Capt Howgate is very bad man, if half that
Is now said about him be true; and he ought to
be punished for all his misdeeds, when proven.
But even more than in his punishment is the

fOrgeries not be discovered until now. If the
admirable system of checks and balances" We

The news that the Swiss government has pro-
hibited the proposed meeting of the Interna-
tional Sociaste Council on the territory of
that republic. and peremptorily expelled the
Russian agitator, Prince Krapotkine, from
her borders, will not excite surprise in the
mind of those who keep careful watch of cur
rent events. The fact is Switzerland has lately
become so Oyerrun with nihists, communists,
regicides, petroleumers and dynamiters, who
flock to her neutral ground for the purpose of
Matching up conspiracies and sending forth their
bloody threats of assassination and general
destruction, that it has come to be a serious
question with the great powers of the continent
whether they will not some day quietly wipe
out her national existence and divide up her
territory among themselves as a measure of
seif-protectiOn, unless she takes some formal
action to prove that she does not sympathise
with that turbulent and dangerous element of
her population.
