burden Of social aid and displaced the
normal relief agencies Of the country
OF course, 1t has done no such thing
but 1t was necessary that the fact
should be established beyond peradven-
ture of doubt. The truth Is that nc
governmental authority ever can substi-
tute for the practical spirit Of brother
hood and charity, fellowship and mercy
which providentially flourishes in every
human breast.
Mr.. Roosevelt made 1t perfectly plain
that, far from taking over the work OF
the Nations social agencies, he is rely
ing upon them to contribute toward
the success Of his recovery program
They are part of the mechanism which
is being built up to restore prosperity to
the land. Those who furnish the means
for the continuance Of their 9abors will
be aiding toward that end.
Hospitals and welfare agencies Of the
character building sort, Mr.. Roosevelt
especially noted, should have unfalter-
ing cooperation during the coming
Winter. The demand upon them will
be heavy, and their need Of funds will
be commensurately great. 1t would be
intolerable to conceive of them being
permitted to fail. The thoughtful citi-
zen, conscious of widespread distress
under present conditions, cannot avoid
wondering what would happen were
these defenses of society removed. No
individual, surely, would wish to add to
the suffering, but that would be the
result of any neglect of personal phi
lanthrophy this year.
Like the President, every man, wom-
an and child in the United States has
a duty to help. Each community must
do its part. In Washington the Com
munity Chest plan sfrnpnhes the prob
lem, conduces toward efficiency, pre-
vents waste and conserves time. Ex-
perience has shown that it is by far the
best device thus far evolved for The
prompt, effective and merciful relief OF
authentic human needs.

The Only Sure Cure.
ON the Omaha World Herald.

From the Omaha World-Herald.
A plot to kidnap the Governor Of
Kansas or one of his two daughters has
just been revealed. The ransom was
to be parole of a half-dozen infamous
knaves in the Kansas Penitentiary.
Whether this was real plot or hoax
on the Governor cannot be determined,
since the attempt to carry 1t through
was not made. The probability OF its
genuineness is indicated by the fact
that the information which came to
the Governor checked with every known
particular except the elimination Of the
plot.
Genuine or hoax, the episode serves
to illustrate the cost of temporizing with
jungle beasts in human form. Every
one of the six malefactorS whose de-
liverance was sought is proper candi-
date for the hangman. Every one Is
not only serving time for a vicious
crime committed in Kansas, but is
wanted elsewhere to answer to other
equally vicious crimes. At liberty or in
Jail, every one is a menacing nuisance
to society which it doesn't have to toll
crate and wouldn't tolerate If It were
able to get rid of the sentimental hotioi.
that a rattlesnake ought to be treated
with difference when it happens to wear
pants.
The objection is frequently raised
that capital punishment doesn't deter
crime. The answer is that we don't
know, because we never have tried 1t.
Most States provide for capital punish
ment for murder. but they don't execute
the murderers impartially and i'm
placably. Now and then some poor fool
is bumped of for MASKING in the head
of his wife in jealous passion. but We
cling to the idea that gangland can be
reformed by pious prison workers.
Whether capital punishment would
deter the neophyte Of gangland from
graduating into full-fiedged criminality
or not, one thing Is certain, every
gangster dangling at a ropes end or
with jolt Of electric juice through his
body is one who has been permanently
discouraged from committing further
crime. Every one undergoing course

Little Men, High Places.

From the Bakersfield Californian
The hope will be that there Is little
basis for the reports coming out Of
Washington to the effect that Senators
of high standing are entering into a
campaign designed to give them larger
powers in the matter of Federal patron
age and threatening to vote against the
administration policies and recommen-
dations if their requests go unheedAd.
The dispatches go so far as to saw
that the patronage question is def
nitely associated with the problem of
imitation and that the President can
prevent too drastic action in behalf of
the latter by acceding to the request of
Senator'S IN connection with the disposal
of jobs. Which demand, we submit, is
craftsmanship of high order.
The masses of the people Of the
United States are very definitely behind
President Roosevelt in his effort to con-
duct a managed. campaign that will
restore economic conditions. The aver
age citizens has very little interest In
Federal appointments other than to
hope that the choice will fall upon
worthy men. Certainly the people are
unwilling to see the Presidents program
hamstrung by disgruntled Senators
ciamoring for patronage.
