The government is poor, it is harass-
ed with many weighty questions be-
sides the means Of defense against
cholera. Yet it has found time to enter
upon crusade against the fair sex, and
it finds the ladies harder to deal with
than the car himself During the pres
ent month, when all moslems observe
the fast of Ramazan, those who can
afford it lie abed through the heat oil
the day. By night, however, the city
is all astir. From 10 o'clock until mid
night all the Turkish ladies who can
find carriages take their drive through
the most fashionable squares. The
jam in such places is tremendous. One
night the chief of police was promcnad-
Ing in search of evils to be cured, and
he observed these great lines OF carri-
ages full Of ladies passing along under
the eyes of the young men of the city
standing on either side Of the roadway.
And then he saw, to his horror, ladies
lean forward and smile at the young
men, and even wave handkerchiefs from
carriage windows. He saw hsndker.
chiefs dropped from the carriages, by
accident, and he was morally certain
that the young men who politely hand.
ed them back to their owners delayed
long enough to squeeze the fair hands
that received them. All these thing;
were gall and NORWOOD to the ole
gentleman. Tho next day an order was
posted though the city prohibiting ladies
from driving after nightfall. This o
course raised = storm which is not ye'
appeased. 1t has drawn out the start
ling and reasonable claim from some
of the ladies that they have equal right'
and privileges with the men! 1t is o
course to be expected that the Turkish
ladies will win in this matter, in spit,
of police and the fact that Turkish
dictionaries do not admit such q wore
as Irritation. - Constantinoph.

Murders and Executions.

In an editorial in the April Century,,
entitled "Mob or Magistrate the fol-
lowing comparison is made between
murder and the application of justice:
"Over against the fifteen hundred
murders of the last year, we have tie
report of barely ninety-three legal exc
cutions. Many of these must have
been cases in which the crime had been
committed during 1882, while many OF
the criminals of 1883 had not yet been
brought to trial. 1t is not, however,
far from the truth to say that, while
thirteen or fourteen hundred murders
are committed in this country every
year, fewer than hundred OF the MUIR
derers suffer the extreme penalty OF the
law. When the willful slayer knows
that he has thirteen chances out OF
fourteen of escaping the full pentalty OF
the law, the deterrent influence of pun
ishment cannot be said to very power
ful, The small number Of muir
derers hanged by the sheritis, and the
greater number hanged by the mobs,
should be evidence enough that the
administration of our criminal courts
in many quarters is fatally Detective
and needs reforming. The only classes
of persons interested in maintaining the
present state of things are the criminals
and the criminal lawyers and it is not
for their exclusive benefits that society
is organized. The contrast between
the swift. firm, and sure methods OF
English and Continental courts in deal
ing with great criminals, and the
tardy, feeble, and abortive methods OF
our own, should sting our national
pride to some energetic measures OF
reform. The people must rouse them
selves to demand more vigorous en-
forcement of the laws, and they must
see to it that judges and prosecuting
attorneys are chosen who have the
ability and the will to bring evil-doers
to Justice. The judges on the bench
may well inquire whether the protec.
ton Of the criminal has not assumed
disproportionate Importance in our
criminal procedure. If, in our tear
an innocent man may suffer, the law
itself, which is the only protection o.
innocent men, become utterly paralyz-
cd, then there is a call for revision
of our methods and our maxims, anc
the infusion of new spirit into oui
laws. Every Judge who will brusf
aside the hair-splittihg devices OF th'
lawyers, and insist that criminal trial
shall be conducted with rigor and dl
rectness of purpose, will deserve, an'
will be likely to win, the approval o
his fellow-citizens."

cd didn't like farming, and so one
day asked my father to allow me TO go

fifteen miles distant for home. He re-

WASHINGTON LETTER.
,,.. ~ n March %. 'Si

Washington, D. c., March o. "a
There is much interest on all sides
to know just what position the majority
in the House will take on the Morrison
Tariff bill, and for two weeks past the
question has been earnestly discussed,
among Democrats, whether it should
be made party matter and sanctioned
by caucus action. Beyond all question
a large majority of Democratic KEEP
resentatives are in favor OF the bill,
and If n caucus is held it will be adopt
cd But Mr.. Randall and some others
are not disposed to be bound by such
action, if taken. Efforts have been
made to arrive at an understanding,
but, as yet, none has been effeeted'-
Il 10 unfortunate that a united front
cannot be present and harmonious
action secured. In view of the clrcnm-
stances it seems unfortunate that the
question should have come up at tins
time We, it is now the leading q"es-
ton in our politics and one that must
be met sooner or later. Nothing can be
gained by IL policy of lodging and
cowardice. If the Democratic masses
are for tariff reform, as they undouot-
edly are, the party in Congress can DO
no less than show the courage OF their
convictions and stand or fall by the
position taken. The policy OF having
no policy and of standing round walt
ing for something to turn up, running
for cover every time anything happens
is not lofty or winning business tor
any party. l.
