CRIMINALS BUT NOT INSANE.
A situation is brought to light in the report of
the medical superintendent of the hospital for the
insuue at Matteawan, New Y-ork. which gives |H)int
to criticism on the administration of our criminal
law, such as former I'rawdent White of Cornell re-
cently made, and discovers weakness which may
not be easily remedied.
Dr. Lamb, the medical superintendent in question,
reports that there are at the present time in trib
Matteawan asylum at least a half dozen men com
initted by the courts us insane criminals, who are

!unci the time of examination in the hospital would
have been an impossibility.
The conclusion from the doctor's report is un-
avoidable that in a specific number of cases in the
state of New York persons guilty of crime have es-
caped the punishment due under the law by "prov-
ing'' the insanity of perfectly sane men.
Strengthening1 or changing the law would not heal
this difficulty. So long as members of a highly repu-
table and dignified profession will go into court and
testify as they are paid to testify, we see no remedy mil™t domesti^sejvice" cons,ant trcad"

Now this newspaper Is, and always has

the public schools liberally, when they
are rendering services that are worth
their compensation.
Tt is, nevertheless, undoubtd.'y true
that In many towns In many states there
are teachers employed who do not earn
and should not receive as much money
as the average servant or housemaid.
The fault is not with the teacher.

for the evil which Dr. Lamb points out.
The doctor feels that the law should authorize
him to report back to the courts that the men are
sane.
If the law were to authorize that course, the crim-
inals having once been adjudged not guilty because
of insanity could not again be put in jeopardy of
their lives for the same offense, and they must re-
main where they are, or be let loose upon the com-
munity.
Better incarceration in asylums for the insane
tliau liberty for these men. judging from the stand-
point of the community.
The law may not, in humanity, be so amended as
to provide that insanity shall not be a defense for
crime.
The laws against perjury might be strengthen-
ed so that a witness testifying falsely aa to the men-
tal condition of a respondent in court would be
dealt with severely.
That seems to be the only thing which law can
do to remedy the existing practice iu this particu-
lar.

little more than those who are taught,

OWEN ON SHOATS.
The science of husbandry received a
great impetus last week from the lips
f a distinguished statesman at Wash-
ington. Robert Latham Owen, one of
the nations most prominent agrarians,
gave lo the press an e'aborate statement
encouraging the farmers of Oklahoma to
raise hogs. The deep reverence felt by
the senior senator from the new state
for the squealing shoat must not be uiu
■derestlmated. The better portion of the
useful life of the senator has been given
over to agricultural pursuits and he ranks
as an eminent authority on all matters
thai tie close to the soil. The senator
fondly alludes to the farm which ho
owns in Washington county and directs
the attention of the dear people to it.
We in Oklahoma point with pride to our
agricultural statesman and as he glides
from Chevy Chase to the Normandle in
his handsome limousine all Oklahoma
should thrill that it Is a product of the

WIRELESS AROUND THE WORLD.
Nikola Telsa has been conducting ex-
periments at Shoreham, Long Island,
which have practically perfected a new
system of wireless telegraphy and tele-
phony. It differs from the present

mitting agency not the waves of the air,
but the inherent conductivity of the

chairman of the committee on agricul-
ture, of the house of representatives, at
Washington, replying to a request for
his active assistance in creating a na-
tional agricultural school and experiment
station on the Chilocco Indian reserva-
tion. Mr. Scott says:
realize the value that might arise
out of the development of Chilocco as
National Agricultural College; but all
the precedents are against that sort of
thing, and I doubt very much whether
it wou.'d be wise to overthrow them.
Tho government does a great deal of ex-
perimental work over the country, but
It does it through co-operation with the
states, or with individuals, and not on
Its own account. It looks to me as If
the best thing to do with your Chilocco
reservation Is to have the state take It

with it. and use it as Kansas is using the

TARRIF PEACE IS BETTER.
There were pretty good reasons all along for tak-
ing the prediction of tariff war between this country
,Vid Germany with a certain hopeful skepticism.
When thick-headed and pig-headed "leaders" iu
the senate and house brought us to the verge of such
a war a few years ago. President Roosevelt and Sec-
retary Hoot swapped views with the responsible
statesmen at Berlin and arrangements were made.
Wakeman's howls rent the welkin, lint the danger
of a commercial clash that would have been very
costly for both countries was averted.
We had the right to expect that President Taft,
his secretary of state and his tariff board would not
be less vigilant and efficient guardians id' the peace;
•nd they haven't been.
In the fiscal year 19<)H-'(lil tlermany imported
American merchandise worth $235,1124,140 and the
United States imported German merchandise worth
$143,525,828.
Each of the two countries is producing on a vast
scale, and each has in the other a star customer.
Trade war between them would be not only expen-
sive hut stupid.
President Taft'has as little liking for tariff trou-
bles with France or Canada as with Germany.
There won't be any if good will and good sense
at the White House end of Pennsylvania avenue can
prevent them.

Then the instrument clicks again and the location

That is the mission of science, to save.

These forces were placed here for our use and it

The discoveries in the uses of electricity are among

Since Franklin's time we have learned to apply it
in the creation of heat, light and power, in the trans-

ease.

him that he stole the Tom Sawyer plot, and pleads
that Mr. Clemens does not read Danish, which dis-
