trial that the Judge on the BEECH gave
the defendant the benefit of technic II

were new evidence in the case to show
the defendants innocence it ought -
have been presented in the orderly
way-as such cases are usually pre-
sented-and not with the blare o.:

The Incorr,gbies

Occasionally the prisons have al
most as much trouble with a certain
class of their inmates as does the wori
with members of the same class still
al large. An instance of this chara'
ter is reported from the state reform
atory of Indiana, where youth under
going sentence for highway robbery
has become SO unruly that the officials
are endeavoring to have him pardon
ed in order that they may get rid D.:
him. Not only is he a menace in him
self, they say, but his influence over
the other prisoners has been such as
to cause general trouble and unrest in
the institution
Every boy mho has attended the
public schools is acquainted with the
kind Of youth that now worries the
Indiana reformatory. By sheer force
of unbending will he imposes his own
wishes upon his fellows, whether they
desire it or not. Generally devoid u
the attributes that go to the making
of popular hero, he achieves by per-
sistency the end which the possession
of nobler qualities would never serve
to accomplish. No means are to W.
worthy for his employment. He brow
beats and DULLES, when such methods
promise success, but will truckle or
feign retreat with equal readiness, il
the situation calls for that form OF
strategy.
Usually, the world, with a sort 81
weak amiability, gives these chap
what they ask for. By many they are
looked upon with a measure Of CON
tempt, not altogether unmingled with
envy Not infrequently they are point
ed to with pride as successful mel
worthy to be initiated. Occasionally
, they are the lions Of humanity, cons
. cious of a great destiny and countint
all that stands between as merely OBJ.
stacles to be set aside. When tn
prompting instincts have their source
in worthy ideals, the result is a phiI.
snthopist world mover, even a mar
tyr. Below these, however, is tn:
ia kal class that knows only its ow ]
appetites, which must be fed on tn
kill of others. Such prosper at the
expense of their betters, the degree OF
mental acumen possessed being tn
only saving power that keeps them
within the letter of the law.
Self-reliance is an excellent quality,
and without it a man can neither do
much good for himself noE help others

Though the house bill to repeal toll exemption for American ships is rest ing in the committee on interoceanic canals, there were many informal con- ferenceS during the day relating, to the issue, and among the developments was a visit of Secretary of State Bry- an at the capitol in the interest of the administration policy.
 No Compromise Will Be Considered.
 No compromise" was the slogan of the administration leaders in their conferences. So many bills and reso- lutions have been introduced. tending to cloud the plain issue of repeal, that il has been determined to make It plain from the outset that no tempor- izing is to be countenanced.
 President Wilson told 1nquirers that he expected no factional delay or tili- bustering and had every reason to be- lieve from what senators told him that there would be a prompt report from the committee on interoceanic canals.
 No Proposal for Caucus.
