AMONG the ideas advanced during the
last campaign was one that the state ap-
preparation for the support of public
schools would be advanced from So per
cent. to 80 per cent. The committee on
appropriations is reported to be opposed
to any advance and the old percentage is
to be retained. There is no reason what
ever for this decision. The condition Of
the state treasury is such as to warrant
the increase of the appropriation fol
schools.

SENATOR HoRNER and Assemblyman
Robbins. of Burlington County, are too
far apart in their ideas of the proper
punishment for fiends guilty of criminal
assault on women. The latter succeeded
in getting bill through the House max
ing the penalty $4,000 fine and imprison-
ment for thirty years, a proposition which,
coming from the county where such a
horrible example of the worst of all crimes
was committed only few months ago, is
surprising in its leniencY. 1t is a milder
penalty than the court was able to inflict
on the perpetrators of the outrage that in
spired the measure.
Senator Horner's bill, introduced at the
time of the passage of the Robbins bill in
the House, is more in accordance with
popular sentiment. 1t provides for the
imposition of the death penalty for persons
convicted of rape. but in leaving this
sentence to the discretion of the jury the
Trainer of the bill has committed serious
error. There is very prevalent senti
ment in favor of inflicting the very
highest penalty known to the law upon
the monsters that commit this heinous
crime. regarded as worse than murder
But whether the law shall prescribe
death or life imprisonment, it should fix il
definitely and not leave it to the discretion
of jury. That would probably lead to
defeating the ends of justice. Few juries,
if allowed loophole for escape, would be
likely to agree on death penalty. 1t is
difficult now to get juries to bring in a
first degree verdict in murder trial be-
cause of that reluctance. Leaving the
fixing of the punishment for any crime to
the discretion of jury is wrong in prin-
ciple. That is not proper function of
juries, which fulfill their whole duty in
determining by the evidence whether the
crime charged has been committed The
law should fix the penalty and the judge
impose the sentence. -Neaoark Adcertiser.

AN opinion has been handed down by
the United States Supreme Court uphold
ing the constitutionality of the Massachu-
sets compulsory vaccination laws. The
decision says the safety and health of the
people of Massachusetts, are for the peo-
pie of that commonwealth to guard and
protect. The opinion settles the right Of
a state to enforce laws that will not only
protect its own citizens but will also pre-
vent the spread of contagion. There have
been instances of complaint and threats to
defy the authorities in efforts to enforce
the laws on vaccination, but this opinion
by the United States Court will put stop
to all that hereafter.

THERE is measure being considered by
the Legislature which is intended to ben
eft members of volunteer fire companies
by allowing township or city authorities
to pay active fremen $40 per year. This
is to compensate for the loss of the tax
exemption which was declared unconsti-
tutional. The idea may be all right but
if the bill should become law there
should be vigorous action on the part of
the fire companies to prevent the authori-
ties from being imposed upon. In many
places there are on the membership roll
names of men who do not even pretend to
be active. They are willing to contribute
for the benefit of their organization but
they do not care to work, not being fitted
for fire duty. There are others who are
able and willing to fight fire and are
never tardy in responding to calls day OF
night. Those are the men who should be
compensated, and the number of such car
be kept down to small roll.

A NEWS dispatch from Lewiston
states that there are strong indica-
tons that the combine between
Governor Gooding and Judge b.
rah has been broken. The same
authority declares that the fault
lies with Mr.. Borah and not with
the Governor. 1t has been repeat
ed that there was an understand
ing between Governor Gooding and
Mr.. Borah at the Moscow conven-
ton whereby Mr.. Borah was to
support Mr.. Gooding for the guber-
material nomination at that time
and for denomination next year,
and in return Mr.. Gooding was to
keep out of the Senatorial fight
himself aud throw no stones in Mr..
Borah's way, in his aspirations for
Senator. 1t is now pointed out
that Mr.. Borah, through his father
in-law, Ex-Governor Mcconnell,
and his organs in various parts OF
the state, having opened up a
ferocious fight on the Governor,
that Mr.. Gooding is no longer
bound by the terms of the agree
ment, and is free to enter the Sen.
atorial race himself, or assist some
other candidate. That Mr.. Borah
has been unfaithful to his agree
ment seems to be born out by the
tone of the Borah organs in the
state, who, week in and week out,
are waging a vicious war on Gov
ooding.

EDITORIAL NOTES.

SENATOR Dubois has not given
up hope that he may be returned
to the United States Senate. The
outlook for his success is about as
glocmy as it could be, and is such
that it would discourage any other
man thai Dubois. hut the Senator
is a past master in the art of poll
tics and has nerve. and sees con-
tingencies ahead that may land
him back on the convicted cushion.
&c has announced that he will
make the fight on the Normon
issue again. In the last campaign
the Mormon issue and the anti
'iormon candidates received a We
ry small vote SO small as to lend
little encouragement to the future.
But there is no denying the fact
that there are a vast number OF
voters with Dubois on that same
Mormon question, and if they
could have voted for his issue with
out voting against Republican
policy, the result might have beer
a surprise. Next year. is an off
year in politics and therecent elect.
ions have demonstrated that an
Independent wave is sweeping over
the country, and Dubois has made
himself solid with Roosevelt. Sim
cere or insincere, it will be the
policy of Senator Dubois to sc
tumble the politics of the state that
the contingency he seeks may
arise. 1t is not likely he can sue,
coed, hut he will have to be reckon.
