Do Not Always Deter Peo-
pie From Crime.
DREAD OF BEING FOUND OUT
Is the Inner Force Which
Usually Restraints Men
From Deviltry.
MODERN IDEA OF wRoNGDoING

There is notion that the stings,
the scorpion whips" of conscience,
constitute the most frightful and
agonizing punishment which the
human evil-doer can suffer.
This notion is taught almost ex-
clusively in the od-time books on
religion and morality, in the hope
that 1t would deter men and women
from the commission of sins with
threats of future spiritual punish
ment to back it up.
But it is not too much to say
that we have reached a point in
human development when the stings
of conscience and the fear of future
punishment have very little effect
upon the deliberate and intentional
perpetrators of serious crimes. This
is seen in the fact, instances of
which are made manifest every day,
that public officials and private per-
sons in business of various sorts
WHoSc lives are ocSicliy iOh6
courses of crime, but who, until fl
nally they are exposed, live in the
odor of the highest respectability-'
political, social and financial-who
probably never felt twinge of
conscience, but are crushed with
the shame and humiliation of hav-
ing their black lives made public.
Good men, upright and honorable
in their lives, but who either in
self-defense or purely by accident
have taken a human life, have been
made to undergo extreme stings of
regret, while the really bad man
fears nothing but exposure, and un-
til he is called to account, is noted
for his cheerful disposition and his
happy and free-from-care frame of
mind.
1t has come about that conscience
and fear of spiritual misery only
operate on the good, while the Sc
cretly wicked and criminal can
only be made to suffer for their
sins by having them brought to
light, with the result of pouring out
ton which alone they had reason to
dread.
Therefore, punishment for crime
ought to invoke as much publicity
and humiliation as possible, where
as it seems to be the object in the
administration of justice to subject
the criminal to as little exposure
as possible, and if one should hap
pen to get a term of Imprisonment
he is saved as much as possible
from the hardships of prison life
and from the degradation of wear
ing the 'stripes"-the badge of the
criminal.
1t is only the shame and humil-
iation of exposure that make the
real punishment for such criminals,
and if the punishment has been as
free from degrading conditions as
possible, when he receives his par
don he will feel that the worst that
happened to him is the loss of time
spent in prison, and whether he
shall have reformed or not, he de-
termines not to be found out"
again.
The real punishment for such
criminals is complete exposure and
humiliation, and if these are made
as light as possible there is no re-
tribution.-lNew Orleans Picay-
une.

MIR. TAFT's SUPREME COURT

Much opposition was expressed from time to lime over PreSl- dent Taft's selection of Justices of the Supreme Court of the Unit ed States. The people quite gen. orally got the idea that the pres ident was appointing lot of re- dictionaries to the highest judi cial tribunal and the impression prevailed that the court would be something of stickler for the old forms and precedents.
 Nothing could be further from the facts. The present court has made good deal of law in a series of highly important opln- ions. Eugene Wambaugh, of the Harvard law school, in a re- cent publication, reviews the de- velopments in constitutional law achieved by the court in l9lO-1l and shows that it's rulings have with remarkable uniformity up held popular rights.
 MT. Wambaugh cites as amnag the significant decisions those in which the police power of the states is upheld, despite the fla miliar arguments about confis- cation and taking of property "without due process of law. y In the Oklahoma case involving the bank guarantee act, Mr. Jus tice Holmes, voicing the opinion of the court, used this significant language:
 We must be cautious about pressing the broad words of the Fourteenth Amendment to dry ]y logical extreme. Many laws could be shown easily enough to transgress a scholastic interpret alton of one OF another of the great guarantees in the Bill or Rights They more or less lim- it the liberty of the individual, or they diminish property [" a certain extent.
 The court has made the Sher- man law. by a series of intclli- gent decisions, pract lclablc, workable statute for the preNen- lion of halcful monopoly. The court has also set the pace for a revision of the rules of procedure in the Federal courts and has h'- come, in fact, a real agency for the remedy of he abuses against which the people have long been complaining. The supreme court, generally considered a reaction ary body. has actually been reOr- ganized along progressive lines bN President Taft.

AN ABLE AND FEARLESS
 JUDGE.

Photographic dispatches from Fairbanks indicate that a consid- erable number of the people of that section are dissatisfied with the continuation of those trials known as the Barnette cases. It appears to us that those in Fair banks pursuing the matter are acting in a very childish manner. Three judges have passed upon questions of law arising in these cases and in no essential prop Osition of law did they disagree. The attorney general himself says that Judge Lyons conclu- SiOnS of law were sound.
 In view of these facts We can not understand the attitude of the people and press of Fairbanks in continuing tn harp upon acquit- tals which were the result of sound conclusions of law. If our statutes ar" defective, we have congress. and not the court, to blame. During Judge Lyons four years on the bench he has made an enviable name for him. . self in all those attributes which go to make a good .jud!C We dare say that no man has ever occupied the bench in Alaska, or for that matter any other cOun- try, who has succeeded in mora thoroughly winning the confi- dence of both the bar and the people, than Judge Thomas R..
