COLLEGE AND BRUTALITY.

The Kenyon college case and the
naval academy case are naturally dis
cussed together There is little rcsen.
blance in the facts. In the academy
one of a pack of little fools under
gong initiation in a college fraternity
by the rest was left stunned and bound
where h was killed by an unforeseen
special train.
In he other case TWO cadets be-
tween whom there was bad blood
fought with hard gloves in a room
with naval lieutenant for umpire IN
III enc of them was k He'd and the
other so disabled that he has not yet
been able TO appear for examination
The common point OF interest is me
attitude Of the governing bodi S Of the
two colleges
II IS uudeniable that The smaller col
leges, which seek popularity by max
ing life agreeable for students. give
far too much announcement 10 this
foolishnsss of fratern Ties and hazing
II is undeniabla that the naval acad.
envy reflects the spirit Of The whole
navy that physical contests among
young officers are useful training for
their lie work
The difference in the two cases Is
IN ths attitude Of The two set Of an,
thOrities toward the tragic results Of
excess We Indulgence in practices at
which they had winked. We believe
that the presid Mt and trustees Of
Kenyon college earned the contempt
.cf the whole American people by try
ing 10 suppress the facts in relation
to the death Of a student by violence
and Ia bafflc the inquiry of the law.
We believe on The other side. that
the respect and admiration Of the
whole country will be given to Secro-
tary Pmepartc for encouraging the
most thorough Investigation Of the
tragedy al Annapolis and ordering a
court martial OF the surviving puel-
list.

INTERNATIONAL GRAFT.

The spirit Of reform seems TO be
spreading 10 South America. The truth
about the relations between the as
phalt trust and the various govern
ments of Venezuela is coming out.
Some time ago the asphalt trust
confessed that il paid $50 600 70 the
Revolutionary leader, Matos Now II
/ alleges that Cactro demanded $780,
600 from it. but does not say how IL
paid Certainly the payment was not
satisfactory, because The government
of Castro is now suing the tBlst for
s11 900 900 for aiding the Matos reyo-
luton
The governments cf Venezuela, leg
innate or revolutionary, held mp the
asphalt rust for money exactly as the
councils of 81 Louis and other cities
held up corporations that sought the
privilege of doing business within
them. The penalty Of refusal 10 submit
to blackmall was annulment Of fran
chises, cenhcation Of property and
every manner of obstruction to carry
ing on Their legitimate business
The trusts ources of asphalt pro
duetion are in the region that was
occupied by Matos and could not be
operated without consent of his troops.
Meanwhile its commerce had to pass
through ports controlled by Castro
The trust was in a very tight place
between the two parties and it seems
