LETTING a THIEF GO.
Yes. judge. i took the coal am
guilty" said Fred Watson OF Des
Moines to Judge Stewart OF the police
court I'm that city.
The thief!
But wait.
Il took the coal. judge. 1 had to;
that's all. l would have stolen from
you or any one else" continued the
prisoner.
Standing shamefaced In court. Wat.
son pleaded guilty to stealing coal
from a neighbor. His story was a
pitiful one.
IL simply had to have COAL" said
Watson Il have been sick all winter
and have been up only three days
from the slckbed. My doctors bill had
run way up. and no one would trust
me for any coal TO keep my house
warm. l appealed to the Humane so
cieIy. and 1t put me or"
Judge Stewart questioned Watson
closely and believed his story.
The judge refused to prosecute Wat
son and said:
IF man willfully steals It Is diff
ferent, but when a man In your cir
cumstances. with a family or his
hands. Is driven to 1t charitable
world should show clemency. I'll dis
miss your case"
o just judge!
If you had simply looked into your
calf or buckram bound lawbooks you
would have pronounced Fred Watson
guilty OF petty larceny and sent him
TO prison.
But there's a higher law.
You didn't look into the musty
books. You looked into your own
good heart and found a law which
says, Blessed are the mercIful, for
they shall obtain mercy"
But somebody says:
Stealing Is stealing, and no court
has the right to let a guilty man or
In that way. The trouble with this
country today is the failure Of the
courts to enforce the law"
Well, 1t may be.
And yet 1t should be stated there Is
almost as much danger In this country
In the wrongful OvER-enforcement OF
the law as in the wrongful UNDER
enforcement OF It
That is to say
The disposition OF the courts to send
the poor man who steals a loaf OF
bread to feed his starving family to
prison. while through technicalities
and trickery the man who steals mil
lions goes scot free. That Is a dan
Serous sort OF law enforcement
The quality OF mercy In this case Of
Fred Watson Is not strained.
And the dignity and peace Of the
sovereign state OF Iowa suffer moth
Ing by the failure to send Watson to
the penitentiary and bis family to the
poorhouse-
And the Lord OF mercy win requite
this judge for his bowels of mercy.

SPITE WALLS.


Ever see a spite wall" or "spIte
fence?"
This is how it sometimes comes
about:
The dog belonging to John Jones
persists In loafing over the lawn of
Tom Smith. Jones' next door neichbor.
and digging real holes for imaginary
gophers- Besides, Jones keeps chick.
ems, and Smith has a garden. an un-
1ortuitous concatenation OF circum-
stances
Neighboriy comfy Is strained.
FINALLY Mrs. Smith calls on Mrs.
Jones TO suggest-incidentally to In
Quiring after the health OF the fami-
y-that the dog be tied and would
they kindly fx It so the chickens
would not care to wander from their
own fresides.
Mrs. Jones agrees In perfectly good
taith that the dog Is a trial and the
chickens have an itinerant DISPOSE
uon difficult to restrain. She smiling
~ mentions the fact also that the
smith children are little careless In
their distinction between mine and
thine. Moreover, Mrs. Smith good hui
moredly calls attention to the fact
that Smiths old tomcat Is q disrepu-
table character and given to dissipa
uon, whereupon Mrs. Jones, In per.
rect good humor. also pledges reform.
Time moves on. There is little love
lost between the Smith and Jones fami.
ly, neighbors.
One day Smith is caught In the very
act or wringing the neck Of Jones'
predatory rooster.
When Jones comes home that night
nc protests because of the assassIno-
Ton. whereat Smith volunteers ad.
vice concerning the keeping OF roost-
ers at home. And Jones retorts about
dirty children" Perhaps there Is no
clash OF fists. but
Up goes the high spite fence,
Smith hires a carpenter and navs
the bill for spite. His property is
Injured. and his outlook is ruined. But
he is delighted because Jones suffers
like Inconvenience.
We are not all OF us like Jones and
Smith. but most OF us build spite
walls. not OF boards. but of words and
acts.
We cut or from our company those
men who cannot see as we see or do |
as we do. We snub the woman who |
does not think as we think nor act as |
our set acts
Unsightly spite walls!
Some OF us-the exclusive ones
build our fences so high our neighbors
cannot see us or we them.
Some Of us-less exclusive, but
grouchy-build our wallis Just high
enough TO serve notice on the neigh
bors that we are a little bit better
than they are.
