CONCERNING GOOD CONDUCT.

CONCERNING GOOD CONDUCT.
The condition of the pardon could
have little force, ii the time the re-
lator was at large should be counted
as time served.
Tn" case of Woodward IS. Murdoch,
1874 Ind. 439, upon which the relator
largely relies, holds that tina time the
prisoner was at large under the parole
should be counted rs part Of his
service under sentence of imprison-
| m"nt
That case does not show that the
parole recited what the term Of SER
| vice should be in case of breach of
| parole.
The right to deduction for good
| conduct under Sec. 5214 V $. would
seem to be absolute. and the account
| therefor is kept from month to month
in the manner of debit and credit as
| it were It would seem, therefore
that the relator is entitled to deIuc-
| tiun for the good time gained up 10
| the time OF his release on the condi-
| tional pardon. and since his recon-
mitmeut, but that deduction should
be from the maximum term.
Tho court in - VT 4@4, has held
| that sentence for a maximum and
minimum term is in law for the max
| imum term.

Both Senator Spooner and Sena-
tor La Toilette voted against the
Ship Subsidy bill, and for that act
Wisconsin heartily commends them.
But suppose they had been Senators
from Maine, or Massachusetts,, is it
likely that, if they had SO voted,
public opinion there would as cor
daily have sustained them2 Wis
consin doesn't build, own, or oper-
ate ships in foreign trade. Our in
ter7st in ships from local standpoint
is remote, but that the bill has merit
is shown in the fact that President
Roosevelt, who is supposed to favor
no section to the prejudice of anoth-
er, says that in his opinion the meas
ure is one of the utmost importance.

The census shows that there are
I,638,32I more males than females in
the United States as a whole but in
Massachusetts, Rhode Island and
the District of Columbia the women
outnumber the men. Comparing
the sexes at different ages Of life it is
seen that late in life the women out
number the men. The most pecul-
lar feature of the census in compar-
ing the sexes as to their comparative
number is seen in the ages between
10 and Is. If the men outnumber
the women, taking no particular age
into consideration, they would nat
urally be supposed to be in the ma
jority during this period of vigorous
existence. But the census records
more women than men between the
ages of 10 and 25. What explana-
alton can be given Of this peculiar
feature Of the census figures? Well
there are few women that get to be
more than twenty-three until they
are forty.
