THO Anarchists Convicted.

ing for the blood OF the anarchists or any

erection of single school house than

the time may soon come when 1t VIII DC
deemed safe for society to substitute some
other punishment for that which Is now the
extreme penalty of the law.
But II there ever was case In which OF
ganizod society was fully justified In put
ting its enemies to death such justification
exists In the case Of the Chicago anarchists
who were yesterday convicted OF murder In
the first degree. Failure to convict aud
punish these miscreants would have been
accepted as a reimbursement Of their dia-
bolioal creed and damnable practices. The
Jury that rendered the verdict Of "gullty'
was charged with an almost immeasurable
responsibility. Every citizen OF the United
States had a vital interest in the result oil
the trial Had these murderers escaped
conviction the red flag would have

the dangerous elements OF our heterogene
Gus population would have been encouraged

THE NAVAL CRUISERS.
The Naming OF Them Controlled bl
Law.

The question of naming the additional naval
cruisers for the construction Of which pro-
posals will soon be called, is controlled by
law. The i,5CO.ton vessels will, in accordance
with this law, be rated as first rate, and
therefore will be named after the states The
cruisers of less than 45OO tons ore second rates,
and will be named after cities, towns, or rivers

COMPLIED with by the former administrations
The Chicago Is n first rate cruiser and yet sue
was named after city aud not state. The
law In regard to the naming of vessels does not
meet with favor in naval circles, The officers
of the navy think that the naming OF new yes
sels should he directed to perpetuating the
fame of vessels and men who figured promi-
nently in naval warfare. They also think that
there are many Indian names which could be
