CRIMINALS WHO ESCAPE.

The Kansas City Journal calls att tention to one class of criminals in Missouri and Kansas who cannot be punished by the laws and the courts of either State, if we are to judge by what has been done, or not done According to our contemporary. the man who as- saults, the man who robs, the man who forges, the man who picks pock- cts, the man who commits petty thefts is convicted and punished. in both these States. But for the boodler-the pub lie official who betrays his trust and sells his honor-there seems to be no prison door open"
 This Is a somewhat bitter arraign- ment, but it would not be safe to deny its truth. Attorney Joseph Fclk has convicted no less than nineteen of the St. Louis boodling Aldermen, some of them nearly two years ago, yet they are still at large through the instru- mentality of legal technicalities and other methods of delaying and defeat ing justice. As a companion piece The Journal mentions ten boodling officials who were indicted by grand jury in Kansas City. Kas.. and who were lib- erated without even a trial. Legal technicalities again interfered to thwart justice.
 It is a singular and not at all credit able condition of affairs thus disclosed. It seems that in either of these States g private individual who commits a crime can be punished for it. but an official with a pull-and perhaps with a pile--can always find means to es- cape punishment It Is not a pleasant or safe condition of affairs, and one which could not exist in Missouri if courts and juries would sustain Folk and do their duty as he has been doing his

Taylor Talks of Atlanta.

On my recent visit to Atlanta" said Police Captain w. H. Taylor Hast night, I had opportunity to study the re- markedly efficient police system of that city. believe Atlanta is better policed than any city in the South. First of all they have about 100000 people and 175 policemen. Montgomery has 5OO0O peo- pie and forty-nine policemen. Atlanta has eighteen mounted policemen and Montgomery has six. Atlanta has twenty live bicycle patrolmcn and Montgomery has four. Now you see that this is out of proportion. Atlanta has five patrol wagons, while we boast of none.
 'Ihe Georgia capital has a complete and modern Gamewell Fire alarm system while ours is obsolete. Atlanta has modern, healthy, convenient prison while you know what ours is. But I be- lieve the success of the department in the Gate City is due mainly to the laws The City Council has pressed all the creases out of the Code and they have laws that can be enforced. Take for instance their Sunday laws. No restaurant can be operated conjointly with a saloon and it is an offense for any person, proprietor or employe to enter saloon on Sunday for any purpose whatsoever The bar keepers are required to have their doors so arranged that on Sunday the entire store is In plain view of the police of- fcers.
 T interviewed a number of the saloon men of all classes and they are univer- sally satisfied and the citizens are satis- fled. 'They have good laws and good po- lice system''

lives live closely according to the Mo- saic law. The acts she described, she said, had greatly impeded the work of the missionaries.
 Miss Klein specifically exempted the Rev. Ernest Lyon, the United States consul at Monrovia, the capitol, from charges made against the other con sular officials, and paid high tribute to him.
 Mrs. Ellen Spencer Mussir, of Wash ington. D. C., discussed State Laws Pertaining to Adultery and Illegiti- macy" One great defect in the laws of many States, she said. Is that an illegitimate child cannot inherit from it's father even if the father has ac- knowledged his paternity. She strong ly commended the establishment of Juvenile courts.
 Mrs. Kate ". Barrett said that in New Jersey and Pennsylvania young girls are carefully protected by the laws governing criminal seduction, and in their administration, but in the South. she said, it Is almost impossi- ble to secure conviction under the law.
 Tonight H. H. Hart. of Chicago, talked of the duty of the community to illegitimate children. and pr. J. G. Kellogg and Dr. and Mrs. Paulson, of Battle Creek, Michigan, discussed the relation of health to moral regenera- ton.

EXPERTS DIFFER,

The Moseley commission has returned to England and reported on their ef- fort to find out how much our educa- tional system has to do with the phe- nomenal growth of the United States. The members of the commission were all experts and they differed as widely as experts commonly do. One man said we owed everything tc industrial schools; another that we owed indus trial schools nothing. One man thought the common schools worked the mira cle, and another the colleges. Still an other reported our progress was based on the universal interest in education and the willingness Of the American

Building for Y. M. c. A.

The building canvass for the Young Mems Christian Association is being carried on quietly but effectively by the Board of Directors Of that organization.
 The amount now subscribed Is consid- cEably over H5,000. and is being added to Galiy as the canvass is being systemat- ically conducted. The General Secretary, MT. Dix. said yesterday that he consid- cred the progress thus far exec ceedingly good as the total amount that has been raised has been pledged by only one hundred and four persons.
 We have met with very few whc. re- fused to subscribe, said Mr Dix, and in almost every instance those expressed regret because they were compelled to do so on account of other demands hay ing been made upon them. The majority of the citizens are yet to be seen. and within few weeks We hope to reach the S25.OOO mark and secure Mir. Peabody s pledge of $l0.0O0 to complete our fund"

FRIDAY, APRIL ae, 1904.
THEORIES OF HEARST.

Reading along as well as between the lines. there are three theories of Hearst, either of which is plausible end neither of which Is creditable. The first is that he really believes in him self. or takes himself seriously. This would hardly seem creditable were it not for the fact that there are exam ples all along the road of history from the earliest days of recorded time. In all ages there have been men who have thought themselves great and have believed themselves chosen and set apart to accomplish great things. Hearst may believe himself one of these. He may sincerely believe that he has within him clements of great ness which, coupled with much money, will enable him to accomplish anything. It must be borne in mind that he has never really lacked for anything that money could buy. Accustomed to ob- tain by purchase any object upcn which he had set his heart, pampered by the success of his hardly reputable news papers and puffed up with the praise of those who profit by him, it is perhaps not surprising that he looks on him self as man qualified to be President, and that he also believes that money will secure for him the office. It doesn't seem credible. but possibly he really believes in himself.
 Another theory is that he is fully aware of the absurdity of his ambitions, but is willing to accept all the ridicule of the country for the sake of adver- Using himself and his publications P. T. Rarnum, one of the most successful of all showmen, cared nothing for cen- sure. abuse or ridicule. for all of them advertised him and his business. What he wapted and what he was bound to have was notoriety. To keep his name before the public was his creed, and it may be that Hearst is posing as a Presidential candidate and spend- ing his money like water as a mere ad- yertising scheme. He may see himself as others see him. and at the same time accept it for the notoriety it gives him. Such an instance would not be NAthoub GAdAlpASS lO SuSNdln It.
 The third theory which has much to sustain 1t is that his hired boomers are playing him for a sucker" to use slang expression. Tn other words they are grafters. Not all of them, of course, for he has followers who are sincere in their devotion, and who ac- tually believe him all that he claims for himself. Others feed h1s vanity. pamper his self-conceit and aid him in his efforts to pose as a great man. all for the money that is in 1t for them. They find him an easy mark. a man who will come down handsomely and rich man to be worked as long as 1t yields profit. They have a fit subject, and if they laugh at his vanity while they are cashing his checks. 1t is merely one phase of human nature.
 As we have said. no one of these theories is creditable to Hearst, but either of them is plausible. But what ever is the true explanation of his course we must console ourselves with the reflection that the farce will soon be played out and then Willie will get down to his proper place in public es- timafion

people to make sacrifices in the cause. The only bad feature they united in 'condemning was the heavy preponder- ance of women in the teaching force. Let that pass. The real ground of American prosperity is found not in any system or systems of education. We have grown wonderfully because an energetic quick-witted race has been turned loose on an immense area of rich and varied soils. untouched mineral TO- sources. all lying in the temperate zone. The tariff hasn't worked the wonders, nor has education. Like Topsy, the United States has just growed."

The Horse is King.

Horseshoers' Journal.
 Last october the statistics on the num- Der of horses in the United States on January l, 1903, were published and giv- en to those most directly interested, the horseshoers. The statement of the Ma tional Statistician at Washington may be relied on as the most authentic that can be complied, and it was these which we published. There were in the United States on the date mentioned, 16557 ,373 horses. valued at $1,0S ,705.959 The in- crease in number over the previous year of 1902 was just 26.149. Mark it well. Now comes the same Washington authority and he knows, if anybody does-with his report of January l, 1904, and here are the figures which he gives of the number of horses in the country on the latter date:
 Total number of horses January l. 1904. 16 7S6 059. The difference in number be- tween 1903 and 1904 is just 17S.eS6 or an increase over the corresponding period of the previous year of 152.537 horses. Of values, a proportionate increase is seen. there being reported S1,136,9 ,949,29S worth of horsefesh in the country January l last. With the exception of 19(, when there were but S.664 more horses in the country than there are now, but the number is greater at the present time than was ever before reported, while in point of value the country Is richer in horsefesh today by $l06, ,235, ,339 than 1t ever was before rt'

CHARGES OF IMMORTALITY.

 Washington, April Exchanges of gross immortality on the part of con sular officers located in Liberia were made by Miss A. A. Klein, one of the speakers at today's session of the Florence Crittenden Mission. in a talk of Preventive Rescue Work for Girls in Africa"
 Miss Klein has been in Liberia as q missionary of tine Lutheran Church, stationed at Muhlenberg. 35 miles from the capitol, but almost infinitely re- moved, she explained, from the civili- zation of that city. She said foreign consuls, when on their way to the in terior on business, frequently stopped at her mission station, where she says, they would speak lightly of their li- centious excess. Native women, she said were regarded by these eonsuls as legitimate prey. criminal assaults were common, and in many instances, unconcealed.
