Nnu the Eisheries Trust.

The fisheries trust is the latest
octopus to fasten its tentacles on d
patient and long-suffering people. and
OF course il is protected by the tariff,
the average rate OF duty on fish being
17.sS per cent To sweeten the bitter
cup to the lips of the consumers the
combine declares that the fishermen
are to get steadier and better prices
and the consumers are TO gain from
those economies" in production and
distribution which have fiattered our
hopes with every trust prospectus. but
withered into higher prices when the
combination was perfected. 1t will b'
so with the fish trust. and the poor
fisherman will find no competitors &c
purchase. so his share of the spoil'
OF the sea will diminish.

And is there proporuonate in

"Unquesuonably The fact Of the

that. New York is the clearing house
for crime in America. Il not only is
the starting ont place, but il is the

much larger criminal population than

tical citizen asks: What is the rem

United States, and especially in New
York city. shows the necessity OF
some remedy. Inspector Mclaughlin
admits that the criminals are almost
beyond control in that city. and he
believes that the law is to blame for
this condition OF affairs. The laws
are numerous enough. for there are in
the United States S24 anti-social acts

Pathology OF Crime.

But. nevertheless, there is a path

thief or the psychology OF the muir

but il is also a scientific study And
coupled with the psychological is the
physical side OF the problem. If you

just because he is thief-that's all"
But back OF the surface indications

cause and a possible cure for crime
The cure does not, perhaps. lie in any

ton to take them. That is the case
with the majority OF criminals Now
and then you may find an old Grim
inal who wants 10 reform But those
cases are excee dinghy rare.
This feeling is shared by about all
the men who are engaged in the oecu-
patton OF running down criminals and
endeavoring to prevent the perpetra-
ton OF crime Robert Pinkerton once
expressed practically the same views
20 me. and only the other day Samuel
J. Barrows. corresponding secretary
OF the Prison Association Of New lork,
told a story where ne was made the
victim OF q pretended reformed Grim
inal The man had come 70 him with
tale OF reform: small loan was
made 70 him and repaid, followed by
confidence resulting In the advance OF
quite a sum Of money for goods to set
him up in business Since that ad-
vance no word has been heard from
the so-called reformed criminal. The
incident however. did not AFFECT Mr..
Barrows faith. for he still believes
there is good in many criminals and
that assistance should be given 10
them TO reform. But with the profess
sional thief catcher il is a different
matter They are daily brought in
contact with such a low order Of hu-
mainly and daily see the lowest side
OF degraded humanity. so that they
naturally become incredulous when
reform and crime are linked together

The magistrates claim that they can

II r. not difficult 20 trace the causes
OF crime They may be expressed in
a few general words. Pauperism. en-
vironment. physical disease. insanity,
with all It sociologic relations; politi-
cal corruption. anarchy and false eco

Of crimes one needs but TO take a
glance almost any morning at the
faces in the lineup" Of criminals at
New York police headquarters. There
you will see the young criminal just
starting out on his career of crime.
and there YOU will see the ole and

worst stages In the faces OF nearly
all the habitual criminals the pur-

faces of the younger offenders the
reader is often stopped with a query.
