PRESS COMMENT.

Of all Europeans rulers he should have
been the last to fall a victim to a muir
derous impulse.-N. Y. World.
Probably the urderer himself did not
clearly understand the purpose that he
had in view.-Cincinnat Enquirer.
In assassinating the head Of the French
republic the anarchists have invoked the
re-establishment of observation-disclosures

The assassination Of President Carnot
may be said to carry with it a peril to
the French repuhlic-st. Louis Globe
Democrat
of Carnot's death DSnspire distrust of
the existing forr7 u = Igovernment.-San
Francisco Call
This man has been sacrificed to the
spirit of revenge in a body of fanatics
who are entitled to little or no consid-
eration.-Boston Globe.
The political effect of Santos crime will
be less should it turn out that he is an
anarchist than if it is proved that his
murderous blow was prompted by more
intense race feeling.
His death at the hands of the mis-
creant who struck the fatal blow is
another proof that anarchism is as un-
reasoning as it is unjust and cruel
Kansas City Times.
1t would indicate that the spirit Of
anarchy is rife in France, and the men
who are prompted by il are haters of
all law and the enemies of all that may
be called order.-Denver Republican.
President Carnot was murdered by
member of one of those bands of blood
thirsty anarchists who seem madly bent
on involving all government, all society
in one indiscriminate ruin and slaughter.
Boston Journal.
This awful deed perpetrated in the
most civilized country in the world viii
not only arouse the indignation of all
thinking men but will also produce
feeling of general uneasiness and uncer-
tainty.-New Orleans Picayune.
The man who stabbed Carnot has his
mates in every capital of Europe and
America. From Grover Cleveland to
Alexander III there is no head of a state
whose life is not endangered by tonights
work.-San Francisco Examiner.
The period has come when France
must either crush anarchy or the re-
public itself be stamped out and a return
come to the terrible days of the COM
mune. Which shall it be? France alone
must answer-Cincinanu Commercial
Gazette.
1t was not only a blow at Carnot. but
at France and at good government ev-
cry WneIe IN the WOflQ-- 1t IS Only an
other demonstration of the fact that an
archy means destruction. and that in
Europe, at least, anarchists are muir
derers.-Denver Rock Mountain News.
Of this most deplorable tragedy, let us
hope that at least one good effect will
follow-that French loyalty will be so
cemented and vigilance so stimulated
that anarchy shall be swiftly extermi-
mated in that country-if need by, by
fire and sword. The policy of forbear-
ance toward creatures of that type has
been tried and found wanting.-Minne-
apolis Tribune.
The spirit which nerved the arm of
Carnot's assassin is harbored, i'm one form
or another in every land having a civil
lized government. 1t turks in every ma
tion under the guise of personal liberty.
1t is encouraged by the cowardice of
place-seekers. 1t is the co-partner of
demagogues, and is the incentive of
every crime against law and order
Kansas City Journal
Next to he worldwide sorrow that a
magistrate amiable and so upright
should be thus foully slain will be the
startling realization that modern civiliz-
alton is again face to face with a propa-
ganda which gives no quarter and ac-
cepts none, and against which mankind
must unite for the preservation of all
that has been won during many centuries
of progress.-Chicago Herald.
Carnot represented and typifed repub-
lican government i'm France. Like Lin
coin, he was struck down in the pres
ence Of the people who were doing honor
to his great services, and his assassin
was evidently like the murderer of Lin
coln-insensate to all thoughts save the
nOtOriety Of committing a murder that
would hand his name down to the exc
Grafton of the ages.-Pittsburg Dispatch.
1t is the latest and the most startling
of the long and bloody series of lessons
the anarchists of Europe have been in
dustriously giving to the world. The
murder of the French executive will
probably and rightly result In a series
of such vigorous general prosecutions
in France at least that the advocates of
mo government win find it to their
advantage to remain quiet for some
time-Pittsburg Post.
The hope will be cherished that Santo
may be the last of the tribe Of assassins.
-Pittsburg Commercial.
This is the elimination Of the afro
cities by the anarchists in France. From
this hour a war of determination should
be waged against them. They should
receive the compassion that is shown to
the mad dog, and no more. And this
war Of determination should not be con-
fined to France. Every government
that is cursed with these wretches should
adopt the most extreme measures
against them.-N. Y. Advertiser.
