CONCEALED WEAPONS

On Thursday last a Brooklyn
Justice sentenced a man found
carrying a revolver without a
permit to a year in the penitentl-
ary. He also gave warning that
similar sentences will be imposed
for this offenss hereafter. The
Eagle of that city commends the
action of the justice and says;
"The Justices have become con-
WINGED that fines for carrying con-
cealed weapons do nothing to
diminish the practice, 50 they will
try Jail as a deterrent. They hope
to reduce the number of murders
by driving out the weapon which
makes murder easy"
We nave always deprecated the
habit of carrying concealed weap-
CTS. 1t lie in fact cowardly habit,
aside from the rowdYism of it..
What excuse for it is there here in
Virginia. Yet such a hold has
the abominabls habit gotten upon
many people that we believe incar-
eeration is the only punishment
that will extirpate it.
