Telling how to help the farmers. the
New York Tribune says:
But government has power to helm
the farmers in other ways and most ef-
fectively. A great difficulty under
which they labor is the over-production
OF certain crops through ignorance of
the acreage planted or sown in other
parts of the country. The wild mac
curacy of statistics published. profes-
sedly for the guidance Of farmers. but
too often distorted and rendered fatal
to their interests by the desire to con
troll markets in which previous crops
are being sold, has made returns so far
valueless and even hurtful TO the farm
er that the stoppage and prohibition of
them have been seriously urged Rut
because reports by states or by the
government in recent years have done
much harm and not much good. it does
not follow that trustworthy reoorts are
impracticable or that they would be of
no real use to the farmers.
Suppose thar the truth could be
known, when spring opens, as no the
acreage sown in winter wheat and how
it mas Jared, is it not evident that farm
ers in spring wheat states could de-
eide with some reason whether to in
crease or decrease their acreage devot-
ed to that crop? Would there not result.
within a short time, such an adjust
ment of the acreage to the probable
needs of the world as has never yet
blessed the farmers? Even during the
spring, since some states begin sowing
much earlier than others. the same
guidance would be Of constant ad-
vantage. And this is only one Of many
crops which could be regulated in the
same manner, to the great benefit of
the farmers, if correct information
were given in regard 10 the process of
agriculture in different states With
out doubt Secretary Wilson appreci-
ates fully the blessing which such in
formation would confer, and it may be
presumed that in reconstructinE his de-
partment he is aiming to make it more
helpful in that very respect. If he can
succeed, even though the gathering of
the information should cost the gov
eminent a large sum, he will do more
to promote national prosperity than
many men in high station even have
power to do"

way than this. Give them a bounty.

AARON BURR's PISTOL
Its Adventures Since it Gave a Fatal
| Wound to Alexander Hamilton.

Wound to Alexander Hamilton.
Louis Marshall of Versailles, XIV,
| possesses the famous pistol with which
Aaron Burr Killed Alexander Hamilton
says the st. Louis Post Dispatch. The
fatal weapon has changed hands many
times, and has mad an interesting ca
reer. Its Authenticity is urqueStionaDle.
Judge Van Ness, who was Burr's sec
ond, marked the pistol and gave it to
Colonel James Bowie, together with its
maze the Hamilton pistol. Colonel
Bowie wore the pair as belt pistols. but
lost one pistol while swimming a bayou.
He afterwards presented the remaining
weapon to DR.. Carr. the superintendent
of the United States arsenal at Balti
more. DR.. Carr acted as second 60
Thomas T. Marshall of Versailles, the
Kentucky orator and statesman. in his
duel with James Watson Webb, editor
OF the New York Courier and Enquirer,
in which Webb was crippled for life.
Dr. Carr then gave the Burr pistol to
Mr.. Marshall, who subsequently pre-
sented it to his brother. Edward c.

the Mexican war. 1t was stolen from
him by his body servant but. through

LYNcHINe AND CRIME.

The Urbana lynching will probably
draw more attention to the frequency
of this crime and the necessity for sup
pressing it than any similar occurrence
that has happened for a long time.
So far as Ohio is concerned, Governor
Bushnell favors making the punish
ment for extreme cases of criminal as
sault on women death. 1t is not,
ordinarily. a good thing to increase the
number of crimes for which the death
penalty shall be inflicted; but of this
there can be no doubt: it is much better
to enlarge the list of crimes for which
the penalty shall be death than to have
those crimes punished by death by a
mob. 1t has very demoralizing effect
upon a community to have the law
prescribe one punishment for crime
and then have the people ignore the
law and infiict the punishment that
they, in their capacity of a mob, deem
suitable.
Governor Bushnelrs suggestion is
probably made as a consequence of the
great excitement that exists because of
the lynching and other deaths that oc-
CURED at Urbana. 1t shows no refiec-
ton but merely a vague idea that per-
haps TO increase the severity of the
punishment in one class of cases would
prevent other crimes. The punishment
in cases of criminal assault should be
made adequate to the offense; in fixing
it that should be the main considera-
ton. A lynching might occur in Ohio
tomorrow, the cause of which might
be entirely different from the one that
prompted the Urbana lynching. Would
Governor Bushnell recommend the en-
actment of law infiicting the death
penalty in such a case2
In several Of the southern states the
penalty for criminal assault is death, if
we mistake not. 1t totally fails to
prevent lynchings in this class of cases
though it is almost absolutely certain
that those charged with this crime
would be found guilty in ninety-nine
cases out of hundred, and the penalty
of the law inflicted upon them.
The surest cure for lynching is for
officers to protect their prisoners at all
hazards even though they are COM |
PEELED TO kill great. many members of
the mob. Where the victims of mobs |
have not been taken from the officers
the thing to do is to prosecute the
members of the mob to the full extent |
of the law.
