Address all correspondence to The Times, Trenton, Ga. It’e a hard hearted preacher who will dwell on ihe subject of future punishment on a hot Sunday morn ing: A Florida town has passed an ordinance regulating the speed of airsnips overhead, “Reform is marching oh.” An Ohio mail has invented a machine that will do away with typewriter girls. The man’s wife must be a cat. Will Tom Watson get the elect oral vote of Georgia?” asks the Macon Telegraph. Y r es; right where the chicken got the ax, Various newspapers are com meriting on the fact that “Mr. Kern looks like a farmer.” There is a powerful lot of farmers in this i country. What could be lnore appropriat than that candidate Taft should first read his speech of acceptance to the man who presented him with the nomination. They are selling booze in walking canes in Birmingham, Ala. It is said that parctically every man in bat town has developed a limp here of late. The rumor is not confirmed by private Secretary Loeb that Presi dent Roosevelt was “de lighthd” on learning of the remission of the $29,240,000 fine by Judge Landis. The Roosevelt deficit for last month has passed the $20,000,000 mark. This is nearly double the deficit for the same period last year and year before, and this is aLo the last year of Mr. Roosevelt’s ad ministration'. A prime occasion tor an adequate distribution of the Standard Oil Company to the Republican cam paian fund is now presented- If I-* j . given in the individual names of Rockefeller, Rogers, Archhold and other Standard magnates the law against corporations can lie happily evaded.

BARROWS of the Prison Reform Association. 1)0 not believe that it is a part of the policy of any % m - % foreign government to send its criminals over here. t If % The whole question of INTERNA 1 TONAL DUTY $ If IN REGARD TO CRIMINALS is perhaps not * * $ wholly established. For instance, the question of ex tradition is not entirely settled yet. If we adopt the principle of extradition of citizens and return them to the countiy where the crime was committed, we might also push still further the idea that we can send back all those who commit crime here. Ther tendency is, however, to try to punish the offender iii the country where he commits the offense. * * I DO NOT WANT THE LAW TO DE MADE THE EXCUSE FOR DRASTIC MEASURES TOWARD MEN WHO HAVE REALLY REFORMED. WE HAVE A LOT OF PRISONERS WHO HAVE BEEN PUT ON PROBATION AND ARE OUT ON PAROLE AND ARE PRAC TICALLY REFORMED MEN. ABOUT 75 PER CENT OF THEM DO WELL, AND IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO DRAW THE ALIEN LINE AMONG THEM, BECAUSE THE ALIENS DO JUST AS WELL AS THE OTHERS. The whole question of INTERNATIONAL RESPONSIBILI YY in regard to crime is an important one, and we must be careful. Of course the rush of immigration is this way just now, and we are the chief sufferers. If the only method of treating criminals is to be by punishment I doubt if a law compelling instant deportation would he effective in checking the commission of crime, although it would get Hd of the criminal. It would be known that deportation would be the only punishment, and I think WE HAY E GOT 10 GO Y Uit- TIIER and make it knowii to other nations that these men have com mitted an offense, have been found guilty and that some measures ought to be adopted to protect other nations and communities. POSSIBLY WE COULD GET THE COURTS OF OTHER COUN TRIES TO ACCEPT THE RECORDS OF TRIAL IN THIS COUNTRY AND ASSUME THE PUNISHMENT OR REFORMATION OF TH£ CRIMINAL AFTER HE HAD BEEN SENT BACK. America the Victim of Commercial Despotism; / By FREDERICK VAN EEDEN. Dutch Poet and Economist. ESRvESS and morals are separated by an abyss today, and there is no reason why this chasm should not be bridged. 4 Judging by the national characteristics, I. should say America would be disposed to adopt a system of faif busi ness. The Americans are willing to listen. They DO AO I SCO I* I 1 AT NOVELTY like the people of the old countries. Americans have the enthusiasm and the spirit of progress, which have not van ished or eveii diminished DESPITE FINANCIAL I Y RAN NY. AMERICA 13 MORE THE VICTIM CF COMMERCIAL DESPOTISM TODAY THAN ANY OTHER CIVILIZED COUNTRY IN THE WORLD. IT IS NOT THE FAULT OF THE PEOPLE OR THE LAWS, BUT THE FACT THAT BY SOME PROCESS OF EVOLUTION THE MONEY KINGS HAVE GAINED A DEGREE CF POWER NEVER EQUALED IN THE INDUSTRIAL HISTORY OF ANY OTHER COUNTRY. Public opinion, a great regulating influence, has beeii slow in stem ming the tyranny of the financial magnates. However, that $29,000,- 000 fine for the Standard Oil company was a fair example that in the end public opinion is supreme. I don’t believe the evib of concentrated wealth will ever be reme died by legislation. T believe the salvation will come from striking at the very foundation of the trouble, and that is the ECONOMICAL INJUSTICE OF PRESENT DAY SYSTEMS. THERE 13 MO REASON WHY SPECULATING AND SHAREHOLD ING SHOULD EXIST. SHARES IN A PROFITABLE ENTERPRISE SHOULD BE HELD ONLY BY THOSE WHO WORK AND GAIN THE PROFITS. CERTAINLY THESE GAINS ARE NOT LOGICALLY THE POSSESSIONS CF IDLE CHILDREN CF LUCK, WHO THROUGH IN HERITED WEALTH OR FORTUNATE SPECULATION SIT BACK AND THRIVE ON The laeors of others. Would Women Vote If They 1 Could ? By WOODROW WILSON, President of Princeton University ]TE power of voting does not bring ANY MA I TRIAL AD* P VANTAGE to women, as has been proved by experience in those states where women have had the 1 ranch i§c granted.

Less Respect For Religion In America ? By CARDINAL GIBBONS. CITE people of America are showing LESS RES PEC L TOR RELIGION than fifty or sixty years ago.
