AN ANoMALous 80.

In the discussion of crime in which
the prison congress has been engaged
this week it seems to have overlooked
a peculiar phase Of the question which
has come under the observation of Mr.
". E Curtis of the Chicago Record.
while visiting the City Of Mexico in the
interest Of that paper
Mr. Curtis relates that after encoun-
tering policemen and guards every
where else in the city. he was sur
prised on visiting the national mint to
find it open and unguarded; that while
it is the custom for every body who can
obtain one. to carry a revolver in Mex
leo. the employees in and about the mint
are unarmed.
He relates that he saw wagon with
its character emblazoned on its sides.
loaded with Mexican coin and driven to
another part of the city in charge OF
two unarmed employees and otherwise
unprotected. In answer to his inquir-
les as to how they dared to take such
risks he was informed that it had al
ways been so; that there had never
been any loss and that nobody thought
anything about it.
1T has been held that people are
most intent on doing that which some
body is trying to prevent them from
doing Is the situation in Mexico a
practical demonstration of the theory2
If it is it might be well to extend the
system.
