The situation tod: urs altogether a aiffere no mes ‘There serious divisions, indeed, among them. The popullsts in many of the states are refusiy ar but who after News and Advertising | | i tend ting in good trim, and the gold democrats, so far from changing base as the result of 4 protection tariff bill, are preparing to ver as strongly this year as they ast. In Ohio, in Iowa, in Kentucky, in Me and, and in New York, democrats who last year refused to support the policy of free coinage will this year as firmly take the same stand. Instead of a walk- ever, therefore, upon which a few months #0 SO many silver men were counting, the tes now before them a contest altogether worthy of the issue. The country is to be congratulated on this change in the situation. It means that as long as free silver remains a menace, the forces which last year rallied to defeat it will keep the field, and may be relied upon to co-operate again when the mergency arises to protect the credit of the government. The gold democrats are not going to return to what the Eryan demo s call “the fold.” In fact, they that they never have left the fold, but are today the custodians of the only political faith which truly may be called cemocratic. So that, with this division among the democrats widening and,harden- ing, and the poy in revolt against democratic dictation, the republicans and the money democrats have but to stand together and be active to administer to free silver another stinging knock-down. Another knock-down this year, and a third r, would make a free silver cum- sound ign in 1900 impossible. > +o —___ Artistic School Houses. y Gage’s efforts to improv public architecture ef the nacion mi followed with good results by the authorities in the matter of the schools and other buildings devot municipal purposes. ‘There has in the been too little attention paid to the artis- tie details in planning these the sole inspiration of w sn the economy of space and mon result is the appearance thr great red briek bloc tive pount of produce a wholly rent effect and would td atly to beauty of the city.

The crime committed by Martin Thorn in New York, which is now being steadily unravelled, stands as one of the most atro- ciously brutal on record. The criminal | seems to have been utterly devoid of hu- mane instincts. He killed his man after They were even calcu- | plotting so shrewdly that the victim had no chance whatever for his life and then ats who had voted | he proceeded with diabolical cunning to | dispose of the body. In some measure the of the Dingley bill wouid | murderer was uncommonly clever. He de- | vised a method of disposing of the head of his victim that is without parallel for in- senuity. But he made a fatal blunder in + forces are by | neglecting to provide for the permanent are some very | jisappearance of the other portions of the corpse. Had he weighted these securely it is likely that the crime would never have been discovered. He erred, too, in confiding to a friend, whose conscience has proved unequal to the strain and whose disclosure betrayed the criminal to the police. Thorn illustrates a type of criminality that ts commonly met with. His abnormal mind is keen to a certain point. The murderous instinct, which undoubtedly existed, carried with it In him the ability to plot shrewdly for concealment but {ts very abnormality caused the unadjusted brain to leave un- done the things that the normal mind would have foreseen to be absolutely neces- sary for success. This, perhaps, is the rea- son why so small a percentage of crimes remain uncovered. It is fortunate for so- clety that the equation, so to speak, pre- vails. It is interesting to learn from a prominent German educator of the me- tropolis that Thorn came from a section of Germany that is famous for producing criminals, and particularly of the blood- thirsty type to which Thorn evidently be- longs. This centers in the hamlet of Bud- zin, in Posen, in the north-eastern part of the empire. The country is cut up by small stagnant streams tributary to the Vistula that give the atmosphere a most unwholesome character. The dwellers in this region are called Water Poles, and are known as about the toughest folks in Eu- rope. ‘The men, it is said, are largely char- acterized by low cunning, treachery and deception. It seems that Thorn’s crime is singularly like several that have Leen committed in Posen within a few decades. —__ + + = ____ It would be about as cicse to lese majeste as it is possible to come without touch- p 20c.
