PORTLAND AND SALEM MURDERS

The killings heralded out of the
metropolis and the capital during the
past 100 hours are dreadful to con-
template from every point of view.
The D'Anna- -Gholson murder at Sa-
lem was without the faintest ves-
tige Of cause or excuse and was a
direct and pitiable result of whiskey;
the Murray whitney killing at Port
land had a real basis of justification
and engages popular sympathy.
Whiskey- insanity is sponsor for far
too many such fearful episodes and
invites the specific intervention of
society, in the larger sense, upon the
sheer footing of public safety. The
first sign of intoxication should be-
come the signal for instant incarcer-
alton and confinement for such cause
should end only with the attainment
of normal mental conditions. Some
such expedient as this will have to
be employed in the interest Of com
mon defense against the madness OF
the liquor fiend. The reported ground
of the killing of young Whitney by
the brother of the girl he had ruined,
furnishes ample pretext for the deed,
and, while we are averse to such rad
ical measures as a rule, We cannot
help measuring the method to the
scope of the cause and finding palli-
alton for the deed. Recourse to this
means of vengeance has a tendency
to check the deliberate and far too
common sin against young girlhood,
and is not to be deprecated hurriedly
Either case supplies broad ground for
commiserating thought and inspires
resort to healthier laws for the pro-
lection of society.

reached the stage of reprisals, and the

About Rheumatism

There are few diseases that inflict
more torture than rheumatism and
there is probably no disease for which
such a varied and useless lot Of rem
edies have been suggested. To say
that it can be cured is, therefore, a
bold statement to make, but Chamber
lain's Pain Palm, which enjoys an ex-
tensive sale, has met with great sue
cess in the treatment Of this disease.
One application of Pain Balm will re-
lieve the pain, and hundreds of suffer
ers have testified to permanent cures
by its use. Why suffer when Pain
Balm affords such quick relief and
costs but a trihe? For sale by all
druggists.
