Superiority to All Law.

There is something servile In the
habit of seeking after a law which we
may obey. We may study laws of
matter at and for our convenience, but
successful life knows no law. II is
an unfortunate discovery certainly,
that Of law which binds us where we
did not know before we were bound,
Live free, child of the mist-and with
respect to knowledge we are all child
rem of the mist The man who takes
the liberty to live is superior to all the
laws, by virtue of his relation to the
lawmaker. That is active duty" says
the Vishnu Purana (which is not for
our bondage that is knowledge which
is for our liberation; all other duty is
good only unto WEAKNESS; all other
knowledge is only the cleverness OF an
artist"-Henry d. Thoreau.

Another Crack at "Fernx,.

1t is a perfectly safe gamble that
when Clarence J. Ferguson puts pen
to paper and gives the product there
of to the press he will disclose his ac-
tual calibre as a man and citizen. Last
week he broke into the Free Press
with a lengthy communication in
which he laid the blame for the de-
feat of county option in the House to
Speaker Cheney and Acting Speaker
j. L. Bacon and the snap methods that
he alleged were used by them. There
was not the slightest ground for a
word of his bitter and insinuating
criticism. County option was beaten
on its dement's, after a free and fair
discussion, with full House present.
No snap methods were employed;
none were necessary; none were de-
sired. The bill laid on the speakers
desk several days at request of its sup
porters and was finally taken up after
ample notice to both sides Clarence
had planned a nice little stage play
that flashed in the pan. He had dis
tributed al arge number of positions
favoring the bill among members with
instructions to spring them at a given
time for the effect that would follow.
1t was such a palpable violation of the
rules and methods of the House that
Speaker Cheney, from the floor ex-
planned that the bill was already be
for the House for action; that petit
ions should have gone to the commit
tee in charge of the bill earlier; and
that the acting speaker, Mr.. Bacon
should simply receive them. This
put a quietus on Clarence's theatrical
attempt at a stampede, and the vote
following told its own story. 1t was
cutting rebuke to Ferguson and his
methods, as well as a defeat for the is
sue and for him to come up now Will
snarl at the House officials disclose'
anew his own littleness 1t is re
markable that he can succeed in rally
ing so many legislators to do his bid
ding.-Randolph Herald and News.
