The press of the state is pretty well ac-
quainted with the State Charities Aid AS
sociation, and there has been no hesitancy
in criticising its methods
The Elizabeth Journal saws: "The diff
Guilty is that the State Charities Aid As
ISOLATION is body responsible to nobody,
and it can, therefore, make all sorts of
charges without mourning liability If it
were body of officials responsible to the
state, its members would look more care
fully into matters under its jurisdiction
or supervision, and would be much more
cautious about what they put into their
reports. Every year they make an indict-
ment, stating terrible things, but, as the
Jersey City Journal suggests, their
charges require liberal discount
The State Gazette says: 1T is possible
that the facts relative to the alleged exist
ing conditions in certain county jails have
been exaggerated by the secretary of the
State Charities Aid Association in his re-
port to the Governor. The charges, how
ever, are of enough importance to war
rant the most careful investigation on the
part of the state authorities, and if it dis
covered that the association in its report
has distorted the facts, the Governor
ought to be able to find some way to keep
that organization within reasonable and
truthful limits when it puts forth report
that is to take its place among state doc
uments.
ESSEX county has established a prece-
dent for the punishment of persons who
attempt suicide but fail to end Their
lives. Frank Carney, of Newark, took a
dose of poison, and an Essex grand jury
indicted him for misdemeanor. The de-
fence was that Carney was mentally ir.
responsible at the time he committed the
deed, but the Judge, in charging the jury,
said the only evidence to sustain the
claim was the word of the prisoner The
Judge said the indictment was founded
on good law, and as the prisoner admitted
the charge there was nothing for the jury
to do but to convict. And even with this
conviction before US, the question whether
suicide is q crime is still unsettled, and
steps are being taken to have this case re-
viewed by higher court. Just what is
to be gained by this review is not GER
tain. There is little doubt that the
man who attempts suicide is mentally
wrong at the time the deed is committed
He should, therefore, if he fails in his
effort to take his own life. be put where
his brain troubles would receive careful
attention. Many people are acquitted of
murder on the theory that they were in
sane when they committed the crime, but
in such cases they are put into asylums.
Why should not the would be suicide be
given the same chancef His crime is
against himself more than against any
one else. One thing is very certain, nc
number of convictions and imprisonments
will have any effect toward staying the
hand of the poor creature who, crazed by
real or imaginary woes, resorts to suicide
to end his troubles.

THE FIsHERY.-The season generally
allotted for fishing Ia rapidly passing
away, and so far results have been very
mea gre, But few fish are arriving and
at present the outlook Ia gloomy. Fish
town is still In q state OF expectancy
or, more properly, the operators are
hoping against hope--and apart from
q few colored men and women who had
gone to angling while waiting for jobs
cutting herring, everything seemed oil
a etsndstill this morning. Reports
from below are discouragiDg, and when
1t Is realized that the middle of April
has bsen reached time when the sea-
son should be at its height, but little
hope can be entertained of future re
suits. 1t Is true that many fish may be
caught later Cd, but in the natural Or
der OF things bot weather will be pre-
valling at the same time, and those who
have no facilities for striking the
catches on the stores may have them
spoil on their hands. A few sbad, he's
ring and rock have been received since
yesterday, but not enough to influence
prices toward lower scale.
