CRIMINAL STATISTICS.
A Showing Which Is Hardly Satisfactory
TO the Moralist

to the MOralist.
Probably one of the greatest dangers
to organized society is found in the
criminal classes. The laws of the pro-
duction and confirmation of Grimm
ais, with their treatment, should be
among the most thoughtfully studied
branches of political science. The num-
Der of convlcts In penltentiaries In 1880
was So, 53S, while IN 1890 it was 40, 233,
an increase in ten years Of $685., or
27.2S per cent and during this interval
the total population increased only at
the rate of 1856 per cent. Again, the
total number OF prisoners in county
jalls in 1880 was 1851; in 1890, 10, 53S,
an increase in ten years of 6,S47, or at
the rate Of $3.50 per cent. Coming to
the inmates of juvenile reformatorles
we find the number reported IN 1851
was II .46S; in 1890, Il, $40, an increase
of 1878, or 29.46 per cent. 1t is thus
shown by recent statistics that the vari-
GUS grades of criminal population are
increasing more rapidly than the popu-
lation at large.
The same results have been shown by
previous census reports. 1t must also
be remembered that large number of
actual criminals are not under cOntne-
ment, and are hence not included in
the figures showing their increase. 1t
has evidently become a vitality import
ant question for decision by society as
to the best plan to pursue toward the
criminal The Popular Science Month
ly holds it to be TACT proved by statis-
tics that large percentage of criminals
are defective either physically or men
tally, and have had an unfavorable
hereditv and environment. Under the
general system in this country no at
tempt is made to rehabilitate them dur
ing confinement. Criminals are first
made to a certain extent by unfortunate
heredity and unfavorable social condi-
tions, and then confirmed by imprison-
ment. Weak character and environ
ment bring out the unfttest elements,
and society by its treatment hastens to
provide for their survival.

A JUST JUDGE.
He Sold His Stock, Decided the Case, and
Divi ded the Profits.

Judge Goodwin, in the Comstock
Club, tells an interesting story Of a
conscientious judge who adorned the
Nevada bench. In his court suit in
volving the title to some mining ground
was pending between two companies.
In another part OF the district the
Judge had some claims which were
looked upon as mere wildcat" He
had incorporated with 10000 shares
and held them at 81 each, with the I'M
derstanding that 20 per cent. Of the
money received for stock should be set
aside as working capital. But no
body would BUY. One night quite late
the Judge heard a soft knock on his
chamber door. 1t was the president OF
the company that was plaintiff IN the
mining suit
81 was looking at your claims over on
believe they are good. [ would like
some of the stock"
The Judge cheerfully sold him $1O,O 900
worth.
81 suppose" suggested His Honor,
"that this transaction had better be
kept secret for the present.
"Of course" agreed the litlgant.
A few days later the jurist met the
superintendent of the defendant COM
pany and talked stock to him, giving
the opinion that if he bought about $40,
900 worth he would do we'll. The sup
erintendent saw the point and in
vested. The Judge deposited in bank
$4,000 of the $4,000 to his own account
and 81 900 to the credit of his company.
Judgment was given to the plaintiff,
and the superintendent of the losing
company went wild and declared every
where that the Judge was brlbe-tak-
ing thief. His Honor presently sent for
both men and informed them that a
big deposit of ore had been struck in
his mine. He was, therefore, able to
pay dividend of 81 share, and hand
ed each of the astonlshed investors a
check for $4,000. In a few days the
mine was sold for $500, 900, and the
Judge honorably gave each of his two
ckholders $4,000.
''Why did you get me to buy stock,
Judge" inquired the enriched and mol
lifted superintendent, "when you meant
to decide against my company
'ETo tell the truth" answered His
Honor, 81 had received 10000 from the
president here, and was afraid if the
matter went that way into the court
might be prejudiced, SO | sold you a
like amount that | might 60 upon the

Indian Voters in Oklahoma.

The fact that the Indian can vote il
he lives ''in severalty" and pays taxes
like any other citizen comes up at odd
times to bother new states and terri
tories. In 1859 it raised a great row in
Minnesota. The legislature having en-
acted that Indians, whether on reser-
walton or not, who had taken certain
steps in civilization, such as dressing
like white men and wearing their hair
ditto, should have the right to vote, one
Cullen, an Indian agent, promptly cut
the hair Of all those in his charge, put
breeches ON them and marched them to
the polls.
Among the humors of the next cam
paign was a dialogue like this: 'Heh,
who cut your hairY' "Cullen g Co. !"
Now Judge John Dills and other law
yers declare that the Indians in Oklaho-
ma will be entitled to vote at the COM
ing elections. They say the law pro-
vides that Indians taking land in sever
atty have the same right of franchise as
any citizen, and if this opinion be good
law the candidates will have $500 In
dams to buttonhole. If the Indians vote
it is likely to make a great difference in
the congressional contest.

When the news of the murderous
attack upon Mr.. Frick at Homestead
by the anarchist Bergman was an
nounced in the camp of the Pennsyl-
vania militia one of the soldiers, pri-
vate named Iams exclaimed, "Hurrah
for the man that shot him. For this
he was found guilty of unsoldierly
conduct, the buttons were cut from
his uniform and he was hanged up by
the thumbs until he was almost dead.
His uniform was then taken off, his
head and mustache shaved on one
side, an old suit of tattered garments
was put on him and he was drummed
from the camp to the tune of the
Rogue's March The only excuse that
can be madeby Iams is that his remark
was Il thoughtless one, but whether it
was or not it did not call for such inhu-
man punishment. 1t would have been
sufficient to send him from camp in dis
grace without the terrible torture
of hanging him up by the thumbs.
In doing this Col. Streator went too
far, and he will likely be called upon
to answer for his conduct before the
civil courts

MANAGER FRICK ATTACKED BIZ
An ANARCHIST.

The labor troubles at Homestead.
Pa. have assumed a new phase. Last
Saturday afternoon, a man believed
to be crank, made his way into Mr..
Henry @. Tricks private office and
without saying a word drew Il pistol
and fired at Mr.. Prick several times
before the pistol could be wrenched
from his grasp. He then drew dag
ger and stabbed Mr.. Prick. He was
overpowered and committed to iail
lie gave the name of Alexander Rero
man. He is a Russian Jew, about 90
years of age, and has been recognized
as an anarchist of the worst character.
While his photograph was being taken
1t was found that he had dynamite
cartridge in his mouth, endevorine to
commit suicide by blowing his head
off.
The advisory board of the Amalga-
mated Steel Association has con-
dcmned the assault upon Mr.. Prick
AMI rendered him its sympathy. The
act is deeply deplored by the strikers
who fear it will be a death-blo to
their cause.
Bergman mayhave become crazed
by the incendiary talk of the anarchist
leaders and thought he was doing an
act which would rebound to his credit.
lie will find his mistake, to his sorrow.
perhaps. The anarchists are mostly
lawless foreigners, driven from their
own country as mad dogs are hunted
out of neighborhood. Coming here
they convert the liberty accorded
them into license, and have no interest
in good government or in social order.
There is no question as to the right of
the community to protect itself from
mad or fierce animals and there ought
to be no question as to the right of a
iaw-abiding American people to pro
tect themselves against men who are
bound together to subvert society by
means of assassination if necessary.
Anarchists should have no more con
Ii Iii .dion than mad dogs.

of their vile and dangerous principles.
1t would be unjust to charge Berg
mans crime upon the Homestead
workmen or upon organized labor any
where. The Carnegie workers have
had abundant opportunities to take
Mr. Prick life, but not a single threat
was made against his person. Even
the property of the mill owners was
not destroyed, with the exception of
the high fence around the mills, which
was torn down to enable them to re-
pulse the Pinkerton men. This dam
age was carefully repaired the next
day. Nevertheless the heinous deed
of this miserable anarchist is likely to
do damage to the cause of the locked
out workmen. The conclusion can
scarcely be avoided that the protec-
tive tariff is in no small degree respon-
sible for the lawlessness at Homestead.
The workmen were told that they were
to share in all the benefits to accrue
to the manufacturers from the protec-
tive tariff. They accepted the declara-
ton as a fact and it is not strange that
they should feel agSrieved at any re-
duction of their wages
