How Law May Be Enforced.

Now, how are we to meet this
crisis? Shall we hesitate to punish
because our criminals wear broad.
cloth, instead of the fustian, or the
rags in which some were once clad? It
lies entirely in my province to in
truct, or advise individual executive
officers or public prosecutors, but
there is no easy, royal road in the
punishment of criminals, any more
than in anything else. The way to
convict is to convict. There are to-
day within the State of New York a
few men, who, involved in insurance
frauds, have themselves furnished ev-
idence, fairly correlated on the wit.

lieve it would be possible, in that me-
tropolitan city, to draw a grand jury
which would not indict for at least
two and perhaps three, of the most
serious crimes known to the law.
Still further, it would not be possible,
by any change of venue, for any one
of the men so indicted, if fairly proved
guilty to escape conviction before a
trial jury in any one of the other six.

York.

CRIMES AGAINST CIVILIZATION
SHOULD BE PUNISHED, SAYS
JUDGE ALTON B. PARKER
IN SPEECH TO THE MIS-
SlSsISSIPPI LEGIS-
LATURE.

JACKSON, Miss, March 15.-Judge
Alton B. Parker, of New York, deliv-
cred an address before a joint SEES
sion of the Mississippi Legislature at
the Century Theater Tuesday. Judge
Parker reached the city last night
from the gulf coast, where his family
is spending the winter. During the
early forenoon he was an interested
spectator at the legislative proceed
ings and later both sides adjourned to
the Century Theater. The former
Democratic nominee was introduced
by Chief Justice Whitfield of the Su-
preme Court.
Judge Parker spoke in part as fol-
lows:
During the past year the country
has been listening, with open, eager
ear, to revelations of the most as
founding character. In this time we
have become familiar with breaches
of trust involving the rifling of graves
and the robbery of widows and or
phans with combinations in which
now, one group of financiers, now an
other, has played its part; and with
pretentious business enterprises
whose securities were writ in water"
The ordinary moral obliquities, so
common to mankind, have almost been
lost sight of, while, day after day and
week after week, this disheartening
and unseeming story has been told
until, at each new recital, the public
has been reduced to ask: What
next?"
But why should there have been any
cause for wonder? When, for nearly
half a century, we have been binding
our manufacturers as apprentices to
why should we be surprised
that a few of our financiers or a bare
handful of our merchants and lawyers,
not only learned the trade but bet
,ered the instructions Of their teach
ar? Having ourselves created the
forces which thus threaten to break
Up the fountains of the great deep of
morals, why should we grumble, or
tune, or repine? Shrinking back at
he sight of our own tedious monster,
Why should we take counsel of de-
spair?

Necessity for Action.

While, however, we are only reapine
up and doing. The effect upon the
world of these revelations must be as
deep and profound as our own trial
has been serious, our shame open,
bare-faced, impossible to be hid. For
a time the ideals of our three cen
turtles of life have been shattered and
our people feel that they have come
far short of their early promise. But
why should the knowledge that a few
thieves in high places have been I'M
covered dishearten us? Suppose
their operations had gone on for an
other decade, should we have been
better or happier to have realized, at
it's end, that we had been living all
these years over an overwhelming,
ever-deepening sewer, or ever-increas-
ing foulness?
All these are bad-certainly moth
ing worse has leaped to light in any
country within a century; but it is
not too late to retrace our steps, to
assert anew, and with adled effect
iveness, the strong POINTS of our ma
tional character and to appeal to the
inherent good, the almost unerring
impulse to do right There are, per-
haps, fewer thieves now, in proper
ton to population, than those who
Dreyed upon our society fifty years
ago, and, though more dangerous, be-
cause found in high places, we must
confess that, on the other hand, it is
EASIER than before to md, expose and
punish them.
