AnArE THE EVILS.

II will do no good to nisrepreseht
the report Of the majority OF the ponce
and prison committee Of the City coun-
Gil, as attempted by some OF our con-
temporaries, Dissent from the views
OF the committee is TO be expected,
and fair criticism Is all right But II Is
-ot true, as anyone may prove by
reading the report TO the council, that
Il contained denial Of any immoral
ity In the city. or statement that all
the hold-ups accounts of which had
been published In the newspapers We're
fakes.
The report showed that the evils
existing had been grossly exaggerated.
That Is positively true. The mon
strous stories about kids visiting the
dens In Victoria alley. and the terrible
tale about bushels Of letters Of a certain
kind in DR.. Payne's Office, are depreeat-
ed because they are false and their
publication Is injurious. The two fab
relations are related. because they were
inventions Of the same paper, and re-
Elected on the moral status Of the
community.
Ii is Of no use for that paper to at
tack the police committee, who had Of
ficially investigated these matters and
very properly reported their findings.
Distortlng their statements will not
make true the published stories that
were atroclously false. Neither the
committee nor the Deseret News has
opposed proper inquiry into actual con-
ditions. On the contrary both have
recommended them. The objection Is
to falsehood and exaggeraton.
One paper today tries TO throw odlum
on what 1t calls "TEe Fernstrom Res
olution," and then In so many words
actually supports that very resolution.
The report Of the committee makes a
denial Of the exaggeratlons OF certain
newspapers, but admits the existence
here Of social evils and proposes the
reference Of the matter to a grand jury
for full investigation. The paper that
attacks Mr.. Fenstrom, who is but one
OF the three gentlemen that signed the
report, and Of six who voted for It. af-
ter ridiculing the resolution. actually
but unwlttingly. endorsed the only
recommendation 1t contains, by approx
Ing Of the grand jury idea. and stating
that, ~ the jury is in earnest II can
do a great deal OF good by reporting
on existing evils and recommending
remedies for them" So much for con-
sistency In criticism.
We are In favor Of official inquiry.
Not however with a view 10 either

the Town Marshal.

Elyria, O., Nov. 14-Marshal Henry
Krohm was seriously shot and an I'M
known burglar had his head blown off
in a battle here early today. The
shooting occurred during a fight with
four robbers who completely terrorized
the town. The gang stole horses and
rigs. entered several houses anG shot
recklessly in a wild charge down the
main street of the town.
J. E. Baird was awakened by
burglars in his house He got up and
saw two masked men standing on
either side of his bed. Drawn revolvers
were pointed at his head, but in spite
of this he jumped from bed and Crap
pied with the intruders In the dark
ness they broke away and fled from
the house.
The burglars then entered the home
of Town Marshal Krohm who opened
fire on them. When he had shot three
times, one of the robbers who had
jumped into a buggy, got out and be
gan blazing away at the marshal At
the third shot the latter fell with 4
bullet through his hips.
Baird who had meantime arrived at
the scene, picked up the officers gun
and continued firing. The robbers.
however drove rapidly away.
Baird followed them to the home of
Superintendent w. J. Hitler. of the
Cleveland. Elyria & Western railway
Even when Baird again opened fire on
the robbers they walked into the house,
after smashing in the door. The noise
on the street aroused Hitler and he
reached for his Gun, loaded with quail
shot.
A burglar cautiously opened the door
and Hitler blew his head off with the
first discharge. The other robber turn
ed and ran but Hitler DISCHARGED the
second barrel The robber yelled and
tottered. but did not fall. He ran into
the street and isapDeared.
A posse was at once formed and IS
pursuing the robbers

how badly the other robber is hurt.

ZIONISM.
The Question Which It Is Said Di
vides the Hebrews.

The one poirt which probably forever
excludes the possibility of an under
standing between Zionist and non-Zfon-
list Jews is the question of the Jewish
nationality. Whoever maintains and
believes that the Jews are not nation
can indeed be no Zionist he cannot join
a movement which is only justified when
it is admitted that it desires to create
normal conditions of existence for a
people living and suffering under alb
normal conditions. He who. on the con-
trary is convinced that the Jews are a
people must necessarily become Zion
ist as only the return to their own
prosecuted and oppressed Jewish nation
from physical and intellectual destruc-
t;oa
Many Jews, especially those of the
west have in their heart of hearts COM
pletely broken with Judaism. and they
will probably soon do so openly, and If
they do not break away their children or
grandchildren viii. These desire to be
entirely absorbed by their Christian fell
low countrymen. They resent it as a
great annoyance when other Jews pro-
claim they are a people apart and de-
sire to bring about an unequfvocal sep
aration between themselves and the
other nations. Their great and constant
fear is to be denounced as strangers in
the land Of their birth, of which they
are free citizens. They fear that this
will be more than ever the case if a
large section of the Jewish people openly
claim for themselves rights as an au-
tonomous nation. and, still worse, Il
anywhere in the world a political and
intellectual center of Judaism should
really be created, in which millions OF
Jews would be grouped together, united

ALL ON THE SQUARE.
No Evidences of Dishonesty APP
pear in Boston Failure.

Washington. Nov. IA statement
concerning the closing of the Central
National bank of Boston was issued at
the comptroller of the currency office
today. 1t says the bank was closed by
direction of the acting comptroller of the
currency as result of a conference by
telephone late last night with Examiners
Neil and Ever of Boston. The acting
comptroller has appointed A. w. Neal as
temporary receiver. The statement re-
cites that the bank was examined Sep
TENDER II last, and while the examiner <
report showed losses equal to surplus
and undivided profits then on hand,
/ there was no evidence of insolvency
Certain conditions were then imposed
upon the bank with view to providing
for losses and securing the bank
against further loss on its loans. Later
it was determined to place the institu-
ton in voluntary liquidation by having
another bank in Boston take over its
assets and assume its deposit liabilities
and it was thought that arrangements
to this end were being carried out until
the acting comptroller received a dis
patch from Examiner Neal yesterday
that efforts to liquidate had failed. The
failure. the S.atenent says is due to
losses sustained. There is no apparent
dishonesty On the part of the officers of
the bank so far as the records of the
controllers Office show.
Boston, Nov. 14.--The failure of nego-
tiations for the Eliot National bank to
liquidate the Central National is under
stood to have contributed to the failure
as we'll to the fact that the bank
never fully recovered from a blow it
received twenty years ago when with
the Pacific bank, which failed at that
time, it was involved in the collapse of
the Lebanon Springs railroad in Yer
mont. The Central bank then lost $780,
600 and an assessment Of about 100 per
cent was made upon the stockholders
and no dividends were paid for thirteen
years.
The failure of the bank showed that
progressing favorably. a meeting of the
Central bank stockholders had been
called for December 10 to approve the
plan for the Eliot National bank to take
over the business Upon investigation
however, President Burrage of the Eliot
bank and his board Of directors refused
to accept the assets of the Central bank
as security for any guarantee of the
