The just punishment of crime is
getting to be very conspicuous by
its absence. A mans life is spared
only because of a harmonica inter
cepting the murderous bullet, yet
the assassin got but 90 days and
5000 fine. Another man is found
with stolen goods in his possession
and even confessed that he had
stolen them; yet he is sentenced to
one year in the penitentiary, but is
left out OH rarole. These are two
cases with which the people of st
Johns are familiar, happening with.
in the past week. How many like
cases there are every week in Port

Carrie Nation, of national fame
as a hatchet wielder against the sa-
looms, passed to the other world
last week. Having the courage OF
her convictions, she adopted a pc
culiar method of attempting to de-

otonous. However misguided and
futile her efforts were, she never
theless made unique place in his
