Justice and Sanity.

There has been a great deal said
about the unwritten law, and it Is held
by many thinking people to justify
murder which is indefensible. True,
life may be taken at times in self
protection without violating divine or
human law, but for deliberate homi-
eide there is no excuse whatever. 1t
is, of course, eXasperating almost be-
yond endurance to have the home
despoiled by a constituencies monster
who bears the guise of man, but courts
should deal with him in civilized
community and give him his deserved
punishment. When a man takes the
law into his own hands and puts an
end, with malice aforethought, to one
of his fellow beings, he is simply a
barbarian, no matter what cause he
has for his bloody deed. The young
man who slew the supposed wronger
Of his sister in this city, says the
Boston Budget, received just SEN
tence, though there is sorrow that he
should have thrown away his young
manhood to become a perpetual pris-
oner; but his punishment, though Sc
we're, was deserved, and it will act as
a deterrent on other impulsive young
men Of fiery southern blood, who
might be tempted to follow in his un-
fortunate footsteps. The case of Judge
Loving of Virginia, who was acQuit-
ted by jury of the crime of murder
partially, apparently. on the ground of
sudden insanity, and partly, no doubt,
through a reverence or regard for the
unwritten law, is one in which 1t is
widely believed strict justice was not
meted out. In all probability, the
young man who was shot to death by
an irate father did not commit the
deed of which he was at first suspect
ed, but even If he did, his slayer, it
seems to us, should have paid some
penalty for his offence, and not have
gone entirely unwhipt of Justice. Then
we have the story of mother and son
who confessed that they killed a
young man because he refused to wed
the daughter of one and the sister of
the other, thereby breaking solemn
promise that he had made. This was,
no doubt, maddening, but the provo
cation was no excuse for the homicidal
act or good moral reason for their
acquittal. When brutes walk on two
legs the law of the land, as has been
well said, does not allow us to butcher
them, and the sooner this is realized
by those who claim the unwritten law
as defense the sooner shall We have
a return to sanity in the treatment Of
aSsaSSinS.

No department of government, Ger.

No department of government, GER
tainly none represented in the presi-
dents cabinet, is less open to partizan
political criticism than the department
of agriculture. Sometimes there is a
hubbub about free seeds, for which
congress and not the department is
responsible. Beyond that the com.
plants are few and the blessings are
many. Secretary Wilson says that
during the fiscal year just ended the
department has made discoveries
which will benefit the American peo-
pie to the extent of millions of dollars
"a sum too vast to calculate. Some
of these discoveries are patentable,
and If the patents were held by the
discoverers would make them rich.
But all such patents. after being taken
out in the name of the inventors, are
dedicated to the United States for the
common good.

Groom of Two Months Kills Self.

Golden, Colo.-Becoming despond-

Henry Venable, a well-known Jeffer-

some time between Saturday night
and Monday morning at his cabin
near Evergreen, a lumber camp
eighteen miles southeast of the city.
Venable left Evergreen Saturday
night and not returning to open his
barber shop Monday morning, his wife
instituted search for him, finding
his body in bunk at his mountain
cabin with bullet through the heart.

things finds this is cruel and by no

BALDWIN SURPRISED.
NIore IndIans WorkIng.

Spring on the Pine Ridge Indian res- ervation thls year means great activity among the Indian residents, numbering now about 1000 in all. Much of the sea- sons work is well under way, and crops of corn, oats, and potatoes, in ad- dition to the garden truck, will be rais- ed. While the land is essentially stock raising land not being we'll adapted to farming on account of the dryness, yet more interest is being taken yearly in the matter of farming, and this year will see probably one-third more land under actual cultivation.
 The Indians are giving also intelli- gent attention to the question of stock raising. So far their stock consists chiefly of cattle and horses; but 1t is noticeable that the latter are improving
 much in quality. Instead of the tough
 little Indian ponies. inferior in all oth- CT respects, the Indians are now buying
 a good class of horses.
 Many of the Indians are engaged in the business of freighting from the rall- l road at Gordon to the reservation, and | often as many as thirty or forty teams | may be passed on the road with sup | plies for the agency, and driven by h.
 dian owners. For this class of work l excellent horses are employed.

Solving the Curtain Problem.

A further improvement on the build of the window would be to make use of the clever invention which a lady patented some time ago. The idea came to her after long endurance of the trials caused by perpetual changing and washing of muslin and lace. The shape of her windows necessitated having drawn muslin blinds" fixed to the low CT sashes, but to avoid having to change these every two or three weeks she had a second frame and glass made to fit exactly over the existing lower sash and the drawn curtain was fixed between the two sheets of glass.
 From the appearance of the win dows, seen from either the interior of the room or exterior of the house, it was impossible to detect any difference from the usual order of things, but the saving in the wear and tear of the muslin blinds, the freedom from wor- " and the lessening of the washing bill--for this was a large building with a great number of windows-soon re- paid the cost of the fgments. The cur- | tains might remain unchanged for a | twelve-month at least, and even then could hardly be called solled when talk
