The State the Real Criminal.

Catholic Temperance Advocate:
Out in Denver, Colo, Oscar Cook and
another man committed a double
murder under the in5uence of alco-
hol which had been sold to these
men in saloon legalized by the
State to do business. Cook had his
trial, was convicted and sentenced
TO death. In passing sentence on the
condemned man Judge Hubert Shat
tuck, with trembling voice and tear
filled eyes, told in these words who
was really to blame for the murder:
Before God the people of this
State are guilty. The people ofSCOl-
orado must one day answer for per-
hitting that to exist which sent you
here. The people must answer for
your crime and for your death"

Worthy OF COmngRndatiOgR,

The Catholic Temperance Advo-
cate: Many countries have curious
legal provisions for the protection
of intoxicated persons wandering at
large. In Holland for instance: "A
regular tariff has been drawn w,
according to which roysterer who
can manage to wal& is escorted
home-within any reasonable dis
tance-for Is cents. Should a port
able chair be required, So cents ex-
ira is charged. In Denmark any per-
son found drunk in the street is
placed in a cab, taken to the police
station, examined by a doctor and
then sent home in cab. The next
day a bill TO rthe doctor and the cab
is sent to the publican who served
the victim with his last drink"

State Taxation Increased.

Homer Guardian Journal: We re-
gret to learn that State taxation is
to be increased back to the consti-
tutional limit from which it was re-
duced by the Blanchard administra-
ton. A great many people fondly
hoped that the tax rate would be re-
duced. But the Hall administration
had an enormous shortage to meet
by the alleged overdrafts of the
Sanders administration and this
could not be done without raising
the rate little, so they say.

A number OF the club members
are taking advantage of the new

gloves and tattoo of the punching
bag is to be heard in the big hall
every day. The membership
books close April 1, and all who
have not entered the club by that

He was game and although 1t took
him almost two years to pay off
his debts, he finally grabbed a lit

he has grabbed off quite a fat

the tolerant air SO fitting to ball

of the redoubtable spud larvae.
The emotions of the storekeeper
as the dirty paws of Reuben bur-

Finally the welded one grabbed
up a long pair of lady's hose and
advanced on the storekeeper with
distended eyes that fairly smoked
in wrath. A. Mott edged closer,
breathless.
"Hey, dadbust yew!" shrieked

hose violently to and fro, "haow in

and the rivers rippled, Mr.. Mott
stood in the country store placidiy

With a startling suddenly, as
