BERKMAN BEHIND THE BARS.

TWENTY-FIVE years for Berkman who at

archist is where he will do the most good
NeiO York Recorder.
TWENTY-FIVE years of imprisonment may
prove to be life sentence for Berkman,
but if not he should be put under surveill-
ance when he comes to be released.-Ph5lo-
delphia Ledger.
BERKMAN, the Anarchist assailant of Mr..
Frick, gets twenty-five years imprison-
ment, but the Democratic editors whose
abuse of Frick is responsible for Berkman's
deed are allowed to run at large-St. Louis
Globe Democrat.
No one will regret the sentence against
Berkman, who attempted to assassinate
Frick. Such men as he do more harm than
good to the cause of the workingman, and
should be placed where they can do the
least tmischief.-Ch,cago Globe.
BERKMAN will not be remembered, as he
seems to think, among the men who have
sacrificed everything for principle, but will
soon be forgotten, as other cruel and dan
gerous criminals are after they pass within
penitentiary walls.-C eveland Leader.
To proclaim ones self an Anarchist is not
a popular policy nowadays. Everyone
breathes easier when the penitentiary doors
close upon such person. Whether Berk-

Dispatch
THE sentence imposed upon Berkman will
be generally commended, Twenty-Five
years confnement In the penitentiarv Is
equivalent to q life sentence. There in no
safety for any community which tolerates
assassination by dealing leniently with as
sassins. Philadelphia Record
JUSTICE is to be congratulated on its vic
tory in the sentence of the Anarchist assail-
ant of Mr.. Frick. 1t is not whit too severe,
for 1t is time that salutary lesson was given
to these enemies of society; and, yet, 1t Is
leniency, compared to their own summary
Observation-Disclosures American.
BERKMAN's condemnation was a foregone
conclusion. The crime was committed in
open daylight, in the presence of witnesses.
The attempting assassin was caught red
handed, and his identity was never for
moment questioned. No possible plea of
self.d could be set up.-New York Sun.

tainty. Let the country know whether it
is little protection or great deal of pro-
lection that is unconstitutional; whether
Democracy is rank free trade, or modi-
fled free trade, or no free trade at all. The
appeal from the politicians at the con-
vention to the politicians sober casts
great deal of doubt on this question; but
till we hear from the candidate we cannot
be certain whether the party is going back
on its own platform.

MADE A KING IN TENNESSEE.

An African Potentate Summoned Home to
Take Charge of His Realm.
NASHVILLE, Sept. M.-Nashville has a real
live king who has just been called to his
home to mount the throne and restore order
from the chaos now prevailing in his realm.
The kings name is Momolu Massaquoi, and
his country is Vey, which adjoins Liberia in
West Africa.
Momolu has been here for two years past
attending college, securing Christian edu-
ca tion, and is 20 years old. He has just re-
ceived letters stating that his father, King
Belah, has been killed in battle and that his
mother had died of starvation. His people
are in a desperate situation, and he is urged
to come at once and bring all the relief pos
sible. He will ieave here in short time for
Africa.

The time may not be ripe for woman's
suffrage, but women have great oppor-
tunity for usefulness in public capacity by
the formation of health protective associa-
tions, which they cannot make use OF with
too much earnestness and vigor.

A GOOD deal has been said of the possible
postponement of the Worlds Fair, but
nothing has been heard of the danger from
cholera in gathering the war vessels of all
nations off New York for the Columbian
naval celebration next month.

LABOR troubles will never cease, and
the brotherhood of man can never be more
than an empty name until capital and labor
recognize their absolute dependence upon
one another, and substitute cooperative
proit-sharing associations for separate or
ganizations of employers on the one hand
and employees on the other.

REASONS assigned by the grain elevat

REASONS assigned by the grain elevator
monopolists for refusing to inform mercan-
tile reports of the amount of grain on hand
are as illogical as fallacious, and will bring
the same injury to the public as those Oft
repeated and always violated assertions
made by every combination at its Inaugural
tion, that they are working simply and
solely for the cheapening. of products and
the general benefit of the consumer.

TAUBENEcK, Chairman of the Peoples

Judge Gresham, and he appears inclined to
continue in the same line so long as the CAM

degree of public attention.

get the greatest results out Of her power.

ESTIMATES as to the vote by which this,
that and the other party expects 10 carry
that this and the other State in November
are interesting enough in the few cases
where they are made from reliable facts
rather than baseless hopes. But the results
depend not upon the wishes and prognos-
tications of prejudiced statisticans, nor
should their determination be allowed by
the Vaccinations of self-interested politi-
clans. They should be made to rest on the
careful consideration and consequent con-
viction of every individual American voter.

THAT terrible list of true bills returned
by the grand jury in the Homestead cases is
of course widely different from so many

warning that law and labor should always

SCRAPS FOR OLD SOLDIERS.

OF all the confederate brigadiers sur.

of Mississippi, recently reelected sem

He is tall and slender, with a name of
black hair that is striking in appear

the future bishop became colonel of the

DURING the Seven Days battles in
front of Richmond, a gaunt and hollow
eyed South Carolinian was being min
istered to in one of the hospitals in the
capital of the confederacy. The good
lady offered the rebel soldier some deli
catcly-served trife from her own
kitchen, and was much surprised at his
refusal to eat the nice food. The SOL
dier, in answer to her remark that the
food was just what n man in his condi-
tion needed, replied: "Jest ez you say,
