ppoTECyJON AGAINST INSANE ASSASSINS

The bill respecting the disposition to be made
of persons acquitted of murder on the ground
90 insanity which was drawn by Henry L..
Clinton. and has just been introduced into the
IogisIature merits careful consideration. As
tho law now stands the prisoner may, if the
court considers il unsafe to allow him TO 20 at
large, order him to be committed TO an insane
asylum "unti he becomes sane" The law pro-
posed by Mr.. Clinton proceeds upon different
principlc. Under its provisions, when person
is acquitted of murder on the ground OF INSANITY
he must in every case. be confined IN the state
Lunatic Asylum from ten to twenty years, and
until it shall be proved in the manner provided
bv law that the defendant has been restored to
sanity" The only way that such prisoner
could be released within the time mentioned
would be by the Governors order after twcnty
days' n. tice tn the proper District-Attorney.
This may at first glance seem like harsh
measure To keep a man in confinement IN an
asylum for perhaps several years after he has
bcen restored to reason for acts committed while
insane will appear TO some unustifable. But
the most cr,rsory review of the history Of cap
ital cases in this State for period OF twenty
five years will lie sufficient to remove that i'm
preston from lUlcillSeHt UUlluN' II % Hiih ~ ~
insane as not to lie legally responsible for his
killing of another person, ten years is not too
long time to insure cure of his malady that
will make impossible a recurrence OF the act.
Al all events, if such extraordinary cases do
arise. the provision permitting the interference
Of the Governor affords ample protection against
any instance Of grievouS hardship.
But il is chiefly against the bogus defence
of insanity in capital cases that this statute Is
directed. Every one at all familiar with the
annals of our criminal courts is aware that the
number Of instances is very large whore murder
has been deliberately planned and carried out
with the purpose constantly in mind OF using
the defence Of insanity rs q means of acquittal.
The ridiculous length to which this defence has
at times been carried. as where, for instance
the prisoner has been found by jury sane i'm
mediately before and after, but insane at the
moment of the killing, has led to several re-
forms Of the criminal statute law in attempts TO
correct the abuse. \ number of recent cases
have shown that these safeguards are still in
sufficient. They should be strengthened by a.
statutory declaration that an acquittal Of the
charge Of murder on the ground OF insanity does
not mean the possibility OF speedy repetition
Of the same offence by the same individual ;
that any insane man who has killed another is
not a safe person 10 be at large for at least ten
years. If every excitable and unprinciplcd man.
every hystciical and eviminGed woman, knew
at the moment Of aiming the fatal shot at his
or her victim that acquittal OF murder for in
sanity meant n long term of confinement in
lunatic asylum. it would act rs a deterring force
second only to the fear of the halter or imprison-
ment for life.

New-York tribune., 1891-02-18
THE PROPOSED UAWAIIAN CABLE.


Excellent reasons exist apart from those that
have political bearing for the action taken by
the Senate on Monday appropria,ng $50 600
to aid in the construction Of a cable to the
Hawaiian Islands. In 1889 our trade with the
islands amounted to 50 per cent Of all its i'm
ports and 81 per cent of all its exports, repre-
sen,ing total commerce of about Sl9, 600, 900.
Fully two-thirds of this business was done in
American ships, and nearly all the rest of It in
vessels owned in Hawaii. 1t increased in 1S89
over -, 900 600, and fully as great an increase
will be reported for the last year. Looking at
the proposed cable merely as an aid and pro-
lection to this commerce, il becomes of great
importance. and National assistance in construct
Ing it is fully justified. 1t has been pointed out
that by far the greater part of our commerce
with Hawaii is in imports, and that the effect
of our Reciprocity Treaty is merely to give the
islanders free market for their products with
out in any way promoting the sale to them of
our own
This would be material but for the fact that
the capital invested in the islands is chiefly
American capital. The sugar and lice panta-
tons arc principally owned in this country or
by Americans living there. Many of the man
ufacturinc interests of Honolulu, the street-car
company the electric-lightng plant, the irriga-
ton company, and other business associations
and properties, are controlled by Americans.
So that iii facilitating trade with Hawaii we
are not merely promoting the interests of an
Independent people, but, in principal degree, are
taking care of our own. This is wise as well
rs prudent.
The political consideration in everything that
