CONVICTION OF GRIFFITH.

7 OS ANGELES is to be congratulated
l. on the conviction Of Colonel Grif-
fifth J. Griffith. the capitalist who tried
some time ago to kill his wife and all
but succeeded. Griffith is man Of
considerable wealth. and up % the time
Of his murderous assault or his wife he
had a high standing I'm his community.
As soon as he was arrested he began
using all the power OF his wealth TO
save himself from the punishment he
deserved. BY one means and another
ne actually managed 10 evade being
tried for more than two years.
This was of course in the hope that
witnesses might be dispersed and the
case of the prosecution so weakened as
10 make conviction impossible. Never
theiess, the prosecution proved that he
went home in mad rage, that he COM
PEELED his wife 90 kneel before him and
answer some questions he had written
out on a card, one of them being a re-
quest to know IL she had ever attempt
ed TO poison him. When she replied TO
this question in the negative he drew
revolver and fired bullet into her
head.
BY great good fortune for Mrs Crit
fifth the ball was detected and the
wound failed to prove fatal. She ran
from the room. leaped from a balcony
and escaped. Ever since then her hus-
band has been lodging a final hearing.
AS it is he has been convicted only Of
assault with a deadly weapon" and
not of assault with a deadly weapon
with intent to commit murder although
murder was obviously his intent. The
penalty may be confinement in the pen
itentiary for two years or fine Of not
more than $1,000.
Tt is to be hoped that the prison SEN
tence viii be inflicted. for a fire would
not be much punishment for a man Of
Colonel Grimth's wealth. There is no
reason why he should not be compelled
10 pay the full penalty for his crime. It
IS hardly possible 20 diferentiate in
cases Of Wife beating and attempts by
husbands to murder wives, but If such
differentiation could be made it should
be against Griffith ard men of his kind.
Men of wealth have even less excuse
for beating their wives than laboring
men. because the former have more OPP
portunities to know what unspeakable
beasts WIFE beatsrs are

CLEVELAND Is vInprcA1Ep.

IT REALLY WASN'T FAIR for Rep
L resentatve Scott of Kansas to at
tempt to strip from ex-President
Cleveland the last vestige OF the affee-
ton in which he has been held in the
south by asserting that while he was
president Mr.. Cleveland had a negro.
c. II. J. Taylor Of Kansas City. TO
luncheon with him at the White House
Furthermore, as the subsequent de-
velopments show, Mr.. Cleveland did not
have Taylor at his table. The report
was false from beginning to end.
In the house yesterday Representa-
tive webb Of North Carolina read a
letter from Mr.. Cleveland on this sub
ject In this letter the ex-president
SAID:
1T is a matter of small concern to
me that Mr.. Scott has seen fit to use
my name in a display of his evil pro-
pensities on the floor OF the house of
representatives In answer TO your in
quiry. however, / have 70 say OF his
statement that the colored man, c. II.
j. Taylor took lunch with me at the
White House, that it is a deliberate
Justification out Of the whole cloth.
I As far as Mr.. Taylor is concerned, L
understand. prior to his appointment
as register of deeds at Washington,
that he had served az an assistant in
he Office of The city attorney at Kan
sas City. His nomination as register
was confirmed by the senate and he
served in that place with intelligence
and with efficiency. He has since died.
Some people restrain themselves from
abusing the dead.
My inquiries concerning Mr.. Taylor
before his appointment, my observa-
ton Of him during his incumbency and
the little I nave known Of him since.
convince Inc that his character is very
unjustly attacked in the diatribe Of
Mr. Scott. One charge is made against
Mr. Taylor By NJ. Scott which he
doubly clincles with truth when he
declares: He was a black negro 1
am led, however, to doubt his familiar
ity with his subject when he adds, AS
black as you ever saw
Speaking to the letter Mr.. Webb said:
Mr.. Cleveland was a friend OF the
negro. but not a fool friend. He never
by word or action encouraged the
dream Of social equality in the breast
of the black man" 1t is difficult to
understand how the story told by Rep
1esentative scott was started unless
he himself imagined it. And Mr. Scott
became sorely tangled when asked
where he acquired his information.
When finally pinned down he was
forced to admit that though he claimed
he had read the report in "a number
Of newspapers some years ago. he could
not give the name of a single paper
in which he had seen it.
If Mr. Cleveland needed any 'vindi-
cation" he has, certainly received it in
SCOTS own testimony.

CAssINrs BuEco GAME.

( CUNT CASSINI, the Russian am
- bassadOr, expresses grief and
amazement that the people of the Unit
ed States should have forgotten the
! traditional friendship Of the two coun-
tries so far as to sympathize with ia
pan In the present crisis. In the same
issue OF the American papers which
| contained the Counts plant was a
statement from the japanese minister
which explains the situation exactly
Russia has no one TO thank for her
friendless situation but herself If
when she promised to evacuate Man
churia she had shown anything like
good faith there would have been no
war and no alienation of American
sympathy. Pretext after pretext was
advanced for her failure to keep this
promise of evacuation and still Mr..
Hay, the American secretary Of state
kept up negotiations for the fulhllment
OF Russian promises although he must
nave known, as all the chancellories
OF Europe knew, that Russia had no
intention of relinquishing her grasp on
Manchuria, but that. TO the contrary
Russia's next move would be on Ko-
rea, then on Pel<in and the Chinese
empire.
Nations can no more escape their
records than can individuals: and Rus
STA has established a reputation for
peridy in her diplomatic relations
which dates back to the days of the
Great Peter. Japan parleyed with the
Bear as long as she could with safety
20 herself; then she undertook to fight
the war of all the treaty nations that
were party to the agreement Russia
made that She would respect the in
tegrity Of the Chinese empire.
1T is no wonder that not only the
United states. but Great Britain as
wei, sides with the japanese and hopes
they will win. Victory for the little
brown men means a freedom Of trade
I'm Manchuria and China that can be
won only by Russian defeat.
\ significant fact in the situation
is that Russia views with disfavor the
sending OF American consuls to DaIny
and Mukden. The excuse for this is
that a state of war exists and the con-
suIs would ma it incouvenient to do
business or live in these places. Muk-
den, IL may be observed. is in Man
chm'ia. and might properly be sup
posed to pertain solely to China in dip
lomatie affairs, whereas in fact Rus
STA Is dominant and China has as lit
tie TO say about the administration in
Mukden as it has in Washington. al
though MulIden is the old capital and
commercial center of the northern en-
pire.
Count Cassini makes an ingenious
plea: but no rhetoric or diplomatic
evasion can divert attention from the
bad faith Of Russia, not only toward
the United States but toward every ma |
ton which holds Russian pledges as
to the preservation of China from dis
memberment.

PRESIDENT SMITHS TESTIMONY

y RESIDENT JOSEPH i. SMITHS
testimony in Washington yester-
day seems to have come as a surprise
10 the members Of the committee and
the eastern public generally. In brief. he
admitted that he has had children born
by each of his five wives since Presi-
dent Woodruf's manifesto of 1890: that
ne knew he was violating the law and
was ready TO face the consequences.
This, i'm addition to his declaration of
the day before that he considered the
original manifesto on polveamv as
right. naturally excited interest in the
committee hearing, so that a police
man was necessary to preserve order
at the entrance TO the committee
rooms.
To those who have been familiar with
the conditions here. President Smiths
evidence is the inevitable. 1t has been
commonly known that he was living in
polygamy. No attempt at concealment
has been made of the fact. To deny it
was useless, even if he had been so dis
posed, and no one ever accused him Of
evasion ON that subject, To admit DO
lygamous living was tantamount to
saying he believed it right and proper.
even if it is in plain violation Of the
statute.
On one point the committees final
decision must be of the utmost import
ance: President Smith said the adnis-
sion of Utah as a state provided as a
condition that no polygamous mar
riages should be permitted, but that it
did not involve any pledge as to poIyg-
amOus relations with wives married be-
fore the admission Of the state. THAT
is to say. cohabitation with wives
married before statehood involved no
violation OF the enabling act or the
statutes enacted in conformity with
the enabling act. This is a new con-
struction, both of the spirit and the
letter OF the pledges given by Utah 10
secure statehood; and the thousands
who disagree with President Smiths
Interpretation will await the commit
tees ruling ON this point with anxious
interest.
The chief point of the proceedings so
far is the fact that Senator Shoots
answer to the charges against him was
So broad. il denied so much, that it
literally threw down the bars for the
introduction OF questions on every
thing pertaining to the Mormon church.
its leaders and its relations to society.
Legally. Senator Smoot is entitled 10
his seat without any question; actually,
the course the hearing is taking prom
Uses 10 make his seat insecure if it
does not deprive him OF IL entirely.
Under the circumstances. it may well
be questioned whether the gratihca-
tion Of Mr.. Shoots ambition to be a
United States senator is worth the ter
rifle price the people of Utah and the
dominant church are now paying for it.
