A DIFFERENCE.

4 DlFFEKENCE. - Speaking OF
Leo Frank, a writer says: 'He has
been tried by jury of IL men and
found guilty." which is true, and
He has been tried by a jury of
100,000,000 people and acquitted"
which is not true, at least it is to be
hoped not.
To demand interference in Franks
case because of belief in his limo
cence is one thing. To demand it be-
cause of knowledge that he did not
get fair trial is quite another. The
difference is as wide and deep as the
Pacific ocean. 1t is the difference
between anarchy and justice under a
form of government guaranteeing all
men equality before the law.
In republic there is hardly more
dangerous thing, especially to men
without wealth and power, than in
terence with jury verdicts that have
been arrived at in fairness and in full
protection of the rights of the &C
cused. The whole fabric of equality
rots when justice, fairly and honestly
secured, is beaten down. On the 9TH
er hand, our whole civilization will rot
when there is no strong popular pro-
test against denial of fair trial.
Not ten thousand of our hundred
millions of people are as competent to
judge of the guilt or innocence of Leo
Frank as is any one member of that
jury. But the whole nation, includ-
ing courts, high, and low, that have
handled the case, knows that Frank
did not have a fair trial The jury

WHEN AN ICEBERG coLLApsEs

(Wido World Magazine.)
One of the main dangers in the
proximity OF an iceberg is its un-
known extent beneath the water. 1t
is told that the passengers of a steam
boat on the Newfoundland coast sue
cessfully importuned the captain to
approach an iceberg for a close in
spection. While still apparently suf-
ficiently distant for safety some move
ment in the water or natural decay
acted upon the berg. and II split
apart. Instantly ii began to readJust
its balance. The tremendous masses
beneath the water steadily rose az the
pieces swung over and one wide
extending ledge came up beneath the
boat. What shall we do now?' in

knees was the terse reply Of the
captain. But the great wave from the
tumbling ice swept down on the
boat ana washed 1t TO safety.

LOUIS BoTHA's WORKS.
lCleveland plaindealerD


The capture of Windhoek, capital
~, German Southwest Africa, practi-
oally completes the work laid out by
the British government for the South
African provincials. Premier Botha
commanded I'm person the attack on
the Germans, and indicated the 10y
atty OF the Beers.
South Africa is not the only self
governing british dominion which has
i sent troops to the European war. The
/ Beers, who form the governing class,
were fifteen years ago at war with
Great Britain. and the home govern
ment did not care TO test their loyalty
By requesting aid In her European
campaigns. She did, however, sug
gest that The subjugation Of Southwest
Africa, Gefmanys most important coli
ony. be attended to by the South Afri-
cans.
The immediate response was re-
bellon Several military commanders
of considerable prominence sought to
accomplish the separation of the col
ony from Great Britain. The rebel
lion was easily put down, and com
paratively few Of the rebels escaped
Ito German territory.
Louis Potha, premier of the nation,
then set about the serious task AS
signed to him. The Beers, whom Ger
many had expected to throw off their
British allegiance at the first possible
opportunity, gladly Joined Botha's
standard. The man who had fought
so valiantly and effectively against
Great Britain fifteen years before pro-
ceeded to prove that hygones are real
~ bygones. and that the Peers are not
ungrateful to the nation which made
amends for an unjust war of conquest
by restoring the liberties which had
been snatched away.
The result has been a sufficient
proof of the wisdom of the course fol-
lowed by the British liberals in deal
ing with South Africa. Had the pol
icy of repression favored by the con-
servatives been followed there can be
no doubt that today South Africa
would he in successful insurreetion
against u power helpless to coerce.
The work OF Botha is simply one
more proof Of the broad wisdom Of
not attempting TO impose an alien
oyerlordship upon an unwilling peo-
pie

THE CooNsKIN LIBRARY.

klhlullnNst W. ijlepdtNlif
In tho autumn OF 1903 there was a
meeting of the settlers i'm Dover, sun
day Greek and Ames, Athens county,
called primarily to consider the max
! ing Of roads, but before 1t ended II
took up a side issue that seen from
! this point Of view, seems to be the
most important part of the meeting.
, What they did about roads was OF
| hut passing interest The other mat
ter produced far reaching results.
! II 10 recorded that Josiah True
called attention to the need OF books.
| Probably most of those present had
enjoyed the ADVANTAGES Of libraries
| back In their New England homes
and their isolation In their new homes
| in the west emphasized the lack Of
them here. He proposed a public IL
brary.
rho idea was warmly Welcomed, but
how could Il be secured without
funds. The colonists were mostly
poor and what they had was not In
| the form Of money. There was but
little money in circulation and busl-
ness was mostly carried on in the
form OF barter. Finally someone sug-
gested that all present engage in
hunting tur-bearing animals during
the approaching winter. and with the
proceeds OF the hunt buy necessary
books
Agents OF John jacob Astor had
visited the settlements promoting that
Industry. and the young men had be-
come skilled in the chase. They en-
tered into the work with enthusiasm
and by spring large store OF skins,
mostly coonskins, had been collected.
Samuel Brown was to make visit TO
Boston, going by wagon, and Il was
arranged that he should take the
store OF skins east with him. stopping
al Astors place IN New York to dis
pose OF them.
Dr Mannasch Cutler went along
with him TO make the selection OF
books. These were bought in Bos-

SENTIMENT IN BUSINESS.

What is called prosperity comes
largely as n result Of men not being
afraid TO spend moncy--nor to go
into debt. II this " carried too far. Il
business boom results. which cor
responds TO "bull' market In
grain or stocks, and means initiation
of values beyond their real worth.
Then comes a reaction. credits are
restricted, business expansion ceases
and money is not available for new
enterprises, because people are afraid
10 venture. Fear Of loss or lack Of
confidence then dominates the busl-
ness world which means depression,
Every one OF these situations Is
clearly the result OF what In the mar
xct is called sentiment" could sem
timent be controlled. there would be
neither business depression nor busl-
ness initiation; neither boom nor
panic. But there can be no equillbra-
tor for business sentiment, only as
business men control both their fears
and their optimism individually.
The present Is a time that loudly
calls for such control, The fundament-
ais that could and should make busi-
ness throughout the country good are
present and should be permitted to
become operative, as they will unless
loss of confidence. hesitation and fear
combine into adverse sentiment
Business Will be largely what busl-
ness sentiment makes II; and the only
way TO control that sentiment Is for
every business man TO control him1
self II every man IN Albuquerque
should follow the rule OF trying to
get the largest amount Of profit from
the smallest amount OF risk, business
will be stagnant and absolutely un-
satisfactory.
