Tne state of New York and iiot the United States is the owner of Governor's Island, according to the tho state department; after an ex-, haustive search of the records. The deed of 1647 by which the property was made over to the colonial gov- ernment is in the files of the state department. By the wording of an act passed by the legislature in 1800, the jurisdiction of certain Is- lands situated in and about the har- bor of New York was ceded to the United States, but because the the word \jurisdiction it is con- tended that the state never trans- ferred the title to 'the federal gov- ernment and still holds it. The pest legal authorities in the attorney gen- eral's office at Albany have made a long search through the laws bear- ing on the subject and have reached There is a bill in the New Jersey legislature which, if it passes, will abolish the death penalty in that | state. In an argument before the semblymanr - O'Connor - Hennessy brought out the fact that twice be- fore a state legislative committee had investigated the subject, the first time in 1847, and that both bodies had recommended doing away with capital punishment. The head keep- er of the state’s‘firison at Trenton spoke in favor of the bill and Mr. Hennessy made the statement that Wisconsin, Maine, Rhodo Island and Michigan have lived for some years without the death penalty, and with- out any evidence of increased crime. His argument, however, is offset by the well known fact that most peo- ple promptted to commit crime fear death more than they do imprison- ment for life. The Wall Street Journal says the 4 banking resources of New York are concentrated in the hands of a few men. Two groups dominate, with the leadership vestéd with J. P. Morgan | owing to his exceptional capacity. Every country has witnessed similar concentration of banking capital, and it is necessary for the safety of all hands that they work together. Tha ard Oil banks amount to nearly two billion dollars-Morgan, $1,109,291,- 000; Rockefeller, $878,963,800. To. these two groups could be ad ied the total assets of all the other New York banks. They all work together for mutual protection. The president of one of the largest of the New York } banks says bankers welcome a \scien- tific investigation\ of the so-called \money trust,\ their only fear is a \political investigation,\'* where de- magogues for campaign purposes would abuse their powers and misiead the public. \A scientific inquiry into the monetary situation of New York city can only result in good for all that the National Reserve associa- tion or some similar reform is need- od. Otherwise they will find nothing that will in any way show up the banking interests in a bad light.\ We must expect a disturbanco or stagnation in business while Congress is in session, and demagogues and politicians - are manoeuvering | for campaign advantages, to swerve pub- lic opinion, whether for good or bad. No wonder capital is timid and enter- prise is slacking. cOoMMENT Sound Reasons. (Rochester Post-Express.) ly in not being drawn into Soun1i reasons for asking Pennsylvania - supreme - court the to ' the ' Coatesville lynching cases were en by the attorney general. Chester ! county, in which a negro was burn- ed at the stake last August, has shown no disposition to punish any-l body for the crime, although the dis- | trict attorney, who joinei in the pe- | tition for a trial elsewhere, appears | to have done his best to secure con- ' Five men accused of be- ing members of the mob are still to be tried, and the law officers of the state and county have assured the court that no verdicts in accordance f with the evidence to be presented can be expected unless a change of ; venue is granted. Fhe trouble in Chester county, as in southern com- munities, is that juries are unwilling to convict white men for lynching a negro. The mob outbreak in ville was one of the most horrihle ever reported in any part of the country, and until those responsible for it are punished, the north can- not well reproach the - south shiclling Iynchers. Swift New Jersey Justice. (Brooklyn Eagle.) gwift as was the trial of land, it was no swifter than some state. The case of Albert Wolter, recently put to death for the murder of Ruth Wheeler, is an instance of what the trial courts for , . them for bait. murder trials right here in - New! \ york THE JOHNSTOWN DAILY REPUBLICAN, WEDNESDAY, FEB. 14, 1912. can accomplish in New York when they are properly directed. The es- sential difference between New York justice and New Jersey justice is not so much in the trial courts as in the protracted, tortuous and high- | ly technical appeal procedure which | ¥ permits lawyers to delay execution | § of sentence for a year or more after | sentence has been imposed. Jersey the appeal procedure is sim- pler and more expeditious. All of MacFarland's rights will be careful- | ly respected, but technicalities will not be allowed to prolong his life until his crime is nearly forgotten and the deterrent effect of his pun- ishment upon other intending mur- derers minimized or altogether de- | stroyed. A Mad Enterprise. (Buffalo Express.) Chihuahua is the largest of the Mexican states, having an area of nearly 90,000 square miles. It com- pares in size with Oregon and Wyom- ing, but has a population of, nearly 400,000, mostly Indians and mes-. tizos. It is wholly an inlaw of land titles. ~ The idea of making an indepen- dent country of such a community could arise only with political luna 4 tics. A revolt there which the Mex- ican government could not suppress would have to be put down by the | @ United States for the sake of peace on the border and the protection of American investments. Pretty Expensive. (Rochester Democrat and Chronicle) | The beauties of direct primaries were again illustrated in Louisiana, where, after a vigorous campaign had been conducted for governor by three candidates and for United States senator by the same number, the primary election resulted in no nomination for either office, none of the candidates receiving a majority of the votes cast. The battle will have to be fought over again, which j makes it pretty expensive business for the men seeking office. Acted Wisely. (Watertown Standard.) The Democratic house acted wise- : the third term issue as presented in the Slayden resolution. The Democrats are not embarrassed by the issue and { the net result of making it promi- | nent would be to make the people | believe that Taft and the Democrats were afraid of the colonel. The third term question isn't a matter for leg- islation. The people decided it long ago. Eyo Strain. Of all the misfortunes that could be- fall a human being, the loss of sight is probably the greatest, and yet no organ of the body is so constantly abused as the eye. The trouble is that the pos: ssor of the normal eye does not take into consideration that in all near work, as in reading, writ- ing, sewing, etc., the eye is actively | engaged as \ ~l as the hands and brain, and that the eye only is at rest when looking into space or when closed. f Starve to Gain Weight. The fat one who has been cout out of meals galore will now rejoice, The last cure for thinness is to omit every other dinner. A man under such treatment by advice of an up-to-date physician has gained at the rate of two pounds a week. With Parisian specialists advising five meals a day for obesity it sounds as if the doctors liked change as much as the mode: makszrs. Chinese and Japanese Brides. The Chinese bride is clothed in scar- let silk. But Tapan, strange to say, fol- i lows the western custom, and the Jap anese bride appears on the important morn clad in one resplendent garment of white silk. The sleeves of this cos: tume are usually two and a half feet long, while the sash measures some 11 feet in length. Cag aoe cemassom n mk cen ome An Incurable.

T. J. ALLEN Food Specialist WASTE A ATTER IN WHOLE WHEAT BREAD BENGE- FICIAL. The London Lancet, the great. est medical journal in the world, has expressed the opinion that the great increase In appendici- tis in Britain is due to the in. creased use of fine white bread. Appendicitis results from the ' putrefaction jn the large intes- tine of masses of incompletely digested food. No one can doubt the y of fresh. white bread to masse and putre- ty. -_- J have said that pgeanuts should not he roasted because albumen, of which the peanut largely consists, coagulates at . 160 degrees, and is then assimil- J ated with difficulty. The same applies to Wwheat gluten. A large percentage of the gluten with the indigestible matter in whole wheat bread is excreted. Btarch is one element of food that is improved by cook'ng; when thoroughly cooked 't Is more fully assimilated ti = any oth- er food element, e;~tpt sugar. It is natural to suppose, then, that a larger percentage of waste should be:- excreted from whole wheat than from white bread. But it does not follow that the white bread is better than the F own. A certain amount of waste matter in the food is beneficial, . stimulating naturally the action of the intestines.
