CRIME AND ITS PUNISHMENT.

The increase in crime in New York
has led ''men of little MINDS" some
of whom sit in the legislature OF
that great State and some others,
who wear judicial ermine, to con-
ceive and advocate the plan to in
crease the punishment by making
tie new laws unduly severe. This
action brings about spirit Of re-
tai alton in the criminal classes and
instead of becoming better, they
become worse. An innate sense of
in ustice, chargeable to organized
SO ,iety. tends to increase crime and
MOI to check 1t.
rhe teachings of the stoics and
the seers as well as the warnings of
history attest the fact that it is not
the severity of the punishment that
checks crime, but the certainty of It.
There is ghou.ish glee now, when
ever a man, who has been up, comes
down. A citizen, who accumulates a
competency for his family is regard
ed as being among the outlawed
class.
The Holy Bible is no longer q
guide for many of our representative
men. The feeling of revenge per-
.neaes society and it is followed by
spirit of retaliation on the part
IF the ether fellow. This led to the
French Revolution. 1t was symbol
',zcd by the excuses in the over
throw of the absolute monarchy OF
Russia 1t is superseded by the boss
ism of the leaders of the masses and
then follows bloodshed in it's most
h;deous form.
The people of this country are fast
drifting to this state The time is
near at hand that men will not stand
sound doctrine and the teachings Of
the Ages are flouted, Still, the
Christian people of. this nation have
only to stand firm. The final triumph
of right, ia in the. offins.

About Amendment 13

A short reply to Mr. Whitrocks let
ter against school consolidation and
Amendment No. 13.
/ have been i'm Randolph county for
81 years and feel like l am small
part of it, only own 1876 acres of land.
As to no one writing against cOnsolida-
tion and 13 there is such a few they
are and ought to be ashamed.
| live in consolidated district and
/ believe that we have eight real teach
ers and they most all came up in the
rural schools The county people be-
lieve in education of the highest stan
dard, that is what we are for.
We have p pupils taking high school
work in their Overalls and gingham
dresses and boarding at home and that
means lot to the country boy ana
girl.
Now, as to the 18th Amendment l
want every man and woman who cares
anything for their children and who
wants to see them advance and be
something in life to vote for No. IL,
and give the boys and girls of our
state a better school advantage. The
tax payers of our county are for NO.
13 and for consolidation and why not
let us little two by four tax payers he
for IL when our taxes are so small that
what many of us pay wouldn't bay
face powder and paint to send one
girl to the city school. SO let's get
busy and put No. 13 over, four to one.
Respectfully,
Wesley James.
