We are fronted now with condi-
tions in this republic which few men
could have foreseen and which no
man ten years ago would have had
the temerity to predict. Out Of the
camps Of the enemy, out of the
breasts Of the scornful. out Of the
Pretorian Guard Of privilege and
monopoly, there has come an unex-
pected and potential convert OF the
creeds and theories Of Democracy.
And whether we find the schoolmas-
ter who has taught him in the elo-
quent and irresistible evangels OF
Bryan, in the thunder which has
doomed persistently from the eight
great guns OF the indomitable
Hearst, or whether chat providence
which shapes the destinies OF Ma
tions and of man has dropped the
scales from his partisan eyes, the
fact remains that Theodore Roosevelt
has learned his Democratic lesson
well. BE-

last Wednesday night. His crime was in
excusable and brutal He followed the
young girl as she was making her way at
night across lots to her home. He struck
her fierce blow in the face, knocking her
down, and but for her shrieks, which
brought several men to her rescue, he would
undoubtedly have inflicted other and more
serious injuries When caught, oyerpoweled
and taken 70 Jail the negro confessed his
guilt, and in court, two days after his crime
had been committed, he was sentenced to
twelve years in State prison and to pay a
fine Of So, coo. This is swift justice; but
it is justice. The only question about it is,
would the william have thus been railroaded
to prison had he been a white man? Yet,
white or black, this is exactly the way such
criminals should be treated. They should
be given given fair trials, as quickly as pos
sibIe, and sent to State prison as soon as
the law will permit. The deterrent effects
Of punishment are greatly decreased by long
