AFRAID OF THE NEW LAW.
One Hundred JOint-Keepers OF Kansas
City, Kan, May Voluntarily Close to
Avoid Certain Prosecution.

Kansas City, Kan, March 5.-There
is strong talk among the 100 joint
keepers of voluntarily closing their
places because of the recent outbreak
of temperance agitation and the pas
sage of the new law by the Kansas
legislature providing for the issuance
of search and seizure warrants against
places where liquor is known to be
sold. The new law provides that
government stamp or license, the
presence of liquor or a bar and bar
fixtures shall be prima facie evidence
of guilt and sufficient to convict. The
law is the most stringent ever put on
the statute books, and if it holds it
viii be practically impossible for a
Joint to run in a community where
there is one person opposed to joints.

/ Missouri Supreme Court UphoIds the Beer
/ Inspection Measure Enacted Two Years
AgO-OpiniOn Not Unanimous.

Jefferson City, No. March 6.-The
supreme court Tuesday handed down
an opinion declaring the beer inspec-
ton law enacted in 1899 cOnstitu-
tional. The opinion is by a divided
court, Judges Brace, CAN'T. Marshall
and Valiant concurring and Judges
Burgess, Sherwood and Robinson dis
senting. The law levies a tax of IS
cents per barrel on all beer manu-
featured or sold in the state. Beer
shipped out Of the state is inspected
free. 1t is expected that the law viii
raise 100000 revenue annually. The
law was attacked on constitutional
grounds because it Disseminated in
favor of home products and on the
ground that the law was not properly
enacted because IT is a revenue meas
ure under the guise of an inspection
tax The opinion, which was written
by Judge CAN'T, holds that the state
has a right to enforce police regula-
tons regarding the sale of intOx-
icating liquors, and prevent the sale
altogether If II is 50 desired.

CURRENT COMMENT.
NOT MORE LAW BUT BETTER EN-.
FORCEMENT.
(Maine Farmer.)

We Go not believe the remedy lies in the
direction indicated (revival OF capital
punishment). No man ever committed
murder who expaoted TO be caught, and
the possibility of an extreme penalty " III
not deter when reason is detnroned by
rags or rum bluntA the sensibilities.
WHAT Maine needs today is not mora ex-
trsme laws but the certainty that those
upon the statute books will be fearlessly
and impartiaIly executed. The press has
played It's part In cuitivating this nulli-
fivation OF the law by creating false SEN
timent, helping to strengthen the Idea
that the criminal Is martyr and that
a modioum OF punishment balances the
crime. Our State's prison eonvicts are
pictured as dese rving sympathy and the
petitions for pardon always magnify the
punishment already endured. Even In
cases OF life ssntenc, 1t is not uncommon
to hear or see the statement, "He has
already served long enough, and It will
not hurt the State TO let him go free In
his old age" This mawkish sentiment
talism which tends to place every suspect
ed man In the role OF a martyr or raise a
multitude of questionings as to the de-
gree Of criminal intent, tends to create a
want of regard for any law. More than
this, ths iniquitous policy which has pre-
vailed In many counties OF destroying the
efficacy OF the law by ignoring It's plain
requirements has had marked effect
in creating sentiment against all law,
and inevitably given courage to the law
less and criminal.
What. Maine needs today is healthy
regard for the laws upon our statute
books, a public sentiment which Will In
sist not only that the c)urts shall impair
TALLY render a verdict in accordance with
the evidence but that the possibility of
escape from that verdict shall be removed.
There is no question but the evil effects
Of the persistent notification of the LIQUOR
law by the officials sat for their enforce
ment, has done more to vitiate public
morals and open the door for crime than
all else, and there can BIS no doubt but
the surest way to check these more seri-
ous crimes 10 to establish the fact that the
state win punish ali criminals Impartial
ly and fully, and that the rig hts Of the
public must be respected.

Personal AND PECULIAR.

Gen. Lambert, who defended EazsiIles
in 1870, has died in his sixty seventh year.
He Is represented In Alphonse de Men,
ville's famous picture, Les Dernieres
Cartouohes, which reproducss an episode
Of the fight at Bazeilles. Gen. Lambert
was then major in the marine infantry,
and identified with him in the defence OF
the Ardennas town was Capt, Aubert.
The deceased officer, who was a Senator
for his native Department of Finifters,
had been on the retired list OF the French
army since 1896.
Daniel X. Magruder, an ex-Judge of
the Maryland Court OF Appeals, is con-
stable in Annapolis 10 the protest OF
the citizens that constables had not been
appointed. the board in charge OF the
matter replied that they could not find
men to accept the office. When Judge
Magruder stated that plenty OF good men
oould be found, It WAS ban sringly sug-
gested by prominent politician that
the Judge should accept, and he did.

station to the 6ilmour House by the City
Guards. then Baltimore's crack military
organization. Colonel Joe Warner, who
commanded the Guards, WAS BLUM old
soldier, intensely American, with most
pronounced democratic ideas After the
battalion reached the hotel, Mayor Sawnn
who had the prince in charge, invited the
uuced to his royal highness. or course,
Colonel Warner was the first to be 80
honored. Advancing toward the prince,
he grasped his outetretched hand, and,
giving 1t vigorous shake, exclaimed;
"Mr. Wales, am very happy to make
your acquaintance, sirl'' The officers of
the Guards stood aghast at this extreme
cordiality on the part of their comman-
der. and an amused expression came
over the face Of the prince; but, giving
the colonel as vigorous shake as he had
received, he spontaneously expressed
his pleasure at the compliment paid him.
Upon the return of the Guards to their
armory, Major Lloyd Parks. who enter
tanned entirely ditfrent notions of ell
quette from his colonel, took him TO task
for his brufqueness. Colonel Jos listened
in surprise at the rebuke OF his suhordi-
