Catering to Morbid Tastes.

Last Saturday a young woman
leased from custody by New York Justice
after a preliminary examination into a
charge that she had killed a man. The
case had been holding the attention of the
sensation-loving public for many days, and
Immediately upon this conclusion of the
first, and perhaps the last. stage, an enter
prising theatrical manager instituted an en-
terprise to secure the central figure in the
affair as an attraction" While the sug-
gestion is naturally a shock to sensitive ma
lures, it follows logical line Of business
deduction. The stage has profited finan-
cially, even IL not artistically and morally,
gardless of their talents, women who have
figured in sensational divorce or homicide
cases or other affairs more or less closely
identified with crime, have been snapped
up eagerly while the public interest was
fl esh and exhibited In dramatic productions
In other days there was simpler and
less Objectionable manner of exploiting the
Questionable herolnes of the latest excite
ment Seated upon platforms In dime mu-
seums, they posed while managers or '1ec-
turers"f expatiated upon the dramatic cir
cumstances of their lives. They sold their
photographs and the crowd CAPPED and was
content. That was a direct. honest trans
action, however unwholesome 1t may have
been. 1t did no violence to an institution
which should be carefully guarded from
such intrusions ami the standards of which
should be scrupulously preserved. It recog-
nized that the public wants to gaze upon
the latest sensational parsonage. whether
murderer or victim. villain or hero. saint or

Campaign Funds and Suffrage.

Mr. Pou of North Carolina thinks it a fit
ting reply to the Crumpacker resolution to
propose an investigation as to the amount
of money used by the republican party in
the campaigns of 1896 and 1900. His propo-
sition is amenda bic, and if the House should
decide to order the inquiry its scope should
be enlarged to embrace the expenditures OF
all the political parties, just as the Crum-
packer resolution proposes an inquiry into
certain conditions in all the states. The
committee could then proceed without fear
or favor. and give the country the benefit
of some valuable information.
1t is the common belief that far too much
money is spent in our political campaigns.
II is a growing evil and many men deplore
it. But that. in the matter of the principle
involved. one party has any advantage
over the other is altogether unlikely. Both
have probably been using all that they
could collect. Neither has disguised its
needs in campaign years, and gentlemen
with fat wallets have felt the pressure of
partisan solicitations. If the republicans
spent more than their opponents in the last
two presidential races it was solely because
they were able to collect more. Their is
sues appealed to the moneymakers The
democrats. We may be sure, spent all that
they could raise, and they were open and
aboveboard in asking for contributions.
Now Mr.. Pou may live some distance
from the big road, but he ought 10 know
this. He ought also to know that his party
friends are just seeking man for
the craftsmanship Of their congressional
campaign committee who is in touch with
the big moneyed interests of the country.
The fact is widely advertised. There are
many democrats of personal attra ctiveness
and excellent organizing capacity, but they
are strangers in Wall street and have no
speaking acquaintance with the corpora
tons and trusts. The man for the emer-
gency must know where money grows and
how to reach it. For money makes the
party go. Will this man when found have
his iabors facilitated by Mr.. Pous resolu-
ton? VIII the money-makers respond to
his partys appeals with the greater alac-
rity because of this proposition to investi-
gate and make public all such transac-
tons?
The justice OF the Crumpacker resolution
becomes all the more apparent in the light
OF the replies that have been made to it.
First. the talk about force bill, which is
nonsense. Then the talk about negro domi-
nation. which is simply puerile. And now
this talk about the use of money In cleo
lions. which has no sort of bearing on the

The Change-of-Date Movement

The meeting here on the 18th of April of
the national committee to forward the work
OF securing a change of the inauguration
date should produce practical results. The
committee has now been organized effec-
lively and on the broadest possible basis.
1t includes forty of the state executives
and other men prominent in national affairs
as well as the citizens of the District most
familiar both with the necessity for a
change and with the history of past efforts
to secure the amendment. The cooperation
of the governors will doubtless prove OF
great value in the work. They furnish the
lines OF direct communication with the
legislatures. whose approval of the prop
osttion Is essential. The objections to the
proposed change are few and weak and
they have not been urged with any degree
or assurance during this latest revival OF
the enterprise. They have been promptly
answered. while a constant stream of favor
able comment has poured from the press OF
the entire country. Indicating that at last
the idea has taken hold of the public mind.
This is not one OF the matters that can
be safely postponed from session to session
of Congress. Should the Initiative be taken
at this end and the House pass and the
President approve this spring or summer
the joint resolution already passed by the
Senate proposing the amendment TO the
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1902-03-28
An Exclusion Act for the District.

In another part of The Star today will
be found an article descriptive and ex-
planatory of the bill now pending in the
Senate proposing a law for the District to
punish persons of evil dispositions and
criminal habits who congregate in this
jurisdiction. This bill is designed to sup
plement the law affected by decision of
Justice Bradley in a case carried before
him. He ruled that 1t was unlawful to
hold a person merely on suspicion in the
absence of a specific action or charge. This
decision was fully confirmed by the court
of appeals. The police authorities, fear
ing lest this ruling would limit the range
OF their Jurisdiction over the criminals
against whom no charges rest, sought the
enactment of law which while recogniz-
Ing the principles laid down In Justice
Bradley's ruling, might yet hold against
the persons of wel-known criminal char
acter who flock to this city at times Of
large gatherings. The pending bill is the
result of that effort.
Mr.. Taggart, who drew the bill has ex-
amined with great care into the precedents
afforded by decisions, and reaches the con-
clusion that it will stand the scrutiny of
the courts. His statement in explanation
OF the bin and its scope Is important at
hA'o otoSc VI lLc CdSc- IL dlIOIuS d DdSlS
for a confident procedure, such as Is earn
estly desired by the District authorities
Next October the Grand Army of the Re
public will assemble here for several days
and the gathering will doubtless attract
large number of swindlers and crooks
of all classes, many Of them known to the
police and others whom it Is possible soon
to identify If 1t be found impossible con-
stitutionally to frame a law which will
exclude them or permit their punishment
IF they enter the District without a per
NIT, the police can only walt until they
commit some overt act and then arrest
until a specific warrant is sworn out
against them
IL remains to be seen, as a result of a
test case. whether such a law falls within
the constitutional guarantees to the indi-
Vidual 1t is important that the doubt be
cleared by actual enactment and enforce
ment. leading to final decision by the
courts If successful. the effort would
probably not only lead to better conditions
In the District at all times but 1t would
encourage other Jurisdictions to employ the
same means of exclusion. The result would
be a steady rounding-up of the potential
malefactors and the limiting of their scope.
There are strong possibilities for the per
mansnt reduction of the crime rate in
such a law, wisely enforced.
