out all right in the end It is a good
thing TO keep the political waters stirring
so they may be purified.
so far as the present situation Is con-
cerned, while il must be admitted II Is
interesting, you must remember there is
no State election in Ohio this year. and
the national convention is a long ways
of.
AS governor. I have nothing az all
10 say about the probable outcome"
What 90 you think of the nomination
yesterday OF Representative Theodore
Burton by the Cleveland Republicans for
mayor2" the governor was asked.
II am Republican. and ! approve OF
the Republicans wishing 70 gain control
OF that city" replied the governor. -As
TO BuTton's chances OF success in his race
against Mayor Tom Johnson. I am not
qualified to say, because do not know.
Il have been IN Cleveland twice this
summer and 1 find there is much senti-
ment in favor OF him, apparently. How
ever. sentiment is not votes. Bryan al
ways stirs up a lot OF sentiment and
looks as though ne was a sure winner,
but until the votes are counted il Is
always d question as TO the outcome"
What the district will do about a sue
cessor 10 Burton in the House. SHOULD he
be elected mayor Sf Cleveland, Is an
other question the governor did not care
TO discuss.
Although Gov. Harris is a Republican,
It will be remembered that Ohio elected
Democratic Gov. Pattison with a plu-
Tality of about 10000 at the last election.
Gov. Harris, a veteran of the civil war,
and popular throughout the State, was
chosen as the ReDublfcaD lieutenant gov
ernOr with a plurality Of about $4,000.
When Gov. Pattison died, and Lieut.
Gov. Harris stepped into his place, the
Ohio State senate which is Democratic,
chose a Democratic president pro tenn.
in order that IN the event OF the death
OF Gov. Harris President Williams would
become governor, again changing the
complexion Of the States politics.
Gov. Harris and his party left last
evening by boat for jamestown They will
start back on Thursday morning arriv-
ing here that evening, and leaving Wash
ington for Columbus on the same day.

The UNwRTTEN LAW.

There seems to be but one sentiment
expressed by the public and the press
of the State in connection with the ac-
quittal of James and Philip Strother
for the killing of William F. Bywaters
at Culpeper, Va. That expression is
one of approval of the verdict rendered
by the jury. Much was said before and
much has been said since about the
great 'unwritten law" which has been
recognized in Virginia from time i'm
memorial as the supreme law in cases
like the one in question. But we have
seen no clearer and more concise state
ment of the meaning and force of the
'unwritten law" than was furnished
by Judge Harrison, the judge who pre-
sided at the Strother trial In his brief
address 20 the jury when discharging
it, the judge said:
Your verdict, too, gentlemen, has
followed the precedent of American
juries generally, so far as they have
come under my observation. Law
books may lay down correct doctrines,
but American juries will not punish a
man who kills another, if that other.
by aggravating and damnable treach-
cry, invades the sanctity of his home
circle and destroys its peace"
This is the "unwritten law" defined
In nutshell. 1t is law which should
be invoked by every honest man whose
home is invaded and desecrated. And it
is law which every honest man should
strive to avoid breaking. In other words.
all honest men should practice what
they preach.

said In reply to a question: win

The merchant did so. and found n
small office and two clerks busy at
work. Presently the sweeper an.
peared, but oh. so altered. He was
dressed neatly and looked a business
man.

Excessive Exercise Harmful.
Cleveland Plain Dealer.)

NOlCNGlduQ Dealer.
In a recent issue of Harper's Weekly
DR.. Woods Hutchinson endeavors to
show that the fad for bodily exercise
and physical culture" is NOWADAYS
being carried to dangerous extremes.
The note of warning is very timely, for
1t is well to call halt on any movement
however good in its inception, that has
approached the border of absurdity.
The recent American frenzy for body
training is reaction from a time when
bodies were almost wholly neglected.
1t has done a good work, but when it
comes to be mania or almost a religion
1t has gone too far.
DIR. Hutchinson decares that profess
sional athletes are short lived, and that
excess in exercise is as disastrous as
any other excess, Exercise should be
regular, he says, and never carried be-
yond the point of fatigue. The wear
and tear of violent and prolonged phys-
ical exertion is quite the opposite of
beneficial. To prolong life there should
be certain amount of mild exercise
each day, preferably in the open air.
To make exercise the chief thing of
life is in many ways a mistake. The
body is given Importance far beyond
what is proper, and the mere overhaul
gence defeats its own end in that it
hastens, rather than delays, death.
Rest is far more important than exer-
ton, and in the plan of life of the ath-
letic devotees of today it is not given
enough attention. Bodily exercise, men
tai exercise and repose are all necessary
for the complete and healthy man, and
none should be given undue prominence
to the detriment of the others.

DEMOCRATIC ECONOMY.

1t may be true as Senator Raynor de
clared that had the Democrats been il
control of the last Congress the coun
try would have been saved millions Of
dollars, but we notice that as rule the
Democratic members took all they
could get for their constituents and hac
an eye to fence building in voting on
appropriations. However, had they
been in control they would have been
under responsibility to the country
which did not exist in the circum-
stances and there is a great deal in
that. Richmond News Leader.
Pretty fair acknowledgment from cur

The Saivtion Army.

The secret of the Salvation Armv's
success may be that it sticks closely to
the people it serves. 1t is not afraid to
take dirty hand and lift it up. Its dis
regard of appearances in trying to help
the unfortunate is nothing short of sub
lime. 1t actually follows the practice
and precept of the Master. Earnest

the Salvation Army. Perhaps, one of

6oston's Work Horse Parade.
New York World

Announcement is made of the fifth
annual work-horse parade in Boston.
which will take place on the coming
May 30. No horse with a locked tail
will be admitted to this show. A new
harness or a new wagon will count for
nothing. but every harness must be
comfortable, well-fitting and not I'M
necessarily heavy. There will be a
sharp eye against Hitting collars and
against throat-latches too tight.
Age is to count in favor of the horse.
where it goes with good condition. Do
Gle and gentle manners will be consid-
cred as showing that an animal has
been kindly treated. The work horse
has done lions share of the worlds
toll, but the lions glory goes usually to
the horse show. 1t is we'll that the Bos-
ton parade changes the order-that it
makes a good horse the thing, regard
less of the rig, and provides a pertinent
thought for the humane driver.
