The execution of Mrs. Rogers in
Bennington, W, was a horrible affair,
but we do not. see that Governor Bell
could have done otherwise than to let
the law of the state take It's course.
The idea of hanging a woman is revolt
ing, but we do not see how it could be
helped in this case. The woman was
guilty of murder. The law Of the
state says Il person guilty Of such
crime Shall suffer death. Governor
Bell IS personally opposed to capital
punishment, and he was averse to
signing the death warrant for Mrs.
Rogers, but he had either TO see the
law of the state executed or set it
aside when there was no reason
whatever for so doing. He was in a
most unenviable position. Duty urged
him one way: feelings of humanity
and sympathy for Il oma strongly
pleaded against duty. He stood firm
and let the law of his state take it's
course. We think he is deserving Of
praise as we'll as of sympathy in this
matter.

There should be some limit TO the
introduction in congress of petitions for
legislation and of bills Introduced by
request. We know that often men,
bsrs of congress and state legislatures
Introduce bills at the request of on
stituents OF which they do not approve.
They often have to do this, but we do
think that men who have been elected
should have backbone enough to refuse
to introduce some petitions and bills
that are presented TO them. a case OF
this kind occurred in Washington last
Thursday when Vice President Fair
banks introduced a petition signed by
Miss Miranda Clymer. Of Bridgeton,
Y. j., asking congress to grant a pen
sion of from thirty nine TO five hun
dred dollars a month Ito all persons in
the country who are alone in the world
wnen they cannot maintain them
selves" One would think that a man
Of such prominence as Vice President
Fairbanks would refuse to present TO
congress such an absurd petition for
legislation. The idea Of the congress
of the United States grayely consider
ing a proposition to pay a pension of
from thiTty-nine to five hundred dol
lars a month to every lonely person
in the country is too absurd to be seri-
ously contemplated; still the vice presi-
lent and the presiding officer of the
senate gravely presents such petition
to that body. 1t shows to what tricks
even the leading statesmen Of our
country will stoop to gain popularity.

TES1ERDAT1S STOCK MARKET.

Nearly Half Million Shares Sold in
 First Hours DeaIings-ClOse Irregu-
 lar. F..
 New York, Aug. 17.-Nearly half a
 million shares of stocks were sold to- Rday in the first hours dealings on the
 stock exchange. The transactions of
 the first hour are the most significant
 of the day, and are the crucial test
 of the tone of the market in the ma- jority of cases. The extreme animation
 during that period to-day was convinc- ing evidence of the growth of seculative interest. Large orders came from vari- bus quarters. Every device was used to. make the opening prices high for the benefit of those who desired to realize | profits with the advantage of this grow ing outside demand. The accumulated l buying demand was felt steadily dur I ing the whole ofythe first hour in the 1 process of realizing profits The result was a growing tendency to yield, which became more marked as the ac- cumulated buying orders were worked off. But when this condition of affairs began to be evident there was a dis continuance of the pressure to sell which threw the market of the middle portion of the day into dullness. The ahsorptive power demo nstrated while the selling was active served to en- courage professional speculative senti- ment to such an extent that efforts were resumed later in the day to get prices up again, advantage thus being secured also for the renewal of profit taking sales with the next days ac4 emulation of new buying orders. This has been about the course of the mar. ket for several days, with some varia- tion in the effect relatively in the prof it taking sales, and the new buying orders. Immediate new events were of little consequence in the market and nothing occurred in fact to change the general conditions existing. Stocks of eastern railroads were notably held back by the pressure to realize, Reading being the conspicuous example, al- though that stock touched new high record during it's period of strength, CO uld 1ALlCI' WHICH, was tue SLEOuS eA- ception in the group. Union Pacific was again very conspicuous, and was the subject of the most talk of deals and of mysterious developments. The enthusiastic forecasts of the corn crop helped Missouri Pacifis to an additional advance. The favorable condition re- ported by the trade authority in the iron and steel industry had it's effect on the stocks of companies connected with the various branches of that in dustry. The extra dividend, on United States Reduction and Refining explain ed the advance in the stocks of that company. Reports that the~often pro- jected Lead merger was again aban- doned depressed National Lead and had some effect also on American Smelling.
 The money market continued easy The digestive process continued up to the close, which was made irregular by the heavy profit taking in some stocks, and the late rise of about a point in the United States Steel stocks and some others.
 Bonds were steady. Total sales. nar value, $3,SS0,0O0.
 United States 2s advanced 3-S her cent. on call.
