RESPONSIBLE TO THE CRIMINAL
LAW.

Warden Hayes has resigned to the
board Of managers OF the State Hos
pital for the Insane at Trenton. He
didn't want to so. and the board didn't
want him to go. but circumstances over
which they had no control dictated the
resignation. This latest development
in the hospital situation does not. of
course, terminate It.
There have been seventeen Deaths
from typhoid fever. a %preventable dis
ease, due to neglect of sanitation and
inspection, There has been criminal
neglect by the management. The water
supply was poisoned and remained in
that condition fog several months after
the disease appeared. the institution
dairy was hlthily kept. the receptacles
for milk were unclean. A patient was
fatally beaten by attendants, who were
permitted to escape. while the tragedy
was hushed up. There is reason to be-
lieve that other patients were similarly
treated. The bodies of the dead were
sent to their relatives in a disgusting
condition. The supplies for the hos
pital were purchased in ways and at
prices that reflect seriously upon the
integrity of the warden and compro-
mise one of the managers.
The Mercer County prosecutor cannot
remain Indifferent to the revelations in
Ahe hospital management. The next
Mercer County grand jury cannot fail
to take up the evidence before the
Hahn committee, with a view to GRIM
inal indictments. 1t would be a lasting
reproach upon justice as administered
in Mercer County If the men RESPONSE
BILE for the shocking conditions in the
hospital and who are responsible for
the deaths of seventeen persons from
typhoid. and who were cognizant of the
cause of death of Enoch Silvers. are
not brought TO the bar for punishment
by the criminal law.

remembered that when Russia and
Japan were quarrelIng and before a

Japan suddenly pounced on Port

for Japan to do would be to make a

1t would be Japan's object to seize

A strong cruiser fleet on our coast

David Carman, of Port Monmouth.
who spent twenty years in the State
Hospital for the Insane and who now
possesses an u%nclouded mind gives to a
reporter some of the results of his OBJ
servations in the hospital. Mr.. Carman
says: II believe that there are all kinds
of abominable petty graft and thieving
there, While I probably could not
prove it, have good reason to believe
that the underlings have sold the sup
plies intended for the tables of the in
mates and furnished inferior food in
the place of the goods paid for by the
State"
In such matters 1t is hard to secure
the proofs. But with the kind of man.
agement that has prevailed in the hos
pital and the extraordinary looseness
of the system of purchasing and ham
ding supplies. it is reasonable to be-
lieve that "underlings" did not lose any
opportunity for graft. AS Mr.. Carman
well says there is necessity for a COM
plete clearing out of the management.

THE RAILROAD LAWYER IN EvI-
DENCE.

Much of the trouble for the railroad
corporations in this country in their
relations with the government is due
to the railroad lawyer. The railroad
manager is not an adept in law and is
not by nature a disloyal person or a
lawbreaker. Railroad directors are of
the average run of men WEI see on the
streets. But the retained attorney acts
for his corporation with the same zeal
that the criminal lawyer acts for the
criminal. He prompts the acts which
bring the corporation in conflict with
the law. The railroad lawyer has Gre
ated all the serious clashes in this State
between the railroads and the public.
In Virginia, North Carolina and Ala
bama his advice and craft created the
recent conditions so p~erilous to gov
eminent as well as railroad interests.
1t was he who advised contempt of
State courts and State authority. as IL
the railroad company in a State was
superior to and exempt from all State
control and to any obedience to the
law.

LAWS AND PUBLIC IMPORTATION.

Public information about the enact
ment Of new laws and other public
business is lily provided for in this
State. The seasonal laws are sent out
serially in pamphlet form n a NUNS
Der of bound copies are issued, but they
go into few hands and they are caviar
to the general" 1t has been proposed
that a condensation of the new laws
be made and published every year.
That would be good policy if the work
was properly done, and not be made a
mere printers job as is the case with
many of the State reports.
In Massachusetts the pamphlet laws
of the legislative session this year have
already been issued, and there is in
preparation an annual blue book of
1850 pages to contain the acts and reso-
lutions by the Legislature, the changes
in the public statutes. the messages of
the Governor, etc. This is an improve
volume which merely contains the laws
as passed and which is always badly
indexed. But a synopsis Of the ses-
sional laws, printed in the newspapers,
would be of general value. Blue books
n bound copies of the laws go to the
few and do not disseminate necessary
information about the laws and
changes therein.

Several years ago the office of state

cause the commissioner neglected his
duties and because the department
was, in consequence. of no practical
value. The department was turnAd over
to the State Board oflHealth and the
same man was appointed to be Its
head. Mix inspection in the state has
always been a farce. n it is not
much better now than 1t was when
there was an independent state dairy
commissioner. The Hahn committee
has paid some attention to The State
Board OF Health, and 1t should pay
special attention to milk inspection.

OPPORTUNITY FOR v1ND1cAr1oN.

County Supervisor H. Otto Wittpenn,
of Hudson County, now has an op-
portunity for v~indication from the al
legations of his aforetime admirer, the
Observer of Hudson, and without any
expense to him. 1t is presented in the
contemplated investigation of Hudson
County affairs by a special committee
of the Senate. Not long ago the county
supervisor was attacked by the OBJ
server in a series of articles that re-
fected on his honesty as a public off,
GER. The injured official brought suit
for a small amount of damages>simply
as a means of vf~ndication, but the is
sue was too broad for an inferior court,
and so the suit was discontinued, and
an action for a large amount is to be
instituted in a higher court.
But Supervisor Wittpenn doesn't care
for damages. He is after vindication.
and what better means than a legis-
lative investigation to go right into the
matters charged and show them
up in their true light? The appearance
of the committee in Hudson will be
suspicious, too, as to time. The county
supervisor is candidate for the Demo-
cratic nomination for Mayor Of Jersey
City, and will probably be the candi-
date. Election day is only thrse months
off. What better could happen for him
than that a Senate investigation and
a brand new certificate Of character to
take before the Jersey City voters?
