~ The. Ailverton Sun ———————————— THORSDAY, SEPTEMBER 30, 1897. The. rush, seems ‘now to be from Klondike to Dawsop city. The Toronto Telegram suggests that the United. tes. establish a close season for niggers. Tt is announced from Ottaga. that Sir Oliver Mowat will shortly sueceed | 7 Sir George Kirkpatrick as Lieutenant Governgz,-vf: Ontario and thas the portfolio. of Justice has been. offered .to | and. id Mi al on., ‘The Russians are beginning. to.buy. our grain for seed purposes. Ten tons: tect, these islands and to hold her epal seas.” are to be shipped from the Dominion experimental farms to Vladivostock, in Siberia and to be distributed among the farmers there in the hope of im- proving the grade of the wheat in that | per a territory. Even burglars have tender hearts ; Evidence of this was given the cher’ | night in New York where a burglar at | bad # night entered the house of an old com woman living alone and demanded her | ™y past unacknowledged tq quietly give up everything she own- 4. He made a grab for her arm but sha, eluded him and plied him with the, following questions:— My God! Heayen'fyqu a mother? Is she old and | for: has. sho,, grey. hairs? The burglar answered, “Yes, but she is dead,’ and the battle ended there. He departed as he came, muttering as he went, “Your grey hairs saved ‘you to night.” Althéughicapital. punishment is on the Statute books ag. a penalty for |i murder it is to be,hoped. that it will es seldom be inflicted, ag. the. moral in-}1 fluence of a hanging on a. community |* is ten times as bad as that ofa.murder. To kill a fellow being while-under the influence of anger or hatred isaterrible thing and fills one with a sense. of| error at the thought of murder. But for the State to deliberately take upon itself the right to punish by death drives from our minds . that sacred horror we have at seeing human blood spilt.
