Tar daily papers are every now and
then telling us about bank cashiers ‘‘go-
ing wrong.” When a poor man takes a
loaf of bread to feed his starving children,
it 1s called stealing and the thief is sent
to prison. But bank cashiers neversteal;
they only ‘go wrong.” Every man who
goes to parts unknown with thousands
of dollars of other people's money, in.
stead of going to penicentiary, goes |
wrong,

cent date: * Pupils who disobey the rules
of a school should always be punished,
and the punishment should bear some
proportion to the magnitude of ‘the of-

consists of sending a pupil home is the
acme of absurdity and should not be tol-
erated by any intelligent school board.”
Right yon are, Bro. Smith. This thing

ter, stoutly denies that lie refused to print}
a certain issue of the Commercial on ac:
count'of an alléged article that was unfit
to pass through the mails. Well, since
that subject has been broached, we will
just state that Tae 81aR also has a ‘crow
to pick” with Mr. Sulirie, becanse we
have been informed that he tried to keep
‘the last copies of the Carleton Times that
we sent 10 Moyeradale from being deliv-
such a sul! trick, for there wasn't one}
obscene word iu the item referred to; bat
remembering that one whole issue of the
Register was rejected at the Meyersdule
postofice, on aceount of an alleged ob-
scene article, and remembering that mis-
‘ery loves company, perhaps it would be
well to nsk Mr. SBuhrie whether he has |
anything to sny why sentence should not
be passed upon him. If he is guilty we
would like to have him confess his guilt
and give his reasons for meddling into a
‘brother publisher's business, and if he is
innocent we would like to have him as-
sert his innocence. For our part we
think it a very small picce of business |
for one publisher to meddle with another
publisher's private business. If a pub-
Hsher publishes anything obscene in his
paper; and thereby makes his paper un-
mailable, it is his own lookout and his
own biasiness.

masked men who took him to the outs

rubbing the festhers into this and then
hauling him nearly to Tecumseh, dropped
him with the warning that a hanging

The victim has lived in Johnson for
ten years and has frequently been too in-
