It was higher in the South than in the North, in the West than i the East. In this city it was 5 for every 100,000. We have, how- ever, on that showing mo right to boast over the rest of the country. We have rather to reflect upon the significance of the further fact that the corresponding record of homi- cides in England and Wales was less than .9 for every 100,000. It will require but little study to discloge the cause of the difference in the rates. Laws for the punish- ment of murder are much the same in Great Britain and in all parts of the United States. So too are pro- cesses established for trial of per- sons accused of murder and for the punishment of those convicted. The one essential difference is that in Great Britain the laws are enforeed, the courts act promptly, trials follow swiftly upon arrest, and punishment upon conviction. In this country the records show that exactly in propor- tion as law is lax and courts are slow, so homicides increase in fre- quency. The lesson being plain, the moral |7 is plainer. We ean check the in- crease of murder just as soon as w» make would-be murderers know that punishment will he and swift. We can check it in no other way New York World. sure TAME COMES TO A FLORIDA BOY. 1t is pleasing to note that a Flor- ida boy, Calvert Smith, formerly art- ist on the staft of the Times-Union, but now living in Brooklyn, won the cover contest which is announced in the October issue of that publication The amount of the [ ‘ Thers several subsidiary pr prize was § were artist In the prize i the editors of the maw announcing | winneis vzine betat, tha ‘:;nnl snbjects were several thon submitted, istinction Smith 1y be the Vall (¢ e there which | canses the d achioved b i My ereater.
