NEWSPAPERS AND CRIME.
Three thousand years ago the wi^e
men of the world were moralizing on
the futility <>f crime and the fate of tlie
criminal. They pointed out in words
which live today the danger and de-
struction which awaited the wicked.
Job and David and Solomon and Soe
rates and Plato and Confucius and
many others were continually sending
out warnings agains; the men who vio-
lated the laws of gods and men, and
pointing out the miserable Sate which
awaited those who dared all and set
themselves up against civiliaztion. It
is pitable that in this day and genera-
tion, with civiliaztion so diffused, with
education at the beck of all, and with
culture surrounding all society, there
should be constantly found those who
become social anarchists and run a
brief gamut of crime, only to ?nvl in
death.
T!ie newspapers of the day are con-
stant in their efforts to make all these
crimes public. There is a set of social
philosophers who seem to think this
is against the best interests of society.
The truth is that crime is proportion-
ately diminishing, and that the crimi-
nal fears not the moral law or the
constituted authorities one-half so
much as the sleepless eye « f tfre news-
papers, which never cease in their ef-
forts to detect and report crime and
to bring the criminals to justice. One
can scarcely contemplate what would
be society today without the aid ^of
TTu- newspapers in establishing law and
social order.
This is our answer to many corn *,
pondents who have complaint I in re
cent weeks that too mucti space is ti.
votfkl to tlie criminal affairs of the
community. Unless the newspapers
stood guard, tlie police fone wotill
have to be quintupled, ami even then
then results be far from as goo:l as they
are at present —Cleveland Plain Deal
