THE CHARLTON AFFAIR.

The international miX-up that has
arisen over Porter Charlton, the muir
derer of his American wife at Lake
Como, Italy, would seem to be a warn
ing note sounded to the nations of
the earth, calling for a worldwide
agreement permitting any country to
claim and secure fugitive criminals
who have escaped to other countries.
Porter Charlton, formerly an Oma-
ha youth, confesses that he murdered
his wife and threw her body into
Lake Como, in Italy. He was arrest
ed in New York and is being held
pending receipt of formal request of
Italy for eXtradition. When Italy
makes that claim, America will de-
mand that, if Charlton be returned to
Italy Italy in turn must agree to sur
render future criminals who are want
ed in the United States and who es-
cape to Italy. This, it is said, Italy
will refuse to agree to.
Anu 81 NldlllO Will 81 lltt' Ilt
will not be tried in this country be-
cause he has committed no crime in
this country And Italy doesn't care
particularly whether she gets him or
not, because it was an American mix.
up-an American murderer and an
American woman for the victim. So
the self-confessed slayer of his wife
will probably go unpublished, as an
example to the rest of the world of
the ease with which murder may be
done, and punishment escaped, if only
done in the right way.
1t puts the American government in
an attitude of harbOring the murderer
for the sake of getting even with Italy.
If it were possible, Americans would
like to see a trial in America if need
be. At all events, it would seem that
by his own confession, Charlton is a
sufficiently dangerous character to
compel the state to lock him up in
an asylum for the criminal insane for
the balance of his life. That much of
an object lesson might be taught the
inclined, if no more.

WASTE OF BAD ROADS.
About s25oooo,ooo Said to Be Annual
Toll of Poor Hiqhways

Two hundred and fifty million dol
lars are wasted annually on bad roads
in this country, which is noted for its
business sagacity and thrift and which
has been pronounced great success as
business community.
Add that waste to losses occasioned
by bad roads and the sum leaps to
billion Il year. 1t is estimated that, in
short, each man. woman and child in
the United States bears tax Of $3.50
because of bad roads.
If this doesn't show that good roads
are national question that bulks as
big as the tariff, the navy. foreign rela-
tons. commerce-anythng if it doesn't
prove that the federal government
ought TO turn to the roads question
with as much energy as it expends on
anything else. then there is nothing
more to be said.
