The Nebraska State Journal says,

If the men of the South could have foreseen the consequences, Ahey rnighr not nave rushed headlong into rebeIiIon as they did in 1861. But they Iid mol see what they were doing, and broeght upon themselves the war and ali its horrors. the reconstruction era with ali us atrocities, and now their children must carry the burden of millions of bonds issued by irresponsible State governments in the decade following the close of the war. The North cars ries few wounds from the war com. pared with the dreadful marks stiiI shown by the South. ''AA
 Of course 1t was impossible Tor the Southern people to foresee the devilish and damnabIe excesses that would be committed here by certain Northern people. They did not think t possible that such depths of infamy could be reached by American citizens of any section of the Union. If they had fore seen the result it would hardly have prevented secession. but 1t might have made the war more bitter and have nro- Ionged the struggle

For winning victories something more worldly and substantial than an ikon is necessary. as the Russians are finding out. The saying of vcltaire that God is always on the side of the heaviest battalions." may be somewhat irreverent. but certainly in this day battles are not gained by trusting in im- ages and prayers to saints and holy relics. A Russian contributor to The London National Review has these sar- castle references;
 When Admiral Togo's torpedo boats first damaged our battleships, we grew angry and chanted Te Deums. To re- peated torpedo attacks we answered by multiplying prayers. The Japanese prepared for the campaign by dispatch- ing troos, and we answered by opening our folding ikons and raising a1oft our religious banners and crosses and by bending. pliant knees.

THE FOLK WAY.

One of the hardest crimes to detect and punish is what Is now generally known as boodiing. If one man offers a bribe and another accepts it they are both criminals but how is 1t to be proven? Transactions of this nature are usually kept quiet. There are not apt to be any witnesses. and neither party will tell on the other. It is or- dinarily the same when several al c con cerned. Unless the thieves fall out" 1t is difficult to prove anything. This is why there are so few of these criminals convicted. Those whose duty 1t is Co prosecute such offenders get tired too quick trying to secure testimony and give up the job in disgust
 That is not the Joe Folk way. He has had experience in prosecuting this brand of criminals and knows the diff faculties that beset the prosecutors. Follow every clew'' is his maxim and he knows. In recent interview pub lished in The New York World he said:
 It takes time. patience and vigilance to secure evidence against corruption ists that will convict. It is one thing for a poodle story to be a matter of common report and quite another thing to prove the story In a court of law, The only way to secure evidence of bribery Is to investigate and trace to It's source every poodle rumor It may take months or year. but patient and impartial investigation will usually be rewarded. Somebody will tell the truth.
 That last sentence tells 1t. Some body will tell the truth'-that is, if the effort is kept up. No one is likely to volunteer his services as a witness, but If the pursuit Is kept up the right trail is dead sure to be struck in time. Some times a witness lets out the whole or a part of the truth unexpectedly and thus opens the way for further discov- cries. The New York Mall says the way they manage such matters there is Ito talk. to yell grab and to threaten at some indefinite future pe- riod." That Is not the Folk way, and it is not the way to produce results.
