OHN BROWN has been praised as a holy tnartyr aud denounced as @ J murderous ruffian, He was probably nelther, but a vistonary, highs minded, unpractical fanatic. [His early Ife was pot remarkable, Born in Torrington, Conn., in 1500, he drifted westward, working alternately as farmer, tanner, shepherd, surveyor. and wool merchant, winning no real | success, and chiefly noteworthy for his oft-expressed horror of war and j bloodshed. When the slavery question became important, Brown and twelve lof his twenty children threw themselves body and soul into the Abolition (antl-slavery) movement. | Brown and five of his sons were Iving in Kansas in the & | two years foucht at risk of thelr lives to hold that State to Jeause.

HUGHES recommends that | betting on horse races shail be pro- | hibited at race tracks by the penal code as well as by the State Con-| stitution. An anomalous situation has ex- isted since 41895 in this State through the distinction which the| penal code makes between making | bets within a race track inclosure and making bets anywhere else In : the State. To bet on one side of a fence is a felony punishable by imprisonment in State’s prison, while to the.other side of the fence has no criminal pemalty attached to it. In this recommendation the Governor will have the enthuslastic sup- | port of the two classes of the commumity opposite in respect to betting “monats, ~~.
