INSUFFICIENT PUNISHMENT.
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)
