HUMAN life is held entirely too cheap in
this District.
Within short time several persons have
been tried for taking the lives of their fell
low beings Two of them were acquitted
and are at large. One had his sentence of
death commuted to imprisonment for life.
Another was convicted of manslaughter
only. One murderer, whose terrible butch
cry of his wife was clearly proven, is in Jail
awaiting a new trial on mere techni-
cality.
The laws delay and their repeated es-
capes from the gallows tend to create an
impression among the dangerous classes
that hanging for murder is played out in
The District of Columbia, and Saturday
night another murder was committed here.

Ing trade. Richard Deeves, vice president of
tho Master Builders Association, said Wednes
day that tho bricklayers had selected the worst
time OF tho year 10 strike for nine hours, and
he felt sure they would not be able TO carry
their point. There was much less work being
done IN the building trade this year than last.
There were large numbers OF bricxlayers who
were going about unemployed, aud the proba-
bilities were that by September many more
would be out of work. lie himself had had
contracts for laying 20,00O,000 bricks last
year, while this year he had contracts for only
100000.
Another reason why he believed tina. tho
builders had In their contracts with property
owners inserted clause allowing them an
extension OF timo in which to finish thsir
buildings In tho event OF Interruptions by
strikes. Formerly, when builders were bound
by their contracts 10 complete their work

place upon the political integrity of each
other! Hero is the Now York Sua, edited
by that staunch old reformer, in a horn,
Charles A. Dana, proposing to buy up John
Kelly with the nomination for Mayor OF
New York city. And now comes delegate
to Chicago, No. 2, Colonel Dunphy, from
California, who says Kelly and his crowd
will support Cleveland, because he will bo
permitted to namo tho candidate for Mayor
of New York! In other words, because
Kelly and Tammany were dsfranchised at
Chicago by means of the unit rule, he and
they are to be placated in New York by
disfranchising all the Democrats of that
city and permitting Kelly, singly and alone,
to say who shall be its chief magistrate

rods away is big, strong elephant Cali to
him and he will get you out in jihy.'
After the fox had gone the donkey thus rea-
soned with himself: Il am very weak for want

much additional loss of strength. If l raise my
voice to call the elephant shall be weaker yet.
No. will not waste my substance that way. 1t

So the donkey settled himself back and even
tually starved to death

saw within it a whitening skeleton, and re
marked: IF it be true that the souls of ami
