THE MEXICAN MURDERS.

The cold blooded murder of two
Americans in the Mexican state OF
Sonora-for the incident at Cananea
appears to have been just that-cann0t
be passed lightly by as negligible, but
neither should II provoke precipitate
and violent action. The first thing TO
be done Is to ascertain, If possible. the
facts and to fix the immediate respon-
sibility. That task has been under
taken by the government with prompt
ness and energy. Then will come the
exaction of such reparation RS can be
made and the punishment Of the Grim
inals. which can he securely left TO the
authorities at Washington.
The assumption IS that the Mexican
rebels did the deed. That is the sug-
gestion, or more than the suggestion,
Of the Mexican government, and II Is
materially strengthened by the reports
of recent threats by General Orozco,
the rebel leader, or his comrades
though the latter will probably charge
II upon the federals. The motive for
the crime is in doubt. The commonest
supposition is that II was to provoke
American Intervention. which some OF
the insurgents are known TO have de-
sired and sought. Another theory ~
that the victims had been serving In
the rebel army and had left 1t, and
were hanged as deserters which seems
far less probable. No motive for the
commission "a the crime by the fed
erals is perceptible.
1t Is obvious, however, that ultimate
responsibility must rest upon the Next
can government, which Is responsible
for all that happens I'm that country
for the rebels and for their deeds, since
they are not recognized as belligerents
and since the government has not adj
mtted that they are beyond It's power
to control. The duty rests upon that
government Of detecting, capturing and
furnishing the actual murderers and
those who directed the preparation Of
the crime; and Of making such further
reparation as may be possible. There
is no reason TO suppose that 1t will
shirk any part of this duty. and unless
II should do so it would not properly be
subject to denunciation.

TYPICAL DIVERSITY.

Nothing could better illustrate the
unsettled state Of opinion regarding
trust regulation than the divergent
views expressed by members OF the
Stanley committee These nine meln-
hers of Congress have spent many
months investigating the steel trust
and have felt II incumbent upon them
to make recommendations for the
amendment of the laws regarding
trusts and interstate commerce. Aet
only four Of the nine members are able
to agree throughout on policy ana
ne views expressed run all the way
from practically letting the sherman
ac' alone to embarking the govern
ment on the enormous and doubtful
undertaking Of price regulation.
Nor does the fact that four members
are able 10 agree upon policy indicate
that there is any considerable body OF
opinion favorable 10 that policy. either
i'm Congress or in the country at large.
The proposals Of the four. supported To
some extent by two or three other
members Of the committee. are for the
most part wild and impractIcable. The
intelligent opinion Of the country has
already condemned them.
The trust question has succeeded the
currency question both in Congress
and in the country, as the one upon
which there is no agreement and no
approach to an agreement Everybody
has plan. There are almost as many
plans as there are voters. The cur
rency question has been before the ma
ton many years. In one form or an
other it has been the issue of several
national campaigns, and still 1t re-
mains unsolved. though there has been
progress, for there are now not so
many plans and not so many persons
ready to settle it offhand. The com
parlson is not encouraging for those
who hope to see solution OF the trust
problem reached soon.

KEEPS HIS OFFICE.

Mr.. Wilson's decision not to resign
the GovernOrship Of New Jersey dur
ing the Presidential campaign accords
with general expectation and. It may
frankly be said, with precedent and
reason. Excepting in the cases OF
.,uGges who nave been nominated for
political Offices It has been common,
and probably the usual rule, for men
TO remain in office while running for
higher places. The practice may mean
some sighting Of the duties Of the Of
fee which the candidate holds in favor
OF efforts to make sure his election TO
the one TO which he aspires, but such
impairment Of public interests Is no
greater than that which might be in
volved in q change of functionaries.
In the present case Governor Wilson
has long been so persistent an absentee
that the state has become accustomed
to his habit. OF course, when he has
been absent from the state his place
has been filled by highly competent
acting Governor, and that Will not be
the case when he Is present in the
state but ignoring state work for that
OF his Presidential campaign, and it
would probably be too much to expect
him TO spend his time at headquarters
outside Of the state so that al acting
Governor might be in charge in New
Jersey.
The most interesting feature of the
situation which is thus presented is
that which has to do with the next Gov
ernorship of the state in the contin-
gency Of DR.. Wilson's election as Pres
ident. If he Is not elected he will Of
course remain in office for the last
year Of his term. But IL he should be
elected he would have to retire from
the GOvernorsbip at least as early as
March 8, and he would then be sue
ceeded by the President Of the State
Senate as acting Governor until new
Governor, having been elected In No
vember, 1913. was installed In the fol-
lowing January. That circumstance
will invest with peculiar interest the

SUGGESTS POLICE CHANGES
Correspondent Believes State Officials
Should Manage the Force.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: Some changes must be made in
the Police Department Of this city.
Here are a few suggestions: Let gam
bling houses, the social evil and all
places and houses Of questionable repute
be taken out of the hands OF the police
4 committee Of citizens should attend to
those things, because just 80 long as
the police are allowed to regulate them
there will be graft in the department
and perhaps murder. State officials and
the Governor should engage and man
age the police; then city politicians can
not change them around for doing their
duty.
Take nll politics out OF the police and
tho police out OF politics. Then things
will be much better in this city. The
state can put on good men at 5000 and
increase them to $1,000. which is fair
wages for policeman. New York police
have had their own way too. long. 1t Is
nigh time that the people have say in
the matter. 4 PLAIN CITIZEN.
