Curbs for Crime.

A committee of the American Bar
association, appointed last year to
make an investigation Of crime condi-
lions in the large cities of the United
States and to report it's findings, to-
gether with suggestions for remedial
measures, has prepared a tentative
statement of presentation to the
association at its meeting in
San Francisco in August. Some
phases of the report which have be-
come public are particularly worthy of
note at the present time. 1t is de-
clared that the prevalence Of an alb
normal volume of crime in large cities
els the result of years of mollycod-
ding and sympathy by misinformed
and ill-advised meddlers. This atti.

clared, "has disintegrated the admin

Tornado Insurance.

The tornado season is about to BIOS
som forth, not in the sense OF beau
tiful flower, but as a black demon OF
destruction over which no earthly
man can exercise control.
The possibility Of financial loss u.s.
however, reduced to the minimum
through the issuance of windstorm and
tornado policies in good reliable
prompt paying companies.
Windstorm and tornado insurance
costs but a few pennies per hundred
and is so cheap that no person can at
ford to be without it's protection on
their properties.
This agency represents both the
Connecticut Fire and Michigan Fire
& Marine and therefore offers yor
! policies worth their face value 36E

Foolish Commissioners.

At the meeting of the county COM
missioners this week the matter Of
making an appropriation for the sal
airy of county nurse for the ensuing
year was taken up and it was decided
not to make an appropriation for that
purpose. The county nurse is one OF
the most important servants of the
people of the county and every county
needs and should have one, and when
a county gets a nurse as capable as
Miss Martens she should be kept on
the job. The action Of the board is re-
GREETED here where Miss Martens and
her work are known and appreciated
and it is hoped that the action of the
board is not fnal.-Madison Press.

War Pr0fteers.

Many people will agree that the
most contemplate scoundrel on earth
is the war profiteer.
The traitor may have followed the
dictates Of his own warped conscience.
The Stacker may have been unable to
master his own cowardice. Each may
offer the shadow of an excuse before
the bench Of public opinion. But the
man who profted fraudulently at the
expense of a suffering country can
present no reason for his existence.
Everything about him is evil.
It will be worth $500,000 for the
United States to know who her mean
est inhabitants are. The attorney gen.
eral should have that much money and
more if by it's use he can do anything
to clear up war scandals and bring the
offenders to justice. They are thieves
and murderers Of the blacklist sort.
No human tribunal can impose ade-
! quate punishment. We hope A. Conan
Doyle's spiritual purgatory, which he
described in a recent lecture here, is
more than a fantastic dream just be-
cause Of these men. To be plunged
for 100000 years into terrible, cold,
loneliness, looked upon with disgust
by all their former acquaintances on
earth might mean something to them.
Because if it's very b1ackness, how
ever, war profiteering is a serious
charge to make against any man. APP
pearances during the period of hostili-
ties were misinterpreted often. Bust
ness was thrown into unprecedented
conditions. Only the most complete
array of facts, as Attorney General
Daugherty says, can justify placing
this disgrace against the name of any
man. A thorough investigation may
serve to clear the names Of innocent
men from unjust Suspicious as we'll as
lead to the punishment of few guilty
The war years were filled with ru'
mors on which hasty conclusions were
based. Workmen were sure that thei1
employers were profteers. F'amilie!
were convinced that the neighborhoot
grocer was taking full advantage o:
: any opportunity to rob them. Wha
: soldiers said about every man in bust
ness near military camp could no
be repeated in decent society. Yet il
2 most cases all of these were tru'
Americans and good citizens, making
an unequal struggle against misrep
( resentation.
i. The time has come for a thorough
;, housekeeping. Congress and the de
partment of justice will fail in thei
duty if they allow any guilty men t.
e go unpublished or any innocent men t
S continue under the suspicious of thei
: neighbors. -Washington Herald.

Announcement.

Announcement.
To the Voters of Mile Laos County.
Ladies and Gentlemen:
I am a candidate for the office of
County Attorney and hereby take the
liberty Of asking your support at the
polls. If am correctly informed, as
I believe am, great number Of
voters want me to make the run and
take the office. fully appreciate this
encouragement. I believe in the
Cleveland maxim, that "A public office
is public trust" so if I am elected
county attorney, shall be under obli-
cations to render as efficient service
as I am able to give.
Respectfully yours,

the cufbing Of the crime that assumed
undue proportions in the last few
years are so fundamental and SO OBJ
vious that they should be acted upon
in advance Of any formal presenta-
ton by the National Bar association.
For one thing, it is found that crime
increases or decreases in the proper
ton that punishment is swift and GER
tain. It has been found that in Chica-
go, for instance, the crime of murder
has decreased by 81 per cent as re-
suit of speeding up trials Of criminals.
This matter Of speeding up justice per-
haps is one the bar association
itself can exert the greatest influence
upon, and it will be one of the best
things accomplished by any body in
many day if at it's coming meeting it
evolves definite plan for bringing
that idea to a reality.
Another matter about which there
is no doubt, which the committee re-
port makes prominent, is the necessl-
ty for more strict regulation of the
sale of firearms. It is pertinently re-
marked that crimes of violence in
large cities will not be reduced to nor
NAL until the gunman is done away
with. 1t is pointed out that Texas
and Missouri have solved the problem
and that the solution of it elsewhere
may require the prohibition, under
limitation, Of the manufacture anc
sale of revolvers and cartridges. 9th
er suggestions refer to the Sloppy sen
timentality in the handling of insanit!
pleas" and advocate the Imprisonment
for life of professional" criminals.
No matter how radical the remedie
may be, the suppression of abnorma
crime is demanded. It is hoped tina
by the time the National Bar associa
ton meets to consider the matter I
strong public sentiment will have bee1
created to speed it to fulfillment o
practical crime-curbing plans.-Wash
ington Post.
