Society's Warning Note.
T 11111313 MONTHS ago clvlt
izntlon was horrified at tho
disclosure that in Paterson,
N. J., four1 men, two of
them married, ono tho father of grown
d.iuglitcis, cno the son of a family
which had afforded lilin every oppor
tunity of education and culture, and
all drawn fiom a familiar and not
from nn unnatural environment, had
united in the commission of a crlmo
of such vicious and Inhuman a charac
ter that its details can hardly he
hinted at. What was even worse, It
was established that crimes similar in
prompting, If not in result, had been
not uncommon in that city, as well as
In many other cities where the ex
tremes of loafing tlch and underpaid
poor presented an inviting field for the
devil.
Today, by a swift but accurate oper
ation of her legal machinery, which
frhould serve as a model to all tho
other states of the union, New Jersey
is enabled to point to tho fair trial
and conviction of tho criminals in the
case of the assault and murder ot
Jennie Bosschleter as a token that her
laws arc not to ba broken with Im
punity. From the standpoint of tho
student of court procedure the casa
presents much to Intel est and to
please, It may well bo asked, If the
law can be vindicated thus quickly
and cheaply In one state not inhabited
by a tnce of people different from tho
population of tho other states, why
should Jersey justice remain n, unique
.specialty?
But on Its social side the case Is not
so cheerful. It suggests the disquiet
ing inquiry whether, In the conditions
and tendencies! of our modern indus
trial life, with Its unhumane owrnin
phasls upon the Individual as simply
one of many units engaged In machine-like
lubor, and with its cruel
drafts upon womanhood for tho earn
ing of family bread, there is to be
found tho best atmosphere in which
to rear families, inculcate morals and
safeguard with chivalry and reverence
the women who are to ho the mothers
of tho race. It Is prosy and old-
fashioned yet it is true to fray that
where womanhood is not respected
society plants seeds of its own demor
alization and decay: yet tho tendencies
toward increased respect of sex for
sex are not so numerous or fo power
ful that moments of apprehension and
oven of discouragement are not per
missible to tho observer of current
affairs.
If by the rude shock of outrage and
murder there is to ba awakened new
energy on the part of tho forces of
t-oclal cleanliness and self-preservation,
' the sacrifice of poor Jennie Bosschleter,
gross as it was. will not have been
in vain. But shutting the eye to these
ovlls does not cure them. Thev are
present In every city; many have the
Impression that they are growing out
of proportion to the growth In popula
tion; und whether this be true or not
theie is work for real reformer!'.
The yellow journals show a dispo
sition to find fault with King Edward
VII before ono official act has been
pp formed."
The RiKht -Spirit.
THE CONSERVATIVE spirit
displayed In the proceedings
of the United Mlno Workers'
-j n national convention, which
vcll illustrated in the emphatic
t'lfusal of that body to take out of
tliej hands of the national executive
joa,rd the adjustment of a new agree
3uent in the anthracite region to tako
"tho p'iaco of tha provisional agreement
which IsTo expire on April 1, is a hap
py omen for the future of organized
labor In Northeastern Pennsylvania.
The1 proposition voted down by tho
convention wus for a ten per cent, ad
ditional advance coupled with an eight
hour day. It 13 exceedingly doubtful
If cjther of these dctallH could be en
forced without a struggle which would
plunge the whole country Into an In
-
dustrial panic, and it is for tho boat
interest of both miners and mlne
ownors, to say nothing of tho publlo
at large, to avoid all steps which would
tend to oxclto trouble but on the con
trary to work harmoniously for con
tinued peace.'
The last mlno strike ended in a vic
tory for tho men and there has boon
general gratification over its outcome.
Hut It must not be overlooked that In
the meantime great changes have tak
en place or been outlined In the owner
ship and control of the anthracite
Industry, one of them being the re
tirement of the individual operator who
know his men personally and could
treat with them understandlngly. This
centralization of mine capital matches
In power the recent centralization of
aiMiraclte mine labor and It calls em-
phatlcally for mutual conservatism
and conciliation rnthcr than a pitting
of strength against strength in a war
that, if ever entered upon, would spell
ruin for tho communities affected.
A proposition comes from Utlca. for
tho Bottlnsr apart of a Welsh day at
tho Buffalo Tan-American exposition.
Says tho Utlca Press: "Tho matter was
recently brought to tho attention of
the officials of tho exposition and has
received their favorable consideration.
Director General Buohnnnn said that
he would gladly (jet asldi a day and
advertise it widely. He suggested
that it would be advisable to formu-
lato a programme early in order that
It might bo brought to the notlco of
Welsh societies all over tho country."
An eisteddfod Is nnturally the first
suggestion to present Itself; and should
ono be arranged It Is safe to predict
what city will secure tho chief prizes.
Direct Election of Senators.
THE COMMISSION appointed
by tho last legislature to
work for an interstate)
ngrccment in behalf af a
constitutional amendment maklngUnl
ted States senators directly elective by
the people, Is expected to submit its
report at HHrrlsbtirsr tomorrow; and
tho report is expected to disclose that
a majority ot the state legislatures ore
in favor of such an amendment.
The ptlnclpal basis of argument of
fered In behalf of this change has baen
thnt It would secure a higher averngo
of ability, character and statesman
ship In the senate. This we do not
concede. The party method would still
prevail. Nominations for tho office of
United States senator would bo mada
in political conventions just as nomi
nations for governor and other elec
tive stato offices are now made. Tho
candidates would electioneer among
stale delegates as they now electioneer
among btato assemblymen. Factious
would fotm for tho control of state
conventions as they now form for con
trol of state legislatures; and while lit
close states caro woutd doubtless l'o
taken to place on the party ticket no
man unlikely to poll tho party
strength, tho situation In states llko
Pennsylvania would remain as be
fore. But the direct election of senators
would offer ono advantage worthy of
more general consideration. It would
free tho stato legislatures to perform
undisturbed tho activities of law
making. It would insure the doinr?
away with deadlocks and secure a full
representation of each state In tho
senate. Today a number of states arc
having difficulty In electing senators,
by reason of deadlocks which compli
cate greatly the ordinary work ot
stato legislation, a? well as defeat tho
manifest Intent of tho Constitution
that each state should have unbroken,
and complete representation In tho up
per branch of the American congress.
The experience ot tho Manila editor
recently deported by General MacAr
thur, shows that tho freedom of tho
press may follow tho flag, but It should
not get too gay.
Honcsty In Politics.
N THE World's Work for Feb
ruary a plan Is offered to "cut
tho core" out of municipal rot
I
tenness, a disease now concoded
ly general. "Tho source of corrupt
municipal government wilt never be
permanently removed," that magazine
asserts, "until tlch men and mana
gers of great commercial and financial
Interests find a way to tcslst black
mall. They now nearly all contri
bute to campaign funds, many to
the funds of tho bosses of both par
ties, and not a few pay money to pre
vent legislation that is proposed on
purpose to secure blackmail. Thero
will bo municipal misrule organized
oppression, In fact until the funda
mental causo of It Is removed. If a
vigilance committee. In addition to
closing dives nnd stopping tho petty
levy made on unfortunate women and
tho keepers of gambling houses, could
stop tho great source of supply of cor
ruption, wo should have n new day in
municipal rule. What If men who con
trol great Interests and manage groat
corporations wore to agree, nnd pub
lish their agreement, that they will
never contribute out of their trust
funds to any campaign committee nnd
would never pay peace money? Tho
powers that prey would then die ot
starvation."
In other woids, n restoration of civic
conscience and common honesty Is
nocessar.v, and this Is tho nub of the
whole difficulty. A good deal Is said
nowadays about tho corruption exist
ing In politics, as It corruption wero
confined to the men who aspire to
j public office. Before there will lis
lasting betterment In government a
good deal will ulso havo to bo said
and dona on tho subject of corruption
In business on the getting of special
privileges dishonestly; on the accumu
lation of wealth by means which vio
late tho spirit, If not tho letter, of both
statutory and moral law.
In one of our well-ordered small
communities soino yearn ago a textile
manufactory was established nnd the
management vested In tho brother of
the owner. For years It Junt cleat cd
expenses. Suddenly tho managor re
signed and opened a factory of his
own. Tho owner, upon Inquiry,
found that during all the years of his
brother's management he had boon
systematically robbed. The manager,
although the owner's own brother, had
charged supplies up at their listed
price nnd had pocketed a cash robato.
His pocketlngs formed tho capital ot
the new plant. Suit for reoovciy was
brought, but the tracks of the thief
had been too well covered to furnish
absolute proof of guilt and he es
caped. Today he Is a rich man, while
tho brother he robbed Is only ordi
narily well to do. Does society te
Ject the thieving brother? Not at oil.
He got away with tho swag; ho wao
smart enough to steal so elsverly that
the law couldn't throw its lasso nliout
him, and for his wealth und his clever
ness society applauds and Indorscshlm.
In politics such a man would be pil
loried as an Ingrate and shunned. Yet
there aro those who argue thnt corrup
tion is worse In politics than in other
fields of human activity; and who
poem to think that tho need of reform
begins and ends within political lim
its. Heaven knows thera is rottenness
enough In politics. It doesn't excuso
It to say "you're another." But how
many latge contracts In strictly busi
ness circles nro landed on the unadul
terated score) of merit, and how many
by processes of manipulation or of In
direct or outright bribery which havo
becomo so common and so conven
tional as no longer to shock tha utro
phled conscience of many of our great
business leaders who, from tlmo ta
time, exhibit emphatic scorn for the
poor llttlo boodler In councils who l
willing to sell out a constituency for
a pass, a wine supper or a few dol
lars In cash?
This subject has more than ono side.
It should be considered from various
standpoints.
i
There Is a growing suspicion that
the Indian uprising at Muskogee does
not exist to any groat extent outsldo
of tho festive press correspondent ot
vivid Imagination.
Tho absence of startling news from
Venezuela muit be taken as proof that
everything Is again quiet In tho vicin
ity of the asphalt pond.
Some ono will probably soon bo offer
ing a rnnsom for tho two Bradford
county youths who havo started out
to capture Pat Crouo.
As tho "Woman with tho Hatchet"
Mrs. C.trrlo Nation Is liable to make
tho public forget all about "Tho Man
with the Hoe."
Democracy Is In such a weakened
state at present that even a dollar
dinner produces Indigestion.

LITERARY NOTES.
The Immediate success of Tb Wotld's Work
a fact unparalleled In magsilne history Is due
In great measure to Its dominant Americanism.
The expression ot a strong and broad spirit f
nationalism and the embodiment of American
Ideals have met an instant response. Tliers Is
a strong note of pitrtotlsin In all American
achievement. The Tcbruary number la cnarac

sketches of Cecil lthodes and General Kitchener
written by men who personally know them, an
article on "Tho Changing Character ot Immi

taking tho place of tho Irish), and an account
of a naturalist's adventurous climb to the sum
