educated at Randolph Macon college
and became a newspaper editor and an

Mr.. Cleveland in his first term appoints

expressions of his with reference to the

not considered a good objection In the

government to pronounce a minister
persona non grata was recognized, and
Mr. Kelley was named as minister to

IS THE LoAFER A CRlMlNAL7

The county attorney of Polk county
is calling for a police crusade against
warrants and loafers to whom ne at
tr;hntes most of the crime, especially
of the pettier sort, which runs riot
in Des Moines, and which has lncfeas-
ed greatly within the past few years.
Viewed from the outside, Des MONIES
;s a hot bed of criminality. The
criminals of that city have OF late
furnished more headlines for the
newspapers than any other in the
state. And much OF. this is, IN the
county attorneys opinion, directly
chargeable to the loafer population.
The charge need not rest with Des
Moines. but may be applied 10 the
state as we'll. The loafer is the under
graduate of crime. Not city or
town in the state but has it's quota OF
lazy and worthless loafers training
for vagrancy. 1t is only step for
the street corner loafer and saloon
stove herder to petty thleVery ana OUT
another step to the holdup at the alley
and possible murder. There is no
class more dangerous to good local
government and more opposed to good
general morals than the loafer.
The old saw that those who will
not work should not eat needs revision.
1t should read all must eat and all
must work. Imprisonment is no cure
for the vagrant and the loafer. What
he needs is a three to six months
enga cement in road making with the
knowledge that return to his pre-
vious habits means another sentence
promptly given for twice the time.
If the loafer is not a criminal he is
always in fair way to become one.
He needs attention in the chrysalis
stage as much as after.
