case and as dire necessity as could
the Mississippi Valley states.

Washington, Dec. 5.-Deprecating
the fact that the Socialist party will
not be represented in the next con-

viewing Socialist gains in the past
election and predicting gain of 2,O00,.

"The Socialists cannot claim any

London, Dec. 5.-Notwithstandinp
the fact that an armistice has beer
signed by the belligerents in front oi
Constantinople. the warlike situation
confronting the great powers of Eu
rope is more critical than before the
temporary peace between Turkey and
the Balkan allies was effected.
Any untoward incident or provoca
tive act which in ordinary circum
stances would be considered trivial
would, it is thought, have the effect
of precipitating a struggle in which
not only Austria-Hungary and Servia
would engage, but Russia and Ger.
many as we'll, besides perhaps also
Italy, Roumania and France, as well
as Greece and Bulgaria.
Should any act set AustTia-Hungary
In motion il is believed forces in Rus
sia would be loosened which the Rus
sian emperor would find himself un.
able to resist, and the result would
be a war more disastrous than any In
the history of modern Europe.
Not Frightened by Germany.
Russia has retorted to what she
terms the rafting of German swords
by the imperial chancellor w saying
that a repetition of the methods re
sorted TO at the period when the occu
patton by Austria-Hungary OF Bosnia
and Herzegovina caused a crisis will
not now be admitted.
The prominence given by Chancel
lor Won Bethmann-Ho to the idea
of war was resented by the news
papers of st. Petersburg. The general
trend OF their comment is voiced by
the Novoe vremya, which says:
History is repeating itself, but ii
is not so easy now to force Russian
diplomacy into faiut hearted retreat
Such intimidation will frighten no
body"
The immediate withdrawal of the
vast Russian deposits in the German
banks is advocated by many of the
Russian journals.

THE ANCIENT LAW HOLDS GOOD.

The jury has decided that the four men
accused of the murder of RosenthaI. the
New York gambler are guilty of murder
in the first degree. Unless there is a re
versal Of the verdict in the higher courts,
they will have to go to the electric chair.
This brings us practically to the end Of
one of the most sensational murder cases
that have happened in the United States.
The four condemned men protested their
innocence throughout the trial, in the
face OF the testimony Of accomplices and
eye witness, and they told a seemingly
plausible story
They will still have the benefit of all
the safeguards the law throws around
men charged with crimes. If, when all
legal resources have been exhausted they
must still 90 to the chair, their case will
be only one more sad illustration of the
imperfect character Of Justice as admin
istercd by men,-assuming hat they are
innocent of the offcnsc charged against
them.
A miscarriage Of Justice. involving the

thing, and it can be nonc the less awful
because the victims were bad men. Yet
the fact will remain that they were bad
men guilty of 1nnumrabIc sins against
the laws of God and man. If they die their
deaths will he directly traceablc to the
lives they had deliberately chosen to
lead. 10 matter whether thew killed Ro-
senthal OF not. In the overwhelming ca
tastrophe which has ovcrtakcn them.
there is a great Sermon.-a sermon which
should be heard and needed by all Young
men. When the great apostle declared
that whatsoever a man SOWcth that shall
he also reap, he was announcing no new
truth, but proclaiming a law of the uni
verse. What he said was truth, heavens
truth,-but it would have been true if
he had never said il. In the last anaIy-
sis the four gunner" are suffering the
consequences of the wrongs they have
done, knowing them to be wrong.
