PREVENTION BETTER THAN CURE.

The great problem for England Is not how she can
catch the few dynameurs that are now giving her such
trouble but she reform her laws and customs
as to make such people impossible OF existence 1t Is
some inherent injustice In the system after all that
evolves this class OF destructionists and that s the
ground on which British statesmen must work This Is
no hint at any for the crimes OF yesterday Ii Is
simply pointing out way that England must follow II
expects to her government or her govern
houses In the future What England wants s pre-
xenfinn rather than cure of these crimes
