SUPPRESS THE THIEYEsI

The Christmas season appears to be re-
garded as harvest by the members of the
profession who live from the misappropri-
ton of others property. After a con-
siderable exemption from highway rob-
berries, burglaries and picking pockets, it
is not pleasant to read the daily reports of
the new boom in thieving. There is slight
compensation in the occasional detection
of a ro5ber, but the success of the police
in this line has not yet attained the degree
that is necessary for the suppression of
the evil.
OF course it is to be recognized that
there is some difficulty in promptly and
completely suppressing professional
thieves. But it should also be remem-
bered that one of the primary purposes
Of government is to protect the people
against criminals of this class. If bur-
glary and highway robbery cannot be sup
pressed, people may come to ask them
selves why they pay large sums for the
maintenance of police and the building of
court houses, jails and penitentiaries. 1t
is certain that if the police force wishes to
vindicate its right to an existence it must
put forth its utmost exertions to detect
and punish the criminals who seem to be
making the Christmas season a harvest of
robbery.
The police department has senergetically
aimed to reach success in making this city
an exceedingly unfavorable locality for
thieves. This object, too, has been at
times attained. The present situation
shows the pressing need of renewed
activity in that line.

MAGNANIMITY OR NERVOUSNESS

That is an interesting social question
whether the remarkably bloodless duel of
Clemenceau and Deroulede was due to the
merciful nature of the combatants or to
the arrangement of accuracy caused by
the presence of a pistol in the other mans
hand 1t sounds more heroic to say that
the blood thirsty enemies spared each
other; and consequently that view is
adopted by the enthusiasts who build the
lofty accounts of the cable dispatches.
But that irresistibly suggests the question:
If Clemenceau and Deroulede did not
wish to kill each other why repair to the
field of honor? They could have exhibited
their magnanimity just as well by agree
ing to abstain from slaughter without per-
forating the circumambient atmosphere
or afrighting the birds as well as the
gossips with the expectation of tragedy.
Naturally we regard this innocuous
class OF French duel as preferable to the
mere fatal variety. Nevertheless the
solemn form of shooting at your enemy
without hitting him is somewhat rIdicu-
lous, and is likely to provoke sarcasms
touching upon possible unsteadiness of
aim

COST OF RAIL AND WATER CARRIAGE

One of the originators of the Tehuan-
tepec ship-railroad scheme is reported in a
cotemporary last evening as saying "It
stands to reason that ton can be moved
more easily and cheaply over railroad
than it can be pushed through water"
On this it is in place to note that the OBJ
servation may "stand to reason" very
well, but it does not stand in with the facts
at all. The notorious fact, of course, is
that ton of freight is carried by water at
but small percentage of the average cost
to the shipper of rail carriage.
Yet the ship-railroad advocate is per-
haps correct in one sense. That is to say,
if railroads were to perform service for
the public upon charges based on the
actual cost of such service-the real ex-
pense of construction and operation
then, indeed, rail-carriage might be nearly
as cheap as water.
But the trouble, as everybody knows, is
that every ton of freight which travels
over the railroad has to pay also for the
"water' in the railroad stock and bond
securities. Such is the sort of 'water"
which makes tranSportati0ns expensive
The bogus capitalization which puts for
tunes into the pockets of promoters is the
perpetual burden laid upon the public.
Interest and fixed charges upon that bogus
factor have to be met by such freight
rates as are far above the cost of transpor-
tatioG by waterways; and it is to water
ways the public are now compelled to look
both for relief from excessive charges and
for increased facilities for business

A TAMMANY ISSuE.

There is an intimation in the current
news that the movement to establish q
national quarantine Will be antagonized
by the Tammany Democracy. Tammany
has not very positive views as to the best
methods of disinfection or the most GER
tain way to keep out an epidemic. But
Tammany has very positive views as to
the desirability of the quarantine officers
at New York for ,Tammany politicians.
1t is understood, therefore, that the Tam
many representatives in Congress will be
instructed to fight any proposition to put
those offices under Federal control and
appointment
If this should be the position taken by
that organization for spoils, it would offer
a new and striking presentation of the
issue whether this Government shall be
run for the benefit of the Tammany
spoilsmen or for the interest of the whole
nation, There Is no doubt that the whole

ering means by which this indemnity can
be most justly distributed among the claim
ants. There are no less than 80 persons
interested. The families of Riggin, who
was killed, and Turnbull, who subsequently
died from wounds, will receive a generous
part of tile indemnity. Six men were seri-
ously wounded during the attack, and they

Grafton by the department. 1t is not un-
likely that Secretary Tracy will convene a
board Of naval officers to determine how
and to whom the money shall be paiu, this
being the usual method pursued by the Ge-
partmenr in cases involving the distribution
of money, and as the testimony of the Balti-
more's crew upon the return of that vessel
to San Francisco is complete, such board
could readily arrive at just conclusions in
the matter
