4 POSSIBLE CASE or ~scUrTLE.n

There can be no doubt as to the extreme diff
entity of the situation in which the COnserva-
tives are placed by the unexpected defeat of
Mr.. Gladstoncs Government. 1t is so full Of
pitfalls that surprise is warranted Mt the
determination Of Lord Salisbury to form Cab
met But the report that Mr.. Gladstone intends
to lead the Liberals in the coming campaign is
ant to lend substance to suspicion which IL
evidently gaining ground in London, and which
is calculated seriously to displcasc fair-minded
and scrupulous Liberals The statements to the
effect that Mr.. Gladstone really welcomed his
defeat and made no special effort to avert it,
coupled with the report that his Cabinet was
hopclessly discordant and on the verge OF dis
solution before the budget division was taken,
harmonic with the assertion that the late
Premier in effect invited the overthrow OF his
Government as n quiet and simple method Of
relieving himself from the entanglements his
foreign policy lad involved him in, and that he
calculated upon thus shifting the responsibility
unon the shoulders of the Conservatives, and
thus ayailing himself Of his Opposition attitude
to attack them for the measures he himself had
inaugurated.
At n general election the voters are apt
to hold the actual Government accountable Tor
all the ills the country is suffering from at the
time. Their political memories are short, and
the Opposition always has the great advantage
of irresponsbility. If Mr.. Gladstone has such
q programme in view, consequently, it mug
be admitted that it manifests characteristic
shrewdness, and if he can carry it out the posi-
ton of the Conservatives will evidently be full
of difficulty. But there is one important con-
sideration which seems to be completely left out
of view in this astnte partisan policy, and
that is, the interests of the country. 1t is pos
sible that by Sscuttlng" out of office at this
critical period Mr.. Gladstone may be able to
avoid the dangers to be apprehended from fac
ing the electorate with record sw arming with

medical prescription, and it is doubtful whether
such preca,tion could be taken in most cases.
OF course it is eminently desirable that people
should not commit suicide, but we are inclined
to think that the cases of suicide with these
poisons are after all very few in number, and 1t
Is open to question whether the inability to pro-
cure poison would ever save the life OF any man
who had made up his mind to kill himself.
There are great many possible means OF
self-destruction. Any hardware store can
supply a score of implements liable to be turned
to such uses, but it would hardly answer to put
the sale of pocket knives, carvers chisels, ana
so forth, under statutory limitations AS rule
when people buy rat poison or insect powder
they want 1t to kill rats or insects. If they had
to 60 through long ceremony in order to get
it, or to obtain physicians order, which would
cost money, the presumption is that the sale OF
these things would be seriously curtalled, and
It is certain that much annoyance would be ex-
perienced by the public There are, moreover
SO many commercial uses for various poisons
that if they arc all to be guarded in the same
way the embarrassment will be widespread.
Experience shows that when any one determines
upon suicide prevention Is exceedingly di:ilcult
even when constant vigilance can be exercised,
and therefore 1t seems probable that few In
tending suicides would really be stopped from
self-murder by keeping rat poison out of their
hands. Accidents rarely happen with such
preparations, because they are all labelled with
q notification of their dangerous character, and
so long as this precaution is enforced it does
not seem likely that much narm of prevent
able nature can come from the sale OF the
preparations in the usual way.

THE SALE or pUISDNS

Or. BARLEY, chemist of the Brooklyn Board of
Health, has called attention to the fact that
poisons are sold by the druggists under the
name of rat poison, insect powder, ETC. without
any precautions, and as it is reputed that some
of these preparations are used tor suicidal pur-
poses he recommends that the vendors be re-
quired hereafter to sell them in accordance with
the law governing the sale of poisons. Perhaps
this may DO rather difficult to do. The posons
used to kill vermin and insects are when en-
ployed lcgitimately not operated with under a
