BOSS May cSIGN Hanna May Step Down and Out of Republican
 Chairmanshlp. BECAUSE OF DisAPPRoVAL OF PRESIDENTS SOUTHERN
 POLICY. His Plans Have All Been Spoiled and He Is Sore and Much Dis
 gruntIed.
DAY OF MACHINE BOSSES OVER.

A Washington dispatch to the Kew York Evening Post says:
 A sensational turn has been given to the fact that Senator Hanna does not share President Roosevelt's views as to the way to distribute federal offices in the South. eliminating il the statment that the senator is about to issue a formal proclamation, de nouncing the Rooseveltian theory and then resign his office as chairman of the Republican national committee.
 That Mir. Hanna may resign his chairmanship is, and has been foT seme time, among the possibilities He was anxious to quit the arduous duties of the place in the campaign of 1900, but yielded to the earnest pleas of President Mckinley. and re. mained at the head of the committee. Machine Managers Day Has Come.
 It was understood that he would have sought release after the election, but was persuaded out of the idea bE some of his associates. who wished to retain the .oid party machine and control the action of the convention of 19041 They had no specific eandi- date in mind, but wished to have their hands so on the lever that they could throw the nomination in whichever di- rection they desired until the. time came.
 The trend of the patronage policy of the administration in the South has served notice. of course, upon large group of machine managers there that their day has come.
 It was in the South that the hand of MT Hanna did most injury At the convention of 1896. when delegations came to St. Louis pledged to vote for any one he might name (but had to be pledged over again, and at an equal cost, to vote for the existing gold standard, which was not included in the original compacD. the public gained a glimpse of the rottenness of the party machinery in Louisiana. South Carolina, Alabama. Texas and elsewhere.
 At Philadelphia last year this char acteristic was not so much in evidence, as the renomination of Mckinley was foregone conclusion. and the South ern factions had not so much to hope for ill carrying their local fights into the national arena.
 Hanna's Plans Spoiled.
 Mr Roosevelt has long entertained decided opinions as to the right of the Southern people to as much con sideration under a Republican as under a Democratic administration and could not take the same view as Mr Hanna of the righteousness or patriotism of keeping mere machines  going in states where the party con sists of nothing else.
 The president, therefore has sought the advice of the best men at times irrespective of party or race, on his Southern appointments. instead of calling upon MT. Hanna to tell him what to do and then doing it and hold ing Hanna responsible for the result
 Naturally. this has been embarrass ing for the senator. although it has not come upon him without abundant and entire':' courteous notice. Tt places him in the position of being unable to carry out some of the plans

etc. Meanwhile, Vermonters are

thousands of dollars annually. All
this has been said again and again, but
it win do no harm to repeat it. 1t is
true, unfortunately, that Yermonters
lack confidence in their state. 1t is
not strange, then, that others do not
stop to give it attention. when those who
know it best shrug their shoulders
over it. Probably the chronic desire

privileged to impose sentences on
persons who have earned terms IN the
states penal institutions, not
specific as to period, but with a
maximum and minimum time. At the
completion of the minimum time, the
prison commissioners may, if the
prisoner has given indication of trying
to lead a correct life, liberate him on
parole. The balance of the sentence
hangs over him as a warning, for If he
lapses from good behavior it is invoked
against him and he is reimprisoned.
His penalty is, therefore, not fully
discharged and he has not the same
feeling of having squared accounts
with the state as he would have under
sentence which he had fully worked
out. Another departure is the system
of probations, by which persons not
habitual criminals, who have been
convicted of single offence of law
breaking, are placed under the control
of officers to whom they must report
at frequent intervals and must satisfy
as TO their conduct, instead of incar-
cerating them in prison or house OF
correction. If they show indication OF
continued lawlessness, they are sur
rendered for their full penalty. 1t is
doubtless true that under strong
person might commit
single offence and be detected without
having within him the elements of an
laDitual criminal. If banished from
society and thrown into the associa-
ions of prison life, this spark might be
and the prisoner forever
ost to a life of good, when a little
eniency might work his redemption
The theory is that punishment should
AVE for its chief aim reform and not
-engeance. The adoption of these
modern and advanced ideas has been
TENDED with general success so far.

Some people cannot understand why
Mrs. Carrie Nation, Mrs. Sheriff and
other jealous women of Kansas
are suffered to keep on in their
policy Of smashing the saloons of that
state. Why are they not prosecutedp
is asked. The answer is that Kansas
is prohibition state; saloons are out
lawed and the proprietors have no
standing in court, inasmuch as it is a
principle OF law that those who invoke
its protection must come to it clean
handed. The law does not recognize
the equipments of saloon or its stock
of liquors as property in states under
prohibitory statutes. Therefore, Mrs.
Nation and her associates are not open
to prosecution for destroying such
things, and probably would not even
be liable in suits of trespass or private
damages. Those who engage in the
saloon business where it is outlawed
run their own risks. However, saloon
smashing, as temperance measure, is
open TO objections serious enough to
deter Vermont women from engaging
in it.
