KNOWLEDGE IS POWER.
In the vicious ~ May DO society Vast Harm,
In the Future.


II the spirit Of anarchism spreads, and
the recipes for making safe bombs become
a little more widely known, we may yet
be able to set the discovery Of high cxplo-
sivcs against the discovery Of chloruform,
and 20 doubt whether scientific research
does, ON the whole, more evil or more good.
In truth 10 docs neither, knowlc ige being
neither moro nor less than force which
produces good or evil, according to the
character-which is not material--of the
man who possesses It, The modern notion
that knowledge has in itself something di-
vine is as false as the ancient notion that
It has I'm itself something diabolic. You
can rob by the aid OF chloroforrn as well as
relieve pain. There arc whole branches Of
knowledge the diffusion of which would
almost certainly produce pure evil.
Household murder, for instance, would
be far more common II all men and wom-
en- knew what a few physicians know
about the really dangerous poisous-were
aware, for instance, that there T. drug
procurable in almost every field which
Stimulates the effect Of one common vari-
ETY. Of heart disease, the suspension Of vi
tality through anHmia. And suicide,
which, whether 10 Is n crime or not, Is Ger
tainly great evil, would be multiplied
tenfold If every one knew how IL Is pos
siblc TO terminate life instantaneously and
painlessly through means which no law
against poisons win ever touch, and which
can be obtained in every street. There are
no means in existence of keeping such
facts, when once generally known, from
the knowledge Of the bad, and il is they,
and not the good, who will want to use
them.
The world indeed may one day and at
no very distant period, have awful evil
dence of the truth OF the theory that
knowledge is only weapon neither bad
nor good. II is most probable, It Is nearly
certain, that means OF destroying life ON a
vast scale, either by the multiplication OF
existing fOrces-thc maxim gun-or by the
use of asphyxiating shells, or, as half
dozen novelists have already suggested, by
explosives directed from aerial machines,
will be discovered and eagerly utilized by
the able men who in every country arc
striving 20 improve material of war.
No possible precaution would keep such
processes secret for long, and they may
fall into the hands of the Chinese, the
Arabs or of the anarchists with, as result,
either the subjugation Of the world or its
partial depopulation. 1t would be an aw-
ful illustration Of that irony Of fate which
sometimes seems TO preside over the desti-
nies of men if science killed civilization,
but that is by no means one OF the impOs-
siblc occurrences. London Spectator.

WANTS THE CITY HALL SITE.
Cook County Commissioners Make a Big
Demand on Chicago.

Cook County Commissioners Make a Big
Demand on Chicago.
At the next meeting of the County
Board of Cook County the first gun
will be fired in long legal battle, the
duration of which will probably not be
measured by the present generation,
when County Attorney Judd presents
an order for the Boards approval max
ing formal demand upon the city Of
Chicago for the possession of the city
hall property. City officials are at
present inclined to consider this as a
loke, or, at best. bluff on the part of
the County Commissioners. 1t is
thought that the latter have an object
TO gain, the nature of which is not yet
apparent.
Attorney Judd said, according to a
dispatch, that the county's intentions
were serious. L shall" said he, ASK
the County Board to pass an order
making the demand on the city merely
as necessary legal formality. The
city will, OF course, refuse to comply,
ard then / shall file bill for the
unity. 1t will probably come up in
the Circuit Court l expect to get a
decision and carry the case before the
Supreme Court in the October term Of
this year.
Il am of the opinion that the county
hes legal right t. the land. AS for
compromising the city for its building,
a. is another question, but | don
tn nix the courts will think it neces-
sary. This is not precisely question
of equity or justice, you see. Neither
side will be robbed, VIII chever wins,
because the two municipalities are
practically the same. The city rays
seven-eighths of the county taxes, and
the issue only concerns the best u,e of
the peoples money and the people g
property. The talk Is already started
by some OF the County Commissioners
"a to the disposition of the City Hall
grounds when they get them. A
$50 0,00l building for county purposes,
with an in closure in which Is to be the
Jail, is ore of the projects discussed.
Corporation Counsel Rubens thinks
the legal aspects of the suit are not
worth worrying over. He thinks Ii
would be fortunate for the city il the
county won the suit, for the city could
then enter into negotiations with the
United States Government to exchange
property OH the lake front for the GUS
tom house block and thereon erect a
new city hall.
