CONVICTION OF BURTON.

The prompt conviction of Senator Burton,
oil Kansas, on the charge Of having repre-.
sented the interests Of st. Louis get-rch-
quick scheme as it's paid attorney before the
Postofice Department furnishes added en-.
couragement for the hope that new stand
ard is being established 10 these matters In
our country. Up to a comparatively short
time ago, it looked as though the possibility
OF actually getting conviction--and espe-
cially OF getting it within a reasonable
time-in the case Of person having strong
political or social connections was consider
ed possibility 30 shadowy as hardly TO be
taken into account. or late years, we seem
to have got walked up to the enormity OF such
condition OF things and gradually 10 be
bringing about new spirit in regard to
them. Senators and Representatives, as we'll
as high officers in executive posts, are being
made to feel that they are as amenable to
the criminal law as are poor and lriendless
people. Burton himself has hitherto been
getting off on technicalities, and it is posi-
BILE that something OF that kind may yet
come between him and punishment; but
there is certainly less disposition -to- accept
triflIng ways OF dealing with high placed
violators of law than there was year or
two ago. We are very far. indeed. from the
position in which the English administra-
tion OF criminal law stands, with its absence
of appeals; but it is gratifying to think that
we are making some approach toward the
spirit that prevails there. 1t is curious that
this democratic country is so infinitely less
democratic than England in its practical
dealing with the question of equal rights to
all under the criminal law. Few things are
more important than the establishment OF
rigorous justice In thls matter. Baltic. News.

DR.. Charles Elliott, president OF Harvard
University, in letter TO Perry Belmont, OF
New York, says:
II will act as member Of the national
committee being formed to secure effective
legislation on the publicity OF election ex-

you on the subject, except that the English
Corrupt Practices Act and the Massachu-
sets law afford safe guidance for national
legislation in this country, inasmuch as these
two enactments have been proved effective
in practice"
This is only one of many letters that have
been received by Mr.. Belmont.
Governor Warheld, of Maryland, writes /:
