CT the American woikingmanf
The man who processes to believe that,

plea, then, is preposterous and absurd
the only plea remaining is that the in

Many Of these Industries are PRO

most fifty per cent 1t costs the peopl,

only one.third is required by the Govern

The question is, can this enormous taS

The next question Is. does it really
support the industriesq
Are not these benehciarles lying and

absurdites in denying ihese propositions.
Mr.. Hastings, for instance, seems to
think that goods which can be exported
and sold at a profit still need proteo-

will appear before the committee to ven

STATE. LAW AND SOCIETY.

THE verdict Of the Cronin jury has
been brought in. 1t meets more uni
versal approval than any important YER
dict since the verdict against the anarch-
lists In these days Of mawkish sentiment,
superficial education and culture 1t is
very difficult to procure capital punish
ment, even for the most heinous crime in
the catalogue. Many people, for reasons
best known to themselves, often, for no
sufficient reason whatever, become so
deeply interested in the criminal that
they lose sight of the crime, its effects,
and Of the demands Of society and Of the
law that tho criminal shall be prevented
from further crime and punished for that
which he has already done.
As matter Of fact. the criminal ia al
outlaw, and after the crime shall have
been established, be has no rights what
ever. He has forfeited citizenship.
But there is sentiment prevailing,
affecting juries because it affects the
community. which demands that every
criminal shall be spared. There will b,
many petitions, many delegations to tn,
Governor, and various efforts Of othe
kinds to save these men, Coughlin, Burke
O'Sullivan and Kunze from the conse
quence Of their crime. Yet there wa
never fouler, more inexcusable,
more cold-blooded murder ever commit
ted than that Of Dr. Cronin.
The Clan ms Gael condemned him TO |
removed" and appointed men to deco
and murder him in order that he coul
not expose them. It is a pity that IL
law cannot extend its clutches to incluc
those who attended the trial and osdert
the murder
But it is well to have secured so muc
and the benefit Of it is that it is motto
TO the Clan na-6ael that the law and s
ciety are supreme in this country al
that an edict of removal from gang
political outlaws is murder and that Il
murderers must be punished
In that view the verdict Of the Cron
jury is a victory for the State, the la
and for society.

Mr.. WASHINGTON HASTINGS keeps a
curious stock Of crochets and misinfor.
nation stored away In his imagination.
Mr.. Bent Of the Pennsylvania Steel Com
pany said give me free ore and | viii
sell steel rails in England Mr. Hastings
replied that Mr.. Bent could not have been
guilty Of such treason to protectionism
and that he was mistaken anyhow. Mr.
Bent replied. confirming his previous
statement, and now Mr. Hastings bobs
up with the perfectly inane ques-
tion as to what Mr. Bent would do
If Congress we're TO give him free
steel railsf Think Of the condition Mr.
Hastings's mind must be in to imagine
that Mr. Bent would be in deplorabie
condition if he could pay "a per ton
freight and still undorsell the mills Of
England with American rails Mr. Bent
being enabled to sell steel rails in the
United States with the profit he wishes
and $4 per ton additional for
freight, would not need much pro
lection. Now. Mr.. Hastings, as we
said before is too amiable a little gentle
man to commit himself to such absurdi-
ties. He can furnish backbone but not
protectionist letters to the Morning
News. He should let the editors Of the
News retain their private and comprehen-
sive proprietorship on absurdities.

TO lEaALlzs BRIBERY.

1t would be we'll to inquire what the
Republican machine Is asking for now.
AS matter Of fact they have secured
the registration of an enormous and un-
reasonable number Of negroes. This has
been done, as has been pointed out from
time to time by the public journals, in
such a manner as TO show that bold and
aggravated frauds we're committed.
The number OF names, 5000, on the
list is an indubitable evidence Of fraud.
The daily journals have published also
frequent accounts Of the manner in which
the tax receipts were procured to fit these
names
committee on bribery has been sit-
ting in the Askew Building to which dis
reputable and venal negroes and worse
white men were invited for the purpose
Of obtaining money to pay for receipts.
Leaving the question Of this open and
notorious bribery without comment, the
evidences obtained from those who came
to pay their taxes have been sufficient to
condemn and convict any party Of whole
sale bribery.
Boys have been sent to represent vo-
ters, men have been sent who did not
know the names under which they were
to procure a receipt, felons fresh from
Jail have been sent, men have come who
were so conscience. struck that they fled
at the least suspicion OF detection, the
negroes have come in blocks-of.fve, with
the exact change in their hands and under
the leadership Of white men who are no
torious for the practice Of every art and
scheme Of chicanery known to the ward
hummer and vote procurer-men who for
years have done nothing but disreputable
political work.
Such is the situation. The Republican
managers have filed the assessment lists
with hundreds, perhaps thousands, Of
bogus names, they have procured all tn,
receipts that they think they can safely
procure by bribing men to take money tc
the Office and in proper person secure 1
receipt
What next2 is their question. Why
afidavits Of imaginary and bogus ne
groes2
II they can obtain receipts they will
end negroes TO fit them. That is th'
meaning Of this mandamus business.
It has been proven, time and time again
that any man may pay his taxes. Their
is no question about this, but that is no
what the Republican managers want
Their demand, in plain terms, Is tina
they may have an opportunity, under th
} color Of law, to bribe and control not onl
} the entire legitimate negro vote, bu
: enough receipts to control the election.
The various subterfuges under whic
: these shameless outrages have been con
8 mitted and under which the more r.
a spectacle men Of the Republican part
z seek to justify them are too patent I
need special exposure.
e The pretense that they wish TO fill Il
y county treasury is false. The pretenl
q that an honest man who wishes to vol
ie cannot obtain a tax receipt is also falls
e 1t is disproved every day. The plea thi
q lazy negroes cannot afford to lose IL
time to pay their taxes and can afford
4 lose the time TO vote is frivolous.
e The Republican managers are attemp
3 ing to legalize and to palliate bribery.
d That is all there is in this whole sgit
y ton.
