The appli- cation to the Federal Court is said 10 have been made on behalf of Lorraine Snyder. the young daugh- ter of the condemned Mrs. Snyder, who has been made the defendant in the insurance suit, on the ground that the execution of her mother would destroy her defense.
 New York. Jan. 12, tP)-State Supreme Court Justice Levy told why he had granted stay of ex- ecution for Mrs. Snyder He said: .It may well he that after the oral argument there may be lack of merit in the application but no one may gainsay that the least this in- fant Lorraine Snyder, the daughter, was entitled to was an opportunity to be heard.

NEW POLITICS

Up-to-date, at least, the present
campaign, at the top, has been con-
Quoted along higher ground than
! formerly. There is less of the vic
ious, foul, mderhand, bitter person.
al attacks and mud-slinging than in
the past. The nation is showing a
growth in education and good taste.
When a big business corporation
is considering change of policy or
management membes of the board,
some for and some against the new
departure, thrash out earnestly the
arguments pro and con and then ju-
diciously and calmly settle the ques-
ton by vote. There are seldom any
hard feelings; rarely if ever delv-
ing into gossip, personal history and
habits; never an invention of unfair
and disgusting canards. 1t is an in
telligent procedure-it is business.
Political questions may be and
should be settled in the same
thoughtful and dispassionate way.
Our government is largely a big
business-the biggest in the world
and it's problems can best be\solved
by reason and thoughtful considera-
tion. Angry men, red in the face
and spOuting vituperation, are not
help but a hindrance. We are
getting beyond that stage.
Just contrast, for a moment, the
present campaign with that of 100
years ago, the campaign of 1928.
The candidates were John Quincy
Adams, the incumbent, and Andrew
Jackson, the military hero. Parti-
sans of the former accused Jackson
of being an ignorant, dangerous,
self-willed demagogue, entirely un-
fit for being the chief executive Of
fficial of a great nation. Jackson's
followers accused Adams of "steal-
ing" the election four years before
by a corrupt deal with Henry Clay,
and of being a dishonest, selfish
of the hated aristo-
cracy and an enemy of the common |
people. No language was too rough |
or vile to use in characterizing the |
and the heated language
led to fist-fights, stab
bings and shootings.
Such was the humor of the times,
and the times were rugged and raw.
It was not the fault of the candi-
lates, for both were good men of
nigh caliber. Both are in the list of
)ur honOred former presidents.
There was no need for quarreling or
lighting to elect either one of them.
That sort of campaign is getting to
)e as much out of date as the old
'ractice of husbands beating their
wives.
Ours is a growing nation, and we
lave grown in refinement. At least
We hope sO.-The Pathfinder.

and the first showing of the educa-
tional pictures will be next week.
The first is weeks the pictures will
pertain to geography, after that the
school will select pictures from var
ious other fields. Some of the early
films which will be used in the
grades are the "Story of Salt" "The
Land of Cotton" where Silk Comes
From" etc. These moving pictures
will prove decidedly helpful and
stimulating to the pupils and teach
ers of the school.
