CROWDED CITY.

live in tenement houses, which are de-

In the summer the crowding extends
out onto the sidewalks. A small room

crime and disease are fostered like an
industry protected by measly prohib-

when it has room to spread out into
accessible rural districts. Chicago and
Philadelphia are favored in these re-
spects, aud also in the related fact that
the mass of the people own their houses,
especially in the Eastern city. There
ought to be room in this country for all
without much crowding.

1t Is q Silly Law,

New York Herald.
Attorney General Clapp, of Mime
sofa, has written an opinion declaring
that the new state law which forbids
newspapers to describe the execution
of criminals is unconstitutional. Albert
Bulow was hanged at Little Falls yes
terday, and all the newspapers decided
to ignore the statute and print detailed
reports.
There is no doubt that the law re-
Gently passed by the New York legis-
lature prohibiting the publication of
anything more than bare mention of
an execution will be met in the spirit
which it deserves. Such law is puer
lie, fanatical and direct attempt to
abridge the liberty of the press.
If there is any matter of public inter
est concerning which newspapers
should have the largest freedom, it is
capital punishment, and the best criti-
ciSm of an execution is a faithful &C
count of it. Were it not for the de-
tailed stories of former executions pub
lie sentiment would not have been
aroused against hanging, and the COM
mission which recommended death by
electricity would never have been APP
pointed.
1t is perfectly clear that if cranky
legislators have the right to prevent
the press from giving facts about the
judicial death of murderer in the in
terest of morality and order they also
have the right to suppress reports of
his trial in court for the same reasons.

SICK THEIR OWN MEDICINE

A good many Republican papers are
getting out of humor with the sugar
trust, and propose to sacrifice even
their great principle to annoy it. They
want congress to make big reduction
in the tariff on sugars, and make the
figures the smallest on refined sugar,
although this is an American industry
that should have the fostering hand of
the government. They insist that the
watering up of the s2O,0OO,000 to $780,
100000 last year, with good dividends
and S1O.0O0.OO0 surplus, indicates all in
dustry that is emerging from the in
fantile stage. One of them even admits
that high tariff Ion any article of
which we do not produce the bulk, con-
sumed athome, tends to mOnopolize the
article in few hands and stif1e competi-
tion." There have been limitations Of
that sort in tariff reform papers before.
Hopeful progress is being made in the
educational work. The trusts are great
teachers.

There is evidently a strong feeling
throughout the country against increas-
ing the membership of the house, and
many strong reasons for it. Should the
same number be retained as basis for
the next house, and the total popula-
ton of the country foot up to 65,000,000,
as expected, the ratio of representation
will be 100000. On this basis New
York will lose four, Ohio and Pennsyl-
