In one day last week 11,200 Eu-
ropeans arrived in this port from
the steerages Of four ships. This
did not break the record, for more
than 10000 landed one day last
spring, but at no time before in
the history of this country have
the number Of regular arrivals
equaled the present influx.
Robert Watchorn, commissioner
of immigration, said that more than
100000 immigrants would arrive
at Ellis island before the close of
the fiscal year if the rush contin-
ued.
Last year 1,O27,O0 immigrants
passed through all of the various
ports Of entry into this country.
There is also an unparalleled ex-

foreigners who have accumulated
small fortunes in this country and
are returning to their homes to

In the treatment of the criminal
after conviction the time is ripe
when the judiciary should be sup
planted by the scientific expert or
the physician.
Chas. Dudley Warner said: "a
criminal is one who violates a stat
ute law or, as we say, commits a
crime. The human law takes cog
nizance of crime and not of sin.
But all men who commit crime are
not necessarily in the criminal
class"
A laborer who mixes mortar upon
asphalt pavements in the city of
New York, without putting boards
under the mortar, violates the law.
Instead of providing some method
of stopping that in a rational way,
the law says that the man who
does that should be fired or i'm
prisoned until he pays the fine. If
the man cannot pay his fine he is
sent to the same prison and sub
ject to the same indignities as the
drunkard or libertine
The law requires of the criminal
judge an utter impossibility. 1t is
absurd to say that the jurist, no
matter how eminent he be, can say
that at the end of tho period of
calendar months which be fixes on
sentence day the criminal will be
or will not be fit again to be at
large.
Criminality is broadcast; it ex-
tends in every walk of life and in
all nations and creeds. The thief
is found among the heather, and
among the religious, among the
poverty stricken and among the
wealthiest. The degenerate is found
among the morally stunted and
physically deformed, and among

We are today applying reform
methods to some socalled first Of
tenders who never can be reformed
under the present methods, and are
refusing reforms to some unfortu-

times because reform was never

this lies In the fact that we have
failed to grasp that which lies at
the bottom of the whole problem,
