Revolving BOWbelIs Case.

A revolving story comes from
Bowbells, and is more than like
lv true. Some weeks ago a lit
tly nine year old girl was raped
by a citizen Of that place, but
the mother was instrumental in
getting the trouble hushed up
temporarily. The father, how
ever will not have it so, and the
story got out, The mel yhbors
have notified the father to start
prosecution at once or get out of
the country. Something will be
doing before long.

Honest Wf,iskey.

To some minds there is touch of
the ludicrous in the ruling of the
attorney general and the president in
regard to whisky.
There was Kentuckian once who
repudiated the distinction once be-
tween good whisky and bad whisky
taking the position that all whisky
were better than others On the
other hand, some people hold that
all whisky is bad and one kind is
list as bad as another
To this class of people any frauds
connected with whisky appear harm
less, if, indeed, not advantageous
because MS they view the matter,
.thl4re is never anything put into
whisky that is not less harmful than
the whisky itself.
To thesef people there will appear
to be something ridiculous If, not
undigniffed in the presidents letter
TO the secretary of agriculture de-
falling the precautions that are to be
taken to- prevent drinking people
from being fooled in their whisky.
Neyerthe eless, the president is
simply doing his duty. 1t is his duty

to enforce, through the secretary of
agriculture, the provisions of the
pure food law in regard to whisky
and he can do this until he has put
some construction on the law. 1t
is not within his province to decide
whether all WHISTLES are injurious
or not. The law treats whisky as
goods" and provides that if it is
to be sold it must be sold honestly
and the president must necessarily
decide what is honest whisky and
what is dishonest whisky.
For the last century in this coun-
try the sale of whisky has been al
most entirely fraudulent. Most of it
has been ethyl alcohol, favored and
drugged to taste like whisky. 1t
has received the name of blend"
and the whisky dealers had fondly
hoped that under the pure food law
they would be allowed to continue
this practice. The president has now
disabused their minds of that de-
lusion
Hereafter straight whisky must
be labeled as such. The name of
blend is to be reserved for mix
ture of two or more straight whis-
'iss. If anyone wants TO sell
straight whisky with ethyl alcohol
y it he may do so if he labels OF as
compound" provided the amount
Of straight whisky in it is not 50
iSEt as to make it fraudulent. Then
" Initiation whisky must be labeled
s such.
aerc is every reason why tha
'iif'zy :raf.ic OF the country should
'e r'ada honest The fact that the
raonlc arc the victims of bad habit
II is such, is no reason why they
hould be ;lefrauded in connection
with it. They have right to show
exactly what they are drinking and
paying for, and more particularly
because The liquor traffic affords the
largest profits of any business in tho
world.
Hitherto, the whisky business has
haen largely a fraud and a swindle.
Hereafter it has got to be mostly
honest. Chicago Chronicle.

In the country, and the response
from patriotic American men ant
women everywhere are expected tc
be cordial.
The correspondence that resulted
in tho retention of DR.. Harlan fol
this branch of the work has just been
made public. President Needham's
letter of invitation, after declaring
that htere is sufficient public spirit
iii the capital to provide the funds
necessary for site for the new
buildings of the institutions, pro-
ceeds to touch on the wider impor-
tance of the movement. The letter
says:
But this far more than local
enterprise and thi leads me, on be-
half of our trustees, to make q sug-
gestion which | hope will meet with
your approval: 1t is that you join
with us in bringing to the attention
of patriotic men and women through
out the land the Importance of de-
veloping, at the capital of the ma
ton, great university for graduate
work that will fulfill the cherised de-
sire of George Washington. Will you
not join us in helping to bring
about such an inspiring plan to the
attention of the American people?
In his letter of acceptance, writ
ten after he had turned the matter
over in his mind for a week, DR..
Harlan declared he would undertake
the task with pleasure He arrived
at his decision, he said, all the more
Willingly because the plan of es-
tablisbing a great university at the
national capital is older than the ma
tion itself. The matter was vigor-
iously pressed by James Madison
and Charles Pinckney in the Consti-
tutional Convention of 1887. In a
letter written in 1895, President
Washington urged it upon he atten-
tion of the Commissioners of the
District and in the following year
he advocated it personally in an ear
nest speech to both houses of con-
gross. In the closing years of his
life his private letters abounded in
references to it, and his absorbing
interest in the matter was epitomized
by his reference to it in his last will
and testament.
According to Dr. Harlan's letter,
careful analysis Of all that Wash
ington said and wrote upon the sub
iect indicated that the Father of his
country believed such an institution
would serve three chief functions as
follows:
1. The creation of the spirit Of
unity and the deepening of the sense
Of nationality.
2. The increase of knowledge in
the principles of politics and good
government
8. The promotion of science" in
the interest of "tlle advancement Of
agriculture, commerce and manu-
factures."
In building up this national uni
versity, 1T is not the intention or the
desire to draw down any other. The
university authorities believe that
there is an individual field for an
American university to permit of
graduate work. In other words, it
will be an American clearing house
for knowledge.

GOV. vARDAMAN's ATTITUDE.

Gov. Vardaman's course with re-
spect to the troubles in Kemper
j County has been exactly what those
| who know him expected and what
| all had a right to expect. His re-
] Spouse to the call for troops was
prompt and enough men were sent
there to afford the protection desired
| for both whites and innocent negroes.
| Realizing, however, that the situa-
ton might alter so materially in a
| short time as to present grave diff
| culties that could not he met readily
| from Jackson, he himself went to the
scene Of action. The presence of the
governor of the state is always
powerful influence for law and order,
and we have no doubt in the present
instance it did much to prevent an
,, intensihcation and spread of racial
irritation And if he did not arrive
soon enough to prevent the wanton
murder of the negro Nicholson and
certain others, he arrived with
nize that not only had the negro
Simpson committed a fragrant crime
but that several white men had
equaled his example. It was there
fore right that on his return to Jack
son he should offer rewards for the
capture and conviction of the latter
as well as the former and that is ex-
actely what he did. Affairs like the5
throw great responsibility on
chief executive, and it is not always
the case that they display the en-
erpv that Gov. Vardaman manifested
But it is no more than simple justice
to Nississippi's chief executive to say
that since he took the oath OF office
he has always acted in the same
manner under similar trying circum-
stances. It was not long before the
mistaken impression existing IN GER
tain quarters as to his attitude toward
mob violence was completely dis
sipatd. Where the troops have been
asked he has always sent them
promptly and where it seemed that
his presence would contribute to the
maintenance of order he has never
hesitated to go. It would be inter
esting TO know how the record of I'M
lawful killings during his administra- /
ton compares with that during the I
tenure of his two immediate prede- |
cessors. We are inclined to think he |
