The Mitchell capital. (Mitchell, Dakota [S.D.]) 1879-1918, 1906-04-27

Thezgreat heart OF the American
people has been touchedRby the suffer
Ing humanity of California. From
one end OF the country to the other
the pursestrings OF the people have
been opened for the relief Of the dis
tressed. Think of it In less than
twodays after the earthquake a fund
Q fsthree million dollars was practice
ally available for the use OF those in
need. From all parts Of the country
came the offer to provide food for
the sufferers, carloads and trainloads
o. foodsw were Immediately got togeth-
er8 and started Tor the Pacific coast.
s@lt is a wonderful lesson Of beneyo-
fence among our people and we do
not believe that in another country
on The globe could be found a people
whose impulse of generosity in dis
tFess will ind so quick and ready a
response TO meet a condition like
that Which exists In California.
Sympathy for the suffering wipes
out all possibility OF distance and
the generosity could be no greater
4 San Francisco and the other towns
wgere right incur midst with their
suffering. The calamity which came
tosthe cities Of The Pacific coast is
something fearful, beyond all thought
Of ever coming to pass. 1t is indeed
calanituus enough to make a nation
n0nrnSi for its suffering..people.

The Chicago, Burlington & Quincy
railroad is among the first to come
under the ban of the courts for dis
eliminating in the matter of rebates.
This road has heen in the habit of
granting rebates and when the evil
dence had accumulated sufficiently
the United States court brought it
to time. The road was convicted
and a fine was imposed Upon it and
two officials were also fined. The
road was required to pay a fine of
$40, 600 and the officials $40, 600. each.
making a total of $50, 900, which was
paid Saturday. That sounds very
refreshing indeed, when it is taken
into consideration the number Of
years which have gone by and the
rebate evil has been allowed to -four
isll to the detriment OF the COM
mercial interests OF the country.
With a conviction5of this character
staring them in the face it will have
the right.effect on the roads which
are now engaged in it, and all classes
of shippers will come somewhere
near getting their just deserts.

1t IS a strange combination in poll
tics that it should require the pres
ence of Congressman G. 81. Burke
at his home town Of Pierre to fight
out his candidacy in a city election.
Those Pierre fellows are a, mighty
cheap bunch of politicians if they
cannot agree on supporting a con-
gresham when he lives 10 their own
town. 1t is much the same way in
Sioux Falls, though, with Senator
Kittredgc, as there is a small cotorie
over there who want 20 hand the
to some other locality,
as they seemingly have no use for a
senator in that town. 1t is some
distinction and honor to have a con.
gressional representative in your
town and il those fellows are not
satisfied with the distinction. why
there are oJher towns that would he
perfectly willing to let the mantle
drop on their shoulders, and they
wonlu take care OF it without scrap
ping over whether they would be
united in their support to retain it.

RlAMES THE WOMAN.

According to a note left by James
L. Coad, who yesterday morning
murdered his former wife and then
killed himself at Warrington, the
cause of the tragedy is placed at the
feet of the mother Of his children He
says, iathe note, that the woman was
going wrong and that he would end
it all. Suppose she did go wrong?
did James L. Coad ever stop to think
that his years Of drunkenness. lewd-
ness and lack of love and care may
have had much to DO with it? Here Is
another point wherein modern $50
cial customs" do the women of our
land a terrible injustice. a man may
wander in the by and forbidden paths
waywardness, but let a woman take
one step from the path Of recttude
and she becomes an outcast- Accord
ing to reports. Coad left his wife
nearly a year ago, leaving her the
care and support Of their three child
rem. Not a word Of evidence has
been shown that she was not a true
wife to him through his years OF dis
sipation. Righteousness and abuse Of
her and the children. He left her
husbandless and thrown upon the
world as helpless woman. She
seems to have fallen into sin We
| would not attempt to palliate her
| misdeeds, but on the other hand, can
| society feel very kindly toward the
man who would return after years
Of debauchery and shoot down in her
own home the woman who gave
birth to his children and who no
doubt had wept many bitter tears
| over his waywardness? Society will
| never reach the highest degree Of
! attainment until it sets as high a
standard for men as it does for Won
en- and becomes unwilling for prom.
! inence to condone deeds in man as
black as the demons Of perdition.
