PUNISH THE wIFE-DEsEnrEns.

PUNISH THE WIFE-DESEltTERS.
A number of women with young chill
dren- have recently reported to DR..
Buchanan, of the Associated Charities,
that their respective husbands had de-
serted and left them destitute. One OF
these women. refined and young. had
three little children. the smallest being
an infant only ten days old.
Another was bourding-hou keep
er, and her husband left her with rent
overdue and debt Of 500 on the
furniture.
Another deserted wife had four chill
dren and no means of support.
Still another complained that she had
not seen her husband for several days,
but she knew he was spending all the
money he had in drink, while she and
four children were left without a NOR
sci Of food in the house.
In general terms DR.. Buchanan de-
clares that the cowardly crime OF wife,
desertion is on the increase in this
community. in spite Of the special en-
ac1ment designed to punish delinquent
husbands and fathers. The authorities
should be as active as possible in hunt
ing down these rascals, and whenever
they are caught the law should be en-
forced against them to the full extent.
All suchsmen are 9 disgrace to civiliza-
ton. and Ii they will not meet their

The chief of the Department OF Labor
says that not before in the history OF

of child labor. The new
law has worked wonders, and has.
stamped out child slavery from the
State. There are nine men and two
women inspectors at work constantly
among the $500 factories of the State,
and at the present time there are thirty
casas of factory laws violation in tli-
hands of the Attorney General for
prosecution.
This should be encouraging to those
who are eadeavoring to reform tbs
child labor laws OF Virginia. Our laws
are good, $ far as they go, and seem,
to be enforced. But they do not so far
enough, and the subject must receive

REPUBLICAN, USURPATlON.
Roosevelt Rejects Theory OF the
Peoples Sovereignty.

Roosevelt Rejects Theory OF the
Peoples Sovereignty.
The theory Of our constitution Is that
all federal powers are delegated pow
ers and must originate in grants made
by the people alone, or, in the language
of the tenth amendment Of the consti'
tuition, that "the powers not delegated
to the United States by the constitu
ton nor prohibited by it to the states
are reserved to the states respectively
or to the people," But President Roose
welt rejects this theory and despises
this constitutional provision. In his
speech at the dedication Of the new
capitol at Harrisburg, Pa, Oct. 4 he
said:
1--WE need through executive action,
through legislation and through judi.
cial Interpretation and construction OF
law to increase the power of the fed
eral government"
How can the power Of the federal
government be cOnstitutiOnally In.
creased through executive action, Judi.
cial Interpretation or congressional leg
islation? The only power which the
legislative, executive or judicial de-
partment of this government possesses
through the action Of the people alone.
Roosevelt's declaration Is entirely I'M
constitutional, and his acts in pursu
ance of that declaration are usurpa
lions.

A GRATEFUL CORPORATION.

The Standard Oil Bank Praises the
ALnlinistra zion.
It Is very natural that the National
City Bank Of New York In its October
review of United States securities and
government finance should praise Sec
rotary Shaw and pay high tribute to
the work Of the treasury department.
1t would be ungrateful of the man
ayers of this Rockefeller corporation if
they did not acknowledge the benefits
that the Republican administration has
dealt out to them. They praise the is
sue of $30.OOO,OOO Of Panama bonds, al
though this Republican administration
of the United States treasury had at
that time about $13O,OOO,OO0 Of the
public money on deposit with the
Rockefeller and other favored national
paid. This enabled these favored banks
to buy the Panama bonds with the
money so kindly loaned them by the
treasury and ut once to begin drawing
interest upon the bonds and then de-
post the bonds to increase their cur
rency circulation. which they could
also loan at the going rate of interest.
In fact, most Of the proceeds Of the
bonds, like the government deposits, at
once found their way to the Wall street
banks, drawn thither by the abnormal
ly high interest rates.
Nor does this conclude the benefits
and special advantages vouchsafed to
the national banks for which the
Rockefeller bank magnates extol the
treasury management, for In the last
week of September $26,OOO,OOO more of
the peoples money was loaned to the
banks, and, although allotted to banks
all over the country, most Of 1t. by
reason of the lack Of the necessary Sc
curities, found its way into the Rookie
Teller and other Wall street banks.
This is proved by the statement Of the
New York Associated Banks for Oct. G,
which reported $3O,479.2O0 Of govern
ment money on deposit against $1O,-
100000 shown in the last week Of Au.
gust, a gain of over $2O,OO0,O0O.
Many who read this will no doubt be
surprised that the Roosevelt admins
tration, which boasts Of its anticorpora.
ton record, should thus favor the ma.
tional banks ut the expense Of the peo-
pie, but in addition to all these ia.
vors the treasury lent the Wall street
banks during August and September
35,972, 900 Of gold to facilitate the i'm.
portation Of gold, SO that they would
not lose the interest on that amount
while the gold was In transit, and
100000 to u Boston bank for like
purpose.
All this aid to the Wall street cor
porations and trust manipulators very
naturally brings forth high encomiums
from the Standard OIL bank, and nc
doubt the magnates Of that giant cor.
poration will return these favors by
ample contributions to the Republican
campaign funds to elect Republican
congress-, which proposes to "stand pat
and pass the hat" as Speaker Cannon
80 euphOniOusly expressed 1t.
