BELONGED IN WALL STREET.

The death Of the Mexican bandit
Bernal brings to light some interesting
anecdotes concerning him. He was II
pious man and it was his habit to repair
to one Of the numberesS chapels in the
Sierras and remain for hours in prayer
before an image, after which he would
drop a $50 gold piece in the poor box on
leaving the oratory, The chronicler of
these virtues naively adds: "A few days
generally brought tidingS of some new
and daring exploit" Bernal was mfor-
tunate in his field Of operations, for re-
ward was offered for his capture dead or
alive and he was shot 10y party of hunt
ers. He evidently belonged in Wall
street, where charity and piety count
for much, and daring exploits do not
make man an outlaw.-I' iHsfed Press.

THE TRIAL OF THE JUDGMENT, A re-
view Of the anarchist cases, by Gen, M.
NJ. Trumbull Chicago: Health and
Home Publishing Co. (Pamphlet -
pages; price, - cents) This able cOntri-
button to the cause of justice should be
in the hands of every lover of truth, and
in every library in the land. 1t is a ter
rible arraignment OF the prosecution Of
the 50 called anarchists, and the charac-
ter and ability of its author is a guaran-
tee of the value Of the book. "Gener |
Trumbul has always been an opponent
Of the methods and principles of the
people known as anarchists, and especial
ly Of their theory of reform by physical
violence He is an honest advocate of
law and order, and as such believes that
judges and magistrates who violate the
law in their official capacity are more
guilty than ordinary deIinquents. Grin
nell, Gary, and their co-conspirators
have an account to settle, and the sooner
the people know the facts the sooner
will these arch criminals be brought to
justice. General Trumbull deserves the
heartfelt thanks of all honest citizens for
his righteous effort

5 so. A general criticism of the prac-
tees of the priesthood of the Roman
Catholic Church, denunciatory in the
extreme and containing statements that
should cause demand for public and
judicial investigation. The publishers
have issued an enormous edition, claimed
to be as high as BOO 900, under contract
with syndicate. Its contents, were
the book made in the commonest form,
and had it been printed in the quetest
manner possible, would have attracted
world wide attention, for it is brimful of
statements which, if true, should arouse
every citizen to the need Of some instan-
taneous action, and which, if untrue,
should condemn DIR. Fulton as one of the
worst men who ever wore the robes OF
clergyman" The publishers claim that
$40, 600 was offered for the suppression
of the book after it was found that the
law could not touch it on the ground of
obscenity, and that the author was re-
fused permission to speak in public halls
through the proprietors' fears. In Chi
cago recently the police prohibited lee
ture by him in order to prevent riot.
The various institutions connected with
the church in question should demand a
complete and thorough investigation and
State supervision, in order to relieve
themselves from the terrible charges
contained in this widely -circulated book.
As to the application of the title to the
work, it is rather obscure, the natural
conclusion one would come to being that
the conditions alleged to prevail should
be entirely changed, and that the great
evil to be combated is superstition,
which the author himself does not stem

powers. Birds, when surprised in the

lecturer said, also have this power.

The Twenty-frst legislature cannot,
any too soon after assembling, give titles
and relief to the purchasers of school
lands from the land board. The news of
the decision in the case of Martin VS.. Nc
Carly will travel fast. Texas is not the
only state that needs immigra ton. and if
people are taught to fear that they cam
not even secure titles to public lands
bought and paid for in Texas they will
give the state wide berth. We are told
that the land laws of Texas are not
framed to promote immigration but the
state should hasten to save the lmmigra-
ton that comes despite the land laws
Justice to the purchasers of the states
lands and consideration for its own in
terests demand prompt action of the
Twenty-first legislature. Immigration
bureaus and newspaper advertising are of
no avail in the face of mvalidated titles
to land bought and paid for.
