advantage was the reward of diligence
No matter in whic the government wa
interested was pending, and Bootl
had not committed any offense. Kribb'
didn't want to influence any officer oi
get the land in an unlawful way. Hs
mo ely wanted to know what the gov
q nment had done.
County Judge Webster next took up
the case of Booth. He argued that
under the statute invoked it must be
shown that an official had committed
some act TO influence another tri-
bunal. The indictment was invalid
because Booth was not charged with
doing anything to influence anybody
else. "Kribbs paid the receiver to
notify him frst' he said, "but is
that a matter in which the United
States was interestedf"
Heney, in replying, pointed out that
Booth had agreed to give Kribbs in
formation in advance of all other per-
sons who might be DESTROYS of know
ing and entitled to know the same. No
one could scrip or file upon the lands
until notice of cancellation was re-
ceived at the local land office This
made it plain that Booth, by acting
rs the agent of Kribbs, deprived Others
Of rights guaran' eed them by the gov
srnment In speaking of the punish
mont for violation of section 1882,
which is fixed at not more than two
'ears and $4,000 and carries with it
lebarment flOm ever holding Office
nder the United States government,
lr Heney said that the latter penalty
Tas particularly appropriate in the
ase of Booth. He ridiculed the con-
aE'ions of the defense and wanted to
now if Judge Webster would approve
the action of Booth if he took
.ribb's scrip, kept it in his Office and
sed it to claim land for Kribbs when
yer notices of cancellation came into

Judge Webster fastened TO admit
lat he was not arguing as to the NOR

as that his act was not illegal.

Is Disease a Crime /?

Not very long ago, popular magazine
published an editorial article in which
the writer asserted in substance, that all
disease should be regarded as criminal.
Certain it Is, that much Of the sickness
and suffering of mankind Is due to the
violation of certain of Natures laws.
But to say that all sickness should be
regarded as criminal, must appeal to
every reasonable individual as radically
wrong.
1t would be harsh, unsympathetic,
cruel, yes criminal, to condemn the poor,

SOME PASS HOLDERS.

The pass at old Thermopylae.
According to the story,
Was held by men of Greece, and much
IT added to their glory.
In modern times the congressman
And oiiIccholding classes,
As resolute as any grand
Old Grecian, hold the passes.
You know the tale of ancient days.
For doubtless you have read It,
The way they stuck to that old pass
Was greatly to their credit.
But now to hang on to pass
We think is simply awful
A thing no gentleman would do
And very much unlawful
The way they stuck to that old pass
Was really quite a wonder.
For where could one observe in 1t
The smallest bit of plumber?
The modern statesman IL he had
A pass like that would chuck it
And kick for enc that called for rides
Until he kicked the bucket
BUT while you're talking every one
In Just about that boat is;
There's something strange about O
pass
That makes us all take notice.
And statesmen are not all the ones
Who try to cut the caper;
We all OF us are reaching for
That precious bit of paper.
