A MISPLACED SYMPATHY.

A criminal at Sioux Falls has just
heen given a six-year sentence in the
penitentiary for a robbery that IN
yolyed the sum Of &c cents. OF course
the length Of the sentence will be
played up against the amount taken
with the result that some persons VIII
see another instance of the poor ana
friendless criminal given the mint,
while the influential villain escapes
with little punishment or none at an.
But what was the case at Sioux
Falls? The condemned man walked
into a lonely farm home and at the
muzzle of a gun, under threats to kill,
forced the farmer to give him all the
money he had. 1t was not a case of 20
cents. He wasn't sent to prison for
stealing the price of few postage
stamps or meal. but because the
longer men like him are retired from
circulation the better for society.
Sympathy for the criminal who gets
what is coming to him is too easily
tapped in this country. Because one
guilty man evades a part OF the pun
ishment he has earned is no reason
why we should grow maudlin over the
penalty justly inflicted on another who
deserved all he received The crime OF
the bank wrecker is no excuse or pal
liation for that of the chicken THIEF
IL one does get eighteen months and
the other three years.
The trouble is that the one escapes.
Neither got too much. The bank thief
failed to get his deserts. He should
be sent for the full time, but the other
robber has no claim to sympathy or
lenient treatment.

mourning for Sepo. But two swal-
lows don't make summer. So take
the Indian bootlegger-and there Is
one bad one-take the habitual booZers
and the thieves and murderers and
they will constitute SO small pro-
portion of the tribe that it is mani
testify unfair to charge their misdoings
to the entire tribe. The trouble is just
this: The general government claims
exclusive jurisdiction over these
Indians so the state can't punish the
wrong doer and the general govern
ment has done so little in that line
the Indian agent and farmer are SER
iously handicapped in dealing with
those who do violate the laws.
Pervading the Democrats article is
the idea that the laws are so meagre
and the few we have are so unenforced
that the Indians do not fear punish
ment. This speaks volumes for the
peacableness and self restraint of the
Indian.
What would be the effect In COM
munity of five hundred white men,
anywhere in Iowa, where all kinds or
booze could be obtained and INDUCED
in without fear of punishment? Then
give the same five hundred to UNDER
stand that the social evil, theft, and
even murder would go unpublished
We venture to say that it would not
be long before the Reservation"
would be Saints Rest compared with
It,
We have not looked up the, legal
difficulties in the way but to our
mind, If it can be done, congress
should abdicate it's police control OF
these Indians and confer such control
on the state. This is not q govern
ment reservation. These Indians
bought their lands and chose to re-
main In or come back to Iowa. We
think it was a grave error in the courts
holding them to sustain the same re-
lation to the general government as
those Indians the government placed
on reservations. r. j. M. WONSER.

In order to encourage enlistments in
the army it is proposed to increase the
wages paid and also to relieve the
men of some duties which they are
now compelled ito perform and to
which there has been much objection
made. The question of keeping the

"The only redeeming feature of, a

ger.
The Upton Advertiser says: There
is no question as to whom the people
want: it is Roosevelt and the senti-
ment is by no means confined to the
west, but prevails in every section of
the country. True the professional
politicians have not always been ever
enthusiastic regarding another term of
Roosevelt, but they always place VIC
tory above every other consideration,
and the conviction is growing that the
president will be the strongest and
best possible candidate"

printers have felt all Of our lives

The Radcliffe Signal gives warning
that "the young men whose pockets
are filled with cigaret wrappers, mus
+! tache combs, finger nail cleaners, min

and have their mother crease their
pants every day, are not the ones who
will make promising husbands The
pockets of those who are helping to
make the country bloom ard causing
two blades of grass to grow where
God planted but one, will be found
filled with barb wire staples, and diff
ferent sizes Of nails. They are the boys
the girls had better look after"
Beyond question the denomination
of Roosevelt seems more probable than
| it did a few months ago." declares the
Brooklyn Chronicle. 1--WE still believe
that it would be a political mistake,
but the course of events may make it
in time political necessity. The
friends of Roosevelt seem unable to
agree upon any other candidate whom
they are willing to support, while his
enemies would prefer him to any new
man holding in the main the same po-
| litical opinions"
