+ the next Legislature shall pass a bill
which has been framed by Represents
live Frank B. Wickersham, of Dau-

Wickersham said that his six years
experience as Assistant District Attor-

that more children are ruined by the
theatre than by any other institution.
I have often heard children in the
criminal courts attribute their down
2all to the theft Of small sums with
which to go to the theatres" said
WiclSersham.
These children stole to see plays
which did them great harm, and hav-
az acquired a taste for the pleasure,

atisfy their passion for the theatre

WHAT WOULD THE CARDINAL sAY2

| It is characteristic of the Roman
Catholic clergy to call a spade a spade
Public addresses made by the prelates
| of that church usually deal with their
subjects with positiveness and in plain
speaking. Archbishop Keane, not only
talks temperance, but enforces it in his
diocese. His influence is openly exert
ed against the liquor traffic and is the
| attitude of the Catholic church where
he has supervision and control. 1t is
force for decency and order not to
be underestimated.
Cardinal Gibbons is a plain speaker
i and wont to deal with modern evils
| in blunt d-fashioned way In a SER
mon delivered in Baltimore recently he
| said:
No man can be good Christian who
| sets at defiance the laws of the COM
monwealth. The man that breaks the
laws of the state is violating at the
same time some commandment of the
decalogue The citizen who buys or
|
power by intrigue and bribery, is a
thief and is transgressing the COM
| mandment which says Tho shalt not
steal"
Here is plain statement with ven
geance but who shall question its ac-
| curacy? Is the briber and buyer of
other men thief and is the seller of
himself also thief? Cardinal Glib
bons says he is. He will find great
many old-fashioned people ready to
agree with him.
Somehow the rough monosylabbic
Anglo-Saxon words seem to fit crime.
Thief is hard word. 1t jars. de
linauency,'' lapse" and moral
obliquity" run more trippingly off the
tongue. 1t isn't so extremely bad to
be called a delinquent but it is
terrible to be named thief. We have
fallen into a fashion of upholstering
language as well as Jail furniture for
certain classes of criminals. Conse-
quently there is something attractive
about Cardinal Gibbons one Syllable
style Of classifying rogues.
Specializing from his plain classifi-
cation OF vote buyers and sellers what
would Cardinal Gibbons be likely to
call the man who hides property and
"swears off, his taxes?
What term would the cardinal apply
to leading churchmen whose drug stores
belong in the class designated as
"whiskey drug stores o.
How about the loan shark who
squeezes from 80 to so per cent per
annum out Of his victims when the
law defines the highest legal rate as
8 per cent? What would the cardinal
say?

tuition and, more than that, they have
strong power over the mental and
nervous system. Anything that smells
like monye has a. similar effect on this
side of the Atlantic.
The scheme of tagging soldiers is
nothing new. Something similar has
been in operation down on the 90
for years.
Could Mr.. Porter be called the Peary

closer to the poll than his immediate
predecessors.
Whence the Red Man?" is the head
over the leading editorial in the Iowa
City Republican. 1t does not refer
to Mr.. Brant's lodge on the "reserva-
tion," however.
The Eldora Herald says 1t has en-
deavored to be consistent in this cam
ceeded.
The publication Of the late Queen
Victoria's letters, written and receiv-
ed by her during the most interesting
part OF her reign, has abain been post
poned. The truth is that so many
painful family revelations, which
would affect living members of we'll
known families, have been discovered
that wholesale revision of the three
volumes is now being made. Many
heads of families have approached the
king on the matter, fearing lest their
private affairs should be made public,
with the result that his majesty has
now ordered that no letter shall be
printed until it his been read and
approved by himself. Thus the three
volumes will be robbed of much
spice but they are expected to be
of absorbing interest in spite of the
liberal cutting"
