BANKERS nusT STOP
Chamber of Commerce Decides to
Take Action

The Chamber of Commerce
meeting started the ball rolling in
the right direction. The meeting
was only fairly attended because
of the K. of P. meeting but was
not lacking in interest.
In the absence of DR.. Rose berry,
Mr.. Ruby was made temporary
chairman. The perfecting of the
Organization had to be postponed
rs tao articles of incorporation
had not been returned from Den
yer. The meeting then took up
the matter of the bankers stopping
here. Nothing definite could be
decided upon until it was known
just how long we could ksep them
here or if they would stop at all.
A good many plans were dis
cussed as to what entertainment
should be provided for them if
they did stop.
There are 600 expected at Den
vcr and il they should all stop
here it would mean very different
arrangements than if one section
we're held here.
After the discussion of these
points it was decided to appoint a
committee of three to confer with
the railroad officials here this
morning and find out if possible
how long the delegation can be
kept here.
The following committee was
appointed: A. r. Gumaer, F..
Mitchell and Fl. Houston.
A meeting was called for three
O'Clock this afternoon to hear
their report.

Wife Beating: A Contrast.

Wife beating is a popular pastime
among the lower classes of English
men. 1t has not struck root in Ameri-
can soil, and let us hope that 1t never
will IT is only fair to say that when
a wife beater is brought within the
meshes of the law in England his pun
ishment is as drastic as needs be, in
many cases. even for a wife beater.
The mayor of Scranton seems to take
a lenient view of wife beating, too
lenent to tit in with the sanctity and
obligations of the marital relations of
rueband and wife, as understood by
law and society. A rutfian named Bar"
rett was brought before him on Sunday
morning last on a charge of beating
his wife. The mayor in the plentitude
Of his judicial discretion sent the fell
low to Jail for thirty days. The pris-
oner shows his gratitude by declaring
that he will repeat his action with in
tercst when he comes out. Well he
may. The man will have ample leis-
urc during the thirty days of well-fed
idleness to nurse his wrath.
rested on Saturday afternoon charged
with littering the street with rubbish.
We have no desire to palliate viola
tions of the ordinances of the city.
We could wish, however, to see them
more impartially If not more strictly
enforced. Francois crime was the re-
suit Of An accident. An alderman of
the city fined him four dollars and
fifty cents. AS the unfortunate man
earned only thirty cents in wages dur
ing two months we see how nicely ad-
justed the fine was to meet the cir.
cumstanccs of his financial resources
| This was a case in which a discharge
| and a caution would have satisfied jus.
! tice eminently. But Francois goes tC
| jail as well as Barrett, and will prob
ably remain the longer. II his fine i.
rot paid. Queer are the contrasts pre-
| sented in our petty courts.

SHALL WOMEN BE EXECUTED!
From the Wilkes-Barre Times.

L rom tne NllkeS~BdTTe Times.
The question of electrocuting women is
agitatng the public of New York. This
discussion has arisen over the sentence of
death passed in the case of Mrs. Martha
Place who was recently convicted OF a
most atrocious murder, that of her own
step daughter. The jury was satisfied 1t
was wicked and deliberate murder that
the prisoner was sane; and, unlike our
Griner jury, they brought in verdict
of murder in the first degree. The woman
was sentenced to be electrccuted in the
week beginning August %.
1t will be remembered that one of the
great objecti, nS to hanging was that in
the case of WON en- murderers it was in
decent, and now it is argued that be-
cause she is a woman, it would be cruel
to submit her to a disgraceful and tor
ure of the discussion that the majority
of the men denource the execution of
women, but on the other hand the majcr-
ity of the women say if she is guilty of
a foul and deliberate murder, then she
should be made to pay the full penalty.
1t seems to us that the law knows no
distinction between male or female in
the death penalty. The woman's chance
comes when her defender pleads her sex
and other sentiment to the jury, and if
they Judge her crime to be worthy of
the death penalty, she should die. If the
woman degrades herself by committing
wilful and premeditated crime. how is
the punishment to make her still mo,e
degraded? The plea for relieving woman
of the consequences of her crime, is illogi-
cal, and unwise and opposed TO the well
being and safety of society.

MILES AND LEWD.

borealis of the house of representatives,

Lewis stepped into the headquarters of

bonair, and addressing the great soldier
said
General, my people are wondering
why our boys are not sent to the front.
They are tired of being woodcutters and
waiter carriers and bootbacks. They en-
listed to fight, and they don't propose
to stay in camp all summer. They de-
nand some kind of an explanation for
OBTAINING them"
And who are you?"
The aurora borealis turned flame color
and haughtily replied: 81 am Mr.. Lewis.
sirs congressman from the state of Wash
ngton."
"Oh. yes" retorted General Miles, "r:e
| all have heard of you" And among 9TH
er things he probably recalled the fact
lhat Mr. Lewis had twice objected to the
consideration of a bill to revive the rank
Of lieutenant general in the army. Then
| looking straight into the congress MA
| eyes, the commander of the army said:
I'VE are running this war, and are not
being dictated TO oy any one. All the fas
end Of border civilization can't expect tC
conduct this war because they belong tC
military companies. We are fighting tC
win, and not to give glory to all sorts o
people"
