Pearl Bryan's Murder.
BaIlImOre Heraldl

N,hittii4oAt Aliidiisl
The astonishing fatality which prompt
men in the preparation OF heinou
crimes TO commit blunders that leas
to detection was never more astonish
ingly exemplifed than In the murder o.
Pearl Bryan, near Cincinnati. Already
the proofs against the two accuse
students are so overwhelming that nc
avenue OF escape seems open 60 them
The very means which they relied upon
TO save them from extreme punishment
only served 10 fasten about them all the
more securely chain Of guilt Without
the fatal admission that they disposed
OF the body TO conceal the evidence q
another crime and cut or the head 10
prevent Identification, they would have
stood some chance however. slight. But
this confession rises up against them now
that the proof OF deliberate, wilful mur.
der seems irrefutable. They could not
deny their Identity with the men who
took the victim out 10 the suburbs In 4
cab and killed her in lonely spot.
even IL the testimony OF the driver Jack
son was sull wanting 70 complete the
evidence because they had previously
acknowledged removing the dead body
OF the girl. The result OF the autopsy
and the statement OF Jackson were de-
sired TO establish the degree OF crime
not to connect the accused with IL, they
having completed the connection them
selves.
Equally imbecile was the severance Of
the head from the body TO make identl.
ncation impossible. The headless corpse
at once impressed the authorities with
the sensational nature OF the crime. and
stimulated the detectives in their en-.
dsavors to discover the criminals. All
the precautions which the latter had
taken TO insure their safety only facili-
tatod discovery.
The execution % Hayward Of Harris,
and OF bat" Shea. the conviction Of
Holmes. Durant. and Duestrow. are
gratifying indications that the murderers
Of Pearl Bryant will not escape justice.

An Unprecedented Victory.
(Bangor News. Rep.)

The Republican party has won an I'M
precedented victory in the State OF
Maine, and the voice of the Pine Tree
State will echo and re-echo through
out the Union today, the popular YER
dict against the propositions set forth
in that Chicago platform. While the re-
suit is a great personal victory for the
Republican candidate for governor il
is in the main victory for Republi-
can principles. honesty and good gov
eminent and will be so regarded
throughout the length and breadth OF
the United States. The contest Whicl
led up to this election was vigorously
fought by both sides, and inasmuch as
Maine is the home of the Democratic
candidate for vice president, the free
silver party had expected, until recent
ly,to make great in roads on the natura
republican strength of the State The,
hopes have proved delusive, however
and instead of making gains, the Demo
cratic party of Maine has suffered from,
the loss OF many of its best supporters
IN former years. and the remnant has
suffered the worst defeat in the his
tory of the State

issues: when they ruthlessly crushed
moderation. They stopped at nothing
to carry their principles to success in
Maine.
| Now they have the audacity to say
the unprecedented, overwhelming de-
feat which they have met at the hands
of the people-for majority of $4,000 to
$4,000 comes very near being the voice
of the people as they must admit
doesn't signify the sentiment of Maine
toward Popocratic principles.
Before that Chicago convention went
wild over a man with a prepared speech,
before Mr.. Sewall was chosen from
Maine in the delusion that this State
could be carried for free silver Maine
had been flooded with free silver litera
ture. IT was found in every hamlet
and the people. tired of reading one
side were clamoring for sound money
documents to get an idea of the other
SIut. NOW coIIlcS the WUlI11DcT about not
having had time to educate the people
No they have not had the time for
that and they never will have so long
as the folly of grecnbackism and the
memory of the glorious victory of last
Monday remain in the minds of Maine
voters.
Just what they would have the coun-
try believe was not signiiicd by the
greatest majority Maine ever gave in
presidential year was signified. That
victory means what William Henry
Clifford said it meant when on hearing
the news Monday night he exclaimed:
Glory be to Columbia. | am glad to
learn that Maine has put herself on
record for honesty, integrity and jus
tice." 1t means that the Republican
ticket received such a majority as it
could not by any possibility have re-
ceived had not thousands of dyedin in
the wool Democrats set country above
party, realizing as they did and do the
enormity of the avowed principles of
that platform adopted at Chicago; and
had not every man Disguised with all
the isms that have caused the distress
of the past four years risen in their
might
Never was a fact made more promi-
ncnt to the minds of the people than
this: Maine has nothing but condemna-
ton for the Reputation of honest
debts, nothing but scorn for attempts
to force this great nation to disgrace
and ruin her credit, to surrender her
right to enforce respect for her laws,
to disgrace her supreme tribunal and
to cause patriotic citizens who appre-
ciate it all, to hid their faces in shame.
AS well might those Popocratic
plants plead that seed time sunshine
and rain have nothing to do with the
harvest.

Excuses that are not excuses are al
the tedium OF listening to them is re-
lieved by their absurdity, and this is
the case with those which the few
Maine Popocrats who have found their
speech since Monday night now have
to offer.
They assume to tell US the vote in
ment of the State toward the principles
in that Chicago platform.
OF all the ridiculous bravado ever in
dulged in by those who have crawled out
from under humiliation by a hairs
breadth this is the most absurd. 1t
doesn't deserve notice but as it invites
it so brazenly perhaps it is well to al
Jude to it briefly.
Mr.. Frank laments that the Demo-
Gratis were disorganized, without funds
and organized effort and concludes that
''in view of the above facts the result
can have but little effect on the nation
al contest" This does not sound much
like Secretary Beanes statement of a
few weeks ago that outside of on,
own congressman we shall put in full,
as good, if not better list of sneakers
than the Republicans" AS a matter
of fact the Democratic party never held
so many mass meetings in this State
during presidential campaign. A few
days ago Secretary Beane predicted
that the Democrats would hold the Re.
publican majority down to what it wa.
in 1892, or to its average majority. Mr.
L. c. Plummer. Mr.. Sewalrs "righ
hand man" predicted that the Demo
Gratis would cut the Republican plur
atty down to about 10000.
These men were not in a position +,
