Gaynor's Assailant.

That justly celebrated Jersey Justice is
again In evidence in the prompt convic-
ton OF the man who tried TO kill Mayor
Gaynor on shipbOard last August. The
man, having been declared sane by jury
on Tuesday. was yesterday placed on trial,
and before the close of the days session
he had been found guilty and sentenced
10 serve twelve years in the penitentiary
1t is noteworthy in this connection that
the man was not tried for the ofY~nse
which so greatly shocked the country,
that OF firing bullet into the head of the
chief executive of New York city. The
charge on which he was actually
arraigned was that of shooting Commits
sioner Edwards, who grappled with him
after Mayor Gaynor was shot and who in
the scrimmage received a slight bullet
wound in the arm. The assault upon
Edwards instead of that upon Gaynor is
now tried. because there is still a nos
sibiiity that the charge in the Siaynor
case may be murder. IL Mayor Gaynor
should die within year of the date of
his shooting, the wound being con-
tributory cause of death. Gallagher NAV
then he charged with murder in the first
degree. III he were tried on the GaynOr
assault charge now and convicted he
could not be tried for murder IL the
mayor were to die within the statutory
limit Hence the expedient of placing
him on trial for shooting Edwards The
facts IN this case are perfectly well
known. The man himself confessed &c
shooting the mayor with an intent to kill
and the technical substitution of one
charge for the other answered the pres
ent requirements of the law. incidentally
it is a matter for general public gratifica
ton that the insanity plea advanced in
this instance was rejected II would have
been extremely dangerous for such q
plea to be established to relieve the
would-be assassin from other punish
ment than detention in an asylum. TIL,
laws for the protection of human lii,
should be enforced to the limit

Postal Savings Banks.

The operation of the postal savings
banks. one of which has been opened in
each state as an experimental beginning
will be observed with the keenest interest
not only by the government officials who
are charged with this duty, but by bankers
and merchants generally. The whole pur-
pose of the postal savings bank is to en-
courage small savings. to inculcate the
habit of thrift. to utilize the confidence
the people feel in the government as a
means of overcoming a prejudice which,
unfortunately. exists in some quarters
against banking institutions. The money
collected by this means will not be drawn
from trade. nor will 1t in any appreciate
measure be taken from the banks On
the contrary, in large measure it will be
saved to business by being put to the
best use. 1t will so into circulation
through the deposits the government will
make with the designated banks and the
investments in bonds. Much of this money
collected by the postal savings banks will
have been taken from hiding and hoard
Ing places. where it. has been Of no use
whatever TO business or to the individual
owner. The moment it is deposited in the
post Office 1t begins to work. and if the
postal savings banks are utilized to the
extent that Is expected business will be
decidedly improved in consequence OF the
liberation of a large volume Of cash now
held jealousy in idleness through fear of
the ordinary banking institutions. q fear
for which there is only slight warrant
inasmuch as In all but the rarest in.
stances the fduciary trust is faithfully
discharged by the banks of this country.
AS soon as the system is fully installed
the people will find banking facilities

vincing, while several have been sent
away because satisfactory addresses of
friends whom they were seeking had not
been given.
1t is highly desirable that strict watch
be kept at the ports of entry in this
country to prevent the inflow OF unde-
sirable aliens, paupers. those suffering
with communicable diseases and those
likely to join the ranks of the lawbreak-
ers. But at the same time it is desirable
that in the enforcement of the laws and
the regulations the immigrant officials
should not be unjust in even few In
dividual cases. The question arises
whether the officials are warranted in
determining whether there is room in
any specific labor market for more work
ers. If the immigration offices are to
pass upon this question, there should be
a statutory provision requiring official re-
ports to be made through the bureau of
immigration in this city by all labor
using interests throughout the United
States which will permit all accurate es-
innate of the demand for help. On such
basis it would be possible for inspectors
at the ports to decide justly whether
there is a prospect of the immigrants
maintaining themselves or becoming pub
lie charges.
The whole immigration service should
be operated to the end of giving free en-
trance to those who meet the general re-
quirements of the law. Technicalities may
we'll be waived occasionally if there is
small danger of public disadvantage.
If the United States could estab-
lish a screenins system on the other
side of the water. through the co-opera-
ton of the foreign governments, 1t would
be spared the necessity of grievously dis
appointing many who now come west
ward in perfect good faith and in con-
fidence Of finding here an opportunity
to maintain themselves decently. but who
cannot quite meet the demands Of the
law.

Against New Nationalism
From the Philadelphia Ledger.


The first important opinion delivered
by the new Chief Justice accompanies
the unanimous decision of the Supreme
Court in the Panama libel suit. There
never was any doubt that the Supreme
Court would affirm, as it has DONE the
judgment of the court below in dis
missing the foolish prosecution instituted
by the Roosevelt administration. 1t has
dignified this manifestation Of the new
nationalism only to the extent of setting
forth the reasons that refute it. 1t is
this, rather than any new definition of
law. that gives interest to the present
deliverance. The specific accusations of
corruption in the purchase Of the Panama
canal, which was published in the New
York World. were probably libelous, and
the persons accused had the right and
duty Of prosecuting the publishers. whom
the laws Of the state of New York held
fully accountable. 1t was President
Roosevelt who conceived the extraor-
binary idea, which he communicated in
a special message to Congress, that this
publication was "a libel upon the United
States government" and should be prose-
cuted by the government. There being
no United States statutes relating to libel,
it was left to the Attorney General to in
vent a form Of instituting proceedings.

Ing averred in behalf OF the FOREIGNERS
who seek entrance TO this country that
many Of them are deported unfairly. on
insufdciens grounds and after an un.

some cases have occurred where the
immigration officials at New York have
undertaken to determine whether or not
the applicants for admission. seeking EN-.
pIoyment as laborers. were likely to be-
come public charges. by reference to the
state OF the labor market in the cite.
to which they have been bound. In
some other cases the promises OF rela-
tives in this, country TO provide for the
immigrants have been rejected as uncou.

Stephen 3. Elkins.

The death of Senator Elkins, which
would have been loss to his party at
any time. will prove a heavy loss to 1t
at this time. Public questions, ripe and
ripening. are of a character for which he
had large qualifications. 4 lawyer by
profession, and good one i'm the days
of his practice, he had come to be a
business man of national reputation and
connections, familiar with big transac-
tions and a recognized power in difficult
negotiations. His advice in shaping legis-
lation, which may follow the important
decisions soon expected Of the Supreme
Court would have been valuable to the
whole country.
The Importance of Mr. Elkins in the
Senate was confessed by three committee
assignments. He was chairman of the
committee on interstate commerce, a
member of the committee on appropria-
tions, and third on the committee on
rules. Those places gave him opportunity
to show his quality both as legislator
and as politician, and he ranked with the
leaders of the body. When estimates and
strictly business questions were in hand
he came next in influence after Mr..
Aldrich. chairman of the finance commit
tions. And it is to be noted as an evil
can fortunes in the Senate that neither of
that able trio will appear in the next
Congress.
The effect of this death on the republi-
can party of West Virginia may be far
reaching. There was hope held out that
if he recovered his health the recent
democratic victory could not be repeated
two years hence. His party suffered
somewhat from his absence from last
years campaign. though there is no rea-
son to believe that even had he been in
charge the state would have been saved
to the republicans. But now that he is
gone, who will take his place? He was
the ablest politician in the state, and, OF
all her public men, the most prominently
identified with her later remarkable de-
velopment. The man who POUNDS towns,
builds railroads and delves for coal and
ores in such a commonwealth becomes
more than a party leader
elr. Elkins' success was another tribute
to American institutions He made his
own way, under heavy difficulties at the
start, and in the rough and perilous life
of the frontier He succeeded there, as
later in the older section of the country.
He liked public affairs. and studied them
from practical standpoint. He made
some enemies. but many friends-the
latter much the stronger-and by them he
will be long remembered. Although
seventy. he had until recently shown SO
conspicuously the port and energy of a
physical giant, the feeling is that he
was cut off prematurely.

A New York Puzzle.

Pity the sorrows Of those New York
democrats who aspire to succeed Mt.
Depew in the Senate.
1t is objected to Edward NJ. Shepard
that he is not enough Of an organization
man. He Is liable to spells of independ-
cnce. In the recent campaign. although
with his eyes peeled for the Senate, lie
openly opposed an organization nominee
for a judgeship. The nomination had
been made at Leader Murphy's dictation.
end represented Mr.. Murphy's personal
feelings, but Mr.. Shepard would not &C
cept it. Hence the resentment of many
Tammany men.
1t is objected to William F. Sheehan
that he is too much of an organization
man, and moreover is under the control
of corporate wealth. He bows to party
behes,s at home. no matter what they
may be. He likewise knows his employ
ers' crib. Men of Independent mind as
sert that his election would chill the spirit
which made democratic success In No
vember possible. and make further sue
no corporation attorney, for senator.
The office calls for man of individuality,
and of independent business or profess
1t is objected to Mr.. Cohalan and to
Mr. Cram that they represent nothing
but the personal favor of Mr.. Murphy.
They are his closest chums. The former
is a good lawyer, and a sort of private
legal adviser to the Tammany leader.
The latter is a sort of adviser in general
to his friend. He has pulls which Mr..
Murphy has not, and the latter has
pulls which he has not. The two men
exchange the usufruct of their respective
pulls This, it is held, is not the
proper equipment for senator. 1t
would be as bad to have one of Murphy's
men in the Senate as one of Thomas F.
Ryan's men. The new man should not
wear tag or a collar.
All of this is very we'll. but consider
the puzzle presented. Find the New
York democrat of statewide prominence
who Is altogether free from these objec-
tons Where is he who is neither too
little nor too much of an organization
man? Where is he. either of the bust
ness or the legal world, who has no con-
nections with corporate wealth, and has
not shared its favor in some way?
Where is he in the big town with any
sort of political prospects who is not in
innate with Charles F.. Murphy, and
would not in the Senate be under sus-
picion of being Murphy's man?
In the recent campaign Mr. Murphy
vas the supreme individuality, and his
war chest was filed by the corporations
What exists today is the fruits of their
Joint labors. Why blacklist at this time
The authors of the democratic victory?

Open.Air Schools.
From the Boston Transcript.

The coming generation, in our cities al
least. is likely to have a more lively ap-
probation of the value of fresh air than
the one that has preceded. Within the
past three years nearly fifty cities have
established open-air schools for the ben
eft of tuberculous school children. Prov
idence began it and other municipalities
have followed on. though not all have
developed the idea to the same extent
Boston, for instance. might proffta ably
carry it farther than she has. Pawtucket
R. L., not only has fine open-air school,
but PROPOSES to have at least one OPEN
air room in every school building in the
city, where delicate children can receive
the tonic influences which nature so
beautifully provides.

One Blessing in Postal Banks

There is one phase of the new postal

ward helping what is often a pitiable
condition. 1t will be noticed that mar
ried women's accounts and those of chill
dren are to be received by the govern
ment free from the interference and con-
troll of any person save the deposition
The fiction of the married woman's en-
tire subservience to her husband is thus
given a final blow by the nation. The
more cruel fiction of the absolute right
of the parent to the control Of his
child's property is even more thoroughly
wiped out. So far as the American gov
eminent is concerned, there will be an
ending of what might be called the
padrone system in the family. 1t re-
mains to be seen whether the oppressed
of many humble homes will have the
intelligence and courage to assert their
natural rights.
