But there are different kinds Of insan

but lneTe are 0lHerenI KINGS OF lnSan.
ity.4 Broadly speaking any man is in
sane who has, lost control of himself so
far, that even for the moment, he forgets
or disregards consequences. VIM. Barry
has all his life been of ungovernable and
wicked temper. With that temper coup
led with his immense strength it is as
much accident as any thing else that he
has not killed someone previons to this
in the numerous fracases in which he
has participated.
The point that we have been leading
up to is this, that the sort of emotional
insanity that afflicted VIM. Barry can be
controlled by the victim if he begins soon
enough and stays with it. The trouble
with Barry was that all his life long he
had given way to His temper and when
he was angry, for the time he was insane
to the extent that he had no fear of con-
sequences. And it is fact that almost
any man can give his passions the same
loose rein until they control him, instead
of being under his control. as nature in.
tended.
The remedy, as far as the public have
to defend themselves against this SOFT oi
lunacy, is to make punishment sure and
swift
But in the present-and in many other
cases the punishment is neither swift nor
sure. In American jurisprudence it is a
fact that if the accused has; money he can
and does delay the punishment in almost
every case, and often cheats the gallows.
Every man should have fair trial, but

cry, through which the skilled lawyer
may obtain new trials for clients who
have been declared guilty after a fair
trial, through some small technical error
of the judge, jury or attorney, which in
fact does not in any way affect the real
issue of the guilt or innocence of the &C.
cused.
In this criticism we do not refer espec-
tally to the action of our own state court
in this particular case;it is the general
fact in all state courts. and each follows
the decisions Of the other. Justice should
hold her scales balanced. But in GRIM
inal case the state" has no appeal to the
supreme court while the limit of the ap
peals of the criminal appear to be only
measured by his money and the bright
ness of his attorneys.
In such appeals for new trials the ac-
cused has everything to win and nothing
to lose. A second jury is likely to ,disa-
gree and the third to acquit, as records
show, and as time rolls on the senses Of
the public, and Of the jurymen who are
selected from the public, get dulled and
what was heinous crime of one, two
or three years ago, becomes mere mis-
demeanor--while emotional insanity, /"
resulting in cold plooded murders and
long, drawn-out, repeated and expensive
trials, increases.

NORTHERN
SECURITIES
Petition Heard to Intervene in
the Suit of the Federal
Government.

ST. Paul, April 70 Before the u.
s. circuit court for the district of
Minnesota today hearing was had
on petition on the part of f. Ell. Har-
riman and Winslow Pierce for per-
mission to intervene III the suit of the
federal government against the
Northern Securities Company in or
der to prevent, if possible, the Secu-
rites company from making the pro-
posed ratable distribution of the rail
way stock held by it.
That is the technical description
of the action, but back of this there
is a bitter struggle for supremacy by
two of the most powerful financial
groups, in the world.
The question at issue will decide
the fate of the Northern Pacific whe-
Their it is to remain in the control of
the Morgan-Hill group, or whether
the Hartman interests will succeed
in getting back the property which
they originally held.
The securities people will proceed
on the theory that the Hartman in
terests made a bona fide sale of the
Northern Pacific stock to the Securi-
ties company and, therefore, the secu-
rites company is under no obligation
to return it.
The technical owner of the North
Short line railway company, a Harri-
man property. The Hartman inter
ests offer to return to the Northern
Securities company all the stock of
that company which they hold togeth-
er with the $S,915,65 bonus paid by
the merger people and demand in re-
turn the original Northern Pacific
stock held, valued at about 100000.
When court convened today the
Hartman interests were represented
by w. d. Guthrie, prominent cor
poration attorney, John F. Dillon and
Judge Baldwin. The Northern Secu-
rites company was represented by

trothed had not forgotten to bring

TO MAKE BRIBERY OF LA
Dor LEADERS A CRIME.
Chicago Record-Herald.

The debasement of business morals
and the industrial decentralization re-
sulting from bribery of labor repre-
sentatives by employers of labor, az
revealed in the great strike in the
building trades In New York and in
other labor controversies, have sug-
gested the necessity for regulation at
the hands of the criminal law.
In the New York strike in the build
Ing trades it was claimed that if
teen out of seventeen firms composing
the Cabinet makers Association con-
trlbuted very large sum of money
which was used 70 bride certain del
egates In the United Board Of Build
ing Trades, of which the Amalgamat-
ed PAINTERS We're member, to admit
the brotherhood of Painters, which
at that time was not represented in
the board The object was TO enable
the employers to break the strike that
was on by employing brotherhood
painters, whom they had not been
able to employ before without causing
sympathetic strike, the brotherhood
not being represented In the United
Board of Building Trades.
The iniquity of such transactions
has been recognized in civil proceed
ings. But the evil has now grown to
such magnitude and is so clearly
against pnblis policy as to call for
legislation making it crime for any
one to give a labor representative
anything of value to influence his ac-
ton in calling strikes or in sending
men back to work when they are out
on strike. go %
TO accomplish this purpose the
Prince bill was introduced in New
York assembly. 1t seeks to extend
the statutes already IN force against
the bribery of public officials to the
authorized representatives of labor.
In commenting favorably upon the
bill IN an article In The Commons.
William Travers Jerome. district at
torney of New York City declares
that the moral obliquity of a labor
representative selling out the inter
ests of his organization, or of a per-
son bribing him to do so, is as great
and the same in kind as where it is
sought TO corrupt a public officer. .,
Should the Prince bill become a law
Mr., Jerome believes that it may be
found desirable late on to extend its
principle to purchasing agents of in
dustrial concerns and to persons act-
ing as agents and in a representative
capacity IN all classes of business.

SCYTHES AS CHURCH
ORNAMENTS
(From the Christian Age.)

(From the Christian Age.
At first sight the scythe is a
strange ornament for a church, but
there is nothing homogeneous in these
curious agricultural implements as
seen in the parish church of st.
Mary s, ut Horncastle, In Lincoln
shire. Thirteen of these blades are
nailed above the door in the north
chapel At one time the blades num-
bered forty, but owing to rust and
decay many of them have been lost.
Each of the scythes is about a yard
in length. SsE ia
The general belief is that these
blades wrere placed in the church in
commemorative OF The zeal Of peas
ants who welded them in defense of
| their faith in the rebellion known as
"The Pilgrimage of Grace,' which
had its rise at Louth in 1886. When
the people saw the ruins of their
churches and abbeys they rose in re-
volt, and, arming themselves with the
instruments of husbandry such as the
scythes, they went forth to encounter
the enemy. They were beaten and
dispersed, but in the eyes of their
countrymen they were heroes. and the
rude implements with which they
fought were deemed worthy of an
abiding place in the old church where
the peasants had worshipped.

A RIDE TO WHITEWATER NOT
AS SUCCESSFUL AS AN

BECAUSE rig"
BROKE DOWN
Some One Took Sheriff Smith S Hat,
the Only One He Had, Etc.

Last evening the Whitewater COM
mencement exercises occurred and it
was quite success. Four gentlemen
of this city attended the exercises,
but their trip was not as successful
as were the exercises after they got
there.
In the afternoon OF yesterday Lee
B. Nusbaum. Oliver Nusbaum, c. W.
Jordan and H. J. Hanes. with Mr..
Nusbaum s two horses and carriage
left for Whitewater Of course they
were all in buoyant spirits, and, as
the quartet logged along the pike
they could hear. as it were the reel
tations, music, ETC.. at the commence
ment, and their minds wandered back
to the days when they appeared be-
fore the footlights at the end of
school,
When about four miles from Rich
mond, almost out Of the glare of the
|electric lights, Mr. Nusbaum who was
driving and who was also to make a
speech, began rehearsing his lines,
when, suddenly, and without warn
ing, the wheels went into a chuck
hole and the carriage was cut in
twain, neither part of which could be
used for transportation.
Some members of the party at
tribute the accident to the weight of
Mr.. Nusbaum s speech, the manu-
of the seat, while others said it was
due to the combination of characters
The Palladium has the word of Ell.
j. Hanes and Supt. Jordan that, aside
from Mr.. Nusbaum s speech, feed for
the horses was the only other heavy
article IN the vehicle.
However, they borrowed a rig In
the neighborhood, and, after spending
an hour making preparations, started
on the journey to Whitewater, which
they finally reached in safety Supt
Jordan led one to believe there was
about four feet of snow along the
pike.
Another on DICK.
Sheriff Smith attended court yes
terday afternoon, ,yhich is nothing
unusual-the unusual thing about it
being that he lost the. only hat he
had. Some of the people about the
court room told him certain reporter
had the hat and Dick felt somewhat
relieved thinking of course the hat
would turn up all right. And that s
where he was wrong. When the said
reporter entered the court room this
morning Dick accused him of taking
his hat. OF course it was hard to
convince hi motherwise, but the hat
that was left for Dick to wear no re-
porter would be guilty of wearing.
The Palladium believes it knows who
has the hat.
