Folly of Banquets.
the Kansas City Journal.

From the Kansas City Journal
The Constitution of the United States
prohibits the infection of any punish
ment or penalty whatever without due
process Of law, and it also prohibits any
cruel and unusual punishment even when
guilt has been proved. From both points
of view it might be argued that the Amer
lean system of banqueting public men
should be radically revised downward, in
the interests of the simple life and that
maximum of longevity which is desired
by all normally constructed human be-
ings. even public men. An esteemed con-
temporary. quite independently of the
constitutional aspects of the case here
suggested. argues for public dinners
which shall be digestible rather than dis
tending. and temperate rather than ter
rifying, which will make the honored guest
of the evening grateful rather than merely
inflated, and from which he will lie down
to pleasant dreams rather than to night
mares 1t is much to the credit of human
nature that the instinct of hospitality. as
old as the first stranger and the first well
come, has survived without diminution.
To our guest we give the best we have,
whether it is seventeen-course Taft din
ner or the baked potatoes which Francis
Marion spread before the English officer.

Cemetery at Grave of Syveton.

PARIS. Dec mber - 1909
NM. Leon Daudet, Naugeois Maurice
Pujo, Andre Gaucher and Real del Sarte
to mention only the ringIeaders among
the young ions of the royaIist party who
are seeking to maintain an anti-republi-
can agitation in Paris, we're arrested the
other day at the Montparnasse cemetery
in connection with a demonstration which
they had organized in honor of the late
Gabriel Syveton.
Gabriel Syveton was the nationalist
deputy who, November ; 1901. Willie
The chamber of deputies was discussing
the charges against Gen Andre in con-
nrction with scandals in the army, slapped
the minister of war twice in the face and
was expelled from the house Gen. An
dre's assai.ant was prosecuted but died
on the eve of the day when he was to
appear in his study.
The post-mortem examination resulted
III coroners verdict of death by suf-
location due. as in the case of Emile
Ioia. 10 cdrbonic oxide gas. But the ma :
tionalstS and young royaIiSts soon spread
abroad rumor to the effect that SWEET
had been the victim of foul play and
held the government responsible for his
death. which was described as a nolit-
icll assassination.
Syvetons name is now inscribed on the
list Of martyrs Of the reactionary oppo-
siton in France
IN tho firth anniversary of syycton's
death the royalist groups invited their
members to meet at the MontrarnasSe
cemetery. The demonstration would.
no doubt. have been allowed by the au-
thoriticS I" take place quietly if a
wreath had not borne the inscription,
| TO the memory of Gabriel Syveton,
murdered by order, on the exc of the
trial which frightened the traitor Drey-
fus.
When the procession entered the ceme-
terry. with Leon Daudet at it's head the
ponce commissioner on duty ordered the
roya!!sts to remove the inscri,tion They
refused 10 do The police did 1t for
them.
The procession was thereupon allowed
eedeI hy detachment Of municipal
guards and between rows of policemen
IN accordance with the system inaugu-
rated by the prime minister. NJ BRAND.
some weeks ago in the case of the
Fcrrer demonstrations.
When the royalists had arrived at
their destination NJ. NaugeoS began an
address to the dead follows:
I'VE bring thee The assurance of our
determination to avenge thee, because
thou vast murdered by order from fear
of trial
Exception was taken to this language.
As Nanseois would not desst. he was
arrested.
This raised the excitement to fever
heat. His friends shouted emphatic pro-
tests. Soon they were pounced upon
by the police. who took several into
custody.
The whole procession had to leave the
cemetery. the gate of which was closed
While those who had been ar
rested were conducted To the station
they continued to shout at the top of
their voices Their friends chimed in
BY the time their destination was
reached many as twenty were In
custody, one being Leon Daudet.
