A Shortage in Harford's Cash.-A dis
patch from Belair says: 1.-THE committee APP
pointed by the Hartford County Commissioners
TO examine the books and accounts OF the
Commissioners Office has submitted its report
to the Board. The report states that there is q
shortage of 81, 65507 in the cash account, and
that the expenditures at the alms-ho and
for the Jail and sherif's office have been large
ly increased during the past few years: Dur
ing the summer it was openly stated that the
coTlnty's finances showed large deficit, and
the Board of commissioner appointed William
II. Harlan and A. II. Strasbaugh. with John
6. Holt, an expert accountant committee to
make a thorough investigation"
Mr.. Hudson Bateman, the clerk, denies any
shortage, and says he can show that the COM

aristotle, Philosopher.

ARISTOTLE that ancient philosopher who
preached morals to the Athenians during the time
that Athens at the zenith Of her glory under the
able craftsmanship of Pericles gave to the world this
bit of wisdom "When men are friends, there is no
need Of justice; but when they are just they still
need friendship.' One does not need to read this
second time to grasp its depth of meaning or to
ascertain it's correctness. The thoughtless reader
might conclude hastily that the best of friends
were at times envious of each other But if he were
to give the subject moments thought, he would con-
TESS that, when becomes envious Of another, It
seriously interiors with true friendship.
The philosophy of Aristotle was as great factor
exaltng the Greeks to that high
to which they had attained, as was the oratory Of
Demosthenes. Even today the philosophy Of
Aristotle is superior to many of the best works ofour
modern writer's. Few people, however, care to study
the writings of age remote as the time when
Aristote's genius was enlightening the world It is
true that the people considered heathens that
they worshipped many GODS and that they consulted
"dumb" oracles and abided by the signs of these
aces; still, their writings have been the wonder Of
this and preceding generations.
Aristotle's influence on modern philosophy is as
great is the architecture of Ictnus and Calicrates
modern designers. His contribution to the
worlds knowledge is exceedingly small compared to
the machineke output of many modern writer's,
but what there is of it, is rich in worldly wisdom
and is Of priceless value.

Judge W,oford's CHARGE.


In SENTENCING prisoner Kansas City Judge,
before pronouncing sentence, made the following
peculiar speech: ''Well, you guilty of murder
all right but you poor Ignorant, account black
man, and l don't want to hang you. If | sentence
you to hang you will hang just there is a
God in heaven. You will just beforgotten
until the day set for your hanging, and then they
will hang you"
It is evident from the foregoing that this Judge
does not believe in making an example of be-
cause he is poor and without friends It is true that
such sentiments should not be COMPOUNDED with JUS
tice. Abraham Lincoln voiced similar sentiments
when Secretary Stanton urged him to make an ex-
ample of a private soldier who had deserted When
Mr. Stanton got thru pleading to have the man shot,
Lincoln replied: "You say the has no influential
friends? Well, will be his friend!" Perhaps when
Judge Woford was called upon to sentence this
frendless colored man, he thought of Lincons JUS
tceto the private soldier and instead of infictingthe
extreme penalty, he sentenced the to thirty
years in prison.

Poor PENNSYLVANIA.

I'OOT pennsylvania.
The aristocratic mionaires of Pennsylvania
are rapidly making that state the most notorious in
the Union In fact the peccant acts of it's cultured
citzens-those pillars Of society who looked up
on as models by the rest of the community because
of their wealth and infuence-have attracted the at
tenton of the world These unpleasant incidents
are welcomed with much enthusiasm by socialists
who claim. with some logic, that this is example
of what predatory wealth leads to.
If this unsavory brand Of publicity continues
much longer the reckless, discontinued mionaires
of that state will be forced to adopt Alcbadean
tics in order to attract public attention from their
personal affairs. But if this should prove insufficient
to protect the dignity Of that state, the governor
should place them under heavy bonds to keep the
peace This class have all the advantages which
wealth can procure One would naturally expect
that their morals and their respect for the majesty of
the law would he above reproach. However, their
attainments to have stunted their finer instincts
Instead of using their money to enrich and to upift
humanity they appear to be squandering their
wealth in bacchanalian STYLE thus setting example
the like of which caused the downfall of Rome. It
is to be hoped that the millionares of Pittsburg
have run the gamut of foolishness, and that an
precedented era of responsibility has set in

The Case of Patrick.

me case OF FOtTIcE.
THERE are those who assert that the laws delay
in the case of Lawyer Patrick, of New York. is set
ting extremely bad precedent for those who are
able to postpone the decree of the court They also
claim, andwth considerable BUSINESS, that these
necessary delays will have tendency to create dis
regard for law, and, indirectly, to encourage mob
violence. These conjectures would be true if there
did not exist reasonable doubt as to his guilt.
This doubt of guilt exists even with Attorney Jer-
ONE, as he personally, on occasion, interviewed
and asked that the execution be postponed.
Those who imagine that Mr.. Patrick is defeat
ing the ends of justice by these delays would
their opinion if they were similarly situated. He
has already approached death half dozen times.
1t is well known that execution is practically pain
less and what little suffering there u.s. is of shortdur
alton. The real suffering is that which occurs
previous to the hanging or electrocution It is the
imagnatons and anticipations of the brain whereby
the real pain is produced If this be true then Mr.
Patrick has already suffered the tortures of several
executions. This phase of the case should cheer
even his worst enemies.
If there were some provision on our statute
books that would enable the jury or Judge to grant
reasonable delay in where guilt has not been
clearly established it would free the judiciary Of
much unfavorable criticism It would also give the
accused ample time to prove his contention. It
would also prove economical to the state and to the
man who is fighting for his life. When man is
found guilty and the date Of his execution fxed the

important nature.
