for the purpose of bringing

community feel that the judge

J- les who showed him no leniency

feel that other men have served 4

tions is:
"To Whom It May Concern: ,:
"Inasmuch, as the former Governor
of Oregon has seen fit .to grant, to
cne J. -A. French, a self confessed
criminal, who pleaded guilty to hav
ing taken from Wallowa county and
: the widows and orphans, approx.
mately twenty eight hundred dollars,
a conditional pardon, conditioned upon
the repayment of the arnount taken
by said French, said French having
been sentenced by Circuit Judge
Knowles to a" indeterminate sentence
; of from one to five years in the fits to
penitentiary, and
"Inasmuch, as the said Fren.'i
has not repaid the sum so taken, nor
has he ever been made to sere
said sentence and Is now at large, ami

leniency will be detrimental to the

call it, "Hamburger Brust Thee." at any

tea, put a cup of boiling water upon

If a nian is let off with no punish
ment after he has taken public mon
ey and betrayed the trust of tho
people, what logic could there be in
reking that the more common vio
li tors of the law be fined or im
prisoned ? To make possible tho
future enforcement of the law,
many persons felt it was a public
(uty to go on record as opposed .1;
partiality and favoritism.
- A petition, circulated only a few
hours and :nert by a concidera1.!
number of men, had been submitted
to Judge Knowles at the time of tho

ends of justice have been defeated dial, asking that Mr. French be p i
r.nd such procedure makes of justice

further that such pardon was not in
accordance with the sympathy and
the sentiments of the citizens of Wal
lowa county, . .:
"Therefore, we, the undersigned
taxpayers and citwens of Wallowa
county urge that said J. A. French
either be confined In the state peni
tentiary for not having fulfilled the
roled. ., This was read in court u
the time. Judge . Knowles said Ve
would not parole Mr. French if a peti
tion was presented signed by every
mun, woman und child in the county
. This petition recited statements
made in court by Mr. French's law

from such bodily ills that his mind
hud been unbalanced und he was not
responsible; his physical . . condition

A Tardy Aot of Justice. '
Marriages between Kugllsh actresses
and men of a high social islt)on be
gan in the eighteenth century, If no
earlier. There, was Lavlnla Kenton,
the Polly Peachum of Gay's "Beggar's
Opera," who becuiue Duehes of Bol
ton: there was Miss Farren, who mar
rled Lord Derby; also Miss Brunton
became I.ndy Craveu not long before
Lord Tuurlow nianled Miss Bolton.
Earliest of the list, though, comes the
Garl of Peterborough, who married
Anastasla Robinson, tbe singer, and
kept the marrlnge secret until a fen
days before bis death In St Jamea'
palace, when be assembled bis relatives
and friends and publicly acknowledged
tbe woman "to whom he owed tbe
best and happiest hours of bis life," a
tardy act of justice that caused tb
lady to swoon away. .
The Luxury of Sugar
Sugar was considered an article of
luxury In Europe until tea and coffee
became usunl articles of diet Sugar
was then used to sweeteu these ber
erngos and so gradunlly came to have
a prominent part In the daily diet Be
fore tbe dnys of sugar much more
meat was eaten and tbe drinking of
alcoholic beverages was much more
common. The -fair maiden who could
not wiyi tmpuulty drink a pint of al
tor breakfast wns unusual. Perhaps.
In spite of tbe fact that most of us
eat too much of It sugar Is a blessing,
Even orersweeteued coffee and cereal
covered with sugar sound more ben
