There seems to be tendency to surren.

mails, asserting that the deer have come
TO be 80 numerous as to constitute a
real menace to the farming industry OF
the state, since the deer are raid to be
notorious raiders Of the crops.
As matter OF fact, we hear very
infrequently OF the depredations of the

as to cause wonder at the boldness Of
the animals, and more wonder Tat some
people should advocate wholesale kill

period Of open season is long enough to

sUPrREssrNG A NEWSPAPER.

y What is called Paterson's Anarch-
istic Journal has been forbidden the
privilege of the mails by the Postrhas-
ter General under the general powers
giyenxhim to forbid the circulation Of
obscene or dangerous literature This
is q power which is not infrequently
used and there are many instances
where there can be no doubt Of the
justice and propriety of what might
be look ed on as an arbitrary assump-
tion Of authority. From what VT
have heard of the publication in aues-
ton II is one of the yilest advocates
OF extreme and active anarchy in the
country. and we have no doubt that It
should be put out Of business entirely
But" as The New Bedford Standard
argues. "the authority which the Post
msater General has to do this sort Of
thing is an authority which 10 filled
with peril and which ought not to be
exercised except on the greatest pro-
vocation and where the offense is so
well esta blished that there can be no
chance for a doubt. The right OF free
thought and free speech, like all other
great rights. brings with 1t dangers,
which we must recognize and be pre-
pared for. Among these dangers are
the chances-the certainties rather
that some men will use the right to
the harm of their fellows. If we could
determine absolutely where the divid-
ing line between the right use and the
wrong use of free speech is in every
case, the problem would be easy. The
truth is that we cannot. So many mis-
takes have been made in the attempt
to determine, and so much injustice has
been done by well-meaning men who
have supposed that they were only de-
Tending the right that there is need
OF the utmost eautiousness in dealing
with publications which arouse dissent.
There are some very good persons who
would not only suppress such publica-
lions as the Paterson Anarchistic Jour
nal. but also all that advocate doc
trines which seem to them subversive
OF what they believe to be the divinely
established order of society. Such
persons should remember that a Judge
OF a Massachusetts, court once charged
= .-raua furry that discussions oF the
slavery question came under that OBJ
section and expressed the opinion that
they should be dealt with without len
ieney."

GETTING AFTER US.

In another place on this page we
copy sarcasticalIy sood-humored edi-
terial from The Richmond Times Dis
patch which is intended to be q jolt
for The Advertiser. From some cause we
failed to see the copy OF The Larsmark
to which our Richmond contemporary
refers. bence. we do not know what It
said about this paper. We have no
doubt that 1t paved the earth and dis
located the atmosphere in its usual
style of bumptious superiority. and
hope IT enjoyed the stunt to the utter
most
The trouble all grows out Of one
of those simple questions we some
times ask. our object In most cases
being to set some overloaded coptem-
porsries bv the ears. We asked whence
came the expression, Mad as a March
hare" and innoeentiy suggested that

Heading that explanation reminded US
that we had seen something of the
same kind before. but had failed TO
remember IT at the time. Haywood
and cervantes both used the compar-
ison--"Mad as q March hare" three
centuries or more ago. We are also
aware that some book of answers to
questions of this kind says: "Hares In
March are very wild" And so. in ,ie-
fault of the illumination we might
have received from The Landmark we
suppose We must let 1t go at that.

A Regrettable Incident.


TIE shooting Of negro by Represen-
tative Helm. following an alteration
in street car, is an unfortunate and
regrettable incident from every stand
point. The probable recovery of the
wounded man saves Mr.. Hehin from a
most embarrassing situation. for which
all his friends will be thankful All OF
them are sorry that he went so far as
he did in his attempt to take the law
into his own hands. Such a course is
always dangerous. and usually wrong
The Albanian may have thought his
own life in danger, and therefore he
may have felt compelled to shoot. But
ii would have been easy to avoid all the
trouble without any sacrifice of chiv-
airy or self-respect.
If the conduct OF passengers on a
street car Is offensive. it is the duty
Of the conductor to call them to ac-
count. The services of the conduc-
tor are always available. There is no
occasion for personal intervention of a
passenger to save women passengers
from rudeness. bevond calling the Mt.
