WIFE BEATING.

OF course, the old question vii

manhood he has left And it will bt
objected that Of the principle of poet
ic justice obtain a place in the statute
I bucks That crime will increase rather
than diminish Should the man wht
shot his Wife. for intancc. I've shot. ~
only hang or he eicctrocuted in the
regulation manner Shoutd the stab
htr he stabbed. and the slugger
slugged. the nashcr mashed and the
tlrottIer throttlod ? There are some
nice points involved.
But lhero are number of cynical
philosophers the world over aud we
hasten to state that we do not agree
with them who will claim that the
President is on the wrong side of the
question entirely. The only point
for controversy anent the matter of
wife beating. they say. is this:
Should man beat his wife only
when she deserves beating, or beat her
regularly as matter of discipline? !?
Is wife beating always q duty or only
an occasional duty?
The world has been divided on this
question for many centuries. Not long
ago we were compelled to chronicle
the troubles of lady who asked for
a divorce from her husband on the
grounds that he treated her too well
he was so good to her that he bored
her. There was not enough spice in
her life. she said. she would not bear
to see her "life's commotion settle
down To ennui's ocean. If her hus-
band had oniv beaten her now and
then she would have continued to love
and respect him When she wanted
70 quarrel with him he was so pro-
vokinglv bland and kind that it threw
her into Mysteries. He was Il perfect
brute; he absolutely refused to quarrel
or fight
lie was perfectly incapable OF real
izing and ministering that subtle, MI
feminine demand for domin-
ltions
In the old days, before civilization
and eniightment and all that sort of
hing hntted' onto the scene, men
heat their wives as matter of course |
he wife gloried in the strong arm OF
her husband. and all went merry as
bell There were no divor-
ees. No one has gone 90 far as TO
slaln that the increase in divorces
to the decrease III wife
beating. but it is a suggestion which
we offer to the plodding statisticians
as the basis for investigation. The
only question is whether man should
beat his wife every day, just as he
eats, drinks and smokes Mt regular in 4
or wlethr he should beat her
when she needs it. OF course. as we
have been very careful to explain.
this Is is s,'ss'ss-srir view Of the matter 4 4
AL. We merely give the cynical view
point. Bnt one thing is clear to us
at least Mr.. Roosevelt has forever
lost the vote Of all approving philosc-
pliers aud active wife beatcrs. Baton

John Sharp Williams was trying to
hold his own with some republican
congressman in chatting match over
the election. The Mississippi man in
sisted that the democratic party was
still factor. Not big one, may
be, = he said but still there is some
thing left. Reminds me of the young
fellow from down my way who got
the Texas fever and went west several
years ago. He couldn't hold his own
with the cowboys. and after a time
he came home. just how can I say.
but he managed to get to the outskirts
of his home town. He sent note to
his father, saying:

 During my very brief visit. I saw nothing more majestic than the great lion, Sultan" who, when T entered, was lying with his massive head rest ing easily, on his great forepaws Presently he began to lick those paws with his broad tongue-earefulIy, lovingly. it seemed. as good sports man might clean his favorite gun. Then he arose and began to pace his cell. in silence, and with a dignity not to be described. Three or four paces to the, right, the same to the left, and then he strode to the right again. Each time he came about he pivoted on the ball of his hind foot, as a soldier does. How many thousands of times he had paced the front of that cage, no one will ever tell, but so many that even his soft pads in piyoting had worn de- rpressions in the hardwood floor. He saw us all, in that surging crowd, but he looked at none, as tried tostudy the whole picture with an .unpreiudiced eye, was forced to admit that our dignity compared with his was small indeed. And as I watched the mighty free-born thing. pacing out his life flor the the glory of man." I asked myself what phrase might describe him.
