DISCUSSION on the election of United
States Senator is still on tap, and while
the arguments are confined mainly to che
Democratic side the Republican end is re-
ceiving some attention. The main ques-
ton seems to be whether the members oil
the Legislature will ignore the voice
OF sthe people as expressed at the pri
mary election, or that the legislators haYe
the right to vote for whom they please,
1t will not be well for them to please" to
Ego back" on the vote cast at the primary.
30 far as the Democrats are concerned
they must take care of their own battle,
but the Republicans are bound to vote fol-
former Governor Stokes, and the member
of the Legislature who ignores the choice
of his constituents will find chat he is up
against hard proposition If he presents
himself again for recognition.

That annual farce, the Teachers Insti-
. tute, was held in this county last week,
the teachers were compelled to attend the
meetings and listen to talks that were
probably enjoyed more by the takers
than by the hearers, and hundreds of
children were allowed to roam the streets
when they should have been In school.
The lectures were about on an average.
AS an example it may be well to relate
the ideas expounded by one of the speak.
ers. He declared that composition work
was of no account and said that after
compositions were written they should be
consigned to the waste basket. Then, a
few minutes later, he remarked that the
made to take 1t up again-presumably
from the waste basket-and read it after
ithad grown cold, in order to see its defects.
Further on the speaker said child should
not be allowed to read play until he had
composed one. This, after denouncing
composition. Perhaps in the mind of a
brilliant educator this was the proper sug-
gestion to make, but we wonder If he
stopped to think how very few writers of
good plays there aref Imagine child not
being allowed to read the works of Shaks-
peare-studies prescribed by the State
Department II we are not mistaken-until
he has written play. Possibly the speak
er does not think pupil in the public
schools should read play under any cir
cumstances, or perhaps he was talking
''for what there was In it."

PASSING judgment on two men who
were brought before him. on Tuesday,
Judge Horner gave expression to prin-
ciple that will commend itself to ALL. He
said the idea of sentencing those brought
to the bar Of justice was not SO much to
punish the offender as to protect the
community and the inficting of severe
sentences did not always have to follow
conviction or admission of wrongdoing,
but the man who transgressed has q
right to be considered. sThe occasion for
theseSremarks was bringing to the bar
two men who acknowledged they had done
wrong, but who were before the court fol
the first time. They bore good characters.
One had acted on impulse and had always
been neaceable and law-abiding citizen.
The court could not see where 1t would
do the community any special benefit to
severely punish this man. In the other
case the man had been led astray by strong
drink, and the court felt 1t was no more
than fair to give him chance to redeem
himself. In both of these cases Judge
Horner acted in the proper spirit and 1t ID
to be hoped that this leniency has not been
misplaced, and those who know the men
have no reason to fear any bad results
from the mercy shown by the court.
