The recent disclosure of conditions
at the st. Anthony school has caus-
ed sensation throughout the state
that would curdle the blood In the
vel of a highwayman 1t is to be
hoped that the investigations prom
ised may be so thorough that it will
leave no stone unturned to bring to
justice all those connected with these
deeds. The treatment melted out
to the unfortunate inmates at the
hands of the men in charge are
such that We're these inhuman fiends
caught treating animals In this way
they would be sent to prison. What
then should be the penalty to these
brutes, In the form of human beings
when they will inflict such cruel
punishment on unfortunate children.
mere babes. These institutions are
not built and maintained for the pun
ishing of children, but to take them
from unwholesome environments to
a place where they can be watched
and taught to become useful and en-
l,ghtened citizens. We are fast
leaving. the capital punishment stage
in our state and federal prisons, and
It is to be hoped we have forever
left the stage where children are
flogged with such instruments of tor

intendent OF the st. Anthony school
is not fit person to have charge

is ROOSEVELT RiGHT9

Rocsevelt's new party marks the
elimination of the country's unrest.
The new party call says that the
old parties are in the hands OF
crooked political bosses" and of
"the privileged classes. There
fore a National Progressive Move
ment on non-sectional lines is i'm
peratively needed. The call adds
that the new party will support leg
islation to favor honest business.
promote prosperity and secure "a
bet er and more equitable diffusion
of prosperity
The business men of this country
as general thing are honest. II
there are exceptions, they apply to
every one else. The jails, the poor
houses, the insane asylums are not
filled with business men. 1t Is not
the offspring of business men that
| ill our orphan asylums. The Amer
lean business man is as square, hon
est and just as any business man OF
any part of the world.
A new party must have some rea-
s fer its birth. Ii there is no
better reason for Colonel Roose-
welt s new party than that SO indie
inably and loosely stated In the call
for his national convention, then
the party Is still born. 1t will join
the list of free silver, the grang-
err, the populist and the rag mon
sy' parties. 1t will suffer the fate
of the so-called Liberal party, In
he movement which put Greeley for
ward as Its candidate and subjected
aim to such ignominious defeat that
ne died of grief and humiliation.
Colonel Roosevelt was President OF
the United States for seven years.
No other president in our day had
such complete control of the execu-
i've power as he enjoyed for nearly
two presidential terms. He had the
confidence and support of the Amer
can people. They believed in him.
they trusted in him. They listened
to him. He had Congress fully in
sympathy with him and with his pur-
poses Thus for seven years he
was the controlling influence in the
government Of the United States.
We submit one simple question to
Coonel Roosevelt and to the Amer
lean people. That is this: If in
seven years, with Congress in SYM
pathy with him and with the people
thoro Ighly devoted to him, Colonel
Roosevelt could not secure the legis-
lation which his new party's call so
specifically outlines, how long would
it take him to complete the task II
he We're re elected?
Would 1t take one term, two terms
or all his life ?-Leslie's Weekly

From every corner of the state
comes a p otest against the primary

has failed to bring about the desir-
ed results and some of Its present
provisions are absolutely wrong both
in Theory and practice The prim-
airy ell action just passed shows up
some Of the worst features. First it
Is as I'd that voters of one party
should te allowed to name candi
dates In another party, and this fea
ture is also guar led against by most
states having primary election.
The y-tr should declare his party
at i iation at the time of register
Ing and should be given ticket
with ca dates of his party affilia-
tion at the primary election. That
1t is not poor mans game has also
been demons rated, that the man
with opp on who did not spend
good y wad so found himself de-
ated man. That it expresses the
wishes of the voters Is also ques-
ton beyond doubt.

The machine bounded ahead. but struck
a part of the road that had just been
