Should Be Suppressed

The following we take from the
Philadeldhia Press. Every few
days the papers contain an account
of some Infamous outrage, perhaps
eliminating in murder, that has been
committed by tramps, and it is stated
that the neighbors are greatly eXcit-
ed and are in quest of the criminals,
who viii probably be lynched as
soon rs they are apprehended. This
is all very well for talk but there
is very likelihood that these volun-
teer efforts of citizens who have no
experlencein detecting criminals will
be successful From the nature of
the case. the tramp is very difficult
to trace. He has no habits, no re-
sorts; he wanders from place to place
as his passing fancy dictates, he
buys no railroad tickets, he sleeps
out of doors, and one tramp re-
sembles another tramp as one pea
resembles its fellow pea And all
these circumstances which make it
so difficult to follow and arrest him
make it equally difficult to convict
him.
Theremedy for outrages by tramps
is very simple. 1t is. not to have
tramps. The way not to have tramps
is to discourage them, to make them
impossible. 1t is idle for us to feed
the tramp at the back door and to
give him clothing, and then to be fill
ed with wonder and horror when the
process of evolution has become COM
plete and the tramp has been deyel
oped into a murderer. The cure of
the evil must begin further back.
The tramp should be suppressed as
a nuisance, he should be arrested
and put to hard labor for term
which should progressively increase
with every arrest. We can not ex-
pect freedom from crime while the
tramp goes at large unmolested and
even encouraged

TrLSts and the Law.

AS Mr.. Abram S. Hewitt pointed
out not long ago. III many large cor
porations capital has borne all the
losses-ind they have been heavy
and has kept its factories and stores
in operation in order that its labor
might not suffer. The sacrifices that
have thus been made by large com
binations OF capital in these times
and in every part of the country, if
they were fully known, would go far
towards making us forget the grew
ious wrongs that have been done by
constituencies trusts and the poll ii
cal corruption which they have prac-
tised
This is the other side of the story
of trusts and other combinations of
capital. 1t will be seen that they
have their virtues as we'll as their
voices. and the former as well as the
latter must be taken into considera
ton by the legislator when he un-
dertakes to frame an Antitrust law.
otherwise he NAV do the country n
grevious wrong. 1t is understood
now, in the light of the recent Su-
preme Court decision, that law
which makes criminal reasonable
agreement, even if it be no restraint
of trade, is u bad law, and it ought
to be understood, as n corollary to
the proposition, that it is difficult, if
not impossible, to frame any law
that will punish al! contracts in re
straint of trade, that will not at the
same time unhappily interfere with
combinations Of capital and labor
that are wholesome and beneficient.
and that ought therefore, to be al
ways lawful. There ought to be
laws for the prevention and punish
ment of the expressions of trusts,
and against their undue aggrandize-
ment /; and there ought to be no law
that will encourage and aid in their
formation at the expense of the rest
of the communicated will change
in their behalf natural conditions
which, as the world is governed at
present, are sufficiently friendly to
them. If the tendency of trusts to-
wards tyranny and corruption can
not be prevented by the law, it
might be better, for the sake of the
couptry, to forego the blessings that
result from combinations of capital.
But we are not yet ready to admit
that the democratic form of govern
ment is SO incompetent rs this.
When the legislator goes beyond
this. however, and undertakes to
regulate the details of the business
of corporations, he is likely to find
himself in such slough of despond
as the trainers of the Antitrust
laws are placed in by the recent de-
cision of the Supreme Court
Udyper'S Wceklv.

When Loving Mothers Grow Selfish.

1T is when children reach ma
turity that the supreme test of pa
rental love comes,' writes Edward
W. Box, discussing the home-leav-
ing of children at the time of mar
riage, in the May LodieS' Uome
JoWrndl. "All through infancy and
early years the children are more OF
less care. And then, Just rs the pa.
rents feel relieved from cares and
anXieties, and are beginning to en-.
Joy the companionship of their
children in the serene and complac-
ent way which 'grown-ups' have,
there comes a tluttering of the
wings, remote suggestion of flight.
The Middleburgh post. [volume] (Middleburgh, Snyder Co., Pa.) 1883-1916, 1897-04-29

The son is no less his mothers boy
than he has been and ever will be-.
But he is-and who realizes it so
quickly as a mother lin new and
very natural sense, another woman's
hero aud that woman a girl. With
her he discerns. away out on the
horizon line, the shadowy lines of a
house that Is to become home,
their very own. The girl, too, whose
going in and out Of the house has
been a daily Joy to the parents-she,
too, has become heorine to some
other than her father or her mother.
1t is hard for the parents to realize
that this mate of her flight can care
for her as they have; that in her
young eyes, in her young heart, it
is possible that he can be altogether
noble and capable And after the
young birds have taken flight the
parents wonder If sometimes they
do not grieve in their new life. But
some fine morning a clearer vision is
given them, and they realize that,
after all, their children are only play
ing the same roll which they played
few years before. 1t is mag
nificent quality in parents when
they so prepare themselves that they
can meet this inevitable time with
the proper spirit-when, in other
words. parental love can get the
better of selfishness."

SOUTHERN PRESBY TERIANS
Holding Their Thrty-seventh Annual Sesslon-Rev. G. N. Goetschius, of
 Rome Chosen Moderator.

Charlotte, N. C., May 20.-The thirty seventh annual session of the general as- sembly of the Southern Presbyterian church was called to order in the First Presbyterian church today. The assem- bly was organized by the election of Rev. G. N. Goetschius, of Rome, Ga as mod orator and A. R. Wiggins, and F. A. Cook as clerks. The religious services consisted of a sermon by the retiring moderator, Rev O. o. Mallard, who preached forcefully on the journey of Israel through the wilderness.
 pr. Mallard also spoke strongly in fa- vor of the continued separate existence of the southern general assembly to- wards which overtures for consolidation have been made from the north.
 The assembly reconvened at o'clock to hear the reports from the committees on publication, home and foreign mis- sions, ministerial education and the as- sembly's home and school. The reports were in the main encouraging except from the last named.
 Scarcity of funds is crippling the work. The reports were referred to the standing committees to be appointed The ad interim committee which has charge of the programme for the twenty-fifth cele- bration of the adoption of the church standards, reported. It suggested that addresses be made on six evenings of the assembly, which was afterWard changed to the reading of one at noon and two at night There are eleven addresses in all.
 Tonight the large edifice in which the assembly is being held was filled with a distinguished gathering. The new moderator, pr. Gootschius, presided, proving himself worthy of the belief of his friends that he would preside with firmness and in everyway creditably.
 The assembly came to order at S:45.
 eve are here tonight said the mod orator, Ito begin the celebration of the twenty-fifth anniversary of the Vest minister standards"
 Two addresses were read. The first one, "The Social and Political Condition of Britain at the Time With Special Ref erence to These Aspects of the Times That (a) Prepared the Way for the Call ing of the Assembly and (b) Exerted an Influence on it Whom Called" by Rev. Henry A. White, of Washington and Lee University, the other "The Religious Situation of Britain at the Time" by Rev. Robert Prince, D. D. \Both ad- dresses were exceptionally able.
 D. Nc Phatters, of Columbia, made the closing prayer. The assembly holds three sessions a day; 9:30 to 1 p. m.; 9:3O to D. m.; 8:30 to 9:30 p. m.
 It is understood the question of organic union will not be introduced at this ses- sion.

CUBAN FILIBUSTERS
Thought to Be the Dauntless-Large Lot of Coal Captured.

Jacksonville, Fla, May 20.-A Cuban filibustering expedition left Fernandina last night, about thirty Cubans being uaksn out and transferred to steamer, presumably the Dauntless. The Daunt- less is thought to have on board the cargo of the tug Alexander Jones, which Jeff Wilmington, N. C., on Tuesday. The plans of the Cubans seem to have been to send several expeditions from the Florida coast, two special trains having taken a large number of Cubans down the coast the frs. of the wesk.
 IA special treasury agent yesterday found sixty tCins of coal in sacks secresed on a key below Miami, and schooner that was about to unload some more coal was captured and taken to Key W5st. A coaling station for filibustering pur- poses was evidently being established.

A ZINE SHOWING.

Sta,e Geologist Eugene A. Smith gives the results for January and February of this year of the observations made by resolution of the Ala abama Industrial and Scientific society of the monthly produc- tion of Alabama minerals and the prod ucs manufactured therefrom, as fol- lows: Coal, s30,005 tons; pig iron, 134, ,735; coke, 190,757 iron ore, Ss0,026; limestone for Aux, 10000. There are no figures for last year to compare with these except the totals for the whole year, the sixth part of which being taken shows shat this years product is at least up 10 last years. The report says that Ala bama will probably during 1897 produce an in- creased quantity of minerals, and the products therefrom. Mobile Register.
