at is usually the case that the preach
er gives his people too m uch spiritual
food and too little mental food, while
the people give the preacher too little
natural food and expect the Lord to
supply the deficiency" In regard to
the amount of spiritual food, it seems
to the Republican that too much cun-
not be given. The trouble is that too
much that is offered as spiritual food
is not food at all, but an indigestiblc
mess Of human ConCGits in which the
element of food is entirely lacking. II

presence or absence Of mental food will

ENTERTAINMENT NO FELONY.

MI jerome, the spectacular district attorney OF
New York. has delivered himself Of a brief. in which
he holds that che contributions to political parties OF
trust funds by insurance officials is not a crime, be.
cause It can not be shown that it was done with
felonious intent. ITO be larceny he adds, "such
appropriations Of policy holders money would have to
be made. under the penal code, with intent to deprive
or defraud the true owner of his property, or the use
and benefit thereof
The washington Post thinks that doubtless Mr..
Jerome is right when he cortends that the act Is not,
strictly speaking. larceny, az It is not larceny simply
because It is embezzlernent. a crime that is close kin
to larceny. 1t is not larceny because it was the act
Of a trustee. The property Of the policy holder was
deprived Of the use of it. or the benefit of it. These
are excellent signs of larceny, and when done by a
trustee they are indubitable signs Of embezzlement;
ana it is a crime. whether it be larceny or embezzle-
ment.
The public conscience has revolted against that
sort OF thing, and it is time, for so enormous has the
abuse grown that a contribution Of $4,000 from a
trust fund to one Of the political treasures was so
insignificant an affair that the treasurer who re-
ceived It entirely forgot the transaction and cursed
and damned about it like Peter when he denied the
Master. The cock did not crow even once, but Andy
Hamilton drew a receipt that must be a very annoy
ing document to somebody

transfer them to a foreign fund. in which his clients
have no interest, and thus deprive his clients of the

munity to indictment, alleging that he had no felon-
ious intent, the law making enlightenment a crime
might as well be repealed. The intention Of Mr..
Mccall and the others, no doubt, was to benefit their
policy holders. and they argued that It was given to
them to commit crime that good might follow.
It was giving loose to a vicious Interpretation of
good morals. It was gathering figs from thistles. 1t

II this country only had a peep into the books of

conscience would not only be aroused. but it would

save waen a stray Mccall, or Perkins, or Hamilton
rises to a personal explanation.

The Dual Purpose Outlook.

No one who is close observer can
fail TO see that there are here and there
indications of change in sentiment
as to the place the Shorthorn is to
loccupy in the near future. The day OF
the western. range with its great beef
herds is passing. The beef must soon
be produced under different conditions.
Smaller holdings and more intense
farming, with fewer items of loss, will
soon be the rule, writes correspond
ent to Breeders Gazette.
Under these changed conditions it is
doubtful IL the farmer can afford to de-
pend for profit on the cows maintained
on the steer alone. 1t is, l think, abso-
lutely certain he will seek for some
thing in addition. That can only be
given him through a greater develop
ment of the milking qualities of his
cows. AS matter of fact. that is the
real demand of thousands Of farmers
today, The moment you get away
from the cheese factory or the supply
OF milk to the great city there is at
once a demand for the dual purpose
