AN INTERESTING CASE.

An interesting life insurance case is
about TO be tried in Kentucky, John
Thompson owed a banker. William
Graves, a sum of money. To secure the
obligation Thompson assigned TO
Graves a $4,000 life insurance policy.
Not long afterward Thompson ana
Graves became involved in an alterca-
ton about the debt. The result was
that Graves drew a revolver and killed
Thompson.
The question is. not as to the validity
Of the policy, but as to who the money
should be paid TO. It is claimed by the
administrator of Thompson's estate IN
the ground that Graves. although the
killing was held 10 have been commit
ted in self-defense, cannot profit by his
act. Graves claims that the unfortun-
ate fact that he was obliged to Kill
Thompson IN defense Of his life can
have no effect or the obligation due
from Thompson. although the killing
made the immediate collection OF the
debt possible.
The insurance company has refused
20 pay the money 10 either claimant
without an order OF court. and it is
right The question is rather a nice
one. and the outcome OF the suit will
doubtless be awaited with much inter
est by lawyers and others.

newspaper reporter went to see the

mayor is alarmed over the large num-
Der of cases of suicide in his city, tie

struction and he has appointed what

hope OF receiving aid.
People who really contemplate suicide
are not apt 10 say anything about it to
anybody. They usually make up their
minds 10 die and then shuttle off by the
most convenient route. All the COM
missions in the country could not put d
stop to the practice. Nevertheless. the
Cleveland experiment will arouse a
good deal of interest and, if it accom-
plishcs nothing else. it will bring forth
many arguments against suicide. Some
of them may prevent a few fools from
killing themselves TOO.

GOVERNOR HERRIcK's VIEW.

One thing stands out very clearly IN
Governor Herriek's remarks on the
outcome of the election i'm Ohio That
is. he is very sorry indeed that he was
defeated, He is cJreful to say, though.
that his sympathy is not for himself.
but for the thousands OF Republicans
lWho voted for him. The loss is theirs,
bot his, IN the opinion of Governor
1Ierrick. The executive finds in the re-
suits in Ohio and elsewhere an evidence
of too great willingness on the part Of
the public to follow after strange gods.
lie says:
4 ''rhe greatest danger now confront
pug the American people is the readi-
hess. in response to some sudden whim
or pretext, TO desert party principles
and follow some individual who claims,
sometimes with sincerity, often with
hypocrisy. 10 represent a cause that
IS higher than party feaity. This spirit
which would deery party government
and party responsibility, and establish
Individual leadership IN its stead. may
advance some personal ambitions, but
can accomplish 10 good TO society. 1t
offers the most fruitful field for the
q demagogue and the icouociast and
while some good men may be swept
into power upon a popular wave that
overrides principle, the strain upon out
Institutions and upon the fundamental
s.k haF af ,4t~
government will leave the structure
rather weaker than stronger.
The individual who in seeking self
advancement is willing TO allure the
cies OF government to the adulation
IF a popular idol is an enemy of his
.Ountry. The newspaper which, in or
Ter to swell the receipts of the count
ng room. is willing to pander TO sensa-
lionalism, to deceive the people and
play upon the credulity of the unthink-
ing, is an enemy of mankind
We agree with Governor HerTick in
SO far as his contention that party re-
sponsibility is more satisfactory than
individual responsibility goes But the
lesson OF the elections is that the par
lies must keep themselves clean. The
politicians have been taught this year,
as they were never taught before, that
the American voter is beginning to
think for himself, that he does not fol-
ow blindly any theory because it is
Republican theory or a Democratic
theory.
The time has come when the voter
asks. Is it right? rather than Is it
democratic or Is it Republican? The
man who votes a ticket merely be-
cause it is a party ticket, or supports
a principle merely because it Is a party
principle. is becoming almost as much
lut of date as the newspaper that is
out a party hack. After ALL party
principles. are usually formulated by /
very few men, just as nominations are
usually made by very few men.
The principle makers and the candi-
late makers are "a liable TO err as any
other human beings, and the rank and
lie have the right to dissent when they
10 not agree. No party can succeed in
his country any longer unless it is a
lean party. The boss has had a very
Ong day. the CRATER has had long
lay. but the sunset for both is at-hand.
