E CHINO ARSON N MURDsR IN RMr

Prosecutor Emley Of Passaic is doubtful whether the State law is broad
enough to cover the case OF az anarchist Italian newspaper in Paterson that
invites its readers to burn and kill and destroy. 1t is curious. indeed. if any
body in this state can legally say in a newspaper what it would be a crime
to utter on a public platform. 1t is singular also that the government which is
so particular to exclude from the mails all publications that announce lottery
drawings or prizes in games of chance should permit the Paterson anarchist
paper to be circulated through the mails The government has no right to in
terfere with a political propaganda and cannot exclude a paper from the mails
pecaus it breaches certamp political doctrines but anarchy is not politics, and
the advice to burn and kill is not doctrine, but crime.

CHICAGO Oct. 20.-The wheat market was
unsettled, showing sudden spurts of strength
and then veering around TO Weakness with
the general tone in favor of the bears. Rapid
accumulation of stocks of wheat throughout
the world and a comparatively slack export
demand, together with the wet weather in this
country was the chief factor in creating the
bearish sentiment. According to a report com
piled by Bradstreets the worlds visible stock
of wheat increased 100000 bushels for the
week. compared with S40o.o00 bushels increase
last week and an increase of 400, 900 bushels
the corresponding time last year. There was
export demand in evidence but the
amount OF actual business closed was small,
the total reported being forty boatloads, which
included a few loads of low grade wheat from
Winnipeg The demand for cash wheat in the
northwest less urgent. the mills taking
only the best of offerings. Rain was reported
being quite general west OK the Missouri
river and this storm was said to be extending
