The Law n to YeKraea
The. QxforcU43ger warnsyeggr.
men that the North Carolina Leg
islature "so amended the law as
to provide life sentence lor the
yegg class of criminals." A bill
was introduced in Legislature
to proviue u j)enintyur xo v
years imprisonment in case of
burglary by explosives. This
measure, or one similar to it,
pas-ed the House, but some of
the the newspaper legislative re
ports announced that it was
abled in the Senate. Some fit
the lawyers looked at the meas
ure askance. It created a new
pffence, they said ;and many law
yers .view with disfavor any
change in the law which' creates
more trouble for the violator
thereof, seeing that it is a'part
of the business of the legal pro-
;e;sion to make smooth the path
of the wayward. But the Land
mark hopes the law passed, as
the Ledger thinks. The folks
who carry jexplosives around and
set them on that they may break
in and steal, are dangerous.
They are of the class that will
commit murder or arson if it
suits their purpose; and as the
scope of their activities has large

A Newton special to the Char
lotte Observe of the 22J lays:
To a man in jail because of the
lack of 5.80 to satisfy; court
costs, " a letter Containing a
stamped envelope, 20 cents in
cash and "32 kisses," may not
be of very - substantial benefit,
but that is what a prisoner here
received today from his wife at
Winston-Salem and it probably
represented the maximum of her
ability to help him.
He is the man whose uninvited
presence aboard a soutnern
freight train caused five officers
to foregather at the station to
make his arrest, although he was
unarmed, inoffensive and. sur
prised as much as the official ar
my called out by a conductor's
telegram.' Wires for help from
his father have brought no mon
ey, and he will have to serve 20
days in jail before he can other
wise get out. The wisdom of ar
resting gentlemen riding freight
trains and boarding them 20
days at the expense of thecounty
is questioned; and the man is not
a hobo at all, but a wOrkingman
out of a job and hunting a pay
roll.

uTauthority for the statement
that during the last four months
of 1914, only 75,000 horses were
shipped from the United States
lor Europe, and by the horse
census, this country has a popir-
lation of 24,000,000. There arej
25,000,000 in Russia and 100,
000,000 . in the whole world, so
that these two countries own al
most half of all the horses of the
world's stock. . The real demand
of horses is going to come after
the war is over and the Govern
ment is expecting the American
stock owners to realize the finest
prices yet known. As . this de
mand will last through many
years, it should make stock rahv
ing even more attractive for the
Southern fanners. Inuring the
next few .years the hors$ drover
is likely to find business lively
and nrofltable. 1
