yesterday said openly that he would
release Mcconnell under instructions
furnished him by tho parties interest
cd. II he told where the remainder OF
the stolen money was. Such readi'
ness TO pervert the meaning Of the
laws against crimes Is one OF tho most
serious with which we have
to contend In this territory. In num-
berless instances officers holding
high positions OF trust.--county treas
urers, school superintendent, territor.
ial officials-have stolen the funds
committed to their trust. They. or
their bondsmen have paid back the
stolen money and the embezzlGs went
free. In the case OF smaller thieves,
the same tactics have frequently been
employed.
To such an extent has this method
been carried In New Mexico and Arizo-
ma that a very general impression pre-
walls that an embezzleror a thief Is In
no danger OF the law. IF he provides
before committing his crime, for a
means OF restitution II he gets caught.
No more mischicyous impression could
get abroad. Ono OF the most serious
difficulties that officers whose
duty Il is 20 ENFORCE the criminal law
have ever had, Is with those who are
ready to compound the crime. Wheth-
err the criminal make restitution TO
the person wronged Is of absolute in.
difference to the state. II the indiyid.
ual attempt TO cur the righting OF
his wrong by defeating the ends OF
justice. he loses whatever advantage
an appeal TO the courts would give
him, besides making himself criminal
ly liable. This lesson should be I'M
pressed upon some OF the offenders In
cases like the one instanced.

U ROCKY DIET.

All Americans have indigestion.
Certain baking powders are 30 per

eat. Diseased beef gives us something
worse than indigestion. Even peas

When We quite realize this, the sen.

forced to act. II Is agreeable TO get

POINTED PARAGRAPHS.

Success doesn't amount to so much If
a lot Of age goes with it.
How many things we all have to do
that s'goes against the grain
If you are willing to spend money on
your fads you can find plenty of en-
enlargement in them.
No man says exactly what he means.
To do that would require too much ex-
PLANTATION az qualification.
When you have no other reform to
think about, here is one that is always
important and timely: You talk too
much.
The kicker attracts attention for q
time and affords amusement, but in
little while people become very tired of
him. And how he is hated in his old
age!
We frequently see this statement: ut
requires courage for a man to do his
duty This isn't true. It is always
easier to do right than it is to do
wrong.-Atchison Globe.

City Versus Country Eyes.

In one Of his delightful books DR..
Jessopp remarks that whereas coun-
try people look up Londoners look
down. It is largely this habit that has
limited their observing powers, but
London has itself to blame. l take it
that one can observe we'll only by the
power Of taking large views, and in
London this is impossible, even if one
would, partly from the circumscribing
effect of bricks and mortar, partly
from the dim light of a London dis
lance and partly from the need Of
avoiding collisions. Ones eyes uncon-
sciously acquire a habit of restricted
vision; our observation specializes, like
that of the little girl in Mrs. Meynelps
book who beguiled the tedium of her
walks by collecting shopkeepers named
Jones. Perhaps that is the kind Of OBJ
servation for which we in London are
best suited.-London Outlook.

reply. "This is a court Of Justice, not
