A reporter of the Baltimore
Herald has been interviewing a num-
Der Of people on the subject of Tax
ing Bachelors, and finds a great
diversity of opinions. One young
lady declared with a toss of her head
that she wouldn't marry aman that
had been taxed for being single; an
old maid, still cunning" thought
it would do no good, as the men
would just pay the tax, and 1--WE
viii still be left out in the cold; an
old bachelor thought it was the old
maids who should be lakeland so
on.
The reporter himself thinks they
ought to be taxed. There may be
legal objections, he says, to the con-
stitutionality of imposing such a
tax in Maryland, but the fairness of
II can hardly be doubted. Upon
the men with families to support
now deyolves much of the expense
incurred BY government. The houses
ID which they live are taxed, the
furniture is assessed and on all the
necessariea and lnxuries of life an
internal revenue collected. On the
other hand, the bachelor invests his
funds in untaxed securities, lives in
hired apartments and takes life as
easy as the lilies of the field that
st0il not nor spin. +" The CAPITAL
Il half Inclined to agree with the
reporter.

HoE. John S. Barbour, Virginia 5
ablest statesman, has recently in an
interview given his candid opinion
Of President Cleveland. "Heis not
among the people," says Dir. Bar
bour," nor interested enough in
other public men who have recently
come from the people. The head
Of the Government is not the place
for recluse. The tendency ef Mr..
Cleveland is to- become more and
moreunsocial and he caf only redeem
himself by mingling with persons in
the channels of affairs. He must
be like the executive of a railroad
or any other large human concern,
approachable to his equals and COM
pretending that the active laborers
and leaders of his party have as
much interest as himself in the Gov
eminent.
'The president should have taken
his Cabinet from the public centres
and currents, and not have gone to
the United States Senate and dis
placed there gentlemen who had
been Senators so long that they had
lost insensibly their close connection
with the people. The Senate some
what resembles the Supreme Court;
after man has been there period
of years, he loses identity with the
multitude and is something of a
privileged class, like a peer IN
Europe. Your Administration is
always yitalized and popular and
efficient il it receives the latest inn
preston from the crowd.
''Mr. Cleveland messages, ut
terances, and remarks are indicative
Of man who takes but little inter
est in any person or particular mat
ter. His remarks are all Of a general
character. lie treats public bust
ness somewhat as if men were a
bore to him, and he was merely
called upon in an editorial or di-
dactic way to pass comment. Since
he has been President he has given
no warm impulses or earnest sup
port to anything in particular. His
Administration is without incident
and without much feeling.

ANOTHER Proposed COMPRONlsE
EfEht-Hour Bosses Acting ~ Medinsor~
Between the Master Builders and
J00rneymen.


A movement was started last evening Mt a
Massachusetts avenue, which those who were
present hope will result I'm settling the eight
hour lockout The meeting was composed of
twelve boss carpenters who have been working
under the eight-hour rule. They proposed a
compromise, which will be submitted 10 both
the master builders and the Carpenters union.
This compromise is that nine hours shall
constitute days work until November Jst
ana that the amalgamati cards shall be dis
pensed with, but the Carpenters union shall re-
tain their own cards. The bosses present
thought eight hours not too short for a DAYS
work after November Ist a committee was
appointed to present this plan OF compromise 10
the master builders and they will probably per-
tee VIII go before the Carpenters union with
the same proposition this evening. The gen.
uemen interested think that this proposition,
coming from a third party, will be acceptable
10 ootn sides. The bosses working eight hours
are seriously affected by the lockout, because
the work is locked up In the architects offices
pending the settlement OF the existing differ
ences.
The Carpenters union is the largest body
affected by the lockout, and II is thought n set
tlement made with them would practically be
settlement of the whole question.
A MASTER PLUMBER YIELDS
AT the knights OF Labor headquarters to-day
plumbers were congratulating themselves upon
the announcement made there that Mr. James
Nolan, member of the Master Plumbers asso-
citation, had broken with his associates and
taken back his old men at eight hours.
THE BUILDERS.
The builders are going on with the work they
have on hand, although not with that rapidity
which would be the case IL the full force OF
workmen were employed. There are a great
many improvements which are awaiting the
termination Of the present struggle, and which
If begun will ensure a comparatively busy sea-
son Tor the remainder OF the year. The regular
meeting OF the master builders will be held this
evening, but IL is not expected that there will
be any business Of importance TO transact
