to 01 hen' ! that they must not
violdh : Ihe la Wi ! ? ' { 'his queetion
UriSC8 daily ill thc minds of those
who fl'all t he reports of the
courts. ' 1'he : old idea was that
tbe l w shuulll nol show mercy-
it was 8tcrnnc ilsdf-and the
SClltCI1Cl ! waR Himply a punish-
1l1Cllt With 110 thought of reforming -
ing the IlIdll ; Inti lI1alc ng' him a :

iu pla e of an outcast. Hcform
1I0wadaY 1 scem to bc frcqucnl1y
thoug Itt of by ol1k rs of the law ,
and it i'hdievcd this prc-
sugc wcll for the futurc.
At A nuconda , Montana , a man
WilS rl cCl1tly released from prison
alll'l' lin shil1g a sentcnce of
HCVCII years for forgery , anti he
had uchaved so well during' that
time that he had securcd two and
half " time"-all
a years "good -
that he could possibly have ob-
ta ned to cutting' his salary down.
But at the door of the peniten-
ttary he was met with another
warrant of arrest for forgery , is-
sucd five years -less one day-
before he was locled up awaiting'
trial. Accurding' to law , had he
remained .in prison one day longer -
er he could not have ueen arreSL-
ed under the old warrant. Suppose -
pose he is cleared on this 'old '
charg'e because of the death or
auscuce of witnesses , will he not
feel that the world is against
him ? During hi. incarcenation
he behaved better than most
lrisoners. Would it not have
been better to have given that
man a helping hand and a trial
to see if he would not have made
a respectable member of society ?
' ! 'hen , if he failed , it would have ,
been easy to place him again behind -
hind the bars-even if the old
< ! harg'e was outlawed. A dis-
charg'ed convict should not be
given a kick on all sidc.-it - YOU
want to make society better. It
is aU right to punish for the
abuse of the law , but there are
'cases-and the one here mention-
cd seems to be one of thes\-
where lcniency wi1l accomplish
more to help the world than
following the strict letter of the
law. Years ago there was a man
confined in the peniten tiary of a
sibter state for a serious offense.
He became a "trusty" and he
earned every bit of the good time
possible. He had come west as
a young boy and gotten into
trouble. From one thing he had
fatten into another , until he had
committed nearl ) ' all the crimes
in the calendar. He professed
that he wanted to reform and
showed 1t by his actions. 'l'he
authorities from another state
wanted him on a very serious
chargc , but it was a qu stion
whether they could prove the
offense , because 'of the years
which had intervened. 'l'here
was "a mistake" made in calculating -
lating his good time and the
officials wbo wanted him reached
the doors of the penitentiary
after he had been discharged : for
a week. He went to fnother
state , took a new namc , went to
work like a man , gradually built
himself np and is now an honest ,
respected business man , sur-
r und.ed y a happy family and
his w1fe IS the only member of
the community who probably
knows his history. Was not that
action better than sending him
back to prison-even if he could
have been again convicted ?
And now our president has
suffered a strole of phoneticitis
.and declares in favor of spelling
words as they are pronounced and
in an abbreviated form. For
instance tbru is through and
kist is kissed. The plan does
not suit the RIU'UllLICAN throughout -
out the whole catagory of words ,
but it will save time when
we mention Roosevelt to write it
Rusevelt.

'l'lte rcpuhlicans of the state
have reason to feel proud of the
ticket nominated last week hy
the statc convention. It was the
first complete victory of the
people over corpora Hon con trol
of the politics of the state. 'l'he
Hcl < el IS conceeded by all to be
xceplional1y strong and especially -
ly i the head of the ticl l popular -
lar with the masses. ' { 'he selcc-
tion of Attorm'y Gcncral Norris
Brown as the Senatorial cancli.
date and George I4. Shcldon
candidate for g'overnor , was in ,
accord with the popular wi11 of i I
the people and there is no reason
why they should not only receive
the support of the republicans
but a l'arg-e vote from all liberal
voters of the other parties. As
t he election of Mr. Brown to the
United States senate depends upon -
on the election of a republican
legislature the legislative clis-
tncts can not be too careful in
selecting' their candidates. Only -
ly those who are in ful1 sympathy
with the principles announced in
the state platform should lie
nominated. Corporation or trust
candidates are very likely lo be
defeated if nominated. 'l'here
is a polttical revolution sweeping I
the country and those who think !
they can force themselves ag'ainst
the tide will find t hemsel ves clis-
appointed and their party defeated -
ed when the votes are counted.
'l'he deleg'ates of both the senatorial -
torial and representative districts
in which Custer county is situated -
ed are urged to be fearless reg'ard-
less of friend or foe and see to it
that only such men are nominated -
ed that will meet the demands of
the people and in case of their
election fill their respective positions -
tions with credit to themselves
aUtI satisfactory to their consti-
tuen ts.

Graciousl but won't Bryan be
surprised ( ? ) when he reaches
New York and finds out that the
Democrats havl' planned a reception -
tion for him. And he'11 ue
awfu11y mad , too. The Bryan-
ites repudiate the statement that
William J. , had anything to do
with the planning of it , 'cause
he don't like ostentation , and
when 'he learns what has been
done he will sli p a way from the
crowd and go to Hobo-Kcn.
Oh , no , he wouldn't plan a
reception for himself and he
won't stay in sight of one planned
by someone else for him. '

plowing.
We have had a few cool nilJhts

thought.it not the proper time
to visit here.
We hear a kick by some of our
farmeJs ; about the low price of.
fered for wheat , which may go
lower as the reports state larger
crops and yields from Canada ,
which may have a tendency to
yet lower the price. However ,
we think that later on the price
will ue better.

wheat and oats threshed. Mr.
