friends and acquaintance. who, while
innocent, have been subjected to the ex-
pense, the annoyance. and the risks of
criminal trial. No one who has fol-
lowed the testimony can suggest that
the prosecution was undertaken in
spirit of wantonness by the state, or
without reasonable prospect of secur-
ing their conviction. Appearances
were at first very much against them.
and, although they have been finally ex-
onerated, it has only been after hard
contest. which must have caused them
much anxiety and shame if they are
ordinarily decent citizens. And for
their distressing predicament they have
themselves alone to blame. Had they

ations suggestive OF wrong-doing, they
would have been spared all the trouble
to which they have been exposed.
Here, too, is the moral. 'Nine-tenths
of the crimes which are ventilated
in our courts owe their origin
to no intention of violating the
law, but to reckless gratiflca-
ton of the spirit Of adventure. Fairly
respectable men fiddle themselves with
few glasses of beer or whisky and
start out to have good time. They
visit places which are Objectionable and
talk with people of low character. They
do not purpose engaging in any actual
sin, but they want to do something
which is unusual and different from
their ordinary experiences. Very fire.
quently they get through the occasion
unscathed, and with no more serious
consequences than headache the next
morning and a fit of remorse. But
every once in while they find them
selves involved in a crime or the APP
pearance of one, with all that this i'm
plies. The GLOBES inference from the
abduction case is that it pays to keep

THE TILDEN WILL.

The decision handed down yesterday
by the New York court of appeals in
| the TILDEN will case was very re-
markable chapter in the history of Iiti-
| CATION. Mr.. TILDEN undertook to leave
a large part of his great wealth for the
endowment Of certain institutions which
he calculated would accomplish a pub
lie benefit. 1t has now been finally de-
cided that his purpose cannot be real
lied because the methods he attempted
to follow were legally impossible. In
other words. in the Judgment Of the
tribunal of last resort, this great states
mans will is pronounced invalid, and
his estate is left for disposition as
though he had died intestate.
Mr.. TILDEN himself was a lawyer
of much experience. acuteness and
strength. He had no especial reputa-
ton as an advocate, but in the sub
tleties Of the profession and in the

STATE SENTIMENT.

Another poor fellow gets his neck
stretched to-day at Fergus Falls, and
there was nO more positive evidence
against him than there was against
Rose. who was inhumanly killed at Red
Wood Falls. We hope Goheen may not
be made to suffer so, though If another
Dungling hanging should bring public
sentiment to demand the abolition of
capital punishment, he would suffer, as
did Rose, IN good cause.--Foot Prints.
The Press is opposed to capital pun
ishment for cases where convictions are
made on purely circumstantial evidence.
The highest penalty for such cases
should be Imprisonment for life. The
next legislature will do well to so amend

THE EFFECT OF 1T.

When Indiana, Ohio and Pennsylvania
held state elections the month before
the presidential voting. they often vir-
tually settled the general contest in ad
vance. The great struggle was to carry
the doubtful states in October. They
always went the same way in Novem-
Der. The voting this year in Ohio. New
York, Massachusetts and Iowa will have
much the same relation to the presi-
dental contest that the old October
states had. Perhaps Pennsylvania
should be included, although the con-
test there is chiefly waged on state
questions, as it is quite largely
in New York. The Democrats are
the beneficiaries in Pennsylvania
and the Republicans in New York
of the local questions. New York
will be stronger for the Democrats on
the national issues. with the conditions
reversed in Pennsylvania. The Repub-
licanS must carry all of these states next
Tuesday to give them reasonable conf
dence in the national contest. If New
York is against them they cannot afford
TO lose Ohio. Massachusetts, Iowa or
Republican presidents steadily. Should
these three desert them, where are the
states that can be set down in the safe
column? Michigan will be equally di-
vided; Wisconsin, Rhode Island, New
Hampshire and Illinois have voted
against the party, and must be con-
ceded to be doubtful. Indiana will
hardly be claimed by any Republican;
and outside of Vermont, Maine and
some small states out towards the Pa
cifie, where are the reliables? The vot-
ing next week may have good deal to
do with the location of the Republican
national convention. If the contested
states are lost, the pressure will be
great in favor of holding the convention
in Ohio or Illinois. There may, now
ever, be too many doubtful states, and
the expiring effort conceded to the far
ther West.

THE SUGAR ROUNTy

The Offset to the free sugar business
is beginning to show up. Those who
want bounties for their product are
reachiug out toward the treasury. In
Louisiana one man has been paid Sc, 700
and another $4,000. These are not the
large ones, either. One plantation will
receive S150,000 and many of them sums
that add handsome margins to their
profits. OF course the owners of these
plants are wealthy, but that does not
diminish their Willingness to be paid
two cents pound bonus for pro.
ducing sugar. The treasury officials
have estimated the cost of the
bounties for all kinds of sugar
at s10,000,000. Their antcipations NAV
be. not far out of the way as regards
cane and maple, but the indications are
that beet sugar will far outruu all ex-
peetationS, and some new process is
claimed to give sorghum something of a
boom. One beet factory in California
promises to produce 100000 pounds,
for which the government will present
it bounty of 100000. This beet sugar
production, it is predicted, is to grow
until the consumption of the country is
substantially, if not entirely met. The
experts allege that it will be confined
mainly to California and limited regions
elsewhere that have the soil and climate
best adapted to the growth of the varie-
ties of beet desired, and with the most
favorable conditions for the manufact-
IRE of sugar. 1t will be insisted then
that the bounty must be perpetuated or
the duties restored. The free sugar
then will be a delusion. The growers
of corn. wheat and other products will
ask for ali explanation why they should
not have a bounty also, and who can
convince them that they have no such
claims?

this country. 1t was produced before
the tariff, and ii was raised 100 per cent.
There is no increased cost to the pro-
duction. he wages of the working
men have not been raised. The pig, or
block tin. is imported because the home
mines are not affording supply,
but there is no duty on the ore
till July, 1898. If this roofing tin was
made under the old duty there was no
occasion to raise the tariff. except to
enlarge the profits of the manufacturer.
Not sheet of tin for commercial use
of American production is in the mar
ket. The schemers. like the st. Louis
congressman. worked the tin business
in the tariff for speculation. They
had the operation of the duty deferred
a year so that they could import enor-
nous quantities of tin plate to hold for
the rise when the duty came in force.
The profits realized in this way
amounted to millions, all at the expense
of the consumers. 1t was an imposition
and fraud.
