We fully comprehend the Joy with
which this happy event was hailed at
Johnson headquarters. In the midst of
summertime athletics. what better propo-
sition than that of an athletic hero-the
hero OF the high dive and the backward
somersault-for President of a strenuous
and athletic people? Mr.. Brvsn made
the mistake OF his life when he allowed
himself to get fat. Mr.. Taft labors In
vaiI afoot and on horseback to reduce
superfiuous weight. Both are heavily
handicapped by the lissome Swede. He
has the swimming pool TO himself. The
sprlngboard is all his own. A Democrat
whose stock in trade has not yet been
appropriated by the enemy.

Keep the Case Closed.

Let US hope that the judgment OF the
court that Harry K. Thaw is still insane
and unfit 70 be at large will close for
long time 10 come the whole nauseous
mess Of Thaws and NesbIts and the rest
of them
The Thaw case attracted wide attention
for two reasons; one because Of the Pc
culiar circumstances leading up to the
murder and the other because the MUIR
derer was a Pittsburg millionaire sup
posed to have command Of unlimited
cash. Had the murderer Of Stanford
White been poor man. It is doubtful.
indeed, whether the question Of his
sanity when he committed deliberate
murder would ever have been interjected
into the case. But Thaw was able 20
adduce this plea; was able to substan-
tate It to the satisfaction Of a court OF
law. and was very properly committed
10 the insane asylum where he belonged.
The logic Of the case is nowhere bet
ter summed up than in the ruling OF the
judge before whom application was made
for Thaw's release. He said:
'Thaw. at the time Of his trial for homicide. as
defense pleaded insanity. and presented proof
70 show his insanity at the time Of the killing q
White. and. by the proof offered on his behalf. the
jury was convinced that he was insane and acquit-
ted him upon that ground.
Il an satisfied from the evidence adduced before
me that the mental condition Of Harry X. Thaw
has no; changed. and fnd that he is now insane.
and that it is manifest as TO make Il unsafe for
him to bO at large"
Such sound judgment will have
salutary effect on those who may imagine
that because Of fortunes which permit
the engagement of expert alienists, the
courts Of the land may be mocked. The
court which commits Thaw back 10 the
asylum does not dispute the finding that
Thaw was insane when he murdered
whitehall much has been passed upon;
but it does declare that there Is no evi-
dence that his mental condition is
changed. and that If he was insane then,
it is unsafe for him TO be at large now.
Thaw has been treated mercifully, and.
we hope justly. There has been no vim
dictiveness in his prosecution; only an
effort to arrive at the truth. That truth
seems TO be that he is an insane man.
and that in spite OF the money back of
him, he must be restrained Of his liberty
for the benefit of society.
Too long have the affairs Of the Thaws
been allowed to occupy the public mind.
