Dockecy's Wrong Point of View

cry is reported to have said that
the flight Of Lient. Gov. Lee chad
cast great odium upon the fair
name Of the state. The Governor
does not put the case accurately.
A heavy weight Of odium rests On
Missouri ut the present time aud is
freely commented upon by 10000
newspapers throughout the coun-
try. but the fact that the lieutenant
governor was q fugitive is bat an
incident in the matter. 4 promi-
nent official might run away with
outin the slightest degree touching
tie reputation of the state. He
might he de,nen,ed or involved in
some individual difficulty. l, is
not Lees fight that has cast odium
on the state. The cause of that
heavy burden is the conditions be-
hind Lees conduct. Several state
senators under Indictment have not
rnn away. O.her indictments are
pending. Stone has not run away.
The flight Of trust agents who have
been corrupting legislatures is not
Missouri shame. The odium is
due to the systematic sale Of law
making functions Of the state to
the monopolies. and the EocdIing
has been going on for many years.
If Lee had remained at home tile
odium on Missouri would be the
same.
If the state authorities had beer
anxious to save Missouri from
odium they would have taken hold

There exists among many persons n
belief that snakes are creatures of
more or less defective organization.
Deprived of legs and reduced to effect
their movements by sinuous windings
of their elongated bodies and tails, they
have san appearance of helplessness
which may by itself excite compassion.
Yet no mistake OF .the kind could well
be greater. The principles of eyolu-
ton suffice to make 1t evident that the
structure of serpents must be toleraDiy
good or else they could never have sur
vived natures many destructive
agencies. But, in fact, their structure
is a marvel of admirable contriyances
and accurate adjustments. SO that we.
must affirm them to be as perfectly
adapted to their requirements and pc
culiar modes Of life as any other ami
mails. - Quarterly Review.
