/ which can only be pronounced criminal in con-
nection with secret conspiracy in which they
were conformity engaged That it is not
homeless undertaking is shown by the success
of the prosecution in the Molly Mcguire trials
in PENNSYLVANIA and in the IIaymarket muir
ders in Chicago.
The burden of proof for the prosecution will
consist in the establishment of the conspiracy
Itself. and in connecting each OF the prisoners
with il SO clearly a. to involve the presumption
Of individual, As well as collective, response
bility for the murder. 1t is plain that this
cannot he done through the testimony OF SPIES
and informers alone, but that recourse must
also be had to States evidence. One or moro
Of the consprators will undoubtedly be called
upon g. reveal the secrets of the murderouS IN
tIigue and to establish the connection OF tho
others, not only with the events OF the laSt
night Of DIR. Cronin's life, but also with the
fol nation and gradual development of the plot.
That such evidence is in reserve may safely
be inferred from the bodneSs and directness
Of tho opening address. Judge Longenecker
diSclaimed any intention of putting the Clan
na-Gael on trial, but he framed an indictment
against that order which could only have been
ppSoCSoipi- "'SO'NNN
of it's secret history. As he accepted personal
responsibility for his startling statements re-
specting " the Triangle" and the faction feuds
and camp intrigucS OF the Clan-na-Gael, it may
be presumed that he has witnesses at hand who
can be depended upon to betray the secret pro-
ceedingS of the order. The value of such evil
dence, against which juries invariably display
a marked prejudice, remains to be established.
Unless all signs fail, the prosecution has made
laboIious and determined effort to reach the
bottom Of the infamous conspiracy which re-
suited in the murder of DR.. Cronin. There is
no evidence of weakness or vacillation in the
opening of the case for the State. Everything
betokens courage, thoroughness of preparation,
and an inheXible purpose to unmasL one of the
most eXccrable murder plots ever formed in
America. The prosecution will have the I'M
divided support of public opinion in its arduous
undertaking. and the proceedings of the trial
will be followed with eager interest through
out the country. No case of equal Importance
in its relations to secret organizations has come
before the courts since the abOrtive proceedings
against MOrgan's murderers.

A man was elected to the Kentucky Legislature
few wears ago from one of the back counties
in the southeastern part of Kentucky. lie was a
fnc-loolting and apparently intelligent man, and
his colleagues expected much Of him. One day
when they had been in session about two weeks he
arose, and, after well-timed and conservative
remarks, begged leave to introduce bill requiring
the manu- facturers Of firearms 20 increase the cali
bre OF their sporting rifles and make all cartridges
at least six inches in length He said his con-
sttuents demanded it, and il he failed to get
the bill through he did not think he would go
back. His people very conservative, he cx-
planned, but they had got their hearts set on q
slightly larger calibre.
In Harlan County, since the opening Of hos
tilities men who formerly carried gun now
appear with two, while the more prominent and
influential citizens who have always affected
two, now appear with three. That conservative
member OF society who has never gone about
with less than three has not increased the num-
her, but there is an extra knife in his boot.
The back counties of Kentucky would be an cX-
cellent place for a student who was interested

That il tends to shorten life seems clear, though
in cases where the particular subject is an eX-

eastern Kentucky is perhaps the only part OF
this country where man who appears in pubic

be united and that her citizens can overcome
their habit of shooting at every man they see

carry on its good work among her citizens TILL

TIE CITIZENS TICKET.

No issue could be more clearly dawn than
that which presents itself to the voter of this
city in the pending municipal election. Two
tickets have been placed in the field. and only
two. One stands for Tammany Hall. II means
whatever Tamniany means to the taxpayer Of
NewYork. 1t means servile obedience On the
mart Of public officials to the worst kind of DO
6tical despotsm. 1t represents the principle
than which none could be more hateful to a
people within whom is lodged the right Of
self government, that one man, scf-placed in
authority, unrestrained by responsibility, may
of himself, by himself and for himself decide
and effectively declare who shall hold Office in
the city of Newly DIRK This is the function of
the boss of Tammany Hall. 1t is he and the
little cotere of miserable politicians who sur
round him to whom the voters Of New York
are desired to pay tribute 1t is he and his like
who assume TO control our courts and all our
municipal affairs. Our function as citizens is
Ia pay the taxes. His function as boss is to
spend them in the interest of Tammany Hall.
Opposed to this ticket and all that it stands
for is one which has been nominated by the
people freely and openly. 1t means just eX-
actIy the opposite Of all that is meant by the
TammaDy ticket. 1t is presented by no one

THE RFPTBLIC1NS BOUND TO YIN.
We believe that Whiskey's Governor is beat
on. We believe that the ticket which he forced
upon the Syracuse Convention against the pro-
test of large number of the most sagaciOuS
and influential of the delegates is going to be
repudiated by the honest voters OF the state.
THE TRIBUNE, as our readers know IS not
given to oyeroniidence But in predicting
victory for the Republicans Of Newly DIRK on
November we ale not holding out false hopes.
We assure our friends in the interior that the
shrewdest and most experienced observers
hereabouts agree that we are going to win {;
we assure them that the advices which reach
us from the district leaders in all sections of
the State also warrant the conclusion that this
is a Republican year.
Why should it not be so? The Republican
ticket is strong clean, unassailable al all points
The Democratic ticket has proved disastrous
blunder. Honest Democrats will not support
it, They cannot be dragooned into cOndOning
the infamous Assembly ceiling fraud. They
realize that since the days of Tweed there has
been no such brazen attempt to debaSe the
public service as that which was made when
Wemple ard Tabor were named for second
term. The distinction with difference be-
tween the two tickets is one which is gaining
votes for the Republicans every day.
That Hill himself realizes that the Demo
cratic canvass is in a desperate condition is
, evident. What has he been doing in this city
during the week? Why, it is an open secret
| that he has been here to milk the saloons
| He knows that his pape- mache ticket is grow

ingly, desrairing of carrying New-Yor by fail
means, he naturally falls back upon a cOrrup
ton fund. 1t is eminently fit that the boss who
placed the paper- mache ticket in the field
should endeavOr to compass its election by
means Of hard cash. The Republicans base

men whom they have made their candidate.

you cannot fail.

TILE CRONIN TILL

The prosecution in the Cronn murder trial
has taken the broadest possible ground in open
ing the case 1t undertakes to prove a DELHI
crate conspiracy for putting DR.. Cronin to
death; and contends that all the consprators
are liable to punishment for murder Judge
Longeneckcr, the States Attorney, presented
the theory Of conspiracy with lucidity and
startling simplicity. He held that every ind-
yidual act in the development and final eNecu-
tioD of the udcrous design bound each and
every one of the cOnspratOrs. One man might
have rented the Carlson cottage, another might
have made the contract with Dr. Cronin. and
still another might have hired the house: but
under the conditions of conspiracy all were re-
sponsible for what each had done. Accessories
were according to this view, equally guilty
with the principals who actually killed DIR.
Cronin. Some of those accessories might have
been a thousand miles away on the night Of the
murder, but if they were engaged in the CON
spiIacy at any stage they were TO be held ac-
countable for every act from the hiring of the
cottage to the dumping of the manged body
in the catch basin These positions are all
well intrenched in law but it is always most
difficult TO convince a jury of their duty to
avoid discriminating between principals and
accessories in a murder case. The prosecution
has undertaken most formidable task in Sc
curing the conviction of the indicted group,
since with possibly one or two exceptions the
prisoners have committed subordinate acts
