THE EVENING WASHINGTON: SATURDAY, March 19, 1992. other paper ‘S paper and Advertising Medium it has no courpetitor. ‘The action of New York concerning electro- €ution is of much interest to the country gen- erally. It is safe to say that if this method of capital punishment is aliowed to stand in that state it will be generally adopted. If the author- ities decide, a8 is wow proposed in the state legislature, to return to hanging tue publie Prejudice against a departure from custom elsewhere will be encouraged. It has been argued with a good desl of earnestness that this use of electricity will throw a stigma over electrical interests in general, and electric light companies have been most persistent op- ponents of the electroci::ion But not all the electricians take this view of the matter. Ekectricity is of the sensible opinion that elec- tricity is no more affected in its use for other urposes by this use than the rope is ¥ its employment in execution by hanging. Eeectricity, in an editorial which may be cepted as unbiased as well #s intelligently formed, gives voice to the geners! impression that a return to banging would be a backward step toward barbarism. It say “The reports which have come to us through the daily press in regard to the electrical executions which bare already taken place go to show that death has been almost fustantancous in every case. While this has iby a few witnesses, almost all eded that loss of consciousness has followed immediately on the application of the current. The muscular action which bas been noticed cannot for a moment be attributed to |ny conscio: the part of the criminal. purel: action — ‘ roduced by applying a current to the Bares ata somaed viele bas bee Good fax some time; in fact a most vigorous lar ‘action can be set up ina dead body in this way. + © © On the other band, what is the case fin regard to the executions on the gallows? Here deeth seldom occurs under seven or eight nd it 1# sometimes delayed until twelve or fifteen, and it must be caused either by strangulation or by breaking the neck of the condemned. In the latter case couscicus- ness is lost almost immediately, and death is robably painless. In the case where it oceura Ey stranguiation, which it does. inmost in- stances, death takes place slowly, and con- sciousness is maintained for a period of sev- eral minates. Amn instance of thix may be re- called in the case of the Chicago anarchist Parsons, and no more revolting a ene can be jmagined than was his execution on the gal- Jows. ‘Zhe cap slipped from bis face, and tor three or four minutes bis #uffering was plamly depicted on his face and we Vivlent contortions. Contrast this with the Present mode of execution. and it seems that any question as to the desfrability between the two methods ean hardiy arise, and it appears to us that Mr. Stein im trying to repeal this act has allowed bis feelings of repugnance, under the impressions of the moment, tu get the bet- ter of bis calmer juégment.* - ee One of the finest possibilities of university minutes, extension in the United States is in the aid it Will give to ambitions workingmen. The Feder- ation of Labor, with perkaps other organi: tions of labor, bas, through the endeavors of some leading minds, undertaken to press the Amportance of the subject upon the people in- terested directly. Following Mr. Maguire's eloquent speech at the national conference of Bniversity extension the Philadelphia workmen ave started a movement looking to the estab- lishment of centers for the extension study f political economy. This course might well be supplemented by one on American and British history, second on the industrial oovemest from the most ancient, times to the Present, a third on sociology and perhaps a fourth on comparative politics, giving the origins of government and the progress of free institutions among the Arran peoples. Such Droad instruction would doagreat deal to solidify the just demands of labor and restrain ‘the impetuosity of the rasher but well-meaning spirita Iteannot failto have the effect of bringing labor and capital ton better under- Ptanding of the matters in ecntroversy between them. + The iong-expected resignation of Chancellor Caprivt bas taken place.

Our Paris azent, Mr. Henri Kaiser, unintentionally telis you the whole story in aletter to our buyer. He writes: ‘As J anticipated, bow-knotjlaces are again ereating a furore, as are Point d'Ireiande and Gene laces, in Whiteand Belge. You will and your early tmportations will help you, as prices have advanced 10 andl 15 per cent.” ‘The fashion journals but echo the sentiments of our ‘agent's Parisian experience. In fact so much is the coming (ace craze recognized that the New York Herald lately devoted a column to the subject.
