MARCH 11, 1904 siccaiainds —_——— PRIDAY 0.. 2 ceccecesccces ecevesccees _ FOR VICE PRESIDENT HE Republicans are talking of Senator Fairbanks of Indiana for second place on the Presidential ticket. The first place, by general consent, is conceded to Roosevelt. Fairbanks, coming from Indiana, represents the Middle West, and the completed ticket is calculated to satisfy the two most influential-parts of the country. Since anarehists and other murderous fanatics have made America their refuge, greater care than ever must be taken in the selection of a Vice President. Formerly only the natural death of the President had to be considered and as this has occurred but twice in‘the history of the country it was not a prominent factor. The man selected for the second place 6n the ticket was regarded as of comparatively little im"portance and was selected more as a compliment to some particular part of the country than with any belief that his services would ever be needed at the head of the government. But this condition unfortunately no longer exists. Three Presidents have been murdered within fifty years, and attempts are so common now as hardly to cause comment. The President is constantly surrounded by a bodyguard of detectives and travels with almost as many precautions as the Czarof Russia. Under these changed conditions it becomes necessary to consider possibilities and to select for the Vice-Presidency a man who would be able to properly fill the office of chief executive if called upon to doso. Four years ago, when Roosevelt was suggested for the second place, there seemed little prospect that he would so soon move into the White House. Senator Fairbanks has not been as long in public life as some of his colleagues, but he has had considerable experi. ence during the seven years that he has been in the Senate. Prior to his election in 1897 he had never held office. He had, however, acted prominently as delegate in national conventions and had represented the United States Government asamember of a joint American and British convention \:hich met in Quebec to discuss Canadian affairs. Should he zver become President his knowledge of law would prevent him becoming as aggressive as Roosevelt and his knowledge of political methods would save him from some of the pitfalls into which Roosevelt has fallen. As a running mate for Roosevelt he would be accepted, but it is doubtful if he posSesses the qualities which would make him a good President. e >? PRPRHe BPH 4 POLICE THEORY HE workings of the police theory in murder cases are i; having an airing in San Francisco, Joseph Buttgenbach, an aged pork packer, was killed in his place of business late at night, his son and bookkeeper being present at the time. They said the killing was done by two masked footpads who attempted to hold up the establishment but ran away after the shooting. Because no one had seen the alleged footpads leave the building, the police jumped at the conclusion that the murder had been committed by the son and bookkeeper, and they were accordingly arrested. ‘The prisoners were “sweated” in the effort to force them to make incriminating admissions. This was peculiarly atrocious under the circumstances. No motive’ appeared for the son’s assumed murder of his father, but the police energetically set to work to establish a motive. Having formed a theory, the police are determined to substantiate it It is the theory that must now be sustained. Who committed the murder is a minor proposition. Punishing the actual criminal is a side issue. The infallibility of police intuition must be vindicated. If young Buttgenbach did not commit the murder, no one else did, and if no evidence can be found to implicate him, the facts must be twisted around to give that impression. There the matter is to rest, with the crime unpunished and a cloud on.the young man for the rest of his life. So much for police theory in practice, says the Oakland Tribune. ee Midvale Steel. ‘ Embroidery Lessons Lightner Mining Company, SuperGiven on Monday and Friday afterintendent’s office, Angels Camp, Febnoons.
