THE ELAINE DECISION.

Six of the twelve negroes convict ed of participation in the Elaine riot are to be executed. Cases against the other six will be re- tried. So the Supreme Court decided and by it's decision added still fur ther to the evidence supporting the claim that the Arkansas judiciary is amply qualified and entirely willing to give the negro justice.
 These six negroes whose sentences are upheld are to be electrocuted. They are guilty and they deserve the punishment, but the man who was responsible for their inspiration, if it can be called an inspiration, is practically free. Kansas has refused to return Robert Hill for trail in this state. And Hill might we'll re- member that he not only was rcspon- sible for heavy loss of life in Phil lips county last fall but that he is responsible now, in q measure, Tor the death of six negroes who listened to him, and were so unfortunate as not to escape to state where crimes of he sort arc overlooked, provid- ed they arc committed in another state.

WAR AS THE SPORT OF KINGS.

Such extracts as have been pub- lished of Grown Prince Frederick
 Wilhelm's book on the war reveal the crown prince as the typical mor- al imbecile of the Hohenzollern type, afflicted with mania for viewing war as a sort of amiable sport for kings. That he has written his book for home consumption in Germany with view to popularity with the disbanded army goes without saying That he has also set out to flattcr the allies by what passes for a frank and fervid appreciation of their national characteristics is also self-evident, and the motive back of of this kind of drollery is plain to all. But what pity it is that it cannot be brought home to this roy al weakling, who believes he has squared all accounts with the allies by declaring jauntily that they were all good sports and all good soldiers, with reservations, that world, weltering in misery because he and his father thought it was about time to have war and try this sport of kings on a big scale, is not in the mood to take him or his frivolous philosophy as to the sporting side of war with equanimity! That Freder- ick Wilhelm writes of so horrible tragedy as if it were joust orI a tournament is in itself damning offense and proves, if proof were needed, that he is just as Bourbon as his father. It is to be hoped, therefore, his exile as Wieringen will soon fall over his doings and his thinkings. For if in time of re- lative world peace Emerson said the world was "sick of kings," there is nothing in the situation revealed by what the Hohenzollerns and Haps- burgs still think today that gives cause for the world to take another point of view; it is sick of the criminals kings and sick of their daring to posture in the face of the evil they have wrought as stage favorites waiting for the inevitable applause because they brought about the greatest "Kriegspiel" (War-play) in history.
