LAW MICH TAKi: ITS COl'ItKIS.
The terrible UniKcdy '(.-muted a
few daya ago t CoQulllo when u
father took the law into his own
hands and nhot ami killed another
man who had wronged his daughter
Is Mill fresh in the memory ol most
of us, if reports of the affair are
correct the fa to meted out to the
deceiver was about whut ho deserved,
for there is no lower specimen of hu
manltv than that man who will de
liberately and out of the pure desire
for lust ensnare a young; Kin auu
then ruin her. Hut harsh as are his
deserts the law provides a punish
ment for such creatures and we must
not tolerate another man taking the
nositlon of JudKo mid Jury "d pun
ishing the wrongdoer upon his own
fliulini'
We notice expressions In tho col
umns of several issues of Coos comi
ty ih iters which have a tendency to
exonerate the man who lias afm)uu
that he Is guilty of the shooting. This
Is not right. Our sympathies are
with this wronged father. We feel
that no punishment would have been
loo severe for the desplKuble act of
tho dead man. Hut we should not
allow our sympathy to run away
with our Judgment and common
sense. The law may Hoinctlmes be
slow: It may sometimes bo appar
ently harsh: It may sometimes even
work great hardships, but taken all
around it Is about ns just and fair
as couldj bo devised by Imperfoet
Immunity, Tho nubile pn-ss Is the
last institution that should eonUm
Miro nny Interference with the iid
mluistartlon of tho criminal law or
make It harder for the state's . at
torney to get a fair and Impartial
verdict from the sworn Jurors, Any
articles which tend to exonerate the
nian-klller will have Its Influence on
(he minds of the readers, who will
Inter be among those drawn to serve
as Jurors at the trial of tho self
confessed murderer who Ik going to
use the unwritten law as his defense
for bis net. Iet the law take Hh
course unaided and uunsHlstcd by a
prejudiced press which has a ten
dency to bring about a hostile alti
tude to the just administration of
tho law. '

A Irfivo Song. f
llrowu eyes I say, yet say I blue.
I think her mouth Ik a melody.
Her bosom ft petal sunned and new.
Jier hand Is u passing sigh.
Illuo eyes I say, yet somehow brown.
Her mouth Is the verge of all re-
pose,
Her breast a smoothed out viol tone.
Her bund Is an early rose.
Ho her eyes of blue or brown, in
deed; He color or music what she Is,
I nothing know, but my life's own
need
Is tho fancy of her kiss.
