The Socialists justly receive the credit
for defeating the German army bill Not
only did they fight the measure unceas-
ingIy in the reichstag, but they carried on
a campaign all through the country, so
thoroughly arousing the people that legis-
lators who might have been won over to
the government dared not disobey their
constituents. The Socialists having begun
the campaign when the army bill was in.
troduced, have only to continue it, while
the other parties are disorganized. This
dispatch from Berlin was printed in the
New York Sun few days ago:
The central committee Of the Social Demo.
cratic party meets daily to organize work Of the
next electoral campaign. The local committees
the party now has an election fund OF 6250 900
marks deposited In the Bank of England. Paul
singer told your correspondent on Friday that
reports from all parts OF the empire justify the
prediction that at the next general election the
Social Democrats will poll 2.500,00O votes, or
nearly l. 100 900 more than In 1880. Despite the
differences between the old party and the INDIE
pendents, the central committee will not with.
hold money from constituencies in which indie
pendent Candidates will run with good chances
OF success. The Socialists will enter the cam.
paign alert, enthusiastic and better organised
than are the memb OF the older parties.

Carlyle Harris. the young man who
murdered his wife in New York, has expi.
ated his crime by death. The punishment
was undoubtedly deserved, and the fact
that the law was allowed to take its course
in spite of the great influence brought to
bear by the friends of the murderer to save
his life is creditable to the chief executive
of the state of New York.
