Credulity and Praud.
AN OPINION of novel Inteiest
and far-i caching consequence
. has been given by the Su
pieme coutt of the United
Stales In tho case of the American
School or Magnetic Healing, of Nevada,
Mo against the postmaster of Nevada,
to pi event the latter from executing
a fiaud order Issued against It by the
postolllce depaitinent.
The Tacts vvete that the member ot
this Institution who was alone sup
posed to huve the pow cv of healing dis
ease by the "absent treatment" piocess
was not living at Nevada, us the lltei
ature of the "school" Implied, but was
residing at Mnnltou Springs, Col., and
the so-called healing Instructions sent
thiough the malls to putehuseis weie
not sent by him but by n corps of SI
tMiewiilers. Upon this basis of ine
stimable Imposition the postolllce an
thoiltics seized 2ii,000 letters addressed
to the school, stopped the stream ot
$1,000 which was dally pouting Into the
Nevada postolllce and tiled to pioteet
tho inuny ciedulous peisons who were
patting with their money with scant
piospect of getting any other equivalent
than experience. Resistance In court,
to the depuitmcnt's action brought the
whole matter before tho Supreme couit,
which, In an oplnlonjiy Mr. Justice
Peckhani, holds that the postal authoi
Itlcs have no legal light to stop the
malls of any poison or Institution on a
fiuud ordei concerning whoso business
tho allegation of fiaudultncy lests not
on fact but upon opinion. Sus tho
learned justice:
Just to what etent the mental condi
tion affects the body no one can accur
ately and definitely suj. One pef-nn may
believe It of far gicater efficacy than
another, but suielv it cannot he said
that It Is a fraud for ouo person to
contend that the mind hns' an effect upon
the boch' nnd Its physical condition
greater even than a vast majority of In
telligent people might he willing to ad
mit or believe. Rven Intelligent people
may, and, Indeed, do, differ among
themselves as to the extent ot this men
tal I'ffi'ct. Because the complainants
might or did claim to bo able to eltect
cuies by leu'-on of working upon and
affeetlnif tho mental powei. of the In
dividual, and diieutlng them toward the
M eomplishmcnt of n cure of the dNcnse
under which he might be suncrlng. who
cun sav tint it U a fiaud or a false pre
tence or piomlse within the meaning of
the statutes? How can any one lay
down the limit and say bc.vond that theie
aie fiaud and falve pt deuces? The bill
in this ca1-,. nvois that tho-e- who have
ljuMnc-s with the complainant aie satls
llid with their method of trcatini'it and
aie cntlielv willing that the money they
sent Mioula be dt'livoied to the complain
ant?. In other words, they seem to have
l.iltli in tho etlicacv of the loinplalnaiits'
tie.itmi'iit and in theti ability to heal as
claimed lv them. If they tail, the an
swer iulf,hL he that all human nuaus
of ti catmint are also liable to lull, and
will ucccssailly fall when tho uppointrd
time ariive". Their Is no claim thai tho
treatment bv tho complainants will al
ways succeed. As the itteitlv flics of
almost any partlculai method of tiiat
ment of disease is, to a more or less
extent, n. fruitful souice of difference of
opinion, even though the gunt majoilty
mnv he of one wiv of thinking, the
efficacy of any special method is ceitaiu
lv not n matter for the decision of the
postmaster general within these itntutos
relative to traud. t'nlcs the question
may be reduced to one of fail, as dls
thii'Ulshid lrom inem opinion, wo think
these statutes cannot be Invoked lor
the puiposc of stopping the delhei "of
mall matter.
Having the assent of the hlghfst
conn, although, as a matter of Pact,
Justices White and MiKenna dissented,
this must be assumed to he the law.
Rut it is, vve think, a veiy unfortunate
law, the piaetlcul effect of which will
be to tiid mateilully In the lobboiy of
the ciedulous by sluupeis who aie moi
ally less entitled to the use and facility
of the malls than the gicen goods dealer
or the gold blick swlndlei. TI13 logic
of this opinion, especially In view of
the gt owing tendency to view facts In
tin Christian Science manner as hav
ing no existence othei than by imagin
ation, would speedily destioy all sale
guaids nt the mails, since the question
of fraud must always be to some de
sire a matter of opinion, even tho ex
istence of a fact In evidence being nee
eisailly a matter of opinion.
It Is to be hoped that congiess will
soon take up the question of the post
master genoial's tiutlioiity to ipgulate
the malls nnd enact a eleaily defined
series of piovislons whlcli shall leave
this Impottant matter In as little doubt
as possible. This Is decidedly disliablu
fiom many standpoints,
And now Holt Collier must feel very
much like a wtud politician who failed
to "deliver the goods" on election day.
The State of Ireland,
Tin; chhjk of police of ru
mlugham, Ruglund, has not
ified the luauufncliuci.s ot
small aims lit that elty thuc
win like munitions expoited to pio
clalmed districts In It eland will bo con
fiscated, and that llieanus intended for
oilier paits of the country not specliled
lu that categoty must bo dellnltely
inaiked and uieouuiod tor on the- bill
of lading. This might appear a small
matter since no peison Is pet milted In
li eland to eairy arms or keep them at
homo without u special pennlt or mag
istrate's license. This seveio lesti lotion
of the Impoitatlou of aims with tho
sister count u- shows, however, that the
Rugllsh government appteltends, ir not
a lebelllnn, at least a i evolutional y
ebullition which may lead to hoiIous
consequences. The light to senuh,
seize and convict for the possession of
Individual turns Is ouo of the foimal
and distinctive pieiogatlves or the Itlsh
police. Domkilluty seuieii for anus has
been one of the most exasperating and
ilghtfully obnoxious methods of coer
clvo government to which Ireluud has
been subjected. The englishman's
boundless fnlth In lepiesslve machinery
In Ueuling with his fellow citizens
ucross the channel would be pathetic
were It not so hlsloilcdlly futile und
lamentably Idiotic. Tho iulcl-.-vvltted
Irishman plays on those stupid feurs ot
tho stolid Hilton. If lilslnneu wero
armed to the teeth, all that they pos,
aibly could do Is o pcrpetiato covet t
oiltiages, nmt no possible disarmament
enn pi event these If (he moral sense of
the community Is not set against llicin.
The Irishman sees his condition In the
light of ilia Kilevnuccs, and makes the
worst of It.
. Still It Is possible that tho llngltsh
government Is not taking these piceiut
tlotis without a well founded tippichcn
slon that the slate of li eland Justifies
them. If hot-headed young Itlsltiuen
tire deluded by the example of the Roots
they are ptepailng themselves n heavy
retribution. Theie Is no puinllel In the
social, political or strategic position ot
'the. two coitnttles, The Uocis wcio an
Independent people nnd a military na
tion, and their fate should be a warn
ing. Thete Is tt gutilsun in li eland ot
over fotty thousand legulnr soldleis
nnd an aimed police establishment of
fouitoeii or Itftecu thousand men, not
to spook of n Hoot which In a few hours
steaming could elicumvallate the entire-
country with a wall of tuiieted
Iron. What ran a lehelllon, or any nt
tcnipt nt lehelllon, bring to a country
so situated, but n lotuantlc, If not a
ridiculous humiliation and Industtinl
ruin?
Nor aie the proceedings of the Itlsh
potllnineulury parly In Die House of

Neither the educated minds of Amoilen

the eyes of tho woild aie upon them,
but It Is less in admliatloii than In pity
that such an Immense amount of en

hibition, of political Inanity. Duilngthe
past twenty yeais li eland has not had
a week's lest. How can any countrv
make inuteii.il piogiess under such con
ditions? "Let them consider,"' wrote
Mnthew Arnold, one or the tiupst and

these new ideas and foices gain in
