More Power For The PeODIo

People opposed 10 institutiona
reforms are prone 10 say that Il
is the character of the people
not the form of government
which in a republic determines
the goo5 or had of our laws.
Those who SO think forget that
popular government is princi-
pie, and the laws the machine
for applying il A good ma
chine will give better results than
a poor one Our government is
based on the voice of the people
expressed by votes. In matter
such as constitutional amend
ments, liquor laws. grants of
franchises and the like, tn votes
are for or against laws: but as a
general rule they are for o.
against lawmakers only. The
most interesting and important
tendency today is that toward re-
forms in the direction Of permit
ting the people 10 vote directly
for laws as well as for lawmak
ers. The new constitution OF
Oklahoma puts absolute control
of legislation in the hands OF the
voters. whenever they seek TO
assume it. South Dakota has
had the same system for a mum
Der Of years. Direct legis lation
has been adopted Oregon and
Nevada. and the principe has
been carr I'D by popular vote in
Delaware. Nevada and Montana
The legislature of Ohio has
passed an act to submit a direct
Legislation amendment 10 the
people This rising tide OF opin-
ion in favor of direct legislation
through the initiative and referen-
dun proves that the people gen.
orally are not of the opinion that
the mechanics Of legislation are
un-important. Representative
government has been found
weak 1t has failed TO protect
the peopl e against corporate ag-
gresslon. 1t wastes the energy

Pe Had Beeo Fishing on Patoka
Ana Had Come sack Loaded Down. Nor
Much IT, His Wife's Surprise

Mr.. Stewart had come home very late af-
fer dav ana good part of 4 night on the
river. lie awoke very late the next day
and had a lunpy feeling bout his head and
qn mdstinct recollection Of the manner in
which he got home
Wonder if my wife is onto me, was his
first thought, and it was the feeling that he
must keep up appearances before his family
that induced him to shake off the dispOsi-
ton to emain bed
The countenance with which wife greeted
HIM was not re-a sSurlng.
| congratulate you on the unusually good
luck YOU had on your fishing excursion, We're
her first words.
Mr.. Stewart was not sure whether she
meant TO be sarcastic or not and he had
not tie slightest idea whether he had
brought home any fish, but on the chance
that he might have done so he answered:
Yes: luck was pretty fair.
Fairi Why Mr.. Stewart did YOU count
the number Of your fish?
No. said Mr.. Stewart weakly | didn't,
did you?
did. There were just 1876 of them.
Mr.. Stewa is eyes stuck out. Could it be
possible? Yet it would not do for him to
sh W surprise. Still there was some elatit n
in his voice when he said:
Beauties, aren't they?
Oh. yes, they're pretty enough, said Mrs
Stewart. But why did you 90 to bed with
out taking your fish out Of your pockets?
Out of my pocketsl echoed Mr.. Stewart
in amaZement.
Yes, sad Mrs. Stewart sternly. Is it pos
sible you don't know what YOU did bring
home? Look here,
And, taking him into the kitchen, size
showed him pan heaped full Of dead min
nOWS
Where did those come from? gasped Mr..
Stewart as he looked at them.
found them, replied Mrs. Stewart, in
the pockets OF the clothes YOU wore yester-
day. Every pocket was stuffed full. | sup
lose they are your catch. Shall have
them rr cd for your breakfast?
LIS trick Of those confounded boys!
was the only explanation Mr. Stewart
could give, as he seized his hat and fed
from the house.

JASPER, INDIANA, FRIDAY, MAY 81, 1907.

Delaware has no such institution rs .
penltentlary. Therefore every felon SEN
fenced 10 term in prison is sent to jail.
Where ne IS confined year in and year out,
dong nothing other than few chores, to-
ward paying his way. There are now two
.,onylcts in the New Castle jail under SEN
tence Of death for murder. Unless they
should prove to be remarkable specimens Of
longevity, however, they are not likely to
be hanged. The sentence of the court in
o'e case IS that the guilty man shall re-
nam confined until the expiration of fifty
years from the day Of his sentence and then
that he shall expire on the scaffold pro-
vlded, OF course that he is living at the end
OF that time. In the other case, the SEN
tence IS the same, except that the period is

IOmbs of The Apostles.
Where Ashes Of The Distingui>hed Twelve
Are Believed To BE Buried.

All that now remains of the apostles Of
Christ, says the Hartford Times, are in the
following places: Seven are sleeping the
sleep Of the just in Rome, viz, St. Philip,
st. Peter, ST. James the Lesser, St. Jude.
St. Bartholomew, St. Matthias and st. 81
mon The remains of three lie in the king
dom of Naples: ST. Matthew at Salerno,
st. Andrew at Amaf and st. Thomas at
Ortona. One, ST. James, the Greater was
buried in Spain at st. Jago Dc Compostella,
Of the the exact whereabouts of the re-
mains of st. John the Evangelist there is
much dispute
st. Mark and st. Luke are buried inItaly;
the former at Venice and the latter at Pad
ua. St Pauls remains are also believed to
be buried in Italy st. Peter is buried in
tome in the church that bears his name,
so too, are St. Simon and St. Jude. st.
James the Lesser is buried in the church of
the Holy Apostles. ST. Bartholomew in
the church on that island in the Tiber that
bears his name. The Legends of the
Apostles" place the remains of st. Matthias
under the altar of the renowned Basillca.

The Test That Failed

Fair Alma sang high in the choir while
Roy sat in the pew below. Her clear voice
thrilled with sacred fire; he listened with
his heart aglow.
Roy had not told his love as yet, though
Alma knew it the time, until at last he
had to let its stream flow out in gushing
rhyme. The Clden golden tale he told and
of her charms he wrote with ease: her
voice with Melba's he enrolled, and ended
with lines like these:
Il love YOU for your voices powers:
know it for the simple fact is
That | could sit for hours and hours
And listen while you practice.
And she believe each word he wrote and
sang a rapture song of JOY; then sent a it
tie loving note that to her arms soon brought
her Roy. She sang to him-Oh how she
sang.--I really cannot tell YOU how; and then
she said without pang, For just an hour
III practice now"
She did: she took him at his word. Her
voice scared high and sank to low; Roy
really trembled while he heard ten pages of
sofeggio. His head was dazed, and his
heart was crazed; but yet he knew just
what to say. her wonderous execution
praised and kissed her when he went away.
Alas he could not stand the test. For
him her voices charms are DER; instead of
church he seeks a rest, and to her h e he
goes no more.
Young man, be careful what you write
when rhyme too loose your fancy frees; be
satisfied when meals delight. nor solve the
kitchen mysteries Young woman never
risk the test to take lover at his word
when what he vows you know best is unde-
niably absurd. George Birdseye.
