being understood by the reading pub
lie. The day for one sided represent
tation of the case is past and now we
are getting the facts of the whole
situation. The plot was deeply laid
but the senate has found the weak
spot.
Page Record The Cowan impeach-
ment case still continues to be the
center of attraction, and with the evil
dence of both sides in, with the ex-
ception of the rebuttaI even the most
radical papers are forced to admit
that the evidence does not amount to
much. If the accused is to be given
the benefit OF a reasonable doubt, as
in other cases, it is hardly to be ex-
pected that Cowan will be found guilty
as charged. 1t is remarkable how little
of the evidence published in the pa
pers at the time the case was before
the house of representatives has been
produced before the senate and it is
also remarkable that several OF the
most serious charges made against the
accused judge at the time were not
even incorporated in the final charge.
On account OF the nature of the case
and the public manner in which IL has
been discussed, the senate sitting as a
court Of justice can hardly be consider
ed unprecedented, and vet we believe
this body of intelligent men is more
capable of deciding the case with the
evidence before them. than are the
editorial writer's who SO persistently
criticise them. Whatever the final de-
cision is. it should be accepted by. the7
people. and this incident, which Is not
at all credit to the state, should be
considered settled and left without
further discussion.

THE UNPROTECTED.

Is anything more than mere habit
and ,reprehensible habit--back of the
fact that popular indignation rises to
a high pitch at ell manner Of disasters
in America--save the most common
and terrible disasters OF all-those
which happen in mines?
LOSS Of life on the rivers, where two
of the capricious elements have to be
combatted, is followed by such popu-
lar condemnation that licenses are re-
voked-men are indicted-and punish
ments are inflicted.
Fires in tenement buildings and
sweatshops are followed by a universal
cry for redress for those who suffer.
officials are condemned and proprietors
of buildings-where safety appliances
have not been abundant--suffer the
Just condemnation Of the public.
Nor can there ne a wish to discour-
age the swift and strong disapproval
of negligence anywhere-when human
lives are at stake.
But why has it been made possible
for a condition under which scores OF
miners perish almost every month
with comparatively little to mark
their passing save an occasional extra
heavy headline in the newspapers?
II is inconceivable-at this stage in
the development of safety devices and
of all kinds-that there are
no ways of making the mines safe
place in which men may earn their
bread 1t Is not to be believed that
mines could not be properly ventilated
and otherwise made safe-if proper
were taken-and a rea-
sonable amount of money spent.
Are the people really Indifferent to
the fate Of those who must go into the
oaverns of the earth to toll?
