Regards che Insecurity or Life'


Itaiv has long had the unenviable distlnc'
tion of a larger average number OF murders IN
a year thar any other country OF Europe, the
average in q year being about 1900, Spain toi'
lowing with 1900. France and Germany WIN
700 each, Austria exclusive OF hungary WIN
600. and Great Britain with $50. In GREAT
Britain the average number OF murders Is least
in Scotland, where this crime Is very rare An
italian professor named Garafalo has recehtIy
delivered an address In Rome on the snoJcct
OF murderous propensities OF individuals id va
rious nations. and Europcan medical men are
discussing his statement that the number OF
Killings in Italy really amounts to 1000 q
vear. which ia equivalent TO n homicide In that
nountrv every two hours. There are, however.
aome facts 10 DO taken into consideration re-
oordinR this showing which mitigate ~ 10
some extent. Many OF the violent deaths
brought about In Italy are not properly muir
ders. but killings either In self-defence or un-
der proyocation amounting, In law, TO selt-de-
fence. The Italians, especially those In the
extreme southern end Of the peninsula and In
the adjacent island Of Sicily. are a passionate
race. and insults which in other countries or in
other parts Of italy would form the basis or
civil actions for damages arc settled in a more
summary way.
Prof. Grnfalo attributes much OF the ton
dency to homicide to the existence OF the ven
delta, which has fingered longer in Italy
than in any other country, and to tho prac-
tice of duelling. It Is generally believed that
the enforcement OF laws regarding murderous
assaults Is very lax In Italy, but the latest re-
ports chow that the number OF condemned
persons is quite as large there as In 9th er coun-
tries where the crime OF murder is much
rarer. For =. 200 murder cases, tho average In
Italy, the convictions lumber. on the aver
age, Z, 700 In a year, though the penalty in
many cases seems disproportioned to the gray
itv of the offence.
The number OF murders and homicides. In
the United States, the population Of which
II nearly double that Of the Italian Kingdom
probably two and n half times larger
amounts In a year to about $500. and the num-.
the whole number Of nvictiUns-abou 100
in n year. 1t is q reproach to the American sys-
tenn OF dealing with murderers, to which,
however, European authorities refer some
what vaguely, that the number of lynchings
in the United States invariably exceeds each
year tho number of legal executions. In
other words. there are more cases every wear
in which the population of the neighbprhood
where a crime has been committed take the
law in their own hands than there are cases
in which the law performs the same function.

IAN act to change the corporate namo OF the Czwarty

Pulk Ulanow Polskich pod opleka Matki Dosk
CEcstochowski OF Buffalo. New York.
Became a law April "a, 1899. with the approval OF
the Governor. Passed, q majority
being present
THE People Of the State Of Net0 York, represented IN
Senate aud Assembly. do enact as rolovs:
"sEcTIoS l. The name OF the corporation incorpo-
rated on the fourth day OF June. eighteen hundred
and eighty SEVEN, as Czwarty Pulk Ulanow Associa-
ton, Is hereby changed 10 the CEwarty Pulk Ulanow
Polskich pod opleka Matki Bosk CZestochowski of
Buffalo, New YORK.
SEC 3. This act shall take enect. Immediately"
The General Corporation law of this State
provides that every certificate OF incorpora-
ton and amended or supplemental %certiti-
cate executed after May Ia, 1895, shall be
in the English language. Mr.. FRANK
WHITE, the examiner of corporation certih-
Gates in the Office Of the Secretary Of State,
interprets this provision as requiring all
the r~ecitals to be in English, including the
name of the corporation itself. This was a
good rule to establish, and we should like to
know what valid reason the member of the
Legislature, or Mr.. CHARLES z. LINCOLN,
the Governors legal adviser, can assign
for departing from its spirit and intent,
and sanctioning the adoption Of a corporate
name in a foreign tongue, which would
doubtless floor any one of them If they ell
deavored to translate it.
At the very least. the statute should have
contained a translation Of the title Czwarty
Pulk Ulanow Polskich pod opieka Matki
Bosk Czestochowski. 1t may be pretty, but
it is not plain.
An Office cat is sadly needed in the execu-
tive chamber at Albany.
