TWO VIEWS OF
THAW TESTIMONY
It is without any temptation to in
dulge in false prudery, or to assume ]
any undue virtue .that the Constitu- i
tion announces it will discontinue i
further publication of the testimony '
Involved in the trial in New York
of Harry K. Thaw for the murder of i
Stanford White. The recent test!- I
mony in thig case has developed the ]
fact that, expurgated or not, it is I
unfit for publication in any news
paper or periodical that circulates <
in the homes and is read at the Are- i
sides of our people. \ve cordially c
indorse the movement on foot in I
Chattanooga to hold a mass-meeting i
tomorrow at which women, and men
as well, will gather to protest against
the further publication of the testl- I
mony in this salacious case. They i
are right. L,et them pass, with one
voice, their protest against tho fur
ther desecration of the home circle
with stufT far worse than much of1
that for which many a publication
has boon barred from the use of the i
United States mails. And lot us hope *
it will be hoeded. There is no ma- *
terial difference between the details <
of the Thaw case and those of any <
umer vulgar intrigue which may be
heard from time to time before al
most any court the country over,
with the single exception that there
Is money Involved in it. Take that
away and the Thaw case would lose
every eloment of interest, even for
the prurient and morbid.
(From the Hartford Times.)
We do not harbor the notion which
a few people entertain that publica
tion of the m..ln body of the testi
mony in the Thaw case exerts a
demoralizing effect on the public.
The whole group of circumstances
of which the White tragedy wa# the
^product is repellent* rather than at
tractive. The glamor Is all gone..
What looked like the gold of enjoy
ment at the time turns out to be the
veriest dross. What poor and re
spectable toiler at a factory bench
would swap his humble place for
such a life as that of White or Thaw,
with all the money at their com
mond? What second girl in any hon
orable household would be willing to
exchange positions with the wife of
the slayer of Stanford White? Who,
knowing what a whirlwind the par
ties to the tragedy have reaped,
would care to sow the wind as they
sowed it?
Removal of the lid from this pot
of yellow morality and exposure of
the nasty mess will not damage the
public virtue, although it is likely
to turn the public stomach. The
case should inspire .wholesome dis
gust rather than unwholesome ad
miration.—Atlantic Constitution.
