ton OF the writ of injunction in labor
disputes. Samuel Gompers, Presi-

Too Easy With Criminals.

We notice that in the case of the
man giving the name Of Charles Hart,
arrested on the charge OF burglarizing
the railroad stations in Nergennes and
Ferrisburgh. the amount of bail was
fixed at 81 600 In view Of the ex-
IRENE frequency of the crime of burg
larry I'm different parts of Vermont
during the past few years, we feel
constrained to protest against the
comparative leniency with which men
strongly suspected of guilt are treat
ed.
If this man, who it is to be pre-
sumed gave a fictitious name. Is
professional and belongs to a gang
possessed of ample resources, it is safe
to say that a way will be found to Sc
cure bail for the accused, and he may
escape without coming to any trial
whatever. This is contingency
which courts ought TO take into con-
sideration. Bail which would be am
pie under ordinary circumstances is
not sufficiently large in cases inyoly-
! ing burglars or supposed burglars.
| The bail should be large enough so
they will be likely to be held until
! they can be given a trial.
| Vermont has been far too lenient
with criminal visitors of this charac
ter and the sooner we adopt strenu-
Gus measures to rid our common
wealth of the presence Of such tour
lists the safer will we be both as TO

for leniency with criminal visitors
but no portion of it has been acquired
through the disposition of cases
brought before the Bennington muni
cipal court. Some of the sentences
imposed have been criticised by local
attorneys because of their severity
but it would be noticed, provided a
list of the burgaries committed I'm the
state during the past few years were
available that a comparatively small
number of crimes of this nature have
occurred in this vicinity A communi

The humanity idea can be carried
altogether too far in dealing with
criminals. There is always ten
dency to look with eyes Of pity upon
the man who is facing a sentence OF
years in prison, but the experience OF
officials identified with penal institute
ions goes.f to prove that many Grim
inals are chemically vicious and thai
reformations are few. In the maiori

glary or safe-breaking is made It vii

New Light on Pneumonia.
Before the Chicago Medical associa-
ton DR.. 81. M. Fish has submitted a
new method of treating pneumonia,
which he says effects a sure cure inside
twenty-four hours. He asserted that
the seat Of the trouble in pneumonia
cases is not In the lungs, as generally
supposed, but in the bony framework
at the top Of the nose. The germ or
pneumococcus is harmless except when
pent up in a cell of this kind. Then 1t
acts like. an explosive, expands and
poisons the blood. From these cells
the disease works rapidly down to the
lungs, but the fuel still comes from the
germ cells in the nose. So says DR..
Fish. and be adds that the remedy Is
simply to draw the pus from the nose
cells. BY doing so he has cured one of
the worst cases Of pneumonia.
