THE ATTACK ON GAYNoR.

The attempted assassination of Mayor Gaynor
has aroused such universal horror to show the
strength of public sentiment against such crimes
No doubt there many crimes committed just
as atrocous in other walks of life, but the attack
upon the mayor of Americas metropolis is stab
at our free institutions and crime against
democratic ideals. Aside from the fact that
great and good man was attacked, he the
chosen representative of several million people,
official elected to serve the public The attack
therefore takes on a more serious aspect than
mere personal encounter. The crime against Gay
nor the man was most atrocious; what can be said
of the attack on Gaynor the mayor?
In the history of the early times, it not
an unusual occurrence for king to be found dead
with arrow piercing his heart. In the first cen
tury the number of rulers who died from natural
causes is small indeed From the time of Augustus
down to the fall of the western empire large pro-
portion of rulers were assassniated Probably these
crimes did not meet with as much condemnation
as they should, but in those times the rulers were
not held in the same respect as the elected rep
resentatives of republic of today. But it seems
certain that the number of attacks public men
is growing less as the years roll by. Certainly
they are of less frequent occurrence than they
in the days of the Roman empire. 1t is also GER
tain that the effect the public mind is more
pronounced than ever before.
The hope is universally expressed that the mayor
may recover speedily to his accustomed health If
good wishes furnish balm for his wounds, the
nationwide sympathy yes, the worldwide sympa-
thy, and expression of best wishes for a quick re-
covery will do much to bring the mayor to his feet
again His courage his independence, his wis
dom, and his faithful administration of the laws
have distinguished him from the politician using
the word in its cheapest sense, and have placed
him among the nations great executives. 1t is to
be sincerely hoped that the mayor may be given
many years of life for the good of the city
which he has served so we'll

they could go back and reform U.S. There in
our penitentiaries and iails this morning and
boys who, though guilty of gross crime according
to law, may yet be irresponsible before God. That
is, they inherited a weak will as some children in
hert weak constitution But the singular fea-
ture, weakness, of criminal code is that the
law is measured in the same proportion to these
unfortunates as to the wilful and mentally strong
criminal who enters upon a career of crime of his
own volition. How to deal with this problem and
to measure the degrees of responsibility or ire
sponsibility from the absolute of idiocy to
the point of high intellectually constitutes the
difficulty.
If the records of the examinations of school
children were kept by the teachers, and compared,
they might help, particularly if to these records
were added something of the character of the
parents, the physical, moral and mental condition
of the child from year to year. and the opinion of
the teacher examiner to the tendencies Of the
child toward upward downward career.
When the boy or girl left school, these records
might assist the civil legal criminal authorities
to deal with the young woman in just and
Christian-like manner. Repeated offenses on the
part of the boy would indicate the tendencies of
the youth toward a career of crime and would war
rant the authorities in segregatng him from
ciety and placing him in a home where comforts
would be provided and where he would be sur
rounded by influences to counteract his vicious ten
denotes.
Examples are not wanting to prove that pau
perism and criminal instincts are transmitted from
generation to generation. Only then, by segrega-
ton, by fair treatment and instruction may this
dangerous and increasing element be controlled and
Il strong nation of wholesome men and women be
built up
The absurd saying that all men are born equal,
and the foolish boast of our school books and mag
azines that any boy might hope day to be-
come President of the United States, are insult
to our intelligence and our American citizenship
Every school teacher knows that among those
under his care there are found the weak-minded
and the physically imperfect These can never be-

A BUREAU OF IDEAS.

According to newspaper story, bureau for
the purchase sale and exchange of ideas is to be
put in operation at Washington in the near future.
This is grand idea in itself. All over the coun-
try are people afflicted with an idea which they
believe will be of the greatest benefit to themselves
and the world if only it could be worked out. To
persuade these possessors of ideas that they are
impractical is an impossible task. Old Jerry Ora
ham, back in Ohio, had an idea that he could go
to the north pole by simply building great long
box house, like a snowshed, extending from some
point above the arctic circle to and the pole
He died with his idea firmly fixed in his mind. If
the bureau in Washington had been in operation
he might have got an expert opinion as to the
value of his idea, or he might have traded it for
another though he, like the possessors of other
IDEAS was so completely obsessed with that one
idea that it probably would have been impossible
for him to entertain another.
The fundamental belief back of this bureau is
that there are millions of ideas floating around in
the world simply waiting exploitation. The be-
lief is widespread: Especially in literature and
the drama, there are thousands of budding
geniuses who meet with encouragement and dis
appointment at the return of their manuscripts
from heartless publishers and theatrical managers.
For the accommodation of these, publishing houses
have been started and theatres established for
giving publicity to the products of original gen
fuses. But the results have been disappointing in
every instance, for the founts of original genius
that these were intended to give forth only muddy
and impractical things.
We would not offer any discouragement to
the hopeful persons who to establish this bureau
of IDEAS for it is our intention to reflect on the
intelligence of the great American people, which
everybody believes is pretty high, but it is our
belief that good, workable ideas generally come
forth from their hiding places in due time and.
that they cannot be persuaded to come forth be-
fore their time
An advertisement of eastern concern asks
people to send for their booklet 'What to In
vent" If anybody wants to exercise his ingenuity,
he should send for that booklet and discover what
is wanted in the commercial world and thus try
to supply it. There not many people hiding
their light under bushel nowadays. There is
only that pauctiy of ideas which has kept the
world from advancing any faster than it does.
What is needed more than an institution for the
exchange of ideas is an institution to supply
ideas. Vast ages have slipped into eternity since
the development of our modern automobile was
begun. The principle of the wheel, discovered
so many years ago, that mans mind to
the contrary, was the beginning of all of our
modern transportation machinery It took ages
to develop that idea, and who can say that we
have any more than begun its development? We
fear the new bureau will have short life and

THE POET AND THE FAIRY WOMAN.

Here is Alice L. Miligan's translation from the
Irish of Art M'Cooey's poem, "KiIcreggan." 1t
appears in its English dress-the first time IN
America-in The Intermountain Catholic this
morning, and deserves careful reading. The Irish
words and the exquisite air of this melody were
mailed to the Irish Folk Song Journal by Father
Quinn of Cooley, in Louth, and the translation
sent to us by Rev. Robert Ker, A. NJ, rector of st.
George
The music carries an indescribably weird and
fascinating tone. The words and the air seem to
express the idea that the poets delight in beauty
can, as if by Inspiration, lift him above the
Affections of life and the humiliations of lowly
estate
Goldsmith's address to his muse in the DE,
serted Village" would suggest that he had heard
this poem or one like it in some peasants cabin
in Longford The Celtic poems of Art Mccoy
and other bards of the North of Ireland edited by
Henry Morris will be published and put on the
market early in November.

CARDINAL GIBBONS ON STRIKES.

The practical good sense of Cardinal Gibbons
was never more in evidence than in his late contri
button to the literature of STRIKES and more espe
cially when he sensibly writes:
AS to strikes, I think they are at best a ques-
tionable remedy for labor troubles. They paralyze
industry, foment passion and lead to the destruc-
ton of property. They keep the men in enforced
idleness, during which their minds are clouded

with discomfort and often cause great suffering
to the workman's family. don't approve of the
boycott ! regard it as unwarrantable invasion
of the commercial privileges guaranteed by the
government to every business firm. The right of
a non-union laborer to make his own contract
freely and perform it without hindrance is essen
tial to civil liberty that it must be defended by the
whole power of the government. Arbitration is
the only fair means by which capital or labor will
ever get It's due. Arbitration is a synonym for
civilization

THE POET AND THE FAIRY WOMAN.

HE POET AND The FAIRY WOMAN.
THE POET:
Last night lay dreaming on Kilcreggans Church
yard clay:
A maiden came beaming at dawning of the day:
Her brow, like the Swans breast, through her
curls' sheen of gold
And it was pure pleasure that young queen to be-
hold.
THE FAIRY WOMAN
Oh, rise from your weeping and follow me affair;
In the fair halls of Moonland no English BodachS
are.
Your grief will vanish quite there unvexed by ty-
rant rule
You'll have hours of delight there your heart of
music full
THE POET:
Oh, princess, like Helen, the ruin of high Troy,
Or the nine maids divine ON Parnassus giving JOY
Who would have my love whisper while following
thee affair?
THE FAIRY WOMAN:
On the far side of the Boyne l have my dwelling
place.
For nigh to Grainne Og was reared of fairy race.
Where sons of song assemble, making music, l
am known
At eve up in Tara, at in Tyrone
THE POET:
l would not deny thee for kings wealth of gold,
But to flee from my plighted love too base [ would
hold
From the wife wooed with promise of joy in her
youth
In woe she would wander should 1 falter in truth.
THE FAIRY WOMAN:
(Reminding him that his kindred mock his poetry:
Oh you have no true love, no truth and no kin,
Without land or labour-sad the plight that you
in.
Your fate were far better in loves bonds with me
Than with those that of your music make but
mockery.
THE POET:
Remembering how of old poets had high honour
Oh my grief and lamentations for the lords of
Tyrone,
For the high heir of Feadbh, beneath the burial
stone;
For the noble clans of Mai, who on Christs festal
night =.
Gave gifts after feasttime to poets their right.
THE FAIRY WOMAN:
At Aughrim and Boyne River those great mobiles
fell
The Milesians, who ever lowered sons of learning
well.
In fairy fort better is sport to abide
Than where rude sons of William your songs will
deride.
THE POET:
(Yieding to her request yet desiring that his dust
shall rest in consecrated soil in place very dear
to him):
Oh, partner and princess, one plea alone 1 pray
Promise, them and pledge ere [ follow thee today:
If by Shannon, Isle of Manaan or Egypt far away
L should die-let me lie in Kilcreggan's holy clay
