Tn n criminal 5 in one of I'M
New York courts a young woman per
jured herself SO openly as to excite the
curiosity Of the jadge, who qusstione'
her closely to discover il sue really un-
derstood the nature Of a solemn oath.
she replied promptly that some peopl'
said IL was wrong to swear to a lie, ou'
that she had seen so much OF 1t done
and observed so often where men pro
flied by it, and scarcely ever met with
any trouble for having done so' sne
had concluded that a person could
swear as they please without any fear
of being molested therefor. Concern
ing the moral obligation that is con-
nected with the giving OF testimony
che did not seem to know any
thing about 1t.
1t is not only in New York and other
large cities where perjury has become
a common and open practice, but
everywhere it is showing its hydra
head and exercising a baueful TO-
Iaence upon society. The high regard
Americans have heretofore shown for
their plighted word aud III, pride they
have felt in going before a court OF
law and swearing to the truth, the
whole truth and nothing but the
truth, is now treated with rIdicule
and contempt by that large class
of people who insist upon tie
principle that a trade isa trade, no
matter how much fraud and filsehocd
has been INDUCED in to consummate
it. With such people q man who
sticks TO his word and cannot be pre-
vailed upon to testify falsely Is a back
number and a sucker. They make the
broad mistaks CT confounding busi-
ness, tact and energy with petty
shrewdness and %chicanery. Perhaps
it is hard TO suggest something that
will cure the evil that is 50 apparent
to us all. but there IL one thing sure,
and that is if-the character and ob!iga-
tions of a mans oath become les
sacred and binding upon the conscience
every year the time is not far distan
when court trials will become a farce

PUT.

A Chicago minister recently deliver
ed a ermon in Trinity church in that
city. which could be we'll needed by
business men in every day life, but
seems especially pertinent at this time,
to Las Vegas. when local matters are
absorbing the interest OF the d%enizens
of the city. The gentleman pat it this
way:
The corporation has removed the moral
element from business. Men do things as
a board of directors that they woul l never
think of doing as persons. They go to
church, lead biameless family AMI social
lives as individuals, while as a corporate n
they lie, rob. steal and bride. AS citizens
they love their country and revere her
laws. as a corporation they swindle her
and debauch her legislature. AS a citizen
they give large aims to the poor; as a COR
poratlon they fleece the workmen OF mil
lions. Their own souls they aim to fit for
heaven: the corporation. having no
soul and knowing no death, is in no
danger OF hell. And in all this they are
conscious of no Hypocrisy and era indig-
nant at the imputation Of evil, for they
claim that a corporation must needs con-
form to the usage Of the business world.
The corporation IS the. most perfect form
of absolute monarchy. While it draws its
revenues from the public. the latter has no
voice in its control; yet our fore-fathers
died for the principle of 90 taxation with
out representation. ; It has utter control
over mems sustenance and happiness, yet
these men have no voice in its manage
ment, and no recourse against injustice,
except to appeal to courts. where they are
powerless against the mighty capital OF
their opponent. And even when the
Iaborer is treated well by his employers,
he still has to fear the car ike rule Of the
the labor union. Liberty in business is
pure fiction"
