The Assassination Trial.

The American public ought to be capa-
BILE of understanding and approaching
that the horror, the grief, the Nation in
tears, the world in sympathy-that all the
unutterable pathos of the tragedy which
laid President Garfield in his grave-has
nothing to do with the duty now being
performed by the Criminal Court of this
District. The assassin cannot be tried
for numbering President. If his victim
had been John Smith, instead of James
A. Garfield, the case would not have been
changed in any respect SO far as the law
and the court are concerned. The life of
Guiteau is trivial thing enough COM
pared with the greater issues of this
trial. 1t was national disgrace-a
great loss and sorrow to have President
murdered. 1t would be an inefiable dis
grace to this Nation if, in obedience to
the clamor of cranky" press, the as
sassin were rushed through a mock trial
and executed without chance for de-
fense. Judge Cox is doing the country
great service in giving this wretch all
that the law allows him.
