In the hustle of business activity we are prone to forget temporarily
those sacred memories On which have been builded the ideals of the Ameri-

A NEEDLESS TRAGEDY

4 tragedy that should never have
happened was the death OF officer Lew
Maddy OF Hinton. who was fatally shot
by John Fredeking. an Insane man.
while he was taking the maniac into
custody TO return HON to the Spencer
asylum. Predicting was sent to the
asylum once. after having been ad-
Judged insane. but was released after
he had been there a while. and per
mlsted 70 go back home. Since that
tirnA II Is said. his insanity gradually
became more marked until the final out
break.
No doubt the physicians at the
asylum believed Fredeking's condition
was such as TO warrant his release but
he should at least have been kept
under some sort OF observation. A man
with his type Of insanity IS always more
o. less dangerous. When he began TO
show symptoms of relapse. he should
have been given into custody immedL-
ately. Instead. ne was permitted to
roam at large. with access TO firearms
and the killing OF good citizen was
the result The law throws a special
protection around the insane. which Is
right and proper. but II should also be
very careful TO protect the general
pubIi, from these unfOrtunates.
