GALLONS TOO GOOD

Editor of Ehe Farmer:
 Sir--These pleadings not to hang woman simply because she is a, woman are pure sentiment, mere dr1vel, un- worthy of intelligent men and women. The penal code is not for men. It is not for women. It is for all. Let him beware who violates the law. What crime can cry louder for punishment that that a woman should conspire to destroy her husband? Mrs Wakefield should go to the gallows The gal1ows are too good for her.

today merely designed to be deterrent. The theory is that to hang one mur- derer will frdghten others who might murder were they not in fear of death.
 In this view of the case, there is no such need of example for women. Few of the gent1er sex resort to crimes of violence, therefore imprisonm ent should be sufficient warning in this case.
 There is not the same need of capf- tai punishment to restrain women as to restrain men.

been named U. s. deputy marshal
stationed in Tampa ny Marshal J
c. Brown, of Lakeland and took
charge of the local office yesterday,
having been sworn in at Jackson
vile the day before. Mr.. Rcnnolds

sraphed his resignation a few days
ago, alleging his reason for giving
up the office to be i'll health, Mr..
Brooks, who continued with Sheriff
W. c. Spencer, stated yesterday that
he had been sick for several weeks.
Another reason why Mr. Brooks did
not want to keep the job is that, he
says, 1t would take him away from
home nearly all the time, and does
not pay salary commensurate with
the work. The deputy marshal in
Tampa must do all the outside work
keep records and dictate letters, as
we'll as make out reports, entailing
about as much work as is the case in
the Jacksonville office, where three
men are employed.
Mr.. Rennolds comes to Tampa

friend Of Marshal Brown when the
latter was an engineer and Mr.. Rem
nolds was a conductor on the Sea

made his home in South Florida for
the last twenty years. Mr.. Rennolds
will be temporarily assisted by G.. p.

HOLD U S BEHIND THE TIMES

Paris, Oct 10 Oscar Strauss.
with his wife and son, sailed for
America today. Mr.. Strauss has
been making study of social con-
ditons in England and he says from
all that he has seen he thinks the
United States Is about twenty five
years behind Great Britain in all
matters pertaining to social justice.
Germany perhaps is more advanced
than England, but Americans must
not look to German speaking coun-
tries for models for social reforms
because German democrats were less
spontaneous than English and Amer
lean ones; therefore, their schemes
for social betterment were not adapt
ed to American uses. Mr.. Straus
adds that he is pleased with the new
Washington administration, believ-
ing it progressive.

formation relative to the time the
board contemplated starting work on
the road to the Hillsborough line
The board explained that of three
routes suggested, the route running
parallel with the railroad and about
fifty feet south of the present road.
was the most practicable and the
board would decide on this route if
one or two obstacles in the matter
of parties granting right of ways
was removed, however there are two
other routes which may be chosen
In case this matter Is not adjusted
amicably.
The board stated, however, that
the matter Of securing the road par
allel with the railroad could no
doubt be arranged and the work OF
grading the new road would prob
ABLY start within the next thirty
days and would then be pushed to
an early completion
The commissioners are going about
the building of roads in systematic
manner and within short time the
road between Lakeland and Barlow
will be completed, which will con-
meet Lakeland, Barlow and Fort
Meade with as fine stretch OF ROAD
as can be found anywhere in the
country. This road is now complet-
ed to within four miles of Lake

Hillsborough road, the work on

TWO OCEANS MEET IN CANAL

Culebra, Canal Zone, Oct. TO- -
The great Gamboa dyke, the last re
naming obstruction separating the
waters of the Atlantic and Pacific
oceans, was blown up. at two
o'clock today. The event was the oc
casion for general celebration all
through the Isthmus. Much digging
and cleaning out remains to be done
in Culebra cut and along the route
but this will be accomplished by
mammoth dredges floating on sur
face of the canal During the period
of construction the costs have stead
lily gone beyond the estimates, be
cause of the increase in the excavat-
ing required. II 1906 the calcula-
tion was the making Of the Culebra
cut would involve the removal of
53,S00,000 yards Of earth. The
final figures are just about double
a round one hundred million yards.
In part this increase was due to q
decision to wide nthe prism from 200
to 800 feet; in larger part the in
crease resulted from the eXaspcrat
ing movement of the soil The canal
will cost-if no new trouble starts
about s400,000,00O. The experts
make the confident prediction that
before it is long in operation it will
yield in tolls a reasonable return in
the way of earnings on the invest
ment.
