The Time When It Served as Punish
ment For Lawbreakers.

The Time When It Served as Punish
nent For Lawbreakers.
1t is the problem of all ages to make
the punishment fit the crime, but they
seem to have come nearer its solution
in Plantagenet times than they ever
were after the Introduction of hogging.
When burglary meant the total ruin
of the man who kept his whole for
tune in his house the burglar was
hanged. But in the same period pub
lie ridicue served as a punishment for
most crimes, and the man who sold
bad meat was placed in the pillory and
his bad meat burned to windward OF
him; the vintner who sold bad wine
was forced to drink some Of it and the
rest was poured over his head; for
more serious offenses the criminal had
to walk along Cheapside bareheaded,
dressed only in a shirt and carrying a
wax taper, escorted by the mayors
sergeants.
The result was that law and order
were maintained far better than when
men became brutalized by the horrible
fioggings of Georgian times.
Punishments became worse with re-
ligious prosecutions, and after the ref
ormation the pillory. with its terrible
accompaniment of slit ears, whippings.
etc, became popular, to say nothing of
torturing burning at the stake. and so
on. At St Thomas hospital one Of
the sisters, "for a grave offense. con-
trarie to We lave of God and according
to the protfe of three WITNESSES" was
ordered to "be punished and have xii
stripes well laid on"
But all this, bad as it was, was less
demoralizing than the terrible crimi-
nal code of George lis reign, when
there were forty-eight crimes punish
able by death and forty punishable
by whipping, transportation or pill
Tory. Flogging for mere vagrancy be-
gan with Henry VIII, and as late
as 1904 six women were publicly whip
ped at Gloucester for this unavoidable
offense. And never did public morali-
ty sink so low.
In those good old days we logged
our sailormen ito encourage the 9th
ers," and there were many trussed at
the trianges who would now be sim
ply admonished. A pleasant form Of
punishment was "hogglng through the
feet" 1t was given to the Ignorant
sailorman who struck a superior Off
Ger. And when he had been carried
from one ship to another and logged
in each he survived-if he was unfor-
tunate-for six months. The lucky
man died accidentally.-LOndon Chron-
icle.

/ am glad there has been quite
a good deal written in regard tc
the religious belief of our President
elect and / trust more will be
written for | am sure it will result
in good. Now as to Mr.. Roose-
velt's letter, | am surprised at his
arguments, also surprised at you,
Mr.. Editor, for placing it in your
editorial column as expressive of
your opinion. He does not touch
the question. 1t is due | grant
that to vote against man because
he differed with you in regard to
the administration of the sacra-
ments or mode of baptism or any
of the on-essentials would be
very unreasonable, but are they
to be compared to the foundation
on which our religion rests, Jesus
Christ, the Son of God, think
not.
As to his standard of qualitica
ton he sets up. No man will deny
for one minute that Bob Ingersal
did not possess them and would ne
argue that it would have been
right for the Christian voter of
this nation to have elected him to
the presidency. AS to the action
of the Senate, am not surprised
at any thing they have done or
may do, for a majority of them
owe their seat in that body to
brb r..
Who is responsible for a jew
being in the Cabinets Was there
ever one in any former Cabinet!
From my view point the election
of a man to the highest Office in
this nation who does not believe
in the divinity of Jesus Christ is
no small thing. If his contention
is true what naturally followsgThe
Bible that we have been taught to
believe is the word of God and
true is not for it most assuredly
teaches that God promised a Say
vior and quite a nu nber of the
prophets foretold his coming Is
it a fact that all the teachings of
the Old Testament in this matter
are untre! And the story of his
birth in Bethlehem, which we
have learned and loved so long, is
a fable. When John the Baptist
declared him to be the Son Of God
he uttered an untruth. What of
some of the declarations of Jesus
which he made during his ministry
that l will quote, He declared
that he was the Son of God. Il
am the way, the truth and the
life. no man cometh unto the
Father but by me. No man
knoweth the Son but the Father,
neither knoweth any man the
Father save the Son and he to
whomsoever the Son will reveal
Him. He declared that He was
the door and he that entereth NOT
the door but climeth up some
other way the same is thief and
a robher. / am the resurrection
and the life, he that believeth in
me, though he were dead, yet
shall be live. Is it possible all
these things we're uttered by an
imposter. la that beautiful
18th chapter of st. John which
has comfortcd multiplied thou
sands of sorrowing ones in which
he said. LET not yonr hearts be
troubled, yea believe in God be-
lieve also in me. In my Fathers
house are many mansions and / 90
to prepare one for you" Are all
these promises delusion9
1t is also declared in the 4th.
chapter and 10Th. verse of the
Acts. Neither is there salvation
in any other for there is none
other name under heaven given
among men whereby we must be
saved.
