KANSAS COMMENT
TO PUNISH SPIES

Inc elaborate preparations for war in
Tune OF peace made by all nations,
nave naturally prompted the intelli-
/ gence departments of the various
armies TO secure accurate information
concerning the coast defenses and
Notifications OF countries with which
they may some day be at war. The
AGENTS employed in this delicate SER
vice, Officers, enlisted men or civilians
are In plain English spies. In time of
war such persons, when detected, are
summarily executed In time of peace
they are imprisoned. German spies
nave been caught in France and Eng
iand ana English and French spies
| nave been arrested in Germany, en-
gagged in this questionable business.
OCCASIONALLY the sale of military Sc
crets to foreign governments creates a
scandal that arrests the attention of
the world as in the Dreyfus case. But
as yet the United States has taken no
Cognlzance of suc.l acts in time of
peace.
TIE. discovery that brides had been
onered TO enlisted men in the Philip
pines to procure photographs and
drawings of the new defenses at Cor
regldor, near Manila, and the chance
discovery OF full set of such draw
lngs in India, together with similar
experiences at fortified points on the
Pacif1c coast have moved our military
to legislate on the subject. A bill has
neen favorably reported in the house
this week providing punishment by
fine and Imprisonment for the offense
OF obtaining or trying to communicate
to foreign nations plans, models and
documents concerning national de-
Tense 1t is assumed that there will be
no opposition to the prompt passage Of
SO OBVIOUSLY proper a measure. The
spies caught in flagrante delictu, in
the Philippines, were discharged be-
cause their acts could not be shown
contrary to any law of the United
StateS.-Leavenworth Times.

THE KANSAS TAX LAW.
Some people think the new assess
ment and taxation law in Kansas is
not a very good law. There are OBJ
JectlonS to all laws. The MiSsourianS,
however, think the Kansas law is all
right and they are coming to Kansas to
get their model for a new assessor tent
and taxation law. The system of as
sessment in that state is about as it
used to be in Kansas before the enact
ment of the law now in force. The
Missourians have discovered that their
law is working hardship, not only
on the taxpayers, but on the state at
large. That state is getting credit for
exorbitant taxes. AS a matter of fact,
the taxes in Missouri are not high, but,
under the law of assessment, the taxes
appear to be high. The bad advertise
ment Missouri is getting from alleged
high taxes is hurting the state. It suf-
fered a slump in population during the
past ten years and in Missouri they be-
lieve it was partly due to the fact that
prospective newcomers dodge because
of the high tax rate. They have de-
cided that 1t will be better to follow
the lead of this state and will initiate
the new tax law. This should con-
vince lot of people who have fought
the law that If it is so good that it
is worth initiating, it is a pretty good
law.-Eldorado Republican.

Senator Lodge Of Massachusetts, is OF
the opinion that the election of United
States senators directly by the people
would be a step backward. If it were
not for the fact that Mr. Lodge always
takes himself seriously most people
would probably be convinced that ne
was joking when he delivered himself
Of this opinion. 1t might also be re-

Patch Torn Spinal Cord.

During delicate operation per-
formed in the Mount Vernon hospital,
the spinal cord of Policeman Pasquale
j. Ruffato, of the Mount Vernon de-
partment, who was shot a week ago
while trying to arrest two Italians, was
exposed to view. It was found that
two-thirds of the spinal cord had been
shot away and that only about one
third remained. The envelope contain
ing the cord was thoroughly cleaned
under the direction of DR.. Erdman, of
Manhattan; DIR. George C. Weiss, DR..
Woodruff and DR.. Jasper.
1t was impossible to sew the cord
together owing to the extent of the
laceration, but the envelope in which
it is hidden was stitched and the oper-
ating surgeons believe that nature
may cause regeneration of the splin-
tered spinal cord and that Ruffato
may eventually have some feeling in
his legs. Ruffato has suffered no pain,
and he said that his legs felt abso-
lutely dead, but since the operation
there has been a slight sensation in
the left leg. which gives some encour-
agement to the hopital attendants
