-Lsstse Hope for tae Prisoner.

The Supreme Court of the District of Columbia is report ed to have come to a unani- nous opinion confirming the action Of the court which tried Guiteau If this report is yer filed, the only hope of the pris- oner will be from Executive clemency. The Court in bank has disposed, let us hope, defaitely with some law points that ought never to have re- cei7ed consideration. The proposition that the assassin could not be tried for murder in the District of Columbia, because his victim died in New Jersey, would, if sustained, open way of escape for many criminals whose guilt is clear ly established. The Court holds that, under the provis- ions of the law, when a crime is begun in one and completed in another district, the offence 
 is complete in either. It is the business of lawyers to raise these technical points, but questions that have been settled
 in enc way as often as this
 should be accepted as a fnahty.
 In this case, American justice
 has taken a much slower move
 ment than English justice would have taken had a similar offence been committed OF
 English soil; but the end Is likely to be tue same The paculiarities of conduct notice able in Guiteau, from the time of his arrest, made 1t necessary
 to convince the jury and the people that he was and IS a re sponsible person. The per
 sistence and confidence witt which he claims to have acted
 under inspiration are by nc
 means uncommon. In the
 commonest affairs of life, mer
 and women of unquestioned
 sagacity are actuated by a sim liar belief in regard to them selves. If the Supreme Court opinion is announced to-day as expected, Guiteau will haFt made his last appearance Ii ] public. The sentence is tha- ] he shall be hanged in the jail 1T 1 the District of Columbia, on the ] 3Oth of June, two days before the expiration of year since
 his crime was committed.-[ $ F. Call.

It is stated that California
 hss nearly as many native Irish in it's population as 1t has Chi nese. The Chinese number 73, ,548 as against 197,676 for eign born people from other kcountries, and 57l,82O Amer
 eans. An excellent way for the Californians to begin the Suppression of the Chinese would be to dismiss their Chi nese servants, and refuse pat ronaGe to Chinese merchants. Itlooks very much like hypoc- Tisy for the capitalists of the slope to howl against the Chi nese infux, while reaping the benefit of the cheap labor which they employ, to the det- riment of people of other na- tionalities.

 intend making it so.
 Judge French yesterday imposed sentence on several evil doers. who go to Yuma for terms of years as follows: Chas. Anderson, 4 years; Otto ". Anderson, years; Jeff Princelow, years. These are the miscreants that hung youth for the larceny of $90; and the gallcws would have been the proper punish ment. John Grass, also a murderer, was only convicted of mansIaughter and goes to Yuma for four years. Kemp c. Crooks, grand larceny, two and a half years. John Stokes, John Duncan and Charles Fu!Isr, each 5 years for highway robbery. These last are the men who have been operating in the>neighhorhood | of the A. & P. F. R.. and robbed | some ieamsters, but when they up dertOOk to rob some masons were themselves taken in ard are TOW done for in good shape. John Lay don is on trial today before Judge French, and jury, for the kill ,ng of John Lee, Tn Devils Canyon. last winter It seems that Lee and Lay 1on were playing poker and Lee won Laydon's money. Laydon ac- used Lee of cheating, and finally he money was returned to Laydon, liter which Lee and another man vent on playing. Laydon stepped ID behind Lee and told him 10 hold f p hIs hands, bnt Lee thinking 1t T. nly fooling refused to do so, when f, ,aydon put pistol to his head and Il filed him instantly.

Protection.
bath Times.1

Passing along our streets, one may any day
see 10 front Of the dry goods stores, shirts tick
eted fifty cents" that Isl one dollar pair
1t was but week or. two ago that we were
reading in Wheeler's "History of Brunswick
Topsham and Harpswell,' that century ago
pair of shirts cost a laboring man half month i
work
The statement, extravagant as it may seem
to some of us, is really no exaggeration Cotton
cloth was sixty cents yard, imported, it was
and not better in quality than that of the fifty
cent shirt of to-day. The wages of laborer on
Alarm, less than half century ago, was six to
eight dollars a month for six months or ten
dollars month through the hayiDg season
Eight dollars a month is fraction short Of
thirty-one cents a day. Two days work for a
yard of this thin, slazy, English cotton cloth
To-day pair Of better shirts is but the price Of
single half-days work.
What has wrought such revolution in the
relation bstween labor and shirts? Protection.
mat is the whole answer; and while any use
cited may be an extreme one, it aptly Illus
trates the whoie question. Theorists tell us and
interested parties seize upon and fondle the
ldea, tnat protection upon given article is q
TAX upon the whole country for the mere bene-
ut OF the producers of that article. Granted
there may be instances of sncn workings, still
1t IS not true as rule. Protection does not
wash one hand at the expense of the other; it
washes both hands; it increases the wages oil
the laborer, and it lessons to the consumer the
cost of the products of labor. This lie abun.
dainty shown throughout the entire history of
the country, and the finely spun periods Of a
college professors theories cannot change the
record nor obliterate the facts.
Among actual business men and intelligent
citizens generally, there is no such wide differ
ence of opinion as the earnest discussion in the
papers seems to imply Protectionists agree
tina a revision of the tariff and reduction of
duties is called for; free traders will find II
very difficult indeed, when it comes to formu-
lating their theories into actual law, to steer
clear of the protection principle. The business
interests OF the country are more potent than
scientific" theories, and will inevitably con-
troll all tariff legislation.

BOYS are so plenty and cheap in Pennsyl-
vania that their whereabouts is not matter
Of great concern to their proprietols. One
was killed at Johnstown July s, and the
coroner's jury ascertained that it was John
Sicily. So John Sicily was buried and had
stayed buried a week when Mr.. Woodhead
of Bristol unburied him, identified him as
his little Willie, and buried him in Bristol.
Just then his little Willie appeared alive and
well and Mr.. Seaburn of Sharon claimed the
body as that of his Eddie, took Eddie to
Sharon aud laid him in the cemetery. At
this point Mr.. Levi Daniels of To wanda
insisted that his frankie slept in the grave
provided by Mr.. Seaburn, and the boy was
again taken out, and proved to be the son of
Mr.. Daniels. Before he was again buried,
however, Mrs Caroline Kolb of Cleveland
put in an appearance and wanted the caskev
as it contained her son Wilhelm who had
been missing since June, and whose inden-
tity she proved by certain marks upon the
body of the much-claimed boy. As seven
cities claimed the Homer dead, through
which the living Homer begged his bread, SO
this boy killed at Johnstown, Pa, who had
no enc to care for him while living, comes
to the front as a child of the people, now
that he is dead.
