Rheumatism may be inherited and

Is a disease OF the blood.
Rheumatism is a painful inham'
nation of the muscles or of the Gov

accompanied by swelling. The pain
is sharp and shooting and does not
confine itself to any one part OF the
body, but after settling In one Joint

gerous tendency OF the disease is 10

DEFENSE OF INSANITY
IN TIE THAW CA,

wv s. Clark, Law Editor Cyclopeoi
n of Law and Proceedure)
From the opening address OF the
defendants counsel in the trial OF
Harry X. Thaw for the killing OF
Stanford White and the examination
of witnesses it appears that the only
rea1 defense will be insanity, and
that the form of insanity relied up
on will be insane delusion,-that is,
an insane delusion that White had
ruined the defendants wife, or an In
sane delusion that it was necessary
for the defendant to kill White in
self defense or in defense of his wife,
or an insane delusion that the homi-
eide was an act of Providence, and
the defendant the agent of Provi-
dence in committing it. There is also
some intimation that questions as to
irresistible impulse and emotional
insanity may arise. In view of this
outlining of the defense. ii will be
of interest to our readers to publish
the following statement of the law
procured from Mr.. William l..
Clark, the author of a number OF
works on criminal law, and review
ing editor of the Cyclopedia of Law
and Procedure, known as "CYC."
He says:
ITO say that a man Is guilty of no
crime in New York If he kills an
other while insane, although true as
a general proposition, II is too indefi-
. mite. II is necessary to go further
and ascertain what is meant by the
term insanity, for It admits of de-
grees and appears in various phases;
and 1t is necessary to go further still
and ascertain what is meant by the
term under the laws of New York,
for the law OF this state on insanity
as a defense differs from the law in
some OF the other states.
The Test of Insanity I'm New York.
"Under the penal code OF New
York (sections 20 and 21), as under
the law in all other states az Cyc
I 166; 81 Cyc 42) a man is not re-
sponsible for a homicide committed
while insane, II the insanity was such
that he did not know the nature and
quality OF his act or did not know
that II was wrong. On the other
hand, to exempt from responsibility

wise in Alabama, New Hampshire,
and some OF the other states ~ Cyc
169; 21 Cyc 665). the insanity must
be such as to have this effect. In
this state section 90 OF the penal
code declares that AN act done by a
person who Is an idiot, imbeclle, lun.
attic or insane. Is not a crime But
section 2t expressly provides that q
person is not excused from crimina'
liability as an idiot, imbecile, luna
tic, or insane person. except upon
proof that, at the time OF committing
the alleged criminal act, he was

arbitrary and dangerous powers that
the bill II enacted, will delegate 10
the state engineer.
The bin provides for an assistant
state engineer at a salary OF SloV"
per annum. also as many other as
sIstants as the state engineer may
desire. That provision is a rank
graft.
Sections 33 to AZ inclusive OF the
bni are not necessary until the courts
have adiudicated water and issued
DEGREES sufficient to furnish them
work. which can not occur inside the
next two TO four or perhaps six years.
All that Is necessary until that time
arrives is to empoyer the state engi-
neer, or his assistants, to measure
and apporition the water to the dill
ferent work, In conformity with the
decrees OF the courts. That will fur
nlsh an ample state administrative
water system.
Further appropriations for hydro
graphic or topographic surveys
should not be allowed. for the rea-
son that ten thousand dollars per an
mum Is now available for use in that
department. The United States al
ways has, and II is perfectly safe to
state, always will, meet all such con
tlngent appropriations by apportion-
ment. Ten thousand dollars annual
ly Is positively available for that
purpose and now we are asked for
another unnecessary appropriation to
add there to.
Section o of the empowers the
state engineer TO tax and collect
many useless tributes from the peo-
pie. but section "a exempts the recla.
nation service. Section 40 cinches
the people on misdemeanors which
includes violations OF the state en-
gIneer's whIms, but exempts the
reclamation service. That Is on the
principle that "the king can do no
wrong" Sections "a aud 40 OF the
bill and section 6 OF chapter 22S OF
the 1906 session laws providing for
United states recommendation TO ap-
point state engineer" plainly show
both the earmarks and brand OF the
bill. The same element after cinch-
ing the state OF Idaho with n similar
afiilction. tried the same thing In the
Washington and California leglsla-
tupres. but they we're very promptly
kicked out. They came to the Ore
gon legislature two years ago with
a like measure and. unfortunately
for Oregon, secured part OF II. They
come back here this session with a
more pernicioua measure than the
former one. also a most diaholical
emergency clause, Notwithstanding
that section of the act of congress
that created the reclamation service
contains the following:
Nothing In this act shall be con
strued as Affecting or intended 10
affcct the laws OF any state or terri-
tory; the secretary OF the interior In
carrying out the provisions OF this
act shall proceed IN conformity with
such laws"
