THK PKATH IX MISSOI RI OF FRANK JAMES, who though
netrr convicted of crime wa reputed to be a meml-er of the fanwu
Jame gtn& of out laws who were chared yeart a-o with many
Operate acts tais the quistion whether the bltf bank and train rohherits
of 30 yeart aKo are a omimon today.
A a whole, crime rrnu decidedly on the increi. Hut the hi crime
kt of a generation x&K which w fired the imagination of the outlaxv davi,
may be tin daring for the modern wieak burglar and foot pad.
Hank robbery can not be ai profitable a it ued to be. F.Iectric and
-eel protecti.m bw made large bank impregnable. Here and there a
mall country hank might be ripped open. But the return, would not be
Kitiicient for the rUk.
A highly exphive state of ociety pervaded many section! at the time
the Jame gang were active. Gun toting was general. The gun w ere not
carried for ornament, but for real use. Celerity in pulling them and ac
curacy in using them wa an essential element in a gentleman's education.
' These condition developed very daring and resolute men. quick in
decision and rapid in execution. A train robbery was no carefully planned
stroke of business, but a udden lawless impulse. The life of the plains
of 30 to 40 year, ago developed many a character perfectly capable of these
acts at any time he left the need of cash.
Train robbery probably does not seem attractive to the sneak criminal
rf today. He i looking for what seems more lite a sure thing. Sleepin
people in their beds, unarmed pedestrains in dark corner, of great cities,
houses left alone and unlocked in daylight, these are the favorites. They
are much safer than a hcavj train where express messengers and others are
apt to be armed, and where the telephone quickly summons bands of offi
ce to search the country.

While many farmett may regard their buine at one in whuh there i
no need of Nulkeeping. it due not iep.iire much argjment to lww that the

farmer a the itierchant or the manufacturer.
At present the average farmer consider that he know hi business

THERE IS ONE EVIL that civilization seems unable to remedy. It
is the manufacture of foolish and useless laws.
A review of the acts of recent legislatures is enough to convince any
one that this country is over-legislated. In Kamas there is a measure to pro
hibit the piercing of women's ears and to prohibit the wearing of ear-rings
at night. In Texas if cards are played two nights in succession in the same
house, those playing will be arrested and fined or imprisoned, or both. '1 he
law in that state also prohibits the handling of cards on a railroad train.
But Oklahoma has gone further than Texas. In that state there is a
law that provides that hereafter a "straight" in poker shall beat a "flush."
The house ol the Ohio legislature passed a bill providing a penalty for car
lying a red flag in a public procession.
The Oregon legislature, in its own way, has almost equalled the record
of other states. Of course the nine-foot sheet law heads the list of the utterly
foolish, useless mexsures but the action in the lawmakers in regard to tax col
lecting should not be ignored. In 1913, the power of tax collecting was tak
en from the hands of the county sheriff and deposited with the treasurer and
in the session just ended it was transferred back to the sheriff. Similar ac
tion was taken on several other matters.
This tendency to pass frivilous measures will not end until the faddist
and the extremest forget their missions. Every crank and zealot must have
his day like the proverial dog but the people of most states are getting sick
of fool laws.

HE OLDER LEdAL PRACTICE in this country complacently
sent a man to jail for 30 day for getting drunk, and trusted to the
neighbor to bring in food to the family. The neighbors were will
ing to do it. Hut more commonly the wife, determined little creature, would
not let any one know she w as in want.
The laws have disregarded too much the plight of women and children
left without support by imprisoned husbands. It is therefore a pleasure to
read that. Mis May Allison of I Angeles, Cal.. has been appointed by
the county supert isor. to look after the money earned by married men sen
irnced to the chain gang. The husband's wage are to be deposited to hrr
credit a trustee.
When a man parts with his substance for intoxicating liquor, he must
crawl home with a healthy sense of shame and sorrow for the privations of his
little family.
But after a period of this maudlin pity, he suddenly discovers that hi
wild course do tend to create certain independent sources of revenue. After
he firmly acquires a reputation a a drunkard, kind neighbor will come in
and save the wife and children from actual starvation. The more the huv
hand drinks the more time he spends in jail, the more the family grts, and the
freer he feels to squander his earnings.
It is safer in many places to neglect your wife and children than to take
a few dollar from a bank. The law hunts down the embezzler to Canada,
but the machinery of extradition can't be started for mere non-support. It
may be said that a deserted wife can go back to the comfort of her former
home. Hut after she has stood up in all the glories of her satin and laces
and shower bouquet and veil, it is hard to admit that the w hole thing was a
cheat and a farce. It is easier to drop out of sight and struggle along as
!st she may. This control of husband's earnings is a good idea and laws
can't be made much too severe for neglect of families.

The Canhy Herald propounds the following problem: "If it takes a
four-months-old woodpecker with a rubber bill nine months and 13 days to
peck a hole through a cypress log that is large enough to make 117 shingles,
and it takes 165 shingles to make a bundle worth 93 cents, hotv long will it
take a cross-eyed grasshopper with a cork leg to kick all the seeds out a dill
pickle?" An editor who can figure out such a problem of pure nonsense
has no place in a newspaper office. He ought to be in New York instruct
;ng George Cohen in writing comedies or taking the part of comedian in 0
modern chorus girl musical comedy or, perhaps, under the care of a keeper.

The Salem Capital Journal in lengthy editorial makes an attack on the
county road bonding plan and quuttM recent history in Columbia and Jackson
counties in an attempt to prove its point. The Salem paper is sidetracked.
It really finds no fault with the county road bonding plan although it docs
criticize men who attempted to carry it into execution in two Oregon Coun
ties. Given a fair chance, the road bonding scheme would be a success in
any county in the state and the Capital Journal submits no evidence to prove
otherwise.
This week William Jennings Bryan, secretary of state of the Wilson
cabinet, a man who occupies the most dignified position in the national
government excepting only the president himself, spoke in New Yorc city
theatre before a full house at a good price. The money paid the secretary
for the stunt has not been made public but it was probably large, as Bryan
is capable of taking a headline place on any vaudeville circuit in the country.
