The SocoloW Case.

Gov. Miller OF New York formally
asks Gov. Richie Of Maryland to send
back to New York city Walter Soco-
low, under indictment in Baltimore for
murder. arrested in New York and kid
raped from a New York courtroom by
Baltimore detectives in the course of
habeas corpus proceedings. Gov.
Ritchie has already said that Socolow
will remain in Maryland, but 1t is now
10 be seen whether he will refuse the
requisition of the Governor Of New
York.
Socolow. fugitive from Maryland
was taken in New York. and admitted
his identity. Extradition proceedings
were started. hut q writ OF habeas
corpus had been sworn out to delay
removal. The writ was vacated and
Immediately, before the judge had, as
he intended, signed a new writ which
had been prepared. the prisoner was
rushed out of the room through con-
nivance, 1t is believed, Of New York
policemen, and raced by train out Of
the state. These proceedings were In.
stantly denounced by the judge as a
contempt Of court.
This case is L vivid illustration Of
the impatience felt at the delays Of
he law. There was no doubt that

tradition by taking advantage of
technicalities. There was nothing to be
lost through delay, and nothing to be
gained by it, save perhaps by the
counsel In New York. The man was
certain to be sent to Maryland for
trial, being under indictment there and
freely acknowledging his identity. Yet
the act Of snatchlng him out Of the
hands Of the court, however unwar-
ranted the technicality making for de-
lay, was calculated to breed contempt
for the court. and as such should be
punished.
The evil of the laws delays is not to
be cured by such radical measures.
The laws themselves must be changed,
amended to insure speedier trials, to
limit the profitless technical procedure
Of postponement. Gov. Miller Is per-
fectly right in his protest to Gov.
Ritchie. and even though the proce-
dure may be bare formality, Socolow
should be returned to New York. II

the next train. The strict observance
Of the proprieties may in this case

about a reform to the end Of a surer
and more efficient administration of

Low Waters.

After an unusually wet season, with
a total rainfall since the LIST Of Janu.
ary of over seven inches above the
average of thirty.f1ve years past in
this vicinity, it is surprising to see
evidences of a severe drought. There
has been practically no rain here since
the record-breaking fall Of the morn
ing Of September 2, when 5.16 inches
fell within eight hours.
Reports from Fredericksburg. Va,
show a serious condition Of low water
in the Rappahannock which is caus-
ing a shortage Of power and threaten
ing the closing Of industries dependent
upon the river. This is most unusual
condition, and reflects the abnormal
lack Of rainfall during the past three
weeks and a half.
Usually at this season Of the year
storms prevail as the "sun crosses the
line," in other words, at the equinox.
But this year the autumnal equinox
has come and gone without any dis
turbance in this region, and the low
state Of the water round about is the
consequence Of this unusual condition.
The presages of hard winter are
now to he heard. Indeed, rarely does
the frost time approach without pes
simistic outgivings on the score Of the
intensity OF the season to come. Goose
bone prophets are to be heard moan
ing the future. This year the prophecy
Of hard winter Is the gloomier be.
cause Of the coal situation. Perhaps
the avera ge Of prophetic accuracy will
be no higher than ordinary this sea-
son. and there is no occasion for anx-
iety.

The President in the Campaign.


There will probably be no attempt
in the campaign to misrepresent the
President. Any such attempt would
inevitably fail. His views on the lead
ing issues arc clear beyond contro-
versy.
He not only signed the tariff bill
promptly. but praised it. He did not
dictate 1t. Whether the measure was
all he desired Is not known. But recog-
nizing the fact that the first say was
with Congress, he held of until Con-
gress had spoken, and then he spoke.
The new law is satisfactory to him.
. His veto Of the bonus bill was a well
reasoned deliverance, and the act was
one Of genuine courage. It was no sur.
prise. Congress had known Of his at
titude In the premises for some time,
and sent the bfll to him expecting the
reception it met with. His reply
showed neither hesitation nor indi.
rection.
His championship Of the ship sub
sidy bill is ardent and untiring. He
wants America to become one Of the
leading ocean carriers, and American
products delivered to Americas for.
eign customers in American bottoms.
He was disappointed at the delay on
Capitol Hill. but not discoura ged; He

that the regular short session will ar
ford time enough for disposing of the
supply bills, and that they will be
ready when the House is ready. They
must originate in that body.
The chairman says:
In any event, whether there is a
special early session or not, the ap-
preparation measures will be ready
for the House, and there Is no reason
why Congress should not get away by
March 4.
Congress must "get away by March
f." It's commission expires that day.
There will be time enough at the
regular session to dispose of the sup.
ply bills in good order If the time is
used distinctly to that end. Those bills
have grown to be complicated, and
now carry enormous sums of money.
Uncle Sam is conducting, and should
adequately provide for. large estab-
lishment.' Still. as has often been
shown, Congress. when it gets down
to it's knitting can transact good
deal Of business in a short time.
The danger will lie in the manipu-
lating of the supply bills to retard or
advance other bills, creating jam as
the end of the session approaches, and
causing injury to all bills pending.
This is not to be expected Of Chair
man Madden, who, we may all be sure.
will labor for a fair and open getaway.
But the opportunity will be present,
and others may improve it.
As The Star suggested the other
day. a month added to the short ses-
sion-a fortnight by means of spe-
cial session, and 4 fortnight by can
ceiling the usual Christmas holiday
would come in well.

A FRIEND Of mine who considers

what happened. After the out-of-

assigned to his room he was conduct
ed to the place where he was to
spend the night. The bellboy. with
the usual flourish, opened wide the
door. The patron upon entering ar
rested the progress of the bell hop to-
ward the window. saying: mo. you

Just for the novelty of it." He got
his tip.
WHILE coming down F street the
w other afternoon, 1 happened to
notice a rather diminutive woman,
one of those ninety y-eight-pounders
who, according to fiction, generally

engaged in manipulating the crank of

Challenging the Ku Kluxl

The ku Klux Klan is now under di-
rect challenge, and 1t is to be hoped
the challenge spreads and puts the Or
ganization definitely out Of business.
In Texas the opponents OF the khan.
accusing the democratic nominee for
United States senator Of being In SYM
pathy with 1t and representing it in
his candidacy, have put up a candi-
date, a democrat, against him, and this
independent Is to receive, in addition
to the support Of Independent demo-
Gratis, the solid support Of the repub-
licans Of the state. who are well or
ganized and have votes to deliver. The
movement may not succeed on this
first trial-Texas has for years been
rigidly regular" in politics-but the
step shows courage and is in the right
direction.
In Georgia, the headquarters Of the
khan, Gov. Hardwick. standing for re-
nomination. took his political life in
his hands and lost it in the interests
of open as against secret government.
He declared, not for the disbandment
Of the organization. but for the un-
masking Of its members. He may rise
again. He deserves to.

the Protestant Episcopal Church,
