AM ANARCHTsT

The people most interested in what
Judge Stevenson is trying TO break up
are the law and order people who seem
TO imagine that they can reform the
world and suppress vice by legal en-
actment and administration. That is
an old mistake. Men and women with
vicious tendencies cannot be legis-
lated, or legally punished into virtue
The law has no moral force. The thief
who abstains from stealing because OF
the law is still a thief The party with
inclination to murder and who re-
strains his murderous propensities be-
cause OF the law, is still a murderer.
So II is with vice. Law may restrain
II but cannot diminish it-may force
Il to hide itself, to assume a clean
earb and preserve respectful do
moancr in public. but there is a ques-
tion as TO whether or not this does net
make IL mere potent for evil
The above actually occurred in a
Wilmington paper yesterday; we are
particular to say that It is not the re-
suit cf an opium-dream- least. on
our part-but it may be read in a morn
ing Paper 1t is the deliberate utter
ance Of the organ owned and control
ed by Addicks, and is In keeping with
its well-lnown ability to slander and
falsify every man and every organiza-
tion which has the appearance OF re-
spectability
This utterance is the cry of the An
archist, red-mouthed and red-handed.
It cannot be controverted since it con
troverts itself 1t is the plea of one
lost to self-respect, who has no es-
teen for law or the decencies of life.
1t calmly ignores fact and criticises
an organization supported entirely by
charity, and which has no ideal but she
respect OF law.
There is only one inference from
the statements we quote. that inasmuch
as we cannot make men and women
moral by legal enactment and enforce
ment OF law, all efforts in that dlrec-
ton should cease. and crime be allow.
ed TO flourish and haunt its soiled rags
in the face Of respectable people. "Thc
thief who abstains from stealing be-
cause of the law is still thief. "ThC
party With inclination to murder anc
who restrains his murdevous propensl.
ties because of the law, is still mur.
derer.' If this has any meaning, It Ia
that thieves and 'murderers should b,
protected Such an utterance from q
public journal. when read by the vi
cious, is a warrant and a defense fol
unlimited indulgence in crime
We have been criticised for soilinl
the virgin page with illusions to q
paper without conscience or morals
which bases every utterance on falls,
foundation, which defes all the rulei
Of decency, disputes the truths Of hol,
writ and ilouts the law, but a lepe
must not so uncballenged when tn
health Of clean people is endangered

The Philippine liar is never daunted;
no story is to improbable for circula-
tion, no character too staunch for at
tack. a man by the name of McEvoy
has stepped TO the front with story
to the effect that the capture of Agul-
naldo was a farce, and that General
Funston was simply detailed as one OF
the actors. According TO his state
ment, the Filipino chief received ST.
100000 for his surrender this being in
vested in safe securities To make th,
story plausible, he should have told
who furnished the money Certainly
no individual would have been so lib
eral, and the government must ac
count for its expenditures. We wan
to know who put up the cash? Thi!
rumor must be verified, even thougi
Judge Stevenson has to hail the rumor

Such should be the title Of these lines,
for whoever observes these interesting
insects finds 1t easy enough to foretell
exactly the kind of weather to be ex-
pected. At least, that Is the opinion
Of many ralsers Of bees.
Generally the bee stays Mt home when
rain Is In the air, When the sky Is sim
ply dark and cloudy these busy workers
do not leave their dwelling all at once.
A few 60 out first, as though the queen
had sent out messengers to study the
state of the atmosphere. The greater
number remain on observation until
the clouds begin to dlssipate. ana 1t Is
only then that the battallOns entire
rush out In search OF nectar. A bee
never goes out In fog, because 1t Is
we'll aware that dampness and cold are
two fearsOme, redOubtable enemies.
We do not mean, however, that the bee
Is a meteOrologist In the absolute sense
of the word. Its cleyerness consists In
never being taken unawarcs, for 1t pos
sesses untiring vigilance. Often one
may observe the sudden entrance OF
bees into the hive when dense cloud
hides the sun, and even though the rain
Is not In evidence.

creased by the extra distance the logs
have to be carried. Then. owing to
the nature and manipulation of the
trade, consumption and supply cannot
keep pace with each other; one Is con-
tinually catching up the other, and the
consequences ore rises and depressions.
"But, in the opinion Of all who know
anything about timber and have studied
the great question Of supply, there must
be a steady increase in the price Of
every description Of wood goods, and
each wave of higher prices will attain
a higher level than its predecessor.
"As far as the Riga saving trade is
concerned. the forests which furnish
the timber are now SO fur away from
the rivers which carry the logs that
Riga cannot be supplied unless prices
nre fairly high. II 20 per cent Of the
cost price Of a log In Riga consists Of
the expense of bringing 1t down from
the forests, It Is clear that a reduction
can only be made on the remaining 30
per cent.
"By the remarks have made l dc
not intend to imply that the supply Of
timber Is reaching its end. There is
still plenty of timber, but 1t Is becom
ing comparatively so inaccessible that
In many parts It can only be worked out
when prices rule high. Higher prices
will always render accessible for supply
those forests which It was not consld
cred worth while to work Mt low rates.

Seekers after novel entertainment for
winter evenings have caught upon the
mock trial, which is consequently doing
its turn at popular favor. Fortunately
the trial adapts itself to any company
and may be just as amusing or Just as
educational rs its managers care to
make 1t. It gives opportunity for play
OF wit which nvens the monotony Of the
regulation court proceeding and 1t gives
plenty Of room for such personal touch.

an audience composed Of friends of the
players. Moreover. as large part Of
the company can be subpoenaed for the
trial the interest will be most unflag-
glng. From the mpaneling of the jury
to the final verdict the audience will
receive enthusiastically every stage of
the trials procedure.
A ridiculous charge is brought against
a member Of the party; often this is n
club meeting. A young lawyer or law
student Is chosen for Judge, as he can
Mt the same time direct the conduct of
the trial. The greatest care is taken
to have everything in strict accordance
with the legal custom and the slightest
deviation from the regular order Of trial
Is zealously guarded against. The law.
yers appear with burden of dlgnified
leather.bound volumes, which they con.
suit frequently and with ridiculous eff.
feet. The dignity Of the Judge is bold.

Cuyier's OppOrtunity.

Baron Cuvier, the renowned natural
list, then only eighteen, accepted n sit
uation as tutor in family living near
Fecamps in Normandy. The house was
near the sea and he often strolled on
the bank. One day he found strand
cd cutie fish. He took 1t home, dissect-
ed it, and began then the study Of mol
luscae. in which he won such reputa'
ttion. The ocean was his text book.
This was his opportunity to learn from
that text book. BY embracing the Op-
portunlties offered in his three years
residence by the sea he became one OF
the shining lights in natural history.
