The sensation- al disclosures in connection with the Rosenthal murder do not reflect par- tieular credit upon the police depart- ment of New York City and it is not surprising that the citizens, or , at Jeast the better class, are thorough- t Yy aroused by the scandal. If anything was needed completely to undermine pubiie confidence in the police org3- ization of the city, the Rosenthal mur-j der cose bas more than supplied what was lacking. It has been stated re-jin vected y by men of bith sicndicg in the community that the police ocg n- ization of the city is in league with the criminal elements, giving them protection 2 return for blackmail contributions; but the optimists, which always constitute a majority of the citizens were inclined to believe . that these grave accusations were groundless or at least large exagger- ated. The statements of some of the implicated witnesses in the Rosenthal ase, however, not only confirm the fccusations against the police, but disclose a condition of almost urve- Mevable corruption permeating the entire potice organization. Of course, hat does not mean that every mem- ber of the police force is corrupt and a grafter; but it may easily be under- stood that the corruption which un- and Utaer pro itable, epue , RED The Industrial Suburb of Medicine Hat FOUR LARGE FACTORIES More Factories are Com ARE IN OPERATION: And making Redcliff famous as the de building products centre da.

It appears from the disclosures of in the Rosenthal marder case that the-gamblere and keepers of disreputable resorts of this city have annually paid from 2,500,- 06 to 3,000,000 to the police and cer- tan high officials in league with the corrupt police officials. 1e and there is other correberative evidence to support these statements +1e business of the zambling houses eeai Tesorts m New York must be flourishing and extremely The enormous sum paid vlackmail for protection, reasonable to assume, constitutes on- ly 2 small percentage of the ill-got- ten gains of the keepers of these re- sorte, These gains in the aggreggate, a sum times as great, are derived from the countless victims who are every year in the gambling houses and other low. resorts of the city. Con- sideriag the dishonest methods em- ployec by the gambling and hells of New York City, Monte Carlo would seem, in comparison, stitu'ton of high moral character. How desperate the criminal element in this city is in this present crisis, is demonstrated by the fact that within a few-days after James Verella,, proprietor of an Italian cafe, closed the rtain witnesses chiding place Frank: COMING TO MEDICINE HAT.

The fate of Verella is likely to have a deterring influence w upon the willlngness of important e: wittnesses in this case. - s For several Sundays the police all over the city have made wholesale arrests of men and boys who were h found playing baseball on the Sab- bath. The magistrates, however, de- clded in every case that the mere f playing of ball on Sunday constituted no violation of the Sunday law so long as no admission was charged to spectators. In-several. cases. where programmes were sold on the grounds the men selling the programmes were adjudged guilty of violating the Sun- day laws and fined. The amateur baseball players throughout the city are highly elated over the attitude of the magistrates, but it is expected that some of the straight-laced church people wil :epel against these de- cisions and will try to bring the matter before some higher court.

Rosie Goldberg, a Jewish girl of the same nationality. short time 2g0 he applied to the Supreme Court for annulment of his marriage, basing his request upon singular claim, unprecedented in the annals of American courts. He claim- ed that Rosle had married him under false pretenses and that at the time of his marriage he had not known that Rosie was deat and dumb. This claim seems utterly absurd, yet'there Is red son to believe that the man really was not aware of the physical defects of Rosie at the time he married her. The marriage Was arranged according to hig statement, while he was still tn Russia, He married the girl immedi- ately after his arrival in New York and, a3 he had been informed that the girl could not speak Russian and he could not speak English, he afd not become aware of the fact that the girl was deaf and-dumb until some time after they had been married. an interesting history is connected with the final settlement of a will case by which the Zion society of New York fell heir to more than, 1,000,000 from the estate of William Nixon, who died in 1905 in the Ad laide hospital, Dublin, Ireland, While engaged in the furnishing and clothing business Nixon found his keenest competitors, among the Jewish merchants, but there were the kindliest relations be- tween them. The friendship went 80 far, that when Nixon became finan- cially Involved these competitors came to the rescue of his enterprise and Pa stectes Sestasin teteets Ro-esiie sfo-ate-efoete-sfo-sgesteee-eioegr srs the Zion society of Ne fective pupils is being taught. xperiment has been tried in Stock- nexed to the United States, and If Svante Arrhenius, a noted physicist, with remarkable success, The electri- wir awe Seatestestests sto stode Sree mesleseatectesteateetyosteatetess York city. th When the new school term begins the board of education of this city * ill be asked to permit a trial of the le xperiment of electrifying one of the for chool rooms in which a class of de- This ANNEXATION SPECTRE Says Quebec Would Enjoy More Extensive Autono- my In American Union.

In an article on the Spectre of Annexation, in the Devoir, Mr. Henri Bourassa deals with The Province of Quebec and Its Privileges. The constitutional position of Que- bee, he says is not different from that of the other provinces of the con- federation. Its autonomy, the author- ity of its legislature, the jurisdiction fF its courts-are exactly those of the other provinces of the east and of British Columbia, except, that the English-Protestant minorit possesses certain additional guarantees of ous than the Anglo-Saxons in Quebec guage of the province. can Union which of the rights, pri- vileges, usages, customs, laws, codes feation is produced by a series of and charters which exist today in this imbedded in the walls of the province would be abrogated, lessened class room and through which. high or modified in the least degree? frequency currentsare permitted to pass, tt-te-pianned-to kere twosehs * rooms, one: electrified,-the other not, and both containing the same number of pupils of practically the same de- gree of deficiericy..
