DON'T ItllKAK THE LAWS OK MAN, They were sittiiijf in tin O.-VV. smoking cur liiinlciil'fol to gollii.T, oiH! n HWiirtliy-fiicctl, durk-cyi'd limn of nltout. tliirty-l'ive years, tind the other a dissipated clia of thirty. The handcuffs, while not tiht, had stopped the ' hlood circtilaliwi un'd their hands helow them were purple. l.ehind sat the sheriff, an Idaho sheriff who knows human ity and who takes no chauees with desperate men. When he was asked from whence he had come with the prisoners, he sjiid: ' "Over in the Coeur d' Alene country one is up for I. W. W. work and the other for assault, the kind of an assault that makes a man's hlood run cold." We looked tit those men chained toyelher riding along and thought of the slippery paths of society; thought of the' first Btep taken, which is so easy, only to he followed hy step after btep until fidl'hloom crime is as easy as was the first step." Then the thought tame to us who is to blame? Is it society, us society exists today? Is it hereditary? Is it just- a natural condition that brings forth so many of one kind of men and so many of another, all to 'lie thrown in the hoppr'r of life? There may' he something in the society argument, there may he a little in the hereditary claims, but. the fact remains that every man is a mini. He is pure at the start. He is a re flection of the great Divine Spirit, if we are to believe religious teachings that all demiminations accept. This being true, early training and environment have, much to' do with a man's out come. It had with these two men. One had joined the I. W. W.'gang. lie .was gifted as a speaker and immediately he began organizing, making speeches and became n leader such a. lender as the United States of Ameriea will 'neither condone nor permit to run at large. As he talked and organized he became further saturated in the .belief that he, was not getting: a square deal ill the world. He grew more brazen until the strong arm. of Uncle. Sam's law stud tir him kindly but firmly, "My boy, you are no longer safe to run id large and we will have to take care of you." -The other pris oner was sexually unsound. He showed it in his face. Degen eration left its marks upon his brow, furrowed with evil thoughts, lfe stepped across a path thai is forbidden and .for his crime Uncle Sain again says, 'My boy, you are an unsafe man, and we will have to 'detain you behind prison walls." . The Observer. earnestly pleads willi every young man to not break the laws of man. It -matters not how . oppressive those laws seem to be, respect them. .If the law is wrong it van be changed tind better by far had you devote your life to legislative matters that will change the law than for ymi to break it. In this free Republic, law is the only .kinjj, the only rule) we have. It is our guide, our anchor. .Young man, .don't break the laws of nii(ii. , ' . i ' i ' V " KAFK AM) SANK AITKAI. I'KKY AILS, " One of the age-old appeals for safety and sajiily that comes out of editorial rooms year after year, has diminished in volume. Not because of dishenrtedncss, but because of success of the tip jural. The terrible casually lists of by gone days is very mater ially rediiefd, though not eliminated, for' then' will always lit those who are neither safe nor sane. Hut the long -fitch t for safety and sanity got results. Tomorrow and the day following thewe is plenty of oppor tunity for lockjaw, missing fingers and burned eyes- plenty of room even yet, in spite of municipal statutes against the use of firecrackers. This 'legislation was necessitated because of the old, old rule of humanity that the wise majority suffers for the fool minority. In order that we may have no reason for miitow Tuesday! why not exercise prudence with fire crackers the nevt two days'.' Most of us have acquired caution in this respect, but not all. Let the morrow bring forth no firecracker casual! ies. My JUHIUS Tin- Office Cat Will u'i-1 You.
