.eTHE BEST rARIF,F LAW, ;,

Were many of the Republican con-
gressional insurgents consistent they
would be climbing on the housetops
and criticising Colonel Roosevelt for
his stand on the tariff law quite as
severely as they have condemned the
position taken by President Taft on
this same law. When Mr.. Taft deliv-
cred his first defense of the Payne law
in his Winona speech and called it the
'best tariff law that had been placed
on the statute books, many of the Re-
publican insurgents worked themselves
up into a fine frenzy with their criti-
cisms.
Not only did they insist that the new
tariff law was a betrayal of the tariff
pledge in the Republican national
platform. They insisted that because
there had been increases in some of
the schedu1es-and these increases
chiefly concerned articles that are adj
mitted to be among the luxuries of
life-it was a much worse effort at
tariff revision than was the Dingley
law which it superseded.
During the past few weeks Colonel
Roosevelt has delivered several speech
es in which he has discussed the tariff
question and the new tariff law. One
of these speeches was delivered by Mr..

NO HERO FUND FOR THEM.

Mr.. Andrew Carnegie's hero fund has
erected good in helping poor and
worthy boys and young men who had
done sor7 heroic act, to make head
way in the world, Notwithstanding the
disadvantages of poverty, writes Henry
Mann in the November Columbian.
However, there are other kinds of
heroism besides pulling a drowning
person out of the water, OF rescuing
the helpless inmates of a house on fire.
The mother who tolls night and day
to support a crippled husband and de-
pendent children is a good deal of a
heroine. The parent going without
food so that the little ones may have
something to eat; the brave sister or
big brother working all hours to keep
the family together when father and
mother have gone to their final rest
all these are heroes or heroines; and
there are many such in our great cities.
Their names don't get in the news
papers, or glare at readers in six-fnch
headlines; and their sacrifices may be
known only to God, to themselves, and
to those whom they benefit; but the
blood Of heroes is in their veins; they
are of the same stuff as the soldier
who leads a forlorn hope, who thrusts
himself on the bayonets of the foe, that
his comrades may rush forward to
victory.
General Grant was never more a
hero in the stress and storm of battle
than he was in those dark latter days,
when knowing that the seal of death
was on his brow, he struggled to COM
plete his memoirs so that his family
might not suffer, and that his debts
should be paid.
All honor to the heroes of fire and
flood and war, but don't forget that
there are thousands just as heroic, for
whom there are no Carnegie medals,
no popular applause. no reward or
recognition save the sweet pleasure OF
doing good, the consciousness of duty
performed

SURE AND SWIFT JUTsrICE.

If some method of court procedure
and the administration Of justice. such
as prevails in England, could be estab-
lished in the courts of the United
States, a great boon would be con-
ferred on society There would soon be
much more respect for the majesty of
the law, and the waves of crime which
are spreading over the land would be-
gin to subside.
The sure and swift fashion with
which justice moves in Great Britain
has been illustrated again in the hand
ling of the cases against DR.. Crippen
and Miss Leneve. DR.. Crippens crime
will take it's place as one of the fiend-
ish murders of all time. It's execution
was as crafty as it was cruel. 1t was
no easy task to furnish evidence that
would place the crime at his door, es-
peciaIly in the matter of proving the
corpus deficit, that the fragments of the
flesh found in the cellar of his home
were parts Of the body of the woman
he killed. Here was an opportunity for
a stubborn defense and DIR. Crippen
through his friends, was able to obtain
the services of the best legal talent.
Yet it only took few days to try this
case in court, even with expert wit
nesses on both sides. The jury did its
work in 30 minutes There is a sugges-
ton from no one but DR.. Crippen
had a fair trial or that the verdict
against him is not a just one. His SEN
tence to death was fixed to be execu-
ted less than three weeks from the time
of his conviction. And in the
case of Miss Leneve-her trial as
an accessory after the fact and her &C
quittal was brought about within few
hours. Nor is there a suggestion that
there was miscarriage of justice in
this case.
1t is almost unnecessary to state
what the procedure would have been
in any part of this country had the
Crippen and Leneve trials been held
here. It would have taken two or three
weeks to get jury in the Crippen case.
The trial would have dragged along for
a month or six weeks longer. A con-
viction would have been followed by
appeals that would have postponed the
execution of Crippen's sentence indef1n-
itely. Maybe the higher courts would
have found a few technicalities of suf-
ficient weight to send the case back to
might disagree or bring in a verdict
of not guilty and then justice would
be thwarted. There would have been
the same tedious sort of trial in the
Leneve case, and perhaps an injustice
might have been done the girl through
the zealousness of prosecuting attor-
neys to secure a conviction and there
by enhance their reputation for being
clever gentlemen.
And it is trials of this sort in this
country, where facts are generally
subordinated to technicalities, that en-
courage the criminal element or those
who may be tempted to crime to ply
their nefarious trade. They have con-
fidence that smart lawyers can get them
out Of their difficulties by putting tech
meal distractions in the path of JUS
tice, as they too frequently and sue
cessfu1ly do.

PERSISTENT CHINESE.

That Chinese laborers, with an over
weening desire to gain adnittance into
the United States or Canada, are not
Gismayed by so small a thing as the
lack of cordial welcome is evident
from the persistency with which they
worm their way into the two coun-
tries. Sometimes they succeed in. their
undertaking, but very frequently they
are caught and deported-a process, by
the way, which is attended by no little
expense. The four. for instance, who
were taken from boxcar at Holyoke,
Mass, on September IS, have been
started back to China by way Of San
Francisco, and it is estimated that
their deportation will cost the govern

Every time Robert e. Barnes, an
enlisted man in the United States ma

in the Brooklyn navy yard, receives an
allowance from his wealthy parents he
finds the arduous routine of service
life a bore. He has a way of his own

trouble often in the last few months.
HIS last esca pade has cost him two
months of his freedom, and yesterday
he was put in the brig, or prison, con-
graduating himself on his luck in not
having been discharged dishonorably
from the service.
Barnes, who will inherit rich
estate, formerly was a sergeant. but
by his protracted absences without

in rank, and the chance he once had
of getting a commission as a second
lieutenant is lost. About two months
