves up
on the subject appear to be in Substan-
tial agreement that the employment OF
different moral standards for the same
offense by persons of different sex
is wrong and calls for Immediate
remedy.
Why is it, that in the face of so great
a unanimity Of opinion in this matter
a single moral standard. has not been
adopted? That it has not been adopted
by any considerable portion OF the
human race is the fact upon which
these complaints are grounded. be
hind this fact there must be some deep
| seated reason, because the actual prac
tice of mankind through all the age
past is the best proof that some sucl
reason does exist. The varying stand
ards which are applied to human con
duct are not always more severe for tn
Q man than for the woman. In thos
o offenses against person and property

escapes with the minimum
penalty, whether by compassion of the
jury or mercy of the judge. In nearly
every case where the woman IS ar
raigned before the courts on crlmlnai
charges she is given the benefit OF
leniency that man would have no
reason whatever to expect, because she
is not regarded as resting under pre-
cisely the same responsibility as the
man.
On the other hand. in those offenses
whose chief punishment consists III
ostracism from polite society and In a
loss of reputation rather than in the
legal pains and penalties. it must be
acknowledged that woman is regularly
Judged by severer standard than man.
This has been observed among savage
tribes; it is noticeable among semi
civilized barbarians; 1t is true, today,
among practically all races in every
part of the world. A departure from
the path of virtue by woman is not
viewed as the same fault as similar
lapse in man. The punishment is diff
ferent because the fault is different
The fault is different because it has
different effects upon the future wei
fare of the race. The mans otfense is
usually attended with no injurious Ell
fects except upon himself, while pun
ishment for the woman's otfense is ap'
to be visited upon generations yet un
born, if not to threaten the very con
tinuance of the race. The preservation
of the clan. or tribe, or nation, Is th'
first law with savages, as with clvlllZe'
man, and anything that operates to en-
danger that is frowned upon by TIL
, most repressive measures. Until 1t

AS THE DAYS GROW BRIGHTER

Pessimism is failure to perceive
the bright side of things, having Its
growth in morbid contemplation OF
the worst and d refusal to admit the
best features of life. The pesslmlst IS
usually a product of hard conditions,
his ideas of the social fabric being
formed by contact with the rough
edges of poverty and poor surround
ings, rendering him prone to be dlscon-
tented and unduly magnify the COM
forts and luxuries of his more pros
nerous neighbor. He is fond of revert
ing to some particular period OF the
mast. in which his own circumstances
were easier, as the golden age OF the
world, and. unmindful of the spirit
of advancement permeating modern
thought, accepts his own conclusions
as the barometer of the times. Our
thoughts are governed by inclination
and our opinions by interest. AS sue
cess attends our ventures, our Thoughts
run in optimistic channels, inspiring
content with the established order OF
things. giving faith to the present and
Frightening the aspect of the future

and sleeps. Homes are comparatively |
scarce. A home is refuge place from !
the storms, the fret and worry of life. |
1t is place where the husband comes
to a sanctuary, where smiles and lOV-
ing words answer his smiles and loving
greeting. 1t is a place where the wife
reigns in her benignity and grace; not,
it may be, the grace of outward beauty
or cultivation, but of true womanhood,
where she receives honor and love,
even as she gives them both. 1t is 4
place where children are happier than
anywhere else in the world, because
there are the cheeriest words, the

when you see q real home, light,

to be happy; where if husband and

THE UNDERWORLD


If we but calmly look around.
Where want and WretchedneSS abound.
And starving mOrtalS may be found,
We see the underworld.
Above it. all is clear and bright.
Where Justice rules and truth and right
And day succeeds the starry night.
With flags of peace unfurled.
Above. man ever strives To please.
And live in comfort and i'll ease.
Nor thinks of poorer things than these.
BY time swift onward whirled.
He cannot see the want and care.
The deepening sorrow everywhere.
Nor think such lot he'll ever share.
Though near the underworld.
We need not read the ancient lore,
That tells of spirits gone before.
To haunt our living evermOre,
From out the underworld.
We need not learn of ancient gods,
Who torture men with burning rods.
Nor vet of him whose pitchfOrk prOds
All those to ruin hurled.
For here before us. day by day.
Are forms that never go away.
Are pleading forms that try to stay
And live in this. our world.
But somehow. fate has turned deaf ear.
Their cries and pleadings not to hear.
But sends them shrieking year by year
Into the underworld.
instead of daybreak. there. It's night.
so black it never can be light,
Where wrong doth rule to Danish right.
In dire disorder hurled.
instead of pleasure. there. It's pain.
And grief to rack the aching brain.
Devoid of hope to rise again.
From out the underworld.
larger world 1t Is than this,
Where all things seem to go am>s
EXpellino every earthly bliss.
A weird and awful world.
The rpper world could never live,
It's feteS and banquets never give.
And in its languid luxury live.
But for the underworld.
oh let us pause and try to think
How close we stand upon the brink;
How soon. perchance. we, too. may SINK
Into this underworld.
Twill give us new desire each day
To drive the shades of night away.
And let the sun with brightest ray
Shine through the underworld.
For SeltishnesS has such Il hold
And makes the graSping man SO bold.
His love supreme for glittering gold.
Doth fill the underworld.
On brother. when Wllltruth ano rl9Nl
Arise in righteousness and might
Forever to diSpel the night
OF that dread underworld:
