His Ire Is Aroused b by Story
Of Woman Seeking
a Divorce

Chicago, July q The killing Of
husbands who beat their wives was
advocated by Judge Tuthill in cir
emit court today during a divorce
trial. Indignant at the woman's de-
scription OF the inhuman treatment
to which she has been subjected BY
the man who claimed to be cher hus-
band and aroused by statements
that his abuse had taken place IN
the presence Of men who would not
interfere, Judge Tuthill declared
that IN extreme cases violence should
be met with violence no matter what
the consequences. The court also re-
commended that neighhors should go
to the assistance Of any suffering wife
and assail the woman-beater with any
weapon at hand.

No Good Reason Given
(WateryiIIe Seminal,


1t goes without saying that no
radical change in state affairs and
especially ono involving large expense
should be made without strong reason
being given for it. Before the Lecis-
iature of Maine seriously considers
Changing the capital Of the State. or
even submitting the question Of
changing 1t to the people. some reason
must be given for the change.
Has any been given? We have
heard none that appear valid. 1t is
SAID that the hotel accommodations at
Augusta are Inadequate. There is
some force in that. Augusta has
neither many hotels nor very good
ones. but it Is easier to build O. hotel
or half a dozen hotels than to build a
State House.
1t is also urged that the present
State House is not large enough to
accommodate the growing number of
departments. Perhaps cutting off a
Few OF the useless ones would heIp
solve that problem, and it is not i'm
possible to enlarge the present State
House. The hotel problem will be
solved by the business enterprise of
the Augusta people, the crowded con-
dltion at the capitol can be remedied.
but the Legislature must not hastily
decide that the State government shall
leave the home which 1t has occupied
for many years. abandon the building
endeared by thousand tender
memories and embark on an enormous
expenditure of money, until stronger
reasons for the change have been
given than as yet
As for referring the question to the
people. How is it to be done? There
Is no more reason why the people
should vote as to whether the CAPITAL
should be moved from Augusta TO
Portland. than as to whether It should
be moved from Augusta to Bangor. or
Lewiston. or Waterville. or Rockland.
A referendum should only be had
when there is a public demand for a
referendum. In this case there il
none. There never viii be any. The
people like their old capital with all
its faults. They like the old capitol
building and If they ever want another
they viii build it right on the spot

II is a matter of more than local in
terost i'll Georgia that the Atlanta
News has gone into bankruptcy. That
is the paper which. more than any 9TH
CIR in all the South. has created and
foetered the spirit of race hatred. Its
anti negro scnsationalism was the
cause of the bloody Atlanta race riots
a few months ago and it has had a
standing reward OF 81 900 to any white
man who would give it proof that he
had helped lynch a negro. The re-
ward has never been claimed and the
bankruptcy of the paper indicates that
il would hardly have been paid. The
financial failure of the News gives
gratifying evidence that Georgia does
not want that sort Of a sheet.

The School SAVINGS Banks System

The school savings bank system as
a means of thrift teaching had its
origin in France, having been intro
6uced into the schools of lie Mans by
Monsieur Dulac in 1894. This method
met with some degree Of success, but
was So improved upon by Professor
Laurant that when he offered his I'M
proved system to the Vienna EXPOSE
ton in 1873, the educational representa-
tiyes from different countries unhesi-
tatingly awarded him the prize for
his most simple and comprehensive
method of training youth to habits Of
thrift and economy. Shortly after this
savings banks were introduced into the
schools of France and Belgium under
the patronage of their governments.
So popular did this safeguard against
waste and vice become that ere long
