The Whipping Post.
(Baltimore American \

To certain class Of criminals. such
as wife-beaters, abusers of children and
wilful torturers, the lash seems the
only appropriate form of punishment
as such criminals are to be hardened to
be affected morally by it and the pain
endured acts benefcially in making
them wary of repeating their offenses
and so protect their victims. But when
the lash is used for ordinary and petty
oftenses, as it is in Delaware. and on
boys and men capable of suffering tor
lures from its degradation, and who
might be easily reformed by other
means, it is simply a relic of barbarism
and unworthy our enlightened legisla-
uon. Delaware is only disgracing her
self as well as her prisoners in keeping
such brutal form of punishment in her
penal system. Only in the extreme
cases cited, where brutality fears brute
force only, can its use be justified.

The President at ProvincetOwn.
Philadelphia Press. }


President Roosevelt at Provincetown
yesterday faced the first serious criti-
cism of his Administration.
The flowing tide has been with him
hitherto. Prosperity filled the land.
Prices were rising. Every man was
busy and every corporation was expand
ing.
A change has come. 1t does not affect
the general prosperity of the commun-
lty' but the owners of the corporate
wealth of the community undoubtedly
feel a reduction of fully one-fourth in
the average quotation for their shares.
Whether justly or not. this decrease in
value is widely connected with Presi-
dent Roosevelt's policies.
The President meets this adverse crit
iclsm with the same high courage and
vigorous assertion which marked his Mt
terances when the tide was with him
and all men were applauding. He de-
mes, and with justice and accuracy, that
the current depression is due to anv act
OF his Administration. He is right. The
-
world has reached the end of ten wears
OF expansion. All lands share the reac-
ton alike.
But If any immediate and current de-
preston in certain shares on Wall Street
Is associated with prosecutions of rebate
offenders, President Roosevelt will have
behind him the mighty majority of the
American people in his declaration that
nevertheless the laws shall be enforced
The public temper will respond to this
IN fashion which will end all question
as to public support of President Roose-
velt's policy.
AS President Roosevelt points out.
this involves no vindictive vendetta. No
prosecutions will be brought for the
sake of bringing them. No attempt will
he made to rake up offenses in the past.
Corporations which accept the law will
be protected by the law Capital has no
safety save in the law. If it is ever en-
dangered in this land it will not be be-

ment, but because they are evaded bv
INSCRIPTIONS men. The prompt advance
OF shares yesterday shows the general
conviction that the observance of law is
the truest conservatism.
The laws must be enforced. Favor
ltlsm has existed. Men in fiduciary posi-
tons have manipulated combinations of
capital to their personal profit. I'm
scrupulous wealth has proved more
powerful than scrupulous justice. Cap
tive good has too often attended captain
Ill. Organized capital has from time to
time overshadowed one operation and
another of government, State and Fed
eral, executive, legislative and judicial.
This must end. Discrimination must
cease. Evasions of the law must be
suppressed. Equality for the many in

nation for the few.
When President Roosevelt demands

Down In Georgia.
Nashville American

'Hell's broke loose in Georgia" So
the whiskey folks think, and a great
wall goes up about the immense loss of
property because of prohibition.
Why should there be such a great loss
and total loss. Is not the property
adapted to other uses? To be sure the
great warehouses the government re-
quires for the purpose of collecting the
tax on whiskey can hardly be used for
Hour mills, but they certainly can be
turned into something.
Suppose the internal revenue laws
had been amended so as to omit the tax
on whiskey; there would then have been
no use for bonded warehouses. Yet, we
take it. the whiskey folks would have
been glad enough of the repeal of the
tax to be willing to tear down the ware
houses.
After all, are there many legal dis
tillers in Georgia? We confess never
to have heard of one. If one should call
for something over bar in Georgia the
chances are they would hand out Jack
Daniels or Cascade. AS for the saloons
they seldom belong to the keepers.
Some sanity sinner who prays in public
usually owns these houses. Let him
turn them into shoe shops.
The whiskey men should not sauirm.
Let them take their medicine. It's the
same dose they have induced MANY a
poor, weak brother to swallow and
many more miserable sisters to suffer
because of it. Let them console them
selves and read ''Ten Nights in a Bar
Room" or go to see the play, and they
will learn the other side of it, and how
countless millions have mourned IL the

Child Labor and Child IdIeness.
Omaha Beef

Enthusiastic advocates of anti-child
labor Legislation may find food for much
thought in the published results of GER
tain investigations made by Speed
Mosby, pardon attorney of Missouri, as
to the causes of crime among the youth
of the land. In an article in the North
American Review Mr.. Mosby contends
that most criminals are such because
they have never learned to earn living
and he offers the suggestion that there
IS danger of carrying the prevention of
child labor to harmful extent. "Be-
fore making it impossible" says Mr..
Mosby, ''for the youth to acquire prac-
tical as well as theoretical knowledge
of gainful pursuits we should reckon
the latent dangers that Turk within the
possibilities of a generation brought I'D
without effective knowledge of useful
work"
Mr.. Mosby's conclusions are based
upon statistics secured from the penal
and reformatory institutions of the
country. He shows that of So, 1914 con-
victs in the penitentiaries of of the
country in 1890, 81, 426 were ignorant of
any trade. In one institution, where
3, l54 boys were confined, not one had
any knowledge of any trade. In the
largest penitentiary in the country, con-
tanning 1000 convicts, more than 65 per |
cent of the prisoners are without ac-
Iuaintance with any means of living
except crime. The general rule holds.
says Mr.. Mosby, that criminals are not
made out of working boys and girls, but
out of those who are idle and whose en-
ergy finds vent in mischief, which leads
10 crime.

the PANIC MAKER.

For the past ten years this country
has been afflicted with would-be panic
makers They have been eager to dis
credit the policies of the Republican
party, and have believed that nothing
would more surely contribute to that
end than a severe financial panic and
consequent hard times. These panic
makers are calamity howlers in the
embryo. They are the fellows who fat
ten politically on calamity and who
grow lean when prosperity smiles upon
the land. 1t is their special delight to
predict coming evil in the business
world and to pretend that they feel
great solicitude for the public welfare.
But behind the veil of philanthropy they
wear is hidden sinister desire for the
appearance of the calamities that they
pretend to be trying to avert.
The panic makers began their work
with an assault upon the gold standard
policy, predicting that it would so re-
duce the circulating medium of the
country and make money so scarce that
values would be destroyed.
Then the prophets of evil turned them
selves loose on the protective tariff.
They declared it would destroy our for
eign trade, and in a brief while blight
domestic trade. But all the while both
our export and import trade have been
growing larger, and the domestic trade
has become so great that transportation
companies have been unable to success
fully handle it.
When prosperity came in almost
boundless measure to the people of the
United States the panic makers claimed
that it was delusion. Now that it has
remained continuously for ten years.
they are consoling themselves that it
cannot continue much longer. The
threatened strikes in the industrial
world and the effort of the standard
oil trust and other corrupt corporations
to create a panic are received with de-
light by the panic makers and calamity
howlers.
Perhaps this generation may see
another panic, but we don't believe it
Will There may possibly be depressions
IN trade and furries in the money mark
cts. We are not likely, however, to see
any more such hard times as prevailed
IN this country during Cleveland's last
administration. If we do have a panic.
1t will be the creation of selfish politi
clans and vicious capitalists; and it will
not come unless there be violent. radi-
cal changes in our governmental poll

extending from Patagonia to Greenland.
All migratory birds have not the same

distances. The best known of all the
birds of passages, the swallow has one

1t is well for the Republicans of the dis
trict to make contest in each county.
The new constitution and legislative re-
apportionment bill were framed with a
view of giving the Republicans as little
representation as possible in the Legis-
lature. The Southwestern portion of
the State and the western counties of
the Fifth District are the only sections
where the Republicans were left a fight
ing chance. Unexpectedly they have
Deen gaming strength in these two sec
lions, even under the operations of the
new constitution. They should use
every available, proper means to have
these conditions become even better:
We invoke the earnest support of every
Republican in the Ninth District for the
candidates that have been selected in
their respective counties. A strong eff
fort will he made by the Democrats to
reduce the Republican representation
from the district in the next General
Assembly. They feel that if they can

Ninth that they will have no strong op-
position in the State for many ears to
