Tue Dramatic Escarr of the criminal incarcerated 
at Matteawan in lieu of a sentence for murder, on last 
Sunday, ought not to blind the eyes of justice. There is 
a condemnable tendency on the part of an unthinking 
_and too sentimental public to sympathize with the indi- 
viduals upon whom the law must be executed. Does

timental public are thinking of the theatrical adventure 
rather than the meaning and significance the event has 
to the common sense of justice and righteousness. Shall 
the idea prevail in America that wealth may do anything? 
‘The situation is unique. The inmate of an asylum no 
longer has a charge of murder resting over him. He is 
an inmate of an insane hospital, at large. Extradition

The question is broader than the

Watrter H. Pace, the American ambassador to 
Great Britain has set forth his views in a national pub- 
lication. He claims that the country life problem is the 
greatest problem that now confronts the American people. 
He is both right and wrong. The city presents the great- 
est problem of modern life, but the solution of the city 
problem is the solution of the country problem.

THE Exrrapition of Charlton by Italy to stand trial 
for the alleged murder of his wife at Como in 1910 is a 
delayed triumph of justice. The ends of justice are too 
often defeated by the connivance of a crafty criminal. 
The day ought not to be far off when justice can take its 
course more quickly. International extradition ought to 
be facilitated. But. between states in the United States 
the delays that are caused are the wonder and surprise of 
Europe. There must eventually be an _ international 
agreement for speedy extradition in criminal and civil 
cases. The problem between the states is only a part of 
the larger problem that is awaiting the attention of the 
States—a uniform code of laws on all common interests.
