It is now three weeks since Con
gresham elect John NJ. Clayton was
brutally murdered in Arkansas, and
notwithstanding the fact that reward
Of ten thousand dollars has been offered
for the arrest of his assassins, they not
only are still at liberty, but are be-
lieved to be in the same county where
the crime was committed. There is
probably a score OF persons who know
the murderers, and could hand them
over to the officers Of tie law at any
moment, but they would not dare 10
do so, as they know the consequences
of the act. There is no doubt but the
murder of John NJ. Clayton was ap
proved by great part Of the people d
that section, who believe in the Demo
Gratis obtaining and retaining powel
by any means at their command L
these men are permitted to escape the
just penalty Of their dastarlly cline
the State of Arkansas will place ltsel
on record as being an accomplice II
this cowardly murder.

The returns published by the Swiss
Confederation with reference TO the de-
ye!opmtut of telephone communication
In Switzerland show that, since the estab-
lishment OF the first telephone in 1870,
sixty one towns hsve been provided with
them and there are now G9ii telephone
stations, Of which no fewer than 1890 are
In Geneva and its suburbs. Most OF the
Swiss towns are now connected with one
another, Geneva communicating not only
with Lausanne and other places On tie
shores of the lake, but with Berne, zu-
rich and ST. Gall.

We do not know the precise proyi.
sions of Mr.. Wtiieman's offensive aud
obscene placard bill which he has in
troduced into the Legislature, hut we
do think that il should be made very
explicit There will no doub, be a
great difference of opinion as TO what
constitutes IN offensive and obscene
placard, and therefore this part should
be very clearly defined. The bill pre-.
scribes penalties of from Il to s. fine,
or from to 30 days imprisonment &C
eording to the enormity OF the offense.
The same penalties are provided tor
posting placards on private property,
against the wishes OF the ewner, OF de
facing rocks, trc or fences with patent
medicine OF any o,hel kind Of udvei.
tisemengs. This pant Of the ill Is
easy enough to understand, but We
have no doubt that if it becomes a law
there will be considerable uoub.,
about the obscene plaeard part, ant
therefore it should be made very plan
before It is passed, il indeed it is passe.

The petition sent to the Legislature
in favor of State Insane Asylum was
signed by some of the most prominent
physicians OF this city and also OF the
State These gentlemen fully under
stand the great necessity which exists
for place where the insane OF this
State can be properly treated and
cared for without sending them to
other States.. some of the papers In
the lower counties oppose the project
on the ground that as medical experts
and skilled nurses would be needed 1t
would be too expensive, but we very
much question il the expense OF caring
for all would be any more than it is at
present to have part of these unfOr-
Inmates cared for in the institutions OF
Pennsylvania. New Castle county
has offered to sell the building a,
Hare's Corner to the State for So goo
which is at least $4,000 less than ii
cost, and as It is only question Of
time before the State will be compelled
TO have an institution OF this kind, it
should be purchased without delay.

The verdict in the case of the State
vs.. Taylor L. Cooley will no doubt
meet with the approval Of the public.
There Ia not the slightest reason to
suppose that the killing Of Harvey
Turner was "willful, intentional or
felonious." This young man acted
and violated the provi-
sions Of the act which makes the
pointing OF q fire.arm at another
misdemeanor, but it is scarcely to be
supposed that he knew ofthe existence
OF such law. The pistol was pointed
and snapped in jest, and we firmly he
lieve that had lie for one moment sup.
posed that it would explode, he would
o thousand times rather have pointed
it at his own head than at Turner. 1t
was indeed thoughtless act, and he
aud his family have the sympathies Of
every one who understands the case.
MIR. Nields conducted his defense in
mastery manner, and he was never
more In earnest in his life than when
he made his closing argument TO the
jury.
Attorney General Biggs and his dep
uty, Thomas Davis, had painful and
we doubt not an unpleasant duty 10
perform, and no one can censule them
fer the manner in which they conduct
ed the case in behalf OF the State.
They did nothing more than their
sworn duty, and had they done less
they would have failed to discharge
their duty. This is the first case that
has ever been before the courts of this
county under the statute making 1t a
misdemeanor, punishable with q fine
Or Imprisonment, for person to point
a firesrm at another. The statute also
provides that If the firearm should be
discharged and death result, the person
pointing it shall be deemed guilty OF
manslaughier. 1t is hoped that the
case of young Cooley may be warn
ing to others, and that as this is the
;n,sst, it will also be the last case OF the
kind that will ever be tried in our
courts.
