THE HAND OF DEATH
stealthily Reaching Out for Saint
and Sinner.

Like the sword of Damocles the
gaunt hand Of Death is suspended
over each one of us and only waits
till the time is ripe to gather in the
inevitable harvest.
If human beings only understood
themselves better and observed the
laws Of nature as carefully as they
do legislative enactments, the average
length Of life would be doubled. II
The prime factor in longevity is
careful treatment Of the digestive or
gans. They supply the elements of
health and life and chiefly acquire the
elements of disease and death.
Dyspepsia is the principal barrier
which stands before health and Ion
gevity. 1t has been aptly called the
Mother Of all disease and has fully
justified it's title. Chase's Dyspepsia
Cure is aimed at this one disease and
never did marksman hit a bullseye
with greater precision. Many enthu-
siasts have called it miraculous, and
the many thousands Of cures it has
effected would seem toagprove the
truth Of the assertion. No medicine
has ever, within a given time, restored
so many sufferers to health and hap
piness, for true happiness cannot exist
without health Don't ignore what
seem to be trifiing symptoms, for they
are the beginning of the serious mall
ady. Indigestion, nausea, foul breath,
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES, nervousness, distress
after eating, GOODNESS of the extremi-
ties and pressure on the heart are
some of the forerunners Of dyspepsia,
and should be checked at once.
Chase's Dyspepsia Cure will do this
with absolute certainty, and is so rapid
in it's action that the, first dose will
give relief. All druggists sell it under
guarantee of it's effectiveness or money
refunded.

the views of Prof. Cooley and other
well-known students of sociology the
best way for society is to sentence the
convict who comes in the class just re-
ferred to for a term of unspecified
length which will give him chance to
work out his own salvation Compe-
tent judges of human nature should be
given the right and duty to determine
when his reformation has reached such
point that he would be of more value
TO society as free man than he is as a
dweller within prison walls. The indie
terminate sentence recognizes that the
prison is not for punishment so much as
it is for the protection of society II
the prisons can be made to protect So
ciety better by making useful citizens
Of those sent to their cells and corridors
than they can by making living graves
for them, or places in which certain
portion of their lives is to be spent, re-
CARELESS of whether they have attempt
ed to profit by the time spent there to
make themselves fit to be citizens once
more, then that is the way the prisons
should be allowed to work. The spirit
of the indeterminate sentence law is
that of education and betterment. 1t
takes the unfortunate who comes to the
door of the penitentiary and performs
as truly work of education for him as
the school and university does for the
youth of the country. 1t cannot hope
to attain the same results--it doesn't have
the same material to work with, but it
works for citizenship and the better
ment of society by the betterment of in
dividuals as much as other institutions.
The entire subject was handled by Prof.
Cooley as well asst could have been by
any student of the subject in the time at
his disposal 1t was revelation to per-
haps the majority of those present, but
good should certainly come from it. 1t
is quite likely that more than one state
senator or representative will be asked
by some one who heard Prof, Cooley 8
address, to give his assistance to the per-
fecting and passing of the bill now be-
fore the Michigan legislature providing
for the indeterminate sentence in this
state. 1t is a reform which should be
made, but the law making it should be
very carefully enacted, so that there
NAV NOT result an ini,1ry tO society in
stead of benefit to it.

Indeterminate Sentence.

One of the important reforms which
people of the State of Michigan are
asked to consider at the present time is
that embodied in what is known as the
indeterminate sentence for criminals
The subject was well handled at the
roundup in the Armory, Wednesday
night by Prof. Chas H. Cooley, of the
University of Michigan. In brief the
system provides for the mere sentencing
10 prison by the Judge who tries the Of
fenders instead of as at present sentenc-
ing the prisoner for some defuite term
Of years. This, however, would not
apply to those convicted of the more
heinous crimes, such as the ones calling
FOR sentence for life under the present
system. The person who has made one
mistake and been sent to states prison
for his offense, and especially the young
offender who may have been far less TO
blame for his fall than his parents or
some of his associates who escaped the
grip of the law, deserves something
better at the hands of society than be-
ing made criminal for life And so
ciety deserves more at its own hands
than to make him such. According to

porarily insane, can get it back again.
And the records do not show when we
buy from heirsof an estate, whether all
the heirs have signed the necessary
papers. That invalidates the title also.
1t is frequently the case that registers
of deeds are men who know nothing of
law who are politicians merely, and
frequently through their errors. the re-
cords are incorrect, and the title is in
correct. 1t is getting in the large cities
to be serious problem where to store
the many records which are accumulat-
ing. Notwithstanding these accumula
tions, they prove little or nothing, for in
buying any piece of property we must
take our risks Those are the faults of
our present system. Now for the new
system proposed.
The Torrens system proposes to reg
lister the title, once and for all, abso-
lutely and indefeasibly. Further, it
proposes to clear and settle the title,
and then simplify the method of trans
fer.
The procedure is as follows: If you
wish to register your land, you apply
to the proper court, stating the title,
which is then examined by proper Off
GERS; due notice must be given to all
who may have adverse claims. Those
who have such claims present them,
and the courts dispose of them by law
and justice.
If the title is proven clear, the owner
is given a certificate of title, a copy of
which is kept on file. After the issue
of that paper, there must be surrender
of title and the issue of a new certifi-
cate. Due notation must be made ON
the certificate on file. No title, and
this is an important point,-may be
subject to invalidation after it has been
registered, on the ground of adverse
possession.
Under the Torrens system, when
man dies, this law provides that the
titles may be registered in the heirs.
While an estate is in process of settle
ment, notation is on the certificate.
Thus another defect of the present sys-
tenn is remedied. The new system
shows exactly who are the heirs.
Under the Torrens act, a mans prop
erty is more marketable: it places it
on the same footing as stocks and bonds.
Nowadays a man cannot borrow money
on his land without registering the
mortgage, publishing it to the world.
Under the new system, he can borrow
money on the certificate without telling
the world of it.
Abstract companies and some lawyers
will oppose the adoption of the Torrens
system, from selfish motives, as tending

Shall We Guarantee Profits to Aliens
or to Our Own People?

From the American Economist.
The ethical and the economic aspects
of the question of special Tariff conces-
sions to the Cuban producers of raw
sugar are clearly, forcibly and ably pre-
scented in the subjoined letter from Con-
gresham Fordney of Michigan. In the
whole range of literature called forth
by the Cuban controversy we do not re-
call a more instructive and important
contribution than this. Stripped of
verbiage and condensed into the plain
est and most pointed proposition, the
question to be considered is:
Shall we by lowering the Tariff guar
antee to the Cuban planter $50 per acre
for his sugar cane produced at rela-
lively low labor cost, while at the same
time we refuse any guarantee to the
American farmer whose top yield per
acre has been $4,000, out of which he
must pay two or three times the labor
cost which his Cuban competitor pays?
1t is proposed in the Cuban treaty not
only to guarantee the Cuban planter $50
per acre for his cane, but to reduce very
materially the amount which the Amer
| lean farmer shall receive for his crop of
sugar beets. Already the market price
of sugar beets in California has been
reduced 80 cents per ton in anticipation
of the reciprocity dicker with Cuba.
How much lower the price will go when
Havermeyer's Sugar Trust shall be
given the advantage of lower duty on
raw sugar from Cuba remains to be
SEEN. Be this as it may, one thing is
certain: 1t is to the interest of the
Sugar Trust to crush out beet sugar
competition.in order to obtain monop-
oily of refining sugar for American con-
sumption. Every ton of beet sugar put
on the market means direct loss to the
Sugar Trust of $40. The more beet
sugar produced the less there is for the
Sugar Trust to refine at profit of SO
per ton. 1t is easy to see why the Sugar
Trust wants the Cuban treaty ratified.
Congressman Fordney's letter throws
much light on the subject:
| Committee on the Merchant Marine
and Fisheries. House Of Representa-
tives, United States, Washington, Feb
ruary 5, 1908. My Dear Sir:-Replying
to yours of the Goth, in which you in
close copy of resolutions opposing the
pending Cuban reciprocity treaty,
adopted by the American Protective
Tariff League, dated January Is, 1908,
would say;
am heartily in sympathy with the
sentiments expressed in these resolu-
TONS As an illustration of the evil of
reciprocity where there is a reduction
of the duty on foreign imports into the
United States that come in competition
with American products, let me express
my views on one particular item pro-
posed in the present Cuban reciprocity
treaty now before the United States
Senate. If this treaty becomes a law
it reduces the duty on Cuban sugar 90
per cent, and as the present duty on
raw sugar is 1864 per 100 pounds, a
reduction Of 90 per cent from this duty
means 80 TO per 100 pounds, about
1856 per ton of 2,24O pounds. The
Cuban farmer or planter, so called,
takes his cane to the factory and re-
ceives as pay therefor one-half the sugar
made therefrom, the factory retaining
