NO CRIMINAL GLASS.

There is no such thing as a crinn-
ina1 class. Any statement and refer
ence to the so-called criminal class
makes the prosperous feel entirely too
comfortable, sitting at the club with
their after dinner cigars. It removes
the feeling Of responsibility from that
section Of society where it properly
belongs and places it on heredity and
circumstances over which we have no
control.
In a large proportion of cases the
criminal is society, and not the poor
fellow who has gone wrong, from lack
Of work, poverty and the corollaries OF
poverty, strangeness to the customs
and language Of the country. or tho
