Wherever capital punishment exists
there is talk about its ineffectiveness as
a deterrent from crime and the conse-
quent propriety of abolishing it. But
in most, If not all, States and countries
where no death penalty is now infiict-
ed there is quite as much talk about
the necessity of reviving it. The gen
eral tendency of the times, however,
is beyond question against the inflic-
ton of the death penalty. 1t has often
been stated that there would be less
opposition to this tendency If SEN
tence of Imprisonment for life did not

is, the prisoner condemned to perpet-
ual confinement. did not have the hope,
amounting to a probability, Of ultimate

the time is called to the fact that char
acter is cash capital, and that it passes
at times and places for the financial
benefit of the owner when money
would be of little avail. This is not
taking into consideration the better
part of the proposition that good char
acter alone is sufficient to promote per
sonal satisfaction and secure for the
owner degree of happiness and pleas
ure. There was time when the boy
was supposed to "sow his wild oats"
If he plants such crop at this time
those who deal with him now and who
will deal with him In the future will
demand a proof that the seed of the
wild oats has been extirpated. The
young man who is engaging in bus1-
ness at this time finds that the posses
sion of wealth is not the principal
being in possession of that measure
BILE amount of wealth may come to
him. Reputation is everything. 1t
may be we'll for the people to talk Of
the time when honesty and sobriety
were In better esteem than now, but
there never was time in history when
these qualities were so nearly compul-
sorry. There never was time when
more attention was paid to self-controi
for the good Of the individual and for
the effect on society. If the young
men could only know of the volume of
So1 %1a
word of the interested parties they
would know the meaningo Of honor. If
they could also know that the loss in
this class of transactions is less than
in the class where the signatures are
demanded and oaths are recorded they
would appreciate the qualifications
that must be obtained by the one who
would succeed. If they knew of the
number of men who refuse to transact
business with those they cannot implic
lily trust, aside from all financial guar
antees they would have some idea of
the circles that will be barred to them
in case their regulations should be al
lowed to suffer. Employers Of labor
are demanding that their men shall
have good habits. In this time of COM
petition they cannot afford to have
their trade suffer through the short
comings of those into whose hands it
is given. Employees are coming to de-
mand that the men alongside them at
their work be upright, sober and abb
stemious, for they will not bear the
blame of failures for which others are
responsible and that may be charged
to their account. In short the men who
do not cause their families to suffer
through their own habits will not al
low that their families should suffer
through the habits of others, and the
lines are being drawn closer all the
time. The young man has the chance
to succeed in business if he has the
ability and the right kind Of charac
ter. He has the assurance Of failure
If he has the capital and lacks in char
acter The possession of money will
not add to the credibility OF any man..
for employers know that there is great
chance of loss by the employment of
those who lack the intention to deal
fairly. with them. Integrity, care for
reputation, ability and the desire to
lead the proper sort of life are the
things that will win in the fiiti1Sp

Out of the legislative discussion of the

In the time of Claudius, King of Dem
mark, there may have been divinity
) hedging kings, though the suddenness
with which Claudius. himself shuffied
of this mortal coil indicates that the
divinity didn't hedge him to any great
extent. But in the present age it is
quite evident that though princes con-
tinue to maintain the assumption of di-
vine rfght-which necessarily implies
divine proteetion-they are particularly
careful to supplement that protection
with carnal and temporal measures
against anarchists, nihilists and other
forcible critics of royalty. The elabo-
rate police precautions taken to pre-
vent the blowing up of half the royal
ties OF Europe at Eictoria's funeral
show very clearly that the royalties
themselves use the divine right idea
for publication only. For practical
purposes they prefer to have a squad
of detectives close at hand and troops
within easy hail.

SANTA Re RAILROAD IMPROVEMENTS.
The Main Line to Be Moved Farther Away
Instead of Nearer to Santa Fe,

Despite President E. P. Ripley's let
ter published yesterday, the talk that
the Santa Fe main line would event.
ually find it's way into Santa Fe, can
not be downed. The fact that the San
ia Fe Central has surveyed a line into
the city and that the Lamy branch and
the Denver & Rio Grande have found
a way into Santa Fe, shows that it
certainly is not a physical impossible
ty for the Santa He main line to be
moved in this direction. AS a matter
Of fact, however, the Santa Fe Rail-
road company will change about -
miles of it's track between Glorieta and
Thornton several miles further east,
which will avoid part of the Glorieta
grade and the Apache canon wash
outs. This may make the Lamy
branch line three to five miles longer.
1t will take six months to complete
that work. 1t stands to reason that
the Santa Fe railroad would not go to
the heavy expense of making that
change if it had in mind the bringing
of the main line to Santa Fe.

Tho Killing at White Oaks.

Further particulars Of the shooting
and killing of Juan Barreras at White
Oaks have been received. 1t seems that
Hartley & Carroll, saloon keepers at
Gallo Lake, were in White Oaks and
had gone with two married women to
a cabin. A few minutes afterwards
Bareras appeared, peeped in the WIN
dow and seeing the object of his
wrath, who was one Of the women,
kicked the door in and started to at
tack her. Carroll asked him to stop
abusing the woman and on his failure
to do SO, pulled his revolver and shot
Bareras dead.
The whole party then fled from the
cabin. Hartley and one Of the women
were arrested the next day. but Car
roll and the woman who was the
prime cause of the killing have so far
eluded capture.
