per cent since the passage Of the
whipping post law, and that, while
the fining and even Imprisonment
of wife beaters for atroclous brutal
ties was formerly matter. of al
most faily occurrence, since the
whipping post law has been in force
it has been necessary to punish
only two men at the past.
The Sichel law is SO drafted that
the penalty of official flashing Is ato
be administered only in the most
deliberate and brutal cases, the fine
or term of Imprisonment serving
as a penalty where the wife beater
can show that he had been impelled
to the crime by extreme aggrava-
ton, or had other partial justifica-
ton. The criminal is further guard
ed from unjust or undue suffering
at the post by the fact that three
different tribunals must pass upon
case before the offender can be
sentenced.
Senator Sichel will go to the COM
ing session at Salem armed with
the written testimonials of police
judges, superior court judges and
district attorney, warmly commend
ing the law, and Governor George
e. Chamberlain, who was recently
quoted as being in favor of the re-
peal, has assured Senator Sichel
that instead of favoring the repeal
he will be one Of the laws most ar
dent defenders.
Senator Sichel, while acting as
police commissioner, witnessed the
abuse of women in the lower walks
of life, many being compelled to
lead a life of shame under the fists
of men who had married them for
the revenue they could bring from
the city's dives, and this determined
him to devise some means of eff
fective protection for these unfor-
tunate women. In the whipping
post law this means has been
found, says Senator Sichel, for the
90 per cent decrease in wife beating
has proved it. In his fight against
the laws repeal Senator Sichel will
have the enthusiastic support of the
women Of the state, as well as a
generous proportion of the men.

economizing on fuel. The members
of the club will camp with some
member until his supply of wood
and coal is consumed, then they
will move to the home of some
other member, and SO on until the
supply of fuel Of the entire club Is
exhausted. When that critical mo-
ment arrives Mr. Horton said the
club members would hold up a
freight train and secure fresh sup
ply of coal.

COLD WAVE NO
TERROR To

Spokanes claim to the most fav-

country is sustained by reports CON-

state and the country east of here.
Pullman. Wash, had a record

Over at Occur dAlene the mer.
curry went down to 10 below. There
is heavy sheet of ice on the lake

river and the river is reported
frozen over to a depth of six inches.
Walla Walla is feeling the cold
wave and is also raising the fuel

about all gone at that city.
