Secret Investigations.

: IL is rather remarkable that in this
age of enlightened publicity the in
vestigation into the bribery charges
concerning member of the Maryland
legislature should have been conduct
ed behind closed doors.
A charge of this nature is either to
be substantiated or disproved. If it be
true, thesfull measure Of penalty should
be meted out TO the guilty ones, in
Guiding widespread knowledge of the
facts, and if it be rmfounded, the ex-
oneration should be equally public
There is always natural suspicion of
a desire to conceal something when the
inquiry is restricted and the veil of
secrecy is invoked.
The investigation committee erred
in its course of procedure. Open and
thorough examination should have been
adopted. The State of Maryland has
too high standing among the Com
monweslths to fear the application of
the probe in the broad light of day.
The Washington herald., 1912-03-23
Just the Same as Ever.

When the elder Weller told his son
Sanlivel to beware of the "vidders," he
uttered phrase which has become ia
miliar through frequent repetition.
And now comes the Rev. William
E. Keating, of ST. Patrick's Catholic
Church in Brockton, Mass, who in
sists that "a widow has no right to set
her cap for any man until all the young
girls have been supplied with hus-
bands" He wants fair deal for the
girls. =
Perhaps the widows in his congrega-
tion will abide by his counsel, and per-
haps they will not. This is a strange
world, and not the least strange is the
fact that people who are in love with
each other will get married, no matter
whether they be widows or widowers
or whether they are embarking upon
the sea of matrimony for the first time
The Washington herald., 1912-03-23
The Strike Must Be Averted.

Only week now remains before the

has yet been done to give assurance
that the strike will be averted.
Much, however, can be done within
week. Much ought to be done. Some
compromise ought to be effected so
that thousands of workmen will not
enter upon enforced idleness, while, at
the same time, the operators will not
be subjected to unjust conditions. The
experience of Great Britain is certainly
not to be desired in the United States.
The sentiment of the country de-
mands a settlement of the difficulty
upon fair basis. Every effort ought
to be put forth by both sides to avert
the threatened strike.
