NECESSITY OF CAPITAL
PUNISHMENT.

Writing in Harper's Weekly DR.. Ed
ward G. Spitzka deplores the advo-
cacy of the abolition of the death
penalty on the part of so-called hui
manitarians. "Of thirty-two plots
against the lives of European soy
ereigns since 1894, he writes, TWEEN
ty-five occurred in territories within
which the crime of murder is punish
able by death. But of the twenty-five,
only five resulted in attacks, bombs
were the only weapons used, and none
was successful. Of the other seven
plots, knives and revolvers were used
exclusively, and two succeeded The
conduct of the anarchists resembles
that of flight of crows, sighting the
cadaver of a fellow crow, nailed to
some barn roof as warning to other
depredators."

Some time ago an inmate of the Kan
sas state prison wrote poem which
appealed so strongly to Governor Hoch
that the author was pardOned. Now
one John Carter, who is an involuntary
guest at the Saltwater prison on &C
count of burglary, is trying to convince
the Minnesota state board of pardons
that the poetic thoughts which pulsate
through his throbbing soul should not
be shut from hungry world by the
grim prison walls. He is prepared to
prove not only that he can make poems,
but that he has a market for them,
having letters from a number of maya
zine editors who are anxious to give
him job. To some people wife and
family needing support would be a
stronger argument for pardoning a
man than the fact that he can write
poetry. But these latter are only COM
mon people, without aesthetic tastes.

Did you ever watch circus elephant
waltz or two-step? Did you ever hear
parrot repeat the Lords prayer? If
you haven't, but want some similar
diversion, read the Journal editorials
on the sin committed against the sa-
loon business by recent campaign liter
ature. For exercise of the imagination,
picture to yourself the nerve-racked,
supersensitive editor endeavoring to
convey to the public the impression
that statements making charges direct
" and solely against the saloon business
were thrusts at other and innocent
parties. Picture the high brow, the
downward curved lips, the quivering
lashes, weighted down with great briny
tears, which ever and anon roll down
the sympathetic face and drop with a
dull and depressing splash to the floor.
Picture the heaving breast, the labored
breath, the inarticulate anguish striving
vainly for utterance. Why, oh, why
cannot an obtuse world understand that
a charge against the saloon system is
really reflection on the innocent vic
tins? In attempting the sublime the
Journal makes itself decidedly ride

ONE THING WHICH
HIS EDUCATION LACKED

Some months ago a strong, healthy
young man graduated with the Doctor
of Philosophy's degree from one of the
best-known universities of our country
Some years before he had graduated
with honors from our State University
He had held an important chair in one
of the larger colleges of the state and
from every point of view, strong phys
ically, and with the best mental training
to be had in the country, he stood on
the threshold of what seemed to be a
brilliant and useful career. One month
after graduation, in a canoe with sew
eral friends and within fifteen feet of
shore he was capsized, and having
never been taught to swim, drowned
And in this way was set aside an edu-
cation that cost at least SIS, 900 and
twenty years self-sacrificing effort,
not to mention the work of the cent
uries the man. And all for the lack
of one half hour in swimming pool
half hour that would have been worth
more to him than his entire college
course. Public School Health Bulletin,

The Rhinelander New North notes
that some twenty saloon keepers of
that vicinity, charged with selling liq-
uor to Indians, have entered pleas of
mole contendere and paid fines of one
hundred dollars each. By this plea they
do not admit their guilt, but simply pay
the fine and go on their way rejoicing.
1t is real nice way of dealing with
high class criminals who are perfectly
able to pay their fines, and who are
averse to spending their valuable time
in court or being classed with ordinary
law breakers.

struct the road that water will be
drained off it. With our clay soil, if
water can be prevented from accumu-
lating on or under the travelled track,
roads are bound to be excellent. In
spring roads are bound to be muddy,
and more or less ruts are formed. If
these are allowed to remain, water ac-
cumulates in them, softening the road
bed, and wear of the wheels constantly
deepens the ruts until soon we have
deep, miry. holes.
Right here is where the log drag fur
nishes the stitch in time Run the
drag over the roads early in spring and
the forming ruts are obliterated.
Water runs off instead of Accomplishing

clay road improves with travel instead
of deteriorating.

WHAT WHlsKEY IS:
WHAT WHISKEYIS NOT

The April number of McClure's Mag
azine contains lengthy article by III.
Parker Willis, reviewing the series of
Investigations made by the Roosevelt
and Taft administrations to determine
what liquors are entitled to be branded
as ''whiskey" under the Pure Food
law. The resume of the article is con-
tanned in the following paragraphs:
Though the whiskey controversy may
have been disappointing in it's results to
many of the parties concerned in it, it
has been of immense value to the pub
lie as a process of education. The
question, what is whiskey?' has now
been worked out by the combined eff
forts of two Presidents of the United
States, one Attorney General, a Secre-
tary of the Treasury, Secretary of
Commerce and Labor, a Secretary of
Agriculture, two Commissioners of In
teynal Revenue, a Chief Chemist and
an associate chemist, few solicitors,
and varied assortment of distinguished
politicians, ex-officials, lobbyists, and
counsel. So far as the weight of au-
thority goes, it would now seem pos
sble to answer the question that has
been pending Whiskey appears to be
virtually anything that will serve to in
toxicate. The only limitation placed
upon the liquor is that it shall have
been distilled from grain; but inasmuch
as neutral spirits or alcohol distilled
from grain differs slightly, if at all,
from the same product distilled from
rotten fruit, sugar, molasses, and other
alcohol-producing substances, the origin
of it is not very important.
1.-The controversy has shown that the
real test of whiskey is the degree of
intoxication, or, translated into English
by coming a word, 'impoisonation, !"
that the liquor will produce. While or
binary alcohol is taken as the intoxicat-
ing or impoisoning standard, it may be
that under certain conditions, additional
and more rapidly poisoning elements,
such as fusel oil, the higher alcohols,
sulphuric acid, and various other ingred-
tents may be added. The authorities
have differed as to the desirability of
including these higher poisons in the
product, but they have agreed that the
standard by which all whiskey must be
tested, and to which it must conform,
is the alcoholic standard. 1t has no
qualities that are different from those
of alcohol, save as it may contain ad-
ditional elements of poisonous or toxic
character. With the acceptance Of this
result should disappear the popular idea
that whiskey, as such, possesses Pc
c1liar virtues or merits. The contro-
versy has shown mat the medicinal
whiskeys are not different from the or
binary whiskeys of commerce, and that
their medicinal qualities are entirely
imaginary"

The proportion of illiterate native

continental United States, according to
the last census, was Al. per thousand.
The proportion of illiterate native white
children of foreign parentage was only
88. This certainly shows commend
able appreciation on the part of foreign

schools of the country, and it shows in
a striking way the great work of the
