T YOUR TRIBUNE our Tribune after looking varefully for tt call 15 or 16 a a by epecial messenger before & n'clock ane Cock on the Weathervane iy people have wondered about the significance of the yon the w her-vane, largely used on houses intended vorship, employed more often in olden times, but still-met with oc onally in this day. The use of the figure of the cock, extends back into the centuries. It is one of the many symbolic features of Christian architecture throughout the Christian The symbolism of the cock on the weather vane is. con nected with Peter's denial of the Lord. The two suggestive les sons are vigilance and loyalty. One writer on the subjec’ “Vanes om the tops of steeples were anciently made in form of a cor of watchfulne: This statement is corroborated by a simi Catholic Encyclopedia. Indeed it was for many above the cross on many European churches, titled, “A Help to Discourse,” published in 1633 is the follow- ing query and answer:: Wherefore on the top of chureh steeples is the cocke set upon the cross of long continuance? “Phe flockes of Jesuits will answer you. For instruction: that whilst aloft we behold the crosse and cocke standing therefore we may remember our sinnes, and even with Peter secke and obtaine mercy, the scriptures were not a suff With the building of the more ornate modern churches of our time, the rooster was eliminated with the weather vane and other symbols substituted. There are still 1 any churches in this country built in the last century on which the cock and weather vane still adori the tower or steeple, while throughont Europe they are many times more numerous. These objects, in this day, have ed from modern building and their Register complaints the nd put up in papal times to remind the clergy one in the rears placed In a book en- Court Criticism Chester S. Long, of Kansas, president of the ss0¢ ion, expresses the opinion tha is miscarried and delayed because there are so many laws and restrictions on the courts.” This is yery true, and the courts should have relief. They should be relieved also of the technicalities afforded under the accepted practice. They should be relieved of many other obstructions and interferences and placed upon a basis where, as nearly as possible, even handed justice may be delivered by courts and juries as well. / The severe rities of courts ure the learned courts of the land, and the high-minded practitioners of the law, themselves. They know the difficulties of securing justice, and the faults of the system. Why they do not take effective steps to remedy a situation against which they constantly complain causes won- der on the part of the Jaity. It would seem that where the “only object to be sought is the simple determination of right and wrong, ways and means could readily be found to remove the impeding e and every honest yer and every just judge would bend his efforts te that desired end. The courts of the country are the last resort of the peo- ple. They should be the most looked-up-to institution under the American system of government, They occupy a position in the minds of the people, superior even to the executive branch. The outery inst them should be stilled, by a prompt reformation of whatever gives cause for criticism. While the courts are in no sense sacred and above the respectful obser- yations of any citizen, they should maintain, by their actions, that very position. To large extent the courts do this. The exceptions, are the glaring instances that give rise to unfayor- able comment upon‘the institution As to Khowledge Every young person, seeking some short cut to wisdom, wants to know what knowledge is of most worth. There is but one answer—science. In Gustave Flaubert’s “The Temptation of St. Anthony” there is a passage which says: “My kingdom is as large as the world, and my desire knows no bounds, I am always marching forward, freeing minds and wei hing worlds, without fear, without pity, without love and without God. They call me science.” Amerk ‘criminal. justice Bar nce is nothing but trained and organized “common -” “Common sense you know is most uncommon. The ast results obtained by science are won by no mystical facul by no mental processes other than those which can be practiced by every one of us, in the humblest and meanest affairs of life. The method of scientific investigation is noth- ing but the expression of the necessary mode of working of the human mind. It is simply the mode in which all phenonena are reasoned about, rendered precise and exact. The man of science has learned to believe in justification, not by faith, but by verification. The development of cc natural knowledge in all its yast range, from physics to history and criticism, is the con- sequence of the working out in this province, of the Huxleyian resolution to “to take nothing but the truth without clear knowledge that it is such; to consider all beliefs open to crit- ‘cism; to regard all the value of authority as neither greater nor less than as much as it can prove itself to be worth, Huxley, one of the greatest of English scientists, observed, “The improver of natural knowledge absolutely refuses to acknowledge authority, as such. For him blind faith is the one unpardonable sin.” It is readily apparent that we live in a world full of ignorance, and the plain duty of all of us is to try to make the little corner we can influence somewhat less ignor. ant than it was before we entered it. We can perform this task best if we are trained in science, remembering that its virtue is that it accepts nothing by blind faith, A Futile Plea “Mua” Ferguson, governor of Texas, in the midst of threats of Impeachment, the calling of the state legislature in special ession for the purpose of investigation of charges of graft ng in office, in sey departments of the state has sought to stir up a dust in another direction, ‘y a sitned statement with reference to lack of enforcement of vrohibition in Texas in which she pleads for the violator with «pocket flask of moon on his hip, and denounces the wealthier citizen who purchases a quart of “safe goods.” It is a cheap w of getting out from under the tronbles that are about to relieve her of office.
