Man and Honor.


There is an old saying about there
being honor among thieves, but a
notable example of the fact that men
can not sink to such deep degrade
tion as to have no honor left in their
hearts was that of the heroic worh
OF the inthates of the Kansas, pen.
itegtiary during a fire in that fastt-I
tuition recently. The Coal River Re-
publican has a timely editorial as
follows on the subject, one of the
main lessons from which is tho
taking OF criminals and restoring
them to manly life:
Ef6seInsp that spark from onefot-
Mesmotors ighited some Irvine. in the
Kansas state penitentiary, and ina
few minutes the building was
ablaze. The guards had to turn
their attention to the fire, while the
several hundred prisoners, insreau
OF trying to escape. began to assist
in extinguishing the flames, to a
man, and when the fire had been put
out, every prisoner was there in his
place. Many of them had the oppor-
tunity defect at least temporary
escape, with a chance of making it
permanent, but no such attempt was
made.
This action. on the part of the
prisoners was all the more commend
able because the burden of proving
the existence OF "a sense of honor is
entirely on the unfortunate prisoner
in such a case. Under our prevalent
penal codes and customs no effort is
made to re-make fallen man and
kindle anew the fires of amition On
the ash-strewn altar OF a miserable
heart; almost the entire aim seems
to be to ensure his leffectual separa-
tion from the world. Many of the
pen pictures drawn by Victor Huge
hold lessons just as applicable to
present day prison conditions in
some parts of America as to SAs
French conditions of Hugo's time,
No man drops so low in the scale
Of degradation as to lose all sense
of honor, No criminal ever gets SO
far afield in the devious by-ways or
vice that he is forever beyond the
reach OF the thought of mothers
prayer. Whether he believes in the
possibility OF an answer to that
prayer or not. the remembrance of
its benediction comes in some prison
walled dream or suddenly touches
him at time he least had thought.
'As mans man for a. that" The
officer who puts him behind the bars
may be rendering service to the
state, and usually is, but the man
who grasps his hand, looks into his
eye, and speaks the. kindly word that
re-kindles the dream and takes MI

Bnisd Up. Not Tear Down.

In municipal life every avenue, II
the city be patriotic and its citizens
have civic pride, is welcome for the
purpose of building up and expand
ing the c!ty's development. Men ro.
gardless Of their politics join gladly
in such movement as the creation
and promotion of board of trade.
Often when necessary and advisable
men throw party aside and cooperate
with time, talent and money in
movements promoted by the board
of trade or other philosophical or
CARNATIONS. Everything is done to
build up and nothing intentionally
done to tear down.
A striking example is the impend-
ing passage of a tariff bill whose
prime object is not to build up in
dustry but to tear it down, All re-
icall the paralyzed conditions under
Grover Cleveland as president Of the
country and how the election OF
William Mckinley at once reversed
conditions and opened the way to
the United States as the greatest

taken soon arrested the attention Of

Hatfield anti. the strike.

With the single exception of rec
ognition OF the union, Governor Hat
field has exacted from the coal oper-
ators in the Paint Creek and Cabin
Creek districts Of the state every
concession asked for by the striking
miners and he has told the latter
frankly that he has no power to
make the operators recognize Lac
union or to dictate whom they shall
employ. y ~, V 2 Z.
Many Of the strikers are not mem
Befat6Tithe union, and while recog-
milton of the union may be somewhat
paramount with the union miners
there, they can not expect the gov
ernor" to continue to toll
erate a condition so bad as
is pictured there and the people
of the state can not be expected TO
continue bearing the cost Of war
fare" that has already cost the state
hundreds of thousands of dollars.
The miners should realize the fact
that the governor represents the
whole people Of the state and 1t is
his duty to use drastic means to end
the trouble. That he intends to do
so is emphasized by his own utter
ances and the people of the state
will commend him. He has shown
himself the miners true friend anr
they have just right to have faita
in him.
