Not a Master Criminal. :

Much s. being said about Hans
Schmidt. as a master criminal mon
ster of siniauity. a dangerous enemy of
society. and crime after crime, is being
attributed to him Jas one capable of vio-
lating the law almost. withf impunity and
escaping through his cieyerness and
daring The circumstances of the muir
der for which he was arrested certainly
do not Justify this, Characterization
That was a clumsy crime executed
bunglingly and with. an amateurish at
tempt at cofrcealment. 1t is really re-
markaBle that SO long a time elapsed
since it's commission and THE identif1ca-
ton of the body a1dsthe capture of the
murderer. Had Hans Schmidt been the
master criminal he is now alleged to be.
the crafty. resourceful trace-concealing
murderer that he is in some dispatches
described, he would surely have made q
much better job of his latest homicide
AMI have more effectually eliminated all
clues. Viewed in retrospect he did
everything badly. and it is by no means
to the credit OF the New York police
that he was ultimately caught. Only the
hardness with which the detectives fol-
lowed obvious trails enabled Schmidt to
evade detection as long as he did.

Progressives and Republicans.

MIR. Roosevelt says to his followers
there must be no compromise with the
republicans. Stand firm. Continue the
organiza tons. and add to their number
and effectiveness wherever possible. Keep
the doors open SO that recruits from the
republicans. with eyes opened at last
may come in. But all talk of compro
mise is bosh and should cease. The pro-
gressives have Just begun to fight, and
their ammunition chests are full And
so forth.
Following this comes story that some
Of the Rooseveltians are hoping t. see
him lead the republican party in 1916.
and have an organization in hand to OBJ
tain the presidential nomination for him.
Does Mr. Roosevelt know of this If
not, will he put his foot on the move
ment as soon as his attention is called
to it,
This talk about the boss bull mooser
IS based upon an assertion that the re-
publicans have no man within their
ranks strong enough in popularity to
lead their party against Mr.. Wilson
These progressives believe that Mr..
Wilson wants, and will succeed in Sc
curing. q -NHu. a. III cH'iiA'
they are expecting him to be a strong
candidate. Hence the necessity of op-
posing him with a strong candidate.
They concede great ability to Mr.. Root,
Mr. Lodge. Mr.. Fairbanks, Mr.. Borah
and some others. but hold that there is
not among the number a man capa Die
of harmonizing the elements that parted
company last year, and that must be re-
united if the democracy is to be de-
feated.
Mr.. Roosevelt they think, can turn the
trick In their opinion he has the ability
and the popularity requisite, and would
give Mr.. Wilson run for the money
They make no reply when reminded OF
his denunciation last year and since
Of the republican party, except to say
that until last year he had always been
a republican,, and that with no great
difficulty the way might be smoothed
for his return.
This topic will be Of greater interest
after next years elections. II the DUH
moosers at Mr.. Roosevelt's instance, and
practically under his guidance. hold aloof
from the republicans in the contests for
the next House, and by that course
bring in another democratic majority,
which will make the legislative record

paign, talk of Mr.. Roosevelt as the man
TO untangle what he has helped to

impress any republicans with feeling

Paroling Prisoners.

That progress has been made toward a
better system of punishments Is evil
deuced by an incident which has just oc-
Cured in New York state under the
operations of the parole law. Eight con-
victs serving under long term sentences
had been selected to appear before che
state parole board. They were held at
a state prison farm at a considerable
distance from the prison at which the
board was to sit to hear their cases and
presumably to grant them provisional
freedom Instead OF sending these eight
men on this journey under guard, as Is
the usual method IN the transportation
of convicts. the warden Of the prison
tried the experiment of letting them
make their own way virtually without
guard He travelled with them part Of
the distance, to Albany. but merely IN
order to effect transfer OF ,transporta-
ton, and he did not occupy the same
car in which the convicts rode. AT Al
bany he parted company with them and
left them to proceed on honor to their
destination. The eight men wore no
prison garb, but dressed as would ordi-
nary laborers, and were in no wise con-
spicuous i'm appearance Each Of the
eight at Albany seemed proud of the trust
placed in him and expressed n determl-
nation to proceed as instructed and to
profit by the parole expected.
IL these eight men are restored to
liberty under parole the chances are in
favor of their leading good lives here
after, provided society gives them 4
chance. Fortunately there is DISPOSE

For the result might be accepted as In

that might bring the republicans and the
bull moosers together for the popular
choice next year of a successor to Mr.
Root in the Senate.

Refugees From Mexico.

An interesting situation develops, in
connection with the demand of some
American refugees from Mexico who have
just landed in California that they be
returned to that country in order to take
care of their property. hastily abandoned
under summons from the State Depart
ment or that the United States undertake
it's guardianship. 1t appears from the
petition that has been addressed to the
State Department that these refugees

tives off the United States government

taken az once Only upon this basis.

~eturn 10 the United States.
1t is diffionlt to see just what the State
Department ean,.1o in the premises IL
cannot, guarantee to these American RES
ugees the safeguarding of their proper
ties. for it cannot assure them of mil
itary guards nor is it likely to. pay their
expenses back to-. Mexico in case they
wish to retuyrr there. 1t cap really only
say to the refugees, that they left at
their own risk even though urged to do
SO by this government. The State De-
uartment's warning to Americans In Mex

we're in, actual peril; of their lives Later,
doubtless much will be heard about the
degree of urgency with which the case
was stated to them officially. The Star
has already pointed out the possibilities
of confusion and resentment on the part
of the refugees which this situation in
wolves and it is to be hoped that way
will be found to prevent the losses that
are now feared by, the Americans fleeing
from Mexico. although the case does at
this juncture seem most difficult and full
of embarrassing possibilities. i
