" " - 1 " ''The trouble in Ireland bas assumed a new and extremely ticklish phase, The British government has been dispatching troops to the island, in pursuance of ita plan to eope with Sinn Fein activities, and has been making large shipments of ammunition as well. Recently the Irish .members of the railway union, which embraces all portions of the United Kingdom and Ireland, have stoutly opposed this British program. .A threat to tie up the transportation of troops and Supplies was followed by a conference with Lloyd George, at which tho premier flatly refused to alter tho British military arrangement. Two courses are left open to tho premier in event that the railway men carry out their announced determination to refuse to handle troop and ammunition trains. One is to close down the Irish railways; the other te operate them . by tho military. AH railronds in the United Kingdom and Ireland being under government control a war measuro still continued either course is available. But either would be fraught with serious difficulties. Completo business paralysis would await on the one, possible eivil wtr on tho other. The premiers announcement that he is willing to meet representatives of the Sinn Fein element in a eonferenco deigned to compose the wide differences between the government and l this Irish movement leadt to the hope that a way will bo found to bridge the gap. But it is obvious that Great Britain ia traveling at tremendous pace to a climax in tho always disturbing Irish problem. Without limiting the selection to unctions whieh engaged in war, Herr 6chmitt advocates placing the entire problem in the hands of a directorate consisting of five or not more than ' seven big internationalists who are . willing and able to give their entiie to the task for a long period. , time This directorate, he said, should cremate an advisory council ns bjg as necessary, which would give it the full Itruth of the world eituation and it to bring adequate pressure .upon all nations whose action is neces-aary to carry out the immense scheme .of rebuilding the ruins left by the .g war.

DETROIT'S GROWTH. Borne months ago a Detroit editor made tho prediction that the 1920 census would show the city of the straits to homo a million people. He was hooted by the editors in Cleve- land, who. believed it out ,of the question that Detroit should climb to position threatening even Philadelphia. The figures, Jhe Ohioans said, doubtjsss would show Detroit toviie trailing after the Buckeye metropolis. The figures have been announced. They reveal no amazing growth for Henry Ford's home city. The increase in population has been greater than (hat for Chicago and second only to that of New York. Passing Boston, St. Louis and other rivals, Detroit goes into fourth place among American municipalities, with the prospect that another decade perhaps less time will find it nosing Philadelphia out of third position. Pittsburg, once a rival, is hopelessly displaced. It is really a remarkable achievement. With announcement of tho population of Cleveland and Detroit, tho definite ranking of the country's eighteen largest cities has been established. - Jfbw York and Chicago re main first and second largest cities, respgetively. Philadelphia is the only one of the eighteen whose 1920 population has not been announced, but it is not likely at all that the Pennsylvania citys rank as third largest in the country will be, changed. Detroit had jumped into fourth place and Cleveland Into fifth position, forcing St. Louis into sixth, Boston into seventh, Baltimore into eighth and Pittsburg into ninth place. Los Angeles, with the largest rate of growth, advanced from seventeenth in rank to tenth and displaced Buffalo, as well as attaining the honor of being the largest city west of 8t. Louis. San Francisco retained eleventh rank and Buffalo dropped from tenth to twelfth, while Milwaukee was forced into thirteenth place. Washington, D. C., moved from sixteenth to fourteenth position, displacing Newark, N. J., which dropped into fifteenth position. Cincinnati, thirteenth largest city in 1910, now ranks ar sixteenth. New Orleans, through io advance of Los Angeles and Washington, was forced from fifteenth rank to seventeenth position, while Minneapolis retains its rank as eighteenth largest city. ELEGANT BUMS." c. Starkey, an official of the Illinois state employment bureau, estiW. mates that in Chicago every Monday morning 25,000 men appear for work. They are what he terms elegant bums. They demand day work and refute any job that does not pay off at least once a week most of them demand payment every day. Starkey esyg these are the same men wbe, only a few years ago, were styled bums. There was no elegance plain about them then, and they were just hoboes. The closing of saloons is accounted responsible for the regenof the old time vagabond. eration The regeneration,' it is true, is not complete, but it can be reckoned from 23 to 35 per cent complete. The modern-da- y bum wears a white eollar and bas deserted the ?flop houses, but, according to Starkeys estimate, he is bum. the same old r On Monday and Tuesday mornings, in Chicago, says the employment official, these job shoppers come to listen to what the bnreau has to offer.

A Line o' Type or Two ' ' - 1 I WASHINGTON. June 20. A comparatively new angle to the question of cap- -' lul punishment Is brought up apropos of a murder caee being tried In this city.

When the child wae two years old ths father put gloves on him and taught him to box. By the tun he was ten years old he wss the terror of the neighborhood, until he landed in a reformatory. There, he proved to ba (he best worker In the Institution; In fact, aha was so adept that tha contractor who handled the prison ktbor put him ok his pay roll at seven dollars a day after lie waa released Now this skilled workman has killed two heads ef families, and the stale Is, very likely, going to kill him as ths easiest vtfay of getting rid of him. The committee on prisons says that this is economically wrong, and that what the district .should do la to put the boy to work In prison, and send his earnings to help support the two families he has made destitute. This, It Is claimed, would be a nearer approach to justice, and at (he same time the boy would have a channe to reform. The committee logically reminds you that you cannot reform a man after he te da a. COST Of KILLING A MAN. Improving the economice of penology Is net altogether a new proposal, but It Is only lately beirig seriously stressed. It la now shown that It coats a state from one thousand to elgnt thousand dollars to kill a prisoner. New Tork prison officials have estimated that it wilt take practically 8790 a month to maintain a condemned wOrhan now at Sing Sing, because there must, be three keepers and three matrons as a death watrh, and usually the prisoner la kept In the death house some ten months before execution. On the other hand, it costa leas than on dollar a day to maintain a regular cofivlet, and the convict's earning power In rela considerably more than this. cent years, contractors have been given the use of prison labor, usually at great profit to themselves, and little or' no profit to either the laborers or the state. To give two centa a day to a convict for hard labor, when he has left a dependent family of his own or mad a dependent family by his crime, la obvious exploitation and does not tend to increase ths convicts confidence in the state's intelligence. But progress In prison administration Is more difficult to achieve than In almost any other line of government. Any raproposed advance from barbarous tfl tional methods Is rrled down as sentiYouve got to make prison life mental hard and use the rtbbet to keep crime down. la the objection to any change. So deep rooted la this idea that In Ore-tli- e death penalty was recently re- ed after having been abolished for amendseveral years by constitutional ment. Popular eenttment, more or less In of the demanded this. spite engineered, fact that fewer murders occurred without the death penalty than when It was enforced. WEAN OF DEATH NO .DETERRENT If the prospect of death was os strong a deterrent from crime os pple think, tiien hanging would be both effective and ethical. But statistics show that there vis less murder where the government considers life sacred than where the state seta the example of dealing lightly with it. Is most strongly Capital punishment supported by the honest citizen who prides himself on the record that he knows nothing about crime and never spoke to a 'jailbird in his life. Persona familiar with actual prison conditions are practically unanimous In denouncing execution as unworthy of any civilized state. Prison executions., they say, are always brutal. We think of hanging with a shudder, but most of us regard the elec-trl- o chair os the product of a refined civilization and an Instrument of Instant death. Aa a matter df fact. It la Impos-sibl- e to tell how strong a current will bo needed to kill an Individual. Some prisoners have to have the current put through them five or six times, with tha result that they are practically burned to death. We ere further told by persons who know, that an execution always has a disastrous effect on the morale of a prison. EAri Dudding. president of the Prisoners' Relief association, who was four years in a state penitentiary, says that fourteen hangings occurred during hia term, and that Instead of turning the minds of the other convicts to thoughts of a hereafter and resolutions to reform, a pending execution always put the entire prison Into a state of tension in which the slightest opportunity would be seized to Itart a riot. According to Dr. Dudding. convicts have to be kept locked In their eells for a week or more preceding a death. They are depreseed and nervous, end cause more trouble to the authorities than at any other time. PRISONERS WITNESSED EXECUTION This condition of lowered morale at tuch times was shown 'at Joliet prison a few weeks ago, when Sheriff Pters instated on 200 prisoners watching a hangTh psychological effect. ing for-lheffect Which tha gruesome . sight had an the unwilling audience was te arouse 'it to Indignation. .It showed its contempt for Sheriff Peters and tha whole business by whistling end chanting When do we eatf end refusing to shed ths expected tears of repentance. The opinions of prisoners on ths death sentence are especially interesting, because ea a rule they take a matter-of-faand singularly - detached viewpoint. Th typical prisoners attitude la pretty well dimmed up in a current lasue of the Sing Bing Bulletin by a convict who save that when a man is crazed with drink or blind with pdseion he ie seldom conscious of what he Is doing, and that K the elec-tri- e chair were before his eyes it would net stay the impulse to kllL He ends his plea for a national law against the death penalty by saying: ' The only, enduring punishment la to send the culprit to prison and keep him there until he has worked out hia redemption.
