The Lorimer Tragedy
Michael Link, who was Indicted for perjury in the Lorimer case and turned State's evidence, was found dead yesterday. Apoplexy killed him. lie had expected death, arranged his affairs for it, warned his' friends. There can be little doubt that his connection with the scandal of Lorimer had shortened his life. It Is useless, the attempt to take a light or flippant view of this matter. It Is a ghastly tragedy of American politics. Link lies dead of it With the $2,500 that ho deposited to his credit in Chicago, Holstlaw accepted and must always feel the contempt of those who had respected him as the hanker of a little country town. White and Beckemeyer, self-confessed takers of bribes, find their avowal no Jest. Browne, who wore the blue licit stuffed with bank-bills about his waist, and Manny Abrahams, the bell-wether of the bribed, can scarcely enjoy their public prominence. Suave, smiling and cynical, the man whose triumph has cost so much anguish and shadowed so many homes still sits in the Senate. Ho was chosen in Springfield by the mysterious votes of 53 Democrats and only 48 of his own party members. In Washington 22 out of 57 Senators of his party faith voted to deprive him of his seat. That is the title by which he holds. Is it good enough In view of the new testimony brought out at Springfield for the present Senate? New York World.

(American News Service) New York, April 12. Plans of the English suffragettes to develop their muscles and place their strength on a par with a man's, received the enthusiastic endorsement in New York today. It is the plan of the women's development society, just organized in London to knock the props out from under the old denomination of women as the weaker sex. A similar AmazonIan propoganda is advocated for America. '! am heartily in accord with the Idea of stronger women," said Mrs. Sophia Locblnger, leader of the American militants today. "There are certain persons who contend that the basis of the ballot Is brawn, not brain; that it Is man's ability to fight for his country and his supposed superiority of mind that makes him the ract dictator. Of course that is ridiculous. The birth of every child represents a battle and it is a matter of record that more women have been sacrificed through maternity than men have perished on the battlefield. Women are more courageous than men. They bear pain better. "Do you think that Joan of Arc endured agony equal to the half man whose dinner was fifteen minutes late. Woman have courage and endurance
and all they need now is lessons in
scientific way to develop their mus
cle."

To the Editor: I have read with much interest the recent reports on the ventilation of our school buildings and other matters pertaining to the welfare of our children while at their daily work in our public schools, but in my estima
tion one of the most vital points has not been mentioned. Why is there not a fire escape on our high school building? This seems to me a most momentous question and one that should be given immediate consideration. It may be true that this is a "fire proof" building, but can a building be made absolutely fire proof? Again, it may be that daily drills are given to the pupils, but these are not an absolute safeguard In time of fire. We all know how apt one is to become excited at such time, and how much
more this applies to children than to adults. Think for a moment what would happen In our high school if the first floor was ablaze, cutting off the chance ; of escape through the front doors on this floor. There would certainly bo a panic, the results of which we do not want to even imagine. We have just read of a most unfortunate fire in New York City with dreadful loss of life, and God only knows how many of these poor creatures could have been saved had they the proper means of exit. Richmond cannot afford to lose any of her children. They are the flowers of our life in whom we place our greatest hopes for the future, and it Is our duty to protect them in every way. Let us have fire escapes on our school buildings, and, in particular, the high school, no matter what it costs. Levi Brown.
