 There are two why the criminal laws of Great Brftai much efficacious than It is not that the British people naturally law abiding than One of the reasons is that the laws much promptly and rigidly enforced than ours and the other that the pardoning power is so seldom exercised that it is almost tradition.
 In this country the criminal only remote possibility of punishment. There is the long delay in bringing him trial and in this interim interest is largely lost in his case; he is given every possible chance of escape during his ral if convicted there is the possibility of a trial then, the appeal and if that fails, there is the pardoning power which if exercised during administration may be exercised by another four years hence. The criminal is constantly bolsered by the hope of freedom and times of his hope has been entertained in vain.

The Pardoninq Power

The evidence before the committee of the legis- ature of Iowa is not it's sufficient to convict the governor of Iowa of having accepted bribe for the pardon of life convict but has been disclosed that there had been such abuse of the pardoning to provoke investigation of this case. So somewhere the governor has been at fault.
 In this case the governor says that he is convinced that the man whom he pardoned is guilty. though at first he believed him to be innocent His assumption of his innocence however, rested recommendation by the trial judge for a pardon and record of the prepared by the attorney who was urging the pardon.
 It is very thing for all who have par ticipated in the trial of to jo.. in a for his pardon-court jury and sometimes prescott ing attorney. This is proper enough when evidence tending to establish the innocence the condemned has been discovered too late to be at the trial but there can be no excuse for it otherwise and the pardonng power is warranted in disregardng all such attempts at interference
 If a judge believes a man be innocent though jury has found him guilty he may grant him new rial that the judges recommendation for a par don should not carry with it great deal of weight
 There is too frequently the exercise of the par donine power in this country too great tendency toward leniency by hearted and soft brained jdg es who regard the laws playthngs Naturally laws which they contemptuousIy fall into contempt by criminals
 Governors should hold themselves above this weakness. The pardonng power was never meant to be abused, meant to be used capricously In fact it meant to be used except where the user has good believe-not to surmise- that injustice has been done. It is be assumed b, 'hA that the condemned ha already been s"f

 The wife won-which was foreordained,
 The man wrote the wife check for 8 in pay ment of the bet-which sad
 The wife cashed the check at the grocery but forgot to indorse it-which was natural The grocer, despite the lack of indorsement paid it to packing house coector-whch was careless
 The packing house collector turned it in-which was all in a days work
 The packing house office discovered the lack Of indorsement-which good work
 He handed it back to the driver and docked the drivers salary-whch system
 The driver placed the check in his white duck coat and sent it to the laundry-which was unwise
 The laundry mutated the check beyond recog- nition-which to be expected
 Which is why the driver asked the cashier to ask the grocer to ask the mans wife to ask her bus band to write a duplicate check. Which is why the man feels like he is paying that bet twice-Aiissis- sippi Banker.

"in PrincipIe''

Premier Hughes of Australia brings to the surface a peculiarity of the proceedings in the drafting Of the constitution the League of Nations that had been previously observed tendency to recognize in prn- cipIe' everything anybody wants recognized and to prohibit in principle" everything whose prohibition is desired; that is it designed to make con sttuton that would be all things to all men, It was designed to be offensive Another thing in the proceedings is that the representatives of all the .tions in the conference, except America have been fighting for something constitution that will be advantageous to their respective nations. But the representative America has strenuousy opposed the inclusion of anything advantageous to America but with great reluctance being brought to insist that there shall be nothing disadvantageous to his country.
 But returning to the pecuiarity which Premier Hughes has brought to the surface the contention of so powerful nation Japan in favor of racial equal ity in the league society family of nations is it's face so reasonable that with reasonable Iuent opposed If it cannot be accepted it is diff cult to see how Japan be accepted member. the other hand the inclusion of Japans contention would mean the abrogation of the immigration laws every nation.
 Thus impossible situation has been created which it is proposed to meet by agreement "in principle" with Japan's contention and agreement in practice the desires of every member nation with respect to immigration and naturalization. In such an arrangement the seeds of planted at the outset and might expect that they would ger- minate rapidly. But either Japan must yield or the constitution will not be accepted in America.
 Then there is the Monroe Doctrine for which recognition is proposed said to be proposed in Article X the most conspicuous feature of which is the studied neglect mention the Monroe Doctrine by name offense be given to European nations According the dispatches Article x denatured and meaningless as it is has already met with stubborn opposition.
 In these circumstances already apprised that there clement in the conference-most likely the entire conference, (except delegates who apparently willing and eager yield) hostile the Monroe Doctrine There America stands alone and unrepresented.
 Now suppose Article x is included with it's mean ingless phrases or suppose it should be finally ex- cluded can any sensible American not perceive that if that in itself must be bone of contention and a of war?
 In how many of the vague clauses of the covenant there concealed causes of dispute lecture. Many of them susceptible of varied interpretations national sefshness put upon they have been intentionally left vague to secure acquiescence in them There has been, of course hope that just interpretations will be made when disputes arise but justice will almost certainly be warped by national self interest.
 An indefinite constitution will be most dangerous The time to find understanding is at the be- ginng. In no other way may misunderstanding be lverted.

CHICKENS IN oGALkAH

A stranded peddler fingered long enough in Ogallah Friday to be con- vinced that the Kansas hen is smarter than the Missouri mule. A Ford car stopped in front of the store and was immediately surrounded by flock of chickens, eagerly gazing at the radia- tor. One old hen jumped up on the crank as if to read the name plate and inspected the front thoroughly. The peddler was amazed at the variety of chickens taking such an interest un- til informed by the town spokesman that they were looking for grasshop pers caught in the radiator.

Evening Chat
Finding our Talents.

Did you ever know persons who i'm
pressed you with the fact that they
had missed their calling or were I'M
fitted altogether to fill the niche in
life they were attempting TO fill when
perhaps you could discover some la
tent talent in them that might have
made them successful had they cho-
sen this other part?
have seen men and women both
who impressed me as being a round
peg in square hole, and It always
seems a pity to me that such should
be the case.
There is surely some one thing in
the world which each one of US can
do better than any one other thing.
and 1t seems to me that we should
mack It more OF study than we do to
find our proper niche and then to I'LL
1t.
Some OF US discover our talent per-
haps by chance, but ! believe we one
and all might discover 1t by study II
we put forth little more effort to
do so.
1 know young man who, contrary
to, his sex. is an adept at tying bow
Of ribbon, trimming hat artistically
and can do beautiful hapdworK, yet
he is right now digging away In a
shop where implements are manufac-
tured and is of course not happy at
his task nor successful. That young
man had he so chosen might have
been successful designer or draper
and would not only have made his
mark at this kind Of work, but would
have been happier in 1t than he is to
work away at task totally uncon-
genial to his taste.
! 1t always seemed to me pity too
to see young woman laboring away
in office, store or factory who has
strong domestic tendencies and who
would have shone as catereress or
as teacher Of domestic science.
Think how much better success a
boy with mechanical bent will make
as mechanic than he would as a
lawyer, doctor or merchant. A boy
with head for medicine. law or for
salesmanship would probably make a
failure as mechanic.
These vocational schools that are
rapidly taking their place in the pro-
6ANSoi'C SitlCo ehb lOW 10 Vi tlC SAAt-
ed States will do much toward cor
recting this mistake which is made
by so many Of US In selecting life
career. In these schools the boys and
girls are given excellent opportunity
to develop any talent they may pos
sess and the talent may be brought
to light in these schools which other
wise might remain dormant through
their entire lives.
1t seems to me that means should
be provided by state and nation for
developing special talents found TO
exist in these boys and girls in these
vocational schools who perhaps would
be unable to develop these talents
even where they are discovered. The
amount spent in training boys and
girls in vacations or professions to
which they are peculiarly well adapt
ed would certainly be paid back in

CHARLESTON Aug. 27.-The Eure-

ted attorneys representing the COM

The petitioners represent all oil and
gas companies and pipe line companies
affected by the law selected to make

Of the law, one representing the oil,
tho other the gas company.
IN their motions, which are identical
IN wording except in the references to

TO grant temporary Injunction inhib-
ting and restraining the tax commits
sioner from enforcing House Bill No
3, from requiring any return from
them of oil and gas transported. from
collecting or proceeding to collect in
any manner any tax imposed or any
penalty or fine prescribed.
In the case OF the attorney general
the companies ask that he be similarly
inhibited and restrained from enforc-
Ing or attempting to enforce any pen
atty or fine prescribed by the law.
About one-third of the annual in
come of the state of West Virginia is
affected by the test suits.
The tax provided for in the act Is
