However, it is characteristic of some people to damn a public officer if he does, or damn him / if he don't. His only protection is in exercising his own good judgment, and taking no risks with a thoughtless mob. And, just here we want to say that the outside world would never have known what Sheriff Scarboro had done, if those con nected with the governor's office had not given the news to the press. Now, whether this was justice to Sherill' Scarboro, or a spec of a modern journalistic en terprise, we let the public say. Its publication did more harm than good. Our Rig Pension List. V. H. Story, a deputy col f fho Grand Army Encani lle other day told tho New imesofa disputo between i and Confederate veteran as to tho right or wrong of tho Ci val war, when finally the Union man exclaimed: "Well, you must admit, anyway, that we licked you Johnnies good and plenty." "Yes, you licked us. "That's true," replied the Southerner. 'But I have boen looking over the \ pension list lately and i lind thal wo must have wounded a devil of u lot of you and that we aro help to pay for it still." A court recently held that a fel low who atolo a kiss from a pretty girl is not guilty of assault be cause there waB no intent to in jure. Well, it is furthermore held in STAK chamber that it is not larceny because the kiss he took is the kiss he gave thc girl. There could have boen no kiss without the follow had a sharu in it and if sho didn't kiss hack oho had no share in thc osculation, 1 lonco ho did not feloniously take and carry away anything that be longed to the girl. A mother was trying to im press on her four year old son the importance of going to bed early, "You know," she began, "the little chickens always go to bed with Lho sun."
