TRENTON. Nov. cit is evil

THE country was undoubtedly dis
appointed in the failure to more ef-
fectively reduce taxes, so burden
some nationally and locally. Taxes

tinued. 1.-TWO years ago the people

was not as pronounced as they de-
sired and so far as L have the re-
turns throughout the country 1t is
evident hat the people voteo
against those who were hostile to
industry and enterprise.
"a closer touch with the rank and
file is made evident by the result.
Our method of making a platform
is undemocratic and illogical. The

made by the voters who vote n
not by the candidates who want
votes. The party voters have a right

1 am told that no murder mystery
has created such public interest as
the Hall murder in New Jersey.
This is not surprising, for it has all
the elements that stir curiosity; 1t
was a love drama; some Of the ac-
tors are people of wealth and posi-
ton; there were elements of saw
agery about the crime; the sug-
gested motive is Jealousy, and such
clues as there may have been m
mediately after the commission OF
the crime were allowed to disap-
pear. 1t is the element of mystery
that counts.
How little public interest is taken
in a murder when the assassin walks
into a police station and throw
himself upon the mercy of the po-
lice. If the same man had made a
sensational escape OF had done
something to suggest that he was
the agent of a widespread con-
spiracy, he would have been the
talk of the continent.
If Stinie Morrison in London, had
not scratched the letter IS" upon
the cheek of his victim with the
point of a knife, little interest would
have been aroused. 1t was a case OF
murder for robbery, and the u
derer tried to invest it with public
significance.

NEW BRUNSWICK, Nov. 9.-It
Is as impossible to generalize about
the detection of crime as 1t is about
a criminal.
J We are all potential criminals in
! that, given the temptation and the
lack of self-control, we might at any
| time crafty our wishes at the ex-
pense of others. We are not all
| ground to one pattern, and If the
| whole world, under some malign,
planetary influence, were to break
the law simultaneously. every crime
on the calendar would figure in the
list.
Speaking broadly, a successful de-
| tective must have an organization, a
knowledge of human nature, and
luck, in about equal proportions.
| When the luck predominates, he is
very successful indeed.
His first object must be to insure
that no circumstantial facts escape
| him. He must make a thorough
| search of the scene of the crime.
If it is a murder, there must be a
minute medical examination of the
| body and every fact must be record
ed in writing.
Detective Must Be Psychologist
A photograph on a graduated
scale, giving the distance in feet of
every object that appears in the
field, should be taken, preferably on
a camera invented by a police officer
in Vienna. Experience has shown
that a photograph is less puzzling to
a jury than a plan drawn to scale.
The knowledge of human nature
| comes in when the neighbors and
| other possible witnesses are being
questioned. The police officer must
then be persuasive and discriminate
ing: he must be able. at a glance,
to see when a witness is keeping
something back, or when he is tell
ing more than he knows.
1t is not until all the evidence
has been got together that the de-
! ductive processes car be INDUCED in,
and then deduction should be con-
| fined at first to ascertaining who
had a motive for committing the
crime.
