Women in Crime

WHAT are we to say of the many major crimes
w In which women figure, covering now a ions
period, and in no sense to be considered an cpl
demic or a wave to be accounted for by some spe-
cial circumstance? =
The news Of one day presented nine separate ara
matte spectacles, tragedies of the first order, IN
which women held the leading roles. Their settings
IN six widely separated sections of the country
All murder cases and all distinctly brutal in char
acter.
Woman has certainly misinterpreted the constl
tutional rights and privileges granted her OF late
The right to take human life was not one OF them
The eternal triangle figures in almost every case
in the particular days news. The cause leading
to the crime may be a perfidious man. Be that as
it may. The actual crime Of murder, in the cases
in review. was committed by woman. 1t is that
woman steps to the center of the stage and assumes
the stellar role in these horrible affairs, is what
has aroused the curiosity OF the readers of news
papers. How to account for it is the puzzle.
Time was in this country when such a thing as
murder committed by a woman was an almost un-
heard OF occurrence. And when it did occur no
jury conviction could be secured, however conclu'
sive the proof or revolving the crime.
Today woman is understanding man In this en-
deaYor and has made of it a rather sporting prop
%ositiou. And juries, composed Of either sex OF
mixed, as a general thing still refuse to convict.
Murder remains the capital offense against both
moral and legal codes. 1t is likely to always re
main such. That murder should be avenged is as
true today as when Cain killed Abel. That pun
ishment of a murderer is a deterrent to Others
against committing the same crime and found to
be the best object lesson to be impaired, in the ex
perience of enlightened peoples is as true today
as when first established in practice.
The only reasonable view then, to be taken with
respect to the alarming increase in the crime OF
murder, is the refusal to inflict punishment, where
woman is the criminal.
If a better situation is to be brought about, the
law against murder must be upheld by juries and
courts regardless of sex; and whoever commits
murder must receive punishment and the law vim
Dictated.
Among the outstanding murder cases occupying
public attention in the days news referred to arc
the Obenchain case in California, the Beal case il
Kansas City, the Phillips case the hammer case in
Los Angeles, the Roster case in Philadelphia, the
Bergen case in Hackensack, N. j, the Champion
case in Cleveland, the Hodeu case "a White Cloud
Mich, the HallMills case in New Brunswick, N
j., and the Harlow case in Fresno, Cal. In all OF
these women played the principal part and caused
murder if she did not actually commit it.

Others Liberty

Self-governIng people must have
the spirit which makes them self-con-
trolled. which makes every man com
petent and willing to govern his i'm.
pulses by the rule of declared prin-
ciples. And more thai that. men in
a self-governed democracy must have
a love OF liberty, but others liberty.
We mus. respect the opinions and the
liberty OF the opinions OF our coun-
trymen. That spirit excludes ma
tired OF our opponents. That spirit
excludes a desire TO abuse, to vilify,
10 destroy. All of us in foreign
lands have felt the blood rush 20 the
head, and felt the heart beat quicker,
felt n suffusion OF feeling upon see
ing our country's flag floating In
strange ports and in distant cities.
That, my friends. is but a false SEN
timent unless 1t carries with It a
love not only for the flag. but for
the countrymen under the flag. True
love OF country Is not an abstraction.
It means a little different feeling
toward every American because he is
American. 1t means a desire that
every American shall be prosperous:
1t means kindly consideration for his
opinions, Off his views. for his inter
ests, for his prejucices. and charity
for his foilies and his errors. The
man who loves his country only. that
he may be free does not love his
country. He loves only himself and
his W way. and that is not self-gov-
eminent. but Is the essence OF des-
potism.-Elihu Root.

Politics at Sheridan

QHERIDAN has within the past day or two
" dumped a considerable quantity of coal under
the political pot to accelerate its boiling and the
desired result seems to have been secured
1t all came about after Mr.. William G. Irvine
made his regulation statement to the electorate of
Wyoming to the effect that he was supporting Sen
ator John B. Kendrick for United States senator.
The only notable thing about such a statement is
its regularity when Mr. Kendrick happens to be a
candidate and the only reason it is made at all
is to make 1T appear that, Irvine having at one
time been a Republican, was willing to forego par
the outstanding superiority Mr.. Irvine saw in the
Democratic candidate.
In the first place Mr.. Irvine has not been a reg
ular Republican in many years, although clinging
to the skirts of that parry because of its dominance
in the state and very likely for other purely sell
fish reasons, But so far as being a Republican Of
CONVICTIONS, he has been no such thing.
There are those in and about Sheridan of inouis.
tive turn of mind, who asked why Mr.. Irvine al,
, 1922-10-29

ways came to the front with the familiar public
communication in support of Mr.. Kendrick? Know.
ing Mr.. Irvine they quite naturally began TO look
for the reason.
1t was found in the fact that Senator Kendrick
and Mr.. Irvine are profitably engaged in business
together. Are the joint owners Of a vast and val
liable tract of coal land on Tongue river contig-
nous to the developed field ia which five separate
million dollar corporations have for many years
operated, and have but lately closed oat their hold
ings and properties to the Peabody Coal company,
the greatest coal trust il. the United States.
.Ingrisitive gentlemen, although satisfied they
b1d found the reason for the constancy of the II
vine support, dug deeper into the matter to dis
cover what more there could be 10 it. This led them
to the public records Of Sheridan county where an
"option agreement was turned up, filed on Febru-
airy IS, 1920, made b. and between the Kendrick-
Irvine corporation and the Sheridan Wyoming Coal
company.
No one would complain of such a business trans
action in the ordinary course of affairs II it were
not for the popularity of some of the vital pro
visions and the Interpretation TO be placed upon
them with relation 10 their effect in law and their
liability under the revenue act of the government.
One of the articles has to do with the amount
OF annual rental OF this tract of coal land valued
at s5O0,000-S72,500. 4 clear profit of nearly X
per cent on the sale price named in the so-called
reement
Another feature is the option to the lessee TO
purchase the property at the end OF four years,
January II 1924, on payment of 100000 in addi-
tion to rentals already paid.
It is pointed out by attorneys who have stud
led the document that the significant feature lies
In the fact that the full price paid under the four.
year clause would be s590,000, whereas the amount
paid If the agreement run the full term, seven and n
half years, would be only s5i3, $50. How come
1t is an old and well established usage in bust
ness that a discount be granted for cash payments
before due, in tnis case a penalty is apparently
exacted. Where the exception occurs, suspicion at.
taches and an explanation is due.
Under the circumstances, public opinion in.
Sheridan, where the matter is being freely dis
cussed, inclines to the belief that strange excep.
ton OF the usual business custom has to do with
the large surtax involved in the outright sale of
a half-million-dollar property.
If there is no foundation in fact for the possin
that is certainly rampant in Sheridan. then some
candid explanation from Senator Kendrick or Mr..
IRVINE is about the only thing that viii prop
eriy rebuke the scandal mongers.
IT would be a tremendous slam at a United
states senator to say that he deliberately lodged
a federal tax he is widely advertised as having
chan,pioned in behalf of the poor people, The
facts in the case should not only be laid before
the people of Wyoming but before the people of
the nation. No senator should lie under such a
charge, even by implications.

CONDITIONS IDEAL At
BINGHAM FOR HATCHERY

Nine hundred thousand baby trout,
10000 destined for the fishing
| streams of Umatilla county and 2OO,-
600 to be kept as brood trout to sup
ply eggs for future Matching, have
reached the lingering stage at the
fish hatchery being maintained at
bingham Springs by the State Game
Commission, under the direction of
T.. w. Rennie.
The 100000, Mr.. Rennie believes,
will be from two and u half to four
inches long by September and will
then be liberated. The fish kept for
brood purposes will after from two
to four years be ready to spawn. They
will be liberated but after reaching 4
point 800 feet upstream they will be
trapped in a ''V'' and the eggs will be
placed in the 20 troughs which COM
prise the Matching apparatus.
The brood trout are kept in pond
25O by 100 feet, while the other fish
are in a pond half this size The fish
were Matched from eyed eggs brought
to Bingham during the middle of
June. They were removed from bas-
kets to the troughs and after living
for two weeks ON the egg sacks, the
present diet of ground raw liver and
cooked mush was begun.
The temperature of the Springs is
ideal for the raising of brood trout,
Mr.. Rennie says, but the water is so
warm that great care must be taken
during the Matching process. The loss
on the fish hatched this year was
100000, there having been 100000
eggs in the shipment. I<ingfisher
birds are the only present menace and
these are being killed by Mr.. Rennie.
This is the second year the hatch
cry has been in existence, and a num- |
Der of improvements have been made +,
since last year. The ponds have been |
deepened and dirt and rocks removed |
leaving a gravel bottom. A shed has
been built to house the troughs. Mr.
Rennie states that more improvements
are to be discussed by a. e. Burgdoff,
