the fact, derived both from testimony
and observation, that no cleaner or
better kept public building can be
found I'm this commonwealth. The
food Is abundant and in some respects
too generous for men for whom reg
ular labor cannct be supplied. The
warden and overseers appeared to be
conscientious and humane, and their
kindly management was found to be
appreciated by a vast majority both
of convicts and ex-convicts of whom
a large number were privately exam
ined by this committee and its MEM
bers. No degrading or other punish
ment, except of the most trifiing char
acter, is ever allowed. No deadly wea-
pons are permitted on the premises
One ordinary pollceman's baton is
privately kept at the head Of each cor
ridor, and the evidence shows that
there is an average of about two cases
per year where these have to be re-
sorted to, generally for the purpose Of
quelling fights between prisoners MAIN
ly resulting from the overcrowded con-
ditlon of the prison. The testimony
developed the remarkable fact that
during the history of the prison from
1929 to the present time not less than
six officers and overseers of the insti-
tuition were killed, but not a single
convict was ever killed or permanent
ly injured by any of the officers.
Every officer and employe examinedby
us personality or as a sworn witness,
seemed to be interested in the sue
cess of the institution as a reforming
agency, and we are unable to discover
a single instance of the use of force
that was wanton or unnecessary, or
that was not fully justified by the at
tendant circumstances"
If this is a "whitewash" the people
should know it. The committee went
none too far in saying that "a judge
who descends from his seat on the
bench to make sworn charges of such
gravity against public officials should
substantiate them" Unless he does
this the recoil of public sentiment
upon himself must speedily force him
off the bench.

Let Judge Gordon Act.

The report Of the legislative COM
mittee appointed to investigate the
conduct of the Eastern peniteniiary
places upon Judge Gordon of Philadel-
phia the duty of sustaining his serious
charges before a proper tribunal or
else of resigning from the bench in
disgrace There is no middle course
LEFT to him.
1t will be remembered that the ac-
cusations brought by him against the
officials of this prison included cruelty,
perjury, mismanagement and murder
The committee says on this point
'"rhe judge was sworn as a witness
and was fully heard before this COM
mittee and all other persons designated
by him as witnesses We're subpoenaed
and heard at length so far as their
presence could be obtained, including
all the convicts and ex-convicts des-
ignated by him. After a careful hear
ing and close examination OF this
large body of testimony, as well as Of
that adduced in denial or explanation
thereof, and after personal examlna-
tion by the members Of the committee
of details and minutes of the Eastern
penitentiary and its management, in

1t is the opinion of Professor Peck,
of Columbia university, that too much
learning among the masses is dam
gerous thing. The professor is frank,
and in some respects he is also right.
1t all depends upon what we mean by
learning. The kind which creates
dissatisfaction with social conditions,
which values things chiefly accord
ing to the dollar standard and there
fore makes for envy, turbulence, social
ism and disregard of conscience, ccr-
tainly is dangerous. But If this is
the kind now most prevalent it is the
fault of the instructors, and instead
OF ceasing to teach at all thev should
strive to teach in a more rational way.
1t is possible to be both well-informed
and happy. Whenever a system Of
scholastic training tends to make
these two conditions Incompatible
rest assured that it is rotten at the
core.

HE WILL NOT RESIGN. Secretary Gage Has No Such

Mckinley had refused to ac- cept it, said: 'There is nothing in it The report in question gave MT. Van derlip as authority for the assertion. Secretary Gage left for New York this morning. It is regarded as probable that in the conversation with the Pres ident AIr Gage in an informal way said he would resign if his financial views were embarrassing to the ad- ministratfon. The President in reply stated very positively that he did not want his Secretary of the Treasury to do any such thing.
 It is learned furthermore that at the time of this conversation the Presi- dent informed Mir Gage that their views were in accord and that he must not think of resigning- It is regarded as certain that Mr. Gage will continue in office

VAS KILLED WITH 4 CLUB.

AaricOpa, Dec. 2S.- Special-News of a shocking murder at Maricopa water tank this morning was brought in by tramp, one of a party of three who discovered the dead man. The murdered man arrived here last after noon about one o'clock on foot and took lunch at Edwards hotel telling the waiter there he had been working at Phoenix as a teamSter- He had been in a runaway and his hands were badly skinned and bruised. He then started to the tank expecting to take q freight train from there to Tucson. The tramps who brought in the news were fired from a train during the night and found the body this morn ing. The victim had been struck in the back of the head with a mesquite club. breaking his skull open half way round He had evidently been struck while sitting by the camp fire as no signs of a struggle werediscovered. After being struck the body was car ried fifty yards or so from the fire and thrown in q brush covered well and covered with his own clothing which had been taken off. No valuables or papers were found by the officers who went to the scene as soon as notified and nothing can be determined as to the mans identity The club used was burned last night by the tramps who found the body. No arrests have been made yet.
