Whether or not V illa’s body lies mouldering in the ground, his soul seems to keep marching right on north toward the border line. A little girl was burned seriously, probably fatally, in Rochester Tues day because she became panic strick en when she saw her dress in flames. There are few times when a cool head and self-control are more nec essary than in the case of an occur rence of this sort. James H. Morton of Hemlock pleaded guilty before Judge Doty Monday of violating the excise law, and was sentenced to sixty days in the county jail and a fine of five hundred dollars. This part of the sentence was suspended, however, so long as he stays out of the liquor business. It was expected that the defendant would p u t up a hard fight, but we understand that the district- attorney was prepared for every thing that could be submitted in support of an alibi, which was to be the strong point of the defense. We believe it can be said here truthfully that this sentence is approved by every law-abiding citizen, man or woman, in the community. It is a sentence about the justice of which there is and can be no question. Judge Doty knows,and so does every body else, that imposing a fine for selling whiskey without a license, or for selling on Sunday, is a joke, which has been tolled off so many times that the people are sick of it. Morton, of all men in town, knew that he had no right to sell whiskey. He ought to have understood before for example, by the man who drives a horse and buggy at night without a lamp of any sort? Without questicn he is endangering his own life, that of any one who may be accompany ing him, and of others who may pass or meet him on the road. The law that every vehicle shall carry a lamp after dark is not meant for a joke and it is a regulation that is rightly on the statute books. The only trouble is that it is not obeyed or en forced to any extent in the country districts. Of course a good many are willing to run the risk of an accident on the basis that as nothing has hap pened so far, probably nothing will happen. Such a course of reasoning, however, is the same as that which leads a man to reject .fire insurance, assuming and trusting that he never will be burned out simply because he never has been up to that time. But it doesn’t pay to take chances. It is not foolish or “ finiky” to take reasonable precaution, and even if a man is willing to run the risk of per sonal injury, he really has no right to compel other people to run that same risk. Any man who drives after dark without a light,.not only lays himself liable in case of trouble, but makes travel less safe,accidents more likely, and takes an unjust advan tage of every one else on the road.
