If the New Jersey authorities had cleaned out the anarchist nest at Paterson when King Humbert was murdered by an- emissary from there, the country might have been spared its sorrow of today.

The Monon news last week published a half-tone cut of the tine new school building at that place which after many trials and tribulations is completed. The building is of brick, 103x101 feet, resting upon a solid rock foundation, and has a 7-foot basement with cement floor. The tower is 84 feet in height. The interior finish is red oak, hard oiled, and floor of hard maple. There are 15 rooms, 25x32 feet, 6 large cloak rooms, and an assembly hall, 37xfi2 feet. The building is heated by steam and is one of the finest and most commodious school buildings in this part of the state. While rather an expensive school building for a town no larger than Monon its cost is interesting when compared with our new court house and the fact that it was built when building material was much higher-priced than at the time our court house was erected. This magnificent building, of two stories and basement, all complete with cement walks, etc., etc., cost in round numbers $21,000; our court house cost $175,000.

While anarchy and the formation of societies which have for their object the overthrow government should be promptly suppressed wherever and whenever found, even these precautions will hardly put a stop to the assassination of rulers by murderous fanatics, if the history of the past is any criterion. During the nineteenth century there was hardly a country on the face of the globe that did not have one or more rulers foully murdered. Sometimes the assassans were men of low type of humanity and sometimes they were persons of high standing and intellectual attainments. Had attempts at assassination proved successful, hardly a month would have gone by without some ruler having been killed. The United States has lost three presidents by the hand of an assassin in the past 30 years. Neither Lincoln or Garfield were assassinated by an anarchist, and it would seem that the greatest protection that can be had for the safety of our chief executives is to surround their persons with a strong body guard at all times. The most prominent political assassination this country has seen in recent years at least, was that of Governor Goebel of Kentucky, who was shot down in cold blood less than two years ago, and to the everlasting disgrace of Indiana, hisalleged murderers were protected and harbored by the republican governor of this state. The exalted positions of rulers makes them the objects assassins, and it has always been thus. It is one of the penalties of greatness.
