From a view of ample protection to society, the sentence imposed upon Harry Tracey, the dapgerous highwayman, scarcely fits the crime. This outlaw, with an air of brag gadocio, yesterday voluntarily con fessed to haying committed a larger number of felonies in this city during the past year than with which he is charged. This he did in the face of pleading guilty to indictments for the commission of four distinct crimes, each of which entails a penalty of twenty years. Not only that, this desperado made a murderous assault upon the county jailer and deputy sheriff a few minutes before he faced the tribunal which was to seal his doom. While the judge passing sentence upon this man is above reproach, as the personification of honor, be did an injury to society in extending a particle of leniency to the criminal, derisively grinning, standing before him. The court imposed a penalty of twenty years upon Tracey for each of the four felonies to which he pleaded guilty. But he erred in mitigating the punishment by allow ing these sentences to run concurrent. Society demands that full punish ment shall he meted out to those "viciously and violently infringing upon its regulations. Tracey is an untamable social creature whose freedom constantly is a' menace to well-ordered men and women. By reason of that fact society has the right to insist upon bis permanent seclusion. The law claims that a penal in stitute is in all essentials a reforma tory. In this also the law ens. The instances are too rare to mention where an ex-convict amounts to any thing, even in his own esteem. These "reformatories" graduate many more vicious criminals than those who enter them. As bad a man as Tracey now is, he will emerge, if be lives, at the age of 45 years, intensely more hardened. Telegram. THE DESIRE TO ENLIST. Whatever amount of truth there may be in the charges that during the late war the soldiers were badly treated, they have apparently failed to have any particular effect in di rections where it would be supposed they could hardly help exercising great influence, says the Astorian. Thus it is said that the rush of able- bodied and every way desirable young men to enlist iu the regular army as enlarged by recent act of congress is as surprising to the re cruiting officers as it is gratifying. Even the most sanguine of a satis factory response to the demand for more troops hardly hoped for such immediate and encouraging results. It was naturally expected that the damaging evidence brought out in the various beef investigations would have a tendency to at least cast a damper on any great desire to join the ranks, but nothing of the kind . has happened, or at least not to the extent feared. Another fect noticeable in these numerous enlistments, is that they come at a time when business is growing the country over, with in creasing wages and demands for all forms of labor. It has commonly been supposed that men as a rule enlisted only when they found other means of employment difficult or impossible. That no approach to this condition of things now exists and that still so many are eager to shoulder a rifle is proof of a patriotic spirit in our people that is brimful of promise and hope for the country's farthest future, so far as that may "be said to depend upon the war like . mettle and martial ardor of her sons. Deafness Cannot be Cared. by local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear, There is only one way to enre deafness and that is by constitutional remedies Deafness is caused by an inflamed con dition of the mucous lining of the Eus tachian Tube. When this tube is in flamed yon have a rumbling sound or imperfect bearing, aud when' it is en tirely closed, Deafness is the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed for ever; nine ca&as out of ten are caused by catarrh, which is nothing bat an in flamed condition of the mucous sur faces. We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that cannot be cured by Hall's Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars ; free. F. J. Cheney & Co., Toledo, O.
