Insane Journalism.

Somehow it doesn't strike one as wise
for the new journalism" to exult over
the fact that one of it's representatives
found no difficulty at all in convincing
the experts at Bellevue that he was
mildly insane, and not a proper person
to be at liberty Probably good many
people will be more disposed to criticise
the examining doctors for releasing the
manufacturer of cheap sensation than
for admitting that he showed all the
characteristic symptoms of disordered
mind. Taking the case as it stands,
such derisive laughter as it excites will
be directed at the too successful imi-
tator of imbeciles, and his employers,
and not at the alienists whose mistake,
If mistake it was. hardly requires excuse
or explanation.
