STOPPING THIRD DEGREE.
Natural Reaction Against the Abuse
of the Third Degree.

New York city police began the sys-
tematic of what is termed the
'third degree" in eXtorting confessions
from alleged criminals and it is natural
that the first step toward Legislation OIL
the subject should be taken there. The
New York Senate passed ii measure pro-
viding that the confession of criminal
shall not be used against him. unless it
is made in the presence of his counsel.
This is a natural reaction against the
abuse of the third degree" by Superin-
tendent Byrnes, the first to practice il
in an extreme way and his successors
But law such as has passed one
chamber of the New York Legislature
goes farther than the common law. The
confession of criminal has weight as
evidence at common law, but by the
common law the prisoner must be under
no compulsion, he must be warned that
all he says may be used against him
AMI he must have the opportunity to see
his counsel
The police not alone in New York
SO frequently disobey the law in extort-
ing the confession of criminals that
positive legislation is needed Nothing
is gained for justice by extorting con-
fessions. Nothing is secured for the
protection of society by system which,
discredits confessions because some are
extor.ed-PhiIadelphi Press.

IMPERSONAL JOURNALISM.
Influence of Editorial Writers De-
pends on Their Standing and In
teqrity.

DR.. Woodrow Wilson, president OF
Princeton university, tells us that the
influence of editorial writers nowadays
depends on their standing and integrity.
Theodore Roosevelt is generally be
lieved to be intellectually as well as
morally honest; and Roosevelt is an ed
itorial contributor to the Outlook, Il
publication which does not begin to have
as wide following as the newspaper
for which Arthur Brisbane writes. This
is because Mr.. Brisbane is a more en-
gaging writer than Mr. Roosevelt.
There are ADLER editorial writers than
either Of these men, says the New York
Press only in the profession of Jour
nalism itself are they known. Their
influence IS more lasting and more ben
eficiai than Roosevelt's or Brisbanes.
Their combined influence shapes the
policy of government to a vast extent.
| even if it does not accomplish its object
in a manner so spectacular.
George AGe humorously regrets the
passing of the old-time editor who
| called an opponent not a malefactor or
an insurgent or undes irable. but "a
poltroon. a hellbound, pusillanimous
| liar, an unmitigated horse thief. a jack
l a cur and whelp.
| The most picturesque editorial writer
| in this country is Henry Watterson, but

The newspapers of the United States
