Just after the close of the CIVIL war the legislature of Missouri passed a law that any man, having sympa- thized with the south, who attempted to preach the gospel should be con siderad guilty of a crime and sup iected 10 fine and imprisonment A minister of the gospel, convicted uh- der the provisions of that act, LOOK his ease to the supreme court, when declared the act unconstitutional Under the proposed recall of judicial decisions" the act could have been submitted to popular vote; and It majority of the people of Missouri had declared il constitutional 1t would have been constitutional, the supreme court to the contrary notwithstanding But what would have become of our hoasted personal liberty under pro- c.eding of that kind?

Prison Reform

The Republican does not say that Governor Hunt is wrong in his mo- tions Of prison reform. Indeed. it will be d splendid thing if these notions work out as the executive expects them to work out. But it is quite evident that some of the news papers that are rushing to the de- fense of Mir. Hunt and denouncing the punishment Of criminals as d relic Of medeaval tyranny have no adequate conception of the case at issue.
 The trouble with these newspapers is that they rail 10 differentiate be- tween punishment and revenge. It never is the business Of the state to indulge in revenge. It frequently is the business Of the state to admin ister punishment; and that is a wise and just power upon which organized society largely depends.
 Those who deny the right Of the state 10 punish are cited t0 the clause of the constitution which in terdicts "cruel and unusual punish mrnts" Is there any doubt that punishments which are neither cruel nor unusual are rightly within the prerogative of the state?
 When q father applies slipper to his sons anatomy because of some childish wrongdoing. he is not acting from motives of revenge; but he is certainly administering a punishment. If you don't believe it ask the young ster
 And it is not true that the reform atiOn of the lawbreaker is the sole object of punishment administered by the state That is a very large part of the motive. it is true. but il is not all of the motive. One of the motives is the deterring of others from the commission of like acts.
 In this function of the state, as in all others, there is q safe middle ground No sensible man advocates cruel and unusual punishments. Nor does any sensible man advocate q mushy sentimentality that, if it is not an invitation to crime. at least IS closely akin 10 it. .
 IL would be a splendid thing if all men did right for the rights sake But they don't. And until they do il will remain the province and the. duty Of society to inflict such punishments as will best protect the law-abidine from the depredations of the lawless

4 Natural Result

For more than d year there has been insistent denunciation of the courts of this country. Newspapers of a certain class have been filled with a tax on judicial tyranny" The country has been regalej with ignorant and venomous disser- tatlons on the corruption Of judges, the "smirching or the judicial ermine," oppression by the courts" and other like inflammatory matter. To read these fnlminatlOns one would think the judicial machinery of this govern rnent had been turned over to the administration of gang of despots.
 Last Thursday q man named Floyd Allen. a lawbreaker of Allan county, Virginia. was sentenced to the peni- tentiary by one of these "judicia! despots." And the sentence had hard N been pronounced when the judge, the sheriff. and the county prosecutor were shot to death by friends of the defendant.
 Is there or is there not relation between the murderous acts ot these ignorant mountaineers and the ln- flammatory utterances of the no less ignorant men who have engaged m wholesale denunciation of our judIclal system?

 NEW YORK, March 15.-There was another outburst of bullish enthusiasm in the stock market today, which car ried many securities to new high lev els for the present movement. The demonstration of the first hour was uusuany impressive because of the activity displayed. something like 300 ,0OO shares changing hands. The operations embraced d far greater number of issues and showed more genuine demand for all sorts of stocks Extensive profit taking followed the initial rise, with another period of dullness. but offerings must have been well taken, according to the slight i'm pression on values. Copper stocks were especially strOnP. The Gould stocks were the measure of the mark ct. and it was generally accepted that the roads were again becoming fac tor in the west and southwestern field Final dealings reflected a mixture of short selling and profit-taking sales The net results, in the main. favored the bulls, even though some gains were wiped out completely. The total dealings aggregated 2.OO0 shares, the largest for many weeks. During the late hours. tin slumped abruptly
 Bonds were firm. Total sales. par value. were $3,6l1 ,000. Government 2s coupons rose a quarter and Panama 3s coupons fell an eighth on call.

IT happens that Abraham Lincoln is being quoted considerably just now And in this connection il may he well to remember that in the face Of the Dred Scott decision, the most unpopu- lar decision ever handed down by a court in this country. Abraham Lln- coin stood squarely for upholding the constitution and obeying the mandate of the court until the decision should h.. reversed or there should be con gressional legislation to remedy the defects of the then existing law rms is q fact of history.

Insurgents. both democratic and republican, are extremely fond of re- ferring to the regular republican party as ''reactionary:" but the truth is the insurgents are the reactionaries. They seem to think there is some thing new in their schemes, when. as a matter of fact. these schemes were tried out in the sOcialistic democraeies that began with the days of Aristides and ended with the reign of James the Second. of England. All these notions were considered by the fram- CTS of the constitution, and all were rejected. So, it is the judgment of Jefferson, Washington, Madison Franklin. Hamilton and Randolph against the judgment of Debs and I.aFollette and Cummins and Bryan The isms of modern ''progressivism
 were rejected in terms by both Jeffer- son and by Madison, who has been called the father Of the constitution.
 But it seems we have wiser men now in the persons of Bryan and Debs ano I.aFollette. That man has read history 10 little purpose who does not Know that every one of these fads was trle' out long ago and that not a single
